Full protection for me. The S5 I'm testing has an Otterbox commuter and a glass screen on it currently. My Maxx has an Incipio case. I previously liked the TPU cases for the color options, but I felt they lacked in protection. I would have a screen protector on my Maxx if a glass one was available

Just case for me. I used to use a screen protector, but scratch resistance has really gone up with newer phones that use newer gorilla glass, plus glass feels SOOO much better and smudges a lot less.

I figure the case is essential to protect the corners of the phone. I'm sure the phone can still break by dropping it, but I would think the impact would be slightly reduced if it didn't hit the ground naked.

You might want to try a tempered glass screen protector. It looks and feels just like the natural screen, provides great protection and makes the phone even more durable. I love mine after years of the plastic protectors.

Otter Box Deffender with screen protector removed adding a Zagg shield is the BEST protection in my oppinnion. I have literally dropped it off a mountain... having no damage to the phone, and I was kicked by a horse directly to the phone..... No damage to the phone. When I was kicked I was wondering why it didnt hurt..... My phone protected me. LOL Knocked me on my butt for sure though.

The ONLY negative to using a case IMHO is that you must remove it to put the phone in a dock.

My G3 is going case-less. Tempered glass screen protector is a must. But, that shiny, plastic metallic body, does not need some cheap case to hide genius design of the metal appearance that will be fun to hold.
