At 2013 CES, BuQu Tech Offers First Showcase of Magnetyze™ Charging Systems for Samsung Galaxy S® III and iPhone 5
CAMARILLO, Calif. --(Business Wire)--
2013 International CES (News - Alert) promises to be magnetic.
At next month's Las Vegas extravaganza, Magnetyze™ by BuQu Tech (www.BuQuTech/Magnetyze.com)
will be in all the right places - on display at the company's MGM Grand
suite, at the ShowStoppers press event -- January 8, from 6 p.m. to 10
p.m. at the Wynn Hotel/Lafite Ballroom - and at CES Unveiled: The
Official Press Event of the International CES, from 4-7 p.m. on January
6 in the South Seas Ballroom C at the Mandalay Bay Hotel. BuQu Tech is a
recently-formed subsidiary of Battery-Biz® Inc., the leading
U.S.-based manufacturer and distributor of consumer electronic power
accessories.
Magnetyze by BuQu Tech applies patent-pending magnetics technology to
keep iPhone (News - Alert) and Android smartphones charged, synchronized and ready to
"grab and go." The high performance Magnetyze platform eliminates
multiple cords, clumsy cradles and the need for new charging accessories
with every smartphone upgrade.
Magnetyze is the first charging platform to enable Android (News - Alert) and iPhone
users to share a charger. When it's time to upgrade to a new smartphone,
only the Magnetyze protective cover or back plate needs to be replaced.
The desk stand, magnetic charging cable and other Magnetyze-branded
accessories will continue to work with any available Magnetyze
smartphone case - Android or Apple (News - Alert).
On display at CES for the very first time:
-
Magnetyze Magnetic Charging System for Samsung Galaxy S®
III. In its first bundles for the Android market, BuQu Tech is
offering two packages. The first, the Magnetyze Magnetic Charging
System With Replacement Back Plate, is available for $59.99.
Designed for Samsung (News - Alert) Galaxy S III users who prefer a charge-only
option, this configuration replaces the phone's original rear cover
with a back plate that offers seamless attachment to any Magnetyz
charging stand. The back plate comes in two popular colors - gloss
white or metallic blue - and includes a Magnetyze Desk Stand and
magnetic cable. The second - the Magnetyze Magnetic Charging System
With Protective Case - sells for $69.99. This option offers
Samsung Galaxy S III users the ability to both charge and sync their
data and protects their phone against daily hazards with a sleek,
ultra-slim and light protective cover and polycarbonate bumper that
fits over the existing Samsung phone with the original back cover in
place. The protective case is available in gloss white or gloss black
to complement a wide range of Samsung phones and comes with a
Magnetyze Desk Stand and magnetic cable for easy charging and data
sync.
-
Magnetyze Magnetic Charging System for iPhone 5. BuQuTech will
preview its Magnetyze bundle for Apple's latest smartphone, which will
go on sale in early Q2. Tailored to the iPhone 5's larger form factor
and new Lightning connector, the iPhone 5 bundle contains the
Magnetyze protective case, desk stand and magnetic charging and data
sync cable. As with the iPhone 4/4S, users simply slide the iPhone 5
into the lightweight Magnetyze protective case and attach the
polycarbonate bumper over their smartphone. Magnets integrated into
both the case and desk stand enable seamless attachment and
simultaneous charging and data synchronization. Through the magic of
magnetics, users can swivel their Magnetyze-enabled iPhone 360 degrees
for both vertical and horizontal use - without detaching the phone
from the stand or disrupting charging or synchronization.
-
Magnetyze Extended Battery Magnetic Charging System for the iPhone
4/4S. For iPhone users wary of seeing just a sliver of white in
that battery meter in the upper right-hand corner of the screen, BuQu
Tech will showcase the newest way to double smartphone runtime. Priced
at $89.99, the system consists of a protective case that includes a
built-in extended lithium-ion battery, shielding the iPhone 4/4S from
daily hazards, while tackling that all-too-common hazard of running
out of juice. Sleek, slim and light with elegant soft-touch finish,
the Magnetyze Extended Battery Magnetic Charging System adds up to 40
hours to the iPhone's battery life, 10 hours for video and movies and
7 hours of talk time or web browsing.
