I would like to use that as well. But I think it cannot protect against hard edge drops. Any experience with that?
For me, it’s not just the damage that results if I drop it, but the fact that I feel I’m much more likely to drop the phone without a case. Even if the glass back makes it less slippery than previous iPhones, I just don’t have as good a grip on it as with a case.
I have a clear rubber case that’s fairly thin, and a screen protector. Not much added bulk and should keep the phone pristine.
That’s sad, and unfortunate. I don’t really worry about it too much. I have had a couple incidents happen in the past, dented bottom corner of my 5s, chipped a tiny piece off front glass of my 4. If this one breaks, I will just have to suck it up like before.
I’m not perfect, but this phone does not deserve to be jailed in a case
As much as I would like using it naked, I don't want it to get scratched/dented. I'm using it with an Apple silicone case RED.
But no screen protector for me, hell no! Regardless of how good they are, they seem to spoil the experience for me. Also, in 10 years of owning iPhones, not once did I scratch the screen, so statistically I'm probably kinda safe.

This phone just feels way too damn good with nothing on it. The stainless steel and the glass back just feel amazing.
Caseless all the way. A case ruins how I would feel about this phone honestly.

totally agree.
I had every iPhone since the 3GS, this is the first iPhone ever which really doesn't deserve a case.
For me, it would completly ruin my overal user experience.
''It feels great in the hand....ladies, you know what to do''
I would go naked in public before before I’d let my phone go naked lol. Just can’t risk it.
Same. Well I did have a case on my 3g. I had a bumper on the 4(the free one) that I took off after 6 months. Since then ive been careless.totally agree.

This phone is the best feeling phone I have ever felt. Just tonight I was just running my finger up and down the stainless on the side and the back edge just laying on the couch over and over. It just feels goooood haha.
I feel like im a try hardware freak. Feel is everything.
While my wife and I were getting the X by the time I arrived at the Verizon store she already had a case on it.
A couple days ago we put a protective cover on the screen as well. I am going to get another case because I really dont like the one I have on but I'm not chancing dropping the phone and cracking anything. Too expensive.
Cheers to those who go without, your a better man than me.

The irony of having a no bezel/slim bezel phone and putting into a case with thick bezels
I see what you did there.
20th Anniversary Mac w/ 10th Anniversary iPhone.
You know your
stuff I had my iPhone X in a very thin case (0,3mm) for a few days, it totally ruined my user experience.
IMO, this is the first iPhone ever which absolutely doesn't deserve a case.
The grip, design and ergonomics of this iPhone, naked, is just incredible.
So I am rocking this master piece of design as it supposed to be...in full glory, naked.
Who's with me?!

the thing is that people are afraid of damaging/scratching the phone. for most people, it's a huge "investment".
however, i think we should always try and use it as it was designed to be used: naked. sure, use a case in specific situations (gym, while biking, in situations where the environment won't be as "nice" to your gadgets).
I don't like cases, but they are a must if you want to try and keep your phone in pristine condition...but will you enjoy using it with a case?
i seldom drop a phone. last time it happened was like 3 years ago or so..at the cinema. it slid from my pocket while sitting and that was it. lol
there's also the option to use a skin...

I am little bit concerned about the Glass black this year as it can break with one drop. I am using Apple silicone case.
