The Ballistic SG: A Great iPhone 4 Case Just Got Slimmer
As much as we love our Ballistic HC, we realize it’s not for everyone; we know everyone loves the protection this amazing iPhone case offers, but its “robust” form factor is not exactly pocket friendly. Well, now there’s no excuse for not giving your iPhone 4 the protection it deserves, thanks to the Ballistic SG; it offers the excellent protection you’ve come to expect from Ballistic, but in a slimmer form-factor. While the HC offers 4 layer protection, the SG (which stands for Shell Gel) offers 3…an outer shell made of soft Thermoplastic Polyurethane, fused to a middle layer of tough polycarbonate and an inner layer of soft silicone with reinforced corners. Tech terms aside, this case is made to take a beating while still feeling svelte in the pocket–we’ll have a more detailed report as soon as we get our hands on one. The Ballistic SG can be found at AT&T retail stores and at att.com, as well as goballisticcase.com for $29.99. Check out the press release after the break for more info…
Ballistic Unveils Durable, Yet Slim Protection for iPhone 4
Ft. Lauderdale, FL (October 28, 2010) – Ballistic, designers of advanced mobile accessories, debuts the ultimate in slim protective cases – The Ballistic® SG™ (Shell Gel). Designed for iPhone 4, Ballistic SG is an ideal solution for customers who desire a slimmer form factor but also demand the utmost durability.
This case integrates an outermost layer, which is made of soft Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) for shock absorption. This TPU layer is co-molded to the middle layer which is made of tough impact resistant polycarbonate. These two layers combine to offer a formidable defense against everyday damage. The inner-most layer is made of soft silicone, with strong Ballistic Corners™ to absorb the shock of a drop.
“The Ballistic SG is meant to offer consumers the best of both worlds, protection and style,” said Adam Stubin, VP of Business Development, Ballistic. “With the brand new SG case, you can feel confident that your iPhone 4 will not only survive the worst of drops but will also be slim enough to carry around comfortably.”

About Ballistic
The Ballistic® brand was realized 6 years ago when the owner was getting out of his car and his phone fell, cracking the screen. He believed there had to be a way to offer consumers a high level of protection in a case that still looked good.
The Ballistic engineers designed private label holsters and belt clips that simply would not break. During this time, the company made millions of OEM branded holsters and belt clips.
As smart phones became more popular, the need for drop protection became necessary. Ballistic engineers examined their competitor’s products and knew they could do better. The result is now a line of a variety of Ballistic cases. These cases provide the most advanced degree of drop protection currently in the market.
We think everyone will drop their phone. We say, “Just Drop It!”–as long as you are using a Ballistic case. Ballistic cases are Designed to Survive Life!™
