Minimalist Mobile Chargers

The Banuul BBG-1400 Seamlessly Complements the iPhone's Clean Design

— January 23, 2013 — Tech
The service that the Banuul BBG-1400 provides is already enough to make the bajillions of iPhone users happy when their handsets run out of juice on-the-go. Those who truly appreciate the sleek design of the iPhone 4 and 5 will just love the way that this invaluable source of power is packaged.

Jeongin Park and Jungsik Yun of Korea's DesignMU conceived this portable charging device, working to keep it the same width and thickness as the Apple smartphone. Not only that, the corners have been rounded to the same degree as the cellphone and the finish is a crisp white to match the lighter model of the device.

A broad protruding plug allows you to connect your iPhone or your iPod directly to the Banuul BBG-1400. To refuel the gadget, a retractable USB can be inserted into your computer.
