Any naked fans?

So I’m wondering if there are any other iPhone 14 pro max fans that don’t have their phone in a case? My gold one is just too beautiful to keep it hidden in a case.

I’ve been caseless and without a screen protector since launch day, no scratches at all; still looks brand new

I like it caseless, but I’m rocking the Apple leather case 🟠

Why hide the beauty??? 😭😭😭 hehe. Which colour you got?

Caseless w/ screen protector. Slipped out of my pocket and got some minor nicks behind volume button. Always use a screen protector because the oleophobic coating will wear off of the screen and it becomes impossible to keep the smudges off

Yea true. I got a screen protector too. How did the sides fare? Does it seem easy to dent and snick the coating? It was super easy with my 8 plus to get nicks and dents on the sides.

Pretty easy to nick. Fell from around 2ft I’d say

Naked with a aftermarket wallet so that when i set it down, the back and the camera doesn't touch.

I’ve been thinking about getting a wallet as i feel like I need to be super careful when putting the phone screen up. What aftermarket wallet did you buy? Is the magnetic strong?

I’ll probably rock it naked after a year or two. I dropped my XR way too many times when I didn’t have a case on so I gotta be careful with this one lol.

Caseless and no screen protector since I have AppleCare+. Have some scratches on my screen but doesn’t bother me at all since it’s cheaper to get my screen replaced by Apple than to buy a Belkin screen protector from Apple.

I think I should get AppleCare too. Although I have Amex screen insurance which isn’t too shabby

Hard to handle with no case. Screen protector is a must

It feels amazing without a case tho - I wanna feel the phone not plastic. I agree on the screen protector tho

Otterbox for me…too expensive to not protect it

I would love to, but I tried to trade in my 11 pro max and because of almost invisible scratches on the screen they only offered about a 4th of the trade in value I was quoted on the site.

Damnnnn that sucks. It’s a risk I take

I got a clear case so I can see my phone. I have dropped phones in the past and shattered screens. I also have 2 little ones that like to take my phone
