Just bought the 7 plus the other day! I have an Otterbox commuter on it right now (on sale at best buy $25) I also have 2 Spigen cases coming tomorrow!

Does not come with the old plastic screen protectors. Looks like LP is really enforcing the no screen protection thing....or maybe mine didn't come with any. Back isn't frosted like the last few NUUDs, it's crystal clear. I took a pic of the back for the curious.

First off, a comment about installation...okay, a few comments. First, insert phone into back of case, not the front frame. Second, be aware of the new volume rocker for the vibrate switch. Half of it is supposed to be under the front frame, while the actual switch itself is supposed to be between the frame and the outside. Third, no rainbows for the win (Truck, I'm talking to you!). Fourth, have a can Of air or a blowing medium of your choice to blow out the back piece. Anyways....

Any questions? Taking it for a test drive before I write my review. Also, sorry for the crap pics. My Air 2 just doesn't do it justice.

Does the phone loose its TouchID functionality?

Sold. For how much time I spend sniffing my phone, this makes it a done deal.

I want to hear more about how well that new mute switch mechanism works on LP? Like the look of that 100X better than the look of the Fre

Man I just can get over how boxy looking the bottom of the Nuud cases are. I know they're thicker because they need a seal around the screen unlike the Fre but it just makes me sad every time I think about getting one. I also read some reviews on the 6+/6s+ versions with people having problems getting the larger phones to actually be waterproof on the Nuud. Sigh, I guess I'll secretly keep wanting to do a LP case but just wait for the solidsuit to finally appear and do that with Rhino's screen protector. I was looking at the LP cases for hiking/outdoors protection but with the 1M water resistance on the 7's maybe the better drop protection of the Rhino is a better choice for me now.

If it helps, this version of the NÜÜD is way less boxy and thick. They did a damn good job.

And sorry I didn't post a comparison of the two models yet. Boyfriend showed up earlier than I expected to pick me up and now I'm staring at a wall in his living room while he gets ready

Found the wall o cheap speck cases at my Walmart by the photo section. Really wanted the presidio grip in gray even though I would have to cut out a headphone jack for my 6 plus. I was good so far and didn't get it though. They had regular candyshell and candyshell grips for $15 for the 6/6s plus

Edit: I live in Alabama and don't have a very big Walmart so maybe they are starting to have them at other Walmart's too.

So with no screen protector are you worried about scratches on the screen, in this case or another case??

If I use the case I will get one of the glass screen protectors that are cut to work with the NÜÜD. Also might try the new Zagg Glass+ Luxe edge to edge and see if that works.

Trying so hard to not pull trigger. Still think I want to give D&G my money > Lifeproof, again. Had D&G Wetsuit for iPhone 6 and really liked it... looks like it's quite improved since, too.

Wish there was a good Nuud VS Wetsuit comparison.
