Otterbox offers military grade
protection for consumer smartphones.
Otterbox is a smartphone accessory
manufacturer that specializes in protective casings for select smartphones and
tablets. The brainchild of a water sport enthusiast, the company originally
made water resistant boxes and casings for iPods. They soon switched focus to
create protective casings for mobile devices. They also supply the US Army with
casings for sensitivity field equipment.

The company currently offers cases for
various products, such as the Amazon Kindle, all of Apple’s devices iPhone, the
Barnes and Noble Nook, various BlackBerry phones and its Playbook, Boost Mobile
phones, Motorola devices, Samsung GALAXY models, Sony Reader, Google’s current
Nexus range and various HTC as well as LG devices.
With such an extensive line-up, one can
only wonder as to why not all of these casings are available in Malaysia.
There are currently six different series:
Defender, Commuter, Impact, Reflex, Prefix, and Pursuit. The Defender and
Commuter series both offer the highest end protection, providing multiple
layers of defense against the elements (and clumsy users).

As for the Defender range, it is the case
for demanding conditions, heavy use and random accidents. In addition to its
multi-layer protection, it also features a built-in screen protector and port
covers that prevent debris from damaging ports.

Those that prefer a slimmer version, albeit
with less protection can look to the Commuter line. This slim and sleek case
provides substantial protection for your device to keep it looking great. It
features the same port covers as the Defender, although it only has two layers
of protection. It is definitely a necessary trade-off to maintain the narrow
profile.
