iPhone X and the risks of going case-less

i'm considering going without case , want some feedback others planning on doing , perceived risks involved in going case-less.

when had iphone 4/4s (both black , white) never used case. i'm careful iphones , never once damaged them. when 6 came out, protruding camera , slippy aluminum convinced me case. tend place phone on table surface i'm sitting @ , worried camera lens become scratched because seems more vulnerable flush lens of older iphones. don't need iphone flawless, major scratches annoy me , want make sure camera lens never damaged.

we've got new iphone that's gone more grippy glass still retaining protruding camera.

i've got questions:
-have used iphone 6-8 without cases? if so, how has camera lens held up?
-for iphone x, think silver or space grey hold better without case?

 

i’ve had every iphone since 3g (minus 6s), , ever had case 6. darned slippery, couldn’t risk it.

i’m using jet black 7 naked, , have had no issues visible scratches, none @ on camera lens. there micro scratches on phone, have them.

i’m careful phone, not anal it. never put in pocket keys, put down on hard surfaces, , live within walking distance of beach, sand part of environment.

year in, have no regrets not using case. i’m on at&t next, , i’ll trading phone in x, reasonably sell in excellent condition.
