PowerSkin unveils their NFC-enabled battery case for the Samsung Galaxy S3

While some folks roam the world with their devices unprotected, there is countless others out there who prefer to not leave such things to chance. Personally, I don't use cases normally but every now and then something interesting comes along that brings some new added functionality to a plain jane case that makes me want to give it a go. Such is the situation with the new PowerSkin NFC-enabled battery case for the Samsung Galaxy S3. Aside from offering protection, it has a whole set of other features built right into it, most notably NFC:

• On / off button located on the side gives users power on demand
• 1500 mAh rechargeable battery extends talk time up to 2.83 hours (up to 97 hours standby)
• NFC enabled for quick information sharing
• Smart Power Management shuts off PowerSkin when phone is fully charged for zero loss of power
• Included cable allows users to sync data while re-charging
• LED battery lights display charging status
• One-piece, soft-touch, silicone case slides on seamlessly and protects against shocks, drops and dust

Rather than taking your device out of the case to use NFC, it's right there for you and ready use. If you're looking to pick one up and give it a go, it'll set you back $80. However; for a limited time PowerSkin is offering a free portable speaker bonus until September 19th. You can hit the link below for more details or to purchase one directly.
