My obsession is with minimal cases that are barely there. I was using clear or grey TPU cases for a long time. They nicely show off the iPhone and are practically invisible. I have tried out over a dozen cases since and my current favorite is the Scarf by Totallee. Very minimalistic. Had it for some time now and still looks great. I use it together with a thin tempered screen protector for some extra protection. Like the slimness of this combo.
Got a tip for us?

Am I the only obsessed with buying cases?

Hey, just curious if you've looked into the Caudabe XT or Shumuri Extra? Same thin case with the added benefit of full bottom coverage and has a small ridge around the camera cut-out so the lens is protected when laying the phone down. When going this very slim case route, I think it's a slightly better option.
Yeah, I did. I tried many different cases, but most did not last too long and started falling apart after a few weeks. The Scarf has held up really well and I love it.
I'm still looking for the perfect case for my iPhone 5 C !!! Someone has an idea ? Something slim but solid and not too visible ? Last case i've got did more damages than good to the back of my phone
My daughter had a Speck CandyShell Grip for her 5C and it was outstanding.

My daughter still has her 5c. Seems to switch between the OB Commuter and the Griffin Survivor Slim
She has a blue one that has a slight yellow outline. She likes it but I think prefers the commuter. She tends to be a bit clumsy

I'm sure either one is a fine, protective choice!

i am looking for a bumper for my 6 plus. by Bumper i mean the one which doesnt have any plastic or something at the back only the sides. talking about the one which apple used to sell for iphone 4.
thanks but i think it has a plastic back. i want only the protection of sides and no back.
Update: i just checked the review and its only the bumper. thanks i am going to get it.
Yep, it's pretty awesome. I still can't get over how small it is versus its stated 11.5 foot drop protection. I have a Tech21 Patriot case coming in a few days, and it has 13 foot drop protection, but I don't think anyone would call it small!

gotta say, after a long, arduous search since september, I have settled on my Atmos x3 until they release the x4. Great, quality materials and minimal bulk
I couldnt agree more.
The camera holes are unnecessarily large, and with the antenna bands, it makes it quite unappealing imo. I tried on the evomesh, which is their smallest camera cutout, and that was still too big and the case would come right off.
Currently sticking with my Atmos x3. Excellent drop protection, slim and a small camera cutout.
I may have to try the Thule.
Yes. Comes wit a specified screen protector. There are you tube videos out already. Should be out in may
