Not using packaging or case
iPhones in their "naked" beauty certainly look great. However, even the most careful and responsible user can experience all kinds of accidents, which can result in a fall, bump, or other way of damaging the iPhone. Cosmetic defects in the form of scratches are the better scenario in these cases. If you want to protect your iPhone and at the same time make its original appearance stand out, you can get a transparent silicone case or a cover with a tempered glass back.

Exposing the iPhone to extreme temperatures
