A Wearable Phone Leash from Vybe

November 1, 2013 By Dan Rosenbaum

Vybe - Accessories - Bands

It’s a simple idea. You don’t always want your phone next to your body. You don’t necessarily want it to sound off when it rings, but you don’t want to miss calls or texts.

Vybe is a small module plus wristband that looks quite a lot like a FitBit Flex. It vibrates when you get a call or a text. If you wander more than 50 feet from your phone, it vibrates a lot until you’re back in range.

They’re taking preorders, starting at $39. Shipping is expected this winter sometime.
