I was very interested in the Apple leather 5S cases until I discovered that the plug from my Sony VR6 headphones will not fit through the case. It's a shame that Apple continues to size the headphone holes in their cases so that only Apple headphone plugs will fit.

I managed to break my BookBook case. Was very disappointed that it didn't last more than a month. I ended up buying the Apple leather case in black. I like it. I miss the functionality of having a wallet case though.

what gets me all the time is that when I take the case off of my phone, it looks so incredibly fantastic that I want to keep it off.

Rolling naked may end up costing you some $$$ if you intend on selling it.

I think if you plan to sell it, it's wise to not roll named. I am thinking about getting the spigen tough armor n maybe a decent affordable screen protector not sure which yet. I just don't wanna drop more than 38$ which I should have for that spigen deal but i missed it. :(

I have always had cases for previous iPhones and my gold iPhone 5S will most likely be cased. I may experiment with naked since I did get apple care plus. So far I bought my cases and just waiting for the phone.ImageUploadedByiMore Forums1380901066.683820.jpg

I am trying to get a gold 5s and intend on showing it as well. I heard clear cases tend to get all scratched up. Do you have any idea how to avoid this? Maybe a clear protector for front and back? Clear case?

For now i plan to get gold spigen case with screen protector.

I am using ghost armor on front and back. Same idea as Zagg different name. The clear bumper seem to be working well. No scratches. Haven't dropped it yet. Been in my hands, pocket or table top mostly. At night it's in a dock so there's nothing to worry about there.

In the case absolutely. I splurged and bought the tan leather official one for my Silver 5S. Pretty sleek I must say..

The main reason for me to use a case is for a better grip on the phone. I bought some skateboard tape (the kind that looks like black sandpaper) and cut a couple small strips and put them on the sides of my phone. It is amazingly easy to hold now. The tape works better than egrips, cost less, and is thinner. Highly recommended for anybody going naked.

Can you show us some pics of your phone?

Since I got the silver instead of the grey I bought a rubber surround with a clear back for it. Looks similar to the one apple gave out with antenna gate.
