I've had my Ottorbox for a year and a half and I've dropped my phone soooo many times. I kid you not my phone drops at least 5 times a day. I swear my best friend cursed me a long time ago when I made fun of her for always dropping her phone. Anyways, I dropped my phone so much my ottorbox had the corners missin and eventually like 1/4 of it broke. Don't get me wrong that ottorbox did its thing. But it was time for a new case and I wanted something inexpensive but cute and not basic. This phone case was Heaven sent. It's slim, sooooooo pretty especially when the light shines, the phone sparkles. I just feel so classy lol. But I definitely have dropped this phone from questionable heights with the case, on its back, side and face and the case has no scratches and neither does my phone. I don't have a screen protector and I swear this phone has dropped from the top of my car to the street and I thought my phone was done for. I did question its sturdiness and whether or not it would work for me because of how often I drop my phone. I was hesitant to buy because it was a lot thinner than my eyes ottorbox but I gave it a go and I love it. No problems til this day (knock on wood)

This product looks so great on my gold iPhone

This product looks so great on my gold iPhone! It is very elegant looking and I would definitely recommend.

I have no problems with the case being "slippery." Obviously I drop it but that's because I'm a huge klutz, not the case. Thanks to the case I drop it pretty frequently with no damage so far. It's hard to find a case that is fabulous and protective but this one is both! But make sure you buy a fiberglass screen protector -- if your phone drops at an angle where the screen is directly hit it will break and that's not the case's fault.

Most of the complaints in the comments are from people who buy this case meant for the gold iPhone and put it on a different colored phone. It looks ugly on other colored phones but perfect on the gold one. They sell other colors for the different colored phones.

I like this case and disagree about certain things that other reviewers didn't like about it.

I read a bunch of reviews of this case and I agree with some points other reviewers made and disagree on other points. Here's my take...

I have the Matte Black iPhone 7 and originally bought the clear Presidio case as I normally like clear cases that show the backside of the phone. As others have stated, the clear case is not crystal clear but rather has a frosted look to it. Totally would not recommend the clear case for the Jet Black or the Matte Black iPhone 7. Did not like how the clear case looked on my phone and purchased the Onyx Black case for my phone instead. To me, the Onyx Black matches my phone's finish pretty well and I'm happy with how it looks. But I would still not recommend the Onyx Black case for the Jet Black iPhone as it'll hide the phone's polished finish.

As far as putting my phone in the case, it literally took me a few seconds to put the case on and maybe a few seconds longer to take the case off. I have no idea why other reviewers had such a hard time putting the case on and taking it off. The case also seems like it'll provide good protection of my phone. Again, I have always chosen very minimalistic cases in the past and the Presidio case is by far the most protective case I've owned. I have never had a Speck case before, so I have no comparison if this case isn't as well constructed as previous versions. It seems well constructed to me.

I also read that others have complained that the case is very slippery. I don't find that to be so. Both versions of the Presidio clear case have a tactile feel to me and provide a decent grip, in my opinion. Maybe other reviewers have really sweaty hands? Haha. I find the phone to be much slipperier without the case on it.

So I recommend the Presidio case for people that want a minimal case with good protection.

this case is exactly as i expected it to be. it fits very snug on my SE (3rd gen) leaving no room for it to fall off. it seems durable. it doesn’t make the buttons any harder to press and i can fit the charger i already have in just fine, which is a struggle for some other cases i’ve had. all in all good product, i would recommend! :)

Replacing case after 3 years

I bought this case back in 2017, and today I'm reordering it.

Why? It's kept my phone safe from some pretty heard drops. In fact, all of the corners of the case have their cracks, and like a good bike helmet, should be replaced once it cracks.

My only complaint, is that the rubber seems to oxidize and turns a rusty red color, making the case look dirty. And a protective film on the case will eventually rub/peel off. The rubber might tear in some spots, like at the charging port, but for the longest time was of no concern to me.

I'm still reordering it, because despite the dinginess, my phone has survived a lot many years with this case, and I'm hoping to get a few more years out of it!

This is my 2nd Speck sparkle case and they're great. Had my previous one for over a year and it protected my phone really well. Will buy a 3rd one for sure when the time comes.

Les enfants ne sont pas souvent les plus précautionneux... Quand nous avons acheté à notre fille de 11 ans son premier téléphone, j'ai tout de suite su quelle marque de coque prendre. La marque Speck m'a toujours donné satisfaction et a bien protégé mes mobiles. Avec une vitre complémentaire (livrée avec dans mon cas alors que je ne crois pas que ce fut spécifié dans les descriptions du produit), la petite dispose d'un carcan solide pour son iPhone 7. La technologie de protection des coins fait la différence avec les autres marques. On est vraiment dans du qualitatif. Je recommande.

Schöne Hülle

Reviewed in Germany on January 16, 2019

Die Hülle ist prinzipiell sehr schön, allerdings ist sie nicht so durchsichtig wie sie auf dem Foto erscheint. Deshalb fand ich sie etwas "zu golden". Die Hülle ist etwas breiter und bietet daher aber besseren Schutz für das Handy als viele andere Hüllen
