This Speck Candy Shell case is great. The hard cover isn't as bulky as an Otter Box, but still seems to offer a great deal of protection and the stark Black color looks great. It was a phenomenal deal for the price paid!!

Just what I wanted. This case adds protection while allowing compete function. Doesn't slip out of my hands like some do. Color is deep and brilliant. You will love it.

I've always loved SPECK - CANDYSHELL cases. They aren't too bulky and they never interfere with things that I want to accessorize my phone with (i.e. phone plugs, screen protectors). The only thing that bothers me is that the color part seems to like to become the color of my jeans (because I keep my phone in my back pocket a lot) and the part that crosses over the charging port (where the main button is) seems like it would rip off easily. STILL LOVE THIS CASE THOUGH.

The case was bought for my teenage daughter's phone. She loves the light weight for such a protective case. She's bounced it off our tile floor twice and dropped it next to the car where it slid down the hill for several feet. Not only did the phone survive, the case idn't even scratched. Great product!

I was tired of spending over $50 for cases for phones. found this case for under $20 and even comes with a soft rubber protection as well. Dropped phone a few times already. No problems.

I looked at several cases for my Samsung Galaxy S5 and liked the way this fit the phone. Protects the edges yet all the buttons function easily.

This is the second case I have bought for m wife's Galaxy S5. It is well worth the money. My kids have manhandled it, thrown the phone on the ground multiple times and the case has taken the worst of it. It did start to crack around the edges of the case after a bit of abuse, but the cost of buying the case twice is far better than replacing the phone.

Would recommend to anyone, phone case is not big and bulky yet does the same amount of protection as if it was an Outer. For those who live an active always on the go lifestyle and puts phone in backpacks, purses and those who go to the gym this suits all activities. No complaints yet. I have already purchased two. One for my S4 and S5. Drop it don't worry, wet it don't worry. You'll be good!

Its a very nice case, and I really like the colors. White and a mint green go so great together, my only problem is it is a little bit flimsy. Don't get me wrong it is a sturdy case, but like the title says, its no otterbox. I compared my otterbox to this case and it was an obvious difference. But this case is still sturdy and stylish. Defintely reccommend to someone for just looks. Dont drop it off a building though.

When I first wanted to get a Speck case, they didn't make the model I wanted in this color, so I went to color over model. I am very happy with the purchase as the phone case seems to be doing its job, protecting my phone. I'm not sure if it actually protects the phone, but after a couple drops, the phone still seems to be alright.

I drop my phone all the time so I needed the extra protection on my phone. I find I don't drop my phone near as much because the material is easy to grip. It also didn't add a lot of bulk to the phone.

I brought this case to protect my investment, so far it's doing what it was intended, protecting against drops, I like the grip and slim look, my only issue is the black shiny finish scratches easily, I'm very satisfied with my purchase!

This case cost my $15. I have dropped the phone numerous times from varying heights, and the case has absorbed the blow every time.
Every now and then the phone will unseat from the case, and requires a little adjustment to pop it back in.
Downside is that the black case scratches super easy. So the back is covered in scratches and scuff marks.

I previously had a thin case that started to crack after several drops. Reluctantly, I needed to get a new case. This case isn't as thin as my previous case. It also makes my phone heavier and slightly bulkier. However, it appears to be much sturdier and better at protecting the phone.
