If you get a thin enough case it won't add any substantial bulk. I got the Spigen Ultra Hybrid and it's pretty slim. There are thinner cases by Spigen and other brands too.

I ordered the neo hybrid and found it bulky, I could use my phone with one hand but with that case I can't. I need the shumiri whatever that brand is to come out, otherwise I'm not gonna use a case
 
Wasn't going to use one for my 6+, but my conscious kept telling me I need to get one. I just pulled the trigger and ordered a Apple leather in black.
 
I hadn't planned on using a case, but after a couple days of use I realized that I absolutely needed a case so I ordered the Kavaj Dallas leather for around $25, after 15% discount.

I am currently using a Kavaj case on my iPad Air, and it doesn't add a lot of bulk to that device so that experience weighed heavily in my choice.
 
Getting the UAG Maverick for my iPhone 6 Plus

This is my first iPhone, and I've been waiting for many years for the display to get larger. Right now I have the Samsung Galaxy S3 (which I like) and am using the UAG case for it. I like the way it feels in hand, it is easy to get on and off, and it does a great job of protecting my phone.

For my new phone, I ordered the UAG Maverick (clear) and am looking forward to it arriving. I also ordered the BoxWave Almost Nothing Apple iPhone 6 Plus Case - Slim Hybrid Hard Clear Apple iPhone 6 Plus Case with TPU Bumper Rim. With the coupon I found it came to $3.00, including shipping. I've used Boxwave in the past (for my Treo 650) and it was well made, but it's not shipping until 9/30.

While waiting, since I have not yet gotten the shipping notification on my UAG case, I ordered the iPhone 6 Plus Case, Spigen® [SOFT-FLEX] iPhone 6 Plus (5.5) Case Slim. With expedited shipping, it will be $14.99 and will be here by week's end. I liked the fact that it is minimal and lets the phone shine through. Who knows? I might end up really liking it and switching off both of them. Since I'm a bit paranoid about my phones, I won't be using my new phone until the case arrives, but I can't wait!

Now, the next big thing is to learn how to use the phone when it arrives!;)

While I love a naked iPhone... I had to settle for gold when I wanted space gray (I know first world problems... I got the last plus so I took it). I found an insignia soft shell case at best buy for $15 I decided it would hold me over until I figured out what I really wanted. I really like it (plus it's purple, always a win with me)

i bought the insignia soft shell in clear and i love it!! i'm so glad theres no obnoxious brand label on the case lol. plus it doesn't add bulk at all
 
What case did you get for your iphone 6 +?

If I'd have gotten gray or silver I would love the clear case but I really want to hid the gold LOL!!

I should add that it has added grip on the sides and I was able to txt one handed because of that
 
I'm waiting on this one:

http://www.amazon.com/Noreve-Tradition-Premium-Leather-Protective/dp/B009RNTGJC/ref=sr_1_13?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1411321809&sr=1-13

There are none for the 6 or 6+ on Amazon, I ordered directly from Noreve. Lots of pretty colors. Have no idea when it's coming, I guess they take their weekends seriously in France.

I prefer a minimalist leather flip case. I've had a similar one (SGP) on my current phone for over 3 years, and I love it.

In the meantime, I ordered 3 more cheap (as in all 3 for $15) but none of them have arrived. So, I guess I will be using a quilted makeup case until something gets here. I refuse to buy another one.

i bought 2 cases. first being the Tech Armor Active case. which i like the look of but it didn't fit the front screen glass well and was sharp to the touch. Sent it back. 2nd was the otterbox commuter. I like this case a lot. the hard shell fit isn't 100% perfect, but its good enough

Haha wow. we're like twins. Don't use a phone without a case either. will wait until case comes in. Seeing as though, my iPhone is unexpectedly coming earlier I just ordered the leather case from Apple. I'm also coming from a S4 and this will be my first permanent iPhone. had a 4 s for about 3 months and then later switched to a galaxy s3 after changing carriers haha.
 
Apple black leather on a silver phone here.

To those that got the silicone - is it a hard/smooth silicone or the soft/ridiculously grippy one?

Very nice case at that price, thanks hadn't heard of it before :)

Mine case is hard and smooth, just enough flex to get the phone in very nicely.
 
Not much info on this thread. Just wondering if anyone has any good recommendations?
