Hear the beat, see the beat, BE the beat! The “iEqualizer” is a battery-powered hard case for the iPhone 5 that displays a luminescent rainbow-colored bar graph cued by the music you're listening to.

The open-faced polycarbonate case wraps around the sides of your iPhone 5, providing protection from life's hard knocks. That's the practical part; now comes the fun! Once you've installed two CR2032 button batteries (test batteries are included) in their proper slots, the back of your iPhone5 instantly becomes a colorful graphic equalizer.

Meanwhile, the front display screen and all required input/output jacks, buttons and so on remain unobstructed. The iEqualizer's luminescent display fluctuates along with any music you might be playing on your iPhone 5.

Not listening to music? No problem – the bars move in response to any other sounds, vibrations or background noise in the immediate area of your iPhone 5.

The most noticeable difference from standard iPhone 5 hard cases is the prominent rectangular module that juts up from the top of the case. Its purpose is to house the guts of the display mechanism and having it there allows the case to remain conveniently thin for ease of carrying.

If you have one of those equalizer t-shirts from way back when and always wondered how such a technological marvel could be topped, here's your answer: the iEqualizer iPhone 5 Hard Case. They're priced at 200 yuan (about $30) each and can be ordered direct from the product page (in Chinese with some English) at the Strapya Taobao website.
