So... Took my case off for a while (official silicone case) ... And forgot just how awesome the phone feels naked. Love the design (except that it's a bit top heavy with the camera unit).

Anyone have good luck with latercase / mnml / pitaka cases or any other super slim cases? Would love to not have a case but don't trust myself.

Having a case kills that slim bezel feel though.

I used to be a naked guy myself; My wife turned me on to this Ownest case on Amazon for about $10. It's very minimalist, and doesn't really feel like having a case. I've really gotten hooked on the built in ring too.
The only real drawback is no wireless charging. But that's not really so bad, and the case is easy to remove if I really want to.

I love the feel of the Pitaka case. Havent had any trouble with it slipping out of my hands I just wish they had different colors for Samsung phones like they do for the Iphones

Love my Latercase. The only case I’ve been using the last 4 months. Took some pictures this morning and the case looks great and holding up well. Phone feels super thin in hand as it’s designed to and the Kevlar provides a no slip feel. If you’re not the type to drop you phone, I highly recommend.

I don't have any minimalist or the later case, but I do have a Ringke fusion case and I love it. They have the best feeling button's, IMO of course, but it's done me well. And when I get tired of it, I go naked. I go back and forth after a few days to a week or so at a time.

Yes, these N20Us do look good naked.

FYI... I ended up trying the MNML clear case. Man it's thin. A tiny bit of a seam on the sides that I don't' like, but that may wear down. But... for $27 its a super thin case and you get the mirror from the back to shine through a bit. In hand it feels as thin as no case very nearly. I assume the pitaka / lattercase are similar. (I just didn't want to spend the extra, and liked the idea of a clear case). I still have the silicone case, and it has its advantages. While thicker, it is soft and the rubber is very grippy.

Personally really like the S-view material without the closing front. ;) Anyway, worth checking out MNML if you want a thin case to protect against scratches not drops.

Link to the case: https://mnmlcase.com/products/galaxy-note-20-ultra-mnml-case

I think I read that the darker ones (not the clear) have a bit more grip to them.
