caseless
Lacking protective shell
Caseless describes something without a case or covering.
A caseless phone has no protective shell.
In computing, caseless comparison or caseless matching ignores the distinction between uppercase and lowercase letters: The search function is caseless, so "Apple" matches "apple".
In firearms, caseless ammunition has no metal cartridge casing—the propellant is molded around the bullet itself.
