Anime-Themed Phone Chargers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Pokeball Charger Helps Pokemon Go Players' Battery Life

— July 20, 2016 — Tech
Pokemon Go has become notorious for being so addictive that users often run out of phone battery before they can catch 'em all, so an enterprising Etsy user has begun selling a handmade pokeball charger. The USB charger is simple enough, but its charm comes in allowing the Pokemon Go-obsessed to simultaneously rep their Poke-pride while keeping their phones poised to capture whatever monsters are around.

The battery pack contained in the Pokeball charger is 5300mAh with 2.1 amps, meaning that it contains as many as three full phone charges, and has USB and micro USB ports. Though the Pokeball chargers resemble the fictive devices thrown in the game, the creator warns that the chargers are delicate and will break if thrown.

This piece of Pokemon-themed apparel shows the dedication that consumers have for flaunting their love of a franchise.
Trend Themes
1. Pokemon-themed Phone Accessories - Creating a line of Pokemon-themed phone accessories could capitalize on the popularity of Pokemon Go and the trend of fandom-themed fashion.
2. Novelty Battery Packs - Developing unique and novel battery packs with creative and fun designs presents an opportunity for businesses to market to both tech enthusiasts and pop culture fans.
3. Gaming-inspired Tech - Enhancing technological gadgets with gaming-inspired designs could appeal to younger consumers who value personality and uniqueness in their tech products.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion Accessories - Fashion accessories manufacturers could consider licensing popular franchises like Pokemon to create a range of game-themed products.
2. Consumer Electronics - Consumer electronic companies could diversify their product range with creative battery packs and other innovative gadget accessories.
3. Gaming Accessories - Gaming accessory companies could expand their product lines beyond traditional controllers and headsets to include gaming-inspired tech accessories like phone chargers.
