So I have a mophie case for my 6s plus but the fit is super tight! The phone was tight going in but almost impossible coming out!! Anyone else having this issue??

Was it originally designed for the 6 Plus? While the 6s Plus is only marginally thicker than the 6 Plus, it has caused a few issues with particularly tight fitting cases.

Do you have a white -faced phone? It'll fit a bit tighter because white faced phones are slightly thicker on the face since it seems it gets an extra coat of paint

Also have one using it on my iPhone 6s Plus Space grey and the fit is really tight. Feels like you are breaking the phone removing it from the case

I used to buy Mophie cases in the past and they were always tight/difficult to remove but they are fitted perfectly to the phone. This wasn't too much of an issue because I would rarely take it off but if you take it off often it will be a huge problem. I would try to return it for a new Mophie case but I'm almost positive you will have the same issue. This is just the way Mophie makes their cases, the top part was always easy for me but getting the lower half off what really difficult every single time :(

Yea unfortunately I swap cases all the time. But the mophie will only be used when needed on heavy heavy days, Which is rare.. Most of the time the battery life last me a full day easily

Hummm, let me see, A $1,000 iPhone vs a $150 dollar case (approx) for extra battery on a device that already has excellent battery life, I personally wouldn't take a chance messing up my iPhone, but thats just ME.

I think Mophie has quietly released updated versions of their cases that are compatible with BOTH iPhone 6 Plus and 6s Plus... My white Juice Pack case does NOT fit my iPhone 6s Plus at all without forcing it in. It fits my gold iPhone 6 Plus perfectly but it does NOT fit my Rose Gold iPhone 6s Plus without a fight... Has anyone ordered a recent version where Mophie has stated it fits BOTH the iPhone 6 Plus AND 6s Plus?

That's great that you wouldn't take the chance... and you're right it does get great battery life.... BUT there are those few exceptions when an extra battery juice is needed and an outlet is not around. Like this weekend, I'm going to a huge drag race in the middle of no where, so the battery will be hit hard from a few things like, weak cell reception, lots of photos and videos, social media, and then general usage. Then there are times when out and about on my motorcycle that would require the extra battery life, running gps and pandora over bluetooth for about 8 hours.. definitely don't wanna be without battery life while riding..

Yes that's make a lot of sense and I understand that totally. I would probably turn this feature on....

Same thing was driving me nuts with my 6 plus Simplest method is to run a small piece of double sided scotch tape on top rear of phone from just right of camera aperture to right side. Doesn't interfere with top piece at all. To remove simply put two fingers on tape and bottom of palm on face of phone and pull it out. So simple as sticky tape gives enough purchase to remove.
