Speck - Presidio SPORT Case for Apple® iPhone® 7 Plus and 8 Plus - Black/Slate

I've only had this case a couple days, so my rating does not yet consider it's drop protection. I work in the marine industry and have pretty specific things I look for in a case, until now I haven't found a case to replace my Commuter, my go to case for a long time but my one gripe is though awesome grip in the hand and great surface grip on the front, laid down on its back it's like a wet bar of soap. Saw a review of the Presidio Sport and ordered. LOVE it. Perfect for my use and needs far as I can tell so far. Feel in the hand is awesome and all-around great surface grip, plenty of lip, and love all the port protection, including individual speaker hole cutouts. I have NONE of the button issues many have encountered, buttons are super tactile and responsive no issue at all. I'd say an early rollout issue Speck will get more consistent with, I would highly recommend if you get a defected case have Speck replace this is just an awesome case when it's "right." My lightning port cover is very snug and bit of a chore to open like some have complained, but I get it open fine and not enough of an issue to me to knock a star. I'm sure it will break in a little over time and use. The true test will be in real use. I try to be careful, but the proverbial excrement happens sometimes, in the last year my phone has taken at least half a dozen HARD 6-8 ft. drops from the back of a boat on a trailer onto concrete, and other places around work where it sets on something that gets knocked into and flung around hard, and my Commuter and Zagg glass always saves the day. Eventually, this is going to take a hard drop and will update when I find out how it takes a hit. I'm pretty confident it will give similar protection as the Commuter. And the hi-vis Coast Guard red color is a nice bonus (they call it Poppy red, but this is exactly the same as Coast Guard red). Hope this helps.

i bought this case because i love the speck brand. had a nice feel to it and it was a great looking case. im sure the it would protect the phone just like any other speck case that ive gotten. only thing was that the power button wouldnt work. it looks like the tab inside just didnt align with the power button on my iphone 7 plus. it was either too long or it just wasnt on top of the button. i couldnt get a response when trying to press the button lightly. when i press it hard, it would be like pressing on it to where you want to shut the phone off. but if i press a little towards the front of the button, then it would work. the other buttons worked fine. just not the power button. too bad because that case looks and feels great, but just that darn power button ruined it.

Good case for the iPhone This case is easy to put onto your iPhone and it is not the slippery type while you’re holding your phone if your hand is wet or sweaty it doesn’t slide out of your hand I’ve used numerous types that when I drop Dave cracked or did slide out of my hand where this type of case is made very solid if you want to keep your iPhone from being shipped or scratched this is a pretty good caseworker this case is easy to put on to your iPhone it is not the slippery tight while you’re holding your phone if your hand is wet sweaty it doesn’t slide out of your hand I’ve use numerous types that when I drop Dave cracked or did slide out of my hand where this type of case is made very solid if you want to keep your iPhone from being shipped or scratched this is a pretty good case

This is the first Speck case that I have purchased and I think it's one of the best looking slim cases available. I really like the feel of the case and I think it offers good protection without being to bulky. I added a Zagg InvisibleShield for added screen protection as usual. As others have mentioned, I've found that there is a slight issue with the power button alignment. Mine works but it's more of a touch than a press for screen lock. I believe it's because the case was designed for the 7 Plus and the 8 Plus is slightly larger, making the case tighter? Either way, it's not a huge issue for me since the button will function. The volume buttons and mute/un-mute dial work perfectly. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my purchase!

I was excited to see it was on sale on BF. Like the feel of the case and the red color also stand out. The down fall...once I received the case I noticed the bottom charger door/entry (don't know the proper term) was difficult to open when you close it. You would need to have long nails or put some power to it. And the main issue I will be returning the item...the POWER BUTTON. I didn't read the comments before purchasing at the store, but the POWER BUTTON is an issue. It's not align with the Iphone 8 plus power button. I'm not sure what's the situation for Iphone 7 plus, but I would not recommend the product unless you are fine without using the power button.

I bought the red speck when I got my iPhone 8 Plus. It was working great until the material tore at the bottom where you charge so I had to replace the case because the tear was causing the case to be me loose and unstable. I got this one since it was the exact same style as the red one. It gets dirty and gritty feeling on the backside of the phone very quickly. Also, I dropped it once and my screen over bubbled up and cracked. Thankfully I have a Zagg glass protector with a warranty and they are going to send me a new one for free. I don’t recommend this case. I plan on getting something lose when my new screen protector comes in. Pretty disappointed in this brand.

i bought this case for my wife and she loves it. i bought the same one but red color for me. we both have invisible shiled screen protectors on our phones and the cases work fine with them. she even have the glass+ Luxe wich protects the screen all the way to the edge and the case isnt affected by it. both her and i were Otterbox and lifeproof people before we were introduced to Speck. i will now continue to buy Speck products for our phones. i have dropped my phone a couple times and she has dropped hers several. the case has lived up to the drop protection it claims. i love the feel of the case itself. it has a gripy type texture to it.

My old Speck case saved me $1,000. I left it on top of my car. Fell off at 40 MPH. Case was destroyed but iPhone X didn’t have a scratch & I’m writing this review on it. This new one has a couple of better features over the old one. There’s a knob you turn to turn off sound which is much better than digging in there with a fingernail. The knob that turns the display off & on is much easier to use than the old one. Also has a flap that protects the charging port. The material is more “sticky” so it doesn’t slide off tables.
