Perhaps not in the category mentioned: "first Made for iPhone licensed battery cases for Apple's iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus"
I can only imagine how much bigger this makes the iphone 6+. Damn.

It's all in the wording....
Great.
Now all the crybabies about the iPhone6 battery and protruding camera can shut the hell up.
And those crybabies have had such a negative impact on iPhone sales too. Not! This is the Internet in the 21st century. Every crybaby, screwball, troll, critic, sad-sack, Debbie Downer, glass-half-empty nincompoop thinks they can influence the company or hurt it with their negativity. Well they can’t and that makes them irrelevant and laughable.
