Actually, that's what my coworker does. Everytime he gets his phone out of his backpack, he has it in it's original box and carries it like that. I find that weird although his phone gets never scratched
im on a super tight budget and i never use a case. I just use a glass screen protector so that i dont have to see all of those scratches on my display.
I don't use cases... I don't exactly have the money to throw at new phones either, haha. I just really dislike covering up the phone. Much like him, I buy mostly based on the design, and feel.
Brock Crow yep you got the right 👍 it’s a lot different when we normal phones users have typically one phone so we can’t afford to be upgrading to a brand new phone every year
all these RUclipsrs rock thanks for the input you guys do give I bte use a slim hard plastic case and screen protector i had a Star trek phone hard case it was awesome
Did you notice what that woman said? “It depends on the phone I want to use today” Oh, no shit she doesn’t always use cases, she got to choose from. (No hate btw)
@@omarkharnivall2439 yeah but i think their daily drivers much be the one's that they got with their own money. For instance Zack's using his device for 2yrs now. It just depends on which phone they like to use. So they definitely would try to protect it with a case or something

You need to have a dedicated pocket for your phone. don't put other crap in there with it. I find the worse problem is leaning against the phone, or having it put pressure on it when you stretch your leg out or are moving around. these phones have gotten so big, that's the newest problem.
I have the Samsung Galaxy S7. JerryRigEverything has tested the S7 Edge, the bend test on the S7 Edge basically had hardly any difference on the structural strength before and after the bend test. Since the S7 is smaller, then it would survive better, simply because it covers less surface area and most likely, it has the same measurements inside involving the thickness of the structural involvements of the phone. So I'm pretty sure that what you're talking about, it literally shouldn't do basically anything to a flagship phone.
I agree way to big and for us ladies that like to carry them in our pockets...they are almost non pocketable. We need smaller phones or bigger pockets😉
I used to wear cases on my phones till I realized I have never dropped it so I went caseless on my next phone and still haven’t dropped it. It depends how careful you are with your phone.
I use wallet case for phone, not because of me having a fear of dropping my phone more about having it in my bag...there are some sharp objects in there... Like keys...they are always in the bag.mirror...umbrella , metal details on makeup bag and regular wallet, and sometimes other stuff.
Naked here. I share Michael Fisher's same thoughts on cases. Call me crazy, but I just don't see the point of making a phone with premium materials to just put a cheap piece of plastic/rubber on it to protect it. I don't put anything on my car to protect it because I like how my car looks.
Joseph Rego Also the real selling point on a smartphone is its design, cause lets be honest, nowadays every smartphone can do everything expected on a smartphone to do. The biggest difference (almost the only difference) is design, and cover it just doesn't seem right...
Exactly. Why protect something when you're never gonna look at it?? At least IDK, put a skin after it gets badly scratched and looks really bad, but I see no point (other than resale) in protecting anything if you're never gonna be able to appreciate what you're protecting in the first place.
I think you can't compare something that is unnoticeable (3M clear film protection) with something that will always be visible (any kind of protection on a smartphone). Also you aren't touching the paint on your car all the time, but you ARE touching your phone ALL the time, so there's a difference with the feel also.
Lincoln Stanley Yeah. I really do feel there is a definite bias here for the RUclipsrs with multiple unlocked phones they can just switch to should they catastrophicly destroy their current primary. edit: grammar
Lincoln Stanley yes poor them. They can't decide weather to use a s8 ,pixel or iPhone 7s(8). Truly they are tormented. Especially that dude with a scratch 1 mm long.
When I'm at home, no case. My phone has a glass back with metal rails and it feels GREAT in my hands and I love to just sit and admire the quality and thin bezels. When I leave home tho, I slap the case on.
So you just look at your phone like eye candy? I guess when your done browsing the same posts from different social media sites you need to do something to make yourself feel special
@@deathbydeviceable I have a case for my s9 but sometimes I find myself self taking it off to admire the beauty. It's just to sexy of a phone not to look.
As a wise man once said "Phones are made of glass, and glass breaks" I always use otterbox, but then again, I drive a concrete truck for a living. I still have my old Lg P500h in a case
They are not plastic because phone companies will not have sales if they sell durable phones. Its their strategy to make glass one so people will break, repair and rebuy phones.
buy an outdated flagship phone. Like the S7 jerry uses. Phones get pretty cheap over time since there are phones being updated and made like crazy in the market. Wait for an offer and you can get your hands on some pretty sweet tech.
I did not use a case on my iPhone 6S Plus.. however, on my S7 Edge I do use one.. not because of protection, but because of three other reasons. Samsung's own case actually (see point 3). 1. Prevents me from accidentally touching the screen at the wrong place, as it is easier to hold with one hand. It has terrible palm rejection.. so accidentally hitting things on the side happens a lot without one.. especially with one hand usage. 2. Better grip, compared to the glass. So it is easier to hold. 3. The case is the Samsung Lens Case, meaning it comes with two lenses that I can pop on and off the phone when taking photos. I really do love the wide angle lens on it, as it also does not add any black borders to the picture like unofficial lenses often do.
I am so glad that only one guy said he didn't use a case, and not to be like him. Before I use a phone, I always have a screen protector to put on directly after taking the phone out of the packaging. Then the phone goes in a case. That way there's no chance of screen damage prior to the protector, and no chance of the phone breaking. I say that it would of course be that one time you use a phone without that case where you would drop it. Also, I buy my phones. MKBHD made a video about using phones without a case, but the guy has drawers full of phones. Not that big of a deal if he breaks one, but big deal to me.
Case? Never. I buy a slim phone because I want it to be slim. I buy a nice colored phone because I want it to look nice. I buy a nice textured phone because I want it to be nice to hold. Also, under heavy pressure, my phone tends to heat while covered. Also, about screen protectors. They look and feel terribly bad for me. Nothing is quite like perfectly flat Gorilla Glass surface if my screen. How they look? Horribly. Dust gathering at the edges of them is awful. My phone looks all right after 1,5 year. Screen never cracked or even scratched from dropping, even tho I dropped it a few times pretty badly, nothing happened from carrying around in pocket or anything else. Back has some small scratches, not too bad tho. I've never seen a reason to put it in a case, never thought about putting screen protector on. I'm doing just fine without them.
