Space Gray 6 Plus

In order of preference:

-Moshi iGlaze Armour (this is the absolute best fitting, OEM looking'ish case out there). Just got it today but think this might be a keeper. It's a touch heavy, but is a truly nice case.

- Speck CandyShell Grip (White). Really nice looking (reminds me of a stormtrooper), great fit, great grip, not all that bulky. A favorite.

- Apple Leather (Midnight Blue). Great case, love the look and feel, but I feel like I have to baby my phone with it or else it will scuff/rip.

- Apple Silicone Case (white). Love this case although it's lost the smoothness it originally had and is now really grippy, almost slimy? Kind of weird. Good news is that the white has not discolored whatsoever, still looks really great, just feels a bit odd.

- Grafixpressions Ultra-thin form fitting case (smoke). Super, super thin, perfect fitting case, looks great, adds zero bulk and doesn't take away from the form factor or look of the phone at all. This is probably my favorite case, but i just feel like it will protect from scratches, kind of don't want to take the risk of dropping the phone with this as I don't think it will protect it properly.

- Spigen Air Case (gunmetal). nice case, fairly minimal protection, lightweight. Overall still a good case.

- Incipio Feather Shine (white). Honestly another nice looking, feeling case. Lightweight, great fitment, fairly minimal protection.

that's it for now, i've had 5 - 6 other cases that I just disliked and returned them because I'd never use them.

Speck Candyshell Grip white/black

I have sold everything else...but thinking of picking up another defender as my gym case
 
Currently have six (6)...

Magpul - last one bought and current favorite
Apple leather - second one bought and second favorite
Otterbox Defender - first one bought, like it but too big
Seidio Surface - third case bought, it's ok but don't like the cutouts for the buttons
Incipio DualPro - fourth case bought, it's nice but like the Magpul better
Seidio Dilex Pro - fifth case bought, it's a nice case. Very similar to Incipio Dual Pro but has a kickstand and reveal for the Apple logo on the back.

Looking at maybe getting a Speck Candyshell Grip to add to my collection. Baby needs a new pair of shoes...

I don't think you can go wrong with the CS Grip. One handing the 6+ with this case is a breeze. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think my search for the holy grail of cases is over. :D

Haha.. I was inspired by you guys and have switched back to my Candyshell Grip. After not using it for ~2 weeks, it's not as big nor heavy as I remembered. I'm re-loving the case again!
 
Right now, I have 4 cases for my 6..

-CandyShell Grip
-Apple Leather
-2 ZooGue's

Wanting a wallet case next!

Just ordered the Candyshell Grip for my 6+, will get it in a few days. Looking forward to giving it a try based on all the positive comments here. Btw, Amazon has a pretty good sale on the black today, picked it up for $23 and change.

Great price!!

Keep in mind, the back of these will scratch up on the shell. Lighter colors will hide those scratches better. OCD'ers might freak out over that. :)
 
Ya gotta think of the Candyshell Grips as though they're the Millenium Falcon. Been through some battles and wearing it proud.

It's a great case. I did put my defender back on. Can't beat that protection. Also, if anyone is interested it's $35 on Amazon and many stores price match.

Speck Candyshell Grip white/black

I have sold everything else...but thinking of picking up another defender as my gym case

Did you buy another White/black Candyshell Grip? I thought I bought one from you in the marketplace.
 
I had a lot of cases. Sold most of them.


I am thinking of doing that too. I have a Red Apple Silicone, and a Spigen Gunmetal Neo Hybrid that I never use. Also a Frost Zoogue, I will keep the Black, but not a fan of the frost color.

Do they go pretty fast in the Marketplace?

I am switching between the Dark Blue Magpul, and the White/Black Speck Candyshell Grip. Loving both of those cases.

I actually did better through eBay. Most gone in a day or 2. Just wanted to keep 1 or 2 cases but wanted to get some money back.

Now only have the grip and defender.
 
I've gone through cases from Apple, Spigen, Ringke, UAG, Otterbox, Magpul, Speck as well as a few no name ones. I've settled on the Speck Candy Shell Grip in white for my gold iPhone 64+. Got rid of the rest.

I have the lifeproof for my iphonme 6 gold 64gig and the mophie. all you need imo for an iphone.
 
I have 4.

Iphone 6 Plus, Gold 128gb

1. I got the Spigen Neo Hybrid Gunmetal before I got my iPhone, had one one my 5s and loved it. Not so much with this case. It makes the phone feel huge. I also don't like how slippery it feels. I will keep it as I paid $12.49 for it, and don't want to deal with Spigen and their customer service, trying to do a return. I will use it around the house.

2. I picked up the Apple Leather in Olive Brown when I got my phone. Love it. After 2 weeks it started peeling on one of the corners. I returned it, they were out of Brown so got the Midnight Blue. I like the looks of it with the Gold Phone, but after a few weeks it started turning Black. I don't mind wear on a leather case, but the Black just made it look dirty. Returned that yesterday and went back to the Olive Brown. Happy again.

3. I wanted a clear case to show off the Gold Phone. While I was at Best Buy getting my Zagg Glass Screen Protector, I found the Insignia clear case. For $15, this is a great case. Nice tight fit, great cut-outs, feels great in your hand, and the price was a nice added bonus. I switch between this and the brown leather.

4. When I was returning my Blue Leather case, I picked up a Apple Red Silicone. I wanted some color and this one fit the bill. Since I just got it yesterday I haven't had a chance to use it, but I am sure I will. Like the color, feel, and how it fits the phone perfectly.

Total spent: $120.

4 is my limit. I can't see me needing anything else. I did get a $2.99 clear case form eBay, and it quickly went in the trash. Terrible fit, super loose, bad cut-outs and just plain cheap looking.


——
I still have my iPhone 6s, and have pretty much come to rely on the Apple Battery Case as it provides enough power to get me through most of my days but I do have a second case for really busy days tucked away in my bag.

If I upgrade iPhones again, I will need to buy all of this stuff again.
