It is packed with modern technology despite the [vintage look](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintageinspired-technology-tech-brand-kickbacks-discman-is-nostalgic) as users can scroll through their Instagram feeds using wireless and Bluetooth connectivity. It can aid users in uploading both photo and video content. It is a physical interaction with the social app, straying away from the usual touchscreen experience. There are dedicated buttons on the device that cater to interactions with followers, scrolling through the feed, sharing content with friends, and typing out responses and comments directly on the gadget. It is fueled by a battery so it can be on the go if not plugged in.
