LunaTik Reveals Its Unique iPhone 5 Case Lineup

LunaTik made its grand debut when launched the world's first premium aluminum made watch kits for Apple's iPod nano in late 2010. Now that Apple ceased the iWatch revelation when it released the redesigned 7th generation iPod nano, LunaTik is strongly focused on making styluses and most recently, iPhone 5 cases. The guys at iLounge were lucky enough to get their hands on one of LunaTik's new Seismik iPhone 5 suspension-frame case ahead of its CES debut. The slim - albeit wide and tall drop protective $35 case, is a hybrid of hard plastic and shock absorbing rubber designed with a colorful smoked backing, and a unique truss suspension perimeter featuring a built-in vibrate switch and covered buttons.

LunaTik will debut the following protective cases in multiple colors at CES 2013: 

The TAKTIK EXTREME case - Premium Protection System with Corning Gorilla Glass 2 for iPhone 5. TAKTIK EXTREME offers the highest level of overall protection in our TAKTIK Series.  EXTREME delivers refined and ultra-rugged protection from impact, drops, and screen damage as well as water and dust ingression. Featuring an industry-first Corning Gorilla Glass lens, EXTREME provides ultimate shatter protection without compromising touchscreen responsiveness. 

The TAKTIK STRIKE case - Designed to protect from the most extreme impacts and drops. STRIKE features the same patent-pending shock absorbing 9mm Impact Truss and ballistic bezels as TAKTIK EXTREME, as well as sealed audio and charging ports.

The SEISMIK case - Suspension Frame for iPhone 5. SEISMIK is built for the unexpected everyday drops in life.  SEISMIK utilizes the same patent-pending Impact Truss system of the TAKTIK series, providing a lean and mean case with serious drop protection for the iPhone.

The FLAK case - Dual-Layer Protection for iPhone 5. FLAK is lightweight armor for your iPhone constructed out of two low profile layers of protection. With an internal soft TPU material and an external hard polycarbonate outer shell, the materials create a thin, protective jacket for the iPhone. 

In addition to the ‘Protect’ series of iPhone 5 cases, LunaTik will also have ‘Create’ products on hand. These include the dual-mode Touch Pen, designed for seamless analog/digital workflow, and the new Chubby Stylus for artists of all ages. LunaTik has yet to announce an official date of availability for its iPhone 5 case lineup, but we're confident it'll be in late January.

TakTik By LunaTik, Most Bad Ass iPhone Case

LunaTik's TakTik is the most bad ass, most over-engineered iPhone case we've ever seen to date. And it even looks like it'll serve you as some self defence weapon with all of that aura of toughness surrounding it. LunaTik wants to redefine protection with the TakTik case, but it also looks like it managed to redefine the case designs of today too. LunaTik's TakTik is done right from all angles and doesn't skimp on any little detail.

It features a shockproof suspension system featuring a 9mm Impact Truss silicone perimeter compressed between two durable Ballistic polymer bezels or anodized aluminum bezels depending on the TakTik case model you end up getting. The front bezel includes an adhered compression seal liner to protect from rain seeping into the case. The rear of the case features an unobstructed camera opening that maintains brilliant photo and flash quality almost as if the case wasn't there. This sandwich construction compresses the silicone truss with the help of multiple steel torx screws creating a suspension system to cradle your iPhone like the precious baby it is.

Ports including mic and speaker holes are completely sealed against the threat of water with Gore Acoustic audio pass-thru membrane technology and rubber gasket plugs. The TakTik also features a machined aluminum headphone port hinge cover that was inspired by Panerai watches. The dock connector port plug is also made out of machined aluminum ensuring durability and better sealing that won't fail after daily usage. Finally, a small patent-pending silent button inspired by a gun safety switch will let you easily activate your vibrate switch on and off. Despite the bulk of this case, every single feature of the iPhone has been dearly taken care of with ingenious attention to detail by LunaTik.

The TakTik case can also be upgraded to have a tough Gorilla Glass screen protector complete with anti-glare and anti-smudge coatings in order to provide another layer of screen protection that isn't going to impede on sensitivity or on your finger-smooth gliding action. LunaTik's TakTik case for the iPhone 4S and iPhone 4 is available to pre-order via Kickstarter starting at $75 (will retail for $100), in white, black, silver and anodized aluminum colors. LunaTik is also promising a TakTik case for the upcoming iPhone 5. Head over to the TakTik product page for more. Catch the video after the break!
