This preposterous spiked case addresses snatch-and-grab thefts, common in cities like London.
The “Unsnatchable” iPhone case seems to actually be a real product — though made from silver, likely quite expensive
The project appears primarily aimed at raising awareness about phone theft.
Google just gave Android users a powerful new tool to help keep their phones and data safe with Theft Detection Lock (https://www.androidauthority.com/android-theft-detection-lock-test-3491674/) in Android 15. The system uses the sensors on your phone to detect if a thief ever grabs it out of your unsuspecting hands and runs off with it — locking the phone (and your info) in the process. But for as useful as that promises to be, today we’re checking out a slightly different approach to the problem that is all about preventing that initial snatch.
Phone theft is a problem all over, but the creative agency Joan is focusing on London with what seems to be a bit of a tongue-in-cheek awareness campaign centered around an iPhone case it’s calling “The Unsnatchable (https://www.theunsnatchable.com/)” (via Cult of Mac (https://www.cultofmac.com/news/the-unsnatchable-iphone-cases)).