Dmytro Bogdan hahahaahah that's true I was thinking about scratches this way a long time ago but my phones had a lot of scratches and I tend to change them like my t-shirts so basically I do carry a case just not to scratch it and when I get home I take it
Dmytro Bogdan I was replying to your comment about how history of scratches like there are 200 scratches randomly appear no memory of when it got there so there's no story behind each scratch and fingernails and case scratch !
If i was a famous tech youtuber that companies send me all the new smartphones to review i would never use a case or screen protector. Its all comes comes to how your financial situation
Tamir DrawUp yea that pretty much sums it up. I never used a case until the 6+ came out. Before that I knew if I broke a screeen I could sell the phone and buy a new one relatively inexpensively. But with the higher cost of the 6+ and AT&T changing things that wasn’t going to be possible so a case a screen protector went on.
I agree I love having my phone naked, I used to have a skin on it however I removed it, not due to pealing or imperfections or anything just that I wanted to touch the premium materials again.
Just because you have the money doesnt mean you can/have to throw $1000 at a new phone all the time because you break it so often. Some people care about their belongins and dont take things for granted
I get a case but not only for protection but so I can actually hold the phone without registering accidental touches on the side of the screen every 6 seconds.
Y'all playing with fire. I slapped an otter box and tempered glass screen protector on my pixel 2 and it's in prime condition. After a year+ of heavy use
What screen protector are you using and have you had to replace it at all? I just got the p3xl .. and my favorite case isn't available for this phone. So I want to get a Spigen tough armor with tempered glass screen protector.. women's pockets are dangerous and so are purses, kids, and dogs with tile floors lol. So I'm extremely paranoid of breaking it!
No, we're not playing with fire. At least I don't think most of us are. I used my galaxy note 4 it's whole life with literally only a screen protector. (And I got it used, and the previous owner didn't use a case nor a screen protector) And guess what, it was flawless, just like your pixel 2 is, except a couple of scratches on the screen from the previous owner. It was in such great condition only for the simple fucking reason that I dropped it like once or twice (from about 2 feet, with no damage) in almost three years of ownership. People that do not use protection/only a screen protector, but that know they might drop their phones quite often indeed play with fire. But most of the people I know that act like me rarely ever drop their phone, and they know that it's not very likely for them to break their phones despite the lack of protection.
From a technical perspective there are several reasons to have a case. Electrocution being the most freaky one. An increasing number of people are being electrocuted by badly designed chargers. The metal rim around the phone is referenced to the circuitry 0V rail and makes a perfectly shaped hand electrode that you will NOT be able to let go of. The phone will charge as normal because it sees the 5V, but if your body bridges between the live case and ground you will potentially pass a fatal level of current. The more savoury reasons to have a case are that the tiny amount of extra shock absorption when you drop the phone will significantly increase the chance of avoiding a very expensive broken screen. Not that you'll drop it so easily, as a good case will provide a better grip.
@@AwesomeFinish does happen, speaking from experience. Somehow Got myself a shitty charger, left my phone on the ground to let it charge, few mins later when I went to grab my phone I got a little shock, it wasnt too much but the shock was there. It was an iphone 5s.
You need to understand that phone charger is switched mode rectifier, rectifying voltage of 240V down to 5V that goes to your phone. Using basic OHM law, it goes : I=V/R. I - current (50mA across the heart can5be fatal) and it is current that kills you, not the voltage V - Voltage R - resistance of your body (skin) So, I = 5/1000 = 0.005A - 5mA. Since current required to become dangerous for the human is 50mA, you can see that 5mA in theory can not be dangerous for you, unless you get 2 needles, connect them to charger, stab them on each side of the heart and let the current flow and see what happens. But in normal circumstances, you see that current is too small to kill.
what about screen protectors, any good reason to use them..? i mostly want zero scratches on my display, not even microscratches. will any screen protector help with that or am I better off without one?
still, most of them don't feel like it's really important to protect their phone since they'll be switching between phones regularly. for the common people that have only one phone for use, ruining it is a risk not worth taking.
for us who are sure that we are not gonna buy another phone in at least 3 years, I'm pretty confident to say that I use a case + a screen protector and damn if there is any other security thing, I will definitely apply that as well.
I'm use screen protection all the time, because when it scratch, i just need to replace the screen protection rather than spend more money to repair my screen, even though nowadays phone protected by Gorilla Glass or Sapphire coating, it still gonna scratch after 1-2 years of normal use, and i'm kind of guy who only replace my phone after 3 - 4 years, so i want to see my phone in a mint condition as long as i can.
My 10 day old naked note 9 slid of my desk onto the corner of my drawer and cracked the screen. Now with Samsung for a £239 repair. Screen protector ordered. Hurts when you spend £1100 for a phone (512/dual sim)
Man I just bought the note 9 today and I don't want to break the screen like I did on my old S7 Edge. But I hate so much the extra layer on the screen ! Did you have a case when it breaks ? Plus I'm worried about the S-pen precision with a screen protector and the feeling of it on the edge of the curved display.
SilverSniperz Umm. . by the time it get loose i would have bought another one....but Yeah...you have a good point man...but you know i also love to see my phone naked sometimes😉
I have an iPhone 6s Plus. I have always used both screen protectors and cases. And that's due to iPhone having a really good resell value. I can upgrade every year to the newest iPhone model by selling my phone and adding between 100-200$. And that's because my phones are always in a flawless shape due to the protection.
Case I get, but you still use a screen protector? with gorilla glass 5? I haven't used a screen protector on my S7, had it a year and not a single scratch.
Totally agreed with Mr Mobile... Every skin or case can make me crazy because of ruining the design of the device. I can't stand it so i use plastic screen protector, because of the occasional drops. I rarely can scratch the screen but i occasionally drop it and it helps to prevent screen from cracking.
