Tech21 Impact Snap D3O Case with Cover Review
D3O is an amazing material that is soft until stuck, after which it goes rock hard and absorbs the shock throughout the material. If you haven’t already seen this material in action I’d recommend searching for D3O on YouTube for videos including phones and even eggs being thrown at full force against the wall and surviving without a mark.
