I have found a few iPhone 6 cases I really like for good prices, but will the approximately.2mm size difference make these cases unusable?

I would really like to have a case home and ready to go when I get the new phone so it is protected immediately, but if the size change is too much the only cases that will be available will be the more expensive version (speaking from past experience)

Thoughts?

I'm assuming that I should be just fine to buy a screen protector that is designed for the 6 because the front will not change??
 
There are rumours that the 6s won't have a protruding rear camera. If that turns out to be true then it could make a difference.

How? Isn't there always a cutout for the camera? Unless you are inferring that the back will be bigger and move out to the camera.

Anyway, Spigen already has 6S/6S Plus cases for sale on Amazon. Interestingly, most are listed as separate cases for the S, assuming the size is different, except for one case. The Neo Hybrid lists as fitting both. Not sure what this means. They must have the measurements. Some ship on Sep 8/9

Thanks for the replies, I decided to take a risk and picked up a magpul field case for the 6, it's seems to be a pretty forgiving case.

I also picked up one of the Spigen Neo Hybrid 6S cases since I was able to get it for $8.50... Hopefully it fits well!

Nice, I got a Spigen Rugged Armor case from Amazon for $5.99 with promo ready to ship tomorrow. Did you use SlickDeals? Lol
