Unveiled at CES 2015, the revamped Kube provides everything you need to keep the party going. The cooler is embedded with a hi-fi audio system and USB capabilities to charge your phone. This way you can keep your drinks cold, listen to great music and prevent your battery from dying all with one handy device.
Available for pre-order and expected for this summer, Kube has a sleek design and is extremely portable. The Bluetooth-integrated stereo can play for up to 20 hours on one charge and quite loudly too. The LED-lit interior space is insulated to keep your drinks and sandwiches cool (and visible). A back panel contains a USB port, power port and auxiliary audio input in addition to a drain plug. The audio controls are on the lid.
