OT - good case for white iPhone 6

Hi everyone. As per title. Looking for suggestions on decent iPhone 6 cases offering good protection whilst not making the phone too ugly. Currently considering the Spigen Slim Armour.

Any suggestions welcomed

Look forward to your review Matt. I currently have the spigen aluminium fit. Doesn't cover the front at all. Dropped the phone just now and chipped the bottom aluminium bit next to the speaker

Looks like it could easily handle a few drops. However for me it would be too much of a compromise on looks especially on a white phone. Otterbox has to be one of the toughest looking cases

They are very good and excellent warranty support as well.

The rubber but on the case stretched in mine (my own fault and I told them so), I asked where I could buy new rubber part, they said it's ok and sent me entire brand new case from states.

Used in Afghan, Colombia and Newcastle on my iPads etc.

Check out Element cases. A little pricey but by far the best case available. I have people complement me on my case all the time.

Always nice to have good customer service. I quite enjoy how you mentioned Afghanistan, Columbia and Newcastle in the same sentence

That is the M3 of cases. At least in terms of price. Quality looks great but a bit too transformer prime for my taste

Agreed. Currently have one but the drop protection isn't enough hence the damage. Wondering whether to cough up the 50 quid excess to replace on insurance or deal with my OCD and just accept it

I've had the slim armour on mine for about three months, absolutely no issues with it and it really protects the phone. With saying that though I've had a mobile phone in one form another since the early 90's and have only ever dropped a phone once.

Lol, i think i've only NOT dropped a phone once! I use it a lot for work so it does take regular trips to the ground!

Get an official Apple case. Bit more expensive but the fit and quality is noticeably better.

I like the standard Apple leather case- good fit and quality. But check out Sena cases .com if you like a bit of quality leather.

Hope this link works;

http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00M3Q4IF...+iphone+6+case" rel="" target="_blank">http://<a href="http://www.amazon.co...one+6+case</a>

I use that and a screen protector jobs a good un, really slim too so doesn't bulk the phone out...
