Remove wires from our devices has a price: have to load them. Headphones are a clear example of this, and depending on the autonomy charging them can be quite tedious. How would you like a dock loading where to leave them when you do not use them and that the time charging the battery? This which exists since a long time ago for our smartphones is something that at the moment no reigns with headphones, but Twelve south has dared to solve it with your support Fermata, that also serve to place your headphones while you don’t use them you can recharge them, and not only that, but it also has another USB output to connect another device , and even a small support for headphones smaller.
Like any Twelve South product Fermata is a design and materials of first quality. Aluminum base is large and heavy enough to endure without headphones problems of any size, and although it is not adjustable in height you shouldn’t have any problem with any model. Also aluminum mast ends in a piece of padded skin where to place the headband headphones. The ensemble is impeccable, and black matte remains of wonder in any desktop. If you want more game with your iMac or MacBook aluminium you can choose the option silver, also available.
The surprise of this stand is in the back. Perfectly hidden in the mast found a rubber cable we can get with a reversible microUSB connector. Yes, won’t have to guess (and fail) position to connect the cable to your headphones, porque Twelve South has done what no has occurred to others in years, a microUSB connector reversible which is a delight for those who hate this so uncomfortable connector. When not it use, hide it again in the mast until the next time that it need. The cable is covered with a very flexible rubber that allows you to move it far enough to connect it to any handset, wherever you are charging Jack. Also even use small support (can be removed) to put a headset cable and even upload them.
The base includes a surprise more: one connector USB to plug another cable of load for your iPhone, Apple Watch or iPad. Can take advantage of the Fermata support to charge two devices at the same time, pure efficiency. Perhaps in the base is the only point negative of this support, since the materials used are of rubber and not seem to be very chords with the rest, in addition to accumulate dirt easily. That Yes, it’s completely anti sliding.
We are ultimately to an ideal support for your bluetooth headset that allows you to charge them while not the usas, and which also can take advantage of it as boot from another device, ideal for other brand as the base HiRise iPhone accessories. An ideal gift for Christmas that you can find on the page of Twelve South for a price of $79.99. Hopefully not take to reach other stores online like Amazon.
