It's hard not to really love the design of the iPhone 4 and 4S. However, we all know it's easy to damage.
I have tried many cases, and each of them protected my phone well. I'm currently using the Speck CandyShell case, and have used other Speck products as well. I have also gone with and without screen protectors (last time I went without, i paid dearly).
However, I want to be able to go naked next time I grab a new phone. Besides the obvious precautions, what do ya'll do to keep your uncovered iPhone's safe?

Preventing iPhone Damage Without Cases or Covers
There are really only a couple things you can do. Obviously find a nice slip-case for your belt or bag that you can pull your phone out of quickly. If you have something like the iPhone 4 with a slick surface on the back, I have seen products that stick on like a screen protector. Almost naked. The point of using them on the 4 is that the 4 will slide off of any surface that is even slightly inclined without it.
If you absolutely must go naked with your iPhone, I recommend installing clear Zagg screen protectors on the front and back (there are Zagg mall popup stores where you can have it applied professionally which I highly recommend if you don't want to see bubbles, dust, etc). They're indestructible and I believe they come with lifetime replacements for a small fee. I've done it on the back of my iPad and it was money well spent!
