Are you going to use a case?

I'm ordering the same after I read some reviews about those protectors. Thank you.
With that I'm gonna use the Apple leather case.
I'm with you on that one. I love my Caudabe Veil for that reason. The logo is not printed on but embossed in the case so that it's basically transparent. Plus it's tastefully set near the bottom so it's not very visible. Hate those gaudy logos on a lot of cases. I'm not sure what those companies are thinking. Well no, I take that back. I do know what they're thinking and they're clearly not thinking from the perspective of the consumer!
Wouldn't it be groovy if they made an ipad style cover that concertined and has a magnet to hold the front on.
Different as in not good? I don't want bulk but just want to protect against the occasional drop
Same thing and it will be in an Otterbox Defender just like my iPad and my previous iPhone 4
I wouldn't say not good but to the point that it's so thin i'd rather not put anything on the phone. It feels thinner than a piece of paper. For setting it on a table, desk, etc. you would be ok protecting it from scratches. A drop with the airskin would more than likely still dent the phone even if it falls on a "covered" area.

I am using a case...have had some bad drops with my old iPhone but the case was the only thing that cracked.
Also, isn't the camera lens protrusion (which I gather is somewhere between 0.6 and 0.7mm deep) going to overhang the case by 0.2-0.3mm? :-/
Yeah that is another thing to consider. I just wanted to see how this airskin would work. I am more than likely returning it. I used the other case(thin fit) on my iphone 5 and loved it so I ordered that too for the 6, and likely sticking to that. It a little thicker but feels way more solid. The camera cutout is also raised a little so hoping it it just enough to be flush with the phones camera.
I was actually just going to post a question about the spigen air thin so thanks for posting your quick review. I was thinking the same thing - that it probably wouldn't last cause of how thin it is. I ended up getting a case-mate barely there in clear.
Just received my Spigen Slim Armor from Amazon. It looks a lot better than I thought it would for $20. The materials feel the same as cases that I have paid double that amount for.
My plan is usually to just use the case when I have a higher risk of dropping it - like going running, hiking, biking, etc. Pretty much the same thing I have done with all my iPhones...still no shattered screens 5 years later.

I just got the Ringke SLIM case. It's so slim that I actually thought they sent me an empty envelope for a moment because I couldn't feel anything at all! LOL. But no, it was in there. Just super slim. Still has top and bottom protection. And a really good price (between $6.99 and $7.99) I got the champagne gold looking color. Going back for the Tiffany Blue. And the white. Maybe the pink. LOL!
