Recommended Best Transparent Case for iPhone 6 and 6+

Alex225 said:
I've just received the X-Doria Defense 360 case for my iPhone 6.

Been using a Griffin Defender case since I got my 6 as I've always wanted to preserver my phones, purely because I want them to last the 2 years until my next upgrade.

Anyway, I got fed up of the Defender, the screen protector doesn't sit flush and it spoiled the overall design of a slim phone. I'm careful with my Apple gear anyway so I've opted for a thin case and making sure the phone is insured!

The case is certainly thin, as in hardly noticeable to the original dimensions of the phone. Nice built in screen protector as well.

I don't think it would offer much protection in the way of drops but would minimise scuffing the finish or scratching the screen.

Air Jacket Smoke. I recommend this one for the black iphone.

I got the clear for my wife's white iphone and looks great with it. I don't like the clear on the black phone, but the smoke looks great.

I'm actually really pleased with it, it keeps the phone practically the same size and fits really well on the phone.

My only criticism is that the screen is less sensitive and noticeably so in the corners. But for the advantages of the look and feel of the case overall, I can cope with that. :)

great to hear!

i like the concept of the case and want something to cover my screen but stay clear.

im divided between this now and the fusion case, not sure which route to go though your experience makes me lean the 360 way.

thanks for sharing.

Just received my Spigen Air Skin in the Champagne color for my Gold 6. Perfect case for my needs. Just needed something that was extremely thin to protect the back from scratches when laid down on a table. Wasn't looking for any sort of drop protection.

I just received the Spigen Soft Clear (matte) 'Air Skin' for my Space Gray 6 Plus. It is flexible enough to easily attach to the phone, and just enough thickness for scratch protection - and is not slippery. It is only .4 mm thin, and yes, the camera does extend slightly beyond.

The Spigen logo is barely visible. The clear plastic box it came in probably cost more than the phone case itself! Great case for near-nakedness. Only $14.99 from Amazon.

Any time mate.

Only thing I would emphasise is that the case won't offer big impact protection. It'll stop scrapes and there is a tiny lip round the edge of the screen so if it fell flat it wouldn't hit the screen.

But that's no doubt the trade off with such s slim case.

If you're a careful user or have insurance go for it :)

I have 3 cases now! Spending more money than I should!
1. Apple leather case. Love it. However, the lip is exposed and I got a slight scratch there. Barely noticeable but it's a big deal for me.
2. Spigen case with the Apple Logo. Ugly. Cheaply made. Junk. Selling it online.
3. PowerSupport Air Jacket. This is my favorite. Thin. Minimal. Beautiful. Flexible. I will be going back to the Apple Store in a few days for a different color (clear).
PowerSupport and Moshi never disappoints me. When I try to go cheap or try something else, I always get disappointed and end up coming back to these two brands. Love them and have been using their protectors and cases for many years!

is there a transparetn case for PowerSupport ?
 
Came here to chime in with a recommendation (I bought 40+ cases for my 5 haha) for the clear Ringke FUSION for the 6. Only complaint is it attracts fingerprints.
 
I have had many clear cases. My 2 favorites are the Totallee and the Ringke

Both are a great value in my opinion. The Totallee is under $10 and the Ringke just a tad over.

I have also had some luck finding good deals on eBay, but it's a bit hit and miss, so if you want a sure thing go with one of the two I mentioned.

Any recommendation for the best transparent case for iPhone 6? I bought one last week and I am very disapointed as the case is very slippery, although its sturdy, when I hold it feels like I'm going to drop it.

I'm planning to buy this one iPhone 6 Case ULTRA SLIM iPhone 6 Case 0.6mm Transparent but not sure whether its worth buying or not. any recommendation?

I have this case and love it. The edges are wrapped in clear silicone for an extra grip but doesnt add bulk to the phone
