Weighted Cases?

[Mark Stone]

This might be an idea. It might not be either - - - 😂 ---

What if a protective iPhone case was created with one of the corners, sides or ends weighted a bit. Whichever corner that was weighted would have special shock-absorbing protection built in, like a gonzo bumper case would have. Whenever a drop occurs, unless I misunderstand the physics, the weighted corner would strike the floor first - instead of the back, screen, etc.

I dunno. With the high quality of protective cases these days (Spigen, Otterbox, LifeProof etc) maybe it would be unnecessary or redundant, but maybe a good idea? Will I make a million bucks? 😎😎😎

I don’t think the phone will be in the right environment on a regular basis for gravity+inertia to have time to take hold.

I could be wrong though as I’m in nursing and not physics.

The extra weight would have to be a lot to tip the phone on the right angle on such a short drop. But hey, keep sharing ideias and maybe you find a million dollar one.

Or, at least one worth a couple of bucks . . . . 😂🤣😂
