A year after launching a modified version of the iPhone 12 for privacy-conscious users, luxury brand Caviar has now launched a new line of Stealth iPhones that can stop bullets. The new Stealth 2.0 iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max are customized with a layer of BR-2 class 2 bulletproof armor strong enough to withstand a single shot. NPO TCIT, a brand specializing in combat helicopters and armored vehicles, has created a bulletproof body. Like its predecessor, Stealth 2.0 removes all cameras (rear and front). However, turning off the front camera on Stealth 2.0 can render Face ID useless.
Therefore, Stealth 2.0 Iphone no biometric authentication capabilities. The luxury brand demonstrated new features, including bulletproof armor, in a video. Caviar, which is known for creating custom and luxury versions of smartphones, says removing the camera allows users to work with their phones in areas where cameras are not allowed.
The video shows a man shooting at a Stealth 2.0 iPhone with a pistol. While the phone lost its function, it prevented the bullet from going through the armor.
“Most likely the owner will recover with bruises,” the company said, adding that if fired twice, the owner will be severely bruised but avoid a gunshot wound. It says the phone can withstand up to two bullets, and the second makes it unusable.
According to the company website, only 99 units of this improved version, first launched in 2020, will be produced. Buyers have the right to choose between a iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max with up to 1TB of storage. The most affordable version of the new lineup will sell for $6,370 (about Rs 4.85 lakh) and the flagship iPhone 13 Pro Max with 1TB of storage will cost $7,980 (about Rs 6.08. ).
