Cassette tapes have experienced a bit of a resurgence in recent years but are still greatly outweighed by the convenience of the smartphone, so the 'Pl8ty' portable Bluetooth speaker is intended to help merge the two in a style-conscious way.
The speaker draws design inspiration from the cassette players of the past, but is outfitted with some of the latest advanced technology components like Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity and a 3,200mAh battery pack. The unit will open up to reveal a space that isn't for use with a cassette, but instead acts as a dedicated spot for a smartphone to wireless charge it using the internal power bank.
The 'Pl8ty' portable Bluetooth speaker also boasts a range of connectivity ports include USB-C to make it a future-ready audio solution.
