April 4, 2014
Happy Friday. Welcome back to our weekly look at some of the newest iOS device accessories to hit the market. While many companies seemed to be focusing on crafting that perfect April Fools' joke, here are some products that you can actually purchase.
Nike Waffle Case for the iPhone 5s/5
Featuring the texture of an iconic outsole from the shoe company, the Nike Waffle Case is designed to protect the iPhone 5s/5 from scratches and minor impacts. Made from recycled Nike Air units, users have access to all controls and ports.
While the case usually retails for $35, you can snag it on Nike’s site now for $19.97. Buyers can select from a black, blue, or green version of the case.
Neptor NPSP01
Weighing in at less than a third of a pound, the colorful new Neptor NPSP01 Bluetooth speaker features interactive touch technology. Music lovers can press and hold the speaker to power it on, play or pause music, and answer or end phone calls. Twisting right or left controls the volume. The speaker comes with a built-in suction stand so it can be placed pretty much anywhere. The rechargeable battery can go for up to 3.5 hours playing music before needing to be recharged.
Available in a number of different bright color options – blue, purple, red, orange, and green – the NPSP01 can be ordered now directly from Neptor’s site for $49.99.
Vettra ST for the iPad Air from Sena Cases
A thin folio case for the iPad Air, the Vettra ST offers an integrated stand to place the tablet into multiple angles for typing or media viewing. The leather case’s magnets activate the automatic on and off function of the tablet.
Buyers can select from a black, tan, or gray version of the case. It can be ordered now directly from Sena for $69.95.
Logitech X100 Mobile Speaker
About the size of a donut, Logitech’s new X100 Mobile speaker connects to your iOS device via Bluetooth. Along with playing music, users can also take phone calls with the speaker. The built-in battery offers up to five hours of music playback before needing to be recharged.
The speaker retails for $49.99 and can be ordered now from Logitech. Buyers can select from one of five colors – green, gray, orange, red, and yellow.
Logitech Bluetooth Adapter
If you don’t want to have to purchase a new set of speakers to wirelessly stream music, Logitech also has you covered. Its new Bluetooth adapter can turn virtually any sound system into a wireless speaker. With multipoint Bluetooth technology, users can connect both an iPhone or iPad and stream stereo audio from either device.
The adapter is $39.99 and can be ordered directly from Logitech’s site now.