Plastic screen protection, replace every six months or so. Vinyl protection like dbrand or another vinyl. A perfect fit, lightweight and thin case for daily use. A bulky protective case for use in risky enviroments (trekking, mountain, beach, a trip backpacking, etc).
I'm one of the clumsiest humans on Earth. I wrap my phones in the toughest cases I can get my hands on, else they wouldn't survive a month with me. Edit: I also use screen protectors.
@@Alisha21210 If you want a good case, I recommend the spigen rugged armor, very good case. I don't use any, but my sister has that exact one, she actually threw her phone two times without any damages. (She wanted to throw a pillow at her bf and didn't realize the phone was close to the pillow and it basically got sent with the pillow, the pillow did hit her bf but the phone hit the wall. And yeah, that dumb mistake happened twice.)
This is relevant to me - the more careful I am the more likely I am to drop my phone, but when I am careless I never really drop my phone unless I do on purpose
I agree about using no case because you want to truly experience the design. I don't use case when I'm at home/sitting in office - but I put rhinoshield bumper when I'm going out. A phone is a major investment for me and I can't afford the damage/repair/replace my phone if something happens. I'm careful with my phones, and I use my phone for 2-3 years. However, sometimes shit happens u know. Better protect it
That's really dumb, even dumber than the idiots who never use cases because you clearly understand the importance of a case, but you still go to the trouble of taking off a case to use at home/office, which is most of the time. Do you really think you'll never drop your phone at home or in the office?
encycl07pedia You should be responsible enough to look after your phone. If your carrying a beer in your hand, your not going to drop it are you? So why would you drop an expensive phone?
@@Achilles053 That's like saying people who drive shouldn't wear seatbelts because they should know better than to get into a car wreck. Are you always this stupid?
I've learned my lesson! The back of my LG G4 leather is scratched to hell and the edges on the front are as well. I had my HTC Evo 3D in an Otter Box in 2 separate Defender cases, that phone lasted me 7 years!!! Still works and no scratches till this day. Time to go back to what works, my nudist days are over.
I don't get cases and why they're so popular. Sure - they protect your phone. But so does a blanket over your couch, or requesting that your friends take their shoes off when they come in. Or keeping your TV remote in a plastic bag. Or having that separate tableware just for special occasions and eating every day on some old, cracked plates so that the new ones are safe. It's just low. Also it looks disgusting while keeping your phone looking good... so after 2 years when the phone's no longer useful you can shove it into some drawer and forget about it... or maybe sell it for $50. Great.
Mateusz Wojtkiewicz well, if you're a millionaire don't get a case or protector then. but if you were poor (meaning not being able to buy another phone if the current one breaks) then you would want to keep your phone alive as long as possible.
This is such a stupid comment. It typically is with you everywhere you go. Unless you're constantly sitting at home all day every day it's going to need to go out into the world where a million things can scratch, scuff, bend, and smash your expensive and usually essential device at any time. Spend $20 on your $600+ phone so you if you're unlucky one day you don't have to buy another one.
Ever dropped a phone that is less than a year old? And asking people to remove their shoes when they come round has nothing to do with the flooring, it has more to do with where the shoes have been
Personally, the best middle-ground for me is to use a clear silicone case. It doesnt hide the beauty of your phone, but adds a little bit of protection.
I used to take this approach, but since I live in a desert city, sand and dust gets into a silicone case fairly easily due to the softness of the silicone and so I’ve had some nasty scratches on my phones.
I like to use a skin, with a case and a screenprotector! The reason for that is because I buy a phone myself and when I want to move on, I like to resell my old phone and I like it to look almost as new as when I got it. I currently have the Samsung Galaxy S10+ with a D-Brand carbon skin on the back (not on the camera module, because I don't like the look of that and the camera module has a really small chance to scratch in my opinion). The case I use with it is a Mous clear case, it has a clear hard plastic back, so you can see the skin and it won't get yellow. The surounding of the skin is black plastic which is a little bit more flexibel than the back and the inside of the case has shock absorbers. Then for the screenprotector, I use a screenprotector that gets customly cut out by a shop to fit the case. It is a soft plastic screenprotector, so it can wrap around the edges on the galaxy phone. Furthermore this screenprotector has a self healing kinda thing going on, so al the minor scratches disappear after a little time and use. This all doesn't cost that much, I like the look of it and they keep the phone looking almost brand new! I got all this protection for around €75,- and it protects like everything! So to round everything up, I use a d-brand skin (without camera skin), a clear back Mous case and a plastic screenprotector (from Mediamarkt).
I buy phones for long term so not concerned about resale. I expect the phone to have good grip and a scratch resistant screen. That's all the protection I need because I am very careful with my devices. But this obsession with glass is crazy. It is both fragile and slippery. And gorilla glass 5 seems to scratch easily.
I had my phone for almost 2 years and always used a case and I never ever dropped it. So I thought screw it, I'm ditching the case. And I dropped it 2 weeks later I dropped it of course, shattering the front screen.
I don't think so. I bought a Nexus 6 on Black Friday 2015 for 200$ and have had it for more than a year. It has some scuffs and a couple of dents because I have dropped it 3-4 times. My point is that you buy a phone for the way it looks and feels in the hand too, why cover it and immediately delete one of the reasons that pushed you to buy it?
Adam David Thank. you for mentioning this! The lower income and money conscious people use both because they just can't take the risk of accidentally destroying a very critical piece of their day to day life! I sent a phone through a wash cycle and I can't describe how upset I was loosing almost everything on that phone. I am also the type of person to drop phones. My small hands just don't work with the newer larger phones! I HAVE to use a hybrid case and a screen protector (my phone often shares spaces with my keys). I just don't have the money to risk repairing/replacing a phone without good notice to set aside money. I have always expected to use my phones for 1- 3 years. So I really need to be aware of what I'm using to protect it. Hell, part of buying a new phone for me IS shopping to see if there are decent cases for the phone I'm interested in!
