Today has gone so well with the products I stumbled upon that I'm even happy to tell you about an iPhone case - I mean, you are picturing this, right? Fact is that I’m really happy to finally see an iPhone case that has actually a useful feature, namely the Beamer, from Quirky. What's so special about this so much that I am content to talk about?

Well, the fact that is has a built-in light. That and only that adds enough versatility to the iPhone case that it should be bought by regular users. Just thinking about it, you will quickly realize that there is a ton of situations when you would wish for a flashlight, but never actually have one, or can get one. Besides that, the built-in light of the Beamer iPhone case doubles as a flash light for your device's camera.

Made of hard, durable plastic, the case comes in a friction-fit and two-piece design. Users only have to slide out the Beamer's base and insert their handheld devices. Operation of the light is as easy as it gets, namely resumed to the simple pressing of the silicone button. Pressing it once will get you light for 10 seconds, which is more than enough to take a picture. Pressing the button twice in a row will leave the light on indefinitely until you don't need it anymore, which is useful for when you need light to read some specs or tag in the dark. Turn it off by pressing the button a third time.

The Beamer's super bright LED is powered by the integrated battery that comfortably rests inside the case, so you don't need to worry that this will drain your iPhone's battery. With a $32.00 commit now price, there are more than 460 more people needed for this to start production.
