Agent 18 Shield Limited case for iPhone 4Provides: Hard shell protection from shocks, scratches and scuffs
Developer: Agent 18
Minimum Requirements: iPhone 4
Price: $29.95
Availability: Now

Your iPhone 4; it’s cool, but it isn?t cheap, and going all the way to the local Mac store to get it fixed isn?t exactly a barrel of fun, either. So let’s work on ways you can prevent damage.

The first line of defense is a solid case, one that will protect your device in the case of a minor drop, scraping against keys in your purse, or one of the million other small annoyances your phone will inevitably endure. The hardshell cases by Agent 18 do this job, and they do it quite well. If you want to keep your phone safe from the occasional drop or scratch, the Shield Limited will be what you need. It will make the phone a little fatter in your pocket, but if you put it in the back and let people assume that it’s a wallet, you can impress.

The case slides on and off easily enough with a removable bottom piece. The holes for buttons and parts are all correctly placed and large enough to not cause problems if you have fat fingers. The power button’s hole has a recess in the case that allows for easy access.Unfortunately, it also lets quarters in your pocket tap the button as well.

The case could be better fitted on the front to give you some shielding if it hits the ground.  It is raised a bit, but unless you happen to drop your iPhone on a perfectly even surface, it won?t do much good. Just be aware that the tapering is minimal. 

The case comes in a few stylish patterns, but they all bear the same physical design.

On the whole, the Shield Limited is a reasonably priced option, but the lack of screen protection means this one is for adults only.
