Keep your Apple iPhone 5 safe from drops, bumps and shock with this OtterBox Defender Series 39127BBR case that features 3-layer protection with polycarbonate and silicone materials for durability. A belt clip holster allows easy transport.

Since my iPhone 3G, I've been a heavy believer in the OtterBox. Three phones later, the OtterBox has protected each iPhone and an iPad from multiple drops, three kids and even a few light spills. The iPhone 5 case is as sturdy as the others, but unfortunately it lacks in the looks department. Gone is the ridged, rubber shell, and the option for the color red. Now it's a solid rubber coating with several offbeat colors available. But to me, protection is more important than appearance. And the new OtterBox serves its purpose.
What's great about it: Tough, durable
What's not so great: Appearance

iPhone 5 features a 4" Retina display, the powerful A6 chip, an 8.0MP iSight camera with panorama, ultrafast wireless, iOS 6 and iCloud. Yet it's the thinnest, lightest iPhone ever.

The iPhone 5 is by far the best smartphone to ever hit the market. The new design makes the phone much lighter, battery life is greatly improved over the previous model and the LTE speed is phenomenal! The only drawback -- the ease and speed of use makes it tempting to record lots of video and download lots of apps, eating up the 16GB pretty quickly. My suggestion, shell out the extra $100 for the 32 GB model. Oh, and invest in a Otterbox.
What's great about it: Lightweight, camera, LTE, battery life

With the breakthrough Retina display, 5.0MP iSight camera, and ultrafast wireless, iPad (3rd Generation) is more immersive than ever before. Surf the Web, check your e-mail, flip through photos, watch a movie, play a game, thumb through a book or magazine, and more. iPad gives you a smarter, more intuitive, more fun way to do everyday things — and thanks to 200,000 apps1 in the App Store — things you can't even imagine.

I bought the new iPad the day it came out, replacing my first-generation 3G, 16GB with a 4G, 16GM. The first thing I noticed was the amazing picture quality. I didn't watch a lot of video on my first iPad and didn't plan on doing so, but because of the incredible retina display, I find myself using my iPad more and more as a TV, adding subscriptions to Hulu Plus, HBO Go and MLB. I've also downloaded more videos from iTunes, which is why after a week I went back to Best Buy and traded it in for the 32 GB version.
The "4G" speed is a huge upgrade from 3G, but be careful as it's easy to get carried away watching videos on 4G and burn up your data plan.
I sense the battery life is shorter, although Apple claims its similar to previous iPads. This could be because I use the new iPad much more than its predecessors, and use it to watch video (which is surely a battery drain).
My biggest concern is how the iPad heats up after long periods of use. I sense this will become a bigger concern as the weather heats up. Not sure how it will hold up poolside in a Georgia summer. I have this feeling Apple may be dealing with some issues here in the future.
What's great about it: Picture, 4G LTE, speed
What's not so great: Short battery life, heats up

Shinedown shows they have rock staying power with their latest. They've mastered the melodic hard rock formula like peers Disturbed and Godsmack. Singable, yet bang-your-head melodies. Also, a great band to see live if you haven't yet.
What's great about it: It rocks
What's not so great: A couple slower songs
