Fifty-fifty though in that location's barely anything to the HiddenRadio2 Speaker, I tin can't get enough of it. Designed with true minimalist spirit, this metallic blob looks unsuspecting at outset. Then you place your finger on the top and open a Pandora'southward box of opportunities!

Designed with about no buttons (or any visible speaker at first), the HiddenRadio2 looks similar a metal version of the Pokemon Diglett. To ability it on, just place your finger on the capacitive bear on enabled peak and the metal housing dramatically lifts upwards to reveal a tiny withal versatile and powerful 360° speaker below. The touch surface on the top of the speaker takes intendance of pretty much everything and paired with the HiddenRadio app on your telephone, you have yourself a tiny and powerful audio-device/AI-assistant. The touch surface on the speaker can be tapped, swiped, and swirled, allowing you to control playback and volume. It can fifty-fifty activate Siri, allowing you to connect to the net and fifty-fifty to your smart-home. The speaker tin also be used every bit a speakerphone for around-the-table conference calls, and what's most interesting is that information technology can be paired with multiple HiddenRadio2 speakers to simultaneously fill your room or entire home with audio. And when you're done, merely tap on the speaker once again and the metallic hood lowers, concealing the speaker, near similar magic!
