How does the grip feel on that case? My wife has a Verizon edition dual pro case for her 6+ and it feels ok but still a little slippery. I'm looking for something that has a bit of a better grip seeing as how at work it's nothing but concrete floors and I really don't want my phone slipping out of my hand at the wrong time. I wish Otterbox and Speck would hurry up with their cases for the 6+...
Same situation at my work, all concrete..
I don't find it to be slippery, but I have had other cases before that offered more grip. I have a neo hybrid coming in tomorrow so I'll decide which one to keep once I get it.
The Neo Hybrid is what I have my phone in right now as a matter of fact. So I'll be interested in hearing what you think in a comparison of both as far as grip goes. Comparing mine to my wife's Incipio dualpro they're both about the same as far as grip but yet different feel...it's kind of hard to explain. I'm wondering if the brushed aluminum back is going to be better or worse as my Neo Hybrid. As far as protection goes I'd have to say the Incipio is better, but the trade-off is a tiny bit more bulk. I have big hands so that's not as big of a deal as what others might think.
Nice. I was actually hoping the neo hybrid would have a bit less bulk. The incipio definitely feels very protective though. I'll post my thoughts when I receive it.
It's just that he handset is so beautiful but it appears that many are trying to make it as ugly as possible!
I'm not disagreeing with you, I justifying think it's nice to post derogatory things about other people's buying choices.
Bought it locally in store. It was a choice between that and the spigen tough armor.
Got the cases I ordered from Amazon, KaysCase Kickbox and Spigen Kickstand.
The KaysCase is a cheap plastic piece of crap and will be going right back to Amazon. The color doesn't even come close to matching the product shot (it's much darker in person).
By comparison, the Spigen is mostly the rubber material with just the "Tough Armor" wrapping around the middle of the phone. I really like the overall design and feel of it, much thinner than the KaysCase and seems like it will match the aesthetics of the phone better. The kickstand part of it is just a slot cut through the armor that a credit card can be pushed into to use as a stand, and it comes with a plastic business card to use for this purpose. The only downside is there is no place to store the card with the phone.

I am dying to know if this case is pretty thin and minimal?! I want and bought a clear case by Spigen but I was wanting a little bit more of a lip to protect the screen and this appears to cover the screen but I am wanting to keep it pretty thin or minimal so to speak because I have the 6 plus and I see it comes in it also - but don't need the phone any bigger lol. And I see it is not available until Oct 25 so I guess you probably don't have it yet?
Edit: I guess that is just through Amazon. I went to their website and it doesn't mention any delay.

My husband got the Pelican Protector I think it may be called from AT&T - but has no built in screen saver. He thinks the fit is perfect. He likes it a lot because it has enough lip for him above the screen and fits snug and is quite minimal (looks somewhat similar to yours but no screen saver).
It is just that I am only going to use completely clear and minimal for mine lol so it limits my choice to about 3 that I have found lol. I have a Spigen now but I may get the rooCASE iPhone 6 plus Case, by Gelledge Premium Hybrid PC / TPU Protective Full Body Case Cover (clear and Alpine White) since it has a built in screen protector. I looked into it after I saw appleipadair mention it.

I never end used one on my 4S but wonder how resilent the aluminum is.
Will the matte aluminum scratch easier than the 4S glass?
I didn't read through the entire thread, but I think I just found the perfect iPhone 6+/ Phablet case.
