Smartphone Tramp Stamps

The iTat Forever Brands the Backside of Your iPhone

— November 1, 2011 — Tech
Matching tattoos between humans and smartphones were impossible before the invention of the iTat. The iTat is a unique wrap that permanently etches a design onto the back of your iPhone's case. The wraps can be of both preset or custom designs.

The iTat is perhaps the ultimate iPhone customization. A case or cover can be removed from a phone, but the iTat is forever provided you don't replace the back cover. The iTat is a DIY accessory designed and created by Sirtified. The designs are applied at home which is convenient, but risky if you don't have steady hands. The wraps sell for $15 for a pre-made design and $20 for a custom one. You can check out images of the iTat here and decide for yourself whether or not you want to forever brand your iPhone.
