Turn Your Phone or Tablet Into a Wireless Remote for Your DSLR Camera

The CASE Remote



  The device was created by a Chinese startup called Cheering Tech, which managed to raise $38,934 on Indiegogo for a first version of the device (simply called CASE) earlier this year. With the success of that campaign, they decided to take preorders for a second version of the device (now called the CASE Remote), and raised another $39,989 through Indiegogo.
  CASE Remote is compatible with Android and iOS, and is connected to your DSLR via its USB port. Here’s a chart showing current camera compatibility (asterisks means those camera can’t beam live view):

control  The companion app then allows you to view, control and adjust things such as live view, image transfer, playback, focus, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, white balance and more. There are also fancier features such as HDR, time-lapse, and focus stacking.

The Whistl Sexual Assault Alarm Phone Case

The Whistl Phone Case

Personal Security System

  A Kickstarter campaign has recently been launched for a new cell phone case called Whistl. The case works in tandem with a smartphone app and is designed to protect users from potential security threats and sexual assaults. The design is simple: if a user feels like they are in danger, they can click two buttons on the case to alert their friends and local authorities. The case also emits a loud noise and displays a flashing L.E.D. light.

  The cases will be available for a July 2015 launch for the iPhone (5C, 5S and 6 models) and Android support may follow in the future. As of press deadline, Whistl had earned $36,775 of their $70,000 funding goal.

Jayon Wang is CEO of Lifeshel, the company behind the case.

  When asked about the implications of perpetuating rape culture through a product that some critics may argue places the onus on women to prevent sexual assault, Wang noted that he sees this product more as an opportunity.

  “It’s not just women who are responsible for protecting themselves when they go out. That’s certainly not what we intend to convey with our product,” said Wang. “What we do want to make sure that if someone is going out and they actively want something to protect them, we need to make sure the market is able to provide them with those solutions. It’s not just a women’s issue, it’s everyone’s issue.”

  Wang noted that although Lifeshel has received outside funding from other investors in Pittsburgh, Kickstarter is a valuable tool to raise awareness for the product. The Kickstarter campaign also ensures that the phone case will be in wide use among early adopters by the time it launches next year.

  A successful trial run for the product has already been conducted at the Wang’s alma matter, Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. Plans are also in the works to try out the phone cases at other universities. Wang sees the phone case as an opportunity to further the discussion surrounding sexual assault and to hopefully make college campuses and cities safer places.

Look for the Whistl case in stores in the United States in July 2015 with international expansion to follow.

The AMP Phone Case

The AMP Phone Case


  With all of the new phones on the market and their respective cases, it may be tough to find your perfect fit. Some save your phone from drops while others give you more battery but, they usually leave you wanting more features. Amp is here to fill the void, and your ears, with its incredible speaker system phone case.

  Amp creates custom made audio in a simple snap on phone case. Its innovation begins with the hardware and exceeds with a smart app that learns your preferences and hearing needs. The creators, SoundFocus, wanted to provide an all in one system; Amp delivers high quality audio to enhance your music, conference calls, or even GPS while protecting your phone.

  Users can put the case on their phone and open the app to calibrate their settings. The app has a questionnaire (much like the hearing tests in school) that will give results of your custom audio settings in about a minute. The companion app also picks up the habits of the user for their taste, hearing abilities, and environment.

  The app can help determine what the user would like to hear based on the songs that they’re skipping, repeating, or rating. The initial questionnaire tests the hearing of the user in both ears individually to create a hearing pattern profile for low and high notes.

  Also, the system has Dynamic Noise Reduction; it can detect noise in the user’s environment and adjust the frequency of the audio spectrum accordingly so your conference calls are clear and crisp.

Extended Battery Phone Case by ZeroLemon

ZeroLemon Extended Battery 
Rugged Case for LG G3

zerolemon for lg g3 battery case

  Like any smartphone today, the LG G3 can be a battery guzzler. Manufacturers may promise long battery life but it will always depend on how a person uses a mobile device. As a solution, it’s either you charge the handset twice or thrice a day (sadly) or you bring a power bank with you. Others have extra battery but only a few are really efficient.

  The recently made available LG G3 is getting a power companion in the form of a ZeroLemon Case. It’s an extended battery boasting of 9000mAh, disguised as a rugged black Zero Shock Hybrid Protection Phone Case. We’ve seen similar battery-ala-phone-case already but this looks really tough and good enough to handle drops and rough use by careless hands.

