Top 10 iPhone skins for Singaporeans

In view of the popularity of the iPhone culture amongst Singaporeans, SGTOP10 has written 2 articles to help readers discover more about iPhone and their apps. Now that we already know what are The top 10 free apps for Singaporeans and how to personalize your ringtone in 10 steps, we think it is time we looked at some iPhone protection.

SGTOP10 suggest that iPhone users should get a skin or back cover for their iPhone, it not only protects your prized asset but also adds a little personal touch to the boring back or white.

For those contemplating on getting an iPhone, SGTOP10 suggest that you should consider getting a skin or back cover first. After all you would not want to be adding any scratches to that prized asset right?



10 Branded Stuff

This iPhone carry bag simply brings out the class and “Tai Tai-ness” in the ladies. While the phone is very safe from knocks and scratches when in the bag, the same cannot be said when it is out for usage. Like all fashionable clothing, they are nice to look at but totally useless when it comes to practicality.

We highly recommend it for those who think that class is a must and cash is to splash.

When it is September again and the F1 Fever will be in town. Driving down the half finished street circuit lightings and spectator stand makes me feel like a boy racer once again, hoping to be the first car at every traffic junction so I can floor my accelerator when the lights go out (or rather go green).

But how many times are we allowed speeding from junction to junction? All those speed traps, all those clutter of Toyotas and TPs (Traffic Police) hiding in unimaginable places. Your 24 points will run out before you finish the 5.4 kilometers track.

There is a better way to get into the F1 atmosphere or enhance that boy racer image Get a carbon fiber case for your iPhone. Carbon fibers are used in racing cars because they are light in weight and very strong. We do hope that this iPhone cover will be the same as well.

In the past recent years, the prices of DSLRs have taken a plunge and owning a DSLR is now very possible. At less than US$1000 you would be able to get an entry level DSLR. If you made your purchase at one of the computer shows, you would have been showered with freebies.

It is so common now that everywhere we go, we see Singaporeans with cameras hanging from their necks. Giving Singaporeans the benefit of the doubt, we choose to believe that the population has become more cultured, artier, we are into photography!

Now, you would ask what has this got to do with iPhone cases? Take a look at this unique case, it features a case with exchangeable lens! Won’t that bring out the photographer in you? One problem we see is that the iPhone will become bulky and might not fit your pocket but a DSLR won’t either.

All male Singaporeans above 18 years of age would have gone or is going through National Service. National Service is good; it turns boys into men, brings a sense of responsibility and makes you stronger physically.

Well all is good up till the point where the national service is complete and we are automatically enrolled in this never ending cycle of yearly In-Camp Training (ICT). To make things worse, for security reasons we are not allowed to bring our precious iPhone into camps! Fret not, we found the perfect iPhone skin. Check out this up-to-date digital camo design iPhone skin, we have reasons to believe that this will blend into the new SAF digital camo design uniforms and breeze pass the PR gates. Once again, like how we were taught in the Army, “anything also can, just don’t get caught!”

iWood

As the name says it all, this cover made of wood! These wood cases are available in maple, cherry, oak, mahogany, padouk and walnut. As per claimed by Miniot themselves no two pieces of wood are alike. We choose to believe that as time passes by, the cover will soon be a classic, seasoned with enhanced wood gain look. So this phone cover is great for Singaporeans who want to be really unique. Well, there’s always a price to pay for being different, 88 Euros to be exact.

Conventional mobile phone users will find the iPhone rather bulky. There seems to be no signs of sliming down even after 2 hardware revisions ( 3G and 3G-S). We suggest that for users who mind the extra bulk of a back cover to go for this slim film. With this film on it should easily slip into that fitting jeans for a girls or guys night out.

However if even after applying this slim film you are still unable to slip it into your jeans, our suggestion is that you should still stick to the good old exercising or dieting.

Singaporeans love shopping for shoes. When the weekend arrives, shops like Charles & Keith seems to put up huge magnets. Singaporeans being little iron filling tend to be attracted easily, packing into these shoe selling shops like sardines in a can!

If there was a poll on which country has the most humorous people, I dare to say that Singaporeans will not be ranked in the top 10. Of course we do laugh our ass off at American pranks or British humor but have you realized that most Singaporeans do not know how to create laughter? I would encourage Singaporeans to be bold, expose yourselves to silliness and don’t hold back when pulling that next prank on your friend.

Sometimes to be able to pull of a prank one would need some tools. Get the blinkcase iPhone case. You would say what so funny; it has nothing different from rubber cases everywhere else? Well, take a closer look, it resembles a hand grenade. Once in a while you could create humor by throwing your phone across the room and shout, “grenade, grenade”! While certainly you will be able to pull of this prank and create laughter, we are not sure what the Homeland Security will do to you after.

Why do we have so many different types of iPhone cases? The only answer is because Singaporeans strive to be unique; we need to customize everything to our liking. Take the Toyota cars on our Singapore roads for example. There has to be at least 10,000 of them in Singapore. Take a closer look and you will find each car some how or rather has some type of customization done.

No difference for iPhones, Singaporeans need to be and will make their own iPhone unique. Take a look at leftskins.com. They make customized iPhone skin to your liking. SGTOP10 suggest customizing your iPhone with a skin of your own picture. This will surely be the most unique skin that money can buy, err unless you have a twin.
