Ivan Zhurba - a table lamp that uses an old iPhone as a light and speaker

A lamp that recycles old iPhones into light bulbs and a speaker.

You have one in your drawer, right? The poor, neglected iPhone 4S, which served you faithfully all, sorry, all year. How can you be so heartless as to leave your once most faithful companion unattended in a dark room the minute a younger smartphone comes by, when it could be proudly shining or playing music on your desk. Thanks to designer Ivan Zhurba, this is now possible, as he has developed a lamp that lures old iPhones out of dormancy and uses them as a light and speaker.

Ivan Zhurba has developed table lamp, which does not use light bulbs, as they take their place used iPhone smartphones, which also serve as speakers. This way, you can give your old iPhones a second life and restore some of their former glory.

The lamp is compatible with "pensioners" 4, 4s, 5 and 5c, which hide in the groove of the minimalistic designed table lamp. Their behinds remain exposed for the firefly to occupy LED lights, which phones in a previous life used for flash when taking pictures. The charging cable is part of the lamp as well sound tunnel, which amplifies the sound coming from the iPhone speaker.
