We're living in a world with a million and one choices when it comes to consumer products, especially smartphones, but the RePhone Create Kit allows users to create their own modular device with ease. Able to use the included components or an existing smartphone, the RePhone Create Kit allows users to customize the core strength and ability of the device as well as the external housing.
Surpassing its goal on Kickstarter, the RePhone Create Kit has been received with open arms by many consumers and investors who are tired of waiting for Google's Project Ara, which would be a modular smartphone with interchangeable components. With the imminent release of the RePhone Create Kit, it's clear that in the future smartphones might be made by consumers instead of purchased pre-assembled.
