Titan Protection, iPhone 4 Titanium Case
Case-Mate today announced plans to offer a limited edition Titanium case for the iPhone 4. Available in limited quantities starting Monday, June 27th, the new Titanium case combines detailed precision millwork with premium materials by physically reframing the iPhone 4 with a genuine titanium edge.
Known for its extreme and superior strength; Titanium was named for the powerful Titans of Greek mythology. This unique element has several interesting characteristics that make it technically superior to many other metals:
Titanium is as strong as steel, but 45% lighter,
Titanium is 30% more elastic than steel,
Titanium is resistant to salt water, perspiration and acids,
Titanium has a “low magnetic signature” reducing visibility to metal detectors,
Titanium does not become magnetized,
Titanium can only be worked with extremely hard tools,
Titanium has an extremely high melting point of 1800 degrees Celsius,
Titanium is believed to be the earth’s crust’s 9th most common element (about 0.6%)
Titanium never occurs in nature as a metal.
Machined from a single piece of titanium, this premium case provides immense strength and a sleek, handcrafted look. Titanium, most often used in aircraft engines and luxury automobiles, is corrosion- and scratch-resistant, adding durability with a polished effect. Using an included tool set that contains a mini screwdriver, screws and accompanying accessory buttons, the case fully encloses the iPhone 4 with a protective, yet stylish, edge. The result is a cutting-edge, superior design that seamlessly blends and minimally frames the iPhone 4.
The limited edition Titanium case will be available for purchase at www.case-mate.com for $300. You can also find cases for a wide variety of BlackBerry and other smartphones and tablet devices on the Case-Mate Web site.
