A cellphone can double up as many things – a torch light, calculator, alarm, newspaper – and many more. A cellphone is never thought out to be a life saver and never as a bulletproof vest. Until now. An Atlanta man is breathing today thanks to his HTC phone which doubled up as a bullet proof vest.

The phone battery of his HTC phone took the bullet for him and left him unscathed. And the person will be using HTC phone for the rest of his life. Future tests for cell phones should include bullet proof tests. You know, just like water proof, dust proof and drop proof. The phone in question is HTC EVO 4G. It can be renamed as “HTC Bulletproof”. That would be in line with HTC’s other phones like Thunderbolt.
