Todd interviews Jess from Otterbox about their upcoming iPhone 5 defender series cases. The new Defender Series charging cases will double the battery life of an iPhone with the same protection that Otterbox is known for. The new cases come with an app that tells you the status of your phone battery, the case battery and estimates how long before you need to plug in the charger. The cases have a Micro USB connector so they are compatible with chargers and cords you have for many other phones and devices.

The cases for iPhone 5 will be available soon as they are approved by Apple. The MSRP is $129. For more information, check out otterbox.com
