Beyond the cheap iphone 5 cases integration, features offered on the outside of the vehicle include 18-inch Galvano Grey alloy wheels with chrome wheel covers, chrome iBeetle badges placed on the front fender, black-sill kickplates on the door with the iBeetle signature as well as side mirrors and trim panels in Galvano Grey.

Regarding the interior, the car’s owner can also add a Galvano Grey steering wheel, a customized shift lever grip, Galvano Grey dash accents and sport seats in black leather.

Influenced by Apple’s color choices for products, the color choices for the paint job on the Volkswagen iBeetle include “Oryx White Mother of Pearl Effect, Deep Black Pearl Effect, Black Monochrome, Candy White, Platinum Grey and Reflex Silver.” These colors are also found on products such as the MacBook Pro, cheap iphone 4 cases and iPad. Volkswagen has not released information related to engine and transmission options for the iBeetle and will wait until closer to the launch date to announced those details. Volkswagen is also silent on the price of the iBeetle, another detail that will have to wait until 2014. At this time, Volkswagen hasn’t announced any plans to release a version of the Beetle that’s compatible with Android or Windows Phone devices.

However, not all of these people work for Samsung. Indeed, the SamMobile blog last week revealed that it had heard whispers from South Korea that some at Samsung believe plastic isn't quite fantastic.It appears that the metal sophistication of the iPhone 5 and the recent appearance of the dsd43DS HTC One, with its very pretty all-aluminum nature, have injected additional quandaries into Samsung's furrowed brows.

This has resulted in strong pulses suggesting that the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 may be metal or perhaps some other substance. But not plastic.Moreover, there apparently existed a metal prototype of the Galaxy S4 that had a lot of souls leaping in Seoul. The time difficulties associated with mass producing such metal phones may have influenced the ultimate choice of the S4's familiar plastic.

Defenders of plastic offer a myriad of practicalities in cheap iphone 5 cases design use. But perhaps there is a bigger question: given how successful both the S series and the Galaxy Note have been, has plastic become something of a brand differentiator for Samsung?
