Caseless but not careless

[jovinteng]

So who's rocking a caseless iPhone 6/6+? How's it been so far? I'll be getting my iPhone 6 early February, and have no intention at all to put it in a case. I absolutely hate the look and feel of cases. I'd probably get a screen protector though, considering the iPhone's screen scratches easily. But heck, I'll be buying AppleCare+ anyways, so I guess there's really no need for all the extra accessories.

Your point been?

I want to know if it is worth buying a case and a screen protector. I've heard mixed responses on several forums, and don't really know what to expect. From what I've gathered, some people's iPhones are more scratch resistant while others not so much, and the only probable explanation was that it was due to some manufacturing issues because of such high demand that Apple had to rush production. Just wanted you guys who are going caseless with the 6 to share your experiences so far...

I use best skins ever, to improve the grip on the phone cos its too darn slippery. that's about it.

I guess most people use cases to protect the phone/screen from scratches. are you counting on applecare+ to exchange next time when your phone is scratched/cosmetically damaged? do note that they only allow exchange for accidental damage, not for any reason.

Can you find Best Skins Ever in local stores? Is the phone really that slippery? :/

And yes, I'm counting on AppleCare+ for when I accidentally drop my phone and shatter the screen/water damage. I realize that it does not cover some other things, but I like the fact that it extends the phone coverage for another year (considering my contract will last 2 years), and that it provides coverage for 2 accidental damages for a service fee of S$108. Would at least give me a better peace of mind...

I have never seen it sold locally before. buy online from the official site.

Are there any cases that do not have a raised lip? I feel that most cases for the iPhone 6 have one, and I don't really like that because it covers the curved edge of the phone.

Well it not all about protection.
To me it become a accessories not sure about other.
I love to change the cases for my ip6 to suit the situation.
Like a case with card slot for traveling when I keep my cc inside so I go wallet free.
If go resort or any place where there chances of water splash I will put on a water proof case.
Go for function / event: sleek and slim case came on
Go for parties then funky, flashy case get the vote.

Lolx it sound weird but I enjoy doing it.
Btw I got apple care plus protection for my IP 6 when I see iPhone screen crack with a case on. Fell flat screen down in a flip case and Screen protector, guess what? Screen still crack so to me cases and protector is to enhance the look of iPhone and make it feel personal.
All above IMO just like how some ppl like their thing done.
Different ppl different perspective.

I wonder if next time you have accidental damage, will they repair it rather than replace whole unit. For example if you drop and shatter screen, they only change the screen and the housing is still the same. In that case, perhaps all the cosmetic damage and dents cannot be 'cured' by AppleCare liao.

Better not, i got my screen cracked and its only normal usage.
Till now Apple is saying its accidental damage and not allowing one to one exchange.

I don't have apple care+...
