Case or no case

That is the question. Taking a poll on whether people are casing the M8's or going commando? LOL. I think the build of the phone is too beautiful to cover up with a case and I do have an OEM verizon holster/case combo that I have had it in and I think it sounds slightly clearer naked. What are everyone's thoughts?
 
I'm using the M7. I bought a black case from a local store. The case is slim and perfectly fits. Having it cased makes me feel at ease should I unintentionally drop my phone or whatsoever.

Ideally I would like to find a slip in case where I would have the ability to keep it safe in a case when transporting it but able to show off the beauty of the M8 and be able to use it naked as I feel it sound slightly better without a case. If anyone know of any slip cases that fit the M8, please let me know. Thanks!!

The HTC Dot case is neat and functional without adding bulk. I sometimes put the phone (in the DAT case) in my pocket, but sometimes use a belt pouch case (phone kept in DOT case).

I have used the Otterbox commuter case on my past couple phones because the phone will get dropped at some point. I have already had my M8 bouncing on the corners across the driveway without a scratch. That wouldn't have been the case if it was naked.

I usually don't use cases on my phones but this time around I picked up the M8 as part of the Edge program. So if I intend to trade it in it needs to be in a least a decent state at the time. So... I have a case on it. Not a fan of cases but... meh.

No case on mine since the launch day - I use the car dock so can't be arsed with taking it in and out all of the time. Saying that, if I know I'm going to be putting it at risk of damage I will put it in a two piece case for the day.

Touch wood not dropped it onto anything hard yet and so far just a few light scratch marks on the body

I paid for this phone so want to enjoy its beauty for myself, not save it for someone else to enjoy

Itskins Zero cases. Goes on like a glove, fits like an invincible condom, but will not protect you from a dropped phone or a pregnant ex girlfriend.

Seriously, it's aesthetically pleasing for those of you who hate cases and want a little protection.

I only got my M8 yesterday, so I'm just using the semi-transparent rubber one that came in the box. I'll be on the lookout for something a little slicker. But it does the job for now. My M8 is blue, so something to match would be cool

My Barely There case is crystal clear so whatever color the phone is really shines through. The only thing this image really doesn't show is a small company logo centered but below the black line on your M8 near the bottom. Imagine this logo without the case-mate wording and clear.

I've never used a case in 15 years of cell phones... No way I'm starting with this one. Don't know how anyone can stand to cover up this beauty.

curious how long people have had the m8 uncased and how they look (scratches, etc...)....i just feel that i am going to drop it since it is so slim and slippery.

I've used Seidio cases on my last three phones because I drop everything. For my dazzling gold M8 I got the Dilex to match. To my disappointment, one arm of the hard shell wasn't flush with the soft layer. Tried a second one from Amazon. It had the same problem. I called Seidio and now I'm waiting for a third try. I can only wait and see.
