I've one on backorder and can't wait to get it. I've had so many Speck Grip cases, and always been delighted. ps. once I bought a fake, not realising, and Speck customer care just gave me a case in replacement. I didn't ask for that, I just wanted to check it really was a fake, and to let them know the seller details.

Waiting on the black one? Att carries it and I think i read here Best Buy does too

Att only charges 40 for 7+ and 35 for 7, so 5
Off to boot

The white one, here in the UK. Perhaps since Speck is a US company, it seems the UK is a lower priority market for them.
 
These reports are starting to worry me about wear. My 7 Plus is nearing delivery date and I'm getting anxious. Can the posters that show wear on case, please, take a pic or two?
 
no wobble with the new black case

No wear issues here either. Have been using a black grip for my 7 plus for a couple of weeks now.

and you slide it in and out of your pocket a lot?

I'm sure customers who are affected will get replacements, Speck support from what I understand is quite good

If I am one of the unlucky ones, I'd like to see if ATT will let me just swap it out retail within the year as the sales rep touted

Looks like BH has them, no tax outside of NY for most places, and $40 ($5 less as well)

That link is for the iPhone 7 (not plus).

Yes, I slide it in and out of my pocket ALL OF THE TIME. I'm beginning to think that some grip cases were made better than others.
 
IDEA: If one of you thinks that your presidio case is wearing too fast, either exchange it or buy a new one and then return the defective case in the new box.
 
I just returned the apple leather case for this today. I preferred the look and feel of the leather case but it was getting discolored from sweat since I run with it.
 
Returning the presidio grip today. I'm sure the protection will be great. For me it made the phone feel significant heavier. Also random rough edges/points probably from the molding process and at the bottom cutouts irritated my hands. I frequently one-hand my phone by having my pinky finger at the bottom of the phone and it just got irritated constantly rubbing against the case.
 
Tried another two 7+ presidio grip at att store both black

They wobble on table too so screw it! Sticking with what I got

What's interesting is inside said 111 at the end of the engrained number on the inside part of the case (with a rectangle border around it) whereas mine and another said 211.

I wonder if the 211 is updated material, if I had to guess I would say yes.

The 111 certainly looked a little different shade of plastic on the inside And the rubber around the lip a little more potentially frail Material wise

Interesting observation about the numbers.

Mine is 321?
 
It appears that the first batch of cases weren't made as well as the newer ones. I had one of the first ones and it began to wear down on the top right corner, so I exchanged it for another one at Best Buy a couple of weeks later.

Two weeks in w the new one, it still looks brand new w no wear.
