OMG LED Case for iPhone Turns Notifications into a Disco Party
August 9th, 2012
If you can’t wait for FLASHr to come to fruition, or if clear transparent cases just don’t do it for you, then check out OMG Cases for iPhone, that light up like a Christmas tree whenever you get a new push notification.
The OMG Cases come in a couple of different designs, but these cases don’t just rely on the LED flash to let you know about a new notification, nope, they light up thanks to LEDs at the bottom of the case and some kind of optical fibers embedded directly into it. The cases actually pulsate brightly whenever there’s activity on your phone.
I’m not sure if there’s an extra battery in the bottom part of this case or if it’s just for the LEDs to suck on your iPhone’s battery through the dock connector. Each case sells for $29.95 (USD) here.

Another one of my ideas hits the market! – The idea for a lighted iPhone case first came to me in 2007 after the launch of the iPhone 2G and with previous success selling such products for phones like the Nokia 3390. Though my design was less bulky and the case only flashed when sending/receiving calls without the use of any batteries or power source (Power came from the Cellular Signal). I however chose to abandon the idea after failing to attract enough interest from my investors who thought the iPhone was too “High End” for such novelties. Another idea I had in 2007 for the iPhone 2G was the equivalent of the Dock for the Motorola Atrix, only my design had more features/functionality.
