Apple iPhone 6 & 6 Plus Silicone Case Review
Apple's next-generation line of larger than life iPhones have hit the market by storm. And our job is to test the latest and greatest in iPhone protection. It isn't easy picking a case
for the hottest smartphone on the market when there's a overwhelming
selection of cases to choose from. And if you want to play it safe,
considering one of the official Apple-made cases for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus is generally the easiest decision you can make when looking to protect your investment. Instead of releasing one case as it has for the iPhone 5s, this year Apple has released two cases for the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus: one made from genuine leather and the other from a less premium silicone material. Both options mirror last year's iPhone 5s Leather Case design, albeit precision made to fit in with Apple's new rounder design trend of the iPhone 6. Naturally we were more interested in checking out Apple's new Silicone Case for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus,
which should appeal to a lot more users than Apple's more expensive
leather variant. The question is should you encase your slick, bigger
and better iPhone in one of Apple's silicone cases? You can catch our
full, in-depth review down below to find out.

Apple's iPhone 6 and 6 Plus Silicone Case cases
are beautifully presented inside familiar pod-like clear packaging,
which has a stress-free quick opening tab on the back for effortless
unpacking. Due to the rounded shape of the new iPhones, Apple has also packaged the Leather Case in a similar way compared to the iPhone 5s version, which came packaged inside a less original and more wasteful boxy plastic packaging.

If you’re not a fan of leather and the price tag that comes with it, Apple’s Silicone Case for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus
is a slightly cheaper alternative that will get the job done just as
well and will even provide more grip in the process. Although it will
cost you less than the leather-made variant, Apple's iPhone 6 Silicone Case will set you back $35, while iPhone 6 Plus
users will need to pay slightly more at $39. Both are offered in a wide
variety of vibrant colors including a (PRODUCT) Red, blue, green, pink,
white and black. Though on closer inspection, the black colored Silicone
Case is actually a very dark shade of gray more than a pure black hue.
So you will notice that it's a lighter shade of black when encasing a
Space Gray iPhone 6 or 6 Plus.

Blue and black Silicone Case cases for the 4.7-inch iPhone 6.

Red Apple Silicone Case case for the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus. As you can tell, the two are identical in terms of design, material and finish apart from the obvious difference in size.

From an interior prospective, the Silicone Case features the same soft and supple microfiber lining that you get with the Apple Leather Case for the iPhone 5s and the iPhone 5c Case to protect the aluminum unibody of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus whilst improving the fit around the device. The material fully covers the entire interior of the case
right up to the bezel, which is great since very little to no dust will
get trapped underneath your iPhone. It's a nice and welcome touch of
attention to detail that corresponds with all of Apple's iPad and iPhone accessories including Smart Covers and Smart Cases.

Just like the perforated iPhone 5c variant, the Silicone Case simply installs by gently snapping over the iPhone 6
or 6 Plus with a buttery-smooth friction, fitting around the device like
a second skin. As expected, the fit is absolutely immaculate and
extremely secured.
secured.

Apple
has once again used the 'less is more' approach towards designing the
new cases for its next-generation iPhone models. It literally looks like
all of Apple's efforts went into designing plenty of unique straps for
the upcoming Apple Watch instead of giving its iPhone customers a bit
more choice this time around. I mean don't get me wrong, the styling of
the iPhone 5c case was a bold and interesting move. There’s really nothing much to discuss. The back of the Apple Silicone Case
is as plain as it can get really, apart from a tasteful embossing of the
Apple brand that is. Because let’s face it, without the Apple logo this
case would look even more mundane and I do appreciate subtle
brand recognition here and there. That being said,
despite its dull styling I quite like the minimalist design and solid
colorways of the Apple Silicone Case. It’s not by any means the type of case you’ll purchase to appreciate the back side of your iPhone 6 or iPhone6
Plus, but rather a perfect accessory for concealing those controversial
and arguably ugly looking plastic antenna breaks many people have been
complaining about on social media.
A Smart Cover-inspired flip-style protective case, specifically one made for the iPhone 6 Plus, would seriously make a lot of sense now that the iPhone sports such a big display
and the ability to be used in landscape orientation. Alas, Apple never
did bother in making compelling accessories for the iPhone. It’s a real
shame that it has once again neglected the iPhone accessory market by
not spending enough time and dedication to conceive a brand new case offering that’s also practical and adds more value to its best selling iPhone yet.


