Review- Otterbox Impact Series

**JReel** · 02-12-2009, 02:34 AM

What is going on everyone?! It's member JReel with another video review, this time on the Otterbox Impact Series for the Blackberry Bold. First initial impressions is that the feel of this case is not a gummy feeling, not a lint catcher like other cases, definitely a different feel from the Case-mate Smart skin. I received a grainy textured feel from the bottom, top and the sides of the case. It doesn't completely cover the bezel, but i don't think it was a big deal because of a such a big silicone that is offered on the bottom and top. This case is super durable and very shock absorbent, experimenting with it like dropping it on different surfaces there was no damage on my Bold afterward. The silicone by the USB port is very minimal to other cases i have reviewed, but not such a big deal, but would've been a nice touch if they would've included a screen protector of some sort. Swooped this tank of a case up at the Crackberrystore for $12.99 in Black

So many cases, so little time!
Steller job my friend.
You showed very large yaya's with the
end zone spike you put on your berry.

Good review

Not a particular fan of the case though

**mrhiker101** · 02-12-2009, 10:50 AM

It is smaller than the other Otterbox I have. I like it. If and when will this be released for the 8330?

**benzworm** · 02-12-2009, 11:25 AM

another great job Jreel

**Crackberrykills** · 02-12-2009, 12:08 PM

Indeed, outstanding job J. I am not a fan of Otterbox as well, but that vid was something special. You were really throwing your BB around for a moment there.

Nicely done J. But in the future, we will all take your word on the
shock resistance. Stop chucking that thing around like that

**ipos** · 02-13-2009, 06:29 PM

looks sleek, tempted to order one.
but too bad currently cb store to not ship to my country yet

**wirelessgal** · 02-14-2009, 12:20 AM

Another great review! It does look like it will protect the Bold. Has abit of an "army" look to it.

**Darth_Vaders_Inhaler** · 02-14-2009, 10:02 AM

Great work again JReel.

I'm glad you a Bold user. If you were devoted to a different phone I'd feel nothing but jealousy for that community.

Thanks! lol yeah its really a rough looking case

**amazinglygraceless** · 02-14-2009, 02:36 PM

Another great review. I'm not a fan of silicone skins, but if I were
I would really want those colors to be way more subdued.

**sito** · 02-15-2009, 01:26 PM

what external holster can hold the otter box too? I don't want those clip on holster. I want a full holster that will hold the entire otterbox.

Hmm, well the only holster that i have is the Seidio Innocase which fit most of my cases (check out my vid for that), and i have the OEM Blackberry Holster which DOES NOT hold the Otterbox
