Recently, the ever-wonderful and kind people at ZAGG bestowed another gift upon me. With my excited news regarding the arrival of my new iPhone 4S, they sent along a little Christmas surprise that was very much appreciated. I eagerly awaited the package and when it arrived I discovered a ZAGGskin with a beautiful and simple rainbow design on a white background, perfect because of my artistic personality and the fact that I chose a white iPhone. Also very felicitous because these were not details that I shared with ZAGG. Anyway, onward past my impressed excitement and onto the analysis.

With its sleek new style the Trident Kraken A.M.S. case for Apple iPhone 4/4S over powers the original Kraken case. The creativity definitely was put into overdrive when it came to creating such a solid case that can perform in almost all adventures of your life. If you're hittin' the bike trails with family or friends you can use the attachment (sold separately) to hook onto your handlebars, or if you are a photographer with your iPhone like myself and you want to capture a steady picture there is a tripod connection (sold separately), and if you get lost in the boonies and need a little GPS to help guide you back to main roads without taking your eyes off the road there is a window suction unit (also sold separately) to use for securing the case to your windshield.

LifeProof has announced that their cases are compatible with the new iPhone 4S.

The fine people over at Trident Case sent us over one of their Kraken series iPhone 4 cases to try out. I must say that at first glance this case looks daunting.
