I keep seeing people posting "bumper" cases, but it seems that they don't understand what a bumper Case is our the company they bought from doesn't.... rusher way I'm looking for an actual aluminum bumper for my s6. Bumper meaning no back what so ever. Only edge protection. Please post any and all bumpers you find aluminium or otherwise and I will start a list here in the OP.
Ps. I have the versus iron shield bumper and while it is very nice I would highly recommend it, it's bumper bit large for my taste. Looking for something slimmer.
Aluminium Bumpers:
Verus Iron Shield Aluminium Bumper
Baesus Aluminium Bumper S6
Other Bumpers:
Spigen Neo Hybrid Bumper - Polycarbonate

The only other place i can think of is casefanatic.com,
bumpers category: http://www.casefanatic.com/samsung/galaxy-s6/bumper-galaxy-s6/
but they ship most of em from china so unless you choose fast shipping then it'll take a couple weeks to get to you. But they have a large selection of cases for the s6 including about 3-5 bumper cases.
I have a Verus Aluminum bumper. Spigen has an identical one, but with black rubber instead of clear. And there are plenty more out there.
I am, however, now looking for an all plastic/rubber case that isn't ugly as the aluminum completely kills signal. I lose about 40 dBm of signal (full 5 bars to 1bar/no signal) as soon as I put the aluminum bumper on.
My phone with Verus aluminum bumper:
Edit: Sorry, I missed your "P.S.", I read the top part and thought the rest was part of your sig. That said, anything "smaller/thinner" than something like the Verus won't protect the camera on the back. I'd personally rather have another mm of thickness and not be laying the phone down on the camera.
Any aluminum bumper will degrade signal and wifi,it happens on the spigens, obliqs, or just about any metal band. I had the spigen and noticed it.

Yeah I like the Verus and it's a great case. It's just so think... I love how they damn near perfectly mimicked the edges of the s6. I haven't had any issues with signal degradation though. Kind of odd that you are, the silicon buffer is supposed to make it so that doesn't happen. Very odd indeed.
Oh and I am going to edit the OP to ask for all bumper case suggestions so that those who aren't looking for an aluminum option have somewhere to look as well. :good:

I would've as well but it's not aluminium which for me personally is a must. Also I fear an aluminium version would suffer from the same size issue as the Verus.
If you both would post pics when you get them I'd like to compare it to the Verus for size. Obviously a picture isn't the best way to do it, but it's better than nothing.

i hate to admit it but you are absolutely right. I just got this bumber and love how sleek it is, i prefer it over my neo hydrid ex. But after seeing your comment and testing it out there's a huge difference in signal strength. With the metal bumber i get -113/114 dBm with 26 asu compared to the neo hybrid with -105dBm with 34 asu. i always thought it was just those cases with the metal backing that effected signal but just the bumper is enough to make a significant difference.

I had a really hard time putting it on the first time, and then trying to take it off the first time, I thought it was now a permanent fixture. I was really afraid I was going to break the phone from the pressure. Once I finally got it off, I couldn't get the Iron Shield case on. (The bumper is printed "Iron Shield", but it's actually "Iron Bumper" - they just use the same bumper piece for both.) I've now taken each off a couple times, and the rubber is getting more flexible now.
But yes, it will come off with some SERIOUS effort - just be careful. I have no helpful tips other than "keep trying".
I have both the verus aluminum and the spider plastic bumpers. I like the spigen one, but honestly I didn't feel like it was very protective. It just felt flimsy. The verus felt better in the had, but made the phone too wide, and also the headphones jack was super slim. I ended up taking a drill and widening it so my headphones will fit.

I had to break the Verus bumper to get it off. I will be demanding a refund.

I don't understand why everyone says the verus is hard to take off. It's tight, but not difficult. I usually start at the top and push the bumper back while moving the phone and rubber part forward.

The first time I tried to take it off, it very much felt like the phone was going to break well before the case came off.
For those having issues, what finally became a good method for me was to use a thicker (terry cloth type) microfiber cloth to get a decent grip on the top/right corner, from the front pushing the corner off to the back, and just slowly, with steady/firm pressure, push the case back. Trying to quickly force it off did nothing, but a slow firm pressure did it. Then once that slid off, repeat at the top left corner, with will come more easily.
Another issue for me with the aluminum bumpers is that I dont want it to come free of the rubber and then scratch the glass (unlikely) or the phone's aluminum edge (far more likely).
I picked up a "Xuenair" branded silver aluminium bumper from eBay. It looks great, the buttons feel good, and the cutouts are perfect. Unfortunately though, it kills my GPS. Interesting enough, the cellular signal only degrades by 2-4 dbm at home.
I do use GPS quite often though.. so eBay refund process I go.

