Speck PixelSkin for iPhone 4 Review

Since the iPhone 4 only came out a short while ago, many case makers have been scrambling to make that perfect case! And it now seems that Speck has done exactly that. The Speck PixelSkin for iPhone 4, is an amazing case to have. It looks great and feels great. Not to mention it protects your precious iPhone 4. The tactile pixel texture and perfect amount of “squish” is what makes this rubberized iPhone 4 case so grippy in-hand and famously protective.  And the grid texture, really does make it easy to grip. However, one problem I did find with this case, is the rubber covering the buttons. When pressing the two volume up and down buttons, it’s a bit hard to do so. The same goes for the lock button. Now this could be because the case is brand new and not broken into yet, but its still a minor problem. Also another thing, the case will not fit into my Apple Universal dock. Even when not using the dock connector. Now I can either blame this on Apple or Speck. But if you plan to use Apples dock with this case, I would look the other way. Overall though, I wouldn’t say don’t get this case because of these two very minor flaws. If you want a stylish case with protection, the PixelSkin is a great choice to get!

Specks Q&A-

  • What is the PixelSkin made of?
    PixelSkin cases are made of Silicone- one of the world’s most grip-able, rubbery and awesomely shock-absorbing substances!
  • Is the screen protected?
    The raised, rubberized bezel helps protect your screen from coming in contact with other surfaces that might scratch it. If you’d like a screen film that protects your entire screen, our totally awesome ShieldView screen films for iPhone 4 will be available shortly.
