Ron_CA Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 Help me out here. Not sure what it does or how it protects for my $50? I just went with the silicon case and had the thin (like window tint) screen protector installed.
GasHog369 Posted November 16, 2010 Author Posted November 16, 2010 One of the contractors that comes in my work has one on his blackberry and it is extremely durable. I have one of the cheap verizon cases on mine now with the screen protector and it still feels like if i should accidentally drop it , it would break.
07VMax Posted November 16, 2010 Posted November 16, 2010 Otter Box FTMFW!!!!!!! they are the BEST case i have ever had, it comes in three pieces and the phone is 100% covered in it
gregrocks89 Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 i got the roots case for my blackberry, like an otter box, but its tough and thick rubber and it comes with a screen protector. I love that thing you can literally throw my phone across the room and it doesnt hurt it. Its worth the money its saved it alot. But my gf works at best buy and they are like $45 and i got mine for $10

I just went with the silicon case and had the thin (like window tint) screen protector installed. exactly what someone who has never had a phone protected by otterbox would say... My current cell phone purchases are based upon the availabilty of an otterbox for said phone

My current cell phone purchases are based upon the availabilty of an otterbox for said phone I don't have an Otterbox for my phone, but those cheap silicon cases aren't shock resistant. I believe the Otterbox cases are. If you drop your phone from 6ft off the ground, even with the 1mm rubber skin, the 'shock' of the drop still can crack the screen. The more expensive cases (usually) try to soften the 'shock' of the landing.
mtiffinal Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 A friend of mine had an otterbox on an iphone fall from about 40-45', banged all kind of steel piped handrails on the way down, picked the thing up and it has worked fine. I'm sold on them.
chakis24 Posted November 20, 2010 Posted November 20, 2010 you guys pay more for your case than i did for my entire phone.....
GasHog369 Posted November 20, 2010 Author Posted November 20, 2010 Got the case today.. LOVE IT! It came with a monster size holster to clip on a belt which i wont use, but it is sweet! I took some pics to show you all. It comes with a hard shell case with screen protector built in. Then there is the rubber case that goes over it all, with removable plugs to cover ports from water... It is not completely water proof as water can still get in from the speaker / camera / and mic holes , but if you accidentally dropped it in a puddle or something it would have a lot better of a chance surviving in this case! It is pricey but i highly recommend it! \
uh6tdrvr Posted November 20, 2010 Posted November 20, 2010 One of my dad's friends had one and dropped his phone off of his Harley @ 70 on the interstate and his phone survived unscratched!
GasHog369 Posted November 21, 2010 Author Posted November 21, 2010 I believe it! I'm considering taking the insurance off the phone now after i got this case...
ChevyTech77 Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 Crazy, never seen one. Looks like I'll have to log onto that site and order myself a nice little X-Mas present. I have the case-clip that was originally out with the X. Got mine a week after they came out and love it!
GasHog369 Posted December 2, 2010 Author Posted December 2, 2010 this came with a belty clip to hook onto pants but it hold the whole casing of the phone / and otterbox case. it is monsterous! I chose not to use it and just drop the phone in my pocket.
