'Supercalla,' the company most known for its IndieGoGo campaign for self-winding cables in 2020, has officially debuted its Supercalla Cable. The Supercalla Cable features small magnetic wrappings along its stem that allow it to stick tightly in a coil, preventing it from getting tied up in a pocket or backpack.
In addition to the magnetic wrappings, the Supercalla Cable features capabilities for both data transfer and power charging. Available in USB-C, Micro-USB, and Lightning head endpoints with either USB-A or USB-C connectors on the other end, the Supercalla Cables are fit for consumers with nearly any mobile device or tablet. The magnetic connectors are also convenient for more cases than just preventing tangles, as the magnets can stick to parts of backpacks, desks, or other metal surfaces.
