Yantouch has a new [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magsafe-trio)/[iPod](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tinypod) dock coming out called the Yantouch Black Diamond.

The latest gadget from Yantouch packs beauty and elegance into a tiny egg-shaped ball. The Yantouch Black Diamond starts off as a black sphere, but then starts to change colors as music starts to play. Yantouch is even thinking about programming apps to turn it into a [glowing mood lamp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/govee-table-lamp-2-pro-x-sound-by-jbl). The Yantouch Black Diamond fuses art and technology brilliantly.