The Guy They are ok, but a full case will obviously protect your phone more. If the phone lands funny or hits a rock or other object when it falls, then a bumper won't protect as much with situations like that.
I use cases but I don’t like the screen protector, it just feels really nice without it. It’s probably because I used plastic protectors in the past so I always have this in my mind. Glass may feel just as nice.
Honestly, what bugs me about some of these opinions is they don't take *money* into account. For the average person who leases their phone, or can't afford to pay to fix a shattered screen, protection should not be about aesthetics. It's about being financially responsible. I know they aren't the average consumers, but it still bugs me.
Here's why I use a nice, inexpensive, flexible, clear, great grip skin instead of a hard, expensive, bulky & little to no grip shell. 1. The skin unlike the hard shell, doesn't conceal the beautiful design of the phone, making it 3x better looking & feeling of the nice slick feel of your smartphone like how it was meant to look & feel. 2. The skin adds so much more grip to the phone, so instead of worrying about if the $100 shell with little to no grip will protect your phone on a 15-20% likelihood drop, you'll instead be worrying about the phone turning off at 1% while you dash for the charger. 3. Unlike the expensive bulky shell, the inexpensive skin doesn't trap the heat as nearly as much as the big, bulky shell does. So if the weather is a little hot, and you're intensely using your phone or even charging it, expect all that heat to be stuck within the phone because of that thick shell covering all around the back & battery. 4. And finally, like I mentioned above, it's just so much more cheaper & actually more beneficial in the grand scheme of themes. Why spend a small fortune on a hard shell on the off chance you do end up dropping it, which has as much protection as a football helmet does to a player's brain upon impact, when you can spend a couple of bucks on a nice premium skin that looks great and has such a great grip that increases your hold onto the phone drastically? I rest my case. (Pun intended)
dean yilmaz I mean the cheap cases are cheap and for me provides none to very little protection so that's why I use cases that are taller than the phone so when it falls it hits the case than the cheap cases which is only tall as the screen
@@wildreams I already bought a new phone. But keep watching his videos for these deeper grooves at level 7. Also wanted to see who is like me. I use a case on my phones but no screen protector. My Nokia 8 still doesn't have noticeable scratches after 2 years (my older Nokia has one scratch I believe) and my Samsung Note10+ is currently with the plastic screen protector it came with. I almost removed it but decided it can stay. I doubt I can put screen protector better than them even if it's a better quality one. My secret is try not to drop the phone :D and I put only my phone in that pocket. No coins, keys or anything else at all in the same pocket.
@@123ftw1 I'm a bit like the first guy in the video, I always carry my phone naked. I will say that I'm also pretty protective when it comes to my phones, so I've never had a phone break or even had a scratch on the screen, and have never had a problem reselling them. Like you I also never have anything besides my phone in the same pocket, which helps a lot. I will say though, that after buying an iPhone 11 and seeing their repair prices, I have been considering a case to protect the back glass :D
I always use a case and a tempered glass screen protector. I have multiple cases for my Note 9, The UAG Monarch and Spigen rugged armor are my two favorites but I always make sure I get cases with good drop protection otherwise there would be no point in getting one. I'm also rocking a Olesit Tempered Glass (which is a whitestone dome knock off).
There you go bro, yeah i feel like tempered glass screen protector is a must even with a case cause if you drop it face down on pavement with gravel on top, aint no lip from a case is saving your shit
Never have and never will use a case or a screen protector on my phone. it was designed to look this way and that's exactly how I liked it and that's why I bought it. I think it's ridiculous when people buy the slimmest phone they can find and then put it in an Otterbox and make it the thickest phone you've ever seen.
Yup like why would I buy an expensive top of the line device to bulk it up like that. I don't deserve to have it if I can't take care of it like it is.
Case and screen protector is always the best way to go. Some don't care to protect the good looks and condition of the phone. Others like myself prefer to protect it so it continues to look as nice as was intended. The best approach is obvious. Protect it when out and about, enjoy naked when home.
@@mollerbt I disagree with everything you say. do you put a cover on your car when you're out and about driving to protect it and then take it off when you get home. What about your shoes? What about your watch? What about anything you pay lots of money for that you think it's nice. A phone is literally the only thing people put cases and protectors on for some odd reason. Somehow these case manufacturers convinced all of you that you need these in order to operate your phone. Why buy something that you really like if all you're going to do is cover it up that's like having a hot girlfriend and putting her in a parka. Just stupid
@@riomendoza1111 Personally, I think its stupid that people are willing to drop $1k+ on a device they handle everyday and travel with it all over the place, and not bother to use a case/screen protector for the sake of aesthetics. Especially when the cost to get a decent case and a tempered glass/sapphire screen protector is literally 4-7% against the cost of a new xs. A bulked up phone will always more aesthetically pleasing to me than a shattered screen. You can take a phone out of the case, but it's gonna require a little more work to get rid of that fucked up screen... @xavier brenneman "lots of people drop their phones, I never do". Yeah, that's gonna work until it doesn't lmfao.

This is the best comment.
You need to have a dedicated pocket for your phone. don't put other crap in there with it. I find the worse problem is leaning against the phone, or having it put pressure on it when you stretch your leg out or are moving around. these phones have gotten so big, that's the newest problem.
I have the Samsung Galaxy S7. JerryRigEverything has tested the S7 Edge, the bend test on the S7 Edge basically had hardly any difference on the structural strength before and after the bend test. Since the S7 is smaller, then it would survive better, simply because it covers less surface area and most likely, it has the same measurements inside involving the thickness of the structural involvements of the phone. So I'm pretty sure that what you're talking about, it literally shouldn't do basically anything to a flagship phone.
mikedrz that what I do
My left pocket is my smartphone pocket. Nothing but my phone goes in there.
Tyler Aschen Right one for me. Only the phone and paper money can go there.
I agree way to big and for us ladies that like to carry them in our pockets...they are almost non pocketable. We need smaller phones or bigger pockets😉
I put my phone in at least 5 inches of bubble wrap
What?! Only 5 itches?! My personal reference is more than 7 itches , 10 when I'm going for a run
:^)
OMG 😱 that's a prismatic big protection case 😳!
