Great case for nexus 6p

Excited that Spigen will be making cases. I've been a big fan of them for my last two phones (GS4, Note 4).
 
I emailed zagg about their invisibleshield tempered glass and was told that they are currently not supporting the 6p. Obviously that doesn't necessarily mean they won't at all, but I cried a little inside when I read that

Does anyone have experience with the Speck CandyShell Grip case that's available for the phone on other devices? Just how protective is it? Do I hold out for a Ballistic, UAG, or Trident case instead?

I have had 2 speck cases. For iphone 5 and galaxy s4. Both amazing. Great grip and look.

I'd think that there'd be no better case for our new phone than the one donning the Nexus name on the case. I know it's expensive but it was my first choice.https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...tion/accessories_wall?hl=en-US&token=WoyFUofD

Did you actually try the Zagg tempered glass for the Nexus 6? I tried four of them and every single one of them had a halo. I Kept calling Zagg and asking what's going on and they said that the glass had been upgraded to account for the curved screen of the Nexus 6, but they were just lieing. I eventually returned all of the Zagg glass and found another great glass shield on Amazon that worked perfectly. I simply can't tolerate a glass shield if it doesn't lay perfectly flat on the screen.
 
I'm kinda disappointed that seemingly none of the rugged case makers are supporting this phone. I know it's a bit early, but you'd think they'd have a general design in mind, and would be hard at work trying to perfect it for release. My options are really limited at this point, and I probably won't order the phone until I have a case in hand so I can put the phone in the case immediately. What to do?

If you want a UAG, it really looks like Supcase did it's best to mimic the UAG design with their Supcase Unicorn Beetle for the 6p. It looks like very good drop protection with those corners being more buffered.

I didnt have a nexus 6, I'm going off my experience with zagg on my M8. The 6p doesn't have the curved screen so that hopefully wouldn't be an issue

Thanks, I ended up ordering the Unicorn Beetle Pro the other day, and Poetic is also releasing a case for the 6P in November. If it's a Revolution case, I'll get one. I'm also waiting to see which case Seidio is making for the phone.

So I have seen it mentioned several times, including in this thread, that the laser auto focus is located in the black bar next to the flash. However, when you look at all of the cases on Amazon, the renders have been updated to show a little separate hole just below the bar:

EDIT: that red splotch is an arrow I drew to point at the hole. Didn't translate so well to the uploaded image. :\

Here is a link to nexus 6p case search on Amazon, they all have the hole or a cutout to include it. If this is not the laser auto focus, what is it?

Amazon. co. uk has the Poetic Revolution case for the 6P listed as in stock on November 29th and can be ordered now.

If I put any case on it, it will be a folio style or maybe just a leather pouch. Don't really care for cases.

I just received my Verus case for the 6P, from Amazon on the 1.99 coupon deal. Well as we can see from the pics below, lazer auto focus is blocked. And the bar surrounding the case is plastic and not the thin aluminum like in other ones.

I've contacted Verus via Amazon. Will see what happens. I'm sure they sold them for 1.99 knowing that the lazer autofocus was blocked. I even sent then a question prior to purchase via Amazon and they confirmed that it would be correct on the one I received.
