Why you need a Car Mount for your iPhone

Mon, 28 Feb 2011 12:13:15 +0000

I was driving my new Scirocco on a nice sunny Saturday afternoon, with the window opened.... then I felt the sudden urge to overtake this Merc that was in front of me.... it was a sharp right turn. The iPhone, placed on just a matt below the windshield, slipped towards the left passenger window and jumped right out! It crash landed on a busy highway. By the time I got back to collect (what was left of) it, the what used to be high glossy glass that was engineered to near perfection by Apple, (together with my heart) had shattered like it had been hit by bullets. I wasn't sure how many cars had run over it. After a while I realised it was only the front display that was in ruins as I heard the familiar notification sounds of incoming SMS and email..... this only shattered my heart even more as there was no way I could read or reply to those messages.....

I was so frustrated I did not equip my car with a car mount o grip my iPhone firmly. At GadgetGear we certainly do not wish to see your iPhone (or any mobile device) like this. We will be sourcing some quality car mounts from some big brands so stay tuned! In fact, we will be broadening our range of iPhone accessories a lot more in coming months.

P.S. This is now sitting as a "collector's item" in my display cabinet in the living room ^_^

Back of iPhone 4 Made of Glass - Good or Bad?

Fri, 25 Jun 2010 12:58:01 +0000

Apple iPhone 4 - a beautiful piece of hardware with state of the art engineering - thinner than the iPhone 3G, faster processor, and an upgraded display. Another major difference in its architecture is the beautiful glass finishing on the back of the iPhone 4. Apple have made claims that the its new iPhone 4 screen is “chemically strengthened to be 20 times stiffer and 30 times harder than plastic” and it’s “ultradurable and more scratch resistant than ever.”

A post from Gizmodo staff suggests otherwise. The back glass of his iPhone 4 shattered after it slipped out of his fingers:

How unfortunate! And it was only after a few hours of use. (we are terribly sorry to hear of your story, Ryan).

So although you might be reluctant to cover that beautiful all-glass design on your iPhone 4, perhaps it is best that you check out some of the cases and covers that GadgetGear has available to protect your latest investment.

What's on your mind? Does this make you cling on dearly to your existing iPhone 3G, and put off your purchase of the new iPhone 4? Leave us a comment and let us know what you think…
