The summer heat is often unbearable. When mercury is close to 40 degrees it is difficult to concentrate and have energy. Some drawbacks against which Sony seeks to fight with its new invention. A strange device that has just gone on sale: a portable air conditioner to carry inside the clothes that they have baptized as Sony Reon Pocket .

With dimensions similar to a tobacco package (11.6 x 5.4 x 2 cm) this portable air conditioner is made up of a small fan and a battery that seek to dissipate heat from our bodies.

This miniature air conditioner is designed to be operated independently or connected to a mobile phone . For this it has a Bluetooth connectivity system. Also, from Sony they have developed an application for IOS and Android that allows you to select your settings more precisely.

Four modes of use

The portable air conditioner has four operating modes:

Sale price

One of the main drawbacks of the Sony Reon Pocket is thinking about where and how to place it without constantly falling out when we are living normal lives.

Sony brings its own idea with the air conditioner. The device comes with a special shirt that has a pocket on the upper back to place the device . In addition, Sony also sells the shirts with the pocket on the back separately.

In this sense, the user depends on buying the T-shirts from Sony to have an appropriate way to place the portable air conditioner. Otherwise, you will have to devise a device yourself with which to use it on any article of clothing.

One of the most criticized aspects by users who have already bought it is the issue of the battery. It lasts for around 4 hours . A time that many feel insufficient to spend the hottest hours of the day in environments that are not properly heated .

Another of the most common complaints is sound . Some users argue that the fan run run is almost imperceptible when there is background noise. However, they lament that in quiet environments the ringing can be somewhat annoying .

The portable air conditioner can be purchased from Sony's online store for a price of 13,000 yen (107 euros). It is also available on the Japanese version of Amazon, where it has an average rating of three stars out of five. If the shirts with pocket are bought separately, the price of each unit is 18 euros. They are available in white and cream.

Also suitable for winter

However, Sony Reon Pocket is not useful only for the hottest months of the year. It can also be used in winter, since it is also capable of helping to raise the body temperature of users .
