Other Is your new iPhone Xs or Xx Max going to go naked?

Bareback always

XS Max is too heavy to go naked. You need a case to lower the odds of damage in case it falls

Waiting for Caudabe Veil XT, after long consideration, I hope its really thin and feels good in hands.

i always use a thin solid black or thin clear case as i hate scratches of any kind

for my Xs Max i opted to go with a bumper and tempered glass on front and back. it's perfect. adds zero bulk, it matches the style/beauty of the phone, has slight raised lips on the back corners to protect that back glass.... it also helps with grip when holding it.

Just got an X and I am going to go without a case and see how it goes. I keep the phone in my right front pocket and keep nothing else there.

Interested to know those who have gone caseless how their phones are holding up? Also do you have AppleCare or not? Any regrets about going caseless?

I always get AppleCare 'just in case'.

I have never put a case on any of my iPhones, and that includes my X and XS Max. They hold up fantastically if you treat them like the precision piece of engineering they are, and don't treat them like a tv remote. I have a dedicated pocket for my phone (front left), I never set it on hard surfaces, and I don't drop it. Other than fingerprints, it looks like it did the day I got it.

I have Apple Care, but currently have my iPhone Xs Max in an Otterbox Defender.

It just makes the phone so much more functional. Apple Care at this point is for replacement long term.

My OCD is too bad for naked, although I wish it weren't.

I was the exact same way for years. Then I got real sick of having to always make sure there was a napkin around to set it on or sometimes just not be able to have the phone out or have to always have a cloth to set it on permanently on my desk (pre-dock days) so I started buying ultra thin Tozo/Peel translucent/frosted cases and have never looked back. Doesn't take away from the phone at all and I can just enjoy the phone so much more now and don't need to worry about scratches from setting it on hard surfaces - I no longer need to treat it like a family heirloom, but I still have no bulk whatsoever and my silver phones look great in ultra thin frosted white cases.

Don't use any skins cases or screen protectors on any of my phone's. I usually buy a case then end up taking it off almost immediately so I really need to stop wasting money on cases.

Yeah, there's no wrong or right way, we all use/outfit our phone the way that fits our lifestyle and our preferences. For me, always touching/feeling the phone itself rather than a case is worth the extra bit of effort I go through to keep it pristine. I totally understand that's not a modality everyone is willing to engage in.
