Which protection should I choose for my new phone? Who hasn't asked themselves this question? Military grade cases are becoming more and more common and! But more and more brands are certifying that their cases comply with the military certification MIL-STD 810-G. Today the options are limitless! Here are our favourite brands of military-grade protection cases.
What does MIL-STD 810-G certification mean?
The MIL-STD-810G is a certification issued by the US Army's Technology Development Test Laboratory. This certification means that the case in question has passed the US Army's tests for durability.
The tests mainly concern resistance:
- To dropping
- To wind and rain
- To vibration
- To sand and dust
- To humidity
- To extreme tempratures
- To high pressure
Make sure before your purchase that the case you are going for has been tested for what you are trying to protect your phone from. For example, our cases meet the MIL-STD-810G 516.6 standard. This is the standard that ensures resistance to shocks and drops of at least 1.2 metres.
