I have the VZW shell/holster, Incipio NGP, Seidio Surface and Diztronic. When I am out and about, I wouldn't leave my GNex unclothed - I just can't risk hurting my GNex if I drop him.

But in the privacy of my carpet laden home, I keep him naked. He feels so good in my hands naked!

I have a tpu case that barely gets any use. This phone just feels fantastic in the hand without a case. If I take it out in public, I always two hand it. Cases are annoying.

When I get my first scratch on my GNex, then I will be more brave and go caseless outside, but right now, my GNex is pristine! I don't want to risk it!

I wish Seidio would make a holster for the naked phone. That I would buy and use for sure!

I loved the feel of my first Nexus. After dropping it and shattering the screen I now have a Diztronic case on it. Before every time I pulled it from my holster it felt like it was going to drop. It now feels completely safe and the Diztronic makes it feel more secure every time I hold it. The back of the case also keeps it from sliding on smooth surfaces like car seats.I with the design had precluded the need for a case but alas, is not to be.

I use a remora concealed holster, works well. You can even use it with shorts, sweats or pj's

What holster do you use with the Diztronic?

The GNex is a slippery little devil without a case. That is why I only keep him naked in the house with carpet underfoot.

The other thing to consider is a skin, like Ghost Armour, which I may get. There are others, but I can't remember all the brands.

I have a bunch of cases but lately i keep mine naked not even a screen protector reason being is i usually keep my phone looking brand new for resale value but with my nexus i don't plan on selling it so I'm just goin to enjoy it I'm not worried about it

also really like it without a case, but keep it in a diztronic usually bc i bought it off contract and dont have insurance.

screen protector is a must (good ones like sgp are very clear) = if i get scratches on the screen i'll want to kill myself.

btw this case was recommended somewhere as thinnest, least obstrusive case - http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Verizo...idcentral00-20

dont have it but its on my radar.

I'm so weird...

To me, a case will only guarantee that I'll drop the phone. Without the case, I treat the phone like it's actually worth $700. I only put it in pockets that it can't slip out of. I never put my car keys in the same pocket.

Two months in, this strategy is working but you know I'll beat myself up on the day I do drop the phone.

I dropped my Blackberry on about the 18th month... it survived but just barely. Of course dropping a BB is one of the most useful things you can do with it.

i hear that.

but i drink too much to NEVER use a case.

and i prize this phone more than any of the previous phones i had - treated my caseless thunderbolt like a demolition car.

[roaddawg24]

me too,so I decided on the otterbox,and I love it.Its not TOO big in my medium sized hands and looks great too,ive already dropped it a few times in two weeks ive had it and no problems so far.

I used to go with only the snap on cases, they protected my Droid/Droid X like nobody's business... but then I started rooting. After some not so glamorous ROMs, I realized how un-awesome trying to unfasten a case is (while trying not to break the clips) to do a battery pull or even place in a dock. My short sabbatical to sprint with a Nexus S 4G cemented this ideology. I still remember talking myself down a few times within the first few days of owning (and immediately rooting) it over wanting to throw it.

To make an already long post shorter, I use the silicone cases because taking cases off is a pain. When the docks come out I am sure I'll be glad I chose this path.

boot loops + snap on case =

I love the feeling of the naked Nexus too. I usually go caseless over the weekends if its a lazy weekend. But I do notice it seems to slip out of my hand more often without the case. Luckily I'm usually sitting so it falls either on the table or my lap haha

That's exactly how I am. When I do take the GN out, I'm amazed by what it looks like underneath its battlesuit. Until it gets scratched, though, it's remaining in said suit--particularly when I go outside. Hell, I won't even it use it outdoors unless I'm seated lol.

And traveling? It doesn't traveling unless sheathed in either its (1) sock, or (2) custom made sleeve.

OCD? Yup.
