What's your favorite case for the 6 plus?

I am still in show off mood and love having a clear super thin case. The silicon has the perfect grip to avoid dropping with out being sticky. I prefer the buttons being covered bc I would hate for them to get scratched. The coating of the gel has the right amount of sheen - glossy with out looking cheap and not matte.
I love my gel case but noticed a speck that may be embedded in the silicon. Luckily it falls where the manufacturing symbols are so you barely notice it. It's been 3 weeks and bought it in eBay for only $6 so I don't think I can return it now. I'd buy the exact same style case though. I think in 3 months I'll buy another one since it may get scratched during normal use anyways.
Love the 6+ and am glad I purchased it.

Apple leather case but I'm waiting for the otterbox commuter and hopefully Tech21 comes out with an evo mesh for the plus.
For my 6 plus, I have the Pelican Protector, the USG and just received the Otterbox Defender. Otterbox wins hands down. Absolutely love it
Black Spigen Tough Armor for my SG Plus. Only got the Spigen to tide me over until Otterbox released their cases and it's turned out to be a pretty decent case, going to miss the kickstand. Have a black Otterbox Symmetry coming today and that'll be my case from here on out. Zagg Glass on the front.
UAG Maverick (clear). Thin and functional with protection.

I've ended up with a total of 3 cases:
1) Devia silicon/jelly grip - was bought for "temporary" use from place of iPhone purchase until such time I got my longer term case
2) CaseMate Tough - bought because it is minimal but seems/feels like it offers very good protection for how slim/minimal it is
3) Spigen Neo Hybrid - bought for the same reason as above, on top of the fact that the Neo Hybrid became my semi-permanent case of my 5S (I liked it that much)
At the moment, I'm using the Neo Hybrid (and have been since I picked it up about 12 hours ago). I'm thinking of keeping the CaseMate as a "backup" in case the Neo Hybrid cracks (which some people on the forums have reported because it is apparently made "too" thin). The Devia has been relegated to "super emergency I have absolutely no other case to use" status.

Caudabe Veil in Frost. I like a super thin case and this one is great. I would prefer the same case with the bottom coverage as well but haven't been able to find any quality ones out there yet.
If I could choose only 1 I would probably go for the i-Blason Clear Hybrid Bumper Case.

Ballistic Tungsten Tough Armor for the 6+ from bestbuy. It's like a beefier version of the incipio dualpro....soft silicon case with a polycarbonate shell and aluminum insert. The case wraps around the front of the screen and offers good face down drop protection. The corner protection is also very good. This case doesn't come with a screen protector, and for me it didn't matter as I abhor screen protectors.

is the inside hard plastic or felt lined like it was for the 5/5s? i just ordered this case but I'm worried about scratching
I have the silver Plus and bought the white Apple silicone case the day after I got my phone. I've tried like 4 super slim cases Caudabe Veil, Ringke Slim and Shumuri. I still end up always going back to my Apple case. I love how the fit is perfect and makes it as part of the phone. I also actually like the feel of the Silicone.

ugh. how much lip is on the case? i see amazon says 1.0mm lip. i never set my phone face down so I'm a little eh about that. this appears to be the thinnest case other then the rock tpu cases which i don't want a clear case. just worried that my finger will get caught against the lip.