Have you ever held a bar of soap? Yeah, that's what holding the iPhone 6 Plus
is like only at a much slimmer scale. I may be over-exaggerating the
situation, but anyone coming from a smaller device such as the iPhone 5s or larger Android devices like the Galaxy S5 will find it more difficult to wield. With the new rounder and slimmer all-aluminum design of the iPhone 6 I found that it was substantially more slippery to hold. Thankfully the Silicone Case
mitigates any and all remnants of its inherently slick form factor with
its highly grippy silicone rubbery material and matte textured
finish. It honestly helps using the larger iPhone 6 Plus one handed that
much more secure – and dare I say even more stable when you're going
over the edge with balancing your huge iPhone on your finger tips just
so that you can reach more with your thumb. The same applies when using
the 4.7-inch iPhone 6, but the benefit of using a case such as Apple's Silicone Case
is far greater and important in adding that much necessary grip to get
that bigger 5.5-inch device encased with this silicone material so that
you can decrease the chances of your losing hold of your iPhone.


The level of refinement and quality of the Silicone Case for the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus matches every other case
Apple has made that features this rubbery polyurethane material. But
instead of polyurethane, which Apple uses to makes its Smart Covers, the
Silicone Case is made out of this tackier silicone rubber material that is backed by an interior support layer that gives the case a
semi-rigidity structure. The matte finish gives the silicone a silky
smooth, super soft finish that's pleasing to the touch. We have yet to
use a silicone case that is uniquely made and highly refined as this one. Except for of course Apple's iPhone 5c silicone case. And just like it, the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus Silicone Case simply feels different when held in person than any other case we've tested, and that's a good thing. It's worth noting that like the iPhone 5c case, we noticed the black colored Silicone Case
attracted and displayed more lint and oily fingerprints atop its matte
rubbery finish. The material isn't tacky though even though it does
offer up plenty of traction, so with a quick wipe the case will be as good as new.
As far as durability goes, Apple's Silicone Case is not exactly a resilient. If you’ve ever used a polyurethane Smart Cover for the iPad
for as long as a year, you’d know that the material isn’t all that
durable against staining. The red color is largely more susceptible to
marring from everyday use. Something to bare in mind when choosing a
color. We would recommend black as the most durable color choice when
picking up an iPhone 6 or 6 Plus Silicone Case, or a Leather Case for that matter.


When looking for a protective case
one should also consider how comfortable it is to use and whether it
adds any value to the usage of your device. And I can definitely say
that the Silicone Case enhances the usability of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus thanks to its extraordinarily grippy surface without barely adding any bulk on top of it all. It also helps that the Silicone Case features a forgiving minimalist design that closely hugs every corner and edge around the iPhone 6
and 6 Plus so that it feels really great to hold, even for extended
periods of time. The silicone feels so good to handle that you'll want
to keep touching it and won't want to put your iPhone down. This
literally is a feel-good case, and that's exactly the type of protective case we look for when picking a case for daily use.


Unlike the iPhone 5c case, this silicone case does ever so slightly wrap around the beveled glass edges of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, and in doing so, the Silicone Case
fully hides and protects the aluminum construction of the iPhone. This
sort of overlapping design doesn't interfere with screen protectors as
far as we know it. The downside to this and virtually any iPhone 6 case
is that they all hinder the enjoyment of being able to slide your finger
off that beveled glass edge. And that's to be expected consider the
glass and aluminum seamlessly meld with one another with this rounded
shape as oppose to the chamfered aluminum bezel of the iPhone 5s that was met with a flat glass display.


Looks aside, the Apple Silicone Case
is more about what it offers the user in day to day usage rather than
being just another flashy accessory for you to customize the look and
feel of your device to further announce your unique individuality. No.
This is the sort of case that feels absolutely, without a doubt, fantastic. Just like the iPhone 5c Silicone Case, Apple has reused that same great case formulation in this iteration of the Silicone Case, only redesigned to compliment the drastic rounded and ultra-slim form factor of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. This case is exactly the same case made for the iPhone 5c,
only with a two differences made noticeable by its solid back and
bottom-less cutout. Because it wouldn’t make sense to annoy users with a
perforated design a la Crocs slippers, Apple has essentially replicated its iPhone 5s Leather Case in silicone form with an entirely solid back. If you’ve ever held, felt or owned an iPhone 5c Case made by Apple, then you’ll know exactly what to expect out of the iPhone 6 version.


