Any suggestions on the BEST clear case brand for iPhone 6s??

I've had a couple for the iPhone 6 that within 4 months of use it has widen up a bit, to the point that the actual case would pop-out of place on the edges.
 
Just note that a lot of clear cases turn yellowish over time (8-10 months). Particularly the rubbery (TPU) clear cases though they do not scratch up like the clear polycarbonate cases. Amazon has crazy good prices on the Tech21 and some Spegin cases right now. They look decent and are gummy / TPU like in texture. So cheap...buy 2 to replace one when it yellows.
 
When it's said the phone has gotten thicker, has the actual placement of the buttons changed or is it purely due to the 3D Touch making the screen thicker?

I'm concerned about buying a case only to find the buttons don't align properly and most of the clear ones don't seem to have large cutouts.

I think Orzly has some good cases you can check them on the website they have a reputation making quality products so fit should not be a problem other brands you can try is Spigen, Casebase, etc. Also Orzly has somekind of discount offer running currently
 
I never liked clear cases cuz they all felt or looked weird on the phone, but after I found the Moshi iGlaze xt Ultra Slim case! I love that case! I love it so much I bought two spares in case they were to stop making them. Lol
 
This is a time sensitive offer posted by forum member Tatyiona in a different thread. It takes place through Amazon's site but you must choose the options in which the case sells AND ships from Spigen. Shipping will be free but it's going to get to you slower than it would via Amazon. http://slickdeals.net/f/8110236-spi...f-from-2-free-shipping-amazon?&src=SiteSearch

Go to that site, choose the Ultra hybrid Air Cushion (Crystal Clear) for your iPhone 6/6s and you can get it for $2.75 if you enter the code specified on Slick Deals. But you MUST select Other Sellers and then select the option that ensures it ships from Spigen.

It's confusing because the default option has it sold by Spigen and fulfilled by Amazon and the code won't work.

This case should fit your 6S fine. It's stretchy where it needs to be. Even if it ends up discoloring in a few months it still will have cost you only $2.75 and it's from a reputable company with overall good reviews.

There's also an option to get this case for the Plus sized iPhones. I just ordered mine for $3.
 
I might get flamed for this, but this cheaper option is worth considering if all you need is a clear case -AliExpress.
I use a seller on there (I can provide the name if anyone is genuinely interested, although it is worth checking for the best deals on there) and I got FIVE x 6 Plus clear silicone cases for $2.70 and they arrived in less than 3 weeks (free shipping). They are a nice fit and finish, but yes they do eventually discolour after 8-12 weeks of daily use. And can you guess what I do next? I throw that 60 cent case in the trash and use a new one! 5 cases will easily outlive a phone for a full year -hey, order 10 if you're clumsy!

I tend to do the same thing--buy cheap and replace often. I like having a new case frequently, and sometimes I interchange them to have a different look depending on my mood.
 
I hate the clear Spigen crystal hybrid cases. I find them weird to hold and I just can't stand TPU now.
 
you could of bought that case for half of that price on Amazon, And they turn yellow after a couple of weeks
I have a couple friends with it and no yellowing, and I had a coupon so it wasn't as expensive as the site. I don't really like to buy cases from Amazon because of the possibility of knockoffs that may be have differently from the original...such as perhaps yellowing.

I'm interested in knowing the seller, cheers.
