Hellooo guys!

I've decided to make the jump from the 4S, and oh boy this phone is amazing!
I'm so glad I upgraded, everything seems so much smoother with the new A6 proccesor! The design is just amazing! The 4-inch retina display is gorgeous!

Lovin it!

However I have some questions.. anyone here feels their home button/volume up or down button feels a bit loose?

And I was wondering if anyone here uses their iPhone 5 naked :s

Thanks!
-James

Yeah me too I love how it looks and feels naked, I bought a clear screen and back protector right after I got my phone, but after a week I had to buy a case because I noticed it scratches easily (even though I'm VERY careful with my devices).
So I followed what many ppl say: "I have to protect my investment"

Are you saying that the clear back protector didn't prevent it from getting scratched?

I went heavy at first with the Otter Box, then scaled way back with an aircraft grade aluminum case that's very light but strong. It just encases all edges and corners but leaves the sides, front and back completely open. Very minimalistic. The company is Crimson. Even got my name engraved for free!

Almost two months in and it's starting to get dinged up. Mostly because I've dropped it a few times on the concrete. Oh well. It adds toughness and I am not going to put a case on it.

I would most likely be the same way.

Im guessing he was probably referring to the frame of the phone itself

SHE (Yes I'm a girl ;)) was indeed refering to the iPhone edges, since the only thing that protects them is a case/bumper.

Yup. Dropped it a few times on tile and concrete. Still won't be putting a case on it.
