Who's going naked?

Not me after watching this video. According to SquareTrade, the S8 is the first phone they've tested that cracked on all 4 sides on the first drop.

You gotta look at the source for that video. They want that phone to break because it benefits them. Thats why they fail to mention the speaker clears up after the water has been pushed out of the membrane. Also, theres other videos of the screen not breaking for a few drops. The back breaks very quickly though.

Its hard for me to trust something like this from a company that profits on a users fear.
 
Not completely naked here, using a Dbrand skin just like I did on my Note 5. I have a case for the phone, but will probably only put it on when I go hiking.

@HeavyToka


I'm in the Uk and just ordered the Black Dragon DBrand skin for the s8.

Never applied one of these before so please may I ask....

Is it easy to fit ?

I've ordered the Back, Camera , front top and front bottom parts ~ If I prefer can I just fit the back piece and camera piece, and leave the front top and front bottom part off ?

How durable are these dbrand skins ?
 
I don't have the S8's but if I did......

.....its all about PEACE OF MIND for me! Don't want to be stressing drops.....no thanks! lol
 
I never owned a phone I didn't drop, so I immediately installed a Urban Armour Gear case. It isn't large but it has been a proven protector for me.
 
I'm currently going naked only to allow my zagg screen cover to dry. Gotta say it is a beautiful phone, but the case will be going back on before going to work tomorrow.

I just got one of those zagg at best buy and had them put it on. I made it from the store to home which is 2 miles and tore it off. I don't know if the girl didn't do it right or what but it looked like garbage. You could see lines all over it and the left edge already wasn't sticking. It's now in the trash. May go to a different store when they aren't so busy and try again.

Yeah mines working, but it's ugly and does have some touch sensitivity issues. I'm just too afraid of scratches or cracks to remove it.

You have to give it a couple days for everything to dry. Mine has lines and bubbles, but they should go away. However one of the edges doesn't want to stick and there's a piece of dust right on the edge of the screen. I'll probably be heading back up there Wednesday to have them redo it. I spent the $8 so if they screwed it up they can try again.
 
No case, but a Zagg sapphire screen protector and a Sinji Pouch on the back for wallet stuff. If it hands on its back, the pouch and cards will take the hit, and if it lands face down, well, good luck, Zagg!
 
You go naked with this phone, get ready to bend over and take it up the azz when the glass breaks. Dont say I did not warn you.

Someone in XDA already broke his on 2 day as he forgot it was on his lap when he got out of the car.

Nah never go naked. I dropped my galazy note 5 and the back broke so badly on such a small crack. A phone cost 850 plus tax im good. Just get a minimal case. Once you break that back or front you will regret a case.
 
I'll go naked front and back and a crashguard bumper on the frame for maximum drop protection. There is no need for a screen protector with normal use but drops happen.
