As some of you know, I recently upgraded my ancient BlackBerry
0:05
8703E. So, I look at this. I even still have the original box and accessories
0:10
and everything. Pretty cool, but no
0:13
longer relevant. So, today I'm going to be unboxing a cover or a case for my
0:19
iPhone 4. It has a carbon fiber body
0:22
armor for the ultimate protection, fit, and durability. 360° protection.
0:27
prevents dropped calls due to antenna attenuation. Now, I have actually run
0:31
into this already with my phone. The reception is not as good as my ancient
0:36
Blackberry real carbon fiber look and feel. Precision cut to fit the iPhone 4.
0:41
And don't forget is it is engineered and made in Canada.
0:45
And you can also feel me on the back
0:49
according to the uh package.
0:55
So yeah, I think what they mean is that
0:59
you can feel the the you know the case
1:03
on the back of the
1:06
package. So let's just open this
1:09
up and then uh we will find out if it's
1:14
quality. I'll also install it and then I'll uh I'll show it once I once I
1:18
finished installing it. So, we have a little uh screen cleaner as well as a
1:23
little application square and a screen protector. All right, that looks pretty
1:27
good so far. And then, oh, I bent it or
1:31
it was bent. I It's hard to say which. So, I'll install this and I'll see if
1:36
that impacts the performance of the Blackbox carbon fiber body
1:41
armor. It did take a little while to install and get it just right. I
1:45
actually think it should come with uh an assistant, you know, maybe like a small
1:50
child who can uh apply the stickers for you because it's very difficult to get
1:54
them on straight. But now that I've applied it, I went from getting one bar
1:59
of reception in my office to three bars cuz I'm not uh I'm not bridging the
2:03
antennas anymore. And it also looks pretty cool. I did not apply the screen
2:08
protector because I don't really care. It's a very very sturdy piece of glass
2:12
and I'm not too worried about scratching it. and it gives it a nice little look and
2:16
it's also a little bit more grippy. It's a little bit easier to hold on to. I have dropped it once already, so that's
2:21
very much appreciated. So, there you go. That's the Blackbox carbon fiber body
2:25
armor iPod iPod iPhone 4 wrap.
