What are your favorite cases for the Galaxy S6?

I've tried a spigen and uag cases and I've decided I don't like having a case on my phone. I've never had cases on other phones but the s6 is so damn slippery. I much prefer how the phone feels and the weight of it without a case. It's been dropped once on concrete with no damage so will take my chances.

So I got case hungry and ordered a couple cases tonight. I ordered the Spigen Tough Armor since a lot on here recommend that case for the s6 and seem to like it and I ordered the Poetic Revolution case since it says water resistant for the screen protector even though I doubt it is, but my Otterbox from removing the hard plastic shells so much is creaking again because I keep having to clean the screen.

Since I'm moving to FL figured having a rugged one for outdoors and the Spigen for general use. How is Spigen? I read good reviews and many on here love their tough armor case. I got an zagg screen protector I can use for it too.

More I watched the Supcase reviews on youtube and comments it looks like a cheap case not worth the money and harder than otterbox to get on and some S6 users on amazon complain the buttons don't match up good.
 
Been looking around for LG G4-like leather cases, the burkleycase leather came up, still deciding on it or cheaper Chinese knock-offs.
 
Would bet the kind of case you get depends on how you are gonna carry you phone.
I got he Tech 21 case because its made out of silicone. The silicone give you great protection if its dropped.

Sorry but a Big thick case just ain't gonna get it for me.
And the back is clear with the etching.
The clear lets you see the color of the back of the phone. But the etching makes the color look kinda like carbon fiber.


And I got a PT Hip case.
Platinium Hip case from Best Buy that I have clipped over my pants pocket.
Its been doing a very good job.
Its easy to get the phone in and out of the case and its nice to carry with the magnetic leather flap.

If I ride my Harley I do not ride with the case clipped on my pocket. I secure my phone.
 
I just got myself the Otterbox Commuter for two reasons: 1. Because I needed to add some thickness and some weight to the phone.

2. Because I have pretty big hands and the phone is so thin and light it felt like I was holding a piece of paper. I also wanted some protection but not a big bulk. Is pretty much the perfect case for my needs.

I bought the tech21 tactical case and returned it. Too slick and thin and the bottom would cut into my fingers. I ordered a spigen tough armor and a poetic case to go along with my defender. I'm sick of the defender creaking sound and dust under the screen protector.
 
Got a Glass Screen protector on my S6.
The Tech 21 is made out of Silicone. It don't feel slick to me. It feels soft and nice.
Of course I don't have trouble holding onto things like my Cell phone.
And i've had the case you are talking about that it tough to take apart to take apart and clean the screen.
Sounds like you get pretty Dirty.
When I do work like that I take my phone off my body and put it in my Truck. I don't need it on me when I'm in the mud to talk to people.

And its not too thick. Its thin and sleek. It ain't that much larger than the phone except on the sides where the cushion is.
And it protects the phone. I am not looking for maximum protection. I am looking for some protection incase my phone is dropped.
What I do like about it also is it has very small buttons on it that you don't hit all the time when you are using the phone.
I walked into Best buy took it out of the container and put my S6 in it.
I could tell right then I liked it.
I didn't have to order it and wait to see if I liked it.

With my defender, I took out the plastic screen protector and put in a Zagg glass protector on the screen of the s6 and it doesn't get dirty or creak.
 
I finally have a good case for my phone but it took me to drop it and crack the screen before making a effort to get one. After cracking it i jumped straight on google and typed Samsung Repairs Cape Town which got me in contact with RK cellular.... now they were very help full and repaired my screen the same day also they had a huge variety of cases. I inquired with the manager there on where he got his stock of all these cases, he was happy to share this information and told me alibbaba or aliexpress has decent price stock and even sell single cases and depending on where you lived in the world shipped for free.

Maybe try AliExpress.com - Online Shopping for Electronics, Fashion, Home & Garden, Toys & Sports, Automobiles from China. if any of you are interested.

Have you had any problems with the Defender messing up the Zagg glass at all?
Did you give up in the Incipio Dualpro?
 
No I have several cases I go back and forth on. Haha. The first time I applied the Zagg screen protector, I had it too far low so it pushed up the edge of the screen protector and it wouldn't seal back down so I used my warranty exchange and with the new one, I applied it higher. Now it doesn't touch on the bottom or sides and is under the plastic on the top so it works good now.

Yea, my Defender hits right at the bottom of the Zagg glass and I'm afraid that it will peel up the protector after some use.

You made me do it, look what I got in the mail today, Dualpro in Lime. :p
