4 Reasons You Need a Case for your Smartphone!

You know how it goes. You get a nice expensive new phone you’re depending on it day in and day out. Before long, it always happens. Some of us are luckier than others and can delay the inevitable, but we all know it’s going to happen. The phone drops and shatters the screen or hits it just right to make something not work quite right anymore.

I received a Pong case and compensation for this post. All opinions are my own.

I’m horrible about dropping my phone. I know it’s going to happen to me, yet I still delayed on getting a quality case to protect my phone. Even though my phone had slipped out of my hands a few time, nothing too bad had happened. But then my 2 year old dropped my phone while we traveling. When I picked up my phone I just wanted to cry. The screen was shattered, though luckily my phone is still usable.

Getting a case is the easiest and most affordable way that you can really protect your phone from damage. Here are 4 reasons why it is worth investing in a case for your smartphone!

4 Reasons You Need a Case for your Smartphone!

Protection from Drops – The most obvious reason to get a case for your smartphone is of course to protect your phone from drops. The case is able to absorb the majority of the shock from a hard hit, especially in the most crucial corners where your phone is most likely to hit and cause the most damage to your phone.

Dirty Hands – If you have kids, you know one touch of your phone and you wonder how in the world your phone got so dirty! Of course, your phone can still get dirty with a case on it, but the difference is you can pop off the case and wipe it clean without worrying about damaging your phone with the moisture from a wet rag.

A Better Grip – Somewhat surprising to me is how much easier my phone is to grip and hold onto. It doesn’t slide in my hand when I’m trying to swype text someone and feels really comfortable to hold, too. The case also makes it easier to dig out of the bottom of your purse, because it doesn’t seem to hide and slip between receipts and papers without being seen. When I’m shuffling into my purse, it’s much easier to recognize and find my phone with the case on it.

Easier to Identify – Many of us have the same popular phones like an iPhone or a Galaxy S4 or S5. I know my good friend and I both have a Galaxy S4 but it’s super easy to tell our phones apart as we have completely different looking cases. It’s really nice to know immediately which phone is your if a few end up on the counter together, which happens more often than you might think.

My phone has been protected by a Pong case for the last few weeks and despite my 2 year old carrying my phone to me any chance he gets (despite my pleas for him to put my phone down!) my phone has been in really good care. Pong Cases are really unique because not only are they protecting your phone from damage, they’re also protecting you from potential harmful radiation. The cases significantly decrease the amount of radiation that can be absorbed into your head and body while you are using or carrying your phone. The case uses a patented intelligent antenna technology that re-shapes the radio frequency signal — reducing exposure to wireless energy while actually optimizing the outbound signal!

I love knowing that the case is working double time to protect me and my family while not interfering with the purpose of the phone. Since my little ones are bound to spend some time around my phone, it’s important that they stay safe as we have so little knowledge about what long term effects cell phones might have on us.

The case doesn’t feel like it adds a lot of weight or bulk, which I really love. I choose the classic case to avoid extra bulk, but they do have rugged cases as well which offer even more protection and signal blockage. If you want to check out Pong Cases in person, they are sold at Best Buy stores across the nation or can be purchased directly from the Pong Case website.
