Top cases. Case – pepper spray
Smartphones have become an integral and indispensable thing in our lives. Considering that all phones are very similar, designers come up with great amount accessories so that each person can create an individual look for their smartphone. We present to your attention the most unusual and slightly crazy design solutions for smartphone cases. If such a design solution for your phone is not suitable for you personally, we offer more discreet, but no less attractive cases for smartphones.
1. Thumbs Up Ear Case
The first “exhibit” in our rating of strange iPhone cases “exhibit” is a stupid huge ear. You can get a “third” ear at any time by simply purchasing this unusual case on Amazon for $11. True, given the fact that it was created for the iPhone 4, it is unlikely that the owners of the new, larger size iPhone phones 6 will be able to appreciate the accessory at its true worth.
2. Hana iPhone Case
"Hana" means "nose" in Japanese, apparently - although that hardly excuses the inventors of this extravagant iPhone case shaped like a giant nose. According to the creators of the case, its owner can insert his fingers into the nostrils to hold the phone upright. Of course, that’s all iPhone owners needed! You can buy a nose case for about $10.
3. Hand case
Some time ago, a scary iPhone case in the shape of a hand, which looked eerily realistic, already made a lot of noise - and recently its creators released their second model. Apparently, the artificial human hand as a phone case has proven to be very popular: now fans of unusual accessories will be able to choose either the Nami’s Hand or Yamato’s Hand model, or even get a couple of additional limbs.
4. Case “Scrambled eggs and bacon”
Now that we're done discussing all sorts of body parts, it's time to move on to food—yes, there are plenty of food-themed iPhone cases out there for foodies, including this bacon-and-egg case. Surprisingly, it looks so realistic that it can whet the appetite of even a well-fed iPhone owner. And for vegetarians, we can recommend other models from the same Japanese company - covers in the form of noodles or onigiri, a traditional Japanese rice dish.
5. Hamburger docking station
This, of course, is not a case, but the accessory looks so cool that it deserves a place in the ranking - and, by the way, goes well with the scrambled egg case. The docking station is shaped like a hamburger and can also serve as a stand – ideal for an office. As in the case of the “fried egg case”, iPhone owners will be able to pamper themselves not only with “burgers”, but also, for example, with “sushi” or “pancakes” - there are a lot of options for original docking stations.
6. “iFork”
“An idea that inevitably had to appear” is how the creator of “iFork” describes his creation on the Etsy website (an online store where all kinds of handmade things are sold). iFork is a very original and also convenient stand for iPhone. The creator of the unusual stand also did not forget about those who prefer other cutlery - in addition to the “iFork”, iPhone owners will be able to replenish their arsenal with the “iSpoon”.
7. Case in the shape of an old telephone
The next big category in our ranking of the most unusual iPhone cases is huge and completely impractical (but so fun!) cases. And the most striking “exhibit” is a case in the shape of a huge phone from the era of the eighties, when Cell phones They just appeared and did not yet fit not only into a pocket, but even into a bag.
8. TableConnect iPhone Case
Here is, perhaps, the most extravagant accessory that you can think of for the iPhone, including in terms of size. TableConnect is a full-fledged desk with a 60-inch display on top and an iPhone that fits inside the desk. According to the creators, TableConnect allows you to connect your phone or tablet to a huge display and enjoy a completely new level of graphics and application scale. This “mobile” desk works not only with any iOS devices, but also with tablets/smartphones based on Android OS. Unfortunately, you cannot purchase it, but you can rent it, provided that you live in Austria, Germany or Switzerland.
9.ToneFone
This case is not only large, but also very heavy. Perhaps it can be called the heaviest iPhone case in the world. The idea is actually great: every time you pick up your iPhone, you'll strengthen your arm muscles! Of course, you can’t really carry such a case with you, but when you’re at home, you can easily use it as dumbbells for exercise. And ToneFone costs about $36.
10. JoeyBra iPhone Case
The very original JoeyBra case is an ideal option for lovers of nightclubs and parties who have to constantly carry a purse for small items and a phone. There is a miniature pocket on the side of this bra that just fits an iPhone - you just need to choose a dress so that you can get the phone out if necessary.
11. Shocker case
The next category in our rating of the most unusual iPhone cases are cases that can also be used for self-defense. Of course, their use will not be legal in all countries, but at least such cases deserve attention. And first of all, this is the “shocker” case The Yellow Jacket, with which you can successfully protect yourself even from robbers. This case turns your iPhone into a stun gun that can be used on anyone from burglars to annoying co-workers.
