BuQu Tech Unveils 2013 Product Roadmap for Magnetyze™ Magnetic Charging System

CAMARILLO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Magnetyze™ magnetic charging system product family by BuQu Tech (www.BuQuTech/Magnetyze.com) will soon be welcoming some new additions.

“Now, iPhone and Android users can peacefully co-exist on the same charging platform. We’re putting the principles of magnetics to work for smartphone users who appreciate functionality, style and the ability to grab their phone and go without the hassles associated with legacy charging devices.”

BuQu Tech, a recently-formed subsidiary of Battery-Biz^® Inc., the leading U.S.-based manufacturer and distributor of consumer electronic power accessories, today announced its product roadmap for 2013. Magnetyze by BuQu Tech applies patent-pending magnetics technology to keep 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.

“’Magnetyze’ is the new verb in mobile, bringing the magic of magnetics to iPhones, Androids and, over time, any number of other smartphones,” said Raj Mitra, VP, Product Development at BuQu Tech. “It’s the foundation for an entirely different approach to mobile accessories, a richer yet simpler alternative to any case or charging system on the market – one that addresses the need for both power and protection. And while the iPhone 4/4S bundle is here now, we’re delighted to unveil our product roadmap for 2013. As we said at launch this past summer, the iPhone 4/4S bundle is just the beginning.”

Before this year is out and continuing into 2013, BuQu Tech will release roughly a dozen products, among them:

Magnetyze Bundle for the Samsung Galaxy S3 (Protective Case)
Magnetyze Bundle for the Samsung Galaxy S3 (Replacement Back Cover)
Magnetyze iPhone 4/4S Case with integrated battery pack
Magnetyze Case for the iPhone 5
Magnetyze External Battery Pack, doubling smartphone runtime
Magnetyze Car Stand, which mounts/charges Magnetyze-enabled phones in the car
Magnetyze Wall Charger, which charges any Magnetyze-enabled phone by magnetic attachment to a wall-mounted AC adapter
Magnetyze Multi-Bay Charging Stand
Magnetyze Case/Stand for the iPad
Magnetyze Charging/Data Sync Disc, a sleek form factor charging/data sync system for all Magnetyze-enabled phones
Magnetyze Flip Charging/Data Sync Stand, a sleek form factor charging/data sync stand for Magnetyze phones that fold flat

“As the 2013 product lineup demonstrates, Magnetyze is the perfect solution for families who use more than one smartphone platform because every phone equipped with a Magnetyze protective case is instantly compatible with every Magnetyze accessory,” said Shari Gibbons, COO, BuQu Tech. “Now, iPhone and Android users can peacefully co-exist on the same charging platform. We’re putting the principles of magnetics to work for smartphone users who appreciate functionality, style and the ability to grab their phone and go without the hassles associated with legacy charging devices.”

When it’s time for Magnetyze users upgrade to a new smartphone, only the protective case needs replacement. The desk stand, magnetic charging cable and other Magnetyze-branded accessories will work with any and every Magnetyze smartphone case.
