decent cell phone case for the price.......had a lot of issues with bubbles on the screen after installing, some still there few days later, but ok

Nice for a couple weeks until my daughter droped it a couple times

I just got an iPhone 6 and was looking for a good case. I've been an Otterbox user for years on iPhone and this version's phone with the bendable back made me even more likely to go back. But I really wanted to try something thinner and maybe a little more custom (Otterbox has a look, you know.# Happily, I got a couple cases to try from Speck including this one, the MightyShell and the faceplate that goes with the CandyShell. Here are my thoughts: -/+ The CandyShell is too slippery for my tastes. This phone is already really thin and a slippery case just adds to my likelihood of dropping it. Obviously this is a preference thing and I've had smooth cases that I've liked in the past. So this is up to you. Just be aware that this is a glossy case without a lot of grip. If you want more grip there is a version of the CandyShell with grip lines in the back. -/+ Like many reviewers point out it does has a little bit of a center back bulge that allows the phone to spin or wobble when placed back down. Now, I spin my cases anyway - nervous habit, I guess - so that doesn't bug me. But I do want it to sit flat. Unlike other reviewers this didn't bother me. I only set the phone down when I wasn't using it or watching videos and as long as I wasn't typing it didn't wobble. - I can see the seams in the case. This is a bummer, really, as there is a noticeable seam all along the sides and back edges where the case was put together in production. It's a flaw. + The military specs are legit. I dropped the case a lot to check it out. I like the shock absorbion displayed. There is a lip around the glass and the case covers all the corners really well. I trust that it will hold up for normal drops. #Nothing is 100%). However, I felt a perception barrier comparing this to a fully covered phone case like an Otterbox. NOTE: The CandyShell cases have an option at Speck's website and some other sites where you can but a full front piece that covers the screen and also has a lip edge around the front. Personally, if I were buying the CandyShell I'd buy the version with the front cover. Also, if you are concerned about the structural protection of this case you could go with the MightyShell, which offers 2x the military spec protection. + Speck's cases and pieces are interchangeable. Personally, I liked the MightShell protection better but I really liked the CandyShell front piece and they worked together and fit together perfectly. + The CandyShell looks great and is really thin. If your thing is thin this is a great case that stays thin with strong protection. If you are looking for different colors and a sleeker look I think Speck does a great job with color combinations. I tried out a light pink and seafoam CandyShell and a magenta and hot pink MightyShell. There are a ton of great colors available. Overall, Speck's cases are good looking and provide thin, but strong protection. I prefer the MightyShell over the CandyShell because of feel of the case and the protection rating. I like the CandyShell front faceplate with both. Speck makes good cases and the prices are really good for the quality and protection. Samples of these products were provided by the manufacturer for review.

I needed a new look for my phone. I wanted something that would protect my screen too and have not had good luck with the otter box or lifeproof for their prices. This was great because not only was the price great it was exactly what I was looking for. I would buy another one if I need it.
