With new smartphones always arriving, the need to protect them against the catastrophically bad damage that a disastrous drop can deliver is paramount, with the case for a protective case clearly clear.
Promising its most protective case yet for Samsung's latest smartphones, the S9 and S9+ series, is tech titan Tech21, with the Evo Max, along with several other innovative Evo models ready to rock and protect 'drop after drop'.
Tech21 proudly boasts of "pushing the boundaries of innovation for over 10 years," nothing this new range is "no exception".
The flagship prime protector is the Evo Max, which "combines a tough polycarbonate shell, a three-layer protection system and FlexShock," with FlexShock being Tech21's unique "high-performing impact material".
{loadposition alex08}We're told these features "work together to provide an incredible four metres of scientifically-proven drop protection," which definitely sounds like it is taking protection to the maximum level.
Naturally, Tech21 tells us that its "innovation doesn’t stop there," with the company claiming to have "also solved the problem of how to perfectly apply screen protectors with its new Impact Shield Anti Scratch."
This is delivered via an "all-new, patented applicator included in the box, which is so easy to use it enables perfect installation, first time."
As you'd expect, you're probably looking for even more innovation, with that delivered "in the form of the Evo Luxe, the first impact protection case trimmed in premium vegan leather."
Given that cows are supposed to be vegan (with mad cow disease a prime example of what happens when you feed cows to cows), vegan leather is nowhere near close to a tautology, but we can, at least, stretch our imaginations to imagine taut leather vigorously being vegan and vying for your attention after having finally pocketed the S9 and S9+ when it arrives within the next couple of weeks.
So, what are the features of the vegan leather Evo Luxe?
Well, we are told that the Evo Luxe is "scientifically proven to protect from drops of up to three and a half metres and its premium finish adds a touch of luxury to the Galaxy S9/S9+’s sleek design."
Tech21 tells us its these new products "are part of the full line up of Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+ cases and screen shields now available from tech21, which also includes the brand’s most popular styles, such as the Evo Check, Pure Clear and Evo Wallet."
As a trusted ‘Designed for Samsung’ partner, Tech21 notes thet it "works in collaboration with Samsung to meticulously design each product with care, working in partnership right from the start. Each case is designed to allow the Galaxy S9 and S9+ to shine, with full access to ports and buttons and zero interference with signal quality or wireless charging."
John Doughty, CEO said: “This is the most exciting range we’ve developed for a Samsung device yet.
“As the original impact protection brand, we know that the most powerful innovation solves consumer problems, this range does just that and will enable users to rest assured that their new Galaxy S9 or S9+ is protected drop after drop.”
