the next big Iphone move will be to have a cut off of signal on your command so you can’t be tracked unless you want to be. Ill buy one.

Oh, great, now phones will come with a foot long tail on them. Ugh.

Strap a cat on one side of it and a piece of buttered toast on the other and it will never even touch the ground.

lol.

It's funny... any time I see friends with cracked phone screens it's always an iPhone. I don't know if its because iPhones just crack easier than others, or that iPhone users are just more clumsy than other people.

If the show “MacGyver” were still around, there’d be all kinds of potential gizmos with this iPhone concept. He could put the phone in a baggy full of hot pepper and throw it at the bads guys, upon impact, the air blasts would fill the room with hot pepper dust.

Why not just strap the phone to the belly of a cat?

So, just as Whiskers stays safest in a fall by landing on her paws, the iPhone can protect itself by landing on its edge.

My understanding is that tempered glass, will withstand impact on it's face, but will shatter if struck on it's edge. Do smartphones use something other than tempered glass? If not, then the reporters knows not of what he speaks, but then that would no be a surprise.

Might as well just rename it the iClumsy.

If this is supposed to be a selling point, I won’t be interested in buying it. I guess I’ll just have to learn how to replace the battery or stuff in my current phone.

Or downgrade to a cheap dumb phone.

“We will give Apple engineers the benefit of the doubt and assume they weren’t inspired to create new drop-protection technology for iPhones by throwing cats out of a fourth-story window.”

It was chinese workers. Chinese workers, not cats that took a dive out the window.
