Really really like this.
But as with most of the cases I like in this thread. They're not available in the UK.
I will try to clear some things up about the 0.8mm and 0.6mm Ultrathin Jacket case by Rock. The 0.8mm version was originally produced before the launch of the iPhone 6. The only colors available for 0.8mm was transparent clear and transparent black. There are also several minor differences in the 0.8mm version: each volume up and down button has it's own mold, the speaker cut out is 1 long cutout, the lip is slightly higher for lay on the table, and there is also a lip from the camera cut out. The differences for 0.6mm are: 1 long button for volume up and down, matte finish for all buttons, volume cut out is several holes which align to the speaker holes, the lip is barely noticeable for lay on the table, and the camera lip is gone. They removed the camera lip so the phone can lay flat on the table and not be unbalanced. It still protects the camera but barely. The 0.6mm version is the revision and Rock has favored this version so the 0.8mm version is discontinued and will be extremely hard to find. Since the production of the 0.6mm it now comes in 3 colors: transparent clear, transparent black, and transparent gold. Because of their attention to detail there could be more possible revisions but for now the 0.6mm is the latest.
Note: this only applies to the iPhone 6 version (not iPhone 6 Plus).

Thanks for the info. I bought this Rock clear case from eBay and the case has the 'ROCK' logo on the bottom-right side of the case/device. However, when I look at the images produced by ROCK, it shows the logo as being on the rear side of the case/device.
Can you tell me if there is a difference between the 0.6mm and 0.8mm logo placement? I'm not sure which one I have as I can't see any mention of the thickness of the case on the packaging and the packaging that came with mine appears to be a packaging for another case (the 'Royce' version').
Would appreciate your help.
Thanks
EDIT: Here's a pic of my case with the logo placement. It's an embossed logo, not printed as it may seem from the pic.

The logo being on the side vs back is for the iPhone 6 Plus version of this case. There is also 2 revision to this case it seems but so far I am not so clear about this version. I will try to figure out all the possible details soon once I find out.Thanks for the info.

So you're saying the 6 Plus version has the logo on the side, whilst the iPhone 6 version the logo is on the back side? Btw, I've added a pic of my case in case you missed it.

Sorry for being unclear. The iPhone 6 Plus has 2 versions. 1 with logo on the side and 1 with logo on the back. Though I am not sure which is the original and which is the revision. The version with logo on the back for the iPhone 6 Plus seems be a little bit thinner and fit better from what I know.
Thanks for clarifying and for the pics. Based on your observations and going by the iPhone 6 versions, it appears I have the 0.8mm version because of the cutouts. The only difference appears to be the logo placement, unless I have a fake which could seem likely as I bought mine off an chinese seller on eBay and my packaging appears to be for another case:

Thanks for sharing, I don't think anyone would make a knock-off for this particular case. I think there may just be slight changes because there are many errors and typos in the original packaging. I will try to post a few pictures later for the different versions of the iPhone 6 Plus Rock case.
edit: added photos
Sorry since I do not have the same color of the 2 difference cases to show. The clear is 0.6mm and the gold one is either (0.8mm or 0.7mm) I do not have the correct information on what the size should be. It appears the 0.6mm version with logo on the back is possibly the new revision as all the cutouts and buttons seem to be more tighten. I'm not an expert so if anyone notice anymore differences please feel free to share.
note: these pictures only apply for iPhone 6 Plus version!

Seems like I've got the 0.8mm or 0.7mm then. Thanks once again for the pics, I've been left in the dark (and confused) for a while wondering which one I had and whether mine was a fake (cos of the logo placement) until I've seen your pics, very helpful.
I prefer the cutouts of the 0.6mm version as it leaves the buttons exposed and doesn't cover the buttons making it kinda 'thick' to press. But I much prefer the logo placement on the side like the 0.8mm :|

The buttons are not exposed in the 0.6mm also, it just has a matte finish on them.
What was yours listed as when you bought it, could it perhaps be the 7mm version or is there not one (I've seen some on eBay)? Does yours protect your camera or it's just flush with it? If it's flush it's probably the 6mm version.Thanks for clarifying and for the pics.

for the 6 Plus, both 0.7mm and 0.6mm are flush. Only difference is the cutouts and buttons and logo.
What are your thoughts on the 0.7mm being sold on eBay? You think one don't exist and they are really 6.0mm?
My thought is the 0.7mm and 0.8mm are probably the same and the 0.6mm does exist. Check my photos it shows both and the differences post #774
I've got my 6 Plus in the white apple silicone case. I've always been a fan of putting a white case on a black phone
Same setup, love it. I opted for the Zagg HD glass shield on the front as well. Favorite phone and setup I have ever had.
Im so confused am thinking of buying this one here, based off the cutouts and the three different colors offered it looks like the 8mm counterpart right or the 6mm version?

The eBay link you post is likely the the version with the logo on the side. I agree there is a lot of confusion because many sellers have misinformation or they simply don't know of the differences because in the package both 0.7mm and 0.6mm looks almost identical. The stock photos don't really help either because they were made off dummy phones before the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus release. The thicker version whether it is 0.8 or 0.7 will become harder to find because they are likely discontinued.
I bought this exact one from that seller and the pictures you see in my previous posts is what I received. The camera sits flush- or just above the camera if you're really being picky. Hope that helps.

It doesn't list what it is in size but looks to be the same 7mm one above I'll need the regular 6 version though. When you say it might sit just above the camera, if you place it on a table can you tell any rubbing going on against the camera when you slide it a bit you should be able to hear it?
I have a clear 4mm TPU case it looks just about flush but I could hear the camera rubbing against a table when I set it down. I'm curious if your version is the same. If you're too scared to move it on its back well that probably answers my question anyway. Lol

Dual Pro Shine 6 Plus
Here are a couple of my Dual Pro Shine for the 6 Plus. I am becoming a huge fan of Incipio. They have warrantied a few cases for me and are always very responsive. The cases are top quality too. I have it sitting next to my NGP so you can see the difference in thickness.
