So can a person use a cell phone case or one of those gel skins over the phone and still have NFC work? This phone might be dame near bulletproof but I would maybe like some added protection for my new red 920.

It should. Well, unless your case is an inch thick or something. LoL

well i probably will not get one but I am a fan of those gel cases.

As long as the crap around the camera doesn't scratch easily (900), I won't use a case.

Gonna let you peeps figure it out, so by the time I get mine, I'll know if I need a case or not.

It should not.
Back camera strip is now made of some sort of ceramic material. Buttons will be made from this as well.
You can see it on the hands-on videos and pictures where the material is more grainy and ruff. Not shiny like on the 800 and 900.

Time will naturally tell how good it actually is, but it can't be any worse what there was previously. Never used case on my N9 or Lumia 800, wont use it on Lumia 920 either.

when i got my lumia 900 first thing i did was get a piece of clear scotch tape and cover the whole camera area, then with a razor cut the access off. looks great and no scratches.

Why even bother getting a red phone if you're just going to put it in a case?

Resell value! Actually I find even with the matte the phone is a bit slippery. A 900 with a thin TPU case was the perfect thickness to me.

Unless I've just been careless with my other phones (I am generally very careful but accidents happen), I'll want at least an impact case and one that will fit in a belt clip. I am also not sure how scratchable the back cover us.
