Another technological brainchild of Exeger’s founder Giovanni Fili (who won ‘European Inventor of the Year’ a couple of years ago), the Urbanista Phoenix is another solar-powered product to have on your radar. How is the Urbanista Phoenix different from the Urbanista Los Angeles? While the Los Angeles adopts a headphone design, the Phoenix are earphones. This makes them the world’s first solar-powered earphones with a streamlined charging case, which like their West Coast counterparts, also feature Powerfoyle.
Released just a year after the Los Angeles, the Phoenix earphones continuously recharge when stored in the self-charging case and exposed to any light, whether natural or artificial. They are inspired by the desert scenery of Arizona, one of America’s most sun-drenched states and come in black, sand and grey tones ripe for your picking.
Other features to highlight are the advanced hybrid active noise cancelling technology and noise-reducing microphones that filter out ambient sounds so you can revel in crystal clear audio.
With a reasonable price point of £139, the sustainable gadgets are ideal for musically inclined eco-warriors.
