I have always been a fan of bumpers and used them a lot on my iPhone 4 through 5S. However when I tried bumpers on my 6 and 6 Plus, they added nothing but awkwardness to holding the phones. Not so much because of the larger size of the units, but because of the way the bumpers don't have as a sturdy fit along the curved edges like they do the straight edges of the previous models.

I saw this on Yahoo news the other day as well.. this bumper is INSANE! So much effort to damage the phone but its still intact. I wish I had a spare phone to try this on.

Just ordered one. Got an email saying that stock is completely out in Europe, us, and China, so the device won't ship until Friday. Hoping it gets here sooner then that.

People at my work were talking about this too. I'm pretty interested in it. If you get it in please report back on your impressions.

I have one, I like the bumper feel, etc. The only gripe I have is that the headphone and lighting port don't fit all my cables...

I like the bumper. Has a good solid rubbery feel. My only concern was it was really tight getting on. I'm not sure I'd use this case if i switched a bunch. Maybe it will loosen up a bit, but so far i like it.

How are the buttons. Are they tough to push or a bit in the easy side?

Buttons feel really nice. Good action and not too hard to push but firm enough that they won't be push on accident all the time.

Nice. I'm still waiting on mine to ship. I'm usually very impatient, but it's been 2 weeks already and I don't even have a tracking number. Thinking about emailing them later to see what is up.

I emailed them about not getting a tracking number yet and they confirmed that it did ship but there is something wrong with DHLs system not sending out tracking numbers when the order ships.

I've had mine for about a week after seeing the article. It is hard to put on, but it seems like it will provide a lot of protection. Well designed and a great feel too. My only complaint is that the hole for the Lightning connector is slim. My official Apple 30 pin to lightning adapter for my iHome won't fit. As hard as the case is to put on, it is frustrating to not be able to use my adapter.

I'll give it a chance. Sounds like I won't have a problem with it, but I will always switch back to my OB defender should I have to. Glad that you all are enjoying the feel of it.
