The Better Cable is a leather charging cable bracelet that ensures that you always have a way to boost your mobile device's battery on the go, and look stylish all the while.
There are some other wearable cables on the market, but these designs tend to disregard form in favor of function. The Better Cable takes both form and function into consideration and makes sure that the micro USB or lightning connector is concealed when it's wrapped around your wrist. The bracelet for iPhone and Android devices is made with a braided leather and works just like a regular cable, except that it's shorter than the average cable. Since there are tons of people who are sick of carrying around a dead cell phone, it's no surprise that the campaign on Kickstarter has already more than doubled its initial goal.
