Sometimes, a gadget comes along that I love, or want to love, but I’m also unsure that it makes any sense whatsoever. Reader, the tinyPod is one of those gadgets.
The tinyPod (via MacRumors) is a small device — a case, essentially — that wraps around your Apple Watch and turns it into a small iPod. Instead of wearing the watch around your wrist, you carry it in your pocket, and use the iPod-like scroll wheel to control it.
Apple Watch 8 vs. Apple Watch SE: How do they compare?
The idea, according to the project’s website, is to “transform the most powerful mini computer in the world into something new.” And it does make sense; the Apple Watch can do a lot of things, but I mostly use it to glance the time, track workouts, and check on the occasional food delivery time. By putting it (sans the wristband, of course) into an iPod-like form factor, you might be more inclined to unlock more of its functionality, and if you have a cellular version, you can even use it as a super-small phone.
