Shumuri Slim Case - iPhone 6

Bswartz95 said:
Welp. My Shumuri lasted all of a week. I was taking it off, very carefully, to clean the phone and the plastic around the headphone cutout tore. I'm going back to the Caudabe Veil, I guess. Wasted money on the Shumuri. If you get it, do not plan to take it off unless you're a big gambler. I don't care how careful you think you are, it's fragile on the bottom cutouts. Probably why so many other cases leave the bottom open.

Sorry this happened. I was REALLY interested in this case for the iP6+, and I've been checking up on this thread and their website too. Now I will have to look elsewhere. Darn it! So, you would recommend Caudabe Veil?

Any vendors taking orders to deliver these soon?

I've found plenty of knock off Caudabe and Spigen Air Skins on eBay and Amazon, but none like the SHUMURI.

We're all waiting for an eBay or Amazon seller to start offering the SHUMURI style case.
 
Transparent Iphone 6 case

TPU case which looks similar to Shimuri case, the quality is very good for the price $2 ;)

Got the case today, and tbh this case is never worth £20 ($32) including postage.

It looks good on the phone but I've already managed to snap the plastic surrounding the headphone jack somehow.

For anyone else who still isn't sure, i would recommend waiting a week or 2, then id imagine a lot more case's like the Shumuri will be appearing on Ebay/Amazon for around £3!

Bottom line. Extremely overpriced! But then i should of knew that when i bought it.

I'm with Mikey, Shumuri should get their money for being first to be found, but hopefully others will follow at a fraction of the price. It is hard to find Full coverage in this form factor for under $30 so far.

Thanks!

Need an opinion. Which one would you say is closest to the rear colour of Space Grey?

I'm thinking the "SMOKE GREY MATTE/FROST" version?

Probably yes.

I have the black for my white iPhone. I like it but it is, as you would expect, significantly darker than the grey Shumuri. I also have the clear frost version.

For photos of the two I have, take a look at post #284 in this thread. :)

Yes, the Caudabe Veil is nice quality. They have excellent customer service too! I had a scratch on my original case, and they shipped another one right out to me. Very happy.

And you got it from where?

Also, how is the grip on that? Is it slippery?

I got it from aliexpress.com. They are all from china so the shipping generally takes15+ days even though they provide free shipping on almost all the goods. You can check out cases there, very cheap.

The grip is good , not very slippery.

I've been having problems with Caudabe Veil that I talk about in the Veil thread. Hardly the great support I had read about when they expect me to pay return shipping and wait 2 weeks for an assessment on a manufacturing defect.

Plus, you can get the exact same case for a fraction of the cost on Amazon.

Ditto. I have nothing but good things to say about Caudabe's customer service. Top notch. I got the Shimuri as well and like some others here, it snapped at the bottom near the headphone jack. I like the full coverage, but I'm back to the Caudabe for now.
 
I can say the Shelfone clear version is very nice for the price! £2.99 from Amazon and its a nice finish, still allows edge to edge swiping and offers scratch protection and a bit more grip, obviously it wouldn't offer much protection from a drop but I'm pleased with mine. Just ordered the same in blue whilst they are being sold cheap.

Here's my silver and white iPhone 6 with a blue Shelfone if you're interested.

Still never heard back from Shumuri about my case arriving cracked. Not surprised given how small the company is. Hell, the enveloped had my address hand-written on it. This will just be a loss, I'll never order from them again. I'll just stick with bigger, well-known companies from now on.