Does that bumper have anything to keep the camera off of a table surface when setting it down? (I assume you got the thin bare metal one that latches on.)

I do indeed have the thin metal one with a latch on the bottom right corner. To answer your question though, no, my camera unfortunately still remains in contact with the surface when it's laying down. I'm not too concerned about it since I have a tiny PET film lens protector, but it definitely could scratch the paint still.
Got it ! Very Elegant !

Hello,
I've come across this case on ebay, which is a bumper + gorilla glass back cover from what I understand.
~I can't post external links because of my post meter, so just search ebay for "Luphie Metal Bumper Gorilla Glass Cover Slim Case for Samsung Galaxy S6 /S6 Edge".
It looks amazing imo, wondering if anyone know anything about that case.
It pretty much preserves the original looks of the phone which I love, I wonder if it does protect it in case it falls though.
Metal bumpers will kill your GPS completely and (slightly) decrease your cellular signal when it's on.
I don't have this one, but I bought a different metal bumper.
I would love to hear from someone with actual experience with this case if the above statements are true. This is a pretty sweet looking case!
The Rhino Shield will do that for you ~ They have pretty high protection (4 meters free fall!) without any bulk.
You can find here: http://www.evolutivelabs.com/collections/rhino-shield-products-for-samsung-galaxy-s6
Its pre-order but they ship this week
Yes, but the RhinoShiels isn't as pretty! I still wonder about the real world use of this one.
I ordered the case the OP is referring to. I will make a thread when it arrives.
looks great, keep us posted, bro.
BTW, I have a metal bumper case, and it works well.

No they have two different products, the metal one and plastic. I have both.
Anyone has any feedback yet?
I got one of those metal bumpers for the edge. They are super nice quality. Will impact signal slightly. They look epic but are very sharp, literally. Didn't feel comfortable, but it was also the edge phone so our could have been that too.
Bought this case for $9 with a promo code. Decided to give it a shot, never heard of the brand Verus, but I always wanted an aluminum case for the S6, and for the price, heck, why not.
Turns out it the case is amazing!
First of all, the case looks fantastic, it's probably one of the nicest looking cases for the Galaxy S6 at the moment. The brushed texture of the case itself has great grip and makes this case look sleek and professional. I had a clear case before to show off the back design of the Galaxy S6, but the design of this case makes the S6 look so nice that I would actually prefer this cover rather than the naked S6 back. It's that nice!
This 2-piece set comes with an aluminum frame that covers the sides. This bumper is the best part about the case. It looks and feels exactly like the S6's bumper, and is of high quality. The volume rockers are even labeled with + and - so you know the difference. It just goes to show the quality and craftsmanship of this case. And I haven't experienced any signal loss or GPS issues while using this bumper, which is a relief!
Overall, I would highly recommend this case to anyone who wants an aluminum bumper. Verus isn't a well known brand, but after buying this case, they are just as competitive if not better than Spigen / Otterbox / Speck.
The only downside is installing the case onto your S6. It's going to be a real pain getting the aluminum bumper to perfectly be aligned with the cover. It's going to take some effort and you will struggle to get the aluminum bumper fitted exactly onto the case. I had to use hard force to push the aluminum bumper perfectly into the case, but once that's done, you'll never want to take it off. That's a small knock for what is a truly awesome case!

do not get this case if you like easily taking cases off everyday, this case bent the metal on my s6 when i was trying to remove it, its that difficult to remove

I think you'll have to await for Devil Case to come up with the goods for this. Going by my z3c experience it took over 6months from the phones availability for the case to become available (albeit not in its masses.)
DevilCase Sony Xperia Z3/Z3 Compact Aluminum Alloy Protective Bumper (Sony Z3 Compact, Black) by DevilCase http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00SUWYDSK/ref=cm_sw_r_other_udp_awd_3J4gwb9Z7EXYR
(Mind you its not rounded as such, edgy, but hands down most superior protection amongst all competitors in this category.)
For now, the Fusion Orzly @hispanico mentions above is the nicest for the limited choice you have currently. I tried this on my z3c.. Offers great protection and prevents the phone slipping drastically compared to the naked device. However I personnaly found it made the device a little too clunky for my liking. But its a great choice offering the best protection for now.
I'd like a TPU bumper, something to add some grip and protection without having to cover the rear of the phone.
If somebody knows about one, please tell me.

