Recommend a slim case option for a 6s Plus?

    Can anyone recommend a case for the 6s Plus?
    I currently have a leather folio type that just seems to be an annoyance when holding it.
    I'm not a fan of the clunky otterbox type cases either.
    Are there any other decent options?

    I've been reading good things about Peel cases. I haven't bought one for my 6 as the wait time for delivery from the US is putting me off!

    I have a spiegen airskin case on my iPhone 6. It's very thin but wouldn't give much protection if I dropped the phone but it stops it getting scratched in my pocket.

    Have you tried the Apple leather cases? Fits perfectly, protects well, slim as can be and long lasting.

    Tech21 good protection and not bulky. Have one on my 6+ and my 5s before that.

    Apple case is overpriced but very stylish. Bottom is exposed entirely though so in a drop you could get unlucky. I found the leather wore poorly and stained easily, while the silicon had better grip but attracted lint and particles easily.

    If you want to go budget option then you can't beat the Diztronic tpu case on amazon. They have a great reputation but tpu does pick up oils from hands and can be hard to clean

    In between you have infinite options, and some of the best are these :

    Tech21 evo check is nice and slim but the bumpers make it a bit thick. I like how it feels though and the transparent back is pretty scratch resistant. Its good in a drop as it has flex shock material which redirects the impact.

    Spigen Neo Hybrid gives decent protection and stylish. Tpu and plastic bumper around it. Best of the spigen bunch.
    There is also a spigen liquid crystal soft tpu case which looks great and slimmest case I have seen, but almost zero protection. Very flimsy and particles get in the back which can scratch your phone.
    And there is a spigen ultra hybrid. Clear case like the liquid crystal with clear polycarbonate back which discolours over time. But still a pretty decent case and reasonably drop protective.
    The slim armour and tough armour are also very popular. Very good protection but too thick for my liking and back gets scratched up easily.

    UAG also make great cases, comes in a variety of colours, reasonably slim and drop tested to 2 metres. Feel great in hand.
    Some meteor and three shops carry them now for 29.99 which is a decent price and in line with Amazon.

    My top 3 are UAG maverick (black), Tech21 Evo Check (smoke red), and Apple silicon case (product red).

    I got an Apple silicone case for my 6s. Bit pricey but is decent quality and very slim. Delivered from Apple in 2 days.

    Is still the best one I've seen in person so far. I thought that the leather one looked a bit cheap and didn't feel as nice to hold.

    I have the Knomo one, it's great. And the magnet is very useful for the car.
