cell mate Worst Product Ever? Cell Mate Hands Free Cellphone Holder
Yes this is an actual product being shown at CES this year. It’s the Cell Mate hands free cell phone holder. It’s basically just a giant headband clip that attaches to your phone and goes over your head. The advantage is that you don’t have to synch up or charge up a bluetooth earpiece. The disadvantage is that it’s totally ridiculous looking and it doesn’t look very comfortable. Even the name is bad- “cell-mate”… I’ve watched too many prison movies to get a good feeling about that one.

The public aesthetics perception of this product is poor! However, there is a market for this product. First, this product can only be worn around the house because the general public is not ready to accept this look. Something has to change in the publics mind before mass appeal can be won. Second, three good target markets for this product are:

1) People who don’t like bluetooth ear devices or cannot wear these devices because of ear irritations or other problems.

2) People who don’t like to use the speaker-phone feature on their cell phone that can be attach to their wrist with the use of a special holder called “The CellBand”

3) Lifecasters. People who record every moment of their life. This group of people might use the product to hold recorders and other small devices.

Before we condemn this product we should consider that it can have a useful purpose for those who need it. Tom Cruse says it best, “Who’s to say”
