I’m sure you’ve picked up on the trend of iPhone cases that do more than just protect the device- we’ve seen designs with kickstands and others with compartments for headphones. Finally, here’s one that has both! The Ö Case features a multifunctional component that stores ear-buds and also doubles as a stand to prop up the device. It’s still compact enough that the user won’t notice a difference in size.

Cheers to the designer, iteration is key to achieving good design. The problem here, is that the designer didn’t use the constructive criticism from their previous iteration (https://www.yankodesign.com/2012/05/15/iphone-case-that-makes-sense/) and succeeded in creating new problems for this design:
Small parts will be lost or broken and users will not return for a second case (bad business solution). The earphones still don’t fit inside that volume. The fully assembled case will lack rigidity and will likely fit awkwardly into the user’s pocket.
I love the concept. And congratulations to the designer for listening to potential consumers of his idea.
I think it is very well resolved and I don´t think that this solution has more problems than others cases that you are currently on sale.
To improve and there is always time my friend and that’s what I like about this new version.
