This is nuts! How about some soil from his grave site?

1,830$ .... whoa!

That makes me feel a wee bit sadness for humanity.

Sadness? Humanity is so ugly it is getting and will get what it deserves.

 

[tranceking26]

If it were just black with gold and no writing, material or signature it would look much better.

 

[paulypants]

This is weird and creepy AF. Yikes.

Buy a poster or book of Steve Jobs if you think he is someone important in your life but “that” is just disgusting

 

[Grey Area]

One thing I wonder about, given the titanium back it seems unlikely that MagSafe and wireless charging still work. Would this cause any oddities in iOS?

(To be fair, that sounds like the exact kinda weirdo s— that regularly happens in the Apple memorabilia world. All said with love; people [some with, uhh, deeper pockets than others] show their passion for the company in different ways…!)

There's a story about Steve Jobs, when an original Apple 1 computer came up for auction, and he was asked if he wanted to bid for it. His answer (not literally): "Why would I? It was hard enough to sell the first time round". He'd probably call anyone stupid who buys one of these phones.

Tasteless, terrible, and vain.

What better way to honor the year 2020?

 

[Analog Kid]

I hope they get sued for using his signature.

 

[Chompineer]

1,830$ .... whoa!

$1830 for some ugly ass old man shoes. Sweet.

I would not be able to afford that I can tell you that even if I could that’s incredibly tacky. The Gold and black would look better without any text though.

The "iPhone 12 Pro Jobs 4" collection is...

So you’re telling me I can get my hands on an iPhone 12 Pro Max Jobs 4? I’ll give one to whoever can say that 10 times fast.

Selling Steve Jobs' legacy high priced edition.

I want a $99 "Support Steve Jobs' legacy with your wallet" bumper sticker.

If you are a real fan, you can buy for example a limited edition print of Moof the Dogcow as designed by Susan Kare:

Steve Jobs must be turning in his grave.

Awful!

Could be used to produce clean energy!

Steve Jobs turtleneck...
This really deserves the "why tho?" meme...

I'm still not sure if that's better or worse than selling/buying bathwater...

 

[creediddy]

The camera bulge looks better. I don't like the camera housed against the backplate. It doesn't give the phone dimension.

 

[midwestfisherma]

A fool and his money are soon parted.

 

[nylonsteel]

whoa the gold black looks great
whish i had that kind of disposable cash

 

[crsh1976]

Good grief, we now have Steve Jobs relics - the guy has achieved commercial sainthood.

 

[Vance9991]

Legitimately almost spit out my drink when I got to the turtleneck part.

 

[spetznatz]

Eccchhh.... but I had hoped the 12s would have the front and back standing proud like the 4 & 4S and like these monstrosities have.

 

[johnmarki]

The estate of Steve Jobs probably has a thing or two to say about this product. As horrendous as this product is, I do like how the camera bump was addressed. I just wish the design team didn't trash Steve Jobs, and his style, in order to address it.

 

[SubduedTiger]

Oh wow, yes, it’s a perfect replica of his turtleneck. Before that, it was only worth like $4,000 max.

 

[Boosf]

Nice try but Catholics already beat you to this scam with pieces of the crucifix.
