The 'Phone-Thrones' smartphone dock is a fantasy-themed solution for Game of Thrones fans to place on their workstation or bedside table to keep their device on hand in a mythical manner.
The dock comes in two options including the Lite and Complete with the former featuring an analog design and the latter integrated with a spot for the optional Quick-Charge device. This will provide wireless power to the docked device to eliminate the need for physical connections and has compatibility with all four Qi standards including 5W, 7.5W, 10W and 15W.
The 'Phone-Thrones' smartphone dock is crafted from high-quality plywood that has been laser-cut and sourced from 100% sustainably managed FSC-certified forests. This is positioned as a more eco-friendly option than aluminum, steel and plastics for a sustainable build.
