Slim & protective, but WISH I'd known...
Decent case (will elaborate further below), but here is what I DON'T like about it, that I wish I had known:1. The buttons on either side are not tactile on the case (power and volume buttons). I can never find them and have to "feel" for them or just start pushing on the case in about the spot I think they are until the desired action occurs. So annoying! I thought it would get better with time, as I developed a feel for the case and buttons, but in almost 3 months' time, it hasn't.2. The volume button and power button are directly opposite each other, so when I push one, I end up inadvertently pushing the other. Yes, I REALIZE this is an iPhone issue and not the case itself; however, if the buttons were tactile (as discussed above), I would know to grip my phone differently so I wouldn't accidentally turn my ringer down when I'm meaning to turn my screen off. I have missed calls and texts not realizing that I turned down my volume when I thought I was only turning my screen off.3. The hole for the vibrate switch...I wish there was a flap there or something. So many times I brush it or flip it on or off--unknowingly--while putting away or pulling out my phone. Then I don't realize my phone has been silenced and I miss my calls.My husband as the same issues (same case but for the iPhone 6 plus), so I know it's not just me! These flaws really bother me, but obviously I still rated this product 4 stars. Here's why:1. Most importantly, it has done an excellent job protecting my phone from the regular drops and spills that occur. As a mom to a toddler and newborn, my hands are full and I'd rather drop my phone than the baby. I'm kidding...but not really. Spills happen. Plus, if you've ever given your phone to a toddler to occupy him...yeah, this case has been "tested" (nothing extraordinary--we're neither accident prone nor experimental--but as far as "normal" drops go, we've had our share). So far, the case has protected my phone as it ought to with NO damage.2. I should also mention that my last case (iPhone 5) was an Otterbox Defender--which I loved; the Otterbox even kept my phone safe from water damage when my son (newly learning to throw balls) threw it in our pool. *Sigh.* That was a dark day, but my phone recovered fully. You can see how important protection is to me and why I was hesitant to get anything other than another Otterbox for the i6. BUT the reviews for the Otterbox were dismal and I needed a case while I waited for those kinks to be ironed out. And I didn't want to pay exorbitantly for a sub-par "interim" case.Obviously I was nervous that this slim, light case was going to turn into a costly mistake if it didn't do its job. I'm ecstatic to report that a case that only cost $15-20 could be so sufficiently protective. It was cheap enough to replace with a better case IF/when one came out...but I don't think I will. Since I'm not planning to submerge my phone again (fingers crossed), I don't think I need anything heavier-duty than this.3. So slim and light...and accentuates the aesthetics of the iPhone as best as any case can. It's a bigger phone than my i5, but without being bundled up in the bulk of the Otterbox, this phone feels naked! It's like going to the beach in a bikini, but with the protection of an invisible full-body pair of Spanx. Best of both worlds, this case is.4. It's all hard plastic, none of that sticky, grippy, rubbery plastic on the edges. But somehow the colored edging "seems" a little softer, like it would absorb some shock, even though it's pretty darn firm itself. I was worried the clear, hard plastic backing of the case would be too hard, cracking in a fall or not absorbing any of the shock of impact, but clearly this hasn't been an issue for my phone.5. There is no front/screen cover. I paired this with the Tech Armor brand Ballistic Glass screen protector. It is great. Hardcore. Totally fits with this case. In fact, there is a small gap between where the glass ends and the case begins. Not enough room for anything to make contact with the phone in that gap, so plenty protected, but they both fit without getting in the way of each other. There is NO WAY I would have felt comfortable with a case that didn't cover the front of my phone without the ballistic glass. In fact, I have the faintest hairline crack on the ballistic glass from a drop (not the phone itself--whew!) so I know this case would not have protected the front of the phone on its own, despite the "lip" that comes up onto the front of the screen. GET A SCREEN PROTECTOR WITH THIS CASE IF YOU WANT FULL COVERAGE. Otherwise, the case is still a good one, but it can only protect what it covers.Would I buy it again? Give the pros and cons? Probably, but I would have shopped around more to see if there were decent options with better tactile button covers. I don't have enough experience with slim cases to know if this kind of protection is pretty standard with other slim cases, but ultimately protection is the number one factor for me. Otherwise, why have a case at all? It isn't for looks. And this case has EXCEEDED my expectations in that regard.FYI, I have the "silver" i6 with the white face. Unfortunately, there aren't very many color choices and they are all pretty vibrant, bold colors. There is nothing soft, muted, or feminine. I feel like all these colors are meant to be paired with the black i6 only--It would be even worse trying to pick a color for the gold i6! I got the blue case and was actually pretty pleased with how it looked on the phone. I will try to take a picture at some point, because there weren't many to look at when I was shopping around.

