Have the evutec carbon case but love the matte semi transparent cases and looks like speck makes one now. Just ordered on Amazon !

Picking this up in a few hours from my local ATT. Interested to see how it handles fingerprints and smudges

Decided to return it! Very soft and slippery and isn’t really translucent enough back to evutec! Want the apple clear case but hate the MagSafe on it

How did it handle fingerprinting? How were the buttons?
Buttons are absolutely horrible. I used this case for 3 days and really wanted to like it. I bought it because I hate fingerprints and wanted something with good protection.

I then bought the tech21 Evo Check to try out and it is night and day. The phone feels so much lighter and more confortable to use. The Speck made the phone feel big and bulky and was too slippery for my taste. And the buttons... so bad!

Funny you mention that- those are my two cases as well. So far the buttons seem “ok” not as good as the evo check, but not terrible by any means. I like the feel of the perfect mist so far.

Honestly, for the 3 days I used that case, the iPhone 12 pro felt like such a different phone coming from the iPhone X in terms of comfort. Since I switched last night, I am so much happier. To each his own though. I guess that’s why they make millions of cases... everybody looking for that perfect feel.

Its going back. I cannot understand Speck's change to this soft touch stuff, but once there is any grease, or finger prints on the case, it is a struggle to get it off. At least with the tech 21, it removes easily.