12. Case – pepper spray
If you don't like the idea of carrying a stun gun with you all the time, you can get another great self-defense tool - an iPhone case that doubles as pepper spray. And the best thing is that it is also available in different colors – for example, in a “ladies’” pink version.
13. Knucklecase
Unlike previous iPhone accessories, this case, although it looks like brass knuckles, is actually absolutely useless for self-defense. However, there is still some benefit from Knucklecase - according to at least, you can be sure that the phone will not slip out of your hand.
14. Tool case IN1
What do most people need from an iPhone case? – to protect the fragile device during a fall and, at the most, look stylish. Well, those who buy the IN1 case are probably not ordinary people, and superheroes who Everyday life Toothpicks, scissors, a pair of screwdrivers, two ballpoint pens and pliers. All this is compactly stored right in the iPhone case, which, moreover, is replete with different options colors and is not that expensive for such a multifunctional accessory - only $30.
15. Case-“ HDD»
With the help of such an original iPhone case, you can not only keep your device unharmed even in the most unfortunate falls, but also, for example, play a prank on someone you know. He looks exactly like old hard disk and is even equipped with the necessary barcodes and symbol codes.
16. Eyn wallet case
The number of all kinds of little things that you have to carry in your pockets or bag every day can be simply overwhelming - and the original Eyn wallet case is designed to solve this problem once and for all. This case has enough space not only for the iPhone itself, but also for small coins found along the way and three plastic cards. The price of this useful accessory is $25.
17. Joystick case
Of course, the list of phone cases in the shape of some retro gadgets - vintage photo cameras, tape cassettes or even Game Boy consoles - can take a very long time, but this case, made in the shape of the very first Nintendo controller, stands out from any list. Its peculiarity lies not only in its design, which exactly copies the design of the original joystick, but also in the fact that the buttons on the body can actually be pressed! Of course, the buttons are essentially useless, but the pleasure of holding an “almost real” old joystick from childhood in your hands is priceless!
18. Clutchie bag
This iPhone case, designed in the shape of a miniature clutch handbag, looks exactly like a real woman's bag, but in a smaller size. You won't be able to use it like a regular handbag - so those who purchased the Clutchie will actually have to carry one bag inside another, but original design iPhone case is definitely worth it. The accessory also includes a pair useful functions– sewn-in pocket for small items and a miniature mirror.
19. Case with built-in flash drive Veho SAEM S7
Cloud storage technologies are, of course, very useful, but not a single service like Dropbox can compare with a regular flash memory card, and this original iPhone case boasts just such a built-in flash drive. Of course, the memory capacity is not so large - the Veho SAEM S7 has only an 8 GB flash card built into it, and, by the way, there is no way to connect it to the iPhone itself.
20. Opener case
Even though lovers of alcoholic beverages have long learned to open bottles with almost anything - a lighter, a spoon, a door handle and even skates (!), no one argues that it is much more convenient to do this with a regular bottle opener. For such cases, the opener case is designed, which, thanks to the metal-reinforced design of the case, will not deteriorate, even if you constantly use it to uncork beer bottles. Those who buy an unusual case get the opportunity to download it for free special application for iPhone that tracks your drinking prowess.
21. Column case
All cases are the same. Or not?
What if we go to Moscow stores and find cases that cannot be bought online? And we will not just find, but select several of the best.
I found two of these. Real exclusives, for pleasant use! And two more can be ordered online if you want something new and pleasant.
1. Pitaka (ultra-thin, carbon)
Do you think you know what the most looks like? thin case for iPhone? Alas: all you have seen before are clumsy and thick fakes.
The unique Pitaka case is made of carbon fiber ( in common parlance - carbon), and has a thickness of 1.2 millimeters.
It is so thin and light that it is practically not felt on the smartphone and certainly does not increase the size of the already rather large 7 plus. The kit even includes protective glass to preserve the presentation of the smartphone for years.
Price: RUB 5,490 (only in re:Store retail stores)
Compatibility: iPhone 6S/6S plus, 7/7 plus.
2. Kuner Kuke Case (battery case with a secret)
And this case has not one, but two secrets at once:
Firstly, the case has a built-in battery, so you can feed your hungry smartphone with delicious electricity at any time.
