So who's planning to run their 6 caseless?

[HAWK]

I got mine today and when I left the Apple Store (after they had no cases in stock) I went to the zagg booth and got them to put on a tempered glass screen protector and a protective film over the back... That's as much of a case as I'm gonna use on my 6. I think

I got a case today but I don't I think I will use it all the time. After going out last night I realized I need a case for those times for sure.

I think the same, you don't need a case if you take care and won't do stupid things. If you meet other people or "have to" give it other people and you know it in advance then put it in a case.

I had my iPhone 4s for 3 years and it hit the ground 3 times... Every time it did it was because someone else dropped it or did something stupid like joking how awful it would be if a phone would hit the ground

I may. Trying it out now, as the Apple cases sold out at the various Toronto-area Apple Stores.

It's beautiful but a little slippery, and I often carry my phone and my keys in the same pocket.

Actually, it's time to start carrying the phone in the wallet pocket -- spare change can go in the keys pocket. So given that choice, sure, caseless makes sense.

I got a cheap $15 Insignia case at Best Buy that fits well and doesn't add a lot of bulk. I'm fairly picky and was happy to spend only $15 on a case!

I saw that case online. I think I am going to pick one up. They look pretty nice.

I don't even have a case on my 5C.
I never liked cases, although I paid for it once.

I have an Apple leather case for my iPhone 6 because I find it feels slippery. However, when I wear skinny jeans/pants the extra girth of the phone with the case makes it hard to sit. I will take the case off when wearing skinny jeans and pants.

I have an Apple leather case for my 6 and have used it since day 1, but I am riding bareback today to see how it goes. I have my case on stand by though...

 

[Raginrogue]

Currently have it caseless for now but might be picking up a case in the future just for precaution to use periodically

I would LOVE to go caseless, I did, 85-90% of the time with my 5s and it felt wonderful in my hand.
My only problem with the 6 is that it's so dang slippery i'm terrified that i'm gonna drop it when I just take it out of the case to wipe it off.
Is there any way to make it more... tacky, so that it doesn't feel so unstable in my hands?

 

[ghostface147]

Yeah I couldn't stay caseless. The phone is too slippery for my tastes.

what about putting on those films that cover the entire phone? I have never tried it but some people like it. I agree with you --the phone is a slippery devil... i decided to get applecare+ since I already had 2 close calls with it.

Anyone else find release month annoying when you can't find screen protectors or any good cases for the new phones? I could care a less but I picked my wife up a new one today and we have been searching for screen protectors and cases for hours..... Omg kill me now

I just installed one for the back only and it gives the phone a better grip on hand. Really liking it so far.

Did you try Best Buy? The store in my city had a wall full of Zagg Shields.

 

[HAWK]

Yeah we don't live in the city we live in a smaller town so that's why we are hooped

Ugh that's happened to me once and I was so upset. That's why I'm pretty sensitive when people handle my iPhone.

I've always used an Otterbox Defender. I may try the Otterbox Symmetry this time when I get the 6. It's not as bulky and is sleek in design with great protection. I like the grip the Otterbox affords. It helps me do the photo work I do on my phone. That's been my plan all along.

They look a lot like the Speck cases.

I picked up a Commuter yesterday but taking it back today - the fit wasn't that great, maybe a later batch will be more exact.

I wasn't going to use it without a case but after a day, it's way too thin and smooth for me. I'll drop it sooner or later. Plus i prefer actual black so a black case makes it my "space grey" black front and back and gives me some grip.

I had the "brushed onyx" on my 5s. I love their skins. Precision cut, doesn't cover the Apple logo, provides a little more grip on the phone (depending on the finish you buy), and looks great!
