1. March 2013: Tylt Vu

No, it’s not a designer shoe horn or a fun slide for mice; it’s the Tylt Vu, and if your smartphone charges wirelessly using the Qi standard, it’s your next must-have accessory. Drop a handset into its 45-degree cradle and microscopic nanobots pass from the 5W charger directly into your battery and restore it to health. Comes in yellow, blue, red or black, for whatever phone side you’re batting for this contract term.
Price: $75 | Tylt | Out April
