Yeah certainly can't afford Apple flagship devices at launch so will be generation behind at least . I won't go 5s unless the 6 is stupidly priced!
Got a tip for us?

Sorry ppl, back on topic.. I just bought my 6th case and this is set to tide me over until next year at least! It will hopefully keep me interested in my phone a bit longer!
I have 3 cases already for my 6, but one of them I don't really like so I'll just keep in a drawer for later. Let's see how many more I'll have 
I love buying cases! I don't even remember how many I'd bought for my 4 (I had a whole Word document with lists and opinions), but I already have 6 for my 6:
-Spigen Air Cusion (looks really nice on the phone, but is super slippery,...didn't keep it on my phone for too long, bought it to have something when I first got my phone)
-Insignia clear (very nice, but turned yellow after a few weeks)
-Insignia aqua+red (also very nice)
-Carved Padauk traveler case (love this!)
-Rinke Max (too bulky and slippery for my liking, but otherwise a very nice case that would offer a lot of protection)
-ZooGue Social in red (ribbed sides are great, nice fit, buttons a little hard to press but slim and sleek)
Looking to get more ZooGue cases, and still holding out hope that they'll make a Speck Pixelskin HD!

I was a big fan of Spigen back when I had my 5S but looks like the reviews for the Neo Hybrid on Amazon are mixed. I love the look of it, but I heard it affects the reception. True?
Here's the incipio DualPro!
Needed a good bumper for my iPhone 6 Plus.
Looks good! How does it feel?
I have a case buying issue too. I bought a stupidly large Tech 21 case when I got my phone, simply as a hold over. Since then, my everyday case is my Diztronic. A few days ago I bought a Mcdodo when it was on sale and the two pack of thin Anker clear/smoke cases. I love my Diztronic but I want something thinner.
Right now I have 6 cases for my 5s and a Magpul field case in the mail. It's a sickness!

I still have some 5S cases I need to get rid of too.. I'll probably sell them so I can make room for my 6 cases.
Do you mind doing a quick comparison between the Mcdodo and Anker when you get them?
In another thread I saw this one:
http://www.nillkin.com/english/proshow.asp?mid=2&sid=0&tid=0&cid=1&scid=13&id=4512&page=2
It looks almost the same as McDodo, but has textured sides for "added grip".
To me, it looks like most of these thin cases are pretty much the same with the variation being any branding, the cut out of the speakers, dust covers, or other minor things. I have a cheap one from ebay (~0.80) and it looks almost the same as these 2. I'm mostly interested in the dust cover and the added grip.

I just wrote a review of the Anker cases in the forum. Take a look. So far, I really like them.

im by no means a professional reviewer, i actually suck at it. i hope my words can kind of help you understand what the case is like and how it should compare with other cases.
once the mcdodo comes, ill review it too. but something tells me its going to be alot thicker than what i want. and that nillkin looks about exactly the same as the Anker.
Got the Mcdodo and did a small review. I love it so far. Better than the Anker!

Thanks for the review and the pictures!
I got a question about the grippiness and the sensitivity of the buttons. I'll ask that in your review link so others how's looking for these cases can find this info too.