  Features of the ZeroLemon for LG G3 include a Direct Battery discharge design for power efficient to eliminate possible battery waste. The case is a TPU/PC Rugged Case made with Double Corner Technology. It also comes with a Japan PET Screen Protector and a belt clip. To be sure no one can copy this extra battery case, LG has patented the design in the US.

  This isn't the first time ZeroLemon is offering a protective case for popular smartphones. Late last year, a case for the Galaxy Note 3 was introduced. It clocked in with a 10,000 mAh battery, too impressive because the Note 3 was only 3,200 mAh. It's expected the version for LG G3 will be just as great.

  The ZeroLemon LG G3 9000mAh Extended Battery + Rugged Black Zero Shock Hybrid Protection Case is compatible with all LG G3 smartphone models. Item already available on Amazon for $59.99.

This review is brought to you by Bustle.  It’s time to step up your selfie game. A new iPhone case — dubbed, of course, the Selfie Brush — lets Instagram and Snapchat fanatics look their best at any moment. So, how exactly does it work? The phone case doubles as brush and promises the perfect selfie. Put your phone in the case, touch up your hair, and snap away. Now the only hard part of looking good on Instagram will be making the tough decision between Valencia and Lo-Fi.

I know, I know — selfies can be a tad bit obnoxious. But hey, they’re not going anywhere anytime soon. Might as well embrace them, right? The Selfie Brush promises “professional results” (Are there professional selfie photographers?) while capturing you at the best angle possible. Hey, it’s even easy to find in your purse and comes with a headphones jack and storage space. Gotta love technology. 

Now that the selfie brush has made its way into the world, the makers should be reaching out for celebrities endorsements. STAT. After all, quite a few of our favorite stars are known for posting quite a few selfies on their Instagram accounts. If you have millions of followers, you might as well look good.

  The tech industry’s worst-kept secret is now public knowledge, and the iPhone 6 is finally here. With a curvy new design and a larger 4.7-inch screen housing a blazing fast A8 processor and iOS 8, the new iPhone is a mouthwatering device. You’re going to want to keep all that goodness safe for as long as possible, while retaining your new phone’s sleek, sexy 0.27-inch profile. Thankfully, the world’s bumper makers are ready to offer your phone some cover-up. Here are the best cases to protect your iPhone 6 while making the smartphone more useful.

1. PureGear Hip Case+ ($35)

1410248547 506x400  Want an iPhone bumper that does it all? PureGear’s Hip Case+ is a 4-in-1 system that packs a kickstand, two card slots, 180-degree rotating belt clip and a rubberized grip in one protective body. With the Hip Case+, you can take your credit card and ID with you, and stow your phone on a belt, purse handle or backpack strap for easier access. Available in black or gray.





buqu tech powerarmour features 487x4002. BuQu PowerArmor ($80) 

  Even though Apple’s bumped up the size of the battery on the iPhone 6, chances are you’re still going to need an external charger for a long day out or a camping trip. BuQu Tech’s PowerArmor squeezes a 2,500-mAh battery into a sleek, lightweight body that protects your phone from bumps and falls. A row of LED indicator lights on the back shows you how much extra power is available, while a slide-lock connector makes it easier to put on or remove the case. It also includes a microUSB cable for charging, and will be available in November 2014.


3. Urban Armor Gear Folio ($40) 

1410248640  If you want real assurance that your new iPhone will be protected from your clumsy butter fingers, Urban Armor Gear’s iPhone 6 Folio is a good option. Its armor shell is lightweight and meets military drop test standards, while its FrogSkin (not actually the skin of frogs, but a patented material) exterior is water-resistant so your phone will be safe from splashes. The facing cover holds slots for up to three credit cards, and Urban Armor Gear promises unfettered audio and glare-free flash. Available in red and black.

Best of all, the Q Card Case comes in three alluring colors – black, gold and an emerald-like green.


5. Verus Damda Slide ($30)

1410242675  I couldn’t keep my eyes and hands off the Verus Damda Slide when I saw it at the Super Mobility Show in Las Vegas. The shiny metallic paint on the plastic case adds a premium touch to the case, but did not add much bulk to the iPhone 6 mock at all. While the sliding mechanism on the units I saw were somewhat stiff, Verus told me it will get smoother over time. You can keep up to two cards in this cover, which has dual-layer shock absorption technology to protect your phone from falls. Available in dark silver, satin silver, dark red, champagne gold and yellow.


