In-Win D and H-Frame PC cases: Tubes, and LEDs and aluminum oh my! (hands-on)

Let's face it, PC cases are often pretty lame -- and traditionally something we don't chase down -- though In-Win's two launches at CES definitely beg for an exception. Heck, what can you say about a case? The D-Frame (pictured above) is pretty stellar with its glass sides, orange welded aluminum tubes, amazing fasteners, and blue LEDs would be an easy choice if we were building a new box around these parts. Though, the H-Frame with its radiator or layered gasket look is also a strong contender as we really dig its layered look and the solid metal thing it has going on. Both of these cases are seriously strong-looking, fairly hefty to haul, and in the case of the D-Frame crushproof. Look for these at you favorite In-Win retailer sometime this month for a hefty $399 each.In-Win D and H-Frame PC cases: Tubes, and LEDs and aluminum oh my!

Spigen iPhone 5 Slim Armor Cases hands-on

Now that accessory companies are finally caught up with the latest iPhone mania, we’re seeing a steady stream of cool cases that conform to both protection and style needs. Smartphone accessory maker, Spigen, is a well-known for crafting some premium stuff for the beloved smartphone already, but with their latest case series, they’re making it more affordable to pick up than previous offerings. If you’re all about maintaining the iPhone 5’s impeccable industrial design, then you might be interested to know that Spigen’s Slim Armor Cases might be the right fit for you.

Before getting down and dirty with the details, we have to say right off the bat that we’re digging the $17.99 cost of them, which is aggressively priced compared to their other offerings. Comprised out of two components, a rubbery-like thermoplastic polyurethane case with a tougher polycarbonate midsection, you get that desired balance of protection and sturdiness – keeping the handset safe even in the event of some minor drops or falls. At the same time, it’s form fitting as well to maintain the iPhone 5’s sleek profile. Buttons are still easily accessible too, but it’s worth mentioning that you might have some issues connecting specific headphones, since the opening for the headset jack is rather tight.

Ultimately, it simply comes down to which color scheme best fits your style needs. So let’s take a quick look at the difference between them.
