What have been your experience with this bumper case? Is it worth it, does it really fall apart, and can it really withstand a 11' drop?
After more than 15 years covering everything Apple, it’s with a heavy heart we announce that we will no longer be publishing new content on iMore and the iMore forums will be closing as of November 1st, 2024.
I tried their playproof case and it was nice and slim. It just was not for me.
I would like to get one with a D brand skin on the back. Amazon reviews show a bunch of these that fall apart after a few months of use.
Withstanding an 11' drop is dependant on the angle it hits. It may or may not. That kind of claim is silly. They don't tell you how many drops failed in the testing. Only that it passed in one. I wouldn't trust it for drops myself. Better than nothing I suppose.
Yahoo tested it and took for over 20 drops with increasing height and at 11 feet being throw full force with both hands only caused the phone to bend, otherwise fine.
Mobile-Reviews-Eh.ca also did a drop test video of over 40 drops with minimal damage to the phone by the end. This included drops such as stairs as well.
Not to mention Evolutive Labs has their own dual camera continuous shot drop test video of a 25 foot drop straight to concrete falling onto the corner of the phone, no damage.
You've been heavy into this one, haven't you? Lol
Yeah they have a new one coming out in a couple months, a couple of them actually. One is made of faux leather though, I might give that one a try.
i guess you will never use otterbox , right
