Have you ever had the urge to flip and swing around your iPhone and make it look cool like you’re a martial arts expert using a nunchaku? Well, this little gadget called the “iPhone Trick Cover” let’s you do just that, and judging from the manufacturer’s demonstration video, it looks like it may be a lot of fun!
The cover was developed by NITTO Co.,Ltd., a Japanese company that manufactures metallic molds and press machines. The idea apparently started as an April Fool’s joke but people liked it so much that it was eventually developed into an actual product.
The video below shows you all the fun you can have with this unusual cover.
According to NITTO, the structure of the case is quite simple, but there are many variations to the flips and swings you can carry out with it. And even if you’re not going to be using the cover to perform fancy moves, it still functions as a regular resin case that protects your iPhone, and it comes with a movable aluminum cover that protects the screen as well. You can also adjust the cover to make your Phone stand upright.
If you want to be an iPhone nunchaku user, the cover will be available on-line in August for 4,800yen ($60). Just be careful you don’t hit anyone with it!
