Reetle’s smartink I is an iPhone case with an e-ink display that lets users flip their device and read books without screen glare.

What's an example of "cool functionality"?

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

It's a matter of preference of what you think is cool.

I think this case is cool. You don't need to carry two separate screen devices. Just flip the phone over and you've got an e-ink display.

Another example would be MM720 mouse. Most people think Logitech or Razer mouse are cool but my vote goes to MM720 because it has better quality switches and ring finger rest. 🤷‍♂️

IR blaster was cool, but that was android first and now nobody does it

Why do you think nobody does it anymore? Because no one cared about it or used it.
