Phone-Answering Totes

The HiSmart Bag Syncs with Your Smartphone While it's Out of Reach

— January 10, 2015 — Tech
Jacket and pants pockets often take preference for phone storage since these places are most convenient for quick access; however, the HiSmart Bag was developed to let you put your handset away without completely cutting you off.

Lepow has designed a no-frills canvas bag that's convertible from a backpack into a messenger bag. It integrates 17 pockets that encourage you to stash your smartphone when you're on the go. Relieving you of separation anxiety, the tote connects to your handset with bluetooth, alerting you of incoming calls and messages with its own vibrate function. A speaker and a microphone in the HiSmart Bag let you answer calls with the push of a button in the strap. An early look was created to visitors of CES 2015.
