    Yes, I own a case and glass screen protector. I went without a screen protector with an old Pixel and ended up with quite a few microscratches that drove me nuts. A friend of mine used a case but no screen protector on his iPhone and I don’t know how he does it. I’d be constantly worried about scratches.

    Otterbox case and UV applied screen protector, plus a popsocket. I absolutely love the UV wet apply protectors. They stay on so well and I’m yet to have an issue with them cracking.

    I stopped using a case a few years ago since they always felt too bulky.

    I just started going without a screen protector a few weeks ago too since I hardly drop my phone and when I have, a screen protector wouldn’t have saved me from the small damage it inflicted.

    Aside from a little paint scratched off from a corner (phone flew out of my pocket when I jumped while wearing some baggy shorts a few months ago), it’s been going great. 👍

    No protection plan or extended warranty or anything of that sort.

    I use a pretty basic case. It’s got some protection to dampen a fall but if it were to drop badly it would probably be screwed. I’ve had it for about a year and a half no major scratches or anything yet. I’ve been very meticulous not to put anything else that could scratch it in the same pocket as was a problem for me in the past >_<

    Basic silicone case, no screen protector, no damage. Have dropped it enough times over the 9 months I’ve owned it that I’m rather impressed by the complete lack of damage.

    I do not. I have the normal warranty and an extended protection plan, but that’s it. I’m normally pretty careful with my devices, and I’m not a fan of the extra bulk cases add to the phone.

    I paid $200 for an iPhone SE about 5 years ago, then put the phatest case I could find and a tempered glass screen protector on it. It’s practically in mint condition besides 3 battery replacements, and I can use it one handed!

    Pixel 5 with no case, matte screen protector mainly for low friction even on damp fingers, no protection plan (saves money), pristine condition (I don’t drop my phone). The only damage it ever gets is poor battery life so I usually get it swapped after a few years. This one I’ve only had for a year so far but I had the Pixel 2 for 5 years before that and it went through a couple battery replacements. It was still in pristine condition when I had to switch to the 5 because even a fresh install of lineage was giving me “system ui stopped responding” and other buggy junk constantly :(
