This works… for people doing an office job. Welders, truckers, etc definitely need more protection.
I would prefer not to have a case on my iphone 15 pro, but considering how expensive it was and the cost of getting another one, I can’t take that chance!
Yep, huge barrier for most.
Same here with my iPhone 15 base model. I got the pink and the matte back is so nice. I use it caseless when I’m in bed at night lmao. That’s the only time I’ll allow it
@@Daniela-2208I do the same and love the feeling.
Apple care plus save you from all of that. Maybe not the rails, but the glass on both sides is cheap to repair if you have insurance.
Especially if you are not upgrading every year and wanting to maximize the longevity of your phone, use a case.
The 15 Pro Max is the first iPhone since the 8 Plus that I have not been using a case. I love to hold and look at it. A great looking and powerful tool. I am still careful of where I place it on.
Took my 15 pro max out of the case to watch this video in 4D
Ooooh!
4D?
@@ayushaditya9420So you can experience the device overheating I guess
Idk I don't use iPhones, just know that people have been bitching about it overheating
@@justinli826nah the overheating is gone now it was only there 1-2 months after the iPhone 15s got released
I think a nice middle ground is a naked iPhone + leather MagSafe wallet (not FineWoven as it’s not as grippy)
At work I use a heavy duty case, but outside of work I go without a case but I do have a screen protector and I use the ANDAR leather MagSafe wallet on my 15 pro and it adds some added grip to prevent slipping. And it’s an amazing feeling getting to see the phone the way it was designed. Plus I have Apple care and it’s only 30 bucks to replace the back glass or front glass so I have less worry while rocking it without a case.
Thanks for stress testing. I would add that a case-less iPhone means that you are that case, should leave the device in a pocket. Not placing it around on ‘strange’ surfaces. It’s a lifestyle with degrees of implication for some.
Non iPhone user here, my galaxy s24 was only 800, but the anxiety is real going caseless. I use a case 99% of the time except for a random weekend I'll take the case off.
Although I trust the crack resistant, they are very easy to scratch so I opt for screen protector.
For case, I go caseless for a few month and dropped to rough surface twice, and the dent are noticable and make the phone lose value more
I have my iPhone for nearly 6 years now. For first 3 years I had nearly non stop case and screen protector. Since I had it for 3 years, I went mostly caseless and without screen protector. I love it and don’t drop it. Love the caseless feel of it.
I stopped using cases years ago. The Rockwell hardness required to scratch glass isn't in materials in houses or cars. I keep my phone in one pocket and anything else I need to carry in the other. I never broke a phone or even got scratches on my devices.
I’ve been caseless and screen protector-less for years now. My phone is the Xiaomi mi 11, I paid 975€ for it new. Screen protector was pre-applied but it took it off a couple of days into owning it. Phones feel SO much better with a case. I have no cracks in the screen. I have 3 small scratches you don’t see unless you’re looking for them. I have a some tiny cosmetic damaged on the metal around the phone, but they do not degrade the experience.
My previous phone was a galaxy s6, and my next will probably be iPhone 16 or 17 pro. Of course without protection
I'm using my 15 pro without case since last 3 months, got few scratches and 1 very small scuff after dropping it. It stays cool, feels awesome to use. It's worth it, using it like a tool.
FYI I have a screen protector, so no compromise there.
Been using phones caseless since my first phone >15 years ago, and this video pretty much sums up all of it especially at the beginning of the video, which pretty much repeats everytime you get a new phone. After a few drops or scratches, you end up being ok with treating the phone as a tool.
"When naked, you just don't have to worry about feeling squishy". Umm...I beg to differ, Sir. 😭😂😭😂
Ha
You are brave!
i just got an iphone 15 pro (black).
i went caseless with my previous iphone 13 mini. which eventually got a couple scratches on the screen.
so with my 15 pro i got a screen protector, but thats it. still caseless and its been about 2 weeks.
just dont drop the phone and youll be fine.
I got a small ding on the corner of mine. The natural titainium hides it well and it is a very small imperfection, but still... I like my phones in pristine condition. Not even if people don't notice the mark, I do and it kinda sucks. All case all the time from now on.
