Case of iPhone 5 Revealed

By Chris Wright


It's time to reveal "iPhone 5 case". Note that, as with other cases, they seem to supply a cutout in the top right-hand corner. What is this meant to be for? The flash? If that is the case why the cutout to the top left showing both camera and flash?

Now, to tool up and turn out even a prototype is a expensive exercise therefore one would imagine, no case manufacturer would go to that cost unless they knew something others don't.

To make cases needs exact specifications. To get the specs means having a spy somewhere in Foxconn or knowing someone who knows a spy. Or, if a competitor has got the specs, having a spy in that camp. The specific dimensions to permit a manufacturer to make a mould would be worth a large amount of money (some say up to US$200,000) "which is some enticement, isn't it? That is, naturally, if whoever has got hold of the info is prepared to chance imprisonment.

Therefore there should be something in such cases, mustn't there?

Absolutely not, in our perspective. Which case manufacturer in their right mind would divulge information which would be of use to a rival? If they have the dimensions then they will keep extremely quiet about it. They'll anonymously make their own mold and be poised to go into turn out some way ahead of the iPhone5 release date.It's a sting then? In our perspective, definitely yes.

Does someone have the real dimensions to allow them to make a mold? Well, according to our Englishman in HK, the answer's yes. We are hoping to have more information for you within the next day or so. But what we want to see is not another Photoshopped image of a hypothetical case but of the mold or housing, itself.
