Review on Ringke Slim Gunmetal Protective Case For IPhone 6 - Snug Fit, Lightweight, Thin Scratch Resistant Coating With Tailored Cutouts by Teresa Thompson

I got this case recently when I saw a discount code on dealnews, so this only cost me $1.99. I generally prefer polyurethane cases because I view the polyurethane cases to absorb impacts better. My previous case I was using for my iphone 6 was a polyurethane case by caseology.I like this case better for a couple of reasons:1) it's a lot slimmer than my polyurethane case2) the opening at the bottom allows me to charge my phone without taking off the case when I use my amazon branded lightning cable. The caseology case I had didn't fit the amazon branded lightning cable, so I had to take it off everytime I charged it3) seems pretty durable. No scratches yet, even though I put my phone in the same pocket I keep my car keys4) it was $1.99 with the discount code!What's not so good with it:1) it's incredibly hard to take off. Sometimes I think it's going to snap when I take it off if I'm not careful. Luckily I don't need to take it off that often now that my charger cable fits2) I think it's not going to protect my phone from all the drops I've had with it compared to my polyurethane case. A drop on cement will likely scratch the case at a minimum, whereas my plastic case could take a beating. But I think that's the trade-off if you want a slimmer case6.17.15 update:Taking a star away since I now see scratches on the case. Not surprising though. I'll eventually use my polyurethane case when this gets too scratched up.

Pros
  • Fits my iPhone 6 fine.
Cons
  • Doesn't provide much protection and prone to slip from the hand. I do not recommend it.
