Anyone who knows about my opinions on cases will know that I am a huge fan of the Griffin Survivor series of cases. It is pretty much what my iPhone 4s lived in, and now it is what my iPhone 5 has started its life off in.
These cases are hardcore. They are big and bulky, but when you are aiming for extreme protection they are the dogs dangles!
They are tested against drops, water (not waterproof unfortunately), sand and dust, and has received US military approval.
I tend to double up on the protection as well, as I also have the phone covered in a matt screen guard and rear protector too. If using an additional screen guard with the Survivor or any other type of case with its own built in screen guard you need to use matt. Anything else will case water marking between the two.
If you think this is a bit excessive you are probably most certainly correct, I just dont like the thought of a little piece of dust getting in there and scratched away at the phone unchecked for a long period of time, so easch to their own eh?
As far as the case goes there are a few notable changes from that of the iPhone 4 / 4s :