I've pretty much always used the Apple leather case on my iPhones. Since they stopped making them with the 15, I switched back and forth between the Apple silicone case and an ESR clear case. I never really got comfortable with either one, and the silicone case is a dust magnet. So for the past few weeks I've been going careless on my 15 Pro and using my MagSafe wallet. it's been great, and the wallet give just enough of a barrier when placing it on a table. Plus, I have Apple Care, so that helped with the decision.
If you want that leather feel again, I 10/10 recommend the MOFT leather case. Feels good in the hand and doesn’t ad a ton of bulk either
@@internetfrnd6496 Thank you for the recommendation. I’ll check them out.
I use a Ringke ultra slim case its a hardcase super thin the best in-between having and not having a case
I’ve been really enjoying my pitaka case! It’s like a half-naked, a swim suit if you will 😂
Adds grip and “set down” insurance, with almost no added bulk even if not much drop protection. leaves the buttons exposed and most importantly the bottom edge for swiping. It’s a great compromise!
Also, I LOVE my flolab screen protector. It reduces glare and reflections a LOT, not as much as matte but very close, but keeps the inky black contrast and colors of glossy. Check it out before going back to matte, I’d love to hear your thoughts!
@@kalafalas246
I also use (and love) Flolab screen protectors and the Pitaka Mag EZ 5.
Closest thing to no case.
Also….Mous makes a great aramid fiber super minimal case that I might actually like better than the Pitaka.
My screen protector broke abit ago- I’ll be checking this one out for sure!
As for cases, I have one for my current iphone but I doubt I’ll get one on my next one simply because it’ll make it feel too bulky & I’m here rocking the last “small” iPhone. I hate big phones
iPhone 13 Pro user here. After 2.5 years no scratches either on display or back, except few tiny oleophobic ones like seen on yours. Until today when i finally managed to drop it from my hard on hard surface, a long thin scratch going from top to bottom:) But being caseless can be done. Just like Zollotech doesn't have a case for his everyday iPhone, saying heat retention and other things long-term affect it.
Key: I always wear the phone in the pocket where i have nothing else solid, i always wear my keys and other smaller objects in left pocket, and my Iphone in the right pocket. People wear their phones together with other crap, this is the most common scratch creating environment after a while.
I found the arc case - it covers just the top and the bottom, and levels the phone camera bump when you lay it on the table
The wobble is annoying on a caseless phone.
$99 for a case is wild 😢
Trying with my 14 pro max space black with sim tray
Actually had to use my phone (S24+) without any protection when I first got it back in February. Was babying it but otherwise nothing. I take my phone out of its case a few times because I do like how it feels. Maybe when my case wears out I could go caseless again
I normally dropped my phone once or twice a year. But when I went caseless on my iphone 15PM, the drop has now become countless. Its so slippery and even dropped itself from a table sometimes when faced down.
I haven’t used a case on any phone for 5 years. By the time I’m switching, the phone has always looked the exact same as day one. I’ve always had AppleCare as a backup, but have never needed to use it.
I used a simple aluminum frame and a skin on the back for a while. It was as close to careless as I’ve tried yet. I did drop it a few times and everything was ok. I’ve been using a cheap silicone case I paid $7 for but it sticks to my pocket really bad. The frame has to be replaced every few months and I guess I could just buy a few at a time. The cost adds up though and I’m thinking about trying an aramid thin case next.
Very interesting video that I was looking for. The reason I do not use the iPhone without a case is that it gets to slippery. Although I have an Apple care + plan I still stay with the rebel flex case that gives me good protection but still isn’t bulky.
Been using my iphone like this every day. iPhones can take tortures quite well actually, fell a couple of times, once on rough concrete from a height of 4 feet, just a tiny spec of scratch on the edge. No complain till now
i still have the 14 pro max and the only thing that bugs me with going caseless is the fingerprints on the stainless steel so if i got a 15 pro max i would probaly go caseless
I’m actually doing this experiment as well and so far so good going caseless 👍🏻 Have not dropped the phone so far anyway lol Thanks for the follow-up video!
Good luck! What’s the hardest part?
@@JerrySchulze the mindset of not using a case; like where I set it down
I feel that the more you handle the phone without a case, your muscle memory makes it less likely to drop. And yes, it's hard to remember not to just throw it around or set it on a granite counter.
I had never dropped an iPhone, took the case off my iPhone SE. A month later it slipped out of an inner pocket on to concrete and the back glass broke. I got it fixed and a couple of weeks later it happened again. So the grippy case also prevent falls, in my ... case.
