You know hipsters, even if you don’t know any hipsters. Skinny jeans, ironic mustaches, plugged ears… if you’ve been to any rock and roll concert, you’ve seen one of these guys in his black-frame glasses and skinny, faded Motley Crue tee-shirt, doodling away happily on his iPhone while blissfully ignoring whatever band might be on stage (because enthusiasm isn’t cool). Hipsters love anything old-fashioned and everything ironic, so it goes without saying that this cassette-shaped iPhone case is probably the best present you could ever give a hipster.
Even if you know someone who isn’t a hipster, any kid of the 80’s would appreciate the novelty value of talking into a giant cassette tape. It’s about as close to having your own transformer as most people will ever get, so it’s pretty cool just based on that angle alone! I don’t think it has any value as a theft-deterrent (which is what the original poster claims to have designed this thing for) since if I saw a giant cassette laying around, I’d probably pick it up. Still, it’s a fun iPhone case, so give it points for that if nothing else.
