\"NuGuard<\/p>\n

Newer Technology confirmed that its popular NuGuard KX case<\/a>, the world\u2019s only iPhone case with kinetic energy X-Orbing gel, is ready to protect the amazing new iPhone 5Sannounced this week by Apple Inc. The KX case features a slim, one-piece design that combines a rugged, comfort-grip shell with a soft core. It\u2019s tough: the KX goes beyond Mil-Spec certified protection and is backed by a lifetime warranty. Encased in a NuGuard KX case, the iPhone easily survives 20-foot drops onto concrete \u2014 far more than the average parking-lot free-fall that lies ahead for many new iPhones.<\/p>\n

\u201cMost people need to protect their iPhone to the max \u2014\u00a0but they don\u2019t want to encase it in hard, bulky plastic. That\u2019s why we developed the NuGuard KX case. Today, we\u2019re pleased to announce that it works perfectly with the iPhone 5S<\/em>,\u201d said Larry O\u2019Connor, president of Newer Technology. \u201cWith its unique, made in the USA X-Orbing gel, the NuGuard KX installs in seconds to provide incredible protection against drops and scratches, while maintaining a remarkably slim, lightweight profile that highlights the forward-thinking look of your iPhone 5S<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Protection That Doesn\u2019t Compromise Size or Convenience<\/strong>
\nUnlike typical protective case materials that make other cases look like they\u2019re heading into battle, the NuGuard KX uses efficient X-Orbing gel technology to absorb and evenly distribute impacts \u2014 providing the ultimate protection in an incredibly slim profile. With its precision-molded buttons and accessibility cutouts, the NuGuard KX allows for full operability of all function buttons and access to all of the ports of the iPhone 5S. And with its one-piece design, adding the protection of a KX case to an iPhone 5S\u00a0takes just a few seconds.<\/p>\n

In a NuGuard KX Case, the iPhone Easily Survives a 20-Foot Drop Onto Concrete<\/strong>
\nTo prove its effectiveness, NewerTech documented the protective qualities and durability of NuGuard KX in extreme-use scenarios. To highlight Quanta Laboratories\u2019 Mil-Spec certification, the recognized and required Method 516.6 Procedure IV (Transit Drop) drop-test from 48 inches was recorded. But we didn\u2019t stop there: check out the 20-foot drop test or watch an iPhone 5 survive a drop from our wind turbine<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In addition to protecting the iPhone 5S, the revolutionary NuGuard KX provides ultimate peace-of-mind ownership. The best-engineered case deserves the best possible warranty, so the NuGuard KX is backed by a full replacement Lifetime Warranty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
