This Kodak C400R Bluetooth Speaker concept has been designed by Hyunjun Yu as a decidedly minimalist piece of audio equipment that draws inspiration from photography equipment. The speaker features a camera-like design aesthetic that's clean, minimalist and stylish for audiophiles alike to incorporate into their mobile device collection. The speaker delivers clear audio when listening to music, taking a call or even watching a movie, and connects wirelessly to any device to maximize compatibility.
