The ZeroLemon Protector for iPhone 6 Plus is a good quality case that offers significant protection without breaking the bank. In fact, at $10.99 on Amazon.com, it is an absolute steal.  

Pros:
* Nice build quality: everything fits together well.  
* Port openings: The port covers for the lightning and headphone ports are easy to open and close and all the port openings are well positioned and well sized.  
* Clicky buttons: The volume and sleep/wake buttons are covered and nicely clicky. 
* Camera opening: the hole for the camera is a good size and is lined with black to prevent flash issues.
* Grippy exterior: the TPU rubber is grippy without being a lint magnet.
* Pleasant, secure hand feel.
* Holster converts to a stand: many people might not have a need for a holster for their iPhone, but might want to use a stand.  It’s nice that ZeroLemon’s holster has a dual purpose.

Cons:
* Port cover for the mute switch is extremely hard to open and the opening is rather deep once opened.  I could operate it OK, but someone with large fingers might have more difficulty.
* Inner polycarbonate shell does not feel as robust as the inner shell on cases such as the Griffin Survivor Slim—the plastic just feels a little cheap.  However, once the thick TPU rubber shell has been put on, you no longer feel the inner plastic, so it becomes a relative non-issue.

Overall, I’m quite impressed with this case.  I received it at around the same time as a review sample of the Amzer Crusta case, and in comparing the two, the ZeroLemon Protector comes out quite well.  In fact, the only area where the Amzer Crusta definitively beats out the ZeroLemon Protector is in the quality of the included screen protector: the Crusta comes with a tempered glass screen protector, while the Protector only comes with a PET plastic screen protector.  However, it is important to note that the Crusta is currently priced at $45, while the Protector is priced at $10.99 :-) And I prefer the feel of the ZeroLemon Protector as well.
