Am I the only obsessed with buying cases?

I agree!

I just purchased another Tech21 Evo Mesh case for my 6 Plus, this time in blue. The blue, on Apple's website, shows real well with the white.

I now have the clear/white, which rocks. I guess you can't have too many cases. :D

I've been wanting to try the Tech21 cases.. guess I'll look into those. I should be getting the leather case tomorrow. It's starting again. (the obsession) :p

I have the Apple Leather case as well. Fits real well.

I was thinking of picking up a Magpul as well or quit cold turkey. Haha
 
I currently have an Incipio DualPro case for my iPhone 6. Mind you, I am kind of interested in a thinner case, since this case makes nearly doubles the thickness of the iPhone 6 (though I really do like the protection offered, though).

I know the feeling! I have the Speck Candyshell Grip now.. love it, but it's a little thick. I should hopefully be getting the leather case today.

How is the leather case with the bottom exposed? Have you noticed any dust in your ports at all?

Because it's open, you have to be a bit more cautious. I haven't used it in awhile, because I prefer having protection on the bottom of the phone. I'm guessing dust could be an issue with any case that has openings. I haven't had dust issues myself.

Ahhh. False alarm and I'm not getting it today but sometime next week. I just wish they would've had more coverage at the bottom but I'll give it a try.
 
I jumpy back and forth between a naked iPhone 6 and an Apple Leather Case.

Really, Apple's case is the first one I've ever liked. I usually go without one.
 
Well you're not alone that's for sure OP!

I started out with one it was a spigen case then wanted to show a bit if colour off on my 5c so went frosted (cheap case) then wanted clear so went tough mate naked case. I have since discovered snugg cases which started out with my grey one for work only. Then saw a new design for my phone which was only previously on the 5s I think. I'll switch back and forth because both snugg cases hold my work card and can be scanned in door card sensors through the case! Plus both protect the phone well!

Love the wallet case! How do you think they are in terms of protection?

Looking at this one in ice frost. Is the camera cutout raised higher than the lens? Thanks!
Click to expand...

If you mean that the lens doesn't contact the desktop, yes. The back of the case is sufficiently thick. The cutout does reveal a third of the thickness of the iPhone 6 plus antenna line, both top and bottom of the cutout. But in the frost, the antenna lines are visible to begin with so it's not a bother to me (my antenna lines are against space gray phone back).

Buttons on these cases are not as clickey as Diztronic or Magpul. It takes a press. I've not used the Zoogue button enough to see if the button breaks in.

Thanks for the great feedback! :)

I'm also thinking about picking up a Magpul as well. Is that case relatively slim?

Only if the relative is compared to thicker cases. Magpul for its level of protection is less thick than others, but it will never be compared to a thin case. There's a couple Magpul threads here, one of which shows some pics that convey some physical details. It has a pliability of TPU but in some other formula that has a grippy hardness along with some physical bands to aid in grip; from a maker of high quality and precision-made firearms and related accessories.
 
What do you guys think of the Tech 21 cases? A guy at work yesterday told me that they're probably one of the best cases out for the 6 & 6+ right now.

The evo mesh at the apple store is a nice case for both phones. Can't verify their drop protection though.

I've always been a fan of Tech21. They make quality cases. Drop protection is suppose to be good because of the D30 and FlexShock material they use in their cases. I have the Evo Mesh on my 6+. They run around $35. Not the cheapest, but not the most expensive. There are other quality cases at a more friendly price point.

I like the evo mesh as well. Don't understand the 2 openings on the back for the 6 plus.
 
I just bought the ZooGue Social Pro. You can't go wrong for $10.48 shipped.

I'm now debating about picking up the Magpul field case. :D

I have a brand new one in box for sale if you are interested? I have it over in the market place forum
 
Social Pro is one of the grippiest, because 1.) a good grade of TPU and 2.) the molded ribs on the sides of the case. Waaaay less likely to drop the phone when using a Social Pro.

Awesome!

Your excellent feedback helped with the decision to purchase this one. Thanks again!
