Get the Note 7 effect with these explosive iPhone skins

A new set of iPhone skins offers the appearance of a burnt out handset, much like what a defective Galaxy Note 7 can result in.

Yes, the Galaxy Note 7 was a hot mess. It was an explosive, incendiary affair – and one could even say the phone was just too hot to handle.
No, we won’t stop with the jokes, because our next one is our favourite yet; if you want your iPhone to resemble the husk of an exploded Note 7, you can now officially buy a vinyl skin to do so.

Available for $25 USD with fit options for every iPhone model all the way back to the iPhone 5, the Explo-Sung iPhone skins ensure that your iPhone looks just like the wreckage of Samsung’s recent disaster. If, perhaps, you’ve exchanged your Note 7 and have proceeded to convert to Apple, this might well be a brilliant way to feel a little more at home.
Of course, an alarming idea to many Apple purists is the concept of obscuring the Cupertino company’s iconic logo – worry not; each skin is professionally printed and is cut to reveal the Apple logo, so you can still flaunt your latest financial investment to passers-by.
If anything, it’s a fun and slightly trivial way to make light of one of the biggest disasters in the smartphone history to have ever occurred. We’re all about turning tears of sadness into tears of laughter, and we couldn’t help having a chuckle at the Explo-Sung iPhone skin.