Due to how extraordinarily thin both the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are, Apple decided to leave the front-facing bottom portion of the Silicone Case
partially opened, thus exposing parts of the iPhone's beveled glass and
aluminum body, which is bound to bother a lot of people and for good
reason. This type of case design has been used by many third party case
manufacturers for years now as it also allows users to remove and
install their cases more easily. And indeed we can confirm that even
with the larger iPhone 6 Plus Silicone Case it is really easy to remove
and re-apply thanks to the added benefit of additional flexibility
brought on by this wider bottom opening design.

And to be fair, the Silicone Case does wrap around the bottom edges to ensure that even with the exposed opening, the case
will still form a protective barrier between the iPhone and a flat
surface. That said, the bottom area exposing the edges of the glass is
still more vulnerable than the rest of the encased areas of the
device. The good news is that this large opening also allows the use of
bulky 3.5mm audio plugs and Lightning connectors made by third party
manufacturers.


Taking a look at the front side of the iPhone we can see that the Silicone Case
offers an aesthetically pleasing periphery around the display,
augmenting it with a touch of color. It also creates an acceptably thick
border around the beveled glass with a nicely rounded edge raising it
from easily coming in contact with a flat surface such as a desk.
Meaning you’ll be able to place your iPhone screen side down without
having to worry about scratching it. And should you accidentally drop
your device, this raised edge outlining the front side of the iPhone 6
or 6 Plus should reduce the potential risk of the glass cracking upon
impact. That being said, we don’t believe that Apple’s Silicone Case will offer nearly enough drop protection as a more rugged case such as the noteworthy Spigen Tough Armor or the Speck CandyShell -
both cases are great alternatives with some tradeoffs. So if you are
known to drop your smartphone more often than not, we highly suggest
that you do not pick up Apple’s Silicone Case as it is only intended to
provide minimal drop protection from light impacts as well as perfectly
acceptable scratch protection on a daily basis.


The Apple Silicone Case feels great in the hand on both the iPhone 6
and 6 Plus, offers a bunch of grip and traction and most importantly its
got an extremely sturdy perimeter that won't flex unnecessarily.
However, it will flex slightly to fit over the iPhone without much
effort. While you may be able to slightly bend the case from side to
side, you won't be able to bend or flex it in half which is the reason
why it feels this rigid when put over the iPhone. It's also worth
mentioning that the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus Silicone Case case is
very slim, very light and features a thin shell-like shape that has a
very thin profile so we're glad to see that Apple made sure to
strengthen the edges so that they don't sag or have any weak spots
otherwise found on other silicone-type cases. This case seems to have a perfect balanced frame and strengthened support against unwanted flexing for a silicone rubber made case, and that's impressive to say the least.


Around the case are seamless pill-shaped button indentation creating a fully encased protection around the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus while buttons remain highly tactile and a pleasure to press through that silicone material.

Conversely,
the cutout for the mute/silent switch above the volume up and down
buttons is on the small size which will require most to use their
fingernail to activate that switch through the small opening.

Taking
a closer look at the camera and True-Tone LED flash opening we can see
that Apple has used the same black plastic outliner from the leather case in order to create a bezel around the opening which separates the colored portion of the case to eliminate any flash wash-out when using the camera in the dark. We tested the red version of the case with an iPhone 6 Plus
and took a photo in completely darkness with the help of the LED flash,
and I’m happy to report that there were no color tinting intrusion or
flash-back issues whatsoever. Photos come out clean as expected when
using these colorful silicone cases.

It’s also worth pointing out the fact that when encased with the Apple Silicone Case, the camera bulge being the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus is discretely recessed within the camera and LED cutout. So if for whatever reason this bothered you, using a case even this slim will help mitigate your understandable OCD-ness about the arguable design flaw and uneven rear side of your iPhone 6.


