UNIQFIND, a shop that offers elegantly designed accessories for electronics, created a Samsung Galaxy Note7 case in memory of the model's dangerous build.
After reports surfaced of consumers claiming that their phones had exploded in their pockets and airlines even had to ban the devices from flight, it was recalled and discontinued. Given the frequency of these reports, as well as the discussion that circulated online, the Samsung Galaxy Note7 case for iPhones is a functional novelty product with a strange sense of humor.
Dubbed the 'EXPLO-SUNG,' the design emulates the appearance of an exploded battery and even includes Sumsung's brand name on the back, making the case well-suited to smartphone users who are fervently team Apple.
