Hey guys it's Olivia and I'm back with another video.
So as you guys know because I've made way too many videos about it;
I recently bought the iPhone 12 Pro. It is the Pacific Blue version, 256GB, all the things.
And as you can see there is no case on this phone. In my history of owning phones I haven't always been
good to them, as you can see from my iPhone 4. The back is immaculate, but the front not so much.
Anyways, so I bought this on November 27th, but then I picked it up on the 28th. And the day that
I am filming this is December 17th and there is still no case on this phone. Why? Because I bought
a case that was only available online, and it was only available from America, and I live in Canada
if you don't know. So I had to wait for this to ship and I didn't come on a plane, it got driven
here on a truck. So it took forever. So just for reference I ordered the case on November 27th and
it came today in the mail on December 17th; so that is 14 business days. So you know from the
title that it is a Popsocket Case. So here -- this wrapping is new. I've gotten a couple of
things from Popsockets. This one is green and it has their name on it and all the stuff.
But yeah, this is definitely some new packaging. So this is an Otter + Pop Case which is an OtterBox
with a Popsocket built in. So I have Popsockets' first version of this. One of them the top came off,
but the gist is still the same. When you turn it sideways it actually pops flat because
the Popsockets are built into the case; there is a crevice in the case for the Popsockets.
So this one is on my iPhone 5S and I got this years ago; I want to say I got this in 2016. So this is like a
4 year old case and they don't sell this anymore. I did do an unboxing of this case if you guys are
interested and want to watch that. It is one of my first few videos so my camera presence isn't as
great as it is now, but anyways if you want to check that out I'll link it here.
But this is Popsockets' new and improved version of it and they've teamed up with OtterBox to make,
like, this strong case that also has one Popsocket in it and not two. So let's open this
real quick because I've done a lot of talking thus far. So it just comes in an envelope.
A really sticky envelope, ooh. I'm going to take this and I'm just going to cut across the top.
This is probably not the safest way to cut something so don't follow me. Don't do what I do.
Ok, so we've got it open and out comes the case.
And as you can see the case is clear, but it's clear with little glitter sparkles on it.
So basically they've had Popsocket Cases for a while. When I had my iPhone 8 I was thinking about
getting the white marble one, but then I knew that I was going to be upgrading my phone soon so I was
like, why spend a whole bunch of money on a case just to replace my phone a couple months later.
So I waited and I'm so happy that they came out with a clear case because then now you're going to be
able to see the colour of my brand new phone. So they had a just regular clear case and then they
had the clear one with the sparkles. And I chose the clear one with the sparkles because, why not.
So then to open this up, there's like a little piece of tape right here that I'm just going to
break open like so. Then this pulls out and the top comes open
and out comes the case. So it is an OtterBox Symmetry case and the colour is called Stardust.
So the other one is I'm pretty sure just called Clear and then this one is Stardust because it has
the little sparkles, which I don't know if you can see. But if I take my phone which has been
caseless for way too long, I am so happy that I'm about to have a case on this, if I go like so...
I can't even get it in.
Wow, this is actually really hard to get in. Ok, I have 3 corners in; last corner.
Ooh there we go; finally got it on. Oh gosh you can't really see the blue through the sparkles;
I really thought you'd be able to see it. But here is the Popsocket that pops out of the back,
like so. And then I can hold it like this. Ooh look at that, look at that; have my Popsocket finally.
'Cause this phone is a fair bit bigger than my old phone. Not like too too much, but enough.
And like, not having something to grip on to, like, I'm not going to lie I've almost dropped
this a few times. And especially since like I'm an Uber driver, and I'll be like getting in and
out of my car. I have, like, a car vent clip so I have it as my GPS, whatever whatever; and then
I take it out, go to the person's house, swipe to deliver, put it back on my dashboard, take it out,
deliver it, back on my dashboard; and so I'm just taking up my phone multiple times in a few hours
and I'm not going to lie, I've almost dropped it a couple of times. But now I don't have to worry
about 1; losing grip because hello, hello, but even if I do lose grip I have an OtterBox on this thing.
I've never had an OtterBox case before. This case on my iPhone 8, yes there's stuff in the case;
disregard that. This case right here I got for like $5 at like the flea market or something.
