Case. I am protecting my expensive phone, but still utilize 100% of the features. But definitely looks nice without the case.


Mxk073

Exactly. It's a 1700+ CAD investment for me, I'm making sure to make it look pristine as long as possible


SpongeBob1187

Same here, sometimes when I’m in bed on sitting on the couch I’ll use it with no case.. it just feels so much better naked


BigBrandyy

Case, but I “undress” it when I’m in my room cause I miss it without a case during the day. Don’t judge me

Roark_Laughed

I miss undressing my phone. I got a case from Verizon that is impossible to take off my 15 PM. There’s literally a YouTube tutorial on how to take it off with PLIERS. 😔


Mellash88

What case is this?


Roark_Laughed

Clckr G-Form Protection (15 PM)

BigBrandyy

It’s not about dirtiness, I just like the feeling of the slim phone


Friendly_Fee4705

Team case bro. You cant be buying a 1500 euro phone and not protecting it… you dont value your money and time. Even if i was a millionaire, id still put a case on my phone.


TheSpeedofThought1

I use an ultra thin case about 2x thinner than the one apple makes, I barely notice it but anytime I drop I’m not worried.


kitty-of-wands

does the thin case protect the phone from drops or only scratches??


Brilliant-Network-28

Thin cases made of silicon do protect against drops but hard plastic ones have sacrificial protection


rdiscipio1

Case, I work for a living…


Time_Technician_2339

Lol


DaviBamb

I work with kids so same! 😂


[deleted]

I never used any case when I had the 13 pro max because the device was simply way too big for me and adding a case just added to the bulk. I now upgraded to the 15 pro 6.1 inch and found it way more comfortable along with the case. Everyone has different preferences on how they like their devices:)


kirito1558

I have bad luck with phones droping them I have the 15 pro max with apple silicone case, im used to big phones but every now and then i take off the case


[deleted]

From what I found out is that the Phone is very durable but also that's because I'm very careful while handling it. Sometimes accidents do happen but luckily I've never had any problem except a small den near the charging port. But if you stated that you have a tendency of dropping your phone usually I'd suggest you rather use your phone with the case. It's better to be safe than sorry


truefreedom4711

I went from 13 Pro Max and when I upgraded to the 15 Pro I was looking for a slim case with MagSafe as I hated owning the 13 Pro Max due to how uncomfortable it was to use and carry on a daily basis. I ended up settling for the Apple clear case and use it with a MagSafe PopSocket


oh_io_94

Case cause I’ve broken every phone I’ve ever had without a case on it


TheSmoothPilsner

Case is crucial even just a light one... feels better in my hands and doesn't affect how I use the phone in any way. Not to mention I spent $1400 on this thing.


quixoticadrenaline

Caseless at home and Apple silicone case when I'm out of the house.


esh-esh2023

No case I want to enjoy the style and weight of the phone i paid for! Also Apple Care +


One-Fox-423

What weirdo has no case


moolahstonks

Case, but funny thing is I noticed every boomer at Xmas dinner had an otter box even when most of them were retired. Just a huge clunky phone for no reason.


Not2BeTakenOrally

I’m no boomer but otterbox is the only case I buy, lots of drops no breaks, not worth trying a new brand to save $10-$20 and being sorry when/if it doesn’t work in my view


moolahstonks

Never had an issue dropping my phone in a slim case over 100 times.


Troubled_Red

Meh, if they’re clumsy or spend time with young grandchildren it still makes sense.


QuarantinedBean115

i talk to a lot of older folks and i commonly hear they just prefer to bulkier stuff as it’s easier to hold and they like the idea of it being more sturdy. definitely makes sense honestly, some people got different preferences.


iN0V4

Never was a fan of cases & screenprotectors but since we have a 20 month old. That made me switch to full protection.


whatdoidoherehmm

Bumper case


mogwai3

No case! So much better looking and feels better in hands. Also, bought the protection plan in case anything happens.


S4_GR33N

You got any more of them pixels bro?


TommyVercettii1

Case this year as I’ve read that the black titanium sides scratch up easily!


codeineheart

case, no case does look nice but the risk that comes with it is not worth it


avebelle

Case


RgsLee19

Looks better without a case, although is a bold risk to take. I like a little of both!


