BUQU, an electronics brand, specializes in fashion-forward charging accessories that function as playful key chains as much as they do mobile power banks.
At CES 2017, BUQU showed off a number of new accessories, which took the shape of faux fur pom-poms, popsicles, watermelon, penguins and even glow-in-the-dark ghosts. In addition, the electronics brand created a power bank with DJ and producer Steve Aoki. In honor of the Miami-born artist's live performance trick where he throws a fluffy cake at those close to the front, BUQU shaped the power bank into a slice of the sweet treat.
With a USB charging port that's compatible with both iPhone and Android devices, an LED fuel gauge and a 2,500mAh battery, the cake-shaped BUQU power bank is perfect for music festival and concert attendees who need to conveniently charge their phones.
