At 2013 International CES, BuQu Tech Previews Magnetyze™ Magnetic Charging System for iPhone 5

Magic of Magnetic Charging Brings ‘Grab and Go’ Convenience to the iPhone 5; Magnetyze is First Charger Compatible With Both iPhone and Android Platforms

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Smartphone users will get a sneak peak at the new Magnetyze™ by BuQu Tech (www.BuQuTech/Magnetyze.com) Magnetic Charging System for the iPhone 5 during 2013 International CES^®, which begins today.

“Magnetyze offers iPhone 5 users all the features they’ve been asking for in a charging system and more”

Scheduled for pre-sale availability in early Q2, the Magnetyze Magnetic Charging System for iPhone 5 is the latest addition to the Magnetyze family of magnetic charging accessories – the first charging accessories compatible with both iPhone and Android platforms.

The new iPhone 5 charging system will be on display at the company’s MGM Grand suite throughout CES and at the ShowStoppers press event – January 8, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at the Wynn Hotel/Lafite Ballroom, Table A47.

Magnetyze by BuQu Tech applies patent-pending magnetics technology to keep iPhone and Android smartphones charged, synchronized and ready to “grab and go.” The high performance Magnetyze platform eliminates multiple cords, clumsy cradles and the need for new charging accessories with every smartphone upgrade. When it is time to upgrade to a new smartphone, only the Magnetyze protective cover needs to be replaced. The desk stand, magnetic charging cable and other Magnetyze-branded accessories will continue to work with any available Magnetyze smartphone case – Android or iPhone.

“Magnetyze offers iPhone 5 users all the features they’ve been asking for in a charging system and more,” said Ophir Marsh, CEO, BuQu Tech, which introduced the Magnetyze family to the iPhone 4/4S in 2012. “It’s the ideal solution for individuals and families on the go who appreciate being able to share a charger with others and saying goodbye to the hassles and expense of purchasing new charging devices or other accessories every time they upgrade.”

Tailored to the iPhone 5’s larger form factor and new Lightning connector, the iPhone 5 bundle contains a Magnetyze protective case, desk stand and magnetic charging and data sync cable. As with the previously released iPhone 4/4S, users simply slide the iPhone 5 into the lightweight Magnetyze protective case and attach the polycarbonate bumper over their smartphone. Magnets integrated into both the case and desk stand enable seamless attachment and simultaneous charging and data synchronization. Through the magic of magnetics, users can swivel their Magnetyze-enabled iPhone 360 degrees for both vertical and horizontal use – without detaching the phone from the stand or disrupting charging or synchronization.
