Do I need a case for my iPhone 4?

Good question bro, I was asking myself the same question when I got mine. I decided to pick up an excellent case for myself that seems to protect pretty good with a minimalist type of vibe (very thin, w/o getting in my way).

Check it out for yourself and see what you think @ http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260876233643 , be sure to look at the reviews for the case at the bottom.

Take it easy!

Glass front, Glass back. Very slippery in hands.

You decide, but don't come crying when it breaks.

Saturday, day after the release of the 4s, guy in Best Buy with a 4s and a cracked screen. He was NOT happy. No warranty against damage.

Or you can ad it to your home owners insurance and toss it around like a Frisbee!

I just went with the std apple bumper and don't use an screen shield never had problems

and know many people who go without any case at all

it all comes down to slippery hands and how many keys and lid cigars you keep in the same pocket as the phone

I have different cases I use for different times. I hate the feel of the phone with no case. Way to slippery for me.

I tried the LifeProof case and really wanted to like it, but I did not. I hated the way it made the screen feel.

I use a Mareware Accent case when out 90% of the time. It adds little to the size. Feels good in my hands, and covers the screen.

When at home, I just have it in a cheap silicone case.

When I Bicycle, and use the GPS (which ***** battery), I have it in a PhoneSuite elite case that gives me incredible battery life. Costco has these on sale.

Here's a drop test for the iPhone http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elKxgsrJFhw

I apologize, the link has been changed for the iPhone 4/4S (polycarbonate) Moshi iGlaze Cases to http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260880771371.

They come in 10 different colors.

I too had the same dilema after getting my 4s. A device this beautifully designed should not be hidden. I've opted for the Zagg Invisible Shield which protects both sides of the device from scratches and then went with a Scosche bumper. I've have to say that the Zagg is by far the best screen protection I've owned. Doesn't smudge nearly as bad as others and is very durable.

I think much of your choice depends on your use of the phone. If I were taking my phone outdoors and doing more rigorous activity, I'd think about a more protective case.

I use the CaseMate Hula with my white 4S, and it's perfect. It looks great, and I've already dropped it rather forcefully in the month or so that I've had it with no damage. I love it.

I'm anti-case, but since the battery issue with the 4S, I picked up a mophie battery case and actually, like the feel of the phone better with it on...

It comes down to your personal needs. If you like hiking, have heavy duty work, etc. you may want to look into a built case like the Otterbox Defender or the Griffin Survivor.

If you are a careful one, you probably don't need a case. I use cases sparingly, and they're light like the Apple Bumper and the Otterbox Commuter. I'm thinking about upgrading to an Incipio Stowaway case.

If you're on the fence, buy a cheap case and see how you like it.

One thing I should stress is to take the phone out of the case every few days and clean it. If the phone is left in a case too long, you can scratch it since dirt and debris can get inside cases easily.

No, the only reason you would need a case is if drop your phone a lot

-I don't use a case and my phone looks brand new I only use a screen protector
