Who said you have to wait two hours to charge? At CES 2025, an innovative product called Swippitt IPS became the center of attention and changed the way we think about charging smartphones. Swippitt IPS offers a quick and easy charging process that can be completed in two seconds, allowing for a "plug and play" experience.
Two seconds to charge? It looks like a scene from a sci-fi movie, but the secret of Swippitt is its innovative "Instant Power System" (IPS). This system combines digital technology and mechanical engineering, and its main device is the Swippitt Hub, a desktop module that resembles a toaster.
The Swippitt Hub can store and charge up to five 3,500mAh battery modules simultaneously, and it uses exclusive software for optimal management of batteries. When you connect your smartphone to the Hub, the system will automatically replace the old battery with a new fully charged battery within two seconds. The replaced battery will charge immediately to be ready for the next use.
Not only is Swippitt IPS fast, it's also ideal for multi-user settings. For example, in a home or office, five battery modules can be used by people in succession. After one person uses the system, others can use it within seconds. In addition, the Swippitt Hub has a minimalistic design and comes in a variety of colors that can be used in any place.
Aside from the hardware, Swippitt has also released a mobile app that shows battery life, system status, and smartphone location. There is also an anti-theft feature to prevent unauthorized use of batteries.
However, Swippitt IPS is not perfect. For now, the battery modules only support the iPhone 14, 15, and 16. Although Swippitt has promised to expand support to Android devices and other iPhone models before the end of 2025, the range of early adopters is limited. Additionally, the price of the system is not cheap: each Hub unit costs $450, and each battery module is priced at $125. If you buy the whole set with five battery modules and a Hub, the cost will reach more than $1,000. It may not easily replace traditional charging methods for common users.
For those interested in Swippitt IPS, you can pre-order now and get early bird discounts, including 30% off for the month of January and a CES special discount of $100, which ends on January 17. The first batch of products are expected to ship in June 2025.
Swippitt IPS is a perfect combination of technology and design aesthetics, suitable for heavy smartphone users looking for a faster and more convenient charging method. We'll see how this changes our view of charging in the coming years!
