"Otterbox iPad Commuter Series Case" - Case Review

Otterbox is the always excellent company that has been in business since 1996 and are based in Fort Collins,Colorado. I've had the honor of testing the Otterbox iPad Commuter Series Case. Here is the complete product rundown followed by me review:

Compatibility:
* Apple iPad


Features:
* Access to all buttons and features
* Silicone plugs provide coverage for ports
* Includes a self-adhering protective film
* Snap-off access for optional iPad dock


Material:
* Self-adhering clear screen protector
* Durable silicone skin
* High-quality polycarbonate outer shell


Environmental Protection:
* Case provides added protection against bump and shock. Case is NOT protective against water.

I've personally been using this product since early September and find it to be (as is the case with anything Otterbox produces) superior to anything else you'll find at your local retailer. Applying the three layers of protection to the iPad takes only a few minutes at most and once you take your patience in applying the screen protection your golden from there, and the process takes no longer than a few minutes total. The protective layer on the screen really adds confidence in operating my iPad now and no longer worry getting smudges or scratches. Also gone is the worry of sitting the tablet on an unwatched table or inside my backpack or suitcase. This case to put it mildly is a beast and with that admittedly comes some extra bulk to the overall size and weight. The iPad is in my opinion is somewhat cumbersome anyway so a little extra heft is a fair trade for superior protection .

The snap off access to an Apple dock was easy to use and provided strong support for standing my iPad instead of always having to bend my neck down to see it on a table or my lap. I especially like this feature for enjoying a picture slideshow with family or friends on the go.

The much welcomed benefit of silicone plugs that cover all the ports except the microphone is a big plus. It helps too keep dust or other intrusions except for water out of your expensive investment.

Overall this remarkable case provides superior protection for the Apple iPad and without a doubt best on the market build quality , while still being quite attractive. My highest complements are extended to Otterbox.

Otterbox Defender Series Case for Apple iPad - Review

Otterbox is a wonderful company that has been in business since 1996 and are based in Fort Collins,Colorado.

• Built-in stand for viewing convenience
• Bottom silicone grip pads keep your iPad in place

I have been testing this product for close to month now and find it to be superior to anything else you'll find at your local retailer. Applying the three layers of protection to the iPad takes only a few minutes at most and once you lay down the screen protection rest of it is a cinch. The protective layer on the screen really adds confidence in operating my iPad now and no longer worry getting smudges or scratches or sitting the tablet on any table or inside my backpack or suitcase. The case to put it simply is a beast and with that admittedly comes some extra bulk to the overall size and weight. The iPad is in my opinion is somewhat cumbersome anyway so a little extra heft is a fair trade for superior protection .

I found the built in kickstand to snap into place and provide strong support for tilting your iPad instead of always having to look down at it on a table or your lap. I especially like this added feature when I want to show friends and family my photos and will just pop the stand and let the show begin.

The added benefit of silicone plugs that cover any ports except the microphone is a big plus. It helps too keep dust and also provided the chance to take the iPad with me to the beach just last week without worry of sand particles or wind intruding.The removable part of the case that will provide you access for using an Apple iPad dock connector needs a little patience to slide off or back on again but the added protection when it is on is appreciated.

Overall this remarkable case provides superior protection for the Apple iPad with best on the market build quality , while still being attractive. I would suggest heading over to www.otterbox.com and enjoy your iPad wherever you want to go, worry free. My highest complements to Otterbox.

Otterbox Defender Series Case for Blackberry Storm 2 9550 - Review

Otterbox has been in business since 1996 and is located in Fort Collins,Colorado. I have been using a couple different product lines of theirs for the past few months and am proud to present my first review that features the Defender Series case for the Blackberry Storm 2 9550 Smartphone. Here is the product rundown followed by me review:

* Compatibility - Accommodates the BlackBerry Storm2 9550/9520 smartphones ONLY.
Features:
* Layer 1: Thermal formed protective clear membrane. Protects keypad against scratching, as well as dust intrusion
* Layer 2: Hi-impact polycarbonate shell for an added guard against drops and shocks
* Layer 3: High quality silicone skin to absorb bump and shock
* All buttons are fully functional through the case
* Sound is transmitted through case
* Silicone plugs provide access to all ports
* Added bump, drop, and shock protection
* Includes holster style ratcheting belt clip
* Acoustic vents on speaker phone and headset speaker
* Isolation foam on microphone
Dimensions (case only): 4.72" x 2.90" x .83"
Weight (case, without phone): 1.82 oz.



Please note* This particular case is not waterproof and does not protect against water intrusion. I have been using this case personally since the end of December and find it to be the best case on the market for the Storm 2. The build quality is beyond strong and though the case adds a slight bit of bulk it never felt cumbersome. The overall design is solid and still looks very nice. The only annoyance I found with the case is when I chose to use the mini USB cable when the phone was in the holster case as this caused the plug to be bent slightly due to the clip. The protective membrane for the keys never hindered functionality. I had no problem installing the protective screen shield either and it still shows no signs of scratching or damage. The acoustic vents were perfectly designed and I never experienced any complications when talking or listening.



Overall this excellent case provides superior protection for the Storm 2 with a strong build that still keeps a pleasing design aesthetic. I have only had one experience where I dropped the phone when in the case and both were are still in perfect working condition with no signs of damage. I would suggest you head over to Otterbox.com before making that trip to Best Buy to purchase an inferior, yet similar priced case.
