Theres one with a guy using a Nokia Lumia. He hammers on every side with it powered on. No damage and no scratches.

They should make a tv that is also a canopener and a dvd player that is also an electric razor. How about a coffeebrewer that is also a litterbox ?
A gps with built in tire-iron maybe ?
How about people with brains ? Now That would be usefull....
