Protect your phone with the ultra-slim Limitless line from Mous

Mous Limitless Launch - Phone Cases With Airo Shock Protection
There’s no limit to the amount of abuse we subject our smartphones to, so shouldn’t their protective cases should be limitless as well? Luckily, Mous has recently released a new line of iPhone cases that make use of Airo Shock, described as “an advanced smart-material engineered to offer the ultimate protection.” The Limitless collection is a group of iPhone cases designed to protect your phone, whether your it slips out of your pocket onto the concrete, or from a few stories above the ground.

Promising military-grade protection in materials like black marble, bamboo, leather, and kevlar, the Limitless line from Mous doesn’t sacrifice form for function. Despite its protective powers, Limitless cases are still ultra-slim, as their Airo Shock technology “utilizes a revolutionary air pocket structure to absorb impact from up to 45 feet without adding any bulk.” As Mous explains on its Indiegogo page, Airo Shock involves “injecting the material with micro crystals that turn into micro air pockets at high temperatures.” These little air pockets then serve as tiny springs that mitigate the impact of a fall. Apparently, the case remains effective even if you drop your iPhone face down.

Adding just 2mm to the thickness of your phone, the Limitless cases are also quite the fashion statement. Customers can choose from multiple backing material, and because the case fits both the iPhone 6 and newly released 7, your case ought to be useful for quite some time to come.

All Limitless cases also come embedded with a steel plate, allowing for magnetic mounting, which means you can stick your phone on your mirror, stand it up on your desk, or attach it to your fridge. Because we understand — phone separation anxiety is hard.

Currently, Mous is offering a Limitless case on Indiegogo for 50 percent off, which means you can own one of these super slim, super protective cases for $29. Delivery is expected by December 2016 for 6/6S/7 cases, and January 2017 for 6+/6S+/7+ cases.

The moment I realized mobile had a serious problem on its hands came not during a keynote address at a phone launch, but rather during a food run. This past summer, I headed over to my local sandwich shop (this op-ed was not brought to you by Subway) and I noticed this sign.

Subway sandwich pro. Just take a moment to let that sink in. Double meat on your sandwich makes it a "Pro" sandwich. After throwing up in my mouth a little bit, I had the realization that things were getting out of control, and the blame rests solely on my department -- phones.

The Arc Pulse is a barely there case for your iPhone 13
The Arc Pulse case is a minimal case designed to protect your iPhone 13 Pro.

When you think about it, the best Apple iPhone 13 cases have a number of different jobs. A case needs to look good, keep your iPhone 13 looking good, and keep it protected against the usual drops and spills. For most, that means a rubber or plastic (or both) case that surrounds your phone in a protective layer and keeps it safe. But is that the only design? Arc doesn't think so.

I've been using the Arc Pulse Case on my iPhone 13 Pro for three weeks, and there's a lot to talk about. One of the biggest of those is the fact that there's not a lot to talk about. Confused? That's why we wanted to bring it to your attention.
Less is more
The guiding principle behind the Arc case is to provide you with 90% of the protection with roughly 10% of the case. The Arc comes in two metal pieces with a 100% recyclable, rubberized/grippy SEBS layer inside. The type of metal depends on which you buy: Titanium or aluminum.

Totallee’s $39 lightweight MagSafe case keeps a tight grip on your iPhone
Totallee MagSafe iPhone case from the side.

Case maker Totallee has introduced a MagSafe version of its super-thin iPhone case, and I’ve been giving it a try over the last few days. I recently sung the praises of Incipio’s MagSafe-equipped Grip case for the iPhone 13 Pro and wanted to see how Totallee’s case compared, especially as I’ve liked the brand’s cases in the past. But how would the thin case affect the MagSafe magnet's grip?

The case is made from flexible TPU with a transparent rear panel matched to a black outer bumper for increased protection. It adds very little additional bulk or thickness to the iPhone and is more pocket-friendly than the Incipio Grip, but it definitely won’t provide as much protection in the event of a serious fall.
