[@bionicbunny3680]

I understand and see your perspective on wanting to preserve the original design of the phone. For me I always view my phone as a resource and not an accessory to look at so I always like to put a case on it. For it it allows the device to be more personalized since iPhones are very common and a good case adds more durability to the phone which is important to me because not only is the phone fragile since it Made of glass but also expensive to repair the glass also. Anyway that my perspective always enjoy seeing and sharing what our different perspective is on this topic about cases.

[@chasescooper]

A few thoughts after researching going this route. Breaking phones is a business - it’s beneficial to charge you for Apple care, screen repairs etc. and folks who buy these can easily afford repairs and insurance, it’s easy money for Apple they don’t have to design these things to be durable if they got you on the design train - ingenious actually. You don’t take your leather sofa or nice guitar camping, running, or to work where you use it as a functional tool nowadays.

[@liamplqys]

it’s simple to take off and put on though, if i’m going to dinner, class, or whenever i don’t need a case. If im going to exercise or work i’ll obviously throw it in a case

[@BG4life13]

that doesn't really make sence because Apple sells cases for the iPhone which are extremely expensive.. if you have apple care screen repaires are cheaper then their cases Apple care is only 10$ a month for 2 years.. they make way more money selling their fancy leather cases. which people usually buy apple care with cases which is a scam in my opinion. just get apple care.

That doesn’t change the fact that the iPhone undoubtably looks better without a case

[@georeschen]

interesting toughts - i go with the idea of @gurenplqys to put on a case for risky situations

[@BG4life13]

thing is, cases do a great job protecting your phone but even in a case it can still break.. but you're less likely to break your phone while dropping with a case then without one. The couch example doesn't really make sence cuz your phone is used as a communication device that you take everwhere and is at high risk of damage, a better example would be a car.. .

[@murphyandmurphybrand]

I’m a designer, appreciate the design but functionality should be part of the design process for a functional object. I started using a case when they started making them out of glass. It’s not comfortable to hold and it slips out the hand. I wouldn’t care about the superficial damage you mention but when your screen breaks and it costs a hundreds to repair, it’s a bit silly. My favourite iPhones were the first gen, second gen, and iPhone 5c. I’d love to see a more rugged iPhone. I’m not one polished steel and glass.

[@georeschen]

I'm with you when it comes to "design follows function"...

[@jsizemo]

For Apple users, the trade in value is what offsets the high cost when they buy their next Apple device. Hence, going caseless is a nonstarter. It might make sense for older phones, particularly Android, because they tend not to be supported as long as Apple phones

I fully get you. Just to be clear: of course anyone's gotta take care of the phone, whatever model it is. I never said anything else 😉 and if you do so, you might get along without a case 😅

I just started this no case thing today. I’ve always appreciated the beauty of the iPhones only to slap a case on them right away. I dropped my new SE in the toilet earlier (yes it works fine - I just vacuumed the openings for a few minutes) and decided to go the day without the case while I soak it in some bleach water…even the silicone cases get scuzzy looking after a while and I hate it. But I’ve been having so much fun using my phone naked, so I looked up if there were any other crazy people out there. I love looking at my phone for the first time since I unboxed it, and it feels great in my hand and the screen feels more responsive without the protector. And I’ve seen through many videos how durable the new iPhones are. I can definitely vouch for the water resistance! The last great(in my eyes) phone I had was a Motorola G7 Power back in 2010. That fell in the toilet and did not make it out alive so naturally I had a mini stroke as I cleaned and dried my SE. Anyway, great content as always. You’ve inspired me to keep the natural look for now 🤩👊

But the fact remains that I have done my own iPhone crash testing in the real world (I do app delivery work) and have no casualties to report.

[@steveschwartz5417]

Excellent video and you make some really good points. Only lately have I started to feel the same way, but I only went as far as using the Arc Pulse case (it’s actually not a case, but more of a bumper that protects the essential parts of the phone, like the corners in the camera. It allows you to enjoy the phone the way the designer intended almost exclusively while also enjoying the finish of the phone. Of course, if I’m sitting around the house, there’s no reason for a case, especially if you have AppleCare or some other protection plan.

[@samodigboh]

Do what you like but most people who use cases don’t want to have the one fabled drop to happen that takes their nice phone and destroys it and makes them either have to get it fixed or replaced

Maybe strange to hear for Iphone users ( I have an iPhone just for work) but this is why I love phones with a "plastic" back. Maybe it feels a bit less premium than a glass one but I don't have to worry about breaking the thing and imo it looks and feels much better than a phone with a case.

[@georeschen]

of course it always depends on personal taste and preferences.