A leather case and glass screen protector is a good option 👍...
I used to wear cases on my phones till I realized I have never dropped it so I went caseless on my next phone and still haven’t dropped it. It depends how careful you are with your phone.
I don’t drop my either I just like the way cases look
I never dropped my phone with a case so i took the case off and the next day it shattered when it fell out of my pocket
Accidents happen
I use wallet case for phone, not because of me having a fear of dropping my phone more about having it in my bag...there are some sharp objects in there... Like keys...they are always in the bag.mirror...umbrella , metal details on makeup bag and regular wallet, and sometimes other stuff.
I got iPhone 11 Pro 2 months ago and dropped it about 4x already

You're insane.
Naked here. I share Michael Fisher's same thoughts on cases. Call me crazy, but I just don't see the point of making a phone with premium materials to just put a cheap piece of plastic/rubber on it to protect it. I don't put anything on my car to protect it because I like how my car looks.
Joseph Rego Also the real selling point on a smartphone is its design, cause lets be honest, nowadays every smartphone can do everything expected on a smartphone to do. The biggest difference (almost the only difference) is design, and cover it just doesn't seem right...
Exactly. Why protect something when you're never gonna look at it??
At least IDK, put a skin after it gets badly scratched and looks really bad, but I see no point (other than resale) in protecting anything if you're never gonna be able to appreciate what you're protecting in the first place.
O um, no thanks. 👍
O I'm going to get off this exit and take the high road. Take care brother! ✌️
I think you can't compare something that is unnoticeable (3M clear film protection) with something that will always be visible (any kind of protection on a smartphone). Also you aren't touching the paint on your car all the time, but you ARE touching your phone ALL the time, so there's a difference with the feel also.
I fear that my phone will get scratch, so i refuse to buy a phone.

They are not plastic because phone companies will not have sales if they sell durable phones. Its their strategy to make glass one so people will break, repair and rebuy phones.

I did not use a case on my iPhone 6S Plus.. however, on my S7 Edge I do use one.. not because of protection, but because of three other reasons. Samsung's own case actually (see point 3).
1. Prevents me from accidentally touching the screen at the wrong place, as it is easier to hold with one hand. It has terrible palm rejection.. so accidentally hitting things on the side happens a lot without one.. especially with one hand usage.
2. Better grip, compared to the glass. So it is easier to hold.
3. The case is the Samsung Lens Case, meaning it comes with two lenses that I can pop on and off the phone when taking photos. I really do love the wide angle lens on it, as it also does not add any black borders to the picture like unofficial lenses often do.
Aleksander Hoff Damn. My S6 Edge Plus has perfect palm rejection lol.
I dropped my phone couple weeks back while removing my case, and it broke. Sad.
Always use protection guys, especially if you are broke
Not broke but having protection saves time and increases the chances of surriving the drop
lakshya grover exactly, my iphone 6 is still in service since 2015 because of protection
@@Ramstein31469 iphone 6s in my home
so the case made you drop your phone lol
Yeah, if you hadn't had the case, you wouldn't have dropped it
I am so glad that only one guy said he didn't use a case, and not to be like him. Before I use a phone, I always have a screen protector to put on directly after taking the phone out of the packaging. Then the phone goes in a case. That way there's no chance of screen damage prior to the protector, and no chance of the phone breaking. I say that it would of course be that one time you use a phone without that case where you would drop it. Also, I buy my phones. MKBHD made a video about using phones without a case, but the guy has drawers full of phones. Not that big of a deal if he breaks one, but big deal to me.
I also find the grip of cases more comfortable. In my case (pun intended) the iPhone 5s feels hard and sharp without a case around it.
Do you cover a TV remote as well? Like a grandma. :) Phone's body/housing and gorilla glass are protection of the phone components already.
Case? Never. I buy a slim phone because I want it to be slim. I buy a nice colored phone because I want it to look nice. I buy a nice textured phone because I want it to be nice to hold. Also, under heavy pressure, my phone tends to heat while covered.
Also, about screen protectors. They look and feel terribly bad for me. Nothing is quite like perfectly flat Gorilla Glass surface if my screen. How they look? Horribly. Dust gathering at the edges of them is awful.
My phone looks all right after 1,5 year. Screen never cracked or even scratched from dropping, even tho I dropped it a few times pretty badly, nothing happened from carrying around in pocket or anything else. Back has some small scratches, not too bad tho. I've never seen a reason to put it in a case, never thought about putting screen protector on. I'm doing just fine without them.
@@lyopschet7230 you talk like that because you've never scratched a brand new phone. It breaks your heart forever.
for me, every scratch has its history and that makes my phone unique.
Dmytro Bogdan hahahaahah that's true I was thinking about scratches this way a long time ago but my phones had a lot of scratches and I tend to change them like my t-shirts so basically I do carry a case just not to scratch it and when I get home I take it
George Diamant the process of "undressing" is tedious sometimes :)
oh shit. why are their scratches all over my phone? wtf is the history, they suddenly appeared. damnit I have so many scratches wth.
Zetsuke4 I mean major scratches, try to clean your pockets out of sand sometimes :)
Dmytro Bogdan I was replying to your comment about how history of scratches like there are 200 scratches randomly appear no memory of when it got there so there's no story behind each scratch and fingernails and case scratch !
If i was a famous tech youtuber that companies send me all the new smartphones to review i would never use a case or screen protector. Its all comes comes to how your financial situation
Tamir DrawUp yea that pretty much sums it up. I never used a case until the 6+ came out. Before that I knew if I broke a screeen I could sell the phone and buy a new one relatively inexpensively. But with the higher cost of the 6+ and AT&T changing things that wasn’t going to be possible so a case a screen protector went on.
I agree I love having my phone naked, I used to have a skin on it however I removed it, not due to pealing or imperfections or anything just that I wanted to touch the premium materials again.