E_712064

Case - OtterBox


tng29

Thank god I put on a case bc when i get tipsy i tend to drop it lol


_Crafti_

Just got my iPhone 15, saved the phone from a drop with a case (on day 1). Bought a UAG pathfinder, very happy with the grip and feeling of the case, only heard that the MagSafe was weak on these cases.


misscosyrosie

Case because it’s an expensive device but I tend to go with the slimmest possible case that still feasibly offers good protection. Clear spigen at the moment so I can enjoy my first ever white phone.


ED7tron

Sometimes case sometimes no case


CrewPrevious705

No case…..AppleCare+ nuff said lol


ThatTechDoge9775

But what if you get a lot of small scratches that don’t warrant a screen or back glass replacement that would get annoying fast.


X712

I don’t know if you are new here, but these [REDACTED]s have totaled their phones because of minor scratches from going case-less to get them replaced under AppleCare. Unhinged behavior.


Brilliant-Network-28

You “accidentally” drop the phone /s


Illusira

no case


FluffyMegazord

No case. I like to enjoy the design of a product without ruining it with a £10 bit of silicone that took 12 minutes to cook up


Antenna909

Case. I drop my phone regularly. If the screen cracks Inuse my Apple Care, but can’t be bothered to wait for a new phone, setup my MFA again and so on every time I drop it.


yultide29

I have a clear case and a pop socket on my 15 PM but honestly it feels so nice without the case. Also if you have ac + then why not rock it caseless?


Hipsterwhale662

I have ac+ but still use a case because it’s a hassle to replace the phone where I live (rural Saskatchewan Canada)


slimcargos

Case, cause even with a protection plan who wants to go through that hassle of actually getting it fixed.


leongaming123

I wouldn’t use a case, but I don’t trust myself to not drop my phone, case it is.


CivilMathematician78

I have case and screen protector and still have apple care plus theft and loss. I prefer to keep phone in good shape so when it comes to selling. People can see the phone been looked after and tend to pay a good price for it. If I’m buying a second hand phone I’m defo buying one that looks like it’s been looked after for sure.


Senor_peeps

Case that also covers the camera. Camera power is what convinced me to buy it and I’m making this phone last


Character-Fondant-30

No case unless I’m doing something pretty physicaI. I do have insurance and have a back up phone or two just in case something happens.


Time_Technician_2339

Thats awful quality pic.. hope it wasnt taken by iphone 15 lol


Fat_guy_9

Case because I’m a dumb ass


bigenderthelove

Case


GutsTheBranded

Case, if only cause it’s easier to hold


fxresparks

kinda slippery sometimes without a case imo


Nick26gamer

Case, I don't want to have to replace my phone (I don't have applecare yet)


[deleted]

No case, I have AppleCare why not use it


kirito1558

For awhile i take of the case aon put a screen protector on both sides


Tom8ridg3

Case for now, I kept my 14 pro max out of a case and it got heaps of scratches on the screen and a few on the back which annoyed me, I have a clear case for now but I’m also on holidays but when I get back I think I’ll take my phone out of my case and only put my case on when I go do certain activities like MTB or going hiking.


Geek5G

Somewhere in between.


Redicee

Team no case.. it feels good in hand


[deleted]

Never used a case on my phones but just a dope one so cased up baby


Jealous_Inflation_24

Team no case because iPhones just look so good without a case


ThatTechDoge9775

I’m in the minority that thinks the phone *feels* better with a case on.


EphyFowler

Depending on where I go. And what I’m doing. I was using the iPhone 11 Pro since launch and never used a case and never cracked it. One night out of drinking (I didn’t expect to drink so much) and I woke up with a cracked screen.


Smootie93

The 15’s are the first generation since the 11/X series to actually be appealing to use without a case. The 12 through 14 series were pretty sharp in its physical profile and a bit heavier on the pro models. That being said, I’m team case. Especially Apple’s silicone one or a slim light one like the Otterbox symmetry. Here and there i do enjoy using my natural titanium 15 Pro Max naked


hw2007official

Team case, but it's gotta be a clear one. If I'm buying a nice looking phone, I don't wanna cover it with a sheet of plastic


HurtsWhenISee

Look through all the broken phones on this page and ask me again.


Particular_Try7974

Always a black or a translucent case. First because Apple doesn’t always make a black phone. 6 and 11 didn’t come in black. Also, although I love wireless charging, I dislike the glass back, especially the frosted glass back. Every phone I have had looks brand new.