6. X-Doria Scene Plus ($30)

The Selfie Brush Phone Case

The Selfie Brush 

Phone Case

Selfie Brush, selfies

As if there weren't enough unique selfie gadgets out there as wellas unique phone case designs, the Selfie Brush now combines both genres to offer an everyday tool as well as a great tool for the ideal selfie photo.

  The review from Lucky reveals:  The Selfie Brush, which is both a phone case and a hairbrush, has become the must-have tool of the selfie-obsessed (along with the first #NoFilter lipstick.)

  Staff at Lucky, a fashion and beauty site, tried out an advanced version of the brush and defended its need to exist.

"If you've ever taken a selfie, you know that a hair-related issue usually comes up," one editor wrote. "Whether you're in a group shot or flying solo, flyways are the enemy. Also, holding the paddle gives you a wider range of angles for your photos."

Designed to fit an iPhone 5 and 5S, the selfie brush comes in black, pink and purple, and is due to be released in the US in September 2014.  The Selfie Brush company has also released notes on 'how to take the perfect selfie' on its website. Notebooks at the ready!

Their top tips include:

1. Show off a soft and playful smile. Ditch the duck face and highlight your personality through a flattering expression.

2. Capture your best side. Experiment in the brush's mirror to find the most flattering view of you.

3. Find the right filter. Adjust tone, light, glow and contrast to hide blemishes and show your best features.

iPhone Battery Cases

iPhone Battery Cases


  This great review is brought to you by Susie Ochs of Techhive.com and reviews three top selling battery cases for the iPhone.  Many of these cases are designed for other makes and models and offer the security you need to give your mobile devices an extended using experience.
  You know the feeling—that sinking feeling when you notice your phone is at 7 percent charged, and there’s just no way you’re going to make it to a power outlet for a while. You can turn the brightness down to barely visible, you can turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, heck you can even put that sucker in airplane mode, but it’s not going to save you. You’re stuck choosing between using your phone now, or trying to save that 7 percent to play some music on your bus ride home…which isn’t for hours.
You’re screwed.
I’m an old fart who sits at the same desk all day, surrounded by free USB ports and power strips studded with AC adapters, and my car is one big charging station too. But college students spend long days wandering around sprawling campuses where they might not stay put in one spot for more than a couple hours at a time. If anyone needs a good battery case, it’s a student. And while it’s a drag to pay triple-digit prices for an iPhone accessory, I found three battery cases for iPhone 5 and 5s that go beyond just juicing up your phone.

Otterbox Resurgence, for the school of hard knocks

I’ve shattered three iPhones. My husband has broken zero—his iPhones stay pristine, actually, because he keeps them safely ensconsed in the nigh-indestructibleOtterbox Defender. And every time I break another phone, my friends ask me, “Don’t you use an Otterbox?” while my husband is smart enough to keep quiet.

otterbox resurgence iphone5sPHOTO: MICHAEL HOMNICK
You have to pry the front piece off the flat back part to get your phone out, and it's not a fun thing to do. 

Be smart like him, not dumb like me. The Otterbox Resurgence isn’t cheap—it costs $100, but it beats paying to fix a shattered screen. Your screen stays uncovered, unlike the Defender, but the Resurgence curves around the front edge just enough to protect against most drops where the iPhone lands face-down—unless, say, your screen directly strikes the corner of a table on its journey to the ground. (Otterbox offers an “Alpha Glass” screen protector add-on for $30.)
Besides the Otterboxy protection, the Resurgence has two things going for it: a beefy 2000mAh battery, and some style. It comes in four colors—I like Teal Shimmer, and even the gray (sorry, Glacier) is nicer-looking compared to basic black. In our lab test, the battery was enough to bring a completely dead iPhone 5s back to 74 percent charged in 1 hour and 13 minutes. If you’re just topping off your iPhone, the Resurgence knows to stop charging when the phone hits 100 percent, which is very handy.

The Resurgence in Glacier gray.

Its biggest drawback is that it’s really hard to take off. Every time I had to remove the case, I felt like I was going to break my phone in half. The Resurgence comprises two pieces that snap together, and having to pry the face piece off the sturdy battery that makes up the back is a nerve-wracking experience. (You can charge and sync your iPhone with the Resurgence case still on, but I need to access my phone’s Lightning port pretty frequently, to connect to my car stereo.) I also didn’t like the way the covered sleep and volume buttons felt, kind of mushy, without the satisfying metal clicks that you get from a naked iPhone.

