Grandmas think that it looks good because they're preserving the cushions from getting dirty but everyone else just rolls their eyes because all they see is an aging couch that is eventually going to be replaced anyway.
I don't think it's quite the same but that's funny and gives me some very vivid flashbacks. LOL!
Yeah. I learned that last night. I'll deal with it as I have backup case and like to change. That one is the clear Spirgen and fits doc.bummer.I have this case too bad it doesn't fit the apple dock
It's pretty terrific, got the same case for my wife's 6S in RG (took these for a different thread, figured I'd toss 'em in here too):
I seriously thought about the Air Skin (vs. the Ultra Hybrid I bought) for my 6S+, knowing it was already pretty _stocky_, and that a more minimal case might work out better. I decided on a little better protection with a little more bulk/weight, but I'm really interested to hear your opinion on this once you get it. I may still pick one up
Sorry it's a bit late but I didn't get it until yesterday evening. So much for same-day delivery Amazon. At least I didn't pay for the shipping.
It is a very tight fit! I don't think I'll be taking the phone out of this case again without a fight and without risking some damage to the case. Sorry for the bad lightning. I received the case in the evening and the best overhead lightning I had available was in my laundry room.
In this photo you will see the holes in the case don't line up perfectly with their counterparts on the iPhone. The edges just barely overlap.
Here's a comparison with the rather beat up Incipio Highland I'd been using. The Highland (on the left) is actually my husband's. My original one did not survive the drop that shattered the screen on my iPhone 6 Plus. I don't think this case would give any drop protection either. It's mainly to protect the iPhone from scratches in my pocket and purse. I did carry a driver's license and two credit cards in the Highland. It closes with that many cards in it but there's no clasp or magnet to keep the flap on either case closed. I'm willing to put up with stuff like that. I know most people are more demanding about their wallet cases. I just wanted something clear with a cover and I'm thrilled to find out such a case exists. The lighting is poor but the blue color does look nice with the rose gold.
EDIT: Update I have become more adept at removing it. The instructions to do so are accurate.
The case is very clear and shows debris so take about the same care as you would applying a screen protector in terms of avoiding and removing dust and it will look great.
Unfortunately mine did arrive with some minor scuffing. But if you order from the manufacturer you might avoid getting a scuffed case. Amazon really has gotten wild and wooly. I can't complain too much because I got it for about $9 less.

I want that for my sofa! (I have cats and a dog).

I'm also looking for a really thin clear case for the Plus. I just got the Luvitt ultra thin and like it pretty well. It's very thin - back is pretty much even with the camera and there's no lay on the table screen protection. It seems to be well made with decent cutouts and the buttons also work well. It has decent grip which is very important to me. I liked the Shumuri and Caudabe Veil except for I always felt they were just as slippery as the regular phone.
Only minus for me is the branding on the back. It's not really in your face but I'd rather have just a cheap case with no branding.
Please keep sharing your recommendations for the clear cases.

Yeah my Air Jacket is out of alignment with the speaker holes on my 6S+ too. Same with my wife's 6S. Kind of disappointed that they decided to just roll with the 6/6+ case and not update it to be more precise. It isn't THAT far off that I won't use it, but it is annoying. Especially when using the speakerphone--it sounds kind of muffled and not as crisp as it should. Bummer.
Interesting. Did you buy yours from the Power Support website? Seems to be conflicting reports on whether the 6s and 6s Plus fit existing Air Jackets. Hard to believe Power Support would stand behind a product that doesn't fit right, given their commitment to testing, not just going off dimensions. They even made a big deal out of it with a blog post:
powersupportintl.com/blog/why-we-are-waiting-for-the-iphone-6s-and-iphone-6s-plus
That case looks great! Are there any brick and mortar stores I could find this or something very similar?
Can anyone recommend any clear silicone/gel cases for a 6S?
The wife is picking one up next week and has instructed me to get on the hunt for one.

I'm really liking my Luvitt ultra thin case - well made, decent grip and clicky buttons. It is ultra thin though - fits the phone's curves and doesn't really add any bulk. It does not have any lay down screen protection if that's important either way. It's on Amazon with Prime.

Spigen Liquid Crystal is a great slim fitting clear case. Stiff TPU so easy to remove and clean.
Has microscopic dots inside the rear to prevent the water marking these sort of cases have.
My wife has one on her Rose Gold and loves it and I love mine on my Space Grey.

I got it in the mail today and it was damaged! And it is very flimsy (ie. no stiffness to it at all) and it feels like some cheap plastic mold - So DO NOT get this!!!
Bummer.
I really like these Spigen Ultra Hybrids we got. They look good, they have what seems like a great balance between protection and bulk, and the mix of TPU and Polycarb is very clever. Heck, even the prices aren't bad $11-16 depending on size and color.
By the way these photos make the case look bulkier than it actually is. The case is just barely thick enough to protect the camera.
