Naked note 2?

[fillossofer]

I bought the Trident case and while it does add a little bulk, I like knowing the phone underneath is mint. I also bought some Zagg screen protectors but havent put one on yet because the one came with the Trident case is pretty awesome.

Can removing it hurt the phone? It was hard to get out.

Agreed. I had a hard time removing the case. I figured out if I first pull out the kickstand, it's much easier to remove.

As for having a case, I'm thinking of returning mine as it makes the device too wide for my liking. That and getting my Note 2 in & out of my pocket is a PITA with the case.

I use the flip case and the screen protectors from Verizon. I won't use naked.

I finally decided that even though I like the phone naked, the usefulness of the kickstsnd wins. There travel been many times that the kickstand would have come in handy.

It helps me a lot in relieving aching hands, so well worth it for me.

Is like mine naked if I could stick a rubber type sticker on the back panel so it doesn't slide out my hands. Its too slippery naked.

I actually find it harder to hold and use with the case on.

My phone has had the flip cover since Day 1. This is the closest to a case I will ever use. I love the natural feel of the phone and the flip cover wipes off my fingerprints and keeps dust out. So I'd call this semi-nude since it's not technically a case.

No case for me, although I bought a bunch of them. I use a slightly textured skin on the back of mine to reduce the slippery element.

I drop my phones too often...I have to use a case. Using the Seidio Active with kickstand and LOVE it!

i'm thinking about getting this case or the Otterbox Commuter case

 

[johnnyshinta]

How is it that the Verizon kickstand case that is textured is more slippery than the naked phone.

I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons of the case. The pros are protects back and sides of phone from scratches and minor impacts and has a kickstand.

Cons are more slippery in my hand and grips my pocket

The age old dilemma...looks sooo sexy without the case. However, I can't properly enjoy the phone because I would be too on edge about dropping it so I go with a case.

That's exactly how I feel. But I have insurance on the phone for just that reason. So I don't need to worry about the phone but still enjoy using it without a case.

Hmm...not sure if we have the same case or not. Mine is rubbery and has lines on the back. The material it's made out of makes it difficult to put in and take out of my pocket. That's why I stopped using it. I loved the kickstand but I struggled (A LOT!) trying to take it out and put it in.

I buy several cases for every phone and always end up taking them all off and going naked. I need to learn to not buy any accessories for my phone. Just a waste of money

Hate my otterbox commuter case bc bulk..but i need to protect this..more important

Check out the Monaco Leather Pouch. It provides protection while the phone is in transport but allows you to use it naked otherwise. It easily fits inside my left front pocket clipped to the top of the pocket. Or in the case where the pocket is too small or too tight (ex. couple pair of jeans), I'll clip it on the outside of the pocket instead sitting vertically on my hip. It's also handy to put the phone on top of the pouch where it sticks to the leather making it easy to hold with one hand vertically or horizontally.
