This is one of those shameless a company sent me something, so I’m going to do a write up about it Posts. Or in other words, this is my “payola” post of the week – before oversensitive people yell at me, I use the word “payola,” as a joke. I wanted a new protective case for my iPhone, so I asked the fine folks at Otterbox to send me one. They sent their White Defender Case and it is one of the nicest iPhone cases I’ve ever used. It feels sturdy, solid and smooth, yet it doesn’t add any weight or girth to the phone. The case doesn’t really bend at all. My old case was flimsy and cheap as heck – even though it cost me $50 at the Apple Store. At first I was concerned I would get the beautiful white color dirty, but I’ve had the case for about 4 weeks now and not a smudge on it, it still looks like new.
According to the Press Release the case “offers stylish and sophisticated protection in 3 layers. First, a thin, clear membrane covers your Touch Screen to help prevent scratches and dings. Second is a hard, strong Polycarbonate skeleton that surrounds your device. Wrapped around all of this is a Silicone skin that absorbs bump and shock. Included with the case is a ClipStand holster.” I feel cheated, I didn’t get the stand. I may ask Otterbox to send us a couple to give away. Check out their website. This is a solid A, it’s the best iPhone case I’ve ever used. I wished they made a version for the iPod Touch.
