We've been on record saying that your brand new iPhone 5 doesn't need a case, that it should always stay naked. But we get it, some of you guys like the peace of mind of protection. Grandmas love plastic on their couches! But what happens when your iPhone case actually scratches your iPhone? GASPSHRIEKFREAKTHEEFFOUT. It could happen. Read More >>

We might, at some point, stop being awed by 3D printed products. But that hasn't happened yet, meaning this 3D printed skull iPhone case is pretty damn slick. Read More >>

Attention case-makers, accessory-builders and generally curious minds: the iPhone 5 blueprints have been made available to those with an Apple dev account. And, even though Joel Johnson no longer has a dev account, he somehow managed to procure the prints. Thanks, Uncle Joel! Read More >>

After the initial round of rather eye-wateringiPhone 5 network prices, you'll no doubt have guessed that, after the launch of a flagship Apple product, comes a whole deluge of accessories and add-ons, the most common being cases and covers.

If you think if you have a cool iPhone case, it's not as awesome as this: Jake Potts, a photographer, converted the glass back of an iPhone to a collodion process wet plate. Meaning, he effectively turned the glass of an iPhone into film and shot a picture onto it. Check it out. Read More >>
Apple sells some pricey hardware, everybody knows it. That's why iOS devices are at the top of muggers and robbers lists. So what better way to protect your phone than to integrate it into a vicious melee weapon. Read More >>

From the outside, the Playa Case could be a case for the non-sex-having masses. But when things start to get hot and heavy, the back panel slides away to reveal a hidden condom compartment.

I’ve seen some seriously useless or just plain fugly iPhone cases in my time, but none of them have been as nuts as this tidy little collection from the readers of Engineer vs Design.

If you're looking for a way to protect your iPhone and also stick a giant, MIA-sized middle finger into almost every possible realm of intellectual property law, these cases, "resembling" classic Apple computers, are for you. Cease and decisitalicious. Read More >>
Hankering for some POV action shots of this winter's snowboarding exploits, but can't swing a GoPro? No Problemo. Just strap your iPhone 4/S to your noggin with this. Read More >>
Military-Spec cases have been around for a while, but the Tank Case is ridiculous. Case Mate is so sure of the Tank's toughness that it hired third-party testers to subject a Tank-protected iPhone to a grueling, cringe-inducing battery of tests. To the Thunderdome! Read More >>
