Mountain View, CA. – September 16th, 2013 – Speck, leading designer of award-winning, slim-fitting protective cases and covers for smartphones, tablets and laptops, today announced a unique iPhone case, CandyShell + Faceplate. It is the most sleek and stylish iPhone 5s/5 case available for all-over protection. It is available now on speckproducts.com and at AT&T stores starting September 20. CandyShell + Faceplate is a sleek, all-over protection system that includes: • Speck CandyShell’s patented dual-layer protection in a single-piece construction. The hard outer shell guards against impact, and the soft inner layer absorbs shock. • A protective faceplate, CandyShield, which applies easily and bonds to the device screen for superior touch response. This new technology, TrueTap™, delivers unparalleled touchscreen responsiveness. • A carefully crafted opening on the faceplate that makes the case compatible with Apple’s new Touch ID fingerprint identity sensor on the home button of the iPhone 5s. “With CandyShell + Faceplate we wanted to offer in slim protection what others have been offering in bulk protection,” says Bryan Hynecek, vice president of design at Speck. “We engineered this iPhone 5s/5 case to deliver durability and 360 degree protection, plus Speck’s signature color and style, that preserves the beauty of the device.” CandyShell + Faceplate will be available in the most popular CandyShell colors including Black/Slate Grey, White/Charcoal Grey, Pomodoro Red/Black, Carnation Pink/Revolution Purple, White/Raspberry Pink and Raspberry Pink/Black, each of which now feature the matching CandyShield faceplate for an additional and protective extension of your color and style. All Speck cases are lab-tested for proven protection against environmental factors and everyday bumps, drops and spills.
