I am now using the case optimized version with a bumper. The Poetic bumper I was using had some fit issues with it because it wraps around the back a little. I just got a Monoprice bumper and the fit is fine.
Got a tip for us?

Mine is careless. Just the matte back BSE skin and a spigen crystal screen protector, which I must say I'm not very happy with.
I'm resisting fitting the BSE front protector as I'm not sure I'm too keen on the feel. I really want something like the spigen but with full front coverage.
I agree. Had it like this for a while then started seeing threads popping up with people cracking their screens and thought I'd better get a case even though I haven't used one with the past iPhones. But nothing can beat the naked phone (with a little grip from BSE or any similar product). It's just enough protection from scratches like most of the really slim cases provide. IMO very few slim cases provide drop protection, would need to go the bulky route for drop protection.
Is anyone using a case with their full body non-optimized BSE skins?
I know someone mentioned using an incipio NGP fine on their plus but I'm using an incipio Dualpro and it keeps peeling at the corners.
It's really annoying and I don't want to take off my screen protector but the case is really nice
Please help

I have never used a front screen protector but have always have a full protector on the back. After using the Shinomi Full body protection, back only, for one week it started yellowing at the plastic antenna borders. I peeled it off and send it back.
When I pre-ordered my phone, I had found this on eBay and ordered it just because it was so cheap and let me tell you this back is fantastic.
I also ordered others summer black some had a textured feel but I did not like any of them - just the one that I provided a link for above.

4.7" 0.3mm Thin Transparent Crystal Clear Hard Plastic Case Cover for iPhone 6
I highly recommend this product. I've been using it for a couple of weeks now I don't see any scratching yet and the feel is very secure in my hand although the phone looks naked.
...doesn't the clear case get scuffed up though? I am tempted to order this if I can find it on the UK eBay site.
After two weeks of use, the scuffing is minimal. I expected it to be worse actually. I have ordered two more cases because at that price when the scuffing does become noticeable, I will simply put a new case on it.
This case has the exact feel that I want. The feel that was provided by a skin. The skin that I ordered and that I had used (that brand) for several years on my I devices had a problem with yellowing at the iPhone 6 plastic antenna bands. I'm afraid all skins will have problems with yellowing now.
I fully expect to use this plastic case for a couple of months before I have to replace it. At this price, I've got what I need.
For people who are using the full screen protector (not the case optimized one) without the full body and with a case, what cases are you using?
I really like the matte full body backing but really hate the tacky rubbery feel of the glossy front. I am wondering about treating it with something like RainX or the like to make it more slippery feeling. Anyone ever tried that and have a recommendation or experience to share on it?
I have a matte front protector coming but hate to lose the clarity of the gloss.

My matte rear protector doesn't have a tacky feeling. It feels just like matte screen protectors like the Power Support Anti-Glare. Although, my front protector (glossy) isn't that bad. It's slightly tacky sometimes but most of the time I don't even notice it.
No, the matte back is nice and smooth, not tackiness at all. Feels really good actually. Front is another story though.
i had the matte on the front and back. just removed the matte on the front and replaced it with the glossy, which is curing now. loved the fact that the matte didn't get fingerprints easily and had a nice feel to it, but the screen is quite distorted with the matte. not terrible but definitely obvious. i'll see how i feel about the glossy in a couple of weeks time but so far it's really nice to have the clarity back.
I had BSE matte full body on my 6 plus. It was a tricky wet install and I had to let it dry for an hour before I could get the edges to stick. Even then, I had to cradle and hold the edges down for another hour before it stopped coming up. I let it dry for almost 48 hours and didn't use my phone.
It felt great in hand, the fit was fantastic.
After one week on a day of particularly heavy use at a boring conference, the lower edges started peeling up. I tried pressing it down several times but it seemed to have lost its adhesive properties and would just start peeling up so I removed it the whole thing.

Are a lot of bubbles normal about an hour after installation? This is my first wet install and I feel like I should've reinstalled it to get rid of some.
Front or back?
For my back install I had zero bubbles directly after installing. They squeegee out very easily.
For the front I had I couple very small ones. Again most squeegeed out while still wet.
Front. It's been about 9 hours. Some have disappeared already, so I have hope. I can see there's some dust under the film, but they don't have bubbles around them so we'll see.
As earlier posters mentioned, smaller bubbles will clear out in about a night or 24h, preferably the phone shouldnt be used for at least 12h after putting it on. Its the same with Copter-films as well!
Thanks, I didn't expect it to, but it's been 2 days and all of the bubbles have cleared. I got a little dust around my home button, but I can live with it. Very happy with the result.
Will be posting pictures soon.
