I was naked for 3 days and Actually disliked the phone. It was slippery and flipping it open One-handed was difficult. Now that I have a case it fixed both those problems. Now I’m enjoying my phone a lot more because of a case

Phones today are just entirely too expensive to carry unprotected, especially if you work in areas that could be hazardous to your phone. I've seen way too many of them that have suffered even where there aren't a lot of hazards.

I'm using the leather case from Samsung. Highly recommended it.
I ordered one leather and Aramid.. Good to hear

Most definitely agree... I work with computer so behind the desk makes it easy... Only slips have been my lapses like leaving in loose shorts then sitting down and flop to concrete haha.. One time I left it on my lap while driving and when I stopped forgot and it went flying lol.. I'm much better nowadays

Anyone gotten a case yet for their device? I feel like we're all naked right now lol.
I got the Samsung silicon and aramid case using the pre order promotion credits while ordering. Using the silicon case currently since it's more grippy than the aramid case.

I'm definitely keeping mine in a case, I drop stuff fairly often. I have two cases so far, both matte in finish. Still feels thin but I know it's protected.

I have had the Galaxy Z flip from its inception and have always used a case from day 1. Original Z Flip I used a case from Casemate, and with the Z Flip 3 I am using the Spigen Tough Armor Case which gives plenty of protection. The Casemate did not allow easy access to the Fingerprint though.
Overall I am more than pleased with the Z Flip.
I do not think that the cases from Samsung give as much protection although they may look better.

"Hip new Flip" - I like that.

If I had one, I would. I'd like the extra security. But I'd try to make the case as slim and maybe even as transparent as possible, to show off the colour and still retain some of its original feel.

We all should as Samsung gave us Care+ for free for a year, some got two.
It's not like replacements are free if you break the glass that we don't have to worry just because we have Samsung Care+. Still you need to pay $250 for cracked screens.

Outside screens are less which is nice I think like $99 and $149 respectively..

Is this only available to folks that purchased directly from Samsung?

I got mine from the carrier.
In the US, yes you should have bought from Samsung.com and add the free year care+ during the pre-order. If you didn't do that when buying from Samsung.com then you can't get the free year. But you can get the paid monthly Care+ even if you bought from carrier. You can enroll via Samsung members app.

Some other countries, they had the option to add the free Care+ even after receiving the phone. But unfortunately in the US that's not an option.

I didn't see it when I preordered. Sammy should have added it by default. Kinda sneaky of them... ugh! I got insurance through Verizon so guess I'll have to go that route if I have issues.

Naked, well the leather case is sweet however that 4 piece whitestone dome, should arrive anytime and I may use 3 of the 4 pieces. Will not change inner screen yet. Whitestone dome is as close to naked as I get!
