apiaguy Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 I replaced an intake manifold gasket on a ship tonight then adjusted the fuel servo mixture and set the throttle. Then I took my wife for a quick spin over town. She dropped her phone while taking a photo at 400ft and 75 kts. We tracked it using its gps and find my iPhone app. Took us right to it... On the roof of the Schwann ice cream distribution store... Got a ladder and the owner climbed up and retrieved it for us. Still worked just smashed the screen and it was still on tracking and making sounds....amazing 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superstallion6113 Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 My wife has the same Otterbox on her iPhone 4, screen cracked in her purse. I as well am curious how the defender would do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnitedWeStand111 Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 Life proof or defender ftw. Combine that with the new "whatever proof" Samsung for added durability. The screen is the weak point, wish someone would make a indestructible case out of diamonds or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