Mophie Space Pack, like a backpack for your phone

Mophie’s Juice Pack line is pretty much the Kleenex of iPhone battery cases—you just say “Mophie” instead of “battery case” and everyone knows what you’re talking about. The special brilliance of the Space Pack is that it combines a Juice Pack with extra storage, like a built-in thumb drive. You’ll pay a premium, of course: the 16GB case is $150, 32GB is $180, and 64GB is $250. The 16GB version should be enough for most students, storage-wise, but doubling that for $30 isn’t a bad deal.

mophie space pack iphone5sPHOTO: MICHAEL HOMNICK
The Space Pack's extra memory is a convenient way to keep your important files with you at all times. 

To add files to your Space Pack, you connect it to your computer with a micro-USB cable, and then just drag files onto it like you would a flash drive. There’s no restriction on file type, but each file has to be 4GB or smaller. Then on the phone, a companion app called Space lets you access those files, and it automatically sorts them into folders for you based on file type: Photos, Videos, Music, Documents, and Other Files. A built-in player lets you listen to music and watch videos right in the Space app. You can view documents like PDFs and Word files in the Space app too, or use the Open With command to send them to a different app for editing.

mophie space pack appMOPHIE
The beautiful, easy-to-use Space app lets you access the case's stored files. 

This is a great way for college students to keep a backup of important coursework, or just extra movies and music that wouldn’t normally fit on your phone. The drag-and-drop syncing is so convenient, and you don’t have to worry about crowding your phone’s built-in storage or relying on iCloud or Dropbox to access your files. A thumb drive is a cheaper way to port files around, but with this, you can actually read those files when you're away from your computer.

mophie space pack iphone5s backPHOTO: MICHAEL HOMNICK
The Space Pack is a two-piece slider case, so it's easy to remove, and the lights show how much charge is left. 

The Space Pack is easy to put on and take off too—the bottom part pops right off, exposing the Lightning port in case you need to plug something else in. The covered buttons are just as mushy as on the Otterbox, but the Space Pack is slightly slimmer. A switch on the back lets you control when the Space Pack recharges your phone, and four little LEDs make it easy to see how much charge you have left—info that’s also in the Space app.
In our tests, the 1700mAh Space Pack brought a dead iPhone 5s up to 70 percent in 1 hour, 18 minutes before croaking. The case itself recharged the fastest of the three reviewed here, going from dead to fully charged in 2 hours, 7 minutes, which is 30 minutes faster than the Resurgence.

Duracell PowerCase and PowerMat, your phone’s home base

I could probably misplace something in a phone booth. I lose stuff in my cubicle all the time, and it’s way smaller than a dorm room. So the thing I like most about using the PowerCase is having one spot to put it down every single time—the PowerMat wireless charging station. Another bonus is that the Lightning cable I used to charge my phone with is now just…an extra cable. You can never have enough extra Lightning cables.

duracell powercase powermat iphone5sPHOTO: MICHAEL HOMNICK
Look, Ma, no cables! OK, the one cable from the wall to the PowerMat. 

This particular PowerCase and PowerMat combo is $120 at the Apple Store, only a small premium over the Otterbox. The case is easy to put on and off, and I love the big cutouts at the bottom—depending on the size of your favorite headphones’ connector, you might not even need to use an extension cable, which you definitely do with the other two cases. Cutouts for the iPhone’s sleep, volume, and mute controls avoid the mushy-button problem of the other two cases, too. A button on the back of the PowerCase controls charging and lights up LEDs to show you how much is left.
The square PowerMat stays plugged in to the wall, and then you can just drop the PowerCase on top. The P on the back of the case lines up with a P on the mat, but it can go in any orientation. It’s easy to get right every time, because hidden magnets help snap it into place as soon as you get anywhere close. You can choose to stick the PowerMat onto something with two adhesive strips, which helps it not lift up when you pick up your phone (since they’re stuck together with those magnets, after all). But even if you don’t use the adhesive, it’s still possible to pluck the iPhone off the charging pad one-handed, after just a little practice.

duracell powercase powermat iphone5s apartPHOTO: MICHAEL HOMNICK
The PowerCase is so nice to use that you might not mind how long wireless charging can take. 

Using the PowerMat is convenient and charmingly futuristic—OK, OK, until you compare it with Android and Windows phones that have wireless charging built in. In our tests, the 2000mAh battery performed the best of these three, charging a dead iPhone 5s to 84 percent in 1 hour, 24 minutes. But using the PowerMat to fully charge the dead PowerCase also took four hours, compared to around two hours to charge the Space Pack (using a wall charger), and two and a half for the Otterbox. The PowerCase does have a micro-USB port under a little flap that you can use for wired charging and syncing away from the PowerMat.

