Why would you ruin the iPhone’s immaculate design? Well, turns out those luscious chamfered edges are of this world after all: They scratch, just like any other phone. OK, fine maybe we were wrong and you need a case. But if you’re going armour your iPhone, at least use case that actually guarantees it will protect your phone.
Here you have it, the return of the mighty Cellhelmet.
Sure, the iPhone 5 Cellhelmet costs 35 quid, but that’s a £35 insurance policy for much of the bad stuff that can happen to your phone. As with the Cellhelmets of yore, the company provides accidental damage coverage for everything excluding scratches to the aluminium and water damage. That means if you drop your precious new iPhone 5 and the screen shatters, Cellhelmet will cover the cost of a new one.
Not a bad deal! We especially like that, as cases go, the Cellhelmet isn’t a gaudy monstrosity. The subtle protection is available for pre-order now. [Cellhelmet]

Rather than a case that comes with an insurance policy, this is an insurance policy that comes with a free case. As with any policy make sure you read the small print, like how much excess you have to pay, before buying it.
Also “OK, fine maybe we were wrong and you need a case.” Giz US, admitting they may be wrong? Time to plan that skiing trip to hell.
I always thought you more of the sledging type Darrell.
To be honest I’ve never skied, but I figured it would be a good excuse to check out my future home.
As long as there’s no T-bar in hell. I hate those things.
Haha I used to ride those when I was six or seven and was forever being catapulted into the air.
after 2 months mine still looks pretty good , i dont have a case , i throw it in my pocket …
but as with anything i have just spent 500 odd quid on , i look after it , ie don’t stick it in the pocket with coins, allays put it on my desk on something soft / paper etc ( allays have something laying around )
hate cases

Yeah right, i’ll take my changes with another cheaper case. (that is, if I was crazy enough to own an iPhone *Threw up a little in my mouth*).
