iPod XS proves small is sexy

Whoever said big is beautiful is wrong. The iPod XS proves it, the coin-sized audio player looking cooler than the nano despite being less than half the size. In fact it’s so small it’ll fit just about anywhere, comparable to a 10p piece albeit twice as thick. Unfortunately that means it’s just as easy to lose in a pocketful of change!
But before you get too excited and rush down to your nearest Apple store, the iPod XS is just a concept idea from the clever people over at Yanko Design. Shame, because we’d splash out on one straight away. Admittedly the design is a flawed – the screen is on the opposite side of the player to the controls, so you can skip tracks and look at what’s playing at the same time – but it’s still a stroke of design genius.