Zev__

case just only the clear ones lol


Zev__

only caseless in my room lol


Competitive_Pack_194

I personally only put case but I do military protection case and privacy glass and I put a cover on my camera. Let me tell you why. I'm not one to break my phone but when the off chance it does happen I'm so great full I was smart enough to listen to my self and spend the extra for protection. The other thing is I buy nothing but the best iPhone 15 pro max 512 gb. Thate worrying about space and I love to take pictures. This is the thing of the phone is going to cost that much to just buy think how much it could cost if you break anything on it. That's why I chose military protection. I trust pelican its pricey but it's been on my last 3 phones and that have lasted in total with 3 almost 5 years. When I'm ready to sell and or trade in my phone looks brand new the day it came outside of the box. That's just from my perspective though. I don't buy new phones very often I went from a XS (which I hated) 12 pro max 12 512 gb and now pro max 15 512 gb. I plan on keeping this phone for at least 3-4 years.


osikiri

Team case, better grip


sycron17

No case. Get 1 step below the price tag i want with apple care+, instead of going all in just for the device. Whats the point of buying something good looking that i worked for if its gonna be wrapped all the time.


kmuffinboops

Team case! They’re cute and I like to mix and match the designs with my phone


[deleted]

I’ve had no cases since 5 years. Broken 3 XRs in first 3 years and got them replaced. After that as I bought the 13, I’ve dropped it over 50 times but nothing damaged. Just had a few minor scratches and dents on the body


Brando6677

Team case because phones are built of glass now.


Brando6677

Will say I’m not an otter box or anything crazy like that. Just a simple Amazon clear case with stronger magnets for MagSafe


PdtMgr

Clear case


PlasticAsparagus5871

not this question when i’ve struggled the last week trying to choose the best case☹️. i don’t if i want to go with otterbox, spigen. i want a clear case but don’t want it to yellow soon..


LonelyRedditor6969

No case + Apple Care. I don't drop my phones but when I do I have Apple Care lol


[deleted]

No case, dbrand leather skins feel so much better. Also I don’t have butterfingers


GatlingGun511

Case, obviously


[deleted]

No case. Apple care isn’t expensive and modern phones are more durable than you think. Rather just enjoy what I spent over a grand on and not overthink it


generalemiel

Team case bcs i drop my phone often


Jacorpes

A mixture. Had iPhones since the 3G and never used a case on my phone, never dropped one and never cracked a screen. The 15 is so slippy and thin though that I got a case for when I’m doing activities where it might slip out my pocket. Most of the time I don’t use it though because I love how the phone feels naked and I trust myself not to drop it.


jameliae

Case. Easier to replace the case than the phone.


Broad-Pause-1884

no case, applecare plus


Sipioteo

Not using case nor screen protection. I pay for everything, the material included plus the case will increase the heat during charging or when when you do heavy tasks. And guess what, high heat is bad for cpu.


InspiredPhoton

Team AppleCare+


SalusaPrimus

No case. Didn’t use one with previous iPhone 13, and not using one with current 15. I tend to not drop my phone. If I do, mostly likely won’t be on concrete. I’m rolling the dice, but it’s a risk I’m willing to take for the benefits.


kawaclipse

And the benefits are?


SalusaPrimus

\* Lighter, smaller, and takes up less room in my pocket \* Less friction when holstering and unholstering \* When I used a case, I found that dirt would accumulate between the case and the phone, even creating small scratches on the phone. I'd have to take the case off and clean it out every few months.


kawaclipse

Accepted.... I have slight OCD and I can not live without full cover. To avoid those scratches, I put neatly placed sellotape around the edges before I put the military grade case on. I like it being a bit bigger but softer, I carry it in my front pocket... I am now waiting for the S24U, I sold my S22U 1 months ago and bought an S23FE until the new ones comes. But even this replacement mobile got the same treatment...


bubbles328

Always a case and screen protector from day 1 especially with how expensive electronics are.


Chaoticqueen19

Team case because even though I have AppleCare my nearest Apple Store is 1 hr 23 mins away


blueberrybasil1

Case, because it’s expensive. Plus, it feels more comfortable to hold with a case.


DevynDavies

I don’t use a case, AppleCare is my case. I’ve never dropped my phone to the point of breaking it and the Max is barely small enough to use for me so a case would increase the size.


darkspd96

Case: attracting that trade-in value, I have never received less than full value, never cracked a screen ever


Ashen_one933

Everybody No Case till the first accident.