And secondly, the case has a tray for a microSD flash drive: easy way increase iPhone memory without surgical interventions.
Just insert the flash drive into the case ( yes, it sounds unusual), put the case on your iPhone and voila: if you want, recharge your smartphone, or if you want, copy photos and videos to a flash drive and free up space on the iPhone itself.
3. SkinCase (like Apple, but cheaper)
The best silicone iPhone cases are made by Apple itself. ( for 3,990 rub.), different colors, everything is as it should be. But why pay extra for embossed if there is a line of SkinCase cases?
No, really: these are the same high-quality silicone cases, pleasant to the touch and durable to use. I suspect that they are even made in the same factories as the original Apple ones, only during non-working hours.
The assortment includes a bunch of flowers that cannot be found among “apple” ones. silicone cases. Some colors are just fire, and the price is reasonable.
Price: from 2,980 rub. (only in re:Store retail stores)
Compatibility: iPhone 6/6 plus, 6S/6S plus, 7/7 plus.
4. Moodz Nubuck Hard Coffee (I have to tell you about it!)
Imagine a white, fluffy rabbit galloping across a sunlit meadow. Or a velor toy that you just want to touch because it’s a tactile orgasm and that's all.
So, the Moodz Nubuck case is the quintessence of pleasant tactile sensations, thanks to the soft velvety material on the back.
There are tons of colors to choose from and compatible with all current models iPhone and the opportunity to purchase this accessory at a discount simply leaves no chance - you have to take it!
Compatibility: 6S/6S plus, 7/7 plus.
Is it worth visiting re:Store? - Yes!
If you want to find a unique accessory for your iPhone, don't rely on the Internet. Most likely, on your way to or from work you see a sign every day - don’t be lazy to go there.
I found a lot of accessories that they don't have on their website, and you will definitely have luck too.
Please rate it.
How do we extend the life of a smartphone? The most obvious answer: protective case- does not always correctly solve the task assigned to him. It is enough to see reviews of various exotic cases to understand that chaos reigns in this area. Covers are turning from a means of protection into a means of self-expression, losing their main function- protect your device and increase the comfort of its use.
Even those accessories, whose main task is to surprise with their originality, in practice turn out to be not suitable for use - sometimes they are inconvenient, and sometimes they resemble equipment for photography, beautiful in the studio, but useless in everyday life.
The imagination of designers is almost limitless, but some cases would be better off remaining prototypes “on paper.” We have collected several examples of extraordinary cases, and selected each of them real replacement from our range, ready to use.
The first representative of the “weird world of cases”, turning your iPhone into something like a Leica camera. What is most surprising, in addition to the general external similarity, you can find fake control buttons on the case, a protruding lens cover and even a viewfinder slot.
But you can attach an attached lens attachment to the camera slot, thereby depriving the phantasmagoric design of the case of its resemblance to a camera.
If you like the premium materials from which Leica cameras are made, it is better to choose a case for iPhone 6/6S, 7/8, iPhone X, XS and XR.
This is a protective case for modern iPhones made of ultra-strong aramid fiber. Built-in plates do not interfere wireless charging, and the unique material emphasizes its originality.
None unnecessary elements, strong and reliable design, stylish appearance- this is much better than the “Leica case” that magnifies iPhone sizes almost doubled.
Next representative: submarine case!
This “aluminum submarine” ensures the safety of diving with a smartphone to a depth of 100 meters, with shock-absorbing and waterproof rubberized inserts.
All that remains is to find the reason why you might even need a smartphone at such a depth - mobile connection is reliably drowned out by the water column, and to photograph underwater beauty at such a depth you need at least a deep-sea flashlight and appropriate optics.
If you need water protection without extremes, choose a waterproof case
It is made of a material that is pleasant to the touch and does not slip in your hands, which will avoid unwanted falls. All necessary functions and the buttons remain available for use - this is a good choice for the beach, fishing and for any type of water recreation. It will save you from water in the bathroom, it is not afraid of heavy rain and a sudden attack from a water pistol - this is much more useful than protection for the sake of protection deep under water.
You can easily find videos of a Lego case being dropped from incredible heights. Well, the shock-absorbing properties of the plastic and the spectacular “self-disassembly” of the case will not leave anyone indifferent, but the other disadvantages overshadow all the dubious advantages.
