The Krimston Two lets you run two SIM cards on one iPhone … at the same time

Upcoming: Krimston TWO - Dual SIM case for iPhone
For the smartphone that does everything, you need a case that does even more. Such as turn your one iPhone into two. Meet the Krimston Two, described as “a 1 phone solution to a 2 SIM card problem.” This clever little device lets your iPhone (6 or 6s only, please) accommodate an additional line, which means you can have simultaneous SIMs active at basically the same time.

The perfect solution for globetrotting smartphone users who constantly find themselves switching out their SIM cards based on their geography, the Two is heralded as the very first iPhone case that will not only allow for multiple active SIMs, but will also act as an Internet hotspot, and will provide extra power thanks to its built-in battery pack.

“This product is ideal for iPhone owners and travelers across the globe,” said Krimston CEO Fouad Fattal. “We are eliminating the hassles associated with carrying a phone for work, a phone for travel, a phone for data, and another for leisure.”

The real value behind the Two is its expansive functionality. Thanks to its companion app, you’ll be able to access all the info from your primary SIM (including phone calls and text), even while your backup is running. The Two will also monitor your Internet activity and adjust the Wi-Fi signal as needed, which means that you’ll never be aimlessly draining your battery.

In order to bring this concept to fruition, Krimston has launched its flagship product on Kickstarter. Already, 223 backers have brought the Krimston team nearly a third of the way to its $100,000 goal, with 22 days still to go in the campaign.

So if you’re looking to become an early adopter of the Krimston Two, you can currently pre-order one of these handy cases for $99. With a promised delivery date of July, this version of the Two will be the first to hit the market, and users are encouraged to give Krimston their feedback. The rest of the iPhone cases will be delivered in August, and the device will hit the mainstream market in November, with an expected retail price of $199.

The iPhone 17 may get one of the biggest design changes in five years

The iPhone has had a distinctive look since its initial release in 2007. Sure, the sizes have changed, as have materials, but you can generally glance at an iPhone of any generation and say, "Yeah, that's an iPhone." Now, a rumor suggests that the iPhone 17 could draw inspiration from its predecessors and bring back the curved edges that have appeared several times throughout the generations.

Leaker Fixed-Focus Digital shared on Weibo (a Chinese social media platform) that the iPhone 17 would reintroduce the rounded sides of the first few iPhones, doing away with the straight edges current models have. Some fans find the straight sides less comfortable to hold, although a case can make a big difference in how the phone feels in your hand. Fixed-Focus Digital doesn't share further details, but Apple tends to differentiate its premium lineup from the base models. The design change could apply only to the base versions of the iPhone 17, to only the Pro and Pro Max versions, or to every version.
