This AirPods case is better than all other AirPods cases, because it’s also a fidget spinner

Remember fidget spinners? They were a sensation in both classrooms and grown-adult-occupied offices across the world in 2017, but you don’t see many people spinning these days. That could all be about to change, though, if the ZenPod catches on. Billed as ‘the first ever spinning case for your AirPods’, a claim nobody is likely to contest, the leather-wrapped ZenPod is built around two high-precision bearings that keep it spinning for long periods of time. Will it be as satisfying to play with as Apple’s existing AirPods case, which features one of the most addictively clickable lids in history? You’ll have to cough up $40 (including shipping to the UK) to find out.

About

I'm fascinated by all things tech, but if you were going to leave me on a desert island, I'd probably ask for my Nintendo Switch, a drone, and a pair of noise-cancelling cans to block out the relentless seagull racket. When I'm not on Stuff duty you'll probably find me subscribing to too many podcasts, playing too many video games, or telling anyone who will listen that Harry Kane is never going to leave Spurs.