So this is my first ever OtterBox and it's protecting my 1700 Canadian dollar phone, so yeah.
Yeah, it's worth it. For pricing, I bought this on a Black Friday deal;
I got it on Friday November 27th. And so the original price of this is $59.95USD,
but I got it for $44.96USD, and then I had to pay $10USD for shipping. So the total came to $54.96
US dollars, which then converts to $73.39 Canadian dollars. So like, almost a $75 case, but like that
pales in comparison to the $1,700 for the phone. So you know what, I'm content with the amount that I spent.
Now I have a new case, and a Popsocket built in, and even the Popsocket is clear;
look at that, look at that. And this is one of the new Popsockets that I've never had before,
where you can change the top. So it's like -- ok, ooh I've never done this before. Ok, so I have the
Popsocket, and then if I turn it counterclockwise it comes off... right? Did I do that right?
Ooh! There we go. Oh my gosh, I got it off. So, let's do it again. So I had to like, push down on it
and turn it counterclockwise.
It's a lot easier to do when I'm not trying to hold it up to the camera.
Ok, let's try this; click and turn.
Aw, I did it -- ok, I'm going to press my thumbs on it and turn it counterclockwise.
They make it look like -- sound so easy on their website; it's not.
Oh, there we go, oh my gosh. So I like -- it's kind of hard to show
while holding it up 'cause this was a struggle, but basically they're swappable. So I just
took off the Popsocket and now you can really see the indent for where the Popsocket is,
so that I actually pops flat into the case. But yeah, so I can swap this out with other tops that
I may have, I don't have any because this is my first ever swappable Popsocket. So you can get it with
the case with the swappables or you can get it with like the base, like the regular ones that
stick onto your phone and then you can swap the tops. But yeah, so then if I put this back on;
yeah it's way easier to put on than to take off. But yeah, so as you can see it pops flat,
like, flush into the case, versus this one where it's clearly sticking out the back.
So it's not like, flush flush, but it's definitely a lot less out than the regular ones that just stick on to the back of your phone.
So yeah, I'll have a link to this one in the description
if you're interested in getting this specific one. I will say that the colour doesn't show through as
well as I thought it would, so maybe if you like really want to show off the colour of your phone
then you should just go with the regular clear one, but I'm still content with the case,
like, I'm not returning it or anything. But yeah, this is my new phone case and I love
having a Popsocket, and my phone is going to be super
protected because it's in an OtterBox. And also I did get a screen protector for it the day after I got it.
So I got it on the 28th and on the 29th I made sure to get a screen protector. So the screen
has been protected pretty much since I got it, but the body of it has not been, but now it is.
Like I could drop this, I'm not going to, but I could drop this and it would likely be very ok.
But yeah, so that's it, that's it; that's my new updated Popsocket Case unboxing. My first one
was from like 2016. I believe it's the 35th video on my channel if I remember correctly, I don't know.
But it was like my first video to surpass 10K views and 20K views, it's currently sitting
at like 24K views, I don't know. Anyways, so this was a very popular case when I first unboxed it,
and so I don't know if it's, I don't know, older sister will be as popular,
but I wish it had two, but I'll live with the one. I knew it only had one when I ordered it,
and it's in a good position for me. 'Cause I -- with my one on this phone I had it in the middle,
so it works for where I would put it. If you would typically put yours at the bottom
or near the top, then maybe it's not going to be well located for what you would like, but for me
it works well and I like it. So yeah, here's the updated Popsocket Case, only one and not
two but I personally like the position of it. And I also like that this is swappable so I can
switch it out for anything that I want. And so it's like, I don't have to get a
whole new case when I want a new look, I can just swap the top of my Popsocket.
But yeah, um, I've been talking for way too long, this video is a lot longer than I thought it was going to be.
But just a quick show of what it looks like; so this is the front,
and then this is the side,
and the back which we've seen a lot of, the other side, the top, and the bottom.
So yeah, I've had this case for all of, like, 5 seconds but it's great and I adore it, and yeah.
So that's all for this week's video I hope you enjoyed it, if you did be sure to give it a thumbs up.
