The conceptual 'Gabby' smart 360 speaker is an intuitive audio solution for avid music or content enthusiasts that will offer them a better way to enjoy their favorite audio out of the house.

The device features a [sand-like texture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jbl-grip) that is present on the entirety of the [cylindrical form](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aura-speaker), which helps to increase the grippy nature of the speaker. A sticky pad on the underside of the speaker allows it to be positioned just about anywhere without requiring additional equipment to make it ideal for placement anywhere for a [360-degree audio experience](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tribit-stormbox-mini).

The conceptual 'Gabby' smart 360 speaker is the design work of BEPOP Design for Mymanu and has been rendered in two color options including black and coral.
