My iPhone 4s has bitten the bullet. I didn't want to upgrade but had to since my 4s's death. Anyway, I am looking for a good case for it. Anyone have an iPhone 6 case that protects well and is cute? I would love pink too.  |

I love Senacases.com
Expensive but they have the wallet case to carry your credit cards and ID.

I have a 4s and just ordered the 6, so I'm wondering the same thing. I've had an Otterbox Defender on the 4s but the Defender for the 6 is not getting great reviews. I'm a complete klutz so I need a decent case.

I'm really liking my Tech21 case. Much thinner and lighter than anything else I have had. It doesn't have a lot in the way of bumper on the top, though, so I also have a Zagg invisibleSHIELD Glass cover for the screen. Much better than the old Zagg screen covers that tended toward bumpiness. You can install the glass yourself, it's available at cell phone stores. |

I just returned my iPhone 6 and the case but I had an Otter Box Defender on it. The cases are much thiner now, more light weight and they have pink. I saw a pink one for the 6 at Best Buy just a little while ago. They don't have the Lifeproof case available yet, but it will probably have pink also. When you pay that much for a phone, it is good to protect it at the highest level.
I lucked up and was able to find an iPhone 6 Plus at my local Apple store this morning, bought it online and returned my 6 to AT&T. I bough a Ballistic case for it until the Otter Box or Lifeproof cases come out.

Mary K., I have never heard of those cases. I will have to check them out. Previously I have always used an Otterbox Commuter. Love those cases. My dd uses Lifeproof. I will see what I can find to use until I can get what I want. Keep the ideas coming, and thanks everyone! |

I got the "Naked Case" shown on this page, so the gold on my phone would show through. iPhone CasesI have had Sena cases in the past, and they are great quality. |

I wanted a case that was low profile but easy to get on and off, as I use an armband when I exercise. I wound up ordering this one from Incipio, and it arrived last night. I like that it protects the whole back (rather than a bumper case) and also wraps around the front a little so if you put the phone face down, the glass isn't touching the surface of the desk/table/whatever. I'll probably keeping looking (I'm really waiting to see what Belkin comes out with because I really loved the case I had for my iP5), but for now, this will work. |

Patter, I'm looking at these two on Amazon right now and they both come in pink! iblason caseSupcaseI'm bummed that the first one doesn't have the white option anymore. I really need a lighter colored case or they get lost on my bag. |

I love my ballistic case. I had otterbox cases in the past and the plastic kept breaking. They would send me a new one but it was a pita so I got this. No issues at all.

I have a Ballistic case on my phone now and I love it, low profile but still offers good protection. I wanted to order one for my new 6 but I hate the colors so I'm not sure what I'm going to do.

oaksong, I love the touch case they have with the pink edging. That could be a fun option. I ordered the silver phone, and love silver. Silver and pink would be very cute. snugglebutter, I love what you are looking at too. I have put the first one in my cart as an option. So many to choose from, and now off to look at the Ballistic case. |

You are going to love your 6. It is a great phone and Dh is keeping his. I mainly switched mine because I bought the Becky Higgins Project Life App and figured that the bigger screen would be great with that app. I also think that is will be easier for me to see during the night without having to have my glasses. Sometimes, I wake up during the night and check the weather or if I am having trouble sleeping, I may get on the internet for a bit. I have an iPad Mini R and an iPad 4. Since I have the 6 Plus, I am going to sell both iPads and get the new iPad that is coming out in October. I bought the iPand Mini to take when I travel (it is a WIFI only one) and I think that the 6 Plus will work just fine without needing to carry an iPad too. I will also have internet on the Plus which I sometimes don't have on the Mini. |

I don't have the iPhone 6 yet, but do have the 5. I have a Speck case on it (pink!) and I really like it. It has a slim profile, but there is a little bit of a rubber bumper that is higher than the screen. I've had it about 2 years and so far, so good.
Be careful of the lighter colored cases. I know the Otterbox cases with the white rubber bumpers look dirty quickly. They pick up dye from your jeans if you put them in your pocket and just get grubby. That's why I went with the Speck case. It was pink, with black rubber.

I ended up going a different route and chose this Speck case in blue. My Target has it so I did the store pick-up option since it doesn't seem to be in stock on Amazon or the Speck website. |

Interesting info that I read on an Apple Message Board. Someone on there called Lifeproof and they will be releasing their cases on October 30th for one style and the other in November. I also read that Otterbox owns Lifeproof. I had no ideal. Anyway, thought I would share in case anyone on here is waiting for the Lifeproof cases to be released.

I just got a cheaply one before I ordered my 6 plus and will use it until I Find a case I like. I know I don't want a bulky one for the permanent case. For me, it defeats the purpose of having a thin phone if I cover it with a thick case.

I have a hot pink and blue Speck Candy Shell Grip case on my 6 right now. My husband picked it out and I like it a lot; he knew I liked the Speck case I had on my 4s.
I just ordered a Speck Candy Shell Inked case last night, the Supernova design. It only just became available.

Oh yes. I forgot about Speck. I have used their Candy cases before and loved them. So much to look at. And lovetodigi, thanks for the info on Otterbox and Lifeproof. Sad those won't be out for a while. Continuing my search. |

I ran across these cases today for the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. For the price, they were worth checking out, so I ordered a green one. They have pink too. It should be here tomorrow and I will come back with a review. I like that it covers the screen when it is closed, so it will be easier to carry in my purse. I also like that it will stand up. I think that it will make it easier to use for some of my apps. If I like it, I may pick up extra colors and one of those glass covers for my screen. Here is a link |

Also not cheap, but I loved the 4s case I had from Uncommon, and I've just ordered one for my soon-to-arrive 6. You can choose from ready made designs, customize from their design library or your own image. www.getuncommon.com |
