vrAse by Louise Bankhead, a designer based in Edinburgh, United Kingdom, is a smartphone case that addresses a common issue when it comes to using such devices for entertainment purposes: the screen is too small. Although the benefits of such a drawback outweigh the negative, with this goggle-like case, a person won't even have to start a pros and cons list.
Essentially, vrAse by Louise Bankhead holds the smartphone up close and personal on the wearer's face to create a more immersive experience. Super compact, portable, affordable, hands free use and upgradable device, the case is compatible with iPhone 5, HTC One, Xperia Z, Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 2 models. It is currently on Kickstarter to raise funds.
