Thinnest iPhone 6 Case?

Spigen makes like a zillion cases. What is the consensus on the best one that is thin and offers decent protection?
Looks awesome!
Is it hard plastic? How do you think it would do protecting it from a drop?
I wish I could go naked, i love the feel of this phone, just too nervous about dropping this baby.
My encase from Mobile Fun came today. It's made from a soft plastic, and it's more slippery than I thought it would be, so I'm not sure if I will keep it. There's also a seam running down the middle which you can't see unless you look closely, but you can feel.
The smoky black, though, looks great with the space gray. I also like the size of the lip--just enough to provide a bit of protection, but still comfortable for swiping.
Also, I thought it was funny that the packaging called it an "iPhone Air" case.
Guys, "iPhone 5.5" " would have been the safer choice...

It's like a thin plastic. Not really hard at all. It's more like a shell than a case. It's good for setting on the table or sliding it into something but if you drop your phone it's more than likely to dent still. I think of this cover more for people that wanted a naked phone but this adds a little grip without adding any bulk at all
Yeah it still sticks out a little. The case probably gets a little past half way up the camera. To me it feels like it rocks a little less than without a case at all and you have to tap the screen on a certain part and a good amount of force for it to actually move
Shumuri cases look fine in the pictures. Has anyone got their shumuri order in hand? I really want to see them in action
I posted some photos in the thread below.

Thanks so much. Honestly it looks much more classy on their website . Your pictures are taken without the iPhone though, it might make a difference.

Of course it looks different. You honestly thought it'll look like their photos? In reality, ad photos look completely different
I assume you haven't read my previous post in the thread, I still didn't get my iPhone. I'll be getting it sometime today
Edit: Just got my iPhone 6 and uploaded some photos.

I got mine today, it is just what I wanted but doubt it would offer much protection from anything beyond scratches.
EDITED: Never mind. Reviews belong to the new hybrid, the air skin doesn't have add-on buttons. Don't know why Amazon mixes different products reviews...
Anyone who has the Spigen Air skin can confirm that the buttons work?
From what I'm reading in the amazon.co.uk reviews there seems to be a flaw with it... not sure if it's the same.

I have the air skin and buttons work great. Like the case a lot too.

Yes, the air skin covers the rounded edges, just not the bottom.

Having benefited from this forum on plenty of occasions over the years I have decided to join the gang and submit my first post. Thanks to all of you for all the wisdom over the years.
I noticed this case had not been posted yet (to my knowledge) so here's a few pics of mine I picked up earlier.

It looks like the camera still sticks out, correct?
juist looking around at some thin cases.
I just got my Caudabe Veil late last night. Awesome fit. Pretty much the same thing I had for my 5S, so I'm good to go now.
My wife got her Caudabe Veil last night. Looks good. It's too bad they don't have one for the 6 Plus yet. I'm using an Apple leather case now, but I want to switch back to the Veil. Thinner is still better especially for a phone this big.
