On such gadget is a new iPhone case that has emerged on the market and is causing a stir among iPhone lovers.

The new case, which is being sold by Urban Outfitters, is called the "80s Cell Phone Case" and is being sold for $20.00.

The phone is 2.5 inches by 7.5 inches and resembles a cell phone from the 1980s in its boxy shape and bulky size.

On the company website, the phone case currently has no customer product reviews, however, iPhone fans on twitter have been reposting articles and comments that are devoted to the “Friggin’ Hispster-Style iPhone Case."

Elizabeth Fish of PCWorld calls the case, “possibly a one-minute-wonder accessory despite the price, but worth a bit of fun if you’re looking for a case that’s a little less generic.”

The '80s Cell Phone Case is not the first unique iPhone holder to come out on the market. One company, known as Thumbs Up, will release an iPhone case known as the “Ear Phone Case” this September. The large case is made in the shape of an ear and could easily absorb half of one's face when used due to its size.

Urban Outfitters were not available to comment on the new product to The Christian Post at time of press.
