Who has the stones to rock the Note 5 without a case

I love the build quality of the Note 5 so much that I really don't want to use a case, as with a case you can no longer enjoy the compact size and the quality feel of the material.

However of realization that glass and concrete don't usually go well together, and my inadequately sized grapefruits, I went out today and bought a case.

But who here rocks the Note 5 without a case, show of hands?
 
I just have a Spigen screen protector and a dbrand skin. I tried on a folio case from Samsung but I didn't like having to maneuver the flip cover just to take quick notes, so I returned it. That being said, my hand is nearly big enough to one-hand operate this phone, so I can see why to some people a case is a must.
 
I have a Ringke Fusion Crystal arriving today. A little concerned though about reviews saying how difficult it is to remove the S-Pen when the case is on.
 
Got my Ringke Fusion Crystal. Fits very well with no looseness, the clear glossy back shows smudges bad. The disappointing part is just like many have reported that bought this case.....removing the S-Pen is near impossible. The hole in the case that surrounds the S-pen opening is quite deep and it makes all but the pointiest of fingernails very difficult to reach into the hole and push on the S-pen to make it pop out, then reinstalling it is just as difficult.....Back it goes...:(
 
I wanted to rock my beautiful new note 5 bare, but I also bought the Samsung flip cover, it's adds some weight to the phone and minimal protection. The flip cover unfortunately shows a lot of smudges and fingerprints [emoji31]

I did not install a screen protector because a buddy told me the glass is strong enough, but guess what within a week I scratched the glass! !!

I was so mad at myself, I called Verizon and I was sent a brand new phone (it took a little bit of work but it worked) but this time I have a Tempered Glass :) on it.
