The Trunk iPhone cable is one charging cable that can actually be called "creative." Unfortunately most cables used to charge the iPhone are anything but. This unique design, created by the ingeniously named ILoveHandles, pulls double duty as a stand for your smartphone. Trunk is primarily meant to cut clutter. Normal charging cables are prone to tangling, but this one isn't. Its stubby design makes it ideal for those who constantly find themselves with more stuff on their desk than they should have.
In addition to charging your phone, the Trunk iPhone cable also acts as a stand. This may not seem like a big deal, but those who spend money on iPhone stands will probably be stoked to have a multi-functional alternative.
