We’ve been impressed by G-Form’s ugly, abuse-proof iDevice cases before: an iPhone was used as a hockey puck, and we beat the living hell out of an iPad. But the newest case didn’t save my iPhone from horrific suicidal death.
If you want to sell something in tech, you can either employ cleavage or violence. In this case, the boys at G-Form are demoing their new iPhone case by beating the hell out of it with a hockey stick. Sure!
The last time I saw something survive a 400m fall, King of the Hill was still on and Peggy was celebrating her 20th wedding anniversary.
Your iPad is expensive and delicate, and one side of it is made out of glass. So breaking it is a very real, and very shitty prospect. Most cases will protect against bruises. This one protects against hammer strikes.
For those that enjoy the cheap thrills of iPad torture but aren’t quite prepared to bankroll replacement units, might we recommend the G-Form Extreme sleeve? You may have seen G-Form endure a 5kg bowling ball drop unscathed; now its creators have escalated the challenge to a 150m drop.
