I agree with you guys. I don't understand the concept behind this design. Lack corner protection. And what is the point of that button flap at the bottom anyway? It's not like you are going to unbutton that flap so you can take your phone out from the bottom anyway. Failed design and I predict it is not going to sell well.
Got a tip for us?

I've been holding out for something from Incase, but am unhappy with their iPhone 6 Plus options. For the time being, I just received this case via eBay for $3.98. It adds almost no bulk and has no branding on it, which are my two requests. It feels like you would expect shiny plastic to feel. It was fairly tight to get my phone in, and I haven't tried taking it out yet/plan to do that very slowly when the time comes. The port covers fit well, though the headphone jack was kind of difficult to get in. The speaker holes are all lined up perfectly, and the buttons are all as easy to press as they are with no case. Very minimal lip on the front; I may not lay the phone face down. I do expect the clear back to scratch easily. I'd link to the seller, but the particular listing ends in three hours. I imagine it will be posted again, and the eBay seller is "discounts-tablets." Sorry for the imperfect photos.

Thanks bro! Really appreciate it.
What if I were to pick the silicone one, should I go with the dark grey or white color? I don't really like any of the other colors and I'm leaning towards an all white device. What do you think?
Couldn't disagree more. When I had my 5s, I had the white/silver with the black leather. Looked great IMO
Here is the current listing. I also ended up buying the light blue, purple, orange, and red cases. Also have the pink version on a black iPhone 6. Let me know if you would like to see how those colors look, and I can try to get pictures for you.
Yeah that'd be great! I have the black one too so I'm curious to see which color suits the black one best.
I have been using the Rokform universal mount on the back of my Lumia 1520 for the past year and absolutely loved it. Locks into my car during my commute, works on my bike mount and the added magnetic mount is used in my wife's car as well as anywhere I am at in th garage. I was even able to place the phone under my Jeep while I was working on it to listen to music as well as watch YouTube videos showing me how to actulally fix what I was trying to fix.
I simply placed their mount directly to the ProClip USA mount I already had for my vehicles (have been using one for 10 years!!). Simply removed their dedicated phone mount and stuck the Rokform RMS to the face of the ProClip USA car mount.
Here it is in my car...no iPhone 6+ yet, but the case for that showed up yesterday.

Here are the other colors. Sorry that these are mostly with my white 6 Plus, but I do have one photo with my mom's black 6. The orange actually arrived with scratches all over the back, which is a bummer since I wanted to use that case most. That's the only one out of 6 cases that arrived scratched, but just a heads up.

You got the clear case for your 6+?
I just received my aluminum 6+ case from rokform but they sent me the wrong color. I love it though. I also got the belt clip attachment and some extra attachments to stick in my car and other places. Love this case.
Yep...went with the clear polycarbonate. Half the price, but really wanted to see how the case size interacted with the phone before I decide whether or not to go with an aluminum one.
Yeah I love my aluminum so far. Very tight fit. Got the belt clip on it now and when I get to work I will be sticking it to something metal. Great case. I got one of the universal mounts coming too. I think I might put that on my iPad case so I can stick that to things too.
Noticed the mic hole looks like it's covered in the caseology's pix on their website for the bumper cases (can't tell from yours). This is also mentioned in a few complaints on Amazon. You still using this case? Had any issues with people hearing you when talking on the phone?
I can't find it on ebay or amazon. Any chance you have a link? Also how difficult is it to take your phone out of the case? I switch quite often so I need something relatively easy. Thanks!
I had tech21 Impact Check case for the six plus, but it just made the device too big. Very grippy and probably a good option for those that are prone to dropping their phone.
I have also had Power Support Air Jacket force (from apple store), but I didn't like the protruding lip on the front. It was also incredibly difficult to take on and off. Ended up breaking it. Apple still accepted the return.
I am currently waiting on Power Support's Air Jacket, but this time ordered from their website as I don't think it has as tall of a lip around the screen.
If there is a skin out there that can increase the grip I may just go that route, as the 6+ is so big that almost any case makes it harder to hold one handed.
