The Otterbox Armor Series Cases are being promoted as the toughest ever built. "Outperform[ing] what was ever thought possible for a smartphone case," as written on the website, this collection of cases ensure that one's precious device is protected from all sorts of dangerous situations.
Not only are the Otterbox Armor Series Cases waterproof for 30 minutes in as deep as 6.6 feet of water, they can also survive 10 feet drops, allow for zero entry of dust and debris as well as withstand two tons of crushing force. Topped with a built-in screen protector and it's all very pretty impressive indeed.
