ClearBoost Case: Making Downloads for iPhone Faster?

ClearBoost Case: Making Downloads for iPhone Faster?

As a matter of fact a great number of so-called “brainy” iPhone accessories can be used only for aesthetic purposes. Only few of them have really useful application. The device I’m going to describe below is one of them.

Griffin Technology has come up with ClearBoost case. Today seems to be the case-day. I’m reviewing though different but in fact two types of the same accessory – iPhone cases.

So ClearBoost case is aimed at two major purposes

  1. Protecting your iPhone from external dangers
  2. Boosting the device’s cellular signal

Griffin Technology is specializing in the creation of protective cases for iPhone and ClearBoost case is the first devices that somehow deviates from the course.

When you first see the case you might think that it is just an ordinary one (perhaps except for a small nub that protrudes from the top of the case). But this nub is responsible for making the cellular connection better. In fact it doesn’t give a significant improvement of the signal but you will see that a number of additional signal bars will appear on the screen.

If you wonder how it works, it’s simple – ClearBoost adds an antennae booster to your iPhone. It catches additional signal and send it to the phone via the inbuilt antennae.

As for the protection of the device, Griffin Technology ClearBoost is a strong polycarbonate case. The case is able to protect your phone from scratches and other defects that affect the aesthetic condition of it. Although the device doesn’t give incredible boost in the signal, it definitely improves it. The cost of the case is $29.99 and it seems a reasonable deal, as the device is a great case besides being an antennae booster.

Fire Protection for your iPhone: New Case by OtterBox

Do you want your beloved iPhone truly protected against…anything? I think that I’ve found a great solution for you. There is case called OtterBox Armor Series. It is stronger that Arnold Schwarzenegger, stronger that Bin Laden, even stronger than Robo-cop.

The features of the Armor Series:

At first sight the case seems a little too bulky, but when you read the protection features you get to understand what this bulk is caused by. The case is for those who want to speak over their iPhone in the open space. Water, sand, dust is no longer a problem. Fighting for Nepal’s liberty? Don’t forget to cover your iPhone with Armor Series case.

Getting the phone into the case is a piece of cake. You simply slide it into the case which opens like a clamshell and fasten the latches back into their place. The major disadvantage of the construction is that you can talk via headphones only.

The Verdict

Armor Series is the top model in the product line of OtterBox. It is made for those who need the maximum protection for their phone and want to use in the “extremest” conditions imaginable.

The price of the device is $69.95. That is not cheap, but you really get the protections you pay for. If you need that kind of 110% protection the case won’t be a sheer waste of money. To my mind no case is able to compete with Armor Series in the degree of phone protection.
