Organize your desk with these beautiful charging stands that are on sale
At least when it comes to laptops, research has shown that 60 percent of us consumers gravitate toward certain gadgets because we like the way they look. (What can we say? We’re shallow like that.)
The downside of buying devices for their aesthetic appeal is that most electronic accessories are, frankly, kinda ugly. Because of this, we’ve pulled together some attractive yet functional stands and charging docks that even the snobbiest of design snobs would appreciate, and put them in the Mashable Shop. Here are six we think you’ll love, all of which happen to be on sale:
If there’s anything one can do to instantly improve a workspace, it’s eliminate cable clutter. Enter: Oakywood’s 2-in-1 charging dock, a modern and understated desk accessory made from dark hand-shaped walnut. It can accommodate an Apple Watch and an iPhone at the same time, even if the latter is in a hefty case.
Normally $79.99, Mashable readers can snag this stand for only $59.99 — a 24% savings.
Oakywood’s headphone stand is equally elegant in a premium walnut or oak finish with a support rod made from solid steel. Compatible with headphones of all sizes, its hand-polished, geometric base makes it look more like a piece of art than an organizational tool.
Oakywood typically sells its headphone stand for $69, but you can pick one up today for just $42 — a 39% discount.
This funky iPhone charging dock looks just like Oakywood’s geometric headphone stand, only smaller. It’s also made from organic wood (take your pick from walnut or oak), and features micro-suction tape technology with a cable locking system that makes it easy to use your phone while it gets juiced up.
Valued at $59, this dock is on sale for a limited time for only $36 — a savings of 38%.
Confession time: We really like Oakywood’s products. (Oh, you hadn’t noticed?) We *especially* like Oakywood’s iPhone dock organizer, which takes the same charging and stability technology on its standard iPhone dock (above) and conveniently adds it to a solid wood tray. That way, you’ve got somewhere to stash your keys, watches, and coins while your smartphone does its thing.
Get an Oakywood iPhone dock organizer for a mere $51 — 35% off its usual retail price of $79.
Time to switch it up a bit: If your desktop setup could use some extra love, Monitormate’s minimalistic ProBASE C Monitor Stand with built-in charging ports and stations offers a one-two punch of energizing and organizing. It’s surprisingly strong, capable of supporting either a laptop or a computer monitor, and features a secret drawer where you can stash flash drives, external HDDs, memory cards, stationery, and other odds and ends.
Typically $139, you can score a ProBASE stand in either silver or space gray for just $119.99 — a 13% savings.
That iPhone X you splurged on deserves a stand that matches it in both quality and style. We’re partial to the sleek and supportive StandONE, also by Monitormate, which features a unibody stainless steel design with a modern mirror-polished finish.
A $29 value, you can pick up a StandONE now for just $22.99 — a 20% markdown.
