Although Zagg is known for its widely popular Bluetooth keyboards, the company is generating a significant amount of buzz at CES 2016 for a new product called the 'Now Cam.'
The Now Cam is a pocket-sized camcorder that is small enough to fit inside one's shirt pocket. The camera itself is capable of recording 720p video and boasts a 120 degree field-of-view. As far as memory, the camera has a 4GB built-in flash memory, which translates into 30 minutes of video or about 1,600 photos. However, what truly sets the Now Cam apart is the addition of a Bluetooth speaker. Unlike other action cameras, this particular camcorder can be used to make calls or even stream music from your phone.
The pocket-sized action camera is the perfect option for those who are looking for a camcorder that can double as a speaker system when necessary.
