Case? Do you really need one?

[rewNATION]

I take good care of all my electronics and i have applecare+ but i still use a case and i don't really like it. I'd prefer to use no case at all

 

[soogriff]

I'm a clutz so mine stays in an Otterbox. It's done cartwheels down a flight of stairs at the gym. Glad it was cased.

I don't want it but I need it. LOL If I had insurance I wouldn't worry; but I was a little late.

I see you're on Verizon! They have open enrollment for TEC through the end of the month. I have it on my 4S that I didn't purchase directly from Verizon. Also added it to my wife's white 4 that she's been using over a year now! This was just done in the last couple weeks!!

Just a heads up!

If you're like me. . .yes

I tend to be able to tear up an anvil. So I use the mack daddy case AND have insurance. Sort of my life philosophy of I'd rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

PLUS, I hunt so I dig the Realtree? camo pattern on my OB. That way the deer can't see me texting when it's slow. LOL!

I like using the iBattz Moho battery case I need all the power I can get. I live on my 4s View attachment 15265View attachment 15266View attachment 15267

I just leave mine at home!

J/K

when at home and randomly I have no case on mine, when at work or long days it's inside a Mophie case.

It's too slippery without a case. I tried a few until I found a Belkin case that has enough grip to hold, but not too much grip to stick in my pocket.

And which model of case is it?

 

[hallomynameis_]

I use an aluminum bumper case called "Draco IV" + a full body protector from bestskinsever. Protection while still retaining the beauty of the iPhone =P

 

[Fdmstng99]

I have my phone in a case most of the time, right now it's in a Spigen SGP case. I like buying them, it's an addiction.

I used an Otterbox Defender for a while until I was required to carry a Blackberry for work - I elected to get a Speck PixelSkin case through the free Apple Bumper program and now I use that primarily.

I mostly use a case to give the phone some sort of adhesion on a table and so forth so it's not idly knocked off a tabletop or other smooth surface.

I don't use any sort of protective "skin" on the front surface - I had one at some point but found I appreciated the crispness of the display more without it.

I have a 4 (not a 4S) and am coming up on two years (picked up the 4 as a preorder so I had it on release date), and the phone still looks like new.

OtterBox Defender, Speck CandyShell Card Case, and a Cubs logo hard case... I like to switch it up AND I have killed 3 phones before I got my iPhone so I am almost always going to have it in a case.

 

[sherlock]

I normally always use a case. For the last couple days I have been going naked and hoping for the best. So far so good no dings, dents or scratches.

 

[cretz42#WN]

I have my phone in a case about 99% of the time, mostly an otterbox. Yes, i realize it's just a phone, but to me it's more of an investment. I paid a decent amount of my money for this device, use it every day, plan on having it for a long time, and rely on it for communication and organization. Therefore, since it's one of the few material things that I have purchased, I feel the need to protect it as much as possible. Plus with my active lifestyle, better safe than sorry.

"it just feels better without one"

Surely, it does! In fact, certainly it does.

 

[kshen1]

I definitely need a case since I play lots of sports. Here's my setup.

Griffin Reveal Case in Grey
Verizon screen protectors which I love even though they're over priced

 

[bbui4]

I keep mine is a case so it will retain its high resale value. Usually sell the phone every year to get the next iPhone.

A lot of the slim cases aren't too bad. It also helps me differentiate my phone from all of my friends' iPhones.

 

[evorc]

Heck no! Why cover that beauty.
