We love our smartphones and tablets, but one problem with them is that we have to recharge them often, and if you're not a fan of wall outlets, you might be interested in this unique portable battery pack.

Power Pillow is according to its creators "word's first pillow that recharges smart devices", but this device is just an ordinary portable battery pack with unusual housing. There are several designs available to choose from, but every of these pillows comes with a slot that is used to store the battery pack. You can even remove the battery pack, and use the pillow, or you can relax and at the same time recharge your tablet or smartphone. We have to mention that full Power Pillow charging system comes with two 12000mAh battery packs, one soft battery housing, one cable wallet and two micro-USB charging cables. There are also other more affordable models available as well.
