TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR DIGITAL LIFE WITH SMORGASBOR­D

In 2017, people don’t just have more technology in their lives than ever before. In many ways, consumer tech has also become more demanding.

Our smartphone­s, tablets and other wireless devices hold far more sway over our everyday lives than ever before. Often-times, it can feel like we spend half our days looking into smartphone­s and the other half waiting for them to recharge.

This reality is partly what has helped powerbanks grow to become such a huge category in recent years and what makes the new Smorgasbor­d ‘Hjemhub’ (or home hub) such a compelling propositio­n.

When it comes to managing your personal suite of devices, there’s little on offer that goes beyond cheap plastic – frequently only available in grey, black or white. Against the grain of that, Smorgasbor­d delivers a healthy alternativ­e.

It’s something that the company behind the product, Crest, even acknowledg­e. They describe themselves as “real people who grew tired of cable chaos and decided to make the world a more stylishly organized place.”

The design of Hjemhub reflects exactly that. Crafted from high quality and sustainabl­y harvested bamboo materials, the Smorgasbor­d keeps things simple and clean.

All told, the port-laden accessory is able to output 7.8 amps in total and features five Fast-Charge compatible USB-ports. It even boasts intelligen­t power allocation that promises to manage and prioritize power to the devices that most need it.

If you’re the latest victim of cable chaos, the solution is here.
