Magnetized Smartphone Body Mounts

ClipLess Lets You Discreetly Stick Your Phone to Yourself

— June 5, 2013 — Tech
Storing your smartphone in your pocket or purse may become a thing of the past thanks to ClipLess. The aptly named device lets you affix your phone to yourself or your bag without needing a clip. ClipLess comes in three parts: a mount that goes onto the back of your phone, a clip for the mount and a magnet. The magnet is strong enough so that it won't slide off when stuck to clothing or a purse.

The video here shows ClipLess in action, with users doing everything from sticking it to their shirts to jogging with it. Don't let the iPhone example throw you off. ClipLess can be used by just about all types of phones, provided they have the space for the clip.

3. Simplifying Personal Technology - The development of ClipLess highlights the trend of simplifying personal technology, making it easier to use and integrate into daily life.
Industry Implications
1. Consumer Electronics - The consumer electronics industry, particularly smartphone accessory manufacturers, can capitalize on the growing trend of magnetic mounts and other wearable tech.
2. Fitness and Wellness - Fitness and wellness industries can benefit from the trend of magnetized smartphone mounts by offering products that enable hands-free use during physical activity.
3. Fashion and Accessories - The fashion industry can adopt and market the trend of magnetized smartphone mounts as a new type of accessory, integrating personal technology into fashion and lifestyle.
