Hardcore Tablet Stands Made From Slices Of Train Rails

/

Who would have though that heavy chunks of real train rails would make one of the most amazing pieces of tablet stands imaginable. Griffin has collaborated with Rail Yard Studios to create one-of-a-kind, hand-made gritty tablet stands, each costing $130 and artistically fashioned out of reclaimed decommissioned rail stock and railroad spikes forged out of steel. The Rail Artifact Stand is made up from two railroad spikes welded to a flat tie plate once used to hold down parts of the rail creating an angled back support for virtually any tablet. The less grungy-looking Rail Slice Stand is a solid slice of a 12-inch wide railroad rail weighing a hefty 11 pounds, and features a CNC-milled cavity for your tablet's charging cable connector. Both stands were made to hold full-sized and small tablets in either portrait or landscape orientations.

Twelve South Unveils HiRise Deluxe Docking Stand For iPhone & iPad

twevlesouth-hirise-deluxe-iphone-6-6plus-ipad-air-2-stand-dock.jpg

Arguably the best docking stand for the iPhone and iPad just got better and more versatile than ever before. The HiRise Deluxe is Twelve South's new and improved all-metal docking stand redesigned with a few fan-requested improvements over the original HiRise including a new gold color and polished chamfered edges. Starting with a more convenient and simplified no-tool adjustment enabling users to slide the rear support backwards or forwards in order to accommodate different types of protective cases using a twist knob at the back instead of having to tighten a few screws on the bottom of the original model.

In addition, the HiRise Deluxe features two included color matched charge and sync cables: an MFi-certified Lightning connector cable, and for the very first time a micro-USB connector cable that Twelve South says will let users dock and charge their devices that are encased inside battery cases like Mophie's Juice Pack Air. You'll obviously be able to now use your Android devices with the HiRise Deluxe thanks to the included micro-USB connector, which is designed to fit the HiRise's height-adjustable connector adapters in order to fit into the numerous thicknesses of protective cases.

Twelve South's HiRise Deluxe is fully compatible with the iPhone 6, 6 Plus, iPhone 5s, iPad Air 2, iPad Air, iPad mini 3, iPad mini, iPod touch, and unofficially most other Android and Windows Phone devices. It's available right now in silver, black and gold for $60.

Lunatik AQUATIK: The Best Looking Waterproof iPhone 6 Case

/

This is Lunatik's new AQUATIK case. Arguably the best looking and sleekest waterproof case for the iPhone 6. It's the first waterproof case we've seen that actually doesn't look like one, but rather more like an ordinary stylish protective case thanks to its low-profile and slim design. Don't let the sleek design fool you though because the AQUATIK is built using some tough engineering that meets or exceeds IP68 technical specs and military 810G drop test standards. Billed as Lunatik's slimmest ultra-protective case, the AQUATIK features refined rounded edges, articulating vibrate/mute switch and optimized button tactility, and an easy snap-in two-piece installation design similar to that of a LifeProof case.

SwitchEasy AirMask For iPhone 6 & 6 Plus Offers Inclusive Paper-Thin Protection

SwitchEasy is back in the game of making unique cases for the iPhone. This time the company unveiled a new type of case that it thinks will revolutionize the case industry. Only it won't. The AirMask isn't the first of its kind, but it is the first to market when it comes to encasing Apple's iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. Much like the Slim case created years ago for the iPhone 5 by iSkin, SwitchEasy's AirMask is an ultra-thin shell case that fully encompasses the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 plus, providing a full 360-degree worth of protection against scratches and marring. With a form factor that is only 0.35mm thick and weighing just 10 grams, the AirMask is made up from two thin hard pieces of polycarbonate polymer layers, which instead of snapping together to form a seamless one-piece casing around the iPhone – use an adhesive to install over an iPhone 6 or 6 Plus covering both the front and back with a ultra-thin layer of protection that is also said to provide users with an anti-slip grip thanks to the micro-textured, metallic-like finish.

Logitech Keys-To-Go Is A Surface Touch Cover-Like Keyboard For iPad

/

You can now own a Microsoft Surface Touch Cover-like wireless keyboard for your iPad with Logitech's new ultra-flat Keys-To-Go keyboard. This is Logitech's first standalone Bluetooth keyboard designed for portable use thanks to its compact form factor and durable design. And because it's Bluetooth enabled and features iOS shortcut keys, Logitech says that you can use it with any iPad including Apple's latest iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3, as well as with a Mac in a desktop setting. Although its very similar to Microsoft's Surface tablet Touch Cover keyboard, Logitech's Keys-To-Go will not magnetically attach to an iPad or provide versatile typing angles as it is meant to be used like a traditional wireless keyboard, laying completely flat on a surface. With a built-in rechargeable battery, the Keys-To-Go can last up to three full months on a single charge.

Mophie's Desktop Dock Charges Your iPhone 6 Inside Apple's Own Case

/

Mophie has introduced a more premium version of its frictionless Juice Pack Dock that is made to work with the iPhone 6, 5s, 5c and iPhone 5. The new Desktop Dock is a svelte and solidly built Lightning dock made out of aluminum that features a built-in pivoting Lightning connector that will let you dock your iPhone with or without a protective case installed on it. Mophie says that while you can use most cases with your iPhone 5s/5c/5 with the Desktop Dock, the iPhone 6 in particular will only be able to be docked naked or when using one of Apple's slim Silicone Case and Leather Case cases only. It's also worth noting that unlike the Juice Pack Dock, the Desktop Dock isn't compatible with Mophie's own battery cases as they don't use Apple's Lightning connector. Mophie has yet to come out with one of its highly anticipated battery cases for the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus.

Olloclip has unveiled its 4-in-1 clip-on lens system today that is compatible with both the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. The $80 Olloclip 4-in-1 Photo Lens features the same four different lens types as before to enhance your iPhoneography including fisheye, wide-angle, 10x and 15x macro lenses that can be interchanged in a matter of seconds. The new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus version of the 4-in-1 Olloclip retains the same great caseless clip-on mounting functionality without the need of any extra parts, but it has also been redesigned to work with the iPhone's back-facing iSight camera as well as the front-facing FaceTime camera thanks to its lightweight and compact dual-sided lens adapter design.

Olloclip says that it has updated the wide-angle and fisheye lenses for the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus to offer a greater field of view while also optimizing them for "selfie" photography in that you'll be able to take epic group selfies with more background squeezed into your shots when you're taking personal selfies.

The 4-in-1 Olloclip Photo Lens system can also be word when not used on your iPhone using one of the three multi-colored wearable pendants included with the Olloclip that let you clip it onto things like clothing and key rings. While it won't be available until late November, you'll be able to pre-order the 4-in-1 Olloclip Photo Lens for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus today for $80 in multiple color options including color-matching Space Gray, gold, white, silver and in red. Like before, it's expected to be available to purchase at all Apple and Best Buy retail stores.
