The New iPhone 6 Designs from Element Case Ensure Style and Function

— November 16, 2014 — Tech
With the coveted iPhone 6 and 6 Plus being released to the joy of Apple fans alike, the new designs coming from Element Case are pushing the boundaries for what can be considered stylish while still also maintaining absolute function. The new line from Element Case features the Solace, Ronin and Soft-Tec to suit whatever your style or usage needs dictate.

While my personal favorite is the wooden Ronin, each design offers protection from drops regardless of angle. What's awesome about the new designs from Element Case is how they look to add style to the iPhone's without additional bulk or frills. The seamless construction of each one sets a precedent that few other varieties on the market are likely to achieve.
Trend Themes
1. Stylish Smartphone Cases - As smartphone usage proliferates, designing stylish cases without adding any extra bulk or frills is a lucrative area of disruptive innovation.
2. Seamless Smartphone Case Construction - Seamless construction of smartphone cases sets a new precedent that few varieties on the market are likely to achieve, potentially opening up disruptive innovation opportunities.
3. Protection-focused Smartphone Case Designs - There is a growing market for stylish smartphone cases that offer protection from drops regardless of the angle of the phone, with a potential for greater innovation in this area.
Industry Implications
1. Smartphone Accessories Industry - The smartphone accessories industry must engage in disruptive innovation and offer stylish and innovative options that offer protection for phones to stay relevant in the market.
2. Luxury Smartphone Accessory Industry - Luxury smartphone accessory manufacturers can capitalize on the trend of stylish smartphone cases by offering premium designs for tech-inclined fashionistas.
3. Woodworking and Metalworking Industries - The woodworking and metalworking industries can create new revenue streams by producing high-quality materials for premium smartphone cases while pushing for innovative designs.
