Just purchased a 128 gb 6 space gray. I think an all black or mostly black case would go well. I've looked at the Spigel Neo hybrids, versus iron shields, candy shells, otterbox. Want something relatively slim but can protect from a drop. I saw the otterbox symmetry cases. They're ok cept the big logo which I don't care for. Any suggestions?

I have the Symmetry in black for my Plus, it's a pretty nice case. I really wanted something with decent protection and no logo cutout. If you're not a fan of the Otterbox I've read great things about this case on the forums and it has excellent reviews on Amazon (especially for a $10 case)...

If you don't mind the logo cutout there's a version on that page called the Voyeur that looks like it has more protection on the corners.

Just ordered the voyeur. Looks good for 12 bucks too

I've had the Verus Iron Shield for the 6 and now the Spigen Neo Hybrid Metal for the 6 plus. I love them both. I sold the Verus when I decided I was getting the plus and would have gotten it over the Spigen but it wasn't available.

My 2 cents, you can't be the cost and overall feel of the NGP. Its on Amazon right now for $15


Yeah I've read the ngp being rated high. It's a soft case though right? I've also read the incipio rival is good too.

I like the NGP better personally. Doesn't stretch and has a slight lip


As an aside, I just went to this "verizon" dealer, although it is not authorized. They had a black NGP that I was considering buying as a back up. However, when I asked the price they told me $30. So i brought up the amazon page where it is currently listed at $15.72, they refused to budge. I actually laughed as I walked out

I thought the symmetry wasn't out yet for the plus? Or is it just certain colors and black is available?

I have a Symmetry on my 6, thought I would like the Apple leather case as that's what I have on my 5. I prefer the overall feel of the Symmetry.

The Symmetry is a winner to me.

Incipio Dual Pro

After looking at several cases, I wound up ditching my Spigen Capsule (not enough protection, IMHO) and getting an Incipio Dual Pro, mainly for the overall protection, especially the nice fat "front lip" which lifts the face-down screen off the surface where the phone rests. I read on some user reviews that the coating on the plastic (it's a two-piece case, hard plastic outside, TPU (?) inside) eventually wears off, but I'll worry about that later.

It doesn't look as nice as other cases out there, but black/black or black/grey are low-key enough to swing it.

I wanted info on the Evutec Karbon Osprey SI case for the 6, namely how much the front lip protrudes from the case, and sent them an e-mail, but never got a response back. Their loss.
