is the black cover matte or shiny?

Semi matte, I have had the cover about 6 months and it has held up well. I travel about 2 weeks/month and I have no complaints about the fit, design or durability.

I've had mine for about 10 months and it's matte. It's still on my MAC and in great shape. My 2 yr old grandson tried to force it off once and cracked one of the edges. I just put it back in place and continued to use it. You can't even find the one inch crack. It's well worth the money.

It is the turquoise rubber protector then the outer covering with design is shiny. Hope that helps. My granddaughter loves it.

it is shiny but not a Glossy finish. It's reflective enough to use as a match for the trim on the vehicle

Just installed one and it is more of a matte finish. It is not shiney at all. I think it's very sharp looking, but more of a dull black with a slightly rough texture.

It has a matte finish with some specs of metallic....not a lot of metallic. First came damaged due to poor packaging. Second one came quickly and in perfect condition. Very nice. I absolutely love it.

It is shiny. Well, the one that arrived at my house is shiny. It's a great product for a fraction of the price. My only complaint is that the reflector shakes/vibrates while in motion.

It has a matte finish. Not shiny. I believe you can polish it to shine though.

It is a combo of glossy and flat black. The pic only distorts it to " looking " grey. I like.

It is shiny but be careful. I had it in my pocket that also had my keys. The sheen was easily scratched off. I still have and use it. Only I see it and it doesn't bother me.

It's more matte, but a little shine to it. It looks very good on kitchen or bathroom cabinets. Just the right finish you would expect. It looks very good. Not what I would consider shiny.

The back on mine looks like a matte black finish and the sides are a smooth shiny black

It's a black cover. It is pretty reliable, but I have a yellow phone too and would prefer to show the color as well.

As others have said,the sides and part of the back are gloss black. The larger "S" or swoosh detail on the back is flat black, which makes it appear slightly lighter in color, but I wouldn't say it looks grey. The contrast is quite snazzy looking actually...I also have the white cover, and the gloss part is clear, with the matte kind of a frosted look

Slippery shine not matte. Matte would be better if you have black Iphone. White matches white iPhone. :-) but black looks much better.. I bought both btw

The black finish has a gloss to it. It is not extremely shiny, but just enough to look nice. This is an excellent toaster.