I have the iPhone X without a case nor a screen protector. I'm sure I'll never drop it. Dbrand skin for grip
Just because you have the money doesnt mean you can/have to throw $1000 at a new phone all the time because you break it so often. Some people care about their belongins and dont take things for granted
I prefer to use a case for a more comfortable grip on my cheap phone
I get a case but not only for protection but so I can actually hold the phone without registering accidental touches on the side of the screen every 6 seconds.

Y'all playing with fire. I slapped an otter box and tempered glass screen protector on my pixel 2 and it's in prime condition. After a year+ of heavy use
What screen protector are you using and have you had to replace it at all? I just got the p3xl .. and my favorite case isn't available for this phone. So I want to get a Spigen tough armor with tempered glass screen protector.. women's pockets are dangerous and so are purses, kids, and dogs with tile floors lol. So I'm extremely paranoid of breaking it!
This is the only way to go for me. Optimum protection > broken phone
No, we're not playing with fire. At least I don't think most of us are.
I used my galaxy note 4 it's whole life with literally only a screen protector. (And I got it used, and the previous owner didn't use a case nor a screen protector) And guess what, it was flawless, just like your pixel 2 is, except a couple of scratches on the screen from the previous owner.
It was in such great condition only for the simple fucking reason that I dropped it like once or twice (from about 2 feet, with no damage) in almost three years of ownership.
People that do not use protection/only a screen protector, but that know they might drop their phones quite often indeed play with fire.
But most of the people I know that act like me rarely ever drop their phone, and they know that it's not very likely for them to break their phones despite the lack of protection.
Except the value of your phone is still dropping month by month
Carried an iPhone 6S daily for four full years and sold it in excellent condition.
From a technical perspective there are several reasons to have a case. Electrocution being the most freaky one. An increasing number of people are being electrocuted by badly designed chargers. The metal rim around the phone is referenced to the circuitry 0V rail and makes a perfectly shaped hand electrode that you will NOT be able to let go of. The phone will charge as normal because it sees the 5V, but if your body bridges between the live case and ground you will potentially pass a fatal level of current.
The more savoury reasons to have a case are that the tiny amount of extra shock absorption when you drop the phone will significantly increase the chance of avoiding a very expensive broken screen. Not that you'll drop it so easily, as a good case will provide a better grip.
lol, there's no way a phone, connected to a milliamp transformer, can develop enough amperage to fatally shock or even give much of a buzz at all.
@@AwesomeFinish does happen, speaking from experience. Somehow Got myself a shitty charger, left my phone on the ground to let it charge, few mins later when I went to grab my phone I got a little shock, it wasnt too much but the shock was there. It was an iphone 5s.
@@disturbedhooligan1488 You got fatally shocked by it?
You need to understand that phone charger is switched mode rectifier, rectifying voltage of 240V down to 5V that goes to your phone.
Using basic OHM law, it goes :
I=V/R.
I - current (50mA across the heart can5be fatal) and it is current that kills you, not the voltage
V - Voltage
R - resistance of your body (skin)
So, I = 5/1000 = 0.005A - 5mA.
Since current required to become dangerous for the human is 50mA, you can see that 5mA in theory can not be dangerous for you, unless you get 2 needles, connect them to charger, stab them on each side of the heart and let the current flow and see what happens.
But in normal circumstances, you see that current is too small to kill.
what about screen protectors, any good reason to use them..?
i mostly want zero scratches on my display, not even microscratches. will any screen protector help with that or am I better off without one?
Also, I would say most RUclips reviews don't really need to protect their phones since a lot of them get free ones from the phone manufacturers.
+James Neilson I've never gotten a free phone from a mainstream manufacturer. I'd say most of us youtubers still buy our phones.
Maybe because of what you do to the phones lol
still, most of them don't feel like it's really important to protect their phone since they'll be switching between phones regularly. for the common people that have only one phone for use, ruining it is a risk not worth taking.
Well most of us cannot afford to purchase 10 smartphones a year.
Syukri Lajin
for us who are sure that we are not gonna buy another phone in at least 3 years, I'm pretty confident to say that I use a case + a screen protector and damn if there is any other security thing, I will definitely apply that as well.
I'm use screen protection all the time, because when it scratch, i just need to replace the screen protection rather than spend more money to repair my screen, even though nowadays phone protected by Gorilla Glass or Sapphire coating, it still gonna scratch after 1-2 years of normal use, and i'm kind of guy who only replace my phone after 3 - 4 years, so i want to see my phone in a mint condition as long as i can.

I have an iPhone 6s Plus. I have always used both screen protectors and cases. And that's due to iPhone having a really good resell value. I can upgrade every year to the newest iPhone model by selling my phone and adding between 100-200$. And that's because my phones are always in a flawless shape due to the protection.
I always use a screen protector as well as a case...
Case I get, but you still use a screen protector? with gorilla glass 5?
I haven't used a screen protector on my S7, had it a year and not a single scratch.
Actually Gorilla Glass 3 is even harder to scratch than Gorilla Glass 5
Totally agreed with Mr Mobile... Every skin or case can make me crazy because of ruining the design of the device. I can't stand it so i use plastic screen protector, because of the occasional drops. I rarely can scratch the screen but i occasionally drop it and it helps to prevent screen from cracking.
I've never ever used a screen protection or a case. I totally agree with MrMobile, we have the same opinion.
Plastic screen protection, replace every six months or so. Vinyl protection like dbrand or another vinyl. A perfect fit, lightweight and thin case for daily use. A bulky protective case for use in risky enviroments (trekking, mountain, beach, a trip backpacking, etc).
i've been a case-less person since day one.. feels good to feel the desing and texture.

I agree about using no case because you want to truly experience the design. I don't use case when I'm at home/sitting in office - but I put rhinoshield bumper when I'm going out. A phone is a major investment for me and I can't afford the damage/repair/replace my phone if something happens. I'm careful with my phones, and I use my phone for 2-3 years. However, sometimes shit happens u know. Better protect it
This is one of the most rational comments here. Well done.
