Using an iPhone SE without a case? How is it holding up?

[Jared DiPane]

I want to use my iPhone SE (Rose Gold of course) without a case but don't want it to look dinged up and abused in a few days.

For those who are using it without a case, how is it holding up? Got some pictures? Let's see what they look like!!!!

Where's all the naked SE's?

Mines fine. But I like the worn technology look. Serenity is using it for camera test right now, so I can't share any pics sadly

Some wear & tear adds character to anything.

I dislike any scratches, especially if I can avoid them since I do occasionally drop my phone. Mine have lived in a case since April, so I'm useless here.

I use mine without a case and it's holding up well. I stopped it once taking too much stuff out of the car. It landed on the concrete and survived with only a tiny scuff in the corner.

I've had mine naked since March 30, and it's still looking new.

I don't like cases so I stay close to naked. I have some skins on my SE from 4tified wraps. Even when I didn't have a skin on it, I didn't have any scratches. Phone is pretty tough

Mine is all right so far. If you're the one who drops phone all the time, you'd better wear one. If not, just let your SE naked.

I am ordering an SE tomorrow and will be a lot more nervous about dropping it because of the glass on the back. I once dropped my 5C at the mall from shoulder height and I watched in horror as it bounced and jumped landing about 5 feet from where I was talking to someone! Continued to use it another 2.75 years and not a scratch.

I use mine without a case because of the nice rose gold color.
It still looks brand new but I am really careful with my phones anyway.
If I would use one it would be a leather case from apple in blue or black.

I love my Space Gray SE naked, but don't feel comfortable, don't want a scratch on it, so purchased an  leather case, it feels great, soft and protected

Wouldn't dare using it for long without a case. Purchased an otterbox symmetry series for it
