Hello,
I recently smashed my iPhone 6S+ (fell straight on its face from roughly 2-3 ft off a table
I was using the RhinoShield Playproof case
It does have almost identical raised edges as the Spigen (forgot the name but is one of their most protective cases) that my brother has and he also broke his phone same thing dropped flat down face first
When I had my iPhone 4S/5 the edges of the case were so tall i could intentionally drop the phone face down and it wouldnt even scratch the screen a little but it seems like the force touch (esp the function where you can switch apps by touching the side of the screen) is limiting the coverage of the raised edges to allow access to the sides of the phone
I only have one more $29 screen repair for my 6s+ under AppleCare (Expires in August) but intend on keeping the phone from August until at least January.
I have read thread after thread on Reddit and on here and the general consensus is that people are looking for slim cases rather than protective one.
I just want a case that has GIGANTIC raised edges that actually fit close to the screen so that IF i drop the phone I wont need a glass screen protector (should cover 99% of falls unless somehow it falls on an angle)
Spending $40 on a tempered glass protector (which is not guaranteed to work with the aforementioned cases) and another $30-50 on a solid case puts the cost at nearly $100
Ideally i would like to find just a case but if there is a tempered glass + TALL HIGH raised edges combo I would get the combo if it is worth it.
I dont want to just fix the phone and drop it again, i want to replace the battery, fix the screen, and just stick with a case/tempered glass until it is time to replace the phone
I have spent easily over an hour and a half searching all over and the net for a case and it seems like i am out of luck unless someone can help me (also PSA i do NOT want a LifeProof or water resistant case as they are so bulky even with my Flygrip it makes the 6S+ hard to use)
Please any and all help is appreciated as my phone is basically useless (cracks cover the keyboard and middle of the screen)
