Considering where you live that'll be awhile.
Too much night life out there.
Ok. As of an hour or so ago I've decided to try my iPhone 6s Plus without it's usual Apple leather case. Will report back after a week or so!
There's more surface area to grab if it starts to fall.But the 6s+ is a tad bit thicker and heavier.
Will do. By the way, I'm in Lancashire England. I guess not as hot as where you are! (Currently 70-75F in the daytime)I went an hour without my case yesterday for my 6s+ but decided to put the case back on as I was getting really nervous.
However, that hour of no case changed me ... forever. I'm strongly considering giving it another try. I used to be Mr. Caseless until the 6+ as in the no humidity California desert, the phone is incredibly slippery. But the 6s+ is a tad bit thicker and heavier.
You've helped convince me to try another hour or two . Please let us know how it went.

99% of the time my phone sits in a business card holder. I have three. One on my desk at work, one at home and one on my desk at home.What I'd like to know is that those of you that go without protection (lol), how do you keep it from getting scratched to hell and back from everyday use, assuming there are no drops or dings? What do you do when you set it down on a surface to keep it from getting scratched to pieces, and how do you pick it up so it doesn't slide?

My wife has always preferred a booth when we go out and we generally sit the same way each time. The phone goes in a side pocket and stays there. No back pocket. I generally wear cargo pants and the hammer loop usually holds the bottom part of the phone in (I always place my phone screen out, upside down). Since this is a side pocket there is no stress on the phone and it's protected between myself (it's on the left side of my pants) and my son who usually sits on my left when we go out.I took my case off for an hour yesterday. Ended up putting case back on because I went to go jog at the gym and didn't want my phone scraping the plastic "phone/keys holder" area. I still want to go caseless so bad. lol.
When you go to a restaurant, where do you put your phone? Nice background btw.

I don't think I can do what you do. I have a 5 year old daughter, a 3 year old son and 1 year old son. and my hubby still wants more kids .And that is the difference.
PS. I'm married with a 12 year old son and a 7 year old daughter.
My daughter was 4 when I got my iPhone 5. Both my kids have grown up in a house full of laptops and electronics and both have been admonished to take care of the things they have and watch what they are doing.
My daughter and son do not own phones of their own although they have laptops - which they are expected to take care of.
My daughter in particular has two speeds. ON - full throttle or OFF. My phones were never damaged because she was not allowed to play with or touch them until she gained some measure of responsibility. She didn't get her laptop until she could prove she was responsible enough to take care of it. I had a 3GS at one point, both kids were only allowed a specific amount of time with it, supervised and with clean hands.
Both my kids having their own laptops drastically reduced the risk of them reaching for my phone. Since my phone goes with me in whatever room I am in it also makes it very hard for them to get a hold of without me knowing. They also do not wish to run the risk of getting in trouble.
We have iPad Air 2s. They do not touch their mother's because my wife would go ballistic. She does NOT allow anyone to touch ANY of her stuff without permission. If they want to play on the iPad they ask and if I say yes, their hands must be washed first (I don't like crap all over my screen).
Both my kids had plenty of toys to occupy their time. My son has had a laptop since he was three.
I don't wish to sound as if I am some sort of hellion father, but I was taught proper respect for boundaries and to take care of the things you have. I have imparted that to my children.
PS. When I say laptops people might assume the latest. No. My daughter has an 2004 iBook G4 and my son has a 2003 PowerBook G4. Both recognize that using them is a priviledge and not a right and that priviledge may be revoked at any time based on their current behavior.
To be fair to you, we don't get out a lot. Had we and our kids been more active things may have been different.I don't think I can do what you do. I have a 5 year old daughter, a 3 year old son and 1 year old son. and my hubby still wants more kids .
I just find it too much of a hassle to have to baby my phone. especially when you're running around town with 3 kids. kiddos to you.
