iPhone inspired by Tesla’s Cybertruck now available for preorder
Russia’s Caviar is known for lavish, extremely expensive iPhone modifications, but its new product will turn heads for different reasons.
It’s called the Cyberphone, and yes, it’s an iPhone mod with a design inspired by Tesla’s Cybertruck.
It’s essentially an iPhone 11 Pro inside a titanium case that protects it from all sides. On the front, there’s a titanium screen protector that folds into a holder that props up the phone vertically when placed on a flat surface.
It doesn’t appear to be very practical, but it probably does offer pretty strong protection for your phone — though Caviar’s promo video (below) seems to make fun of the product by including Elon Musk’s Cybertruck window fail alongside copy that says “absolute screen protection.”
The Cyberphone doesn’t have a list price (we’ve asked Caviar about it and will update the article when we hear back), but only 99 units will be made, so it’s safe to assume it’s not cheap. If you’re interested, you can request a price and pre-order the Cyberphone over at Caviar’s website.
At first glance, the Cyberphone seems pretty insane, but it’s a smart play on two extremely popular brands — Apple and Tesla. Caviar is probably betting that there are enough fans of both the iPhone and Cybertruck to generate interest, and it’s probably right.