Sleek case that offers a nice grip and protection.
I spent hours researching various iPhone 6 cases on Amazon. I had a nice Spigen Slim Armor case on my previous iPhone 5, but the iPhone 6 version was getting poor reviews, so I decided to try out a new brand.I had never heard of Supcase before, but their cases for other phones seemed to have good reviews. I decided to purchase it. Here are my thoughts on this case:FIT: The iPhone 6 fits nice and snug into the case. It's not overly difficult to put it in or take it out. The phone seems secure in the case. The case does not add much thickness or weight at all.GRIP: I really like the grippy material of the bumper and the caseback. I find that it would definitely help to prevent fumbling or dropping the phone. While placed on a slanted desk, it doesn't slide down. The bumper lip sticks out slightly on the front and rear of the phone. This took some time getting used to since my previous case had a totally flat back. But I feel that the rear lip helps with grip, especially when using the phone in landscape mode.CUT-OUTS: No issues here. They are sizable for the camera, vibrate button, lightning connector, and headphone slot.LOOKS: This is a good-looking case and I have received compliments on it. The corners are slanted, which you rarely see on phone cases. The see-through back really is nice. In terms of color, I ordered the blue version. Most people I know have black cases, and I wanted a different color so my phone doesn't get confused with other phones. The blue is a nice royal blue color. The back end also has a slight turquoise border. The Supcase logo is subtle.BUTTONS: This is the only reason I don't give this case 5 stars. First of all, the sleep and volume buttons are flush with the edge. Granted, this gives the phone a sleeker look. However, this makes the buttons harder to find when you need to use them, especially if you aren't looking at the phone. There are grooved lines you can feel for, but personally I would prefer buttons that protrude from the edge. The other negative thing is that the buttons are loud when clicking them. I work in a really quiet office, and people near me can hear when I click a button. I would prefer silent or more quiet buttons.Overall though, this is a very good case that I am happy with. By the way, you may notice that this case is very similar to theย iPhone 6 Case, i-Blason [Scratch Resistant] Apple iPhone 6 Case 4.7 inch Halo Series Hybrid Clear Case / Cover with TPU Bumper for iPhone 6 (Clear/Blue) . They are so similar, I wondered if one company was ripping off the other. It turns out that i-Blason handles warranty issues for Supcase, so there is definitely some type of business relationship there.

This is the second case I'm using. the previous one lasted me for 3 years. This case has protected my phone through out these years with numerous drops and its easy to grip and the design is such that the phone is protected well. The only draw back is that the after 3 years.. the joint between the side and the back starts to give way.

Good looking, durable, minimalist.
I like this case a lot. Phone has taken drops above the waist onto hard surfaces multiple times without taking any damage. The case is a slim design, so it fits into pockets easier and doesn't add much weight. Ordered a transparent case and don't regret anything for the price; plus it looks badass (w/ white/gold phone). Overall 5 stars for having no complaints.***** EDIT. Even after trying out many other cases I have still used the supcase over any other. I have bought a mophie, otterbox, and a lifeproof. Still to this date I unconsciously have selected this case to be my favorite. I even forgot about writing the review above my edit; adding to my own reassurance to this product. I have a 128 GB gold Iphone that I have had many outdoor adventures with in the past year being protected by this case. Don't waste your money on anything else.One more thing being that I bought the clear case, having your light on when the phone is on its back, it gives off a nice glow lighting up the case making a lantern effect for friend gatherings on a back patio or a dim lit camp ground. I hope supcase will continue with the quality that I have found in this product.*****Edit now 3 years from original purchase. I am a plumber and a business owner. This phone case has stood the test of time, more drops than I can count. Small fracture, took pvc primer (purple in picture) and has saved the $1000 phone it holds many times.
