Title: Do any of you iphone users carry your phone without a case?
Post by: Al Doggity on December 29, 2016, 02:39:05 PM
How has it held up? Up until now I've had regular sized iphones. My wife got me a 7plus for christmas and it would be a lot more convenient to carry without the protective case. I've never done this and all of my phones have been in great condition when I've stopped using them. This phone is supposed to be a lot more durable than the last version I had. Part of me has always felt that cases aren't really necessary.

Been using iPhone for over 5 years never used a case and never broke one. I take care of my shit.

If you know you will be dropping your phone and abusing it then yes get a case. If not then I wouldn't worry too much.

I'm very careful with my stuff but I always have a case on my iPhone as I drop it a lot and with case nothing happens.My buddy bought iPhone 7 and we went to gym and he got out of car and dropped it as it was on his leg and it shattered,cost 130 to fix it cause no case.

Make sure you get a transparent case so people can see the apple and know you have an iphone that is what i did.

I just went to a 7 plus as well. I just use snap covers. It protects them in most cases but adds basically no extra weight or size. Go to redbubble.com. They have any case design you can think of. My snap cases for my 7 plus was $26 and some change.

Carried my new iPhone for 9 months without a case (always used an otter box in the past) this past weekend I dropped it getting out of the car 0 screen busted - put it in a case.

I liked carrying it without the case, slipped into my pocket easier and overall much better feeling without the bulky case.

I haven't had a case on my phone since April. No drops and no scratches. (Plus its a nice pretty rose gold LG lol).
I always found it funny when guys had $40 otterbox cases and I'd spend $6 including shipping on a hybrid case on Amazon. Had a rubber case with bumpy corners and a plastic case that snapped on top of it. Things worked great.
(Unrelated side note, best ear buds I ever bought cost $4 with shipping from Amazon. Called" iLove" or "iLuv". They were pink lol.. The other colors were $1-3 more but I didn't give a shit. Sounded better than my Bose(am I spelling that right?) and my Beats by Dre ear buds. I dunno how ppl can train with the mickey-mouse headphones.

I prefer not to use a case, but I do anyway.  I have the 7+ as well.

I use Spigen cases - I've found them to be the best combo of less bulk, good price, and great protection.  Had one on my 6 for two years and it survived plenty of drops, including one across a street when I was running.  No damage.

Phage?   I asked about iphones because it seems like android phones have a reputation for being more durable. Don't most of the mid-higher end devices have gorilla glass screens?

I don't want to break it by dropping it, but I also want to keep the screen and body as scratch-free as possible.

Is it true you can't get insurance if you don't have a case?

I also use a case and it protects it well. I also drop my Iphone a lot.
But why do they design phones that needs to be protected by cases to not fall to pieces? Crap design!

Of course.
The case is gay as fuck.
I have iphone because it was given to me. Quite nice design so no need to cover it up.