Bottom line

These cases all performed well, so it comes down to choosing the feature to best suit your needs: If you just want a solid case with a battery and drop protection (not to mention a little color), the Otterbox is a good buy. I love how the well-made Space Pack fits the phone and carries tons of extra files. And the convenient PowerMat and the best battery performance are huge points for the PowerCase. Any of them has enough power to make sure your iPhone 5 or 5s can keep up with you.

The Wallet Phone Case

The Wallet Phone Case

  The wallet phone case is becoming an increasingly popular choice among phone enthusiasts as our phones are carrying more and more importance due to their increasing functionality.  Years ago a rubber case was all you needed due to the fact that phones were used as simply, calling devices.  However, today they are used as references to bank accounts, portfolios, cameras, our favorite apps, and soon to be used as payment devices.  

  All of this functionality is very convenient for the human lifestyle but we still are required to posses cash, ID, and the occasional other pieces of information whether they pertain to our job or daily needs.  The Wallet Phone Case provides this versatility while also providing the protection that our expensive handheld computers so badly need.  At Phonecasestation we provide numerous designs and strive to make the perfect compromise of great quality matched with a great price.  Feel free to check out our selection of models below.

Simply lift the key off the back of the case. This is achieved by a special silicon boot that the key resides in and with the design of the case the friction keeps the key in place when not detached.

KEY FOB

Simple to use, the key now replaces the key you currently use to lock, unlock and start your car and it works with or without being attached to the case. If you have a smart key, you no longer need the key fob. If you have an ignition key, you only need the physical metal key to drive the car.

SLEEK, LIGHT, AND PROTECTIVE

Not only is Intellacase stylish and feels good in your hand, but it also protects your phone at the same time. Intellacase will be made out of a highly durable polycarbonate material that is long lasting and protective.

Wirelessly Control Your DSLR Camera From A Phone

Wirelessly Control 

Your DSLR Camera From A Phone


Here’s a neat idea aiming to bridge the gap between older generation technology and today’s ubiquitous touchscreen smartphones. Case Remote is a wireless remote controller for DSLR cameras which links to an Android or iOS smartphone, allowing the camera kit to be controlled via a mobile app.

Why would you want to do that? It’s a hands free way of controlling the camera after you’ve positioned it where you want it to take a shot, for one thing. It’s also arguably a nicer way for beginners to play around with fine-grained DSLR settings, instead of having to get their head around multiple on-camera physical controls and gnomic camera menus. Point is, people are getting more comfortable with smartphone touchscreen controls than physical dials and buttons.

The app also offers a shortcut to sharing your best quality shots online, since you can download a photo straight from the camera onto your mobile device and share it from there in the usual way, to your social outlet of choice.

Case RemoteThe Case Remote companion app offers a live view of what the camera is seeing on the mobile screen; the ability to set and tweak controls such as ISO and shutter speed; an option to wirelessly download photos to your mobile device; the ability to zoom in to the full high res shot, to check how it came out; and a set of more advanced features including time lapse, HDR and focus stacking.

The device is compatible with a range of camera makes and models — offering a compatibility advantage over proprietary apps made by individual kit makers. Supported models include a long list of Canon and Nikon cameras from the EOS Series, PowerShot, D Series and 1 Series. However its makers say it’s not stable with most Sony and Panasonic kit.

It’s worth flagging that Case Remote’s makers are currently running their second Indiegogo campaign for an upgraded version of the device, as a follow up to a campaign they ran earlier in the year for a less full featured version which still hasn’t shipped to backers. They are now intending to ship the beefier Case Remote to all earlier backers, plus any new ones they acquire, this September.

The price-tag on the Case Remote is $79 to early Indiegogo backers ($99 or $129 thereafter), which includes accessories such as a hot shoe adaptor and a strap wire. That makes it considerably cheaper than rival wireless camera controllers — which can cost in the $200 price range. It’s also claiming to be smaller and lighter than other wireless controllers, sized at 2 x 2inches and weighing in at around 50 grams.

The Indiegogo campaign for Case Remote is a flexible funding campaign, meaning there’s no target they need to hit to ship. Their prior crowdfunder pulled in nearly $39,000, well over the original $15,000 target. At the time of writing, their second bite at the cherry with a more polished but later shipping finished product has pulled in over $12,000, still with 24 days left of the campaign to run. So all they need to do now is actually deliver the goods on time this time.
