This is an iPhone case with a difference. Yes, it is extraordinarily chunky and impractical and there has been no apparent thought with regards ergonomics. Well that is because it has been designed to withstand a shot from a .50 calibre machine gun. Yes, it is bulletproof. 

We’d love to hear from anyone who has actually had their iPhone smashed to pieces by a machine gun bullet. Maybe this is quite common in Japan for, say, a member of Yakuza or someone from one of these cities in Mexico. On second thoughts, please don’t get in touch. 

It’s quite pricey at $650  - but hey, your life is probably worth that (only probably? Ed.) Plus an empty bullet is included with each purchase. That’s quite dark to be honest. 

We’d recommend our Lifeproof case. It’s for people who, you know, live quite nice normal lives. It protects you from boring, petty, every-day hazards. It would definitely get totally destroyed if you shot the hell out of it so please, can everyone put their guns away now?
