for the 1st two weeks of ownership, i was very concerned about keeping this baby naked. i read some of the reviews on tmo's site which mentioned the fragility of the phone and the untimely death of my galaxy s4 was also due to it being naked. yes, i prefer to keep my phones naked and don't like the extra bulk/thickness that cases add.
so yeah! naked all the way! i'm all for naked phone, but i'm swallowing my pride this time. i got a case for mine and it's the very 1st case that i ever have had that actually makes me forget that i have one. it's not bulky or inhibitive. it's the IVSO brand sold on amazon, but it's actually a Nillkin L39U Frosted case.
