Cases for the S6 active

[jackal2001]

I've stuck with the bodyguard case for a few months now. Just works the best for me.

I purchased this case at AT&T and it looks great but I hate how slippery it feels. I say that because it grips to nothing and the buttons are extremely sensitive. The case is very solid and looks great. I am actually going to return it back to the store and get an otterbox because I have to have a case with a good grip. When I was driving earlier I left the phone on my passenger seat and every turn,acceleration, and brake the phone was sliding around. The back is a very hard plastic and feels almost like the front glass. I'll attach some photos and a link.

This case is the Sonix Clear Active Case. Cost $45.

It's a nice case. I have it too but using Supcase instead. Will sell it if anyone is interested. It's basically brand new. PM me.

How do you like the Supcase compared to the Sonix? By chance do you have a photo of the supcase? And a link? Is it grippy and how sensitive is the buttons on the sides?
Thanks

I sure do hate how sensitive these buttons are on the Sonix case I have.

I went on ahead and ordered a SUPCASE unicorn beetle hybrid case. Black and frost clear. Should be here Wednesday. I chose this because from reading this post people said it make the side buttons less sensitive. Also I like the clear back design. I hope it has a little more rubbery grip then this Sonix case I have.

I forgot to mention I also ordered a i-blason halo case. It should be in today. My Supcase unicorn beetle hybrid case should be in tomorrow.

I was looking for a very slim case that would not add much bulk. Found this case, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...ag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU4716313. So far, I like it. I got the black one, the Amazon picture is accurate. It's matte black, I would prefer it to be a little more grippy, the back side is fairly smooth. My active search is over. If someone comes up with a very thin, grippy case, I might try that though.

My i-blason halo case came in. It's listed as navy blue but it's more royal blue. I still like the color. Looks and feels great! Has way better grip then that sonix case I had. It is a very thin profile, but does seem protective. It does not interfere with my zagg glass screen protector either. I will make a comparison with my Supcase unicorn beetle hybrid case tomorrow when that one arrives. I did find out that they are made by the same company. So I don't assume much difference.

Hmm.... where did you purchase yours from? I have the same one but it does not have a lip on the front like yours. Maybe they have revised the fit a little since I got mine.

I ordered from Amazon. I'll get you a link. Even either a glass screen protector the lip spaces the display from any surface even lay flat on the front.

I just returned that sonix case to AT&T and got a otterbox defender. I'll post comparison photos later.

See, that's the same one I ordered, and even the pictures look like mine looks. Take the first picture, you can clearly see the front edge around the phone between the case, like mine. Yours doesn't appear to have that. Your case looks like it covers over that edge.

The front lip on the edge of my case is just BARELY taller then the physical buttons.
