V-MODA, the multi-platinum selling designer of headphones trusted by the pros and elite, unveils the immediate availability of their new Metallo designer cases for the Samsung Galaxy S III and iPhone 5. Metallo defends your smartphone in style with a perfect balance of solid tactile feel and lightweight portability.
Designed as a standalone case or to work in parallel with V-MODA’s recently announced VAMP VERZA mobile Hi-Fi amplifier, DAC, and Battery charger, Metallo features interchangeable back plates for maximum versatility. This includes a solid aluminum plate and the VERZADOCK which bolts onto VAMP VERZA’s 4-bolt main design so you can slide and lock the phone to this portable audio powerhouse.
Metallo is forged from a single aluminum metal block machine milled and laser-cut through a state-of-the-art, precise design process that takes one hour to complete each case. The exquisite attention to detail is evident in the most subtle nuances of the Metallo from the unique V-ANGLE design to the tactile audio feedback of switching back plates which emulates the sound of unsheathing a sword.

“At V-MODA, we have an insatiable desire for perfection in every product we design,” states Val Kolton, Chief Visionary Officer at V-MODA. “Metallo truly embodies that principle with a rare and meticulous design process.  With the hundreds of carbon copy plastic smartphone cases on the market, Metallo stands out as a metal masterpiece that will make your friends ask, ‘where’d you get that case?’”