Been caseless for a couple months only a few scratches on the 15 pro max
Only a few will add up to many 😜 lol
I use the case when outside my house in ambients where I’m not used to. When at work sometimes I remove the case as I got familiar with the place where I am, but when walking on the streets the case stays 100% of the time.
Best cases for no wobble to me are the Phone Rebel and the Nomad Rugged case. I usually use the Benks Kevelar on my 14 Pro Max as it has the best in the hand feel to me. I always use a case because of my job and because I KNOW ME! LOL For what they cost, a case is a must IMO. AND a screen protector! I use Spigen.
what about the lens? It seems like they are hit everytime the phone is resting on a desk
chipped the border on the camera (between titanium and camera glass) on the top of my bottom camera on my 15PM! with a case! it irks me!!! but it still does its job so that’s good lol
15PM is my first phone that I use without case. I’ve never broken any of my phones. So I decided to give up on cases. I bought my iPhone in October and it only has one little scratch above top speaker.
I use to not to put any case but I drop my iPhone 12 max before and crack it screen since then when I got the 14 pro I use a transparent high quality case, drop it a few times already luckily no dent or crack
I tried I phone 15 pro with out case and screen protector for couple of months , It’s so slippery and it fall down and cracked the screen
I use a screen protector on the front and the shargozy back glass screen protector it's 95% naked and the device does feel alot more premium caseless but I have apple care plus so if I damage it it's a small price . Great video and thoughts .
Does MagSafe still work properly ?
@@SajiRai yes
Is it me or are the i phones becoming less durable with each release? The iPhone X 11 12 and the 13 are the best in durability.
I prefer the iPhone without a case (but only in certain situations) where I’m sure it won’t get scratches or damaged in any way, like my Bed-side table where I just place it upside-down into its case at an angle for cooling while charging it and even if I do drop it, my rooms have carpeted floors so I know it will be ok. However I might put it (fully) into its case when I’m taking it into the Kitchen or Bathroom and when I go Outdoors with it.
I love the feel of the naked iPhone, cases are so clumpy ….screen protectors definitely affect touch
Omg I could not do it I was scared I was going to drop my phone, my son took his off and shattered the back of his 14 pro max 😢 I am glad you did it with out breaking your phone
Been luck, so far…
Hi! I have used the iphone 15 pro and iphone 14 pro max without a case for a few months, I bought them both new a few months ago. I only use screen protector glass. I used to put them in the case right away, now not, the 14 pro max with its stainless steel frame sits better and safer in the hand, it is safe to hold in the hand and in the pocket, the iphone 15 pro has a silkier, smoother frame and is not as secure in the hand, but the pro is smaller , than the max, and because of that, it's easier to hold the smaller one more securely in the hand and also in the pockets, and I don't want to put them in the case anymore, I have different ones, and they all feel sticky, greasier under the fingers, than pure metal and glass. It remains to be seen what will happen next, maybe for a longer hike or a similar longer walk, I might change the cases for them, I haven't put them on yet, because using natural metals and glass feels much better and cleaner than a plain case. Any kind of scratches and dents on the frames, I wouldn't mind, I think maybe they decorate the phone instead, but I don't like scratches on the glass, that's why I use screen protectors. Thank you!
Same! I’m using the 13 pro max since almost 2 years now and from the last two months I’ve gone caseless with screen protector. No I can never go back to a case!
Yep, I agree that the wider sides of the 14 have more grip.
Where can I get the wallpaper used in this video?
I was looking for it too! I think it's called MacOS 14.0 Sonoma wallpaper
I always use a protective case and screen protector. I'm obsessive-compulsive about little scratches and dings.
I want to protect by thousand dollar investment. Accidents can happen and the case is good insurance. Sure, if you're really unlucky and the phone falls in just the wrong way, it may still damage the device. But I feel better minimizing the odds.
I carry a case around with me but I’m naked. Sorta. I do have a screen protector and a pop socket wallet. I have the new leather feeling one, it has a better magnet on the back that makes it great on a naked iPhone. I love it. 14 pro purple in 256.
So the micro scratches on the screens are just from the oleophobic coating. That's a relief to hear cause the moment I saw my first scratch from my 15 pro I immediately slapped a screen protector on it.
