G-Form Outs Extreme Grid & X Protect Extremely Tough iPhone Cases

February 09, 2012/ Nir Schneider

Leave it to G-Form to come up with one mean looking, tough on rocks iPhone 4S and iPhone 4 cases. Up until today, G-Form's sleeves were able to protect iPads from dropping bowling balls to massive heights of 100,000 feet near the edge of space. And now G-Form's first iPhone cases are just as tough using RPT technology, a compound with some awesome materials mixed up to form really protective iPhone cases. G-Form has released two designs including the Extreme Grid case and the X Protect case. Both cases offer dual-layer protection combining a tough rigid exterior shell with an inner RPT core that extends through the shell to provide extreme impact protection by momentarily stiffening to absorb over 90% of the force from an impact, and then immediately returning to their natural flexible state.

Both of G-Form's iPhone cases are now available for pre-order and will be available in black and yellow later this month for $39.95. Until then, enjoy this video of an iPhone inside the X Protect case surviving a 82mph slapshot after the jump! Enough said, take my money now so I can replace my hockey puck with my iPhone.

G-Form Extreme Portfolio iPad 2 Case Announced, Dropped From 60 Feet (Video)

July 13, 2011/ Nir Schneider

G-Form goes at it again with a new addition to their Extreme Sleeve case for the iPad 2 offering extreme impact protection called the Extreme Portfolio folio case for the iPad 2. This time, G-Form takes their latest Extreme Portfolio and compares it against the competition, Otterbox. What happens when you drop the iPad 2 screen side down from 60 feet straight onto pavement inside a G-Form Extreme Portfolio? Nothing. An iPad 2 inside a Otterbox Defender Series case will completely get annihilated on the other hand.

The Extreme Portfolio has an adjustable easel stand, an inside pocket for documents and a reversible zipper that zips to convert the case to a doubly protective tablet format. Are you planning on a rock climbing trip anytime soon? You might want to pick up the Extreme Portfolio for the iPad 2 for $79.95 once it ships out on August 11.