So true😊
That's really dumb, even dumber than the idiots who never use cases because you clearly understand the importance of a case, but you still go to the trouble of taking off a case to use at home/office, which is most of the time. Do you really think you'll never drop your phone at home or in the office?

I had my HTC Evo 3D in an Otter Box in 2 separate Defender cases, that phone lasted me 7 years!!! Still works and no scratches till this day. Time to go back to what works, my nudist days are over.
I don't get cases and why they're so popular. Sure - they protect your phone. But so does a blanket over your couch, or requesting that your friends take their shoes off when they come in. Or keeping your TV remote in a plastic bag. Or having that separate tableware just for special occasions and eating every day on some old, cracked plates so that the new ones are safe. It's just low. Also it looks disgusting while keeping your phone looking good... so after 2 years when the phone's no longer useful you can shove it into some drawer and forget about it... or maybe sell it for $50. Great.
Mateusz Wojtkiewicz well, if you're a millionaire don't get a case or protector then. but if you were poor (meaning not being able to buy another phone if the current one breaks) then you would want to keep your phone alive as long as possible.

Counterpoint to “covers design intent”: iPhone camera bulge and thinness is CLEARLY designed to be offset with a case.
Nowadays sadly yes, at least in most cases.
Personally, the best middle-ground for me is to use a clear silicone case. It doesnt hide the beauty of your phone, but adds a little bit of protection.
Still looks ugly after a while when it yellows or shows bits of stuff getting into it
kuba 22542 there are anti yellowing/coloring cases..
I used to take this approach, but since I live in a desert city, sand and dust gets into a silicone case fairly easily due to the softness of the silicone and so I’ve had some nasty scratches on my phones.

I like to use a skin, with a case and a screenprotector! The reason for that is because I buy a phone myself and when I want to move on, I like to resell my old phone and I like it to look almost as new as when I got it. I currently have the Samsung Galaxy S10+ with a D-Brand carbon skin on the back (not on the camera module, because I don't like the look of that and the camera module has a really small chance to scratch in my opinion). The case I use with it is a Mous clear case, it has a clear hard plastic back, so you can see the skin and it won't get yellow. The surounding of the skin is black plastic which is a little bit more flexibel than the back and the inside of the case has shock absorbers. Then for the screenprotector, I use a screenprotector that gets customly cut out by a shop to fit the case. It is a soft plastic screenprotector, so it can wrap around the edges on the galaxy phone. Furthermore this screenprotector has a self healing kinda thing going on, so al the minor scratches disappear after a little time and use. This all doesn't cost that much, I like the look of it and they keep the phone looking almost brand new! I got all this protection for around €75,- and it protects like everything! So to round everything up, I use a d-brand skin (without camera skin), a clear back Mous case and a plastic screenprotector (from Mediamarkt).

No Protection Squad??
no.. just me.. okay..
Ethan Hofsta nah I'm here too
same, Naked Squad here...
2 years without dropping my phone. Big hand? Maybe.
Reporting in. Never liked using condoms either... go figure... 😂
And I thought I was the only weirdo.... I just love the feel and looks of the phjone, which cases destroy :P
I buy phones for long term so not concerned about resale. I expect the phone to have good grip and a scratch resistant screen. That's all the protection I need because I am very careful with my devices. But this obsession with glass is crazy. It is both fragile and slippery. And gorilla glass 5 seems to scratch easily.
I had my phone for almost 2 years and always used a case and I never ever dropped it. So I thought screw it, I'm ditching the case. And I dropped it 2 weeks later I dropped it of course, shattering the front screen.
No protection, _I like to live dangerously._
It's because RUclipsrs are rich and they can afford a new phone unlike us regular users. We don't have the money to fix/replace them.
I walk around with a Tudia Hybrid case on my Nexus 6p.
well, I've never used a case and never broke any of my phones. So I guess you don't have to be rich, just cautious.
Dock Dupont but poor of me,my xiaomi redmi note 3 got scratch in the corner by the hard case.
I don't think so. I bought a Nexus 6 on Black Friday 2015 for 200$ and have had it for more than a year. It has some scuffs and a couple of dents because I have dropped it 3-4 times. My point is that you buy a phone for the way it looks and feels in the hand too, why cover it and immediately delete one of the reasons that pushed you to buy it?
stiviajazi i agree
In my opinion 99% of the phones nowadays are too thin to comfortably hold them without a case anyway.
You will be pleasntly surprised with the S9 from Samsung, as the leaks say it's going to be thicker than the S8, it's going to be 8.4mm thick.
Though i just saw this video right now, and noticed it was published 3 years back, i always genuinely love your work. Keep it up, man! 👍
If I was rich of course I wont use a case to protect my phone otherwise you really have to use it or 1 drop and your phone is probably gone :P
Adam David Thank. you for mentioning this! The lower income and money conscious people use both because they just can't take the risk of accidentally destroying a very critical piece of their day to day life!
I sent a phone through a wash cycle and I can't describe how upset I was loosing almost everything on that phone. I am also the type of person to drop phones. My small hands just don't work with the newer larger phones! I HAVE to use a hybrid case and a screen protector (my phone often shares spaces with my keys).
I just don't have the money to risk repairing/replacing a phone without good notice to set aside money. I have always expected to use my phones for 1- 3 years. So I really need to be aware of what I'm using to protect it.
Hell, part of buying a new phone for me IS shopping to see if there are decent cases for the phone I'm interested in!
Adam David I don't fucking care IT RUINS THE BOOTY OF THE PHONE.
DAT BOOTY
2 or 3 years of walking around naked with my note 4. no regrets lol.
Kevin is it 2 or 3 years. That’s a big difference in time. Seems like a regret to me
yeah no regrets till to decide to resell it.
Haeral Literally said 2 or 3 years... 17-3= 14 bud.
Kevin Donnelly tis l
Kevin Donnelly ..Please put some clothes on!!
JarryRigEverything, I have a question - how effective do you think Phone Bumper Cases are?
