There’s a ridiculous new cell phone case on Kickstarter right now that’s PERFECT for anyone who’s ever been crushed by the pressure of one of the great debates of our time: iPhone or Android.Because it’s an iPhone case . . . that’s also an Android phone.
Seriously. The case has its own big screen and runs Android. You can put in a SIM card and give it its own phone number, so you can call and text from it. And it doesn’t need a separate plan, because it shares the iPhone’s data.
It also has a large battery built in that it shares with the iPhone, so your phone will last longer through the day. And you can charge that battery . . . and the iPhone itself . . . wirelessly. Basically, this case is like a very helpful parasite.
Now, because it’s on Kickstarter, there’s always a risk that the project will fall apart and you’ll lose your money. But you can get in on it for $95, which is reasonable . . . and isn’t THAT much more than a case that just has the extended battery like this one.
It’s scheduled to start shipping in August.
