Anyone running without case?

[18t]

I don't use phone cases. I've heard lots of chatter about the back of the phone being scratch prone. Wondering if I need to buy a skin. Anyone running naked have any comments? Especially those who don't keep keys/change in the same pocket as their phone.

This is 9h glass back with laser cut lower point for the matte look. Even keys will have a hard time scratching it and what looks like scratches most of the time is just residue from the keys.

No case here and, so far, no scratches. I have the white Pixel 3 XL.

I haven't used a case for my last 3 devices. My left pants pocket is phone only. I did get the glass screen protector from Verizon. They put it in for me at the store.

Not running without a case.
Bought a spigen neo hybrid off Amazon
Got to have some kind of protection for me.

I will echo on the previous post.... Speck cases will be ordered if 50% deal is true and Temper screen protector on it way . Currently rocking Spigen case

I always use a case for protection and increased ability to hold onto the phone.

I ran without a case for the first couple weeks, then picked up a case for a couple dollars on sale. I didn't intend to use it, but out it on and have not removed it. It added less bulk than expected, so gonna keep it on for a while.

For the record, not so much concerned about the glass. More so the matte finish. Sounds like no serious issues yet from normal usage.

No case. I just have a dBrand skin.

If the phone wasnt so slippery and the camera bump didnt exist id go without a case, but for both of those reasons a case for me is required

I really wanted to run without a case as my Pixel 2XL always seemed so bulky with a case on it. Then my 3XL arrived and it was REALLY slippery. So I put a case on it. I was shocked to find though that it felt less bulky than my 2 XL.

This is not a lot of money to pay for a little bit of protection for a Pixel 3 XL phone.
And it don't hardly add any bulk or weight to the phone.

I run with a case on my P2XL ...clear, but still makes me more confident. Don't want to mess up my great device.

Using a clear soft case at the moment. Quite thin and works with the squeeze function. Will probably go for a hard matte plastic case in a couple of weeks. I prefer the texture and practical for day-to-day use.

However, I occasionally remove the case when I'm just at home to feel the frosted glass back. Everytime I do it feels like a new phone.

Incipio Duo. I spend a lot of time hiking and camping and the little extra confidence that a slip in the rocks won't be catastrophic is welcome.

That being said at home I often go "no case" just because it really is a great looking and feeling phone

 

[jonebk12]

Only until my case comes in from Amazon. I got a super thin/minimalist case for extra grippiness and scratch/bump protection. The 3 does feel great in the hand and is a lot less slippery than my OG Pixel, but I'll feel more comfortable day-to-day with a little protection on it.

I'm running with a Nomad case ... hoping it looks and feels like an old pair of boots some day!

Heres what I got on right now
