All naked, all the time. I have faith in the strength of the glass and it has held up amazingly. Many drops and not a single scratch.

jello, how high up was your phone when you dropped it and what type of surface did it land on?

just curious..

Hmmm. Rely heavily upon velcro. My 3GS was naked except for a little piece of Velcro. Velcro will not stick to iPhone 4. Therefore, I have a Luv case to hold the Velcro on. Velcro sticks to my iPad with no assist.

Yuck. I can't imagine having my phone NOT in a case. The scratches, the chips, ugh. I'd be a nervous wreck. Love my OtterBox Defender. It's been around the phone since day one.

Just not that fragile. Still, after literally destroying one at 12, my 14 year old nephew would not take his second one out of the box until we had driven all the way across Long Island to get a case.

I don't care about resale value at all. I just give my phone away when I buy the latest greatest model. But, back on topic, I have a vaja case on my iP4. These cases are as beautiful as the iPhone IMO. This phone is just too slippery without a case

I am with you on the first but think that "smooth" is beautiful.

Misleading thread title!! :( :(

I was expecting a totally different discussion. :mad:
OP, you suck!
.
Jokes!
.
One of the first apps I dnldd when I got my 3GS a year ago was a lightsaber app.
Watching my then 5 year old waving my phone wildly around the house, I had NO regrets about buying a case for it. ;(
.
What kind of case?
Some ten dollar thing they had at the Telus store where I got my phone.
It's not pretty or fancy because that isn't important to me. It's extremely grippy.

I am glad my nephews never found that app.

I never cease to be amazed at the number of choices of cases that are offered or the price that they command. Lots of people are profiting from the success of the iPhone.

Cases are kind of stupid for phones. JMO though. Especially funny are those who wrap em in plastic then throw a case on. You then have a redesigned plastic looking phone that can't fit accessories. Not to mention the decrease in performance having a capacitive screen.

I'm rollin naked...

I'm rollin naked too finally after my upgrade Oct, '10/ip4. About a week ago I just applied a Wrapsol full body armor and 'LOVE'n IT'. I'm like 1-2 others that have stated, "barely ever drop my iphone." Guess, I'm pretty particular about my things. LOL

you really have to appreciate it when the younger generation learns the value of keeping something nice, glad to hear it

my son, who is 11, is very neurotic about his iPT4, or any piece of electronics he owns or has owned

i'm afraid he might be turning into a little hacker already. every iPT he has owned so far has to be jailbroken so he can put his favorite tweaks/themes on it. he says they're boring otherwise. he knows his way around Cydia and Winterboard very well. he also understands the meaning of a "tethered jailbreak", something a lot of grown adults do not :D

I would like to "roll naked," but I'm too paranoid about drops, spills, etc. I've been using the OB Defender case, and it is much bulkier than I would like, but I also rest a little easier knowing that my phone is about as protected as it can get. I also have one of the iSkin cases, but the power button using that case seems very difficult to actually press. Maybe I'll get some bumper-like case someday for when I'm at home, etc., but for now the Defender works without too much hassle.
