Presidio Perfect-Clear with Grip

This is a replacement for one just like it, which I knocked to the floor too many times. It finally developed some serious cracks but my phone was never damaged. I like that it is clear and has those raised ridges which makes easier to grip without slipping from my hand. I had problems finding this model but I did find one on Amazon. I hope Speck hasn’t dropped this from their line. I’m sure I will need another someday.

literally the best case ever made i refuse to buy any other case, no matter how many times i drop my phone it never breaks. i’m on my 3rd case, the only reason i buy new ones is because they do get brown over time.

This review is after 2 1/2 years of heavy use and TONS of drops, some of which made me freeze in place, holding my breath and just KNOWING I had killed my phone. The case is superb for protection. Nary a scratch or any other damage on my phone. It is definitely a non-yellowing case in back, but the softer buttons and front bezel, which are made of a slightly softer plastic, did slowly start to yellow after about 2 years. It took the full 2 1/2 years for it to become annoying. My one disappointment: The tons of drops happened because this case is not at all grippy and my hands lose grip easily sometimes. Yes, there are ridges, but they’re made of hard plastic and don’t help with grip except perhaps on the sides a tiny, tiny bit. Speck is known for its rubber grippy cases, and it was hard to tell from pictures and description that this was not one of those cases. The ones with color, listed together with the clear case, DID have rubber grips. So I thought this one would too. Wrong! Conclusion: if you want protection and like the color of your phone, buy it! If you need extra grip (like me), get a different case.

I chose this product for the protection factor alone. After using it I also found it to be very stylish and comfortable. This was also made so that it is easily gripped, which makes your phone slipping out of your hand virtually impossible! I'm SO glad that I chose this case for my expensive iPhone and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this product!

I have dropped my phone (on accident) too many times and this case has held up and kept my phone safe! Definitely worth it.

A month or two after the intro of the iPhone 13 I decided to buy an iPhone 11 and needed a case. I would have bought a Speck Presidio in blue/black if it had still been available. I didn't want black, and decided that since I couldn't get the blue/black one that I liked, that I might as well get a clear case. I narrowed the choice down to the Presidio Perfect Clear and the VANMASS clear case. Since trying to find either locally would be out of the question, I ordered both with the realization that I would have to choose one without opening the other so that I could return the one I didn't want to keep. Or maybe I would get lucky and it would be possible to open and inspect both, being very careful not to get either one dirty or scratch either one. Well, I got lucky. It was a difficult decision for a half hour or so. The Speck Presidio Perfect Clear was made from a much harder plastic. This made it more difficult to get on and off the phone, but I thought that it would probably be better from the standpoint of protection. And it was slightly more compact, mainly in terms of the front-to-back thickness, where the VANMASS is ever so slightly thicker because of a more pronounced protective rim on the back side. When looking at the pictures I thought that I would like the looks of the VANMASS better, but once I was able to see them in person and hold them in my hand, it was the opposite. But not a huge difference. The major difference, for the first half hour, was that very slight difference in thickness. But then I began to increasingly notice the difference in slippery-ness. The Speck Presidio Perfect-Clear is much, much more slippery than the VANMASS. The ridges don't really make any difference, because the plastic is fairly hard. The clear plastic used in the VANMASS, on the other hand, was just soft enough to feel more secure and more comfortable in my hand. I was leaning in that direction. Then I sat down at my desk and sat the phone down on the desk. I could not help but notice that the Speck Presidio Perfect-Clear did not like to stay put. For me this was annoying because when using the phone at my desk, when making a call or for any other reason, I like for there to be a little bit of friction between the phone and the surface of the desk. With the Speck Presidio Perfect-Clear, it was almost like an air-hockey puck on an air hockey table. Well, that's obviously an exaggeration, but the point is that there wasn't much friction there at all, due to the hard plastic. In fact, with the VANMASS I would have liked more friction, but at least I could tolerate it, whereas the more I experimented with the Speck Presidio Perfect-Clear at my desk, the more annoying it became because of the ease with which it will slide around when unintentionally disturbed in the least. Touching the USB cable caused the phone to move. This ended up being the deciding factor. I have no idea whether the VANMASS will still be perfectly clear a year down the road. That remains to be seen, however for now, the VANMASS is the clear winner for me.

I love the sleek look and cool of this case. It was hard to push the side buttons for the first couple weeks but eventually has become a lot easier with time and use. Installed a pop socket to help with grip and use for watching videos.

This phone case is my favorite ever! Love the simplicity of the clear case design which showcases the pretty mint green color of my phone, and the geometric lines of the grip feature truly enhances the aesthetic. The case is compatible with wireless charging which is great, and also makes you really appreciate the grip aspect since wireless charging means no more pop socket in my book

Another great speck iPhone protector. I like that it is see through to show the colour of the phone.

Très déçu par la version clear de cette coque. Je suis fan de la version noire et j’ai donc voulu commander la version transparente… Mais , glisse dans la main … beaucoup trop rigide … les boutons ne fonctionnent pas du tout à moins d’appuyer comme un malade … Bref très déçu

Bought this for my 13yr old who just got an iphone. I know 13?! Anyways, if the phone can survive my 13 yr old boy with this case then I think anyone else is safe.

Il've always liked Speck phone cases and have had many of their products for my phone. This case is quite durable and will definitely protect your phone and I love the it's clear and I can see the colour of my phone... but because the case is so hard, I find it difficult to close my screen or turn off my phone because the hard exterior also extends to the buttons. Many times when using my phone to pay I've actually turn off my screen. A little frustrating.

Purchased this clear case knowing it would have rubber grips as advertised. NOT !!!! I have 3 other case in different colors ( same brand, same model , identical design ) so I decided to buy the clear model. No rubber grips. I have contacted Speck directly and they REFUSED to take responsibility, and refused to exchange the case for another color. Very Disappointed in their customer service. I'll make sure my 230k followers will love this one.
