Thinnest iPhone 6 Case?

Maybe if you can offer a few examples of ones on ebay instead of imagining it, it would be better. All the <$5 cases are TPU and not hardshells like the ones being discussed in this thread.
On a different note, all of these ultraslim cases are either on the manufacturing process or out of stock for the iPhone6 Plus
I am going to return the AppleSilicone case because it makes the phone feel even bulkier, I wish I had one of these guys in hand by now.same here, not crazy about shipping from china though, the veil is from the us i believe.
it looks like smoke or black to me
anyway i like the shumuri better, covers everything
Yup. The Shumuri is interesting, but I'm not buying anything shipped from China. One, the wait is too long and two, I don't care who makes them, these cases will wear out over time. So does a small brand in China have a warranty for US customers? Even if they do, will they honor it?
As for the el cheapo clones on eBay, been there done that. The quality is all over the place and you get what you pay for. I've had good experience in quality consistency with the Caudabe Veils that I've bought and they've been really good with sending me replacements. I don't know why they're not selling on Amazon though - I bought all my 5s Veils on Amazon with free two day shipping.

You have to learn to search better. There are tons of matte pp hard iphone 6 cases on ebay.
Yeah, you know, sort of like the "guarantee" Caudabe has for their products under which I've been able to get free replacements for my 5s Veils. You know, that sort of thing.
i bought this cheapo case from Ebay..supposedly the thinnest case at .3mm.. should arrive in a couple days.

This conversation feels like deja vu. There was a really long thread about this for the 5s as well. Those cheap eBay cases are cheap for a reason. They take forever to get here since they're shipped from China and then what you get isn't necessarily what you ordered. Sure, you might get lucky, but more often than not you'll get something that's different or not quite as nice as what appeared in the photos.
true...if that was the case. This seller is 30minutes drive from where i live. Im in the Bay Area. I guess, will find out soon.
I picked up this .02mm case and had it a day before my 6 arrived. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=201166925926
Super thin but lacking extra grip I'd like to have. Any cases that are close to this thin with some tackiness to them?
I picked up the Photive Bumper a Case from Amazon and it's decent (again, not as tacky as I'd like). I also picked up the Tech21 (way too big) and OtterBox Symmetry. The OB is actually pretty slim, for an OB. I just need something with some actual grip on it.

This! Where can I get a thin case that still allows me to swipe to my hearts content?! The apple cases have this same issue.
They are all the same. I have bought the < $5 on ebay and the $20 versions. In almost all cases they are the same.
I never have to buy cases from china. Filter your search in ebay and you will find them from us sellers.
the Shumuri and Veil seem to be very similar
any noticeable difference between these 2 ?
i'm not especially looking for the thinnest as i also want my case to compensate partially the thickness of the camera
but also durable quality and no material covering the round edges of the screen to keep the smooth gestures

I live in the east coast and this seller seems to be in the US and will get me this case within 4-5 days. I have purchased numerous cases like these(for me & my friends) and they have worked quite well. The highlight of these cases are they are dirt cheap and there are a lot of us who prefer cases which complement the iphone rather than fully cover up the phone in some other color.
The Shumuri case apparently has no lip. It stops at the aluminum. I'll be ordering one soon.
