Case, or no case?

aaron130 · Mar 30, 2014

Hey everyone. Just wanted some opinions on whether your going to put a case on this device or not? I am usually a case guy, but I think I'm going to find it hard to cover up such a gorgeous phone!! Also, do u use screen protectors on this device? Haven't used a protector for the last few phones I've had, GS4, LGG2.

I don't like to use any cause I love to feel the nice aluminium body and awesome clarity of screen

It's so dang slippery, I don't know how anyone could not have a case.

Guess our hands just aren't as greasy because mine is not slippery at all on the gunmetal finish =)

I'm getting a clear TPU case with no frost.

I am having the same problem, too slippery for me to feel comfortable without a case. I also have big hands, so it is a little small for me to hold comfortably without a case. I also find I really miss the kickstand that my previous two phones had, so I am thinking about getting one of the cases that include a kickstand.

I always advocate playing safe cell phone, so I wrap it up. However, with my M7, I will take it out of the case while at work because our floors are carpeted.

One thing though: I'm waiting for the silver M8 to come out on Sprint before upgrading because self-proclaimed "careful" people in the unlocked One forum are reporting scratches on the gold and gray versions. The stock silver One has no coating to scratch.

Is this really going to happen? That's the one I want. If I knew for sure they were going to offer that, I'd wait to upgrade.

I'm not saying is GOING to happen, but the coating has the potential to scratch.

I don't care about the scratch potential. I'll have a case on it anyway. I would just rather have the silver variant than the gold or gray.

Oh, I'm sure you'll be fine then. I guess I'm just scared about going bareback -- even if it's just occasionally -- with anything other than silver. Apparently, just resting the non-silver models on a desk is leaving marks.

I picked up the dot view case. Loving it so far. Gives decent protection too.

For the first time since my HTC Hero (which I ended up getting Ghost Armor on), I'm going without a case.
Didn't HTC say they would replace a broken screen for free within the first 6 months too?

I never had a case on my M7, but I went through 4 of them for different malfuctions, and each one wound up having a dented corner or scratched up grill. So considering this one is even heavier, I know the damage will be worse.

That's a nice looking case. Thanks for the link. Being Michigan fan, that blue slate case makes me want the gold phone now. :/
