    I don't believe in phone cases. The same way I don't believe in covering a sofa with plastic, or the front of my car with a hideous leather bra.

        Only reason I am using one is because it was on the phone when I got it and it is very low profile.

        I am completely against screen protectors. Why look through a foggy finger print covered piece of plastic that distorts the screen when you pay all this fucking money for a retina display. Its like watching TV through beer bottles. just makes no sense. Most of the times the screen protectors get scratched more than the screen ever will.

          I pretty much always get a case. I generally go for a quality low profile case. Right now I have a Sedio case on my droid DNA. I used to be a big believer in QUALITY screen protectors, but this is the first time I have had a phone with gorilla glass screen. It has yet to pick up a scratch.

            Never used a case and my phone's front face has two holes in it. I call it the zombie phone.

              I have a Galaxy s3 and do not use a phone case. Before this phone I had 2 HTC Evo 4g's and cracked the whole screen on both with one drop each, so I probably should use one.

              I got my phone through Best Buy though and they have a program called Black Tie (or Geek Squad now) and I pay $9 a month and it will cover any damages to the phone, including water damage. I take it in, and they replace it.

                Phone cases are for little girls who like rhinestones.

                Get a phone with a Gorilla Glass screen.

                  My friend's DNA (just like mine) slipped off his lap when he was sitting and it cracked the screen. Gorilla Glass is great for resisting scratches, but not for impacts.

                    no case. I've kicked my galaxy nexus about 50 feet down a street, dropped it numerous times, and aside from a few scratches it's fine.

                      Iphone 4s checking in. No case. Been dropped, rolled, etc. Concrete, wood, linoleum floors.

                      Just small scratches. No problemo.

                        Screen protector, no case. My phone is big enough without the bulk of a case.

                              Agreed again.

                              Yeah, I'm mostly not getting a case because the phones are already big, and the cases ruin the aesthetic. These devices incorporate some of the best industrial design... why conceal it?

                              You have attained rock star status.

                              Gents, I am pleased that that there is no overwhelming indication that a case is necessary / mandatory. I totally get why some people use them, but it's good to know that I don't have to treat a phone like fine china.
