New OtterBox Armor case will protect your Apple iPhone 4/4S from water

The OtterBox Defender series is one of the better selling cases for the Apple iPhone 4 and Apple iPhone 4S. Now, the company has raised the stakes and will be soon offering the OtterBox Armor series. Unlike the boxy style of the Defender, the Armour is more of a protective shell. While OtterBox hasn't released that much info on the product outside of a video and web site, the Armor is expected to be a "waterproof, thermo-plastic shell, precision fit to 1/3000th of an inch in accuracy, and [is] locked down behind a medical-grade stainless steel latch."

Of course, to some, it might seem a little late in the game to offer a case for the Apple iPhone 4 and Apple iPhone 4S considering that all indications are that the next iteration of the phone will launch around October with a larger screen and could have much different dimensions than the current models sport. Still, we suppose if OtterBox could capture just a small percentage of the current number of iPhone 4/4S users, it will all be worth it to the company. OtterBox says that right now the case is being launched only with the Apple iPhone in mind and it will explore making the case for other models.

So far there is no word on pricing and availability, although there is a cool video that we invite you to watch.