[@Ttjam1]

Yeah I miss my Nexus 5 which was the last phone I had with a matte back. So easy to go caseless with that. Afterwards I got a Pixel and needed a case as it was like a slippery eel. Then I had an iPhone SE which I rocked without a case - I think the small size and flat edges helped with grip. My iPhone 8 was back to smooth rounded crap so needed a case. Now I’m undecided with the 13 which I just got delivered today. It’s got flat edges but it’s bigger than the SE 1 so I’m less confident, plus I paid more for it.

my girlfriend thinks i’m crazy for not using a case, and i always tell her how these phones are expensive due to the materials, designs, logos, etc. why cover them in plastic? i also think things with dings and scuffs are more aesthetically pleasing, as imperfections give things character. also, phone cases don’t totally protect our devices. i had a note 5 in a case. it fell less than two feet face down on the lip of the case. the screen didn’t break, but the oled panel was destroyed 🤷🏾‍♂️

I do go out every week with my family where i take photos and videos thats when u can say i could drop it but i never did cause i only use it for some time to take photos and videos, so putting a case on a beautiful phone for just few hours of protection doesn’t make sense.

Very well explained. I never put a screen protector on my phone and instead I clean my phone screen carefully everyday. There wasn’t any noticeable scratch after years of use on my previous iPhone. I’ve been using a case because it feels more stable and comfortable in hand with a leather case.

I used a Spigen Tough Armor on my LG G8 which added something like 50g of weight and it was overkill. It added so much bulk! But the phone itself was literally unusable without a case since it was super slippery. If the surface wasn't 100% flat, it would find a way to slip off.

Genau. Design & Haptik ist ein wichtiger Teil des Ganzes - hab es ja bewußt gewählt, aus gutem Grund mehr (als nur für ein funktionales Gerät wie es andere Hersteller bauen) gezahlt, und will es natürlich auch geniessen - wie z.B. das 16Pro ab morgen. Und nicht, Stichwort: Überzüge für wunderschöne Holz/Lederlenkräder, Schonbezüge für Ledersitze... 😅 Only exception: when i know i will be in an environment/prolonged situation, where falls or damage are 99,9% likely (hiking, long travels, shooting range/competition) and the priority swaps 100% on function & reliability - then it's "case time", to save me from worst case, which is grief, loss of function & repair time (which is - for me - of higher value than money).

Well one day I was listening to music, and bumped into someone on my way to class, a building over. I had to swallow my heart back down after barely breaking its fall onto hard asphalt. The thing was a small iPhone 4 like yours, and while the all black glass casing was dope, was real slippery.

As someone who is contemplating... On whether or not to get a case myself, I find that you just need to become hyper aware of your phone's surroundings. For example, never putting your case less phone in your pocket with keys or coins. In addition, you need to be aware what surface you're putting your phone on... Because it might be dirty or worse yet... Slippery and on a slope. If you folks have the mental capacity to do that... That's fine. But as a dad, I can't have that undivided and focused attention on my phone (aka tool) for too long. Putting a case on your phone isn't to to make it ugly, but rather to make it life proof.

I instead took the money, to get a 90€ leather case for my s23U. Like without a Case my phone would be dead by now. And i think for the most ppl. that isn't much different.

[@georeschen]

Of course it's up to each person and probably you're right it doesn't make much difference for the most, which is part of my vids aims, drawing attention to the value of design.

[@abdillahem]

I agree with you. But Iam not that rich to get a new phone directly after i broke it, for now. So I prefer to use good quality clear case.

[@georeschen]

got you. I was lucky so far and never broke one ta all so far. just got some scratches that I can live with...

[@apple-guy9394]

Best iPhone case you can have is Apple care.. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Crslawncare13]

Apple care +

[@georeschen]

yep!

I love using my phones caseless so much.

[@ObviouslyMegamind]

I get it, but I like the apple leather and fine woven cases because they still have a nice sleek beautiful design just like the iphone😊

[@georeschen]

sure, there are well designed sleeves too....

[@VIKASSAINI007]

To everyone complaining about slippery iphone, I request to try a skin, a leather skin on back, it gives a really good grip and ofcourse you have liberty to customise it (depends on your skin source)

[@georeschen]

I don't find the phone that slippery 🤷🏻‍♂️😅

[@corywagner9733]

The looks better without a case but it’s slippery making it hard to hold especially while laying done watching videos on it so it’s tough to decide on case or no case

[@georeschen]

yep

[@agame-jv6zv]

Edge phones need a case im pretty sure

[@georeschen]

well, every phone who's holder drops it too hard needs a case 😂

[@agame-jv6zv]

@georeschen it's kinda hard with slippery glass basically wrapping around the phone with the edge phones

[@lithin4630]

Putting an iphone in a rubber and screen protector is like wrapping your ferrari in plastic to protect it from scratches

[@darkscoop-1]

Stop your BS

[@tiffanykahn2535]

True! 😅

[@internetfrnd6496]

I go caseless at home, rather my phone fall on carpet than concrete. Other than that for me it’s just the general inconvenience and waste of time that breaking my phone can cause. I’d rather spend $40 on a decent case and screen protector that’ll take seconds to install than spend hours getting the phone fixed or worse shipped to me.

