Stylophone returns after years away
The Stylophone Mini synthesizer is back in production after leaving the market years ago. The original Mini launched in two thousand ten but was discontinued. The new version is credit card sized with a keychain loop.
Three colors and a thirty dollar price
The refreshed Stylophone Mini comes in three colors including pink, which is brand new. It costs just thirty dollars and includes a stylus for playing, built-in speakers and the same number of keys as the full-sized version.
A simple instrument with legendary history
The Stylophone has been around since the nineteen sixties and inspired David Bowie, who wrote much of Space Oddity on one. The company's CEO said in the age of AI, we wanted to make something simple, fun and real. It is available now.
