Tell us a little about yourself?
I’m 37 years old and live in Ontario Canada. I’m Head Cook in a Chinese Restaurant and have been there for about 12 years. In addition to doing case review videos I also enjoy music (I sing), as well as cycling, movies, reading books, and tech stuff.
What phone do you currently use? Love it or hate it?
I’m currently using the iPhone 3GS 32GB. I upgraded from the iPhone 3G 8GB. I love it so much it’s become an extension of my hand. I’m turning into quite an Apple fan and am considering the purchase of a MacBook Pro in the future.
How did you first hear about case-mate?
I first heard about case-mate from watching YouTube case reviews for the iPhone by people like Carlos, itsmemorphious, as well as other reviewers.
What are your favorite case-mate products and why?
I am a big fan of the Smooth and Barely There cases, they provide very good protection and are slim and form fitting. They don’t add a lot of bulk to the phone but still provide good protection as well as coming in some very cool colors.
What features do you look for in a case?
I like cases that provide full coverage of my phone, including most of the chrome, without adding a lot of bulk or interfering with the touch screen. The Smooth is great for this, but I would like to see the sim card tray covered as well as some additional colors.
Are there any other products that you would like to see case-mate offer?
It would great if case-mate could offer the Barely There with a full covered back, no cutout for the Apple logo so the logo would not get scratched. Or the Naked case in clear with a full covered back.
You have a popular YouTube channel how did you get involved with doing case reviews?
I started doing case reviews about 8 months ago. Another well known reviewer made a video response video to help others start doing reviews and get noticed. After the first few videos, I was bitten by the reviewing bug and the rest is history. My channel has evolved into what it is now. I really enjoy doing reviews and getting feedback from my viewers as well as the companies whose products I am reviewing. It’s a great situation where we can all help each other out. Sharing our experiences with a certain product or company helps them improve their products.
