The seidio nexus 6 "bare device" holster will fit the 6p plus a thin case of you use a heat gun on the tabs gently until they are malleable, then push in the phone so the two tabs at the bottom flare out to fit the 6p.
I did this today and find that the spigen thin fit and the vostrostone ultra thin cases fit nicely in it.
I used a heat gun set to 800f and heated for about 20s... Until the slightly pebbled holster surface gained a sheen, then pushed the phone plus case down to the bottom of the holster to reshape the tabs.
Good job.... I have been looking hard at my N6 naked case holder to see if there was a way to get a better fit for N6... I do not use a case on any phone but this post gave me some ideas...along the same line. Tax

So ever since I owned my Evo 4G, I have found a kickstand an invaluable part of my daily phone use. Most phones don't come with them so I am always looking for a good kickstand case. Sadly, most of kickstand cases are not to my liking as they are either too thick, cover the sides but not the top and bottom of the phone, etc. The Seidio Surface w/kickstand for the S4 comes close but I don't like the cutouts for the buttons. It just feels awkward trying to push the buttons as I wish Seidio had covered them with TPU or silicone. My favorite non-kickstand cases are definitely the Diztronic TPU cases as they are very slim, fit perfectly, use high quality TPU, very reasonably priced, and provide good protection from everyday wear and tear. If only there was some way to add a kickstand to the Diztronic, this would be my perfect case.
So I then came across the following video where the guy added a Seidio kickstand to an Otterbox commuter and I figured I could do the same to my Diztronic case.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCb1jNmdS4s
So here is what I did:
1. Found the cheapest Seidio Surface with kickstand I could. Turns out it was a purple version made for the One X+. $8 with free Prime shipping on Amazon. Perfect.
2. I extracted the kickstand by simply pulling back the felt and popping the kickstand out.
3. Used the bottom half of the Seidio case (which now has an empty/vacant slot where the kickstand use to be) and positioned it inside the Diztronic TPU case.
4. Using a sharpie, I utilized the empty kickstand mold to trace the outline of the kickstand onto the inside of the Diztronic.
5. Used an exacto knife to cut out the outline I just traced onto the inside of the Diztronic. This left a hole/gap just the right size for the kickstand.
6. I slipped the kickstand in and secured it with black electrical tape.
7. Put my modified Diztronic case onto my S4 and done!
The kickstand is very secure and props the phone up perfectly in landscape mode. Its slim, covers all sides of the phone, has a nice lip, and buttons are easy to push. Glad to finally have my perfect kickstand case!
Wow.
Great work. I'm with you in that I love the Diztronic cases, but I would for sure mess this up haha.

I came across this case on Amazon while looking through the myriad of styles out there and came across the PureGear Slim Shell. I was looking for a slim design that had a bit of grip and didn't break the bank. The Spigen Neo case looked nice, but I bought a white phone and didn't want to cover it up with a black back. It also cost $20 more than this one did through Amazon. It's a hard shell case with medium grip rubber surrounding the case. The lip around the top is made from the same rubber. The lip is about 1/16" which is typical for slim cases. The cutouts are well placed and centered up. The buttons are a tad stiff, but they are hours old, so that should change with some use. The back was 3 small standoffs so the back isn't scratched up when set down. The phone fits in snug and it feels good in the hand and pocket. I don't have much experience with cases, but I am happy with this one and would recommend it for sure.
+1 for the review effort.
So my plan was to get the slimmest case I could for Verizon note 4. On my note 3 I had the incipio feather case (loved it-although little protection).
Got my note 4 and no readily available cases. Went naked for a week. Ordered the spigen thin fit (incipio feather not available?).
Got it (no mic hole issues as it is open on bottom). It is a bit slippery but is exactly like feather case. Very very annoying how ever-increasing does squeak when put pressure on sides - clearly mold only 95% accurate...
Now this is the slimmest case out there.... And I am so missing carrying this phone naked. The Samsung back feels so grippy and nice. Amazing how even this thin case adds noticeable bulk.
Starting to get contaminated with "this thin fit case doesn't protect much anyway.....
This phone naked is the bomb. Anyone routinely not case phone and have success.? I saw someone yesterday with note 3 looked like a banged up car on sides. Slapped the spigen back on. Hahaha
As an aside, waiting for the official Samsung protective cover - may be a good solution. But, sold out on Samsung site..... Anyone have this one? No video reviews that I can find.
For the squeaking, just put strips of masking or electrical tape on both sides of the inside of the case. Silly that you have to do anything, but this is a solution.

