What case are you using for the new SE

No, but if/when they do, I'd love to just bring my public transport card, and my bank card, and go to work without my wallet! I rarely need actual cash from Mon-Fri anyway.
Logo windows are the Comic Sans of case design
I don't think they will bring one out for the SE, i have just been comparing my credit card against my incipio feather case and it is almost as wide as the case, so i don't think there would be enough room for a card slot and still make the case strong enough.
I just ordered a bunch of these in various colours.
More bumper than case, I know, but this fits my style.

I have a couple bumpers from my 5s that I like. I like this squared one from Spigen. boy, was it expensive. i'm into skins though and love showing them off.
I dug up most of my old iPhone 5 cases and grabbed a few others. So far the rotation includes:
Belkin Grip Candy Sheer (I have both the teal/grey (looks like Bondi Blue iMacs) and blue/grey (looks like Blueberry iMacs) combos)
Speck PixelSkin HD (black)
Speck CandyShell Grip (yellow/blue)
Incase Pro Snap Case (clear/blue edges)
Zoogue Social Pro (both a red one and a navy one)
Mophie Juicepack Helium (grey)
Apple iPhone 5S Leather Case (black)
I primarily use the blue Belkin one, but I'll probably end up with some more just because there's so many sources of marked down iPhone 5/5S cases and new ones available...it's essentially 3+ years of cases to pick from already.

Unfortunately I've already discarded my old iPhone 5 cases. But I hadn't discovered Lucrin back then either - i doubt the plastic one i used to have would have lasted long enough to see the SE.
This is what is looked like on their website https://www.lucrin.com/iphone-se-sleeve.htm
This is on my desktop:
I'm gonna go for the one with the pull-up strap one soon enough. Seems more practical.

Just got the Spigen Neo Hybrid in pink (matches my "Rose Gold" SE), plus the Spigen Glas.tr glass protector.
I've read plenty of recommendations for other screen protectors, but I figured I'd be happy with most of them.
So far so good!

where did you find the Spigen glass protector from? I haven't been able to find them for a while now.Just got the Spigen Neo Hybrid in pink (matches my "Rose Gold" SE), plus the Spigen Glas.tr glass protector.

I had to get both from an Australian eBay seller (ProGadgets) I live in Australia, so it makes sense for me.
If you're in the US, I'd just get it from the Spigen website. I didn't really have that option, since international shipping was crazy expensive.
I have an od green version of the field case, good case that has survived too many drops with my 5s & now SE.
The grip surface on the back is fantastic, it is similar to the patters and materials used in their rifle magazines.
I purchased a Siegon ultra hybrid case for mine, looks very smart and gives it good protection to the sides and back without making the phone bulky. The back of the case is clear, so you can still see the design of the iPhone. Im not keen of cases that cover the phone almost completely. The iPhone design is thing of beauty, why hide it.
For the screen I purchased Tech Armour Ballistic screen protector.

I have that case, the only thing I don't like are the volume buttons, there a bit hard to find quickly and feeling them with your fingers for the up and down and they don't press down as good as the original round buttons. I have to press mine down a fair bit more than I would like.I purchased a Siegon ultra hybrid case for mine, looks very smart and gives it good protection to the sides and back without making the phone bulky.

However everything else is great on that case.
got an apple leather case, but neither my headphones nor my car input jack will fit the headphone hole, so i've been forced to take it off to listen to music, the main reason i have an iphone. doing so has already caused a nasty scratch near the power button. first time with a case, and the quickest i have ever got my first scratch haha. the scratch was definitely caused by the case as i have completely babied this thing when taking it off
Hi
Yes the volume buttons I guess are a little fiddly with how the case design is. For the price of around £7, the case is a bargain though.
I enjoyed the white Apple Silicone cases for the 6S/6S+ and am disappointed that Apple doesn't have one out for the SE. Anyone know of a third party manufacturer that makes a case for the SE that's very similar to the Apple Silicone cases for 6S/6S+?? Thanks
just in case you're specifically searching for one for the SE, maybe try searching for the 5s.
Hey, curious regarding the field case; is there any play with the device in the case? I am close to pulling the trigger on a field case and I keep seeing random mentions of the 5S / SE not fitting as snug as the iPhone 5 as it's apparently a hair's difference in length..can you speak to this at all?
And anyone that has experience with Magpul, it seems like the reports of it stretching out are rather mixed, too. At least with the field case, specifically. Is this something anyone has dealt with?
