What case will be your brand new item for iphone 6?

I don't get the Apple-logo-cutouts on some of these. Is it really so important to so many people to show the world that it's an iPhone they are carrying around?

Would prefer the Spigen Neo Hybrid Metal over the plastic one, but prolly going with the latter seeing as the Metal only seems to be available with the cutout.

it looks like this is more of a bumper case, no clear back (no back at all), based on this video posted by another user. i has been hoping it was a clear case too! the little logo tab made me think that, but based on this video, it isn't :( please let me know when yours comes if i am wrong though!!

It's a clear polycarbonate frame. The bumper colors are optional, they offer it in total clear, clear with the color bumpers (what I got) or color bumpers with a solid back, solid back with the logo cutout, or clear with bumpers and logo cutout.
 
Has anyone gotten both the Spigen Soft Flex and Neo Hybrid?

I have the Neo Hybrid, looks great, but I think a TPU frame would hold up better than plastic. The shell is thinner than my iPhone 5 Incipio Frequency case. I'd prefer it be a little thicker, think it would absorb shock better if it was.

Wondering if the Spigen Soft Flex shell is thicker than the Neo Hybrid.

I ordered a Vaja Grip LP for a 6+ in gray and black for a space gray phone.

I have both today. Can't tell the difference from one to the other without looking for a label. They've held up equally well. Feather on Incipio is 2weeks out on their site BTW.

PS Also have Elago and same story--same condition after a couple of years.

This is another big mistake IMHO: http://www.seidioonline.com/apple-iphone-6-s/9383.htm Shocked they missed the boat on launch (actually, not really, I think they have a tendency to miss new phone launches). Cases are probably one of the first thing everybody buys before or immediately after the phone.

Of course, they got sloppy after IP4 and I stopped using them anyway. Loose fit/creaking.

If you want Incipio sooner you can check out Verizon's online store... I ordered two DualPros there... Really not sure how they have them in stock before the actual case manufacturer? Mine shipped out today from Verizon though.

I've owned ever single iPhone since the original and have never used a case or screen protectors for that matter, but some of the cases you guys are posting look awesome! I think i might have to get one for my iPhone 6 Plus, or maybe give Ghost Armor a try.

Does the Incipio Feather have a lip on the front to protect the screen? Thanks!

My local AT&T Store already has a selection of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus cases. When I was at the store I saw a rack with cases on both sides. I noticed that they weren't labeled for what device they were for. After a quick inspection I noticed there were two sizes and they had the buttons and ports that were exact to the iPhone 6 and 6 plus. They had colored dots on them and the store employee told me they were indeed iPhone 6 cases and they had a colored dot for the 6 and the 6 plus to indicated which one they were for (as if the size of them wasn't enough).

They had one of these...

I ordered a Spigen Neo Hybrid EX from Amazon today for my 4.7 64GB space grey that will be here 9/19 preordered. Here's the case I ordered, in the metal slate border with the clear back, no cutout:

It's going to be here Wednesday, so I'll have something in the form of my phone a couple days early :cool:

Mine came in today. I really like it. Quality and packaging is very good.

Same brand and style as I had for my 3GS and 5 ... Vaja Top Flip in black/black.

Anybody come across a case available in the UK that has the bottom totally open? Need room for the 30 pin>Lightning adapter and all the cases I've seen has the Lightning port/speaker/headphone jack all separated.
 
Waterfield already taking orders for their iPhone 6 "holster cases", the iPhone 6 Spinn Case. All leather. Three colors. Made in the USA. Gorgeous.

And they are even selling variants of these holster cases which will be just roomy enough to accommodate your iPhone 6 within an Apple case. Yep, well thought out indeed.

I am normally a fan of running my phone naked (Samsung Galaxy S3, iPhone 5, and HTC Thunderbolt), however the camera lense sitting proud of the back of the phone made me consider a case for the iPhone 6.

Before I even put in my pre-order with Verizon, I had ordered the Spigen Aluminum Fit Case for iPhone 6. It came in last Saturday and I was able to get a feel for the size of the new phone. The case looks great, but all of the surfaces are smooth with no tackiness. I had hoped the black surface would be rubberized and help promote some level of grip, but alas it is hard and smooth plastic.

Then I ran across the Verus Aluminum Metal Frame case and it seemed to solve my tackiness concerns (still waiting on delivery).

Do you / can you use a screen protector with the Vaja Grip? I really don't want to scratch my iPhone's screen.

Did you compare the Verus to the Spigen Neo Hybrid? I would think that would be a closer comparison to the Verus than the Spigen Aluminum Fit.

Yup, you can use screen protectors just fine with the Vaja Grip. The 5/5S version just wrapped around the edges of the metal case… the new one looks like it wraps around a bit more since the edge of the iPhone 6 is curved, but it will be no problem with screen protectors since every screen protector I've seen so far stops before it gets to the curved portion of the screen.

In this old thread there are pics of my 5S Vaja Grip -- with a Power Support screen protector on my iPhone.
