Review of The Speck Candyshell Case for the I-Phone 3G

Speck (speckproducts.com) has several I-phone cases, all of which are unique and rather inventive. The one I will be looking at today is called the Candy-Shell casing as the company themselves say "Hard shell, Soft Center, Sweet Looks" I've found nothing to argue with this and everything to support it. The Candy Shells cost about $35.00 when purchased online from Speck however you can purchase the very same items from amazon.com brand new from about $25.00 - $28.00.

This I-phone casing, the Candy Shell, combines a rubberized interior to help protect your phone from bumps and scratches as you combine it along with a shiny hard outer shell that helps protect it further from the outside and lets it slip easily in and out of your pocket. Don't worry though; it's actually quite easy to slip your phone in and out o f the case, despite the tough exterior the casing still is flexible to insert your I-phone in just bend the casing slightly, to take it out just press on the Speck emblem and bend it back slightly so you can pull out your phone. This will take some slight effort, the case is a tight fit after all, but this is to ensure that the casing fits snugly and protectively around your phone.

All around the Candy Shell is an excellent buy. It will protect your phone while looking good at the very same time. Just like the company says "Hard Shell, Soft Center and Sweet Looks."

Miscellaneous Features and Notes about the Candy shell

All features of your I-Phone are accessible while in the case, there is an opening for your camera as well as for all ports and openings that will need to be accessed.

Though the back is shiny and does indeed show fingerprints, it doesn't show them nearly much as I've anticipated.

It has a sleek beautifully designed casing that compliments the form and shape of the I-Phone without becoming bulky or fighting against it.

The exterior feels smooth as silk despite being made of harder plastic it just "feels" smooth and secure to the touch.

The exterior and interior come together in tasteful two color combinations with the interior and exterior each being a different color combining to create a sleek and "sexy" overall look.

One-Piece design that fits the I-Phone 3g and the I-Phone 3gS
