With the case I just figure the one it comes with is the best case i've ever seen offered first party at no extra cost.

If you drop the thing though outside of said carrying case it's toast. it's way too big and heavy to survive any real fall. I'd be very surprised if even some kind of otterbox would work (but I admit i've never looked into it.)
