True - they are on the pricey side! For me, they do the front cover exactly how I want on the Top Flip and maintain a classy, non bulky look while giving your phone some meat to grab on to. So it's almost like there isn't another option for me. That and they last forever while still looking great! I mean, in and out of a denim pocket numerous times a day for over 700 days and it looks better than day 1 :) . I know a budget is a budget, but if you can afford it, it's a 1 time purchase that will last you the life of the phone (and definitely longer).

Hey thanks a lot, that definitely helps with making the decision!
 
Just ordered this case. How is the fit and finish?

Seems to be well-made. Feels good to hold. Won't know how well it fits and how well the buttons work until Friday. It's one piece with protective films on back and inside that you remove before use.

Elago and Ringke SLIM

I've been a fan of these products ever since the iPhone 4. Slim, Matte finish. Decent protection but nothing Otterboxish. Will probably give each one of these a try considering the low price point. At the end of the day I may go naked since the phone seems to have a similar build quality to the first iPhone.

Not sure if I'm going to case mine or not. I should, but then it's a shame to cover this beauty. I hate cases. and, I'm also very careful. But luck does run out....
 
I use the ZAGG wrap

I've had every iPh since the first release. I have always, once received, immediately do a full wrap on the new iPh with ZAGG film. I never felt compelled to cover and hide the cool-thin-design with a thicker cover, no matter how thin. It slides in and out of pockets with ease, no extra bulk. I've dropped phones from time to time and have never had damage done to the phone when wrapped with ZAGG. I sell my old iPh's to Gazelle and am able to mark them as looking new, no scratches, blemishes, dents and or cracks, and they always accept them as in said condition.
 
I'm waiting for iSkin to release their i6 + cases. Been using iSkin cases for many years with no complaints. Not a fan of bulky cases at all.
 
I will be using a Apple leather case in Midnight Blue for a month and then I'll be caseless once I get used to the size, weight, etc.
 
Apple leather case in black...so it doesn't show the unsightly wear marks or "patina" that the other colors quickly show. I've had one just like it on my iPhone 5 longer than any other case in my history, and I ordered one for my sooncoming new iPhone 6 last night from Apple.com store. Great product & great quality.

Can you post a pic of your black leather case? I'm debating getting one but have been worried about how it wears over time
 
Going with the Spigen Aluminum, in Silver/White

http://www.spigen.com/iphone-6-case-aluminum-fit-4-7.html

I'm wondering if the aluminum will decrease the reception? Also, does anyone know if the polycarbonate will make the case slippery or feel cheap? I like the looks of their polycarbonate cases from the website but I'm not sure if they will feel cheap? I have generally used high strength stiff rubber cases in the past.
 
I normally stay without a case for a bit. But then end up getting a case. This time I am not sure which one I want. Thinking either one of the apple ones. Or as skin it actually. I want something with a grip but is slim so going to test apple one.
