I've aways used the Otterbox Defender. This time with the 6s Plus, I opted for the Otterbox Commuter. It less bulky than the Defender but still affords great drop protection.

I also have the black Apple leather case. It feels better but not as much protection from drops.

I fought hard between the saddle and the blue leather. Went home with blue and I'm glad I made the choice. I do like the saddle though.

But that Saddle Brown sure looks good. It just went on my wish list, I will be getting it also.

I have the black from my 6+, but I think the saddle brown is staying. The pic doesn't show it well, but there are nice very slight color variations that give it some depth.

I was very close to ordering this case but wasn't sure if I would like the corners. Any cons to it not having a rounded off corner?

No cons, the phone feels good in my hand when the case is on it. I've gotten some compliments too.

Plus you can't beat the price of $12.99 on Amazon.

Zagg Joltguard 👍🏽👏🏽👌🏽

I have a question about the Zagg Joltguard. I was looking at the case on the Zagg website but they don't have many pics or describe it too well. Is the back open to where you can touch the phone itself or is there a clear layer protecting it?

It appears that the 6s/6s Plus Apple Leather cases are made with European Leather this year.

This year's Apple Leather case packaging...

This year's Apple Leather definitely looks and feels like better quality

Nice catch!! I'm definitely loving my midnight blue/silver combo. And I know color from my jeans won't be noticeable on it :). If there was a dark hunter green color available, though, I'd try my luck with that! Love that color!

I bought the saddle brown yesterday and then decided I wasn't crazy about it. Swapped it out for a blue one today at the Apple Store and I'm glad I did it. The blue looks a lot better to me.

This years Apple leather seems really slippery compared to last years. My 6s Plus has more grip without the case on. I hope its only because its new and needs to break in, but the Apple leather I had from last year felt completely different.

This is my first time buying the Apple leather case. I don't find it slippery at all. I'm one that usually sets my phone on the dashboard and heads out. Have always had an Otterbox Defender, or most recently a Speck Candyshell Grip. The leather case grips my dash the same, which I was very surprised about. No worries about my phone sliding all over while driving. Which, is my main reason for having a case.

I bought the radius aluminum case in black. I have the rose gold iphone, and even though they make a rose gold color, i got black because it was cheaper, plus i have a black batman sticker over the apple logo anyway :D if you buy it from ahalife.com and subscribe, you get 20% off :)

This year's Apple Leather Cases are made from European Leather and is much better quality than last year's version. I posted a screenshot of the two different Apple Leather case packaging earlier in this thread. It doesn't feel more slippery to ME, just better quality.....I like this year's version better.

The second version of the lifeproof nuud case has exactly what you're looking for. the first version had issues with the door over the lightning port. It is also very slim for getting that kind of protection.

Just purchased the Vaja Nuovo Pelle Wrap Around Leather Cover in Chili Bridge Leather. Should be here in a little bit longer than a month (handcrafting process).

Wrap-around iPhone 6 Plus Leather Cover with magnetic closure

Love the fact that it covers the back and the screen while not bulking the phone up (the phone is so large, I don't mind cases that make the back a bit bulkier, but I try and keep the casing on the sides as minimal as possible)
