So what do you have done to your phone?
Do you like it naked? Did you get a case for protection?
Hate Cases? Think it looks way to good for a case?
Pouch or belt clip?

Just a way to pass the time :p

I honestly hate cases, add way to much bulk to the phone, makes it look stupid, and some of the more slip resistant cases take out my entire pocket when trying to take it out.

I wouldn't mind a clip for work, but i think i can deal without.
All i have done is Ghost Armor full body.

I alternate between an Otterbox Defender and a barely there case, but I always have some sort of protection on it.

I couldn't go naked. If i ever scratched the screen it would bug me beyond belief. Even a single dead pixel annoys me, its like my eyes just get drawn to it.

I like the naked look but have to use a case in my line of work. I prefer my case to have a belt clip.

I have to as well being in a garage 8 hours a day. Although I could leave my phone in a drawer in my tool box, I'm too worried someone will get in it to put a tool back and not think twice and throw it on top of the phone. Although outside of work I tend to go naked.:cool:

I like the book book case. Been using it for about a week now. Love the look.

I move back and forth between rolling naked and using a speck shell. No screen protector. They're kind of like condoms (they offer protection, but just don't feel right).

I'm a case-aholic. I have several different ones and I'm always switching which one I'm rocking. On a side note, I do like the naked feel but am too worried about a scratch I did have an Invisible Shield on it when I first got it but I didn't like the feel of it.

That looks like a dust nightmare haha

Yeah I didn't think about that till I was driving away from the Apple store. oops haha. Oh well, it looks nice.

It gets a bit dusty, every 3-4 days I take it off and wipe the bottom of the iphone but its saved me on a drop or two. Dust I can handle. A deductible to replace my iphone hurts more.

I got several cases for my iPhone. I switch regularly between my Element Case Vapor AR-15V and Element Case Vapor Japan Relief edition. Sometimes I use my Otterbox commuter (Only when I'm traveling).

But my favorite by far is the Element Case Vapor Japan Relief Edition (see attached image)

Five months with the same thing, so I figure my current combination must be pretty special. I have a Bodyguardz carbon fiber back, and a red/black Bodyguardz Ciderz (bumper).

I use a OEM bumper, screen protected front and back, and use a belt pouch. All together.

Currently using an ifrogz luxe lean. My other favorite is the Case Mate Barely There. Both protect the back and sides without adding bulk.

I use a OEM bumper, screen protected front and back, and use a belt pouch. All together.

What belt pouch are you using, if you don't mind my asking? I'm having a heck of a time finding one for the hubby. Thanks!

I bought it at a mall kiosk. I wasnt for iPhone but it fit the iPhone with me using a bumper on it. I have no clue who makes this.
