In summary:
- Macworld introduces the new Classic LS case from Spigen that transforms the iPhone 17 Pro into a nostalgic homage to the original 128K Macintosh computer from 1984.
- The $40 case available on Amazon features authentic design elements, including stone coloring, a distinctive “hello” power button, and a cord slot for Apple enthusiasts.
- Spigen’s open embrace of the Macintosh theme suggests a potential endorsement from Apple, making this retro accessory particularly appealing for the company’s 50th anniversary celebration.
The original Macintosh 128K, unveiled in 1984 with a truly Orwellian advertising campaign, remains a source of fascination and nostalgia for Apple fans more than 40 years later. And third-party companies are aware that this fascination can be monetized.
In the past, we’ve covered an Apple Watch stand that makes your watch look like a small Macintosh, a Windows mini PC with a familiar look, and a cute replica of the Macintosh that’s half the height of a Coke can. Now it’s the iPhone’s turn to get a retro Mac-themed makeover, thanks to a new case created to celebrate Apple’s 50th anniversary.
Spigen’s Classic LS case for iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max is available on Amazon for $40. It features the classic matte “stone” color palette (don’t call it beige!) and weather-appropriate details. The power button, for example, features the familiar cursive “hello” of the Macintosh interface, and there’s a cord slot below the camera control that reminds me of the aperture of a 1980s camera. Even the logo is reminiscent of Apple’s rainbow design.

Spigen
While some manufacturers remain coy about their inspirations when creating nostalgic products, Spigen is quite open about the Macintosh theme, posing the case in front of an original Macintosh unit. This suggests that either Apple has given its blessing, or Spigen has very good (or very bad) legal representation. Either way, if this sounds good to you, grab it now before stock runs out or Apple gets mad.
