The conceptual 'ERA' portable cassette tape player has been designed by Hugo Jonasson as a modern device that supports the revival of the humble cassette tape. The device will work to play your choice of cassette tape and is capable of outputting the content through a set of headphones connected via a 3.5mm jack or Bluetooth thanks to wireless connectivity. The device also features WiFi along with physical buttons for playback control and a small display for monitoring battery levels, track information and more.
The conceptual 'ERA' portable cassette tape player maintains a monochromatic design that features no color on the display and a steely metallic finish to make it look more like a high-end piece of modern technology.
