Sonos, known for his range of high-end speakers, considered developing a speaker who would connect to the iPhone via Magsafe, reports The edge.

Magsafe battery on iPhone
Engineers from the company prototyped a small, iPhone-compatible speaker that would be attached directly to the device, with music that a Bluetooth connection would play. According to The edgeThe prototype speaker had a square shape and it was comparable to the appearance of Apple’s now disconted Magsafe battery, but thicker.

Some employees thought that the speaker product would resonate with Gen Z and expected it to deliver a good sound, regardless of the compact size. However, Sonos has deleted the project for “technical limitations, questionable attraction and a limited target market.”

Sonos has worked to expand his product setup. Last year, Sonos introduced the headphones of Sonos Ace who compete with high-end headphones such as the AirPods Max, and later this year it is rumor that it is planning to introduce a set-top box that is comparable to the Apple TV.
