Spigen set to sell cases for Apple iPhone 6 4 7 inches on Amazon



Case manufacturers have always played an important role in leaking looming smartphones design and other details pre an official release from the phone producers. And this time too we have one of the leading case maker, Spigen SGP, who had previously manifested the cases for both Samsung Galaxy S5 and HTC One 2014 (M8), here again showing-off some of the companys cases exclusively made for the upcoming purported Apple iPhone 6s 4.7-inches version.



Yesterday, Spigens Google+ account shared an interesting picture, tag-lining, "THERES SOMETHING IN THE AIR", also sharing a link to their new shipment awaiting ETA on Amazon. Fortunately, matching up our previous reports and the dummy units that surfaced, earlier for the Americans impending smartphones, now we see the handset mocked-up in official Press renders, falling in line with the previous leaks, featuring the thin and slim profile of Apples so-called next generation iPhone 6, which is yet to make its official debut from the Cupertino based manufacturer, in fall.

As aforementioned, Spigen posts the cases up for sale on the online retail store Amazon. The new cases from the SGP is dubbed as Spigen Slim Thin Fit Case for Apple iPhone 6. The newly unveiled products will be available in matte shades of Mint, Satin Silver and Smooth Black (seen above) color options, made out of premium polycarbonate with urethane based coating, that will prevent any kind of discoloration, finally completed in soft touch coating for a non-slip surface. The cases will be made available in stocks from 30th of September by Spigen and Amazon, where interested customers can now order the cases for 6.99 United States Dollars + $3.00 shipping charges.

Thanks to Spigen for once again confirming the design of Apples forthcoming device, as said in the past, the phone will have re-positioned sleep/wake button, placing it to the right side of the smartphone, unlike the current iPhones with power button on top edge. The change in placement of the specific button can come in handy when using the phone one-handed, as the new Apple iPhone 6s are speculated to arrive slightly bigger in size, one model being a 4.7-inched version and other one a 5.5-incher phablet. The SIM card tray slot placed below the power key. On the left, we see the firms traditional mute switch sitting above the redesigned volume up and down keys, which now attributes the same shape of an Apple manufactured iPod 5s volume rockers, sighting the long and narrow tabs instead of the circular ones seen from the present iPhone 5S smartphone. Lastly, from the back, the new case here makes room for a primary camera lens, secondary microphone and a dual-tone LED flash light.

Apple iPad Classic

The Apple iPod was the first innovating piece of Technology to really come out from Apple in the world of Music MP3 players. The first generation to what is now the seventh generation of iPods Apple is still showing us that no matter how old the Apple iPod can still make a difference. Apple iPod or Apple iPod classic as its now being called really took and gave the ability to be able to take your entire music library and put it on one device. From this one device you could create play lists, shuffle, search by artist and title. There was an endless amount of possibilities that you could do with your Apple iPod. I remember when they first came out and how much of an explosion one little piece of tech made in a lot of peoples lives.

It was amazing to so many people that you could take music put it on a device like the Apple iPod and you could jump, walk, skip, sky dive, sleeps, eat and this device would not skip or mess up your music. The best part was creating play lists I know of Joggers Runners people who exercised who thought this was amazing they could listen to their music that pumped them up or got them going while they where on the go. What you started to notice was more and more people who could now take there music hide it in their pockets or other places and they had their music on the go without having to carry around a big CD Player that really wasnt worth taking. Another advantage was the fact that you could have an endless amount of music instead of only being able to put what a CD R or CD RW could handle which was about 700 MB of MP3s.

So with the Apple iPod coming on to the music scene not only did it change the industry but effected the music industry on a whole. It was more than a game changer even though the Music i the Apple iPod was the final nail in the coffin and made the music world rethink its business model and really the Apple iPod helped the music world evolve honestly. Without the Apple iPod and Apples push on creating such an amazing product we would all be still sucked into CD businesss model of Band CD Tour. Now we have iTunes we can download whole CDs parts of that CD or simply singles. So even though it was the final nail in the Coffin The Apple iPod helped recreate and push the music industry forward.

The Apple iPod had many different models but they all stayed within the same amount of data they could hold. 4 GB 8 GB 20 GB 40 GB 60 GB 80 GB 100 GB. Apple iPod can play music, movies, hold photos and so much more its no wonder why it was the most successful product to last for so long and sell millions of units world wide. Predecessor the Apple iPhone and Apple iTouch the Apple iPod will always remain a key turning point in the tech world and the beginning of what was really to be a lot more great products coming out from Apple and really how much further they where going to push the envelope. If your like me I still have my 4th Generation Apple iPod and own the 7th Generation Apple iPod Classic. My 4th Generation Apple iPod has been thrown kicked slammed dropped (In Water, Pond, Fish Bowl), Ran over by an 18 wheeler and it still works and performs just as good as if it was right out of the box.
