Unique accessory supports your phone and promises "super fast" wireless charging
While we continue to see some innovation in the smartphone industry with in-display fingerprint scanners, pop-up selfie cameras and new foldable form factors, the smartphone accessories business is also benefiting from new ideas. A company out of South Korea called Hurkins has developed a wireless charging smartphone stand called Bluesphere that not only offers what it calls "super fast" wireless charging, it also supports the phone allowing for hands-free use of the device.
Hurkins has been taking pre-orders for the accessory on Indiegogo. With 97% of the target $10,000 raised so far, and with 22 days left in the funding campaign, production of the Bluesphere seems like a lock. The wireless charging smartphone supporter is available in Silver and Black for $99. That is a 56% haircut from the $229 that the product will retail for once launched.
The company expects to start shipping Bluesphere this coming May.