Sent from my E5823
Yes, that's the case. I'll try to update when I get the case. I should get it in the next couple of days.
Definitely agree. Like I mentioned in the other thread, the phone is too slippery. I like to use the phone one handed and have to balance my hand between gripping it tight enough so it doesnt slide (which is fairly tight) and keeping it loose enough that my thumb can reach the left top corner. ust over the past few days, I've noticed some strain on my hand from having to maintain the grip (not too tight, not too loose).
I have the Orzly Fusion. I wonder if I could take off the back plastic some how. It would be good to have some protrusion out the back to protect the back glass too. Ofcourse, this sounds great in my head, but I bet if I try to modify the case it will turn out ugly and ruined.

I have the same case and going to try to remove the plastic back when i get my balolo back skin. if it don't work ill just buy a new one will report back.
Thanks, I look forward to hearing. the issue I see is it will leave too much of a extra hanging over the back due to the thickness of the plastic. Unless you plan to just slice through the bumper to get the back off.

So today i recived the balolo back cover, unfortunately they messed up and made the cut outs for the z3 compact... But i cut of the top part of the cover and applied it anyway. Now to the orzly bumper, i did remove the plastic back and it does fit around the z5 pretty good. The only problem is that it's clearly not made to work just as a bumper cause it is a little bit loose around the edges, so i don't recommend removing the back but it does work
I guess they have a smaller lip in front to keep the phone from falling out the front but dont need one on the back since the backing holds the phone in.

i have that case, it feels alright, but it makes using the fingerprint scanner hard as the bumper causes the scanner to be even more depress and harder for your fingerprint to fit and be scanned easily. the buttons are just attached to the tape/cushion on the bumper and it messes with my already bad reception
also does not have a lip to protect the front of the phone in the event of the phone landing face down
Hello, everyone!
I found this nice looking metal bumper on eBay:
http://m.ebay.com/itm/281901716741?_mwBanner=1
Does anyone have any experiences with it? Does it fit well?
If nobody have this bumper: What do you think? Is there any chance that it'll scratch the edges of the 6P when installing? Regarding the back: Do you think it's a fingerprint magnet?
I would be happy about any thoughts of all kind you can share!
Thanks a lot and have a great day!
They definitely look interesting, however they look like fingerprint magnets, specially the silver one. If they're really made of smooth metal they may be very slippery and covering the phone's antennas with metal might cause signal problems.
Damn, almost worth $16 just to find out cuz the black one looks sick. Definitely probably a fingerprint magnet but looks slick af.

Had a somewhat similar case with my old Note 4. The case had a metal bumper and a glass back, absolutely stunning and didn't scratched my phone. It did, however, reduced my wifi and cell signal to unusable level, and made my GPS virtually non-functional. OP, stay away from metal bumper or cases, at least those that physically touch the phone.
On an unrelated note, I truly hope that spigen would introduce their metal neo hybrid series for our 6P. Had one with my note 4, that was truly a looker. Sleek black TPU case with textured back, surrounded by an almost visually orgasmic metal bumper that never touches the phone, preventing any signal loss.
Hi,
I'm searching for a non-metal bumper, but I want it to be as thick as possible. My goal is to protect the camera glass, I do not want it to make contact with the surface I put it on. Is there such a bumper? Thanks!

I'm afraid not. This one was my first choice, but one of the reviewers says that you can feel the camera glass hit the surface you put the phone on.
I know you said bumper and not case. but I got this Spigen Neo-Hybrid case for the same reason, and it's pretty small and does a nice job of keeping both the screen and the camera glass away from whatever surface you place the phone on.
https://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Flexible-Protection-Reinforced-Samsung/dp/B00MAWRB44
I also vote for the spigen neo, I have the metal version but the plastic is the exact same, and I can confirm the camera does not touch the surface. It's the only case i've ever used for more than a couple months. i've had both the phone and case since new.
I'm using the Verus Iron Shield case with a Spigen metal stick on kickstand attached. The Verus case protects front screen nicely and the Spigen kickstand, when mounted in the center, makes it impossible for camera lens to make contact on a flat surface.