With Apple's Silicone Case
you're not going to get much in the way of drop and impact protection,
so if that's what you're mostly concerned about having dropped your
phone on numerous occasions, then this isn't the case you should be purchasing. The Silicone Case
is made with a thin layer of shock-absorbing silicone so it's great from
a minimal bulk standpoint as well as serving as a fantastic grippy
casing for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. It's not a case
that will appeal to everyone. But we think it's a great option to
consider nonetheless. The biggest drawback is of course the price. And
if you're willing to spend upwards of $40 on a very well made silicone
rubber case, you'll be hard pressed to find a better similar alternative. Do you want the slimmest case with the most amount of grip? Get the Apple Silicone Case.
Apple's Silicone Case isn't going to do anything to keep your iPhone 6 Plus from potentially bending inside your pocket. If you're actually worried about such madness, get yourself a rigid case such as Spigen's Tough Armor or a less bulky option – the Speck CandyShell Grip. Though the obvious tradeoff to using a robust case
such as the Tough Armor is clearly more bulk and less grip. But what's
more important to you than protecting your investment from bending
inside your tight skinny jeans?
And if you're still set on going for one of Apple’s official iPhone 6 cases, you may as well opt for the silicone case
as it will give you the best value for your money while still offering
the same amount of slim protection and great fit as the more expensive
leather iPhone 6 case that Apple makes. If you want a case that will fit your iPhone 6
or 6 Plus extraordinarily well, provide a pleasant feel and pronominal
grip with decent all-around protection, then by all means go for the
Apple Silicone Case. We highly recommend it despite its marked-up price tag. It's the sort of case
that you'll like from the very moment you slip it on. With its
simplistic styling, satisfyingly silky smooth rubbery texture and a
glove-like curve-hugging fit, the Silicone Case for the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus is unlike any other silicone or TPU case made by a third part case
manufacturer. There's no substitute we know of at the moment that offers
such an authentic fit, finish and enhanced user experience. And for
that reason it is worthy of our Editors' Choice Award.

Samsung Galaxy S6 vs Apple iPhone 6: Smartphone Face-off
The iPhone 6 and the Galaxy S6
basically have two things in common: They're the smartphone measuring
sticks for the rest of the industry, and they represent a fairly big
departure from their predecessors. The iPhone 6 finally gives Apple fans
a bigger 4.7-inch display, as well as new capabilities, such as Apple
Pay. For Samsung, the Galaxy S6 represents a fresh start for the brand,
with an all-new, glass-and-metal design (no more plastic!).
But Apple's and Samsung's flagships are totally different in most other ways, from processing power and screen quality to cameras, interface and battery life. I put the iPhone 6 and Galaxy S6 through nine rounds of handset-to-handset combat to name a winner.

has always been a hallmark of the iPhone, and the iPhone 6 maintains
that tradition. Made of anodized aluminum, stainless steel and glass,
the latest iPhone has rounded edges and a smooth but sturdy body. It's
almost too smooth, though, making it feel somewhat slippery. But I do
like the way the glass display curves to meet the rest of the chassis,
which gives the design a unified aesthetic.
Credit: Jeremy Lips / Tom's Guide
The Galaxy S6 is iPhone-like in some ways, especially the aluminum bottom edge, but I prefer the overall look and feel of Samsung's phone. On the black model, for instance, the Gorilla Glass 4 back appears to change from black to blue depending on how you hold it. There's also a white-and-gold model of the S6, whereas the iPhone 6 comes in either gold, silver or space gray.
Measuring 0.27 inches thick and weighing 4.9 ounces, the Galaxy S6 is about the same thickness but slightly heavier than the 4.6-ounce iPhone 6, but the S6 is remarkably light and thin, given that it has a bigger 5.1-inch screen. However, the S6 has a bigger bump for its camera on the back.
This round is not close. Yes, the iPhone 6 has a bright display that's bigger than before (4.7 inches versus 4 inches), but the Galaxy S6's larger, 5.1-inch Super AMOLED panel runs circles around Apple's screen. For starters, you get much higher resolution from Samsung, at 2560 x 1440 pixels, compared to the iPhone 6's 1334 x 750 pixels.
Just as important, photos and videos just look better on the S6, as evidenced by our side-by-side comparison of The Avengers: Age of Ultron trailer. The S6 shows more contrast and detail, especially in Robert Downey Jr.'s face. The iPhone 6 delivers more natural-looking color, but I prefer the more saturated hues from the S6, as well as the superior black levels.