So far they are.
The scratches are in the glass. Oleophobic coating is just a coating for smoothness.
I think the 15 Pro has the softest Glass on the market. Lots of people complain about display being scratched within days. Titanium is also softer than stainless steel.
I’m super skeptical about that because ever since I used a 12 and later iPhones the glass has had the least amount of micro scratches. Just look at a few of Jerryrig everything durability tests and you will notice significantly less scratches on a 12 and later iPhones and S24 ultra.
Also there are just a few minor scratches on my 15 pro rail. Can’t say the same thing on my 12 pro which had so many noticeable micro scratches on the steel just from a few days caseless.
I always use my phones without a case, xperia sp, one plus 3t, one plus 5t, one plus 8 pro, iphone 14 pro and now 15 pro max. The only "damage" that is inflicted (as long as u dont drop it) is the oleophobic coating. Once gone it makes it easier to get fingerprints, dust etc settle on the screen unless you wipe it with a microfiber. Typically unless u drop ur phone or u work in an industry where the phone is prone to some form of physical abuse, they usually remain just fine.
Your video is like me talking to myself always.
Thats all my videos are. My own idiosyncrasies.
RhinoShield bumper is the best case if you live in hot area like me in Croatia RhinoShield bumper 👌
screen protectors are a must at least
I would like to rock my phone naked, but thus far, I'm still timid about that and have been using the Apple silicon case.
I have no screen protector on my iPhone 15 but a good aluminum case by Pelican. I have no scratches or damage whatsoever and my phone has been dropped on a tile floor multiple times.
Pelican, like the big case people?
The titanium frame dings easily, even with a thin case.
I used to use a case on my phone, but when I dropped it, the case remained intact while the phone inside cracked. Since then, I don't see the value in cases anymore, as they didn't fulfill their purpose. I've been using my 14 Pro Max and now my 15 Pro Max without a case.
Took my iPhone 14p max out for 5min and back in the case it goes lol , can’t do it man.
Next phone I buy I’ll get apple care. Will always use a screen protector cos screen scratches irk me but I’m not fully against going fully caseless
one drop and its curtains have a look at the fragility on jerryrigeverything the back glass is super fragile. Get a case as soon as possible!
It’s not really about the glass being fragile. The reason why it broke so easily is because jerry applied a lot of force in two points of contact at the middle of the back. Titanum frame is very stiff, it does not allow the glass to „work” the stress as old aluminium frames did - frame doesn’t bend, the glass can’t flex as it’s held stiff all around… then it starts to crack.
Good news is you’ll never get that much force pushing the glass in when you drop the phone. Actually most cracks appear as the frame is bent in so glass starts cracking from the corner of your device. In this case more ridgid frame is better.
@@beegxxc9832 good luck with that just make sure u don’t drop it 🙏
I always go caseless. However, I always use a thin screen protector so the screen wont get all scratched up.
I dont spend 1300€ on a phone just to hide it under a thick case. I want to enjoy the design which is a big part of the flagship phone experience
Never used cases on any smartphone and mobile phone ever, 20+ years. But for my 13 Pro Max i bought this beautiful purple leather case and now i don’t get it why you should‘nt use a (leather) case, it’s just so much easier to use and care. No glascanon and you don’t have to baby your phone all the time, leather feels better and i often just throw my phone on the couch.
caseless since iphone 6. The best feels ever
Interesting!
I like keeping my phone looking like new for as long as I can, so I pretty much always use a case.
Where can I find that wallpaper
I was looking for it too! I think it's called MacOS 14.0 Sonoma wallpaper
@@Texted thanks
I would prefer a case for customization.
Yep, I get that.
Caseless on a 14 Pro is doable. On a 15 Pro? Absolutely not. That back glass is too fragile and the new frame construction isn’t as protective. The solution is to never drop the phone and use a nice thick skin.
Haha I got the iPhone 14 Pro when it released and have never used a case (I do use a screen protector tho). And I get that same comment all the time. People can't believe that I don't use cases. But hey man. I just like it that way.
My 15 Pro has been going commando since I bought it in the beginning of December 2023. If you’re prone to drop your phone, get a case. If not, don’t. Everyone shares their concern about my caselessness. It’s dropped twice off my nightstand onto a hardwood floor. Two mico scratches. What will happen will happen. Whatever.
