What are your favorite cases for the Galaxy S6?

I don't use any case. I had S2 for 2 years. Now it doesn't look perfect but still not bad. I had original leather case from Samsung but it broke after 6 months, so I don't recommend it.
 
The UAGs are really nice, but I find my white one is a little slippery.

I also have the White UAG for the S6, Looks fantastic on the white S6.
Maybe a costume change is in store for tomorrow. Wonder how the White UAG will look on the black S6? :-\
 
I grabbed the Obliq Sim Meta case in the link above. I like the slim case, but fair warning to anyone else looking at it- The slightly metalized case apparently blocks powermat chargers. I bought two old powermat charge pads and neither work with this case, though the Samsung standard Qi charger (the one you may have gotten free from Bbuy) works with it fine.

This case is nice and slim,. and does alleviate the naked phone + sweaty finger grip issue . I read a lot with my phone, and the glass gets slippery when your fingers warm up.
 
One of the 6 Verus cases that I purchased was the "Hard Drop Active". In a word, useless. (Holster is junk.)
The case itself is OK. I also bought the "Hard Drop", which is the same thing minus the holster.

The holster didn't last even 1 day.
By contrast, I had purchased a Seidio case with holster for my RMHD some odd years ago and it's still in good shape.
The Verus holster snapped apart where the clip hinges together with the housing. No fixing it, as the plastic that retains the pin was broken. Really super weak design.

I'll still use the the cases, I simply do not have a holster.

It's the holster that is pure junk. It didn't last 1 day. Not 1 day.

Not sure any belt clip,would work accept for the leather cases. Ditched the belt clip on my cases years ago.

I edited my earlier post for clarity.
The Seidio has held up for near 3 years, so, yes, belt clips do work. Seidio has a break-away point built into their design where it can be snapped back together. Verus is just a cheap plastic assembly that broke while putting my hand in my pocket. I returned to Amazon to find many posts with the same issue.

Cool. Great.
 
I'm not saying I'm safer and/or more careful with my phone(s) than anyone else around here ... but what I AM saying is that I hate bulky cases ... and to me, "bulky" is anything other than a super-slim case that barely adds any size to the phone. I prefer to run no case at all, but with this S6 and the camera bump, I feel like I have to so that I can keep pressure/damage off the camera bezel. That's why I run either my "Terrapin Slim-Fit" TPU case, or my "Terrapin Extra-Slim-Fit Hybrid Rubberized Hard Case". Both are protective enough by far for me, but probably not for a lot of you. However, they are very minimal and do everything I want them to.

My biggest issue with most cases is something that's almost non-avoidable ... which is the "lip" that comes over the front side of the phone so that when you lay it face down, the screen is protected. The issue for me is that when I hold the phone to my ear, that lip seems to dig into my ear and bothers me. That's one of the things I love about the Extra-Slim-Fit case I have ... the raised edges are only on the sides of the phone, and top/bottom are "open" so that it's flat/flush, and there's no lip to rub/dig into my ear.
 
That orange uag looks awesome. Im going for the black one i hope the black one makes the phone look more black then blue lol. How do you like it is it good in the hand?

Yes, the UAG feels great in the hand. It adds hardly any bulk at all the the phone.
I'm a little skeptical how good it would protect the phone from a drop though. :(
