Have you ever wished you could charge your Android phone with the same kind of magnetic power connector used in Apple’s MacBooks? If so, then one developer at DroidBuild has created a new smartphone case that might pique your curiosity. The developer created the new case by modding a spare MagSafe power connection lying around and attaching it to a 3D printed ABS faceplate. The result is a case that fits perfectly on his Galaxy Note II and that lets him charge the device just as he’d charge a MacBook Air. While this is obviously just a prototype and won’t be going on sale anytime soon, it’s still a really cool concept that anyone who has access to a spare MagSafe and a 3D printer might consider trying themselves. A picture of the case follows below.
