There are two things we are certain of in this world: the iPhone 4S is a runaway success for Apple, and people who have lots of money will gladly spend it to showcase said money. Case in point: this solid gold iPhone 4S case from Miansai.

As you might expect, these lavish gold cases come made to order and are handmade, but if you think that a $10,000 solid gold iPhone case won’t turn enough heads – you can always get it engraved to suit your tastes.

While these cases are certainly not the most intricate or fancy iPhone cases we have seen, and believe us we have seen many, they definitely top the list as most expensive. If you’re questioning what to do with that extra money you have this holiday season, and want to make a very expensive statement, then look no further than Miansai’s golden answer.

Have an old iPhone? GameStop will give you great cash for it

GameStop mobile trade in program with phones and more

This content was produced in partnership with GameStop.
Apple’s iPhone lineup has some of the highest resale value amongst mobile devices, and that’s especially true right now at GameStop. GameStop offers some of the highest trade-ins for a number of iPhone models, with their offers in many cases besting the likes of Apple, Best Buy and even Gazelle. Whether you’re looking to upgrade to a newer iPhone model or just add some extra cash to your pocket, you don’t want to make a trade-in until you’ve dropped by GameStop for an offer.

Why you should trade-in your old iPhone at GameStop
Now is as good a time as any to trade in an old iPhone. With everything announced at Google I/O and the iPhone 15 launch event likely slated for Apple's usual September date, we know where old devices stand amongst both definitive and potential forthcoming devices. When you combine this timing with GameStop’s offers for old iPhone trade-ins, right now is a good opportunity to sell high. If you have an Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max, you can get as much as $900 at GameStop for a 1TB model, and the Apple iPhone 13 can bring you up to $578 if you have a well-treated 512GB model.

This small gadget gives you the iPhone 14’s best feature for $149

The Motorola Defy Satellite Link dongle.

When the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro launched last year, one of the hallmark features was their integrated satellite connectivity — enabling you to call for help or share your location with loved ones using satellites. Now, the Motorola Defy Satellite Link is launching in North America, allowing you to send satellite messages from your existing smartphone.

Announced at MWC 2023, the Motorola Defy Satellite Link is a small, key fob-like device that pairs with your iPhone or Android phone via Bluetooth and, in doing so, connects your smartphone to satellites orbiting Earth 22,300 miles away in space.

Have an iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch? You need to update it right now

If you own an Apple product — be in the iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, or a Mac — you should update it immediately. Why? Apple has begun rolling out updates to all of its devices with fixes for a serious security vulnerability.

The security vulnerability is known as CVE-2023-32434, and it has to do with the kernel privileges of Apple devices. Per Apple's website, the vulnerability allows third-party apps to "execute arbitrary code." In other words, if a bad actor knows how to exploit this vulnerability, they could potentially gain access to your Apple device and wreck havoc.
