Taylor here again and today I want to
0:06
talk about iPhone cases here's the
0:08
reality you're probably paying 25 30
0:11
even 35 or 40 dollars to get an iPhone
0:13
case that just has a graphic seriously
0:16
not very exciting probably they don't
0:18
even protect your phone very much but
0:20
they certainly aren't generally very
0:21
useful however there are some companies
0:24
doing some really Innovative things and
0:27
one of the ones I want to talk about is
0:28
company called sound pockets and so they
0:30
have this thing called the freedom case
0:32
and it might be a little hard to see but
0:35
let me open it up because in the back
0:38
you have space for your headphones
0:41
that's pretty cool and then obviously
0:43
you just have your phone like this and I
0:45
don't have a phone in here because
0:47
you'll see it would take way too long to
0:49
switch between them so this one's pretty
0:51
slick but there's other stuff out there
0:53
too so it's another company called wires
0:57
cases and they have what they call the
0:59
band era case this is actually the Kush
1:02
so it's soft but again if you look at it
1:05
it's going to give you protection but
1:07
the big piece of this is in the back
1:09
what's that
1:11
it is this so what this means is you can
1:16
be sitting there tapping away merrily
1:18
while riding a bike while running while
1:21
doing really any sort of activity in
1:23
fact you could even be on the subway and
1:25
as you're bouncing along and jostling
1:27
and trying to hold on and not fall your
1:29
phone's not gonna go anywhere it's nice
1:31
and it's secure really another smart
1:33
idea and then the third one just so we
1:36
have very different sorts of things is
1:39
this is actually a fun case from a
1:40
company called Pure gear and again you
1:44
know this time we actually have a phone
1:45
in here but what makes this fun is let
1:48
me show you
1:50
it's an actual maze with a little tiny
1:53
BB in it so when you're really bored and
1:56
you really there's not an iPhone game
1:58
that's going to work for you you can be
2:00
doing something like this and trying to
2:02
solve it and I will tell you that from
2:04
my experience it's really hard but this
2:07
is what they call their Retro Game cases
2:09
and again what I like about all three of
2:12
these companies is they're really
2:13
rethinking what iPhone cases are so I
2:17
would tell you to check this stuff out
2:18
maybe next time you go to the Apple
2:20
Store or maybe go on to their sites so
2:22
starting at the top this is sound
2:24
Pockets at soundpockets.com this runs
2:27
about 40 bucks but again being able to
2:30
have your headphones right there and not
2:32
wrapped around your phone very handy and
2:35
it's actually it's quite comfortable to
2:37
hold because as you can see it's
2:39
designed for your palm
2:41
and then this one is from wires cases
2:45
w-y-e-r-s and this runs around 30 bucks
2:48
different colors slightly different
2:50
styles and its big selling point is this
2:53
ham little band that keeps it on your
2:55
hand and then finally this third one is
2:58
the Retro game from Pure gear and this
3:02
also runs about thirty dollars and they
3:04
have different games too so if you look
3:05
at this one and you're like yeah not so
3:07
much on the little mazes But whichever
3:10
these three you check out I really would
3:12
encourage you to look at your phone
3:13
right now and ask yourself is my case
3:16
actually working for me or is this just
3:18
another dull graphic this is Dave Taylor
3:21
and I'll see you in my next video
3:30
