Anyways, I went to Bangkok at the start of the month and it was crazily hot there. I enjoyed there though and frankly speaking, I feel that I did not shop enough. Well, I think that's what shopaholics say.
Also, I went to Funan Digital Mall yesterday, saw the Otterbox Defender Samsung Galaxy S3 case selling at $39. Considering that it's Otterbox and futhermore, Defender edition, I know it's a pretty good deal. But the colours were weird and I was hesitating whether to get it or not. Anyways, it's retailing at USD$49.95 and here's the description of the case by Otterbox.
The Samsung Galaxy SIII Defender Series case is built with 3 layers of rugged protection so you don’t have to fear the inevitable misadventure or mishap. The two piece polycarbonate shell fits around the device to form a solid foundation. A screen protector is built into the inner shell to prevent scratches and smudges while foam padding cradles the device. The outer silicone slipcover wraps around the inner shell to absorb impact from bumps, shocks and drops. A belt-clip holster is included and can double as a kickstand for viewing. Get protection that inspires confidence with the Galaxy S3 Defender Series case by OtterBox.
And also, here are a few pictures of the Otterbox case.
Flame (Black/Flaming Red),
Boom (Pop Purple Transparent/Violet Purple),
Anyways, the colours are much brighter in real life cos I've seen some of them at Funan but the colour Flame was nowhere to be seen. I was tempted to purchase Boom but after looking at the actual cover for a full 2 minutes, it looks kinda weird. Btw, Boom is sold out on Otterbox's website here. Anyways I wanted to get the Flame colour, until I read the reviews and many were raging about how the silicone cover actually goes out of shape over time. So now, I'm considering other series of the Otterbox cases or maybe even other brands.
In case you guys are interested in rugged cases, I've compiled a list of rugged cases that you guys may refer to. I'm kind of a geek myself and well, as a part-time engineer, I feel the need to have a rugged case for my phone. I'm running in the rain, dropping my phone all the time during work, which explains why I can go through the trouble of looking for rugged cases and to make things easier for you guys, I'm posting it here. Enjoy the list and feel free to leave comments if you know any other brands with rugged cases that should be included in the list.
