The Rocki is a music streaming device that lets users listen to music from their smartphones on their big speakers without having to put their phone down.

The gadget works by hooking up directly to users’ speakers through an auxiliary or RCA cable. Users then connect the device to the same Wi-Fi network as their smartphone so that they can send music over the network and onto the Rocki.

The Rocki is a tiny little gadget that fits in the palm of the hand. It comes in seven skin colors: orange, purple, pink, red, yellow, black and green.
