So would you take your phone, heave it overhand up into the air, baseball-style, and let it land on the sidewalk?
Of course you wouldn’t. Nobody in their right mind would do that.
But, if you own a Mous case—at a breathtakingly cheapskate-friendly $50 for iPhone 10—it would appear from the videos the company has that there is no problem doing this.
Nor is there a problem dropping it out of a helicopter. Yes, helicopter.
Or 40-foot man-lift.
Or any number of other really phone-breakingly not-near-the-ground things.
You can also, apparently, break a beer glass with it. In case you need to do that.
So what I’m saying is that this case—which should be the size of a bed pillow, but which the company says only adds 4.5mm to the overall thickness of your phone—is tough. In video after video of youths screaming in amazement as their phone tumbles from the heavens to the tarmac and the camera that recorded the fall is still playing, it’s difficult to say the Mous case isn’t as boss as its name is diminutive.
The secret is the material inside the attractive case that isolates the tech from the “ground pound,” says Mous. It calls it “AiroShock.” While it does not come with the PlugFones we reviewed here, it does come with a screen protector.
Limited lifetime warranty to boot.