Two words…Systematic Desensitization 😂😂😂
I did a similar experiment with my 14 Pro and 14PM. I definitely had to change the way I handled the phone. It really messed with my muscle memory. I have very dry hands but after a month I got used to it and didn’t care as much but you lose out on so many comfortable ways to grip the phone. Especially nowadays where I do everything with it.
It is a slippery son-of-a-gun. I have kids and so every now and then it would slip out of my home shorts cleaning up their toys.
One day I was rushing and was trying to quickly get it from the kitchen island and it flew out of my hand and luckily landed on the other side where it was hard wood floor instead of the kitchen tiles. I slapped it back in my Nomad leather case and it never came out since then. 😩
It's crazy how the screens take up to a 6 hardness to be scratched but pocket dust will go ham on it.
I always have a case and screen protector on my 14 pro
I use my phone caseless. When it's in my pocket while I'm sitting down, when I stand up I, put my hand on it to keep it from falling out. You should probably do the same. :)
MagSafe popsocket is all I use.
I bought an iPhone 15 pro Max(before returning it) and even though I didn't even use it much, the screen already scratched up. So to me, hell no.
I can’t stand cases. I never used one and only broke 2 iPhones since having one since iPhone 3G (2008). The trick for me is not over worrying about damage because I will guarantee have phone drops when I do.
I just use a screen protector, and Apple Care no case.
I have a case given the steep price of a new iPhone. I have a Spigen Ultra Hybrid clear case for my iPhone 12.
I’m too damn clumsy
always use a screen protector & case. hurts seeing over $1k device get damaged.
When I am at home I am case-less a majority of the time. When I leave the house I put one of my cases on it, just to be safe. I have Apple Care Plus but I don’t want to spend a day at Apple, getting it repaired. I upgrade on a yearly basis and I want to get the best trade-in value I can.
Just get the arc pulse you get the best of both worlds
Apple care keeps me from putting a case on
Caseless is fine but I would recommend a screen protector a good one ,phone screens scratch overtime in our pockets 😢 even if you don’t drop it , even tv screens can even get scratched with paper towels over time
Yeah me personally I believe that iPhones are made for you to hold without any protection like hold it naked and raw. like it’s just something about the phone that makes it feel awesome.😂
But yeah seriously I do understand if you are clumsy person yes if you think you’re comfy and don’t want to damage your phone you should get a case but otherwise you should at least try to hold your phone without a case and like get the feel of your phone just so you know what the phone feels like.
Otterbox only for me!
I've never bought a case for my iPhones over the years. I prefer to use the device as it was designed, and the design is pretty good!
Ya and you’ll also ruin and crack the phone to pay for repairs as it was intended as well 😂
@@adequatequalityapple care 👍
@@JackHackett1 Paying extra to protect a device you can already make the effort to protect yourself? Seems to me like you just really want to be seen with a naked iPhone and let everyone know you got it -_-
@@adequatequality Not to mention any kind of device care insurance is more expensive compared to buying a case and screen protector. My case and screen protector cost me maybe 60-70 dollars. Definitely could've gone cheaper (way cheaper if you go for a budget phone) but I wanted my case and screen protector to have both looks and functionality
To confidently use my phones caseless, I just use the same mindset I have with a laptop. I never put anything more than skins because the extra bulk is just not worth it and I already handle laptops carefully and never dropped one ever.
I've never put a case on my 4 years old phone 😅
imo they’re too expensive for the average consumer to justify not using a case. if my phone was a bit older, i might just for the sake of doing it, but not with one released within the last 3ish years.
i haven’t ever broken a phone before and i know that’s in part due to the fact that i always have a case and screen protector. i’ve shattered some screen protectors and messed up a few cases, but that’s a $30 mistake at most. a lot easier to swallow than a multiple hundred dollar replacement or repair.
years of caseless with the iPhone 12 Pro Max. Never going back to cases!!
I'm too clumsy for that, clear case is good enough for me
Subbed For the Balls
🎾🎾
screen protectors are not necessary but a case absolutely. just use lense cleaner and wipe the screen down once in a while you good..
For me it is the other way round. I never dropped phones, but I always get scratches
scratches when holding your phone in a pocket is a fkin no go since 2014
