Awesome Iphone

(PG-13: Language) Apple just announced its latest $1000 wonderphone, and already the parodies are starting to roll in. We particularly enjoyed JacksFilms take on some of the phone’s more controversial and questionable design elements and features.

Tthe Hitcase Pro 2.0 is waterproof and drop-proof, and also allows for mounting of super-wide, wide, and macro lenses. The case itself is compatible with GoPro mounts for capturing action footage. Coming for iPhone 6 and 7, but we’re hoping for a 7 Plus version. (Thanks Matt!)

(PG-13: Language) Internet Historian looks at how thousands of idiots have been exposed over the years thanks to the iPhone, pranksters, and the Internet. The retrospective itself sounds too sad to be true, but they actually happened.

(PG-13: Language) CollegeHumor’s requisite bashing of the headphone jack-less iPhone 7 features Tim Cook having a nervous breakdown, and Jony Ive revealing himself to be what we suspected he was all along: a cold-blooded AI.

Musician Jack Fliegler (aka “ToxicxEternity“) arranged this heavy metal tribute that seriously expands on one of today’s most familiar sounds: a stock iPhone ringtone. Our next request: the classic Nokia ringtone. Oh wait.

Nicolas Vuignier has open sourced his airplane-like DIY bullet-time rig. The Centriphone works with the iPhone 6 and 6S, while the Centripro works with the GoPro 3, 3+ and 4. Nicolas is also selling the rig to those who don’t have access to a 3D printer.

Skier Nicolas Vuignier performed a cool visual experiment that resulted in an awe-inspiring 360º surround view of himself as he swung his iPhone around using a tether. Combined with slow-motion, he created a sort of Matrix bullet-time effect on the slopes. (Thanks Adam!)
