Are you going to rock it naked? Or add protection?

[naturalguy]

Of course, that's why I take care not to drop them.

Easy to say however the phone is like a wet bar of soap. I much prefer the feel of the phone with a case on. Good luck.

The slimmest case I can get and No Screen protector, with the Gorilla glass 5 or whatever I think it's OK.

Right now I have the neoflex and the ultra hybrid from spigen. Honestly not too impressed. The screen protector feels rubbery to me and the orange peel kills me on top of it seeming blurry. The case isn't terrible but it's got hard edges which makes it sort of uncomfortable to hold for a long time. I'm going to shop for a glass shield and already ordered my otterbox commuter

Thank you! Have had good luck going naked with every smartphone I've had for the last 6 years so I'm pretty confident I'll be ok!

I had a case on it before I turned it on for the first time! I switch phones a lot by selling my current one and applying that money to the new one. So I try to keep my phones as new looking as possible to profit from that when I go to sell it. So yea, I'm rocking the protected life.haha

Always naked!

You naked folks deserve the results if dropped. JMO.

You case folks deserve to have the dull boring feel of plastic in your hands. JMO

as a minimum I like clear rear skin and a screen protector. like skinomi techskin helps with scratch protection. while still showing off the phone

When I use a case I like the minimalist ones. Provide a better grip than a bare phone

I have a Spigen crystal clear slim case on the way, should be here tomorrow. Even a clear case is a catch 22 since it still shows fingerprints. But beats having them on the phone itself.

Still casually looking for a super slim snap-on case, wouldn't mind one like I've had in the past.

If it weren't for the fingerprints I honestly wouldn't worry as much but I'm too ocd

After 1 month of usage and you see all the Micro scratches on it, then you will again understand why anyone would want to put a case on it

How does a case prevent micro scratches on the screen?

My Spigen slim armor liquid crystal case showed up today, can't speak for protection but very happy with it! Just enough protection while still being minimal. Obviously I'm SOL if I drop it on the face, but that's a chance to take

Going to run a dBrand like on my S8 Plus.

I have a thin tpu case but opted for the additional insurance for this phone just in case.

Samsung Alcatara thin case. No need for screen protectors...we have GG5. my v20 after the return of note 7 had no scratches and I abused the phone daily without protection.

I bought the Spigen Ultra Hybrid Crystal Clear which is a harder plastic. I also got the NeoFlex premium optical full coverage film (thermoplastic polyurethane). I haven't installed it yet. Was hoping to see if someone else had and what they thought of it. I also purchased a VRS Design Case Crystal Bumper Hard Case, a clear tpu cover with a separate hard plastic bumper in Gold. (My S7edge was Gold and I had a VRS rippled clear plastic with black and gold bumper).

I dislike my neoflex and my ultra hybrid. They're Ok, but won't be my full time case and screen shield. I may save the case.

I'd like to use a case but the phone becomes too unmanageable when I do. I feel torn. Not sure what to do.

I got this case for that exact reason. It's amazingly thin and really high quality. No logo and gives good grip to the phone.

I've been eyeing that case. Was on the fence because I just wasn't sure it was going to be thin enough. Going to pull the trigger now.