The Guy They are ok, but a full case will obviously protect your phone more. If the phone lands funny or hits a rock or other object when it falls, then a bumper won't protect as much with situations like that.
Jonathon Morrison has a video where he drops an iPhone out of a helicopter with a rhinoguard bumper case on it if you're interested
I use cases but I don’t like the screen protector, it just feels really nice without it. It’s probably because I used plastic protectors in the past so I always have this in my mind. Glass may feel just as nice.
Honestly, what bugs me about some of these opinions is they don't take *money* into account. For the average person who leases their phone, or can't afford to pay to fix a shattered screen, protection should not be about aesthetics. It's about being financially responsible. I know they aren't the average consumers, but it still bugs me.
Or, you know. You can try not to drop your phone, ever. Zero cost
@@yunan9610 or use it even if you drop it
@@yunan9610 EXACTLY
But one of them was literally called UrAvgConsumer
Here's why I use a nice, inexpensive, flexible, clear, great grip skin instead of a hard, expensive, bulky & little to no grip shell.
1. The skin unlike the hard shell, doesn't conceal the beautiful design of the phone, making it 3x better looking & feeling of the nice slick feel of your smartphone like how it was meant to look & feel.
2. The skin adds so much more grip to the phone, so instead of worrying about if the $100 shell with little to no grip will protect your phone on a 15-20% likelihood drop, you'll instead be worrying about the phone turning off at 1% while you dash for the charger.
3. Unlike the expensive bulky shell, the inexpensive skin doesn't trap the heat as nearly as much as the big, bulky shell does. So if the weather is a little hot, and you're intensely using your phone or even charging it, expect all that heat to be stuck within the phone because of that thick shell covering all around the back & battery.
4. And finally, like I mentioned above, it's just so much more cheaper & actually more beneficial in the grand scheme of themes. Why spend a small fortune on a hard shell on the off chance you do end up dropping it, which has as much protection as a football helmet does to a player's brain upon impact, when you can spend a couple of bucks on a nice premium skin that looks great and has such a great grip that increases your hold onto the phone drastically? I rest my case.
(Pun intended)
dean yilmaz I mean the cheap cases are cheap and for me provides none to very little protection so that's why I use cases that are taller than the phone so when it falls it hits the case than the cheap cases which is only tall as the screen
Case and Screen Protector as always. But wait, why am I watching this in 2019? 🤔😂
I don't like that shit. I don't have fancy glass phones.
Because you are buying a new phone and want some opinions?
@@wildreams I already bought a new phone. But keep watching his videos for these deeper grooves at level 7. Also wanted to see who is like me. I use a case on my phones but no screen protector. My Nokia 8 still doesn't have noticeable scratches after 2 years (my older Nokia has one scratch I believe) and my Samsung Note10+ is currently with the plastic screen protector it came with. I almost removed it but decided it can stay. I doubt I can put screen protector better than them even if it's a better quality one. My secret is try not to drop the phone :D and I put only my phone in that pocket. No coins, keys or anything else at all in the same pocket.
@@123ftw1 I'm a bit like the first guy in the video, I always carry my phone naked. I will say that I'm also pretty protective when it comes to my phones, so I've never had a phone break or even had a scratch on the screen, and have never had a problem reselling them. Like you I also never have anything besides my phone in the same pocket, which helps a lot. I will say though, that after buying an iPhone 11 and seeing their repair prices, I have been considering a case to protect the back glass :D
Using Both cuz my Mom reuses my old Phones after I've worn them out and if she has to take my Phones I'll go for some good Protection
I always use a case and a tempered glass screen protector. I have multiple cases for my Note 9, The UAG Monarch and Spigen rugged armor are my two favorites but I always make sure I get cases with good drop protection otherwise there would be no point in getting one. I'm also rocking a Olesit Tempered Glass (which is a whitestone dome knock off).
There you go bro, yeah i feel like tempered glass screen protector is a must even with a case cause if you drop it face down on pavement with gravel on top, aint no lip from a case is saving your shit
I wanted to see techrax.😂😂
ayush garg lol techrax is such a jackass and a fucking disgrace to the tech community 😅
that jackass probably just drags his phone everywhere face down with a string
@@jazzyspork8745 like walking a dog
Never have and never will use a case or a screen protector on my phone. it was designed to look this way and that's exactly how I liked it and that's why I bought it. I think it's ridiculous when people buy the slimmest phone they can find and then put it in an Otterbox and make it the thickest phone you've ever seen.
Yup like why would I buy an expensive top of the line device to bulk it up like that. I don't deserve to have it if I can't take care of it like it is.
Case and screen protector is always the best way to go. Some don't care to protect the good looks and condition of the phone. Others like myself prefer to protect it so it continues to look as nice as was intended. The best approach is obvious. Protect it when out and about, enjoy naked when home.
@@mollerbt best for one is not best for all. Lots of people drop their phones, I never do. Idk how but I literally don't.
@@mollerbt I disagree with everything you say. do you put a cover on your car when you're out and about driving to protect it and then take it off when you get home. What about your shoes? What about your watch? What about anything you pay lots of money for that you think it's nice. A phone is literally the only thing people put cases and protectors on for some odd reason. Somehow these case manufacturers convinced all of you that you need these in order to operate your phone. Why buy something that you really like if all you're going to do is cover it up that's like having a hot girlfriend and putting her in a parka. Just stupid
@@riomendoza1111 Personally, I think its stupid that people are willing to drop $1k+ on a device they handle everyday and travel with it all over the place, and not bother to use a case/screen protector for the sake of aesthetics. Especially when the cost to get a decent case and a tempered glass/sapphire screen protector is literally 4-7% against the cost of a new xs. A bulked up phone will always more aesthetically pleasing to me than a shattered screen. You can take a phone out of the case, but it's gonna require a little more work to get rid of that fucked up screen...
@xavier brenneman "lots of people drop their phones, I never do". Yeah, that's gonna work until it doesn't lmfao.
If it was held in 2019, it would be a resounding 'Yes' from the general consumers.
