I don't like using a case tbh for the reason I find the phone gets really hot with them. Especially in the summer
Got a tip for us?

No case, no screen protector, nothing. My phones are always naked. I can’t stand the added bulk of a case (even the thin ones), and hate the feel of screen protectors (especially the edges). Phones feel so much better without them. Especially the iPhone X.
No cases, ever. I always use my iPhone out of the box in its full entirety. I'm Also cautious enough with my devices that I don't have to worry about how I treat them.
I wish I was cautious but I tend to do stupid stuff when I drink lol. I don't like cases but I do use screen protectors I mean for £1 that can save you getting a replacement screen and doesn't affect the phone too much is a bargain
I tried with a leather case, but the phone is so much more sexy without a case.
Naked ftw!
Naked ftw!
Yeah they do look a nightmare to install lol some look great though
Actually, the glass has been shown to be much more durable than on the iPhone 8/8 Plus due to the larger camera cut out. It's been shown to survive pretty harsh falls of 6ft+.
It's not because of the larger camera cut out.
The X has a stainless steel frame, compared to the aluminum frame on the 8/8Plus which makes it more durable even though they all have glass backs.

So since making this post, I have now dropped my naked phone twice just this passed weekend. Once basically throwing it at my hardwood floor (zero damage) and the second time it fell off my lap getting out of the car HARD onto the concrete. To my amazement not only was it not cracked, there was zero scratched on the glass or stainless steel bands. I can def say this is as strong as apple says. The media is def making some stuff up. Both my S8 and S8 plus cracked on first falls that were pretty soft falls. Just amazed.
Side Note, Just went and picked up a Defender case lol. I'm not gonna press my luck

Yup. I am careful but sometimes life has other plans. Spigen Slim Armor case in Gunmetal. Also have a tempered glass screen protector. I like that I can just replace them every few months and get like a “fresh” screen. My husband likes to rock all his devices (iPhones, iPads) naked, and I get how nice it is to see and feel them that way, but I just can’t do it!
Space Grey iPhone X here and I keep it naked when it’s “me time” but I slip a Spigen clear TPU case on (takes like 2 sec) if I’m going shopping and use my phone as a shopping list, or going for drinks.. it’s kinda like putting on a jacket.. you can take it off when you get home. Another thing I’ve done is set up slicone coasters all over my condo and I just place my naked phone on them so they don’t slip’n slide or get scratched from random **** on a flat surface.
My partner makes me put on my case once I’ve had too many at home and start sluring.. I have been known to wake up on the floor with my phone scattered across the kitchen floor.. so I I don’t contests
