Will old iPhone 6/6 Plus cases fit the 6s/6s Plus? [MERGED]

iPhone 6 Plus silicone case fits my 6s plus perfectly. Hadn't seen a definitive answer yet, there it is.
A lot of cases for the iPhone 6 still fit the 6s versions http://appleinsider.com/articles/15/09/14/iphone-6-6-plus-cases-will-fit-apples-new-iphone-6s-series
Thats what I'm debating on..I've seen the force on the 6 plus but the non force looks better since the lip isnt as big..keep me posted on how it fits!
I have both the black and the clear Power Support Air Jacket (not the Apple force version) for my iPhone 6 and can confirm they both fitted fine on the iPhone 6S my friend picked up today. Usual difficulty putting on and in particular getting off but not much more so than on the 6.
Black leather Apple case for 6 fitted fine as well.
Sweet! Thanks for the info!
My main concern with the Air Jacket is the cutouts for the speaker and I guess all the other cutouts. They're so precise that maybe a few millimeters could throw them off-center?
Do you have any insight on how the speaker holes and other cutouts for the volume/lock buttons line up?
I don't have the 6S in front of me now but I just checked with my friend as he kept my clear case on the 6S and he's happy everything lines up as expected.
Okay I initially attempted to fit my old Air Jacket from my 6 plus to my new 6S plus, and it seemed unable to fit without breaking the case. However, after reading a few posts about them being able to fit, I re-attempted it from a different insertion angle and I got it to fit, but its very, very tight. I hope it can be removed without needing to break it.

Confirmed on my iPhone 6s Plus with Evutec Karbon S case. Fits on just fine, and the corners are just tall enough to keep the screen off a flat surface.
Man ok, thanks for the info. And is yours the one ordered directly from power support or is it the force version from the apple store?
My 6 silicone case fits my 6s perfectly (as does my 6 leather case), it doesn't seem any tighter and all the buttons line up for the perfect click.
Mine is the version sold directly from power support, so lower profile compared to the force/apple store/lipped version of the air jacket.

thanks for testing this out, guess I will wait to see if power support ends up releasing a different case or I may just bite the bullet and order it from the site or try the force version
Well, I got my 6S Plus in. The Air Jacket does fit, however as I suspected, the cutouts for the speaker are ever so slightly misaligned. It isn't a huge deal for me right now, but I'll still probably update when they come out with a new case. And knowing Power Support, they will. I can't see them being okay with the speaker cutouts not lining up correctly.
When using the speakerphone, the sound is definitely muffled. But it's still usable. Also, the tiny bit of lip that was there when using the Air Jacket with the 6 Plus is even less noticeable now. Not sure I'd advise setting your phone face down without an updated case.

I picked up my 6S Plus this am and tried purchasing Tech21's Evo Elite case. It did not fit the phone properly. The case sat flush with the screen providing no support if it were to be laid on its face. I ended up with the Apple's black leather case.
