  Stylish Protection for Your iPhone!

  The Speck Presidio Grip iPhone Xr Case provides great security and protection for your treasured, but somewhat fragile, iPhone. With iPhones now costing $1,000+ it is very prudent to add a protective barrier around your phone to minimize the chance of damage when you inevitably drop it. The bigger iPhones (like the Xr and the Xs Max) are much more likely to pop out of your hand while using it. This Speck Presidio Grip case is certified to protect your iPhone Xr from damage in the very sad event of a ten foot fall! The Speck Presidio line of cases is noted for its thinness, protective qualities and outstanding durability. Speck is a premier manufacturer of protective electronic equipment cases which was founded in San Mateo, California in 2001. It was acquired by Samsonite in 2014 and has won numerous product design awards. Here are the key features of this great case: • Speck Presidio Grip iPhone Xr case • Two (integrated) layers of protection molded together • Polycarbonate outer shell provides unbreakable protective perimeter • Inner Impactium lining gives additional shock protection by compressing on impact to absorb and disperse shock • No-slip angled raised rubber ridges on back insure secure grip • Raised bezel around screen protects glass from shattering or scratching • Certified to withstand repeated 10 foot drops • Designed to support Qi wireless charging • Material will not interfere with phone reception • Form fitting: 7.9 x 4.2 x 0.8 inches • Lightweight: 2.9 ounces • Lifetime warranty Installation is very easy. The case snaps around the iPhone Xr with very little effort. Once on, it is very secure and will not easily come off. The case is surprisingly thin and does not add significantly to the bulk of the iPhone Xr. The full front surface of the screen is still accessible after the case has been installed. The appearance is very clean and there is no obnoxious brand name on it, just a stylish little asterisk (the Speck logo.) The matt finish of the black case is non-reflective and is designed to resist discoloration from heat, sunlight and chemicals. Speck backs up the case with a lifetime warranty, so you can be assured that it will last longer than your phone! Once the case was installed I noticed that my grip on the phone was much more secure, thanks to the raised rubber ridges on the back. The iPhone still easily slides into the front pocket of my jeans. But the raised ridges are an added security feature which may prevent the phone from accidently slipping out if you carry your phone in your shirt or jacket pocket. The design cleverly protects the screen with a raised bezel which should keep your screen from impacting on hard surfaces if you drop it. It is still possible to crack your screen but you would have to hit an angled surface (like a rock) for the screen to make contact. I suggest installing a protective glass screen over your iPhone’s screen for added security. I had no issues with charging my phone wirelessly and I did like the fact that the ridges made it less likely that I would accidently knock my phone off the charging pad and onto the floor. The only drawback (and it is a minor one) is that the nice yellow color of my phone is now visible only as a tiny sliver of color around the camera lens. Speck does make a clear case but it is not as highly rated for drop protection as this one, nor does it have the raised anti-slip ridges. I am delighted to give this great iPhone case my full and enthusiastic recommendation! Buy it and slip your precious iPhone Xr into it before you say oops!

  Grippy, Rugged, Slim and Protective!

  • Tech Insider Network Member

  This is now hands down my all time favorite iPhone case. I purchased about 5 other cases for the iPhone XR before getting my hands on the Presidio Grip case and I can honestly say that this is the best of the bunch. It is slim yet rugged and protective. The grooves on the sides of the case make the case very grippy and let you have a secure hold on your phone. I did not do a drop test but the case looks and feels like it would at least be able to withstand a drop from 6 feet. The case has enough "raise" to protect the screen and camera and the material is rugged and sturdy. This case keeps the iPhone XR slim and lightweight. The phone is big and this case does not add much bulk or weight to the phone. It has a nice matte texture and does not attract fingerprints or dust and lint. The volume and power buttons have no issues with this case and remain clicky and responsive. Charging ports and speakers also are unobstructed with this case. I am the type of person who constantly buys new cases for his phone, and I can honestly say that I plan on keeping this case on my phone as long as possible. It is a very nice and sleek case and keeps the iPhone XR slim and light. I highly recommend this case.
