Miniot put out a teaser for their iP6 case. Always loved the look of their cases. Might have to finally get around to picking up one of their cases.

I've had my piel frama leather case for my podtouch 5g for two years now and as the iphone will be a similar design, I can say without any qualification at all that the Piel Frama leather case is the only one I'd ever consider. Also it slips in and out of the case so easily that you get the best of both worlds in that it's no drama to whip it out of its case when you want the naked look.

However if I use my ipod touch now without the case it feels like it's going to slip out of my hand and this will be relevant to the new slimmer more ipodtouch like engineering of the iphone

Well that case it pretty darn cool looking. How would that work in your pocket, though? would it not be difficult extract from your jeans?
 
Just returned my Verus Iron Shield it is a signal killer :\
It sucks cause the build quality is top notch, darn AT&T and
their weak signal here in town

really? what a bummer! I get really good signal in my area and I also have AT&T. I've seen some reviews on youtube that said it doesn't affect signal at all. My iPhone 5 Iron Shield works fine but I'll have to look more into it.

Does anyone else have this problem?
 
I've used an Otterbox Armor on my iPhone 5. With the 6 apparently (hopefully) being larger I'll probably go back to an Otterbox Defender.

Would love to go with something slimmer but I'm super paranoid about dropping my phone.

Love these cases. Maybe the best ever. However it's wood. It cracks. Easily. If you have the money I would go for it. If you want something similar but durable I highly suggest Twig Cases.

Kind of strange that their having a sale on a case for a phone that they dont know the correct dimensions yet.
 
I have the Verus Thor for my iPhone 5 and really there's nothing that protects it like it really. I plan on getting it for the iPhone 6. You guys should definitely check it out and they changed the design for the iPhone 6 case.

I have one pair of jeans with tight front pockets and it's no problem but better than that it feels protected, but read my other post about the 360 swivel attachment.
 
I'm still undecided on iPhone 6 until I get to see it in the flesh. But if I get it, a Caudabe Veil is the case for me. Absolutely adore it since it keeps my phone looking beautiful.
 
Ugh, I really want to buy one of those Spigen cases but I'm going to wait until Tuesday to see what they announce. I initially wanted the 5.5" but now I'm afraid it my be too large (not to mention a probable delay) so I think I've settled on the 4.7". But if there is a 5.5" and it's superior in any way (sapphire screen, more RAM, etc) then I'd probably be swayed back to the 5.5".
 
So far...
All Spigen
Ultra Hybrid Black, Tough Armor Gold, Tough Armor Gunmetal, Neo Hybrid Metal Gold
Now all I need is the phone:D

I want to buy one so I can pop new phone straight in. Of those which would you recommend?

It all depends on your usage..
The only one I've used is the Tough Armor on my iphone 5, and I've been very happy with it. I drive for a Purple and Orange delivery company. Lots of drops from 2 or 3 feet..so I need the protection at work.

I can't resist a bargain so I keep buying them up for $6.49 shipped on Amazon
I'll probably have a drawer full before I get my phone!

Now I'll be able to switch them up when I'm not at work

I'm in the UK. Amazon over here the tough armor is $35.61! I have one for my 5s and love it so might bite the bullet.

I'm a case addict myself. I had around 30 for my 4s. Been a bit better for the 5 and 5s, only have about 20!

----------

Ps, the iPhones go on sale at 8am on the Friday over here. I guess that's midnight in San Fran?

The Amazon prices for the cases keep going up and down. When they hit $3.49 I can't help but buy it. I'll pass along the savings to a friend if I end up not wanting it.

Being in the Boston area, it'll be 3am for me if it's a pre-buy this year.. And yes, I'll set the alarm, spend 5 or 10 minutes hitting the refresh button till my sale goes through and then see if I can get back to sleep!

Ok thanks for the info. I'll track the price this week and see if it goes down a bit.

Seems mad how over here it's a more respectable hour to buy! Ain't complaining mind. Good luck!
