Presidio CLEAR

I’ve had this case for right at 6 months now, so I felt it was time to do a proper review.This case will absolutely protect from drops.It has a hard outer shell with a firm yet forgiving inner layer. I’ve dropped my phone more times than I can remember, off my workbench on to concrete, in parkinglots, down stairs, dropped while skateboarding, you name it. Im rough with my stuff, yet my phone still looks brand new, screen hasn’t cracked, and functionality is perfect.Now the case itself has taken a lot of damage, but that is to be expected. It has dents and dings on the corners, and scratches on the back. But that’s exactly what the case is meant for, it absorbed the damage and protects the phone.Now the case did yellow a bit. This started after a 3 day trip to schlitterbahn where I had my *waterproof* iPhone 8+ in my pocket without any extra protection. I went down water slides, tube chutes, hot tubs, every ride they had, and even lost my phone briefly in the wave pool. (The iPhone did fine underwater btw)After that trip the inner layer of the case started yellowing, I assume from the chlorine in the pools reacting in some way, but the protection the case provides never faultered.I also keep my phone on a dash mount during my commute which is about 2 hours a day, and I’m sure the roughly 400 hours it has spent in direct sunlight played a role in the yellowing.All in all, it’s just asthetic and not a big deal in my book. Can still obviously see my red phone through the case.Lastly- the piece that goes above the charger port broke off about a week ago, which also isn’t a big deal, especially with how hard I’ve been on this case.I bought a new one to show the side by side difference in the attached pictures.The only caveat that I didn’t like at first is how slick the case is, but I got used to it quickly and is makes retrieving it from my pocket easy.All things considered, I highly recommend this case. It does exactly what it’s meant to, and I don’t even flinch anymore when my phone drops.

I'm on my second one now. After a year or so, on my last one, the color became less transparent with a little bit of a brown tint to it. It was nothing that distracted from my rose colored iPhones appearance. I needed to replace my previous one, after 2 years, because enough plastic had fallen off between the silence and volume switches that it seemed like a good time. It still protected my phone very well at that point. During the 2 years, I dropped the phone about 20 times onto concrete/asphalt and probably another 20 in the house. I'm not real cautious with my phone probably because of this case. I don't have a single scratch or dent on my phone. It offers superior protection largely for 3 big reasons: 1) the lip around the front face protrudes 2 - 3mm above the face (so the face of my phone hasn't made contact with the ground), 2) the material offers a very nice impact absorption, 3) the material stretches temporarily when the phone hits the ground with an awkward spin. I know this because sometimes the case looks a little loose and out of position after one of those spinning drops (where my second hand tried catching the phone as it fell, but just knocked it into a spin). I'll buy this cover again in 2 years.

This case is overall great. It’s very sturdy and good looking. Every transparent case gets yellow with time, this one takes extra long. Had it for two years, got yellow, bought the same new one. Happy again. Wouldn’t put it on rigid surfaces thought. It gets scratched sometimes. With prolonged use the rubber gets shaded at the spots where hand sits, but that will happen o any case. This one lasted for two years. More then happy.

I totally didn’t think of this prior to purchasing or I would have purchased a different colored Speck Phone Case.This case is kind of difficult to get on and off of the phone. I actually haven’t been able to get it off. Which usually is fantastic. It means it’s well built and a snug fit, for better protection. Which is why I can’t be upset about it.BUT we have a cute little pug dog. She is brindle and doesn’t she’s hardly at all. But she snuggles my little kids and I a lot. And After a couple weeks I have several pug dog hairs trapped in the back of my phone case. It’s driving me crazy. If you don’t have a dog or cat that sheds, this likely will not be an issue for you.This is my third iPhone Speck case I have had (each for different phones), and I do not plan on EVER buying another brand of phone case. I have a 2 & 4 year old. Unfortunately, they are pretty tough on certain household items. They always think my phone needs to be with me, so if I leave it they bring it or throw it to me. It has been dropped well over one hundred times. My last one after two years of use finally had a small break from wear and tear just under the home button. It was an irritating spot. But it was an insanely well used case. I always recommend Speck cases to everyone I know.

Love this case. Reliable brand. This is my second identical case. Had several drops with my last case and my phone was always protected so well!The rubbery cushiony later discolored to a light grayish yellow after about four months, but I’m not unhappy, not very noticeable, and I like this case enough to deal with it anyhow.Love the simplicity of the clear case. Great sleek, no frills design. Not easy to find a slim, clear case that is still protective!

Really nice I have gotten a few scratches on the back from a sharp rock but besides that it is really great a little bit bulky but is a great kiss I’ve use this case for a few months now and it’s great all buttons work with ease and even though I drop my phone many many many times a day I have never had a problem with the back glass breaking I have had many screen protector is broken but the back glass is always stayed in perfect condition on my iPhone 8 plus I drop my phone off a balcony a good 10 feet onto grass and it was OK.
