Skin vs Case vs Both vs None - Nexus 6P Accessories

Just wondering what the majority is thinking of going with (or already has) for their 6P, be it a back-only or full frame skin, a case, both or nothing.

Dbrand skin for me.

Screen protector either Intellisheild Tempered Glass or the Spigen film with a back skin (I have a white dbrand and a galactic slickwrap on order). I have a cheap clear case from Spigen coming too may or may not use that until I find a better case I really like.

Going raw dogg for sure. I will probably get a tempered glass screen protector though.

Skin + clear case. Or, if a good one ever gets released, skin + bumper. Every single shattered screen I've seen from either myself, coworkers, or friends have been from corner impacts.

Cases that don't cover up curved sides of the screen?

Anyone know of any cases that don't overlap the curved sides of the screen? They feel so nice and I'd hate to cover them up with a case.
similar to this:

(Only overlapping corners or maybe top/bottom)

Ringke Rearth
You will find 90% of Silicon or TPU cases will cover all of the edges, however most hard covers will not. I would search for hard covers if I were you. Personally I would not leave any part of the edge exposed as just 1 drop on to any part of those exposed areas can and in many cases have cracked the screen on many models. Just be extra careful. It's happened to me twice the second time wasn't my phone
I have The Ringke Slim case. It levels with the curve glass and fits perfectly.
+1 for Ringke Slim. Very nice case on revised edition, fits in like a puppy

X-Gear EXOSkin [FullBodySkin]

http://www.xgearlive.com/products/android/lg/exoskin-lg-nexus-4
Has anyone tried one of these skins? They look very similar to dbrand skins which is what I just ordered, but X gear provides a full body skin for a couple dollars extra?

I'm interested to know as well. Anyone using this or had this for their nexus 4?
bubinga wood skin
I just installed mine tonight. Back of it is flawless and so easy to put on. Feels like real wood. The only beef I have is the front side. It does not protect the actual screen of the phone.....so I tried to install it over my BSE clear skin protector. Wasn't the best move (if perfection was what I was going for) because I ended up ripping the thin sides off to make installation over a barely dried wet applied clear skin. Still looks awesome though and I really really like it overall.
If I had to do it over again....I would have installed the front EXOskin over a tempered glass protector for the complete look. The reason the EXOskin didn't play well with the clear skin already on the phone is that the EXOskin is very adhesive. I think it would have been better over something like tempered glass. That would have given it protection over the actual screen and a wood look elsewhere.
Like I stated though....love mine.

What do you think of this case?

Pretty sexy yet protective
Here's the link:
http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartp...es/samsung-galaxy-s-4-dualpro-shine-case.html
I might buy it, the problem is that i keep buying cases...I've already got 2.
My wife had 2 incipio cases for her Droid charge. They look good and protect pretty well, but the hard shell will break.

I've got that case in a carbon fiber finish. It looks great, but it is very slippery and sometimes hard to hold. It does a decent job of protecting the phone though. Before I traded up to the 32gb, I dropped my 16gb onto a tile floor from waist high and no damage done.
I like it, but it sees too thick, sadly.
they sell this at my local sams club.
looks too much like the speck candyshell, and in my opinion the candyshell looks better.
I like Incipio's feather cases though.
I like the black one better.
Thinking about getting either Incipio DualPro in black or wait for the DualPro Shine in black.

Spigen Ultra Flip View not recommended

I did buy one then the first the glass clear was broken... Then I asked for a replacement then I got another scratched on the glass clear for the S-View... I don't know what Spigen doing with this case but the screen of he S-View is terribad it was scratched then I put the micro fibre for clean more scratch....
Everything else on this case is good but not this screen.
I lost money for this case. The Slim Armor S-View is perfect if you want a case go for another and not the Ultra Flip View.
Resistant to scratch? This is not true, scratched from the micro fibre for clean...

I suggest you to contact them, they have a great customer service. and mention to them the sctraches at the arrival for the case
Yeah I won't buy anymore spigen products. I had the ultra flip case and within a month it ripped. Bought another case "slim armor" and it doesn't even fit properly. I have just given up. And their customer service sucks and they are very shady.

Thoughts on a non-metal bumper "case"?

What do you guys think about something like this for the Note 4?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pink-Flexib...t=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&hash=item259a661c2a
I already have a screen protector on it and I figure with the back, it's replaceable in a worst case scenario!
Would this type of bumper be any good? More than anything I think it would just provide lips so that I could place it down on a table without worrying about scratching...

And there are a view different kinds, like this clear one (which is also "hard TPU")
http://www.ebay.com/itm/CLEAR-WHITE...t=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&hash=item5b089f8ccd
I have a different bumper case; it's TPU but the openings look very similar to the one's linked. IMO, these cases shouldn't be considered ideal for drop protection. I've looked and the camera bezel protection is nil; maybe some protection, if dropped on a flat surface. Not confident in that but sitting on a flat surface may be OK.
I just use it around the house or quick outings. I just don't plan on dropping this phone with this case but that's a risk. The case seems sure to grip in my hand holding and transferring to and from my belt mounted pouch; feels lighter, slimmer and easier on/off as well as holding in landscape view. My 2ยข.