[@georeschen]

going caseless at home is a first step 😉

[@Editor_Hound]

Really good points you made and I seriously start considering going caseless. I've had my Galaxy S8 for 7 years now, when I bought it, I didn't unbox it until the Spigen case arrived. 😅 Barely left the case since then. Apart from some wear around the charging port and the camera edges, the screen and back are in immaculate condition. Pulled it out of the case a couple of days ago, and I wondered, how actually I never appreciated the design and sleek feel and look. The glass back which reflects so nice. How beautifully crafted the curved screen is.( and we're talking about an old ass phone). All in all, I'm considering going caseless for now and the next phone I upgrade. I think I've dropped my S8 not more than 10 times since I've owned it, so it's fair to say I'm pretty careful with my device. Anyway, great insight. Just like you said, what's the point of buying a nice leather sofa, and then wrapping it in plastic foil? Plastic foil which, invariably, you'll change quite often.

[@georeschen]

thx, appreciate it 😊

[@richxps]

Great video and well said …. I usually use a case until about 2 months before the new phone is set to launch lol . I may consider no case going forward, life is short might as well enjoy the things we have how are made.

[@georeschen]

yes, enjoy! 😊

Another good reason to go caseless; less likely to get it out. I do less random walking/scrolling etc. Get it out when I need it. More purposeful use of the phone. 📱

you`re right ... and lucky 😅🥳😂

[@amarpalji]

Completely agree with you buddy

[@izrankamal3080]

I use case occasionally but sometimes the case causes damages to my phone as it can scratch the edge of my phone. So frustrating

[@ezradanger]

I mean, it's kind of straightforward. If the luxury of enjoying your phone's design is worth the cost of insurance or the risk of breaking it and having to replace it, then go caseless. But for most people, that little luxury isn't worth the cost or risk.

[@georeschen]

just one point i don't agree with: seems like most people feel like it's inevitable ruining a phone within weeks without protection 😅😉

Never used a case with my Blackberry and it was pretty much new after a couple of years. I feel iPhones are made fragile and they are even designed to be slippery...

[@GT83963]

Caseless 15 Pro Max user here. AppleCare + is my case. AppleCare Comes with the Apple Upgrade program. $29 for glass repair or $99 for overnight express replacement. That’s about the cost of what most people spend on a single case and some buy multiple cases. Cases get nasty and turn yellow etc. Not only that, but one thing that most people don’t realize is the majority of iPhones that come into the Apple Store for glass repair were broken while in a case. If it’s gonna break it’s gonna break. Get AppleCare + and enjoy your phone as it was designed. I didn’t buy a $1,400 phone to wrap it in plastic or rubber 😂

[@georeschen]

soule mate 🥳

[@AnonymoX-vm3xd]

That’s exactly what I’m doing and for those exact reasons 🤟🏻

[@kevinphoenix2007]

I just got a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 and, despite trying some different cases, they all put some strain on my fingers when handling the phone. And I've ALWAYS had a case on every smartphone I've ever owned. This is the first time I'm actually thinking of going caseless with this one, because it actually handles pretty well without one. So long as I'm always careful when I have it out, it's a risk I'm willing to take. That and the warranty I purchased for it, just in case...no pun intended. lol

[@georeschen]

you're definitely on the right way 😅💪🥳 enjoy your caseless phone!

[@ScottNipper-xs5zw]

Plus a resale value is better if phone is in great condition

[@georeschen]

true! one more reason I take care of that thing ☝️

[@Emmanuel-yd7bm]

It's still safe when we have phone cases. I accidentally dropped my phone from upper double deck bed and it has a case so it got no damage. I had a phone I dropped without a case and it has damages already especially the volume and power button.

[@georeschen]

be more carful with your phone!

[@minusmartin]

If i go out for a large period of the day or work on my car/do outside activities, then ill slap a case on. If im at home all the time or do small grocery trips where i know i wont use my phone much (i have a galaxy watch 5 pro) then ill just leave it in my pocket. I USE my stuff, but i am not purposely careless. My son doesnt use my phone at all either, so i dont have any reason to be all stressed about it getting damaged. I think the good middle ground is to have a case or two ready in CASE you want to mix it up a bit, but i do appreciate the design of things better. A screen protector is more of a must due to the micro scratches caused by bits of sand, dust, stuff like that that end up in your pockets. I live in a hot desert region so you WILL get those abrasions on your screen. good video, solid quality. keep it up! I am sub number 650!

[@malikkelly]

Definitely don't have the expendable income to not have a protective case. If it breaks I won't be able to have another easily Edit: I don't agree with the examples used. An expensive phone in incomparable to so sofa and very much more fragile. All it takes is a single drop to have a cracked screen and unusable device. Like I mentioned before, if it breaks it's not gonna be the same experience for everyone. While you may able to go easily spend money on a repair or even a new phone, many people can't. A sofa can take a beating, a phone can't.

If I spend 60 dollars a month on a haircut I am going to still wear a helmet when I ride a motorcycle or bike. Also, a lot of phones are "sleek" which seems to be code for more slippery than a Slip N Slide with baby oil and a case helps with grip.
