Excellent. Thanks, Mike. I am definitely getting a red Diztronic (assuming there is one for BN).

I'm not sure if this has been addressed but does the Case Mate Naked scratch easily on the backing? I just received the Pure Gear clear case and it seems to have many fine scratches on the back. It may not bother some people but it bothers me a little, haha.

Went naked since launch since I figured I'd be fine having never dropped an electronic device in my life. Well, it ended up falling out of my pocket while getting out of the car the other day and got a nice crack all the way across the screen. I'm getting an otterbox for my replacement when it arrives.

Please don't take this personally, but there are way too many people on here that have said "I always went nekked on my phones but now......" I know cases and screen protectors are for us OCD phone types. Even though cases usually are not the prettiest, we know in our own mind that our phone is still new and shiny underneath.

I'm one of those people that's never used a case. In two years with my Maxx HD I fumbled it once but caught it before it hit the ground and one time I accidentally knocked it off the armrest of my chair onto a carpeted floor. My previous phone had no incidences. But in less than a month I've fumbled my Turbo twice, both times catching it before it fell, so I'm considering a case.

Not yet in my experience. Seems like a reasonably hard plastic.

Received my Tudia case. I ordered a clear because I wanted to try something different. Thinner and more sturdier than a tech21. I am going to use this until Diztronic cases come out and see how much thinner it is. Thumbs up to Tudia

How clear is clear since it says frosted clear in the description? The top and bottom edges look much clearer than the back. I don't get why the whole thing can't be actually "CLEAR"!

Ditto with mine, but I can deal with it for now until it's bad enough to replace.

The top and bottom are straight see through as expected. The rear is pretty cloudy. Cloudier than you would expect but you can still see the "Droid" logo decently and the Moto logo a little bit. I think it looks pretty cool. I was getting sick of black cases.

No criticism intended, but I never understood why folks pocket carry. I carry mine in a clip holster or leather holster, so I don't have to worry about it falling out of my shirt or jacket pocket, or being squished in my pants pocket. I'm still nekkid using a belt holster for carry.

I feel restricted by a belt holster. It doesn't feel great when I have a seat belt on or sitting down. I used to love them but with the size of phones now I can't do it.

What do you use as a belt holster?

Presently, the one below from Ebay for $6.79. Waiting to get the Seidio spring clip holster for naked Turbos.

I can understand that. Some of it depends on what side you wear it on, your weight, and the car you drive. You job matters too -- what you have to do physically throughout the day.

Red and black Otterbox Commuter. Love the ballistic nylon, but it's too slick naked.

Re: droid turbo cases?

Don't kid yourself, the Turbo is still just a phone and needs a case. I was waiting for a backordered black lifeproof case when my two week old Turbo fell out of my car, about a 4 foot fall, onto asphalt. While the screen was uncracked, it wouldn't turn on. Over $500 and one week later, I'm still waiting on my new Turbo to come in.

#Buyck Ouch!! I guess you didn't hadn't have any insurance? My company paid for my Turbo...and I pay the bill...I added insurance since I didn't pay for device. Verizon deductible is only $100, not bad for $9 a month.

Exactly. Unfortunately. I'm also through Verizon, but I still hesitate spending an extra $200+ on every phone for insurance. If something happens to my new phone even with a case on it I will be taking it to a repair person to see if they can use pieces from my old Turbo. It may be a bad idea, but what are the chances... Next phone I will get insurance from day 1.