the Galaxy S6, Samsung moved the speaker to the bottom of the device
(the S5's speaker was on the back of the device), and the result is
louder, but not necessarily cleaner, audio. The S6 sounded more
boisterous when I blasted Caesars' "Jerk It Out." However, the iPhone
sounded balanced, with more of a bottom end; the same track on the S6
was harsh.

iOS 8 is supereasy to use and even more flexible. For instance, you can
finally swap out the default keyboard for a downloaded one, and there
are photo extension apps to help you get more out of the camera. Double
tapping the home button provides instant access to your favorite
contacts, and swiping down on the display while on the home screen
launches the excellent Spotlight search feature for finding apps. But
now, Spotlight is smart enough to also include relevant results from
Wikipedia, Maps and various news sites.
However, the iPhone's Today screen, which includes Notifications in a separate tab, wastes a lot of space compared to the Galaxy S6's notification drawer. In fact, you can access quick settings and notifications all in one place. On the iPhone, you need to swipe up from the bottom of the display to access settings shortcuts, and there are fewer shortcuts.

other ways, Samsung has streamlined its TouchWiz interface (which runs
on top of Android 5.0) and made it more user-friendly. From the home
screen to the settings menu, there's less clutter than before. Samsung
also provides a better built-in keyboard, complete with a number row,
and you can run two apps side by side. Plus, you can download custom
themes that let you customize the look and feel of the phone.
Samsung
promises to launch its own mobile payment solution this summer, but in
the meantime, Apple is off to a huge head start with Apple Pay. With NFC
technology and the Touch ID sensor, you can use the iPhone 6 as a
wallet in more than 700,000 locations. Samsung Pay has the potential to
work in more places because it supports both NFC and magnetic secure
transmissions, but we'll have to wait and see how well it works.
Another unique benefit of the iPhone 6 is Family Sharing, which allows you to share purchases from iTunes, iBooks and the App Store with up to six accounts. Have a Mac or iPad? Thanks to Continuity, you can accept iPhone calls from those devices, as well as send and receive texts. Then there's Siri, which continues to be the smartest voice-enabled assistant (although Google Now is faster).
The
Galaxy S6 has several special features of its own, starting with
wireless charging. The S6 supports both the Qi and PMA standards, so you
can juice it using a wireless charging pad or at businesses that
support the tech. (Note that the above image shows the Galaxy S6 Edge
but the S6 works with the same accessory). Want to go the wired route?
Fast charging allows you to get to 50 percent battery capacity in just
30 minutes.
In addition, Samsung has improved the accuracy of its fingerprint scanner; you place your finger on the home button instead of swiping it, just like on the iPhone. Other notable Galaxy S6 features include a built-in remote control (powered by Peel) and a heart-rate monitor on the back that doubles as a shutter button for the selfie camera.
On
the benchmark front, the S6 smoked the iPhone 6. When running Geekbench
3, which tests multicore performance, the S6 scored 5,120, while the
iPhone 6 notched just 2,931.
It
was a similar story on 3DMark Ice Storm Unlimited, which measures
graphics performance; the S6 hit 21,193, compared to the iPhone's
16,558.
I ran another demanding graphics benchmark, GFXBench GL (version 3.1), and the S6 once again came out on top. On the T-Rex 1080p off-screen test, the Samsung delivered 57 frames per second, compared to 42.4 fps for the iPhone 6.

the iPhone 6 delivered more faded, but more natural, hues in a shot of a
porcelain clown. (It's OK to be afraid.) However, the S6 picked up
details completely missing from the iPhone 6 shot, such as the specks on
his head, and it offered better contrast.

iPhone 6 fared better in a photo of my two dogs sitting on the stairs
with a decent amount of ambient light. It offered better white balance
and slightly better contrast.

iPhone 6 also delivered more accurate color in a shot of a bouquet of
decorative flowers. It turned out pink, which is what it's supposed to
be, versus more violet/purple for the Galaxy S6. But with the S6, you
can zoom in more and make out more detail in the vase and (fake) petals.

