Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Unbelievabke durability, especially for such a low price. I love the candy shell grip, they seem to last longer than the presidio grip. The ridges on the side & back help from any slippage.

This is the second speck i have purchased. The cut out openings are perfect. I truly hope speck does not discontinue making this case.



Cons

The rubber nubs on the back are great but they don't last. The rubber rings around the speaker button, the power plug port and bottom speakers aren’t reinforced so eventually they just lose shape and split.

The entire case disintegrates with regular use within six months. I am not sure if i got a bad batch with brittle plastic or if it's a cheap clone. Do not recommend.

It fits my 8 plus, but i think it’s ridiculous to deliberately mislead customers in to thinking this is an 8 plus-specific case. I'm returning this because you can buy a better color that's an iphone 7/6/6s plus for $10-$15 less.

    Soo after almost 2 years my speck case started falling apart the rubber backing was peeling off in some places and the plastic and rubber at the bottom where you charge your phone was breaking apart

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The candy shell grip has a glossy look and a slick feel texture was slick like a plastic phone charger socket


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The lines in the back feel like a rubber charger cord obviously not as thick as a charger cord
