With the fact that the excessive length of the cable from the headphones is a problem, everyone agreed for a long time - wasted minutes on untiing knots, scuffs and damage from carrying in a pocket. But you don't want to give up freedom by shortening the cable either, right?
Therefore, accessory designers work tirelessly to create devices that can eliminate or minimize the inconvenience of an excessively long cable while leaving the iPhone owner maximum freedom. We've already written about a project on KickStarter called the TurtleCell Case, which is a plastic iPhone case with a built-in spring mechanism to “tuck and store” the headphone cable.
Another project recently appeared on the same crowdfunding resource KickStarter, offering its own original, and rather simple, solution to this problem. Its name sounds - Cordli case. Basically, it's an iPhone case that lets you store excess cable in a groove on the back of the case. The Cordli case is designed for use with the iPhone 4 / 4S and 5 and any headphones that use a 3.5mm cord, such as Beats by Dre or Soul by Ludacris.
With the Cordli case, there is no need to wrap an extra cord around the case or stuff it into a pocket, damaging and tangling it. It is enough to insert the excess cable into the winding groove on the body. Thanks to the invention, 10 or 20 inches of cord (25 or 50 cm) can be neatly “stacked”.
Cordli case successfully combines both style and functionality. True, despite its low cost ($ 15), only 6 people became interested in the project, who in total invested $ 185 in it. Not enough, especially when you consider that the Cordli case creators plan to collect by October 9 the $ 8.9 thousand necessary to start the production of cases.
