My Top Five Cases!! Please Contribute!

5 cases? Why?
Most importantly, a case can never truly be reviewed unless you use it on a phone. That's my opinion.

 

Totally fair. I got some Spigen from Amazon for $11.99. Should hold me over fine until something else comes up. I really want a magpul. So far that case has been a beast for me.

 

I love the Silk one, I hadn't seen it before.. definitely ordering it!

 

I'm not going to order all of them but here are my current 5 favorites.

1. Spigen Air Cushion


2. Verus Card Slot Case


3. i-Blason Halo Series Hybrid Clear Case


4. Spigen Neo Hybrid Case (Will probably get this one)


5. Silk - Ultra Slim Protective Crystal Clear Carrying Case

 

They all make a beautiful phone look ugly.

 

Never understood cases that left the top and bottom exposed.

 

So is the OctoArmor the same as the Spigen Tough Armor? Looks damn near identical, no?

 

So you can use accessories and not hide the phone's details.

 

I understand the phone details, but what accessories can you use that would need the top exposed?

 

Power Support

Power Support Air Jacket is the only one on my list so far:

I've been using an Air Jacket on my 5 since new and it's been great.

 

My phone dock, car charger, and most other's lightning cables aren't long enough to make it through the case into the port. With the bottom cut out it still fits and you have a case.

 

I was asking about the top, not the bottom.

 

Makes the case look uniform and not silly like the apple cases. They look half finished.

 

My favorite bumper so far for the iPhone 6: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...e=as2&tag=kentuc07-20&linkId=5KMIXLE4L325B5PA

It just arrived 10 mins ago, but I'm still waiting for the Fed-Ex guy to deliver my phone so that I can pop it on to give it a true review. It feels really sturdy so far.

Here's the iPhone 6 + version: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...e=as2&tag=kentuc07-20&linkId=B7EJT2OGPIN5YC6O

 

I like this bumper (especially the price)!

 

Here's my review for the iPhone 6 bumper I linked to in my original post. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...e=as2&tag=kentuc07-20&linkId=5KMIXLE4L325B5PA)

After using it for 5 days I highly recommend this bumper. Compared to the bumper I had for my 5S it is very sturdy. The area around the earjack, speaker, and charger seem fortified so it shouldn't give out after a years worth of use. It's also nice that the camera doesn't touch what ever service I have my phone resting flat on since the phone is resting on the lip of the bumper. I'm glad I purchased this bumper and hopefully this review helps you out as well.

Please let me know if you have any questions

Here's the 6 Plus version: (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...e=as2&tag=kentuc07-20&linkId=B7EJT2OGPIN5YC6O)

 

Defender

You may want to reconsider the otter box defender. Buttons are very stiff to press and one person reported the film covering the touch ID left a residue that cannot be removed. I took my defender off after one day.

Consider the Pelican Voyager available at AT&T.

 

Agreed. Although I did not have any issues with the residue complaints that I'm seeing on these forums, the buttons are incredibly stiff and the extra effort to press them takes getting used to. My main issue was that the case was to big for the phone. I went to plug in a pair of headphones and it pushed the phone deep into the case. So deep that I could not plug in the headphones. Not to mention, the Defender felt really bulky. Too bulky for my taste.

The Commuter seems to fit better. I'd like to know what case makers make alternatives to both the Commuter and Defender.

 

Dilemma

So I am scheduled to get my iPhone 6 plus today, problem is there are no cases for it out yet. I have always used the Otterbox defender. Does anyone know of a really good protective case for the iPhone 6 Plus that I can purchase now

 

I use a Sony Lightning port Alarm clock to charge my phone at night and wake me up in the morning. It continues playing the podcast/radio show I went to sleep to so I can continue listening. Much preferred by me. Hence why I prefer open bottomed cases, also for a time I used the lightning adapter which is only usable with open bottom cases.

 

I have the Otterbox Commuter on and it's pretty good. Has good access to the ports and doesn't hinder the button usage. I plan on going naked once I get the care+. Then I'll only use the Otterbox at the gym and when rough housing.

Is there a super rigid case out there than doesn't add significant bulk? I can live with Otterbox thickness but not much more. I am mildly afraid of bending.
