Speck iPhone 16 Pro Max Case - CandyShell Grip Case for Women and Men - Blue/Faded Denim

I love this phone case! It is beautiful, protective, and functional. The purple color is classy, and it features a subtle glitter that adds just the right amount of pizzazz without being gaudy or childish. The case feels very good quality, which I expected from Speck products, and it fits my iPhone 17 like a glove. All of the buttons are accessible. It is easy to put on and remove, as well. The magnet strength is very strong, and the case itself is just the right thickness without being bulky. It is an excellent value for the money. 5/5 would recommend.

I recently got the Speck iPhone 16 Pro Max Case in the CandyShell Grip design (Blue/Faded Denim) for my new phone, and it’s been a solid protector overall. This case promises a secure grip and decent drop protection for the iPhone 16 Pro Max, and it mostly delivers on that front. Quality and Build: The case feels well-made, with a dual-layer design that combines a hard outer shell with a softer inner lining for shock absorption. The Blue/Faded Denim color scheme looks sleek, and the textured grip strips on the sides add a nice tactile feel. It fits my iPhone 16 Pro Max snugly, with precise cutouts for the buttons, ports, and camera. The build quality is impressive, though the glossy finish does attract some fingerprints. Performance: The grip is the standout feature here—it’s easy to hold, even with one hand, thanks to the raised rubber strips. I’ve dropped my phone a couple of times from low heights (about 3 feet), and the case protected it without a scratch. The buttons are responsive, and the case adds just enough bulk to feel protective without being cumbersome. It’s been great for daily use, keeping my phone safe from scuffs and minor bumps. Value for Money: For the price, this Speck case is a good deal. It’s not the cheapest option out there, but you’re paying for a trusted brand with a solid track record for protection. If you’re looking for a stylish, grippy case for your iPhone 16 Pro Max, this offers great value compared to other premium cases. Overall: The Speck iPhone 16 Pro Max CandyShell Grip Case is a reliable, stylish choice for protecting my phone, with excellent grip and decent drop protection. The slickness is a minor annoyance, but it doesn’t overshadow the overall quality. I’m happy with its performance and design—5 stars for functionality and style!

This a a tight squeeze to get the phone but onc in it as awesome. Doesn’t stick to your Clothing or purse for pulling in or out. It has a nice protection frame over camera lenses. Function buttons are easy to press. The back is smooth and the sides have nice finger grips. Love it.

Sturdy, seems to protect my phone. Looks nice and all of the buttons on my phone push easily. This is a repeat purchase, I had one of these on my previous phone and it worked perfectly as well.

My always go to case anytime I get a new iPhone

I have loved Speck cases for years. I most loved my "black on white case" in this general design for my iPhone 11. It looked a little like a storm trooper. But I shop much more on features/protection and I really liked that my phone was extremely well protected, very safe and grippy. Sadly, although I finally upgraded my iPhone, this case is NOT the next logical progression. If you bought these for "grippy" / rubbery accents, look elsewhere. I understood the change to a flat back -- accessories attached & worked fine -- but I hoped the bumps on the edges were rubbery/grippy. They are NOT. The material (same everywhere) does *not* provide any satisfying grippiness. One of the previous reviews mentioned that the camera protection was only "partial" but I didn't get an answer on what that meant. Now that I've seen the case, I notice there is a review with a photo that shows the camera area is protected on three sides but NOT on the bottom side. The raised edge is tapered to nothing along this bottom edge. Ironically, it's this bottom edge that most concerns me since it's what would hit the table when you put your phone down. Check out the photo (black cover held up in the air). Weird, right? Although I valued the drop protection from Speck and loved the size and grippy accents. I ended up with an ESR Hybrid case (smooth but slightly gripper feel than some other cases) and a Torras ring with loop (I need a bit less grip if I have my finger in a loop). And tempered glass screen/camera lens protectors. Hope I chose well! LBNL, don't panic when you look at a case and see it is a frequently returned items. The space is so noisy and confusing, I ended up buying four different cases so, of course, three will go back!

Durable & good quality Great value for price

I always had Speck cases for my iPhones and when I got my 16Pro I did not hesitate to buy one again, mainly because of the non slip feature. This time I decided to get a white one. Only after having the case for a short while I read reviews about it and saw that other people have complained about not being able to keep it clean and no success in cleaning it. Today I finally had enough and bought a different brand case at Walmart (anti slip is even better). Now I am looking at the Amazon listing again and see it sells for $8.44 (coupon price). Save the money and buy something else. Had bought my white Speck in April of 2025. All the previous ones outlived the phones. Not this one.