The UAG caes are really good cases and look real good also
I just ordered the led one. I like the UAG, damda or the protective cover for when I need more protection

I've actually been rocking my Verus Iron Shield without the metal frame for about a week... I really like it that way. It's quite a bit less bulky and kind of seems like the Samsung Protective Cover, but it's quite a bit more protective and I think that the TPU that Verus used feels better. I actually printed up some "carbon fiber patterned" strips on adhesive vinyl decal paper to wrap around the bezel (of the case). I think it looks and feels super nice that way
More like top 25 dude can't count lmao
i get a lot of compliments from people when they see my copper gold caseology case.. especially since i work at bestbuy and you already know what their choices look like lol

Sounds snazzy. Any chance of some pics?
Spigen does not have any place on this list. Their cases have a horrible design around the heart rate monitor that makes it practically useless. Replace Spigen with UAG and you have a pretty good list.

1 000 000 000 times AGREE!
The only cases I would look at are the Verus cases...
Which case(s) is best is completely subjective as it's based on how much protection you want vs. how much bulk you're comfortable with & which features you want.
For me I must have maximum protection, a kickstand, covered rocker switches, USB & headphone dust covers & a belt clip holster. The Otterbox Defender has all those features & IMO is a very well designed & high quality piece. You just need to remove the plastic screen protector & use something else.
After using the Defender for several months my phone edges/corners are not scratched as reported on this forum by several other users.
I need a holster for work , and every time a new nexus comes out I put up with the fact that I am going to have to buy a few case / holster combos to find something that works for me. For this phone I think I have found the perfect combo. The Spigen Rugged Armor and the Seidio iPhone 6S+ Dilex Holster. Before I made the purchase I found a few people with iPhone 6S+ phones and compared the size with the 6P. They were so close I figured I could use a 6S+ holster. I ordered the Seidio Dilex because it is a good holster and I have the Dilex case / holster combo for my Nexus 6, which I like.
This fits really well, almost like it is made for it. There is absolutely no slop or wiggle when the case is clamped in and it passes the shake test without moving a bit. The side flange is below the power button, so it does not inadvertently turn off your phone when you sit down with it (I am talking to you Nexus 6 Seidio Dilex case). An added bonus is that the phone will actually go into the case screen out, something the rounded back Nexus 6 got me used to not having. I don't wear it this way, but it is nice to have it screen out if it is sitting on the desk.
This is a pricey holster ($23.99 on Amazon), but if you need a holster (you know who you are) then you should give this one a shot. I have heard that Seidio is going to be coming out with Nexus 6P cases, but I honestly prefer the Spigen cases to the Seidio cases anyway, all I need from Seidio is a holster.
I had pretty much the same idea/combo on my Nexus 5. Spigen Rugged Armor case and a HTC EVO LTE Dilex holster. This is very tempting.
it's hard to tell from the pics, but does the clamp sit flush on the phone? i tried the iphone 6+ surface holster and the clamp stayed open just a touch, making me nervous that it would release at some point inadvertently with just the slightest brush against it

Here are some side profiles with the holster empty and the close up of the clamp on the phone. I wish I was taking these with the Nexus 6P because they would be a lot sharper! The clamp holds it really well.
I also did a quick shake test with the holster and put it on Youtube. Forgive the lack of effort in the video!

yep that's a perfect fit alright. thanks!
Thanks for the heads up. Just ordered mine on Amazon. Saved $6 than buying it direct from Seidio, and the Prime Seller offered another 5% off
