Just picked up my black leather for the 6s plus. Feels slightly different than the 6 plus version but that could be my imagination. Now just need delivery next friday
Got a tip for us?

I ordered the Apple Leather Case in Black for my Space Grey iPhone 6s Plus. I've never had one of these cases so there is a chance I'll return it if I don't feel it will provide adequate protection. My case needs to have somewhat of a protrusion on the front edges so that it stands a chance to survive a face-down fall from a decent height.
For my iPhone 4 and iPhone 5, I used basically the exact same case: a transparent "smoke" colored TPU case with zero logos or flair. Both of these cases have served me well, allowing me to basically treat my phone nonchalant, drop it on just about anything except water, and still have it survive. I'll be looking looking for a case like that if the Apple case doesn't seem sufficiently protective, and this one looks very similar to my old cases.
I found one for the 6s+ at Belkin's website thanks to the above post, but I have a question for anyone who knows: is Belkin's color "blacktop" transparent like it appears on the website? Are there any visible logos on the outside of the case? If so, this might be the case for me - it looks just like my old ones and seems to have a decent lip while remaining thin, providing everything I want from a case in both form and function.

I DON'T KNOW!!! I got the 6S Plus in Silver and am still trying to decide.
I'm still so torn between what case to get. I really like the thin cases and I have loved by Elago Outfit case that has been on my 5S for the last 2 years. So, I'm leaning towards to either the Elago Outfit again (which gives it the corners for better grip) or the Elago Slim Fit 2. Going from the 5S to the 6S Plus, I am definitely concerned about the size. I'd really like to not make it much thicker/heavier if possible. But, I also want to protect it. I'm also looking at the Spigen Slim Armor as a case with a bit more protection.
Needless to say, I'll be checking out everybody else's recommendations as well.

I bought the OEM white and red silicone as well as the black leather cases for my iPhone 6S Plus.
Based on my own experiences with the six cases that I have for my iPhone 6, I would recommend two of them which I absolutely love. They give good protection against drops, don't add too much bulk and have a good grip. I'm pretty sure these two cases will be made also for the 6S and 6S Plus.

Bought the Apple leather Olive Brown off ebay for my White 6s Plus. Always liked the colour and it looks like it's been discontinued now ? - got it about 40% cheaper than the Apple store price.
I've also got the Apple Midnight Blue leather one - been on my 6plus for the last year. Big fan of the Apple leather cases - add much needed grip without much bulk and also look reasonably stylish.

Just started using the Apple Leather cases... have one in midnight blue and saddle brown that I will switch between.
Going to use one of this case on mine: http://www.spigen.com/collections/iphone-6s-plus/products/iphone-6-plus-case-slim-armor-volt
Working outdoors, it's the Otterbox Defender for me. I'm jealous of all of you walking around naked! Someday. 
The cases I would not recommend:
Laut Huex Blue and Orange:
The back scratches like crazy on both of them. Real deep scratches which I can feel when holding it.
Griffin Reveal Black
The clear back is not so clear, bit of a rainbow effect. Also lots of scratches in no time.
Artwizz Seejacket Black
I can feel that it doesn't add much drop protection, which is important to me. Adds minimal bulk, so not too bad for the people who look for that.
I have used the Verus Thor case on my last few phones and I really like it so I am going to stick with it on the 6S plus.
Why don't you go start a post in the iPad subforum asking what iphone people are buying?
I actually went back to the Apple Store today. I return the black leather case, I just did not like how was maintaining even after one day or two days. I got the tech 21 Evo mesh in black for my 6S plus. The good thing is they finally closed the back
