looks great! does it add bulk?

not sure to whom this question refers, but if you are asking about the Tones, then yes, it does add bulk. it is very sturdy, but the sides are quite a bit thicker than on the Tones for the 5/5S.
i don't have other cases to compare to. based on pictures, it looks a bit thinner than the Spiegen Neo Hybrid.
 
I have been using the Tones for a couple of weeks. It offers good protection and it is relatively slim. However, I have 3 problems with it.

The buttons don't work well at all. They are very skinny and rigid.

The headphone protector is too large to push into the jack without a lot of force.

There is a small amount of play in one side. Not much, but I don't like for there to be any movement when I squeeze the case.

I am going to be trying some other cases.
 
i contacted Switcheasy about the headphone plug and they have an updated version coming from the factory. that is why the Tones have been on backorder for the past week or so. i opted to return mine, but they offered to send out a replacement as soon as they get the revised version instead.

Sorry, yes, it was referring to your pics. Thanks for the feedback.
 
Got the NUMBERS case toady for my 6 in frost white. I much prefer it over the Incipio NGP. It's a little slimmer, the camera cutout isn't as big, it has integrated port covers and individuals holes for the speaker. There is less of a lip on the front and the case does not curve over to the top of the glass, so those of you using an edge to edge wet protector will not have to worry about bubbles or lifting.

Excuse the bad photos. I used my iPad.

That actually looks quite nice. I may order that one.
 
I agree with you. The Switcheasy cases I bought for my 3gs and 4s are strong and they come with 2 screen protectors each. I've dropped my phones many times and my phones have never cracked. I feel Switcheasy now is putting more emphasis on how the case looks rather than on the quality of the materials.

The Capsule Rebel were my favorite cases. I don't know why they stopped making it from iPhone 5 on.

I was really curious as to what the capsule rebel was so i googled it. WOW, UGLIEST CASES IVE EVER SEEN! Why do so many people like them so much?

They do seem ugly now, but at the time they were some of the best made cases around, along with some of the most protective for it's size, and came with a massive amount of extras

Until they wore out, which didn't take long sometimes
 
well, the Switcheasy Tones arrived today. still getting a feel for it so these are just first impressions. it is thinner than i expected, which is good since my expectations were low based on the posts above. it is a good, snug fit. buttons are a little hard to press, but may get better over time. it is a very solid case. the TPU on the sides does not sag or pull away at all and it is grippy. the lighter gray is solid plastic. decent lip on the top, mute switch easy to get to. i would classify this a slim, tough case.
the only issue is that the headphone plug doesn't fit very well. it is too tight. actually, i can't even force it flush. the lightening plug fits perfectly. i'm sure i could trim it to size with an exacto knife easily enough. i will let Switcheasy know about the fit regardless.
like i said, still getting a feel for it.
on to pictures....

You said the lip on the case was decent but from your photos and some other photos I've seen the lip looks very small. Would you recommend getting a screen protector for the iPhone?

Anyone know when the 6 Plus cases are coming?

They've announced one case so far for the 6+

Don't buy Airmask

DON'T BUY AIRMASK. I purchased 2 out these from Taiwan and I hope this company will give me a refund and pay for the shipping cost. First off, don't let it's advertisement fool you. It said it's tough. Tough on where? The screen scratches so easily, I've already used up the 2 that I bought on the same day I received it, not to mention I stupidly believed its advertisement and removed my glass protector. Secondly, both screens comes with small scratches on it already. I used to use glass protectors since Iphone 5. When I saw it said it's tough with 3H hardness. I was a bit weary but bought it anyway. But it also said it's resistent to keys and coins. That's total BS. Don't buy it or you will regret it.

Iphone 6 plus
