Sorry for the boring thread on a Saturday night, but I ordered my new phone today and need a case for it. With over 2 million to search through on Amazon and 1.5 million on Ebay I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed!

I love this one but it has bad reviews. I like the fact that it is colourful, clear and you can see the Apple logo. I also like the Ted Baker ones but again they don't have great reviews. I want something sturdy that will withstand being dropped but - pretty too... Help!

I take that back about Amazon. There are over 4,755,000 search results!

That's quite an expensive case and the reviews are poor as you've identified.

I'm using one of these and I really like as it is grippy http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00NHD9ZJ4/ref=mpssa118?qid=1454434025&sr=8-8&pi=ACSX2200SY330QL65&keywords=Apple+6+case&dpPl=1&dpID=31Z5qz3fO6L&ref=plSrch

There are a number of different styles of case available so you need to work out your preference eg portfolio or simple cover, what material - leather, silicon, metal, heavy-duty and so on.

I read a number of reviews online before I came to a decision. I've attached one on this link for you as a starting point Smile

Otter box. Without a single shadow of a doubt. RRP is expensive but you can get cheap genuine ones on eBay or Amazon for under £20.

Does anyone know where I could buy a slip in pouch type case for an iPhone 6? I would like one in a cream or pastel colour but can't seem to find one anywhere.

This is mine and I'm always complimented on it. I like it as it is clear and you can see my gold iPhone through it but with the gold spots dotted over it.
Has survived many many drops and kids and toddlers playing with it... Including this eve on kitchen tiles!

I got mine from Tiger, it was only £3. Can't find it in their website, but it has butterflies on in different colours.

Life proof, Otterbox or Trident.

If you want sleek then life proof

Thank you all for your comments. I went with this one in the end because Case Mate had kept my old iPhone safe for 2 years before.
