Turn your smartphone into a playable wind instrument with this USB-C mouthpiece


Redefining what it means to play on your phone.

An Italian startup called Artinoise has created an unusual USB-C accessory for mobile devices that turns them into playable musical instruments. Those backing the campaign early can preorder a Zefiro for €22 (about $24), while full retail pricing is expected to be €42 (around $45), with shipping estimated to start in February 2025. When connected to a device with a USB-C extension cable, it allows hands-free Zefiro use so a performer can play another instrument, like a guitar or piano, at the same time.
