Review: Stop everything (yes, breathing too) and buy this case now - Wow, is this really my first review ever? Yes it is. Like most of us, I've bought dozens of cases over the years for my iPhone (dating back to the old 3G days). I bought this Red/grey Speck case for my new iPhone 8 Plus, it is my 3rd Speck case (I bought 2 others for my 6 +). I firmly believe the Speck case is the BEST case for the iPhone. It touches on all the important design and engineering areas a case (IMO) should have: ruggedness, grip, functionality, appearance. I give it 5 stars in every area. While buzzed (on alcohol) I gesticulated wildly (with my iPhone 6 + in hand, in the case) sending flight to my phone maybe 10 feet on to the concrete. It was unscathed. The case did its job. I've also dropped my iPhone on to the carpet or concrete by accident from 3-4' and the case did its job each time. I swear I am not severely accident prone, i'm just excited about life. But I digress. The case has literally saved my phone many times. Grip: the rubberized grip is very HANDY (oh yea, pun intended people), and the phone feels safe and solid. Size/function: the case is rugged but doesn't feel like a massive brick (like the Otterbox). It's toight like a tiger and hugs the phone like a long lost relative: tight and close. All ports are easily accessible and you can charge through the case (if you have an 8 or X), as long as you don't also have a magnet on the inside of the case. Looks: I love the red. It's not a bright, primary color looking red. It's stealthy and fashionable, not overly masculine or feminine IMO. So yea, it's a great case and 100% worth the money.
Review: Lasted over a year - I purchased this case in July 2018. I was looking at getting the same case when I get the iphone 11 and realized that I've never had a case last this long and I should probably add a review for it. I have had this case on my iphone 7+ for over a year now. By the time I bought this case I had already gone through a bunch of other cases. It has protected my phone from a lot of drops and there is no damage to my phone. I work in a warehouse and most of the drops were onto concrete floor. The grip on the side makes the phone easier to hold which is why I got the case, I know I have a tendency to drop my phone, but with this case it's not because it's slippery, it's just because that's what I do. The bezel is raised enough that if you lay your phone screen down, the glass is protected from the surface it's laying on, as well as the back bezel protecting the camera. The case itself is still very solid. I just noticed that there are some small cracks in the corners, but it still seems very sturdy. The important part is that there's no damage to my phone. The bezel has split at the bottom just above where the charger plugs in, but it happened very recently and I don't feel like my phone is any less protected. The grip looks dingy at this point, which doesn't bother me. It's partially from a pair of dark wash jeans that rubbed off onto it and stained it, and from dusty hands and from being in pockets and purses.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Only one I buy
*by R***N on March 17, 2019*

I've used Speck for years, and I just purchased my 5th or 6th case. I have a iPhone 6s+, and I've added the XS Max. My wife has the 7+, we also have it in a Speck. The cases are always a perfect fit, and durable enough for the price. They are not indestructible, but usually I can get several years of life. Because I travel internationally, I take the phone out to switch the sim card. doing that so often really puts a burden on the case, and it starts failing on the corners and around the soft points, like the button areas. What I really like about the case: the rubberized fins provide excellent grip. It will not come out of my pocket, or slide around on the table. The protection is great. I've dropped my phone, and kicked it across the room, on three continents. I could not be happier with the protection. Of course, I always add the glass protector, too. I love how the buttons are tactile. I can silence the alarm, or the ringer in the dark, or without having to look. I really like that. As long as these guys continue to build this kind of quality, I will continue to buy them!
