Use the case for better grip, so indirectly, will give more protection (avoid the drop). Also, I can put the phone on the desk plain surface, without touching the camera lens. I like the hard case (which I never/rarely take out after installed).

Hey guys :)
This is my first post here!
So basically, I recently got a 6S plus and a blue Apple silicone case which I like. I was just wondering if the phone actually needs a case? I'm very careful with my devices and I have the silver one so scratching shouldn't be much of an issue. Just wanted to know everyone's thoughts!

Hello, Charlie. In terms of me, I think the case is not necessary. I have a iPhone 6 which bought 7 months ago. From I owned it first day, I didn't use case. Because I think the case affects the good look of iPhone, what's more, it will make a worse touch feel.

Depends on what you want to do if you sell it. Obviously if you do sell it down the line and it has minor scratches its going to affect the price, if this doesn't bother you about re-sell price then don't have a case :)

I've always had a case on my iPhone's unless when I'm at home on the sofa, where I know if I did drop it its not an issue as the carpet is a backup haha
 
:p Hi, I want to know what's the meaning of "POH-TEK-SHUN", is it Cantonese pronunciation?

There's a long standing, probably racist joke, that Chinese people can't pronounce the letter R. Therefore a popular dish from a Chinese takeaway is chicken flied lice.

Without any actual knowledge of Hong Kong, or the difference between Cantonese and Mandarin, my guess would be that instead of substituting L for R, it is simply omitted.
