Popslate 2

Your iPhone gets a second screen

When the original Popslate debuted, it caused quite a stir – here was an iPhone case with an E Ink display on the back to display notifcations, news and more. Popslate 2 builds on that foundation in a number of ways. It has a larger screen – now 4.7-inches at 200dpi – and a Lightning port to simultaneously connect to your iPhone and charge it up. You can also flick through five different apps using the capacitive buttons near the bottom of the screen. Popslate’s maker say this all adds up to saving your iPhone’s battery by keeping the LED display switched off.
