I’m curious about the percentage of people that don’t use cases.

I still have an iPhone 12 Pro Max and I like to use it with out a case a lot of the time but it does get slippery. I have very sweaty hands.

I don’t use a case just saying 🤷‍♂️

have you ever not broken a phone? because I have my last 3 stacked up collecting dust now because I have an issue, but they are unscratched /cracked! I do prefer the slimmer form factor and sleekness of a caseless phone though, I just can't do it.

Cracked the back glass but got it replaced (fell flat on its back on bathroom tiles. Tiles won). I’ve been caseless for a while now on the 12 pro. I drop it at least once a week, sometimes outside on concrete. It’s held up quite well. A few dings and scratches but overall I’m satisfied with the build quality.

I perfer to go caseless but the ARC case is a nice balance between caseless and a case

I did until I had kids. Maybe once they’re teenagers I can finally go back

I always tell people I know to use cases because everyone I know who doesn't use a case invariably shatters the phone screen.

I don’t use a case or screen protector. They’re too expensive, and offer no additional protection imo. Phones these days are pretty durable. My phone rides in my pocket with my keys and the screen is fine. Some pretty minor paint scuffs on the aluminum near the bezel and that’s it. Phone cases are unnecessary

“Offer no additional protection”

Well that’s just flat out wrong, if you’re buying a decent case like an Otterbox

Bold statements lol. My phone would be chipped to shit from all the cement drops without my clear case

Plus, I’d rather carry a cracked screen than an ugly af screen protector and an inelegant phone case.

It’s like buying a ferrari and wrap it into a case so it doesn’t get bumps when you’re driving.

not just saying this for the sake of arguing, but people definitely do buy expensive vinyl wraps for this reason. helps with resale value when they're ready for an upgrade/trade

Oh I didn’t know this, so maybe it was a bad analogy. I don’t know much about cars but it looks decent from a quick google search.

What I was suggesting is, it’s not worth making the phone ugly just to not crack it.

New phones are pretty durable.
