Getting one (maybe both) of these on launch day when I line up for the 6. Can't decide which one I like better though, so I might end up getting both :)

I bought the Spigen Neo Hybrid Metal in Space Gray. I have this case on my 5s and love it. This looks to be better because of the textured back and aluminum frame. I don't need to see the , but it's a nice touch. I hope Spigen makes/sells different colored frames in the future. My first Neo Hybrid had the Metal Slate frame. I bought the Gunmetal frame when I got the 5s.

Really like the metal frame but worried that the circle on the back will allow scratches in that area.
Or am I worrying about nothing?

Some people really don't like the opening and others have reported scratches from keeping the phone in pockets with keys, change, etc.

If the case isn't super snug, maybe you could put an inexpensive but crystal clear screen/back protector (get them cheap on eBay) on the back of your phone so the circle area is protected?

Or, you could just get this version of the Neo Hybrid without the opening:

(No longer offered at the crazy low price like the other day but still a good deal at only $15.99. Prime and "free super shipping over $35" available too.)

We just received our first Spigen cases (Total Armor) ordered through Amazon and we are very impressed with the quality. And the speedy shipping! Very pleased.

Waiting for our Neo Hybrids (the one shown in photo) to arrive! :)

I'm not worried yet. I don't carry my phone in my pockets or in a purse. I'll decide on putting a screen protector on the back after I have the phone.

I ordered the neo hybrid thanks to this thread. I've had Spigen screen protectors in the past, but never cases. I also ordered a screen protector. I might go for an official apple leather case...not sure yet.

I usually get Specks, I was hoping for a flip to be out by the time I pick up my 6, but I might get a grip in the meantime.

At least with the red Apple case for the 5/5S, it does get dis colored and darker especially on the edges. I personally like the worn leather look, but beware if you do not.

Do you think it would discolor if I got the Silicone case instead of leather? I don't remember anyone complaining about the 5c case which was silicone.

Silicone won't discolor because it doesn't absorb anything. Leather being a natural, porous material does. The leather cases feel really nice in the hand though.

Yeah, I like the feel of the leather, but the silicone feels great in the hand too. I'd better choose quick though :)

Thanks for the link but for whatever the reason I'm just pulled towards the Verus case, just the way the buttons are cut in the metal.
Would putting a film protector like you said on the back damage the back of the phone at all?

Mine basically looks burgundy now. Wonder if the silicone will change colors. No warning for that at the bottom of the Apple website.

The apple leather cases were the best cases I had as it never made the phone bulky or anything, when I get my 6, I'll probably go for the apple cases again. Probably the silicone ones this time.

Same here. I can't find cases for my iPad or iPhone that I like except for the Apple ones. They seem to be my favorite out of all my cases I try.

My Spigen Ultra Hybrid Crystal Clear case and Spigen Crystal screen protector turned up today. Very happy with both. Now I just need the phone and I'm well away.

My GF is chomping at the bit to get hold of my 5s (as the actress said to the bishop).

I'm going to evaluate the 6 I ordered and see if the protruding camera lends bothers me. If it does, I will get the leather apple case in black.
