No case for me. I've used my last three phones without a case and I'm glad I did. I'm quite careful with my phones, and I also have a pocket solely for my phone (left front). The iPhone 5 is too awesome to be hidden in a case. People seem really surprised by it naked. Most people have never seen one without a case and they tell me it's even more impressive without one. I just like the feel/function of it without a case.

This is like OCD vs Anarchy to me. I love the idea of seeing the actual beauty of the phone but the idea of it being full of fingerprints, nicks and lint make me shiver. I have two weeks to decide my iPhone 4 lived in a Defender case and I'm considering Lifeproof this time around but it seems like such a shame to cover up such a beautiful design.

The people who got Otterbox which one did you get? I got a Defender last time around because both the front and back are glass. However with the aluminum back I feel like I might not need the tank of the Defender? I was looking at the Commuter and even their other slimmer cases.

Naked love it...hard shell case love it (piece of mind!)

The case is ultra light and thin and doesn't add any bulk so pretty happy for ?4.99

With my 4s, I had a commuter and defender. Loved the commuter more. With the five, I have the new defender series with the screen popped out and a zagg shield in its place. I love it!

This was what I was thinking have the zagg shield on the screen and then just the case covering the rest. Decisions decisions

Awesome! Andddddd how much did you pay for your defender? :D
How much does it cost to replace the phone's glass? :D

Defender = $50 max.

Replacing the glass on an 4 = 149.

Replacing the glass on a 4S = 199

Replacing the glass on a 5 = I don't know but probably at least 2 bills.

I changed the front screen on my wife's 4S, you couldn't pay me enough to do it again. My time alone to do it is worth more than the price of a case, not to mention the cost of the screen itself (around $25).

Some people like cases, some don't. Do what you want. I don't know why some people get so defensive.

I broke down and bought a $5 case at radio shack, for no other reason than to prevent it from getting any scuffs on the back...the only thing this case did was add a little bit of weight to it (not much at all), all in all, as far as cases go, I'm pretty happy (though I'm pretty sure it won't do a damn thing for protecting it if i drop it, lol)...

Semi-naked here with the Zagg Extreme full body (front & back). I think that plus accidental damage protection via SquareTrade is protection enough.

Naked so far... I was considering getting that zagg full body also but I don't know how well I would do with putting it on lol so it will probably stay bare for awhile. Had I stuck with the white I would have put a case on it no question but I just love the murdered out black one too much to not let it show
