While mobile technology is making more compelling products, there are still some limitations that don’t seem to have a solution yet. That’s why there are some accessories meant to solve some of the most common issues, although they might often add some bulk to smartphones and users might need more than one accessory to cover all of the problems. WonderCube is a nice little gadget which is attempting to solve many of the shortcomings at once while being extremely portable. This device has been nominated for CES 2016 Innovation Awards.
At first sight, the WonderCube looks like a cube-shaped keyring, it is compact and ultraportable as it measures 1 cubic inch, but then, you’ll start noticing that the surface is filled with lines and movable pieces. One of its components is a cable you can use to charge or transfer files between your device and a computer (or any other device that features a USB port, for that matter), it is available in a version with a Micro USB port for most Android devices or another version with a Lighting port for iOS devices, the flexible cable measures 3 inches and it folds and gets stored in the small cube. The small cube can also be used as a stand for your device whether you want it in portrait or landscape mode, it features a micro-suction cup surface so it can be easily attached at the back of your device and you just need to find the angle you desire for a better viewing experience.
Users can also plug the WonderCube into their devices to transfer files OTG as it has three internal storage options, 16 GB, 32 GB or 64 GB, this only works on Android for now. There’s an integrated Micro SD card slot, so users can expand the memory of their phones for up to an additional 64 GB. This is quite useful if you plan to take pictures or capture video and you are running out of memory. For those emergencies where the battery of your phone is running out, the WonderCube features a battery charger, so just grab a 9V battery from the store and charge your device for up to 3.5 hours of extra talking time. The small cube even integrates an LED torch to help you in those low-light or dark scenarios. This gadget will become available for pre-order on March 11 through and Indiegogo campaign.
