A Case with a Conscience

Besides being just plain cool, Coconut’s series of phone cases gives anyone who’s creative a chance to make the world a better place! Each design is crowdsourced from people around the globe, & each color represents a different cause. With each purchase a donation is made to that case’s respective charity. From planting trees in the heart of Kenya to treating HIV globally, buyers can show their support for their individual passions in a tangible object that gives back! Don’t miss the video on this great cause!

Each case offers sleek, dependable protection that’s been customized for every phone model. Featuring a soft-touch coating and a two piece hardshell design that provides complete coverage for all critical corners and edges, while still allowing easy access to all buttons and ports. The removable bottom slips off for easy charging with all brands of docks and cables. A rubber interior bumper adds shock absorption as well as a secure fit.

Hoo Whistled?

Well, this Smarty-pants iPhone case did! Did someone ask why? That’s because the smartphone case has a whistle integrated into it.

Don’t call a superhero…. simply use the Hoo Whistle Case and save the day!

Soft as Puddin’

In a world full of rigid, ultra-thin cases, the iPooding case stands out as a squishy, playful alternative for those in touch with their softer side. For enhanced ergonomics and shock absorbance, the clear urethane case is filled with harmless liquid paraffin. For a little flair, each colorful case is filled with floating dots that whirl around like a snow-globe. Ain’t it cute?!

Bomie’s boom system

Non è il primo ampli passivo per smartphone che appare su Think, basti pensare esempio a Megaphone. Bomie’s boom è stato sviluppato dall’olandese Jeroen Bomers, ricavato da un unico blocco di legno del Malawi, riproduce il suono amplificandolo semplicemente inserendo il device nella fessura della base.

iWhale

This lovable iPhone 5 case’s iconic shape mimics the silhouette of a whale coming to the water’s surface to breath! While it’s uber-cute, it’s also highly functional. The tactile, curved back provides stability and comfort in the user’s hand, and the tail allows it to grip to a number of surfaces like handlebars, screens, or rear-view mirrors. Another adorable detail, the “blowhole,” is actually a 3.5mm port for headphones!

The iPhone Theater Experience

Sure, the iPhone is capable of playing full-length movies… but what’s the point? Mr. Perfect isn’t so perfect when it comes to the right ergonomics for watching your favorite flicks. That’s where the iPhone Theater comes in. It’s a headphone/phone holder combo with a slightly steampunk aesthetic. I chuckled a little too… but it’s actually pretty awesome! I don’t care how many looks I get… I waaaaants it!

Divide And View

The Always With Three is a very innovative approach to making smartphones easier to use. Most of them are now offering a decent size screen, however the multiple tasks and features that are packed make them a tad overwhelming to use. The idea here is to have three dynamic pop-up screens that expand when used in the pop-up mode. One screen is dedicated for use as a keyboard (and joystick) while the other two navigate between media player and display. Basically an expandable device, but with innovative variations!