It is angular, smooth edges slide, and even modifications where the volumetric connecting elements of the constructor only cover back smartphones leave no chance for it convenient use. Try putting a Lego structure in your pocket and then pulling it out several times - there will simply be no questions about the “practicality” of such a case, albeit a bright one. Perhaps it a good option for children, but not for daily use.
For reliable protection better use 
Like Lego, it is painted in bright and rich colors, but at the same time it will easily protect your iPhone from chips, dents, scratches, vibration, dirt, dust and rain. It is made of heavy-duty polycarbonate, coated in shock-absorbing silicone, fits comfortably in the hand - it is almost impossible to drop it.
The accessory will absorb the main impact force during a fall. The display is also protected, and the case was tested in accordance with the US Department of Defense standard 810F.
The second option for reliable protection is .
The case is firmly attached to the smartphone using steel bolts and a hex key that come included, and a metal leg on the back of the case allows it to be used as a stand. Much more reliable than Lego!
Even if you are delighted with soft and pleasant-to-touch cases, you should not let this passion turn your smartphone into an unprecedented winter beast. List weak sides This solution can take a very long time: faux fur quickly wears out, gets dirty easily and will not withstand any active use, even with careful storage and transportation.
Better pay attention to.
It's made from a combination of leatherette, a durable polycarbonate frame, and a special SensArray layer that allows you to answer or reject incoming calls without opening the lid. The case provides easy access to the elements iPhone interface And full protection along with a stylish appearance.
Another alien from the program “Crazy Hands” is a cover made of hot glue. Even if we assume that creating such a “case” is a truly exciting activity, it is still difficult to recommend it for use in practice. It's not neat, it's not very elegant, it doesn't last, and it's definitely not very reliable.
It is made of plastic, which indicates its durability and light weight. The main thing is that this material is pleasant to the touch and does not slip. The special surface does not allow leaving streaks and fingerprints. If desired, the pattern can be applied on top of such a cover with a glue gun, using it as a reliable frame.
All-metal cases are very strong, that's for sure. But the practicality of using them in winter is a big question - after all, as soon as you forget your gloves, answering a call becomes an insurmountable obstacle in severe frost. It is not without reason that manufacturers of practical cases use metal only as a frame, adding silicone, polycarbonate or other materials to the back and side surfaces.
If you need protection without frostbitten hands, choose a cover like .
It not only has waterproof properties, but also protects the device from dirt or snow, and saves the screen and body from impacts on a hard surface. The case meets IP-68 and MIL STD 810F-516 standards, can withstand drops of up to 2 meters and is equipped with screen and camera lens protection. This is much more important than the “metallic shine” of impressive-looking steel cases.
The second protected option is a case.
The hybrid design of the accessory provides high-quality protection for the communicator during mechanical influences. The inner layer of microfiber protects the surface of the phone from scratches and abrasions.
Even if horror is your favorite movie genre, you should stay away from cringe-inducing cases at any time except Halloween. Surely your friends will appreciate the original design, which refers to the latest Stephen King book or your worst nightmares, but those around you will also be able to see such a case. A scary (and sometimes embossed) picture can simply frighten children, and not in every office such a case will look acceptable on the desktop.
If you want to highlight your love for books and reading, choose a stylish case
It is made of genuine leather, and compartments on the inside of the accessory allow you to store bank cards, business cards and money. It can also be used as a stand for comfortable viewing of videos or Internet surfing.
The sophisticated leather binding with gold lettering will allow others to freely interpret the name, and overall it is a stylish and expensive accessory that is pleasant to look at and comfortable to use.
We have listed only a few of the cases that are not very suitable for everyday life. You can continue endlessly - these are outlandish edible cases and numerous cases, carrying your gadget in which it can be damaged or dirty. Poorly painted plastic can stain the body of your smartphone, and loose edges of the case increase the chances of grains of sand getting between the body and the case.
To avoid these risks, choose high-quality cases from proven materials. For example, for the iPhone X/XS, you can choose one made of durable polypropylene and high-quality fabric.
For flagships on Android, I can recommend - for Samsung Note8.
The base of the case is a plastic lining that will protect back panel and the sides of the smartphone from shocks and chips. The thick front part of the case will protect your smartphone screen from scratches, dust and dirt.
Choose and let your gadgets last a long time! And it’s better to just admire the outlandish cases, as if they came straight from the pages of a science fiction book, on the Internet.
