That’s right, it doubles as a 3200mAh power-bank and uses your smartphone as a cassette.

We’re two musicians who appreciate good sound and, you guessed it, the 80s. There’s nothing better than kickin’ back with a John Hughes flick or dancing with your friends to Dexys Midnight Runners. The 80s were a bold, colorful and lively decade and we wanted to introduce a bit of that nostalgia into today’s world. So we combined two of the things we love most to create pl8ty- a product that goes back to the future. We hope you’re as excited about this retro design as we are,” said its creators.
