Am I the only obsessed with buying cases?

I lose count of the amount of cases I have bought and will likely keep buying for my iOS devices. But I always end up back with my Apple leather case for my iPhone 6+ and my iPad Air usually ends up just having a skin, except when I take it out on the move. Then the real trouble begins, what case to choose, such difficult choices :D

I agree!! I have kind of taken a halt on cases and are on the hunt for Apple Watch bands now, but I'm still changing my phone case constantly
 
I use heaps of cases as well, anything that doesn't cover the front and doesn't add much bulk. Right now a custom hard leather case on the iPhone 6

Dwindling for me. Out of habit I check once in a while, but pretty much done. Unless we have a "What's your final case?" thread. ;)

My final case for a few months still is the Zoogue. Backups are the Magpul Field case and the Speck CandyShell Grip...but I haven't switched to those in a while.

Dwindling. I still like to look, but know that it makes no sense to buy more. When I get the itch I just change to one of the cases that I already own. Like the Otterbox Symmetry, Speck Mightyshell, and at this moment my 5s is wearing the Magpul field case.
 
I'm on/off with cases. At the moment I'm not using one, just a sleeve but watched this video last night, asked the guy what case he was using and bought today off Amazon!

Bad review for Ringke Fusion Slim case for iphone 6 made by Rearth in Plano, TX. I've had it a month, just dropped my phone and the glass on the phone cracked. This case did not protect my phone. When I called Rearth, they said that's what insurance is for.

I have never used their product but I'm sure they can't protect from every fall so they are right about the insurance. I only use a case for to make it easier/more comfortable to hold the phone and not for protection. If I drop my phone I expect it to break and I would be surprised if it didn't.

I am using the phone naked more and more now but luckily I have only dropped one phone ever(knocked it out of my shirt pocket while putting my coat on) and that was my Nokia 925 a few years ago, no case and it didn't break so I was lucky.

I'm sure that if I didn't have insurance my luck would change but I get my insurance free with my private banking account.
 
It's been almost a month and I do believe I'm all set and finally found my perfect case. And after searching all over place and trying new cases every couple of days, of all the places I looked, I found my perfect case being a Staples TPU case.

So I'm not dwindling, I'm done.

Hahaha you're not the only one obsessed with cases! I recently started a thread as well asking if I should buy a unique wooden case from www.carved.com or 100% natural marble case from www.mikolmarmi.com

I honestly still haven't made up my mind. I was at first really into the Apple Leather Case but now I kind of find them boring. There's no special character to it if you know what I mean. I do like the feel of them a lot.

As to what others have said, I also do like the naked feel but I get SOOOO paranoid about dropping it or scratching it. Props to those that keep it naked though, that's really how it should be! It feels much better and much lighter. It reveals the true apple identity.

Anyways, i'll show you the two cases I am contemplating over. Maybe you'll like them as well :)

Same. I've finally gone back to my Navy Zoogue and I love it. So simple yet durable. I might buy another one if they have another sale. But I think Zoogue is my go to case now. Still have apple leather and CS grip as backups.

I've tried a few cases on my iphone 5s, and have to agree about the Zoogue. I can't believe the price either !
5 zoogues or 1 apple case ? I know where my money will be going in future.