final test for the back cameras was a tree in front of a building. The
S6 offered way more detail, especially in the trunk and surrounding
stone wall. See the stone wall: The Samsung shot has a "whiter" (bluer)
white and more vibrant-looking grass.

you're a selfie fan, you'll probably like the S6 more than the iPhone
6. It has a sharper 5-MP front shooter that sports a wide-angle lens.
This allowed me to easily capture a photo of my two co-workers and me,
with plenty of room to see the environment. The iPhone 6's 2-MP front
cam captured warmer tones, but its shot looked a little fuzzy compared
to the S6's image.
But Apple's and Samsung's flagships are totally different in most other ways, from processing power and screen quality to cameras, interface and battery life. I put the iPhone 6 and Galaxy S6 through nine rounds of handset-to-handset combat to name a winner.
Design
The Galaxy S6 is iPhone-like in some ways, especially the aluminum bottom edge, but I prefer the overall look and feel of Samsung's phone. On the black model, for instance, the Gorilla Glass 4 back appears to change from black to blue depending on how you hold it. There's also a white-and-gold model of the S6, whereas the iPhone 6 comes in either gold, silver or space gray.

Measuring 0.27 inches thick and weighing 4.9 ounces, the Galaxy S6 is about the same thickness but slightly heavier than the 4.6-ounce iPhone 6, but the S6 is remarkably light and thin, given that it has a bigger 5.1-inch screen. However, the S6 has a bigger bump for its camera on the back.
Winner: Galaxy S6.
Sure, Samsung takes some visual cues from Apple, but the combination of glass and metal on the S6 is simply more exciting than the iPhone's design.This round is not close.

Apple Pay and Family Sharing are compelling, but Samsung offers more features for your money.Performance
Powered by an octa-core Exynos processor and 3GB of RAM, the Galaxy S6 is the first Samsung phone I've tested that exhibited little to no lag. In fact, the S6 closed apps a hair faster, and opened its camera quicker, than the A8-powered iPhone 6. It took both phones about the same amount of time to open the Stormblades game (8.91 seconds for the S6 versus 9.1 seconds for the iPhone 6).I ran another demanding graphics benchmark, GFXBench GL (version 3.1), and the S6 once again came out on top.

Both Apple and Samsung upped their camera game for the iPhone 6 and Galaxy S6. The iPhone 6 has an 8-megapixel sensor with an f/2.2 aperture, while the S6 has a 16-MP sensor with an f/1.9 aperture, which should give the Samsung an advantage in low light. It does.Winner: Galaxy S6.
Although Samsung's camera sometimes oversaturates colors, its photos are sharper and offer more contrast.2015年5月28日星期四
New iPhone 6 waterproof battery case from Mophie
We always try to keep readers informed about some of the best new
accessories out there, and this next item will be of plenty of interest
to those with an iPhone 6. Mophie is a well-known accessory maker and
has just announced a new iPhone 6 waterproof battery case that we think
will be in big demand.
Earlier in the year we gave details of the new Mophie Juice Packs that had just been introduced for the Apple iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. Standard battery cases are always popular for iPhones, as these handsets sport a non-removable battery and the cases provide extra juice when needed. The idea of a waterproof battery case takes things one step further, and as there are not too many reliable waterproof cases for the iPhone 6 this seems like a logical progression.
Now Mophie has come up with its Juice Pack H2PRO, which features the same 2750 mAh external battery pack of the standard Juice Pack Air but inside a waterproof casing that should also protect your phone from knocks, drops, dust and more. The battery itself will more than double the battery life of your iPhone 6, and the case offers easy access to the function buttons as well as enabling pass-through charging and syncing for the phone.

As for waterproofing capabilities the Juice Pack H2PRO meets IP-68 certification standards. This means that the case should withstand being underwater for up to 4 feet in depth and up to 30 minutes duration. The standard Juice Pack Air is priced at $99.95 and the new waterproof Juice Pack H2PRO is priced at $129.95, which doesn’t seem too much more for what it offers.
You can pre-order it now for the iPhone 6 from this Mophie product page. It comes in black and has an estimated shipping date for the end of May. Sadly there’s no news yet for an equivalent case for the iPhone 6 Plus, but we’ll let you know if we hear more on this. Will you be ordering the new Mophie iPhone 6 Juice Pack H2PRO?
