So here we are talking about a pure analog products intended to operate on the same principle as tutgrammofonen from the beginning of the 1900s.

The phone plugged into a spacious opening with two hole in the bottom – one for each mini speaker in the bottom of the mobile phone. The manufacturer stated that the funnel works with iPhone 4.5 and 6.

Suitable for all under six inches

It excludes such as iPhone 6 Plus and Huawei Mate 7. We had no trouble getting a Nexus 5 and Samsung Galaxy S5 to fit into. Thus we can well affirm that all phones have speakers at the bottom and no larger than five inches will fit.

Urania looks undeniably lovely and timeless out where it stands on the table, even with an anything but timeless iPhone 5S on top.
