Consumers are starting to see more and more mobile phone protectors that offer a second function. It's great that so much material can be efficiently used to further enhance your smartphone. The Linkase by Absolute Technology looks like a fairly standard -- albeit high quality -- iPhone case, yet it features a slide-out strip that acts as an antenna.
Flush with the rest of the polycarbonate back, the EMW element runs about half of the length of the smartphone cover's back and can be pushed most of the way out. Integrated with your handset, it's been designed to seek out Wi-Fi signals to strengthen your internet connection. The impressively practical second purpose of the Linkase by Absolute is complemented by a well-crafted look. Interchangeable elements enable customization and a leather coating adds value to its feel and appearance.
