Anyone using their note 8 with no case or just a skin?

Tempted to use just the skin on the back, no case or bumper. Right now I'm using the DBrand grip bumper with back skin.
 
I'm using a red dragon skin from D Brand. Right now I'm also using a otterbox case on it too when I'm outside. It does feel great without having the extra bulk of the case though.
 
I was using mine without a case for a few months. Now I have a Samsung case on it. Got rid of the Otterbox when it no longer fit the phone as it was stretched out from removing it a few times.
 
Too thin and too slippery for me without a case. I guess a skin could help a little in the slippery dept. but I've been rocking a Neo Hybrid case since day one and for me it makes it perfect in hand as well as give it a more solid feel.
 
I have the red skin dragon also and that helps for grip. It just feels nicer and the edge of the phone pops without the case on it.
 
I have a Slickwrap on the back, it's in a Chinese Alcantara case and I have a Whitestone Dome glass on it. The glass was a recent addition due to some scratches that I got on my screen.
 
I always used to use my phone's naked but the modern Samsung designs are too thin and slippery for me so tech 21 pure clear case for me

I actually like the feeling of it with a case better than naked and it is far too fragile a phone to use without a case
 
So for most of us, the color of the phone doesn't matter, we are going to cover it up with a case anyway. I know there are clear cases, but those are fingerprint magnets which drive me nuts, and they get scratched up.

I do like the DBrand grip bumper with the wrap on the back, but they aren't even selling them to the public yet for the phones we have now, I highly doubt they will have them for the note 9 release date.

I had a case AND a screen protector on mine! It's a 900 phone! (NOT that I paid 900 mind you ;) )
 
Phones do feel great without the added weight and feel... But I'm too clumsy to risk such a thing!
 
I like case, dun like my phone to be so thin and there's no way it can look nice with all the fingerprints over it anyway
 
I'm using a Slickwraps clear skin on the back and nothing else right now. Occasionally I will pop on a Tech 21 case, but I enjoy the phone without a case so much more.
 
I have about a half a dozen cases for my Note 8 that I use depending on where I will be and what I am doing. I will take the case off when at the office or just sitting at home in the evening. Anytime there is a risk of dropping, I put a case on it. It's too slippery and I would just worry about dropping it without some sort of case on it. I do like the feel of the phone though so I enjoy using it caseless when I can.
 
I have had want too many near misses to use this without a case.

With that said the phone is insured for quite a lot, but I'd rather not go through the drama of claiming and having to setup the phone again, lol.

Even with a DBrand skin, I don't feel right. A mate of mine has a S9+ with an aweseom camo DBrand skin, feels great but doesn't feel at all protected.
