Umsunguli wePebble uyazama ku-Kickstarter ngekesi le-iPhone elikhokhisa ama-AirPods akho

U-Eric Migicovsky wasungula i-Pebble (inhlanhla futhi ngenxa ye-Kickstarter) emuva ngo-2012 futhi kusukela ekuqaleni wazama ukungena emakethe ye-smartwatch. Imikhiqizo yabo ibidume kakhulu uma kucatshangelwa ukuthi bekuyinkampani eqoqa imali. Kodwa ngonyaka odlule, iPebble yathengwa nguFitbit, futhi ngemva kweminyaka emine, yaphela. Nokho-ke umsunguli wale nkampani ubengabhorekile ngoba izolo wethule omunye umkhankaso kuKickstarter. Kulokhu, akuhloselwe ingxenye yewashi elihlakaniphile, kodwa kubanikazi bama-AirPods angenantambo nabanikazi bama-iPhones kumuntu oyedwa.

Wasungula inkampani iNova Technology, futhi inomsebenzi wayo wokuqala e-KS, okuyisimbozo esisebenza ngezindlela eziningi se-iPhone, esebenza njengebhokisi lokushaja le-AirPods. I-PodCase inikeza izinto ezimbalwa kubathengi abangaba khona. Okokuqala, leli "icala elincane" le-iPhone (yize lingabukeki "lincane" kakhulu ezithombeni). Ngaphezu kwalokho, iphakheji iqukethe ibhethri elihlanganisiwe elinomthamo we-2500mAh, elingashaja kokubili i-iPhone yakho nama-AirPods (kulokhu, ibhethri kufanele likwazi ukushaja ama-AirPods izikhathi ezingu-40). Ukushaja kwenzeka ngesixhumi se-USB-C, esiba yisixhumi esikhulu sokushaja ngemva kokufaka ikesi.

Njengamanje, kuthengiswa izinhlobo ezimbili, ze-iPhone 7 ne-iPhone 7 Plus. Ababhali bephrojekthi bamemezele ku-Kickstarter ukuthi ngemuva kokwethulwa kwe-iPhone 8, kuzokwaziwa uku-oda ikhava yalo mkhiqizo omusha okade ulindelwe.

Empeleni, icala lizosebenza ngokuvumela kokubili i-iPhone nebhethri elihlanganisiwe ukuthi lishajwe ngesikhathi esisodwa. Konke lokhu sibonga ukusetshenziswa kwesixhumi se-USB-C, esifaneleka kakhulu kulo msebenzi kunombani wobunikazi. Ngokusho kwababhali bePodCase, ibhethri elihlanganisiwe kufanele lishaje yonke i-iPhone 7.

Njengamanje iphrojekthi isesigabeni sokuhlela ukukhiqiza. Izigameko zokuqala eziqediwe kufanele zifike kumakhasimende ngesinye isikhathi phakathi noFebruwari 2018. Mayelana nentengo, okwamanje kukhona ambalwa asatholakala ngo-$79, njengengxenye yesigaba sokuqala sokusekela. Lapho laba abambalwa (abangu-41 ngesikhathi sokubhala) bethengisa, okuningi kuzotholakala ngama- $ 89 (angenamkhawulo). Intengo yokugcina lapho i-PodCase izothengiswa khona ngemva kokuphela komkhankaso kufanele ibe ngu-$100. Uma unentshisekelo kuphrojekthi, uzothola lonke ulwazi nezinketho zokusekela iphrojekthi lapha.
