SpeckPresidio 2 Grip Samsung Galaxy S23 Case - Drop & Camera Protection, Soft-Touch Secure Grip, Wireless Charging Compatible, Shock Absorbant, Galaxy S23 Case - Black

The Samsung S23 Ultra has a problem. It's large, heavy, and as slippery as a bar of wet soap, so you are almost guaranteed to drop it if you don't take that gorgeous phone and put it into some sort of grippy protective case. Ironic, I know. But now comes a moment of inflection. Do you want so much protection that your phone is safe....but looks like an industrial brick? Do you want something that will save you from minor scuffs and scratches but probably won't do much if you drop your phone? Or do you want something in between? If you want something in between, the Speck Presidio 2 is the case for you, with these features -- good reference for any case:1) Reinforced corners -- the part of the phone most likely to have impact2) Reinforced sides -- a good case has some flex on the inside, but is rigid all around the edges. Many cases have rigid parts, but not around the entire exterior.3) Has a good grip4) Fits snugly so nothing will jiggle out of place if the phone is dropped5) Is slightly elevated around both the screen and the camera lensesThe Speck ticks all these boxes. It does NOT give you a screen or lens protector, but I prefer these to be separate so they can be replaced separately from the case if need be.FYI, this is my second Speck case. The first one protected my old LG G8 for 4 years. That phone got dropped and banged many times, and the Speck saved its life an equal number of times. I trust the Speck case because I've used a Speck case. Now is protection guaranteed for every drop? Of course not, but this is, on the whole, a great case. And it will leave your S23 Ultra still looking sleek.

I love this case. It's not bulky, So it goes in and out of my pocket MUCH more easily than the original expensive case I had. It's nice and grippy, too. I've dropped the phone a number of times since buying it and no damage to the phone.

Have not had a Speck case in a long time. I did like them back in the day and continue to enjoy them now. This is a slimer/lighter case then some on the market but that is what I was looking for. Still seems to have a decent amount of screen/camera bezel protection as well overall phone. I did not want an expensive heavy duty case as I am pretty easy on my phones. Added a glass screen protector to round out package. Fits snugly and buttons are easily to use. Overall really happy with design and function of this case.

Great case and looks good! It has excellent grip and feels well made.

Pros: It is a solid constructed case, buttons and screen size precisely cutted. It has lines in the back that help holding the phone. Easy installation.Cons: all the edges of the case are really slippery had to get sandpaper and scratch ends to make the case somewhat holdable, after this it got better. Was bought at a heavy discount if it wasn't I would have sended it back the first day.

Slim, lightweight and sturdy. I need advice on removing the case to install a screen protector. Case is very tight to the phone.

I work outside logging and have smashed dropped from heights and otherwise inadvertently attempted to destroy these and my phone, but have failed so far. They add a little weight and require some finesse to remove, but that's part of how they're so able to protect your device.

I had to return my first case because it fit way too tight but this one is a bit better. It still takes some effort to take off but not to the point where I am nervous about damaging the phone. The grips are not as grippy as previous Speck cases I had but is enough and doesn't turn my pocket inside out when I take the phone out. There is no side play in the edges and the case fits snug with no weak feeling spots. The camera cut out sits tight to the phone so no dust or dirt gets underneath. My biggest complaint is it dose not lay 100% flat while face up. It's not terrible but not flat either. Everything else seems good and this is one of the better cases out there for protection without adding a bunch of bulk and making this big phone even bigger. I would have given 5 stars if it laid flat and had a slightly taller lip on the front than 1 mm or so. Still a keeper.
