With the ECO Extreme, from Grace Digital, you can take your music anywhere. This durable case is perfect for the beach, hiking and backpacking, camping or a boating trip. If you can get there, it’ll follow you and create the perfect soundtrack.

Usually I am headed to the outdoors to unplug and disconnect. But at the same time I want good tunes for my adventures. This is where The ECO Extreme is the perfect blend of outdoor and tech, or science and nature, if you will. It is hardy enough to know that my iPhone will be protected, and I can lug it to the most rugged terrain.

The carabineer clip makes it ideal for hanging from a tree, a tent of a backpack. But I have to admit my favorite spot to clip the ECO Extreme is to the d-ring on the front of my paddle board, making it possible to rock groovy tunes for long paddle missions.

The Test

So before I was willing to put y extremely expensive, and difficult to replace iPhone in the water I had to test out the ECO Extreme first. So I filled the bathtub, put a piece of paper in the case, and weighted it down underwater for 30 minutes. And sure enough, the paper came out perfectly dry.

The high-impact, shock-resistant design withstands drops and bumps. This case also makes it perfect to take into places I might be worried about my phone taking a spill. I love to just lean it up against the rocks while climbing, and not worry about it being stepped on, crushed by a rock, or any other incident.

While safety for my device was my biggest concern, the ECO Extreme does not sacrifice sounds quality. The 30 hours of battery life, with just three AA batteries, makes this case perfect for long adventures, and dynamic sound performance throughout. And the spacious internal storage compartment can hold your keys, credit cards, driver’s license and cash too.
