Snow Lizard SLXtreme 7 iPhone Case | First Look

More people are using their smart phones as they head off on whatever adventure awaits. Improved GPS apps, ballistic calculators and weather apps all provide critical information for todays outdoorsman. In doing so, the smart phone has become a necessity in the outdoors. However, the outdoors isn’t a very smart phone friendly environment. Moisture, rugged terrain and lack of outlets are a few of the challenges that need to be overcome. Snow Lizard, known for their durable phone cases, have addressed these issues. Enter the SLXtreme 7 Case for the iPhone 7.

This is a robust case to say the least. To protect a delicate iPhone, the SLXtreme 7 case achieved the highest military-grade drop proof rating of 810G. Withstanding a fall from 2 meters without damage. Additionally, the SLXtreme 7 is engineered for water protection up to 2 meters earning a rating of IP-68. Knowing your iPhone will withstand a fall into a creek or a drop into shallow water is a real piece of mind. And for the adventurous photographer, a little underwater photography is achievable. The camera lens protector has been designed to provide crystal clear images.

Addressing the issue of battery drain, the SLXtreme has a few tricks up its sleeve. First is an integrated 4000 mAh battery. Essentially increasing the battery life of the iPhone 7 by 185%. This allows up to an additional 16 hours of talk time or 12 hours of app usage. And when you’ve exhausted both onboard and auxiliary batteries, the SLXtreme features an integrated top-tier (23% efficient) monocrystalline solar panel to keep your adventure going. Four green lights on the back of the case indicate how effective the solar panel is working. And every hour of solar charging provides enough power for a 10 minute phone call. Never leaving you completely without comms.
