Elevation Lab has designed the what is likely the best iPhone dock you've ever seen. The Elevation Dock was unveiled as a Kickstarter project seeking $75,000 in funding. In only two days, the dock has far surpassed its goal raising over $200,000 already.

Simple to use, quick undocking, and it works with or without a case. We didn't stop there - It's beautifully precision machined from solid aluminum and it comes in a gorgeous set of surface finishes, setting a new bar for quality and something that looks really good on your desk. It complements the high-level craftsmanship of the iPhone like no other.

A $59 pledge will get you an Elevation Dock with an estimated delivery date of April 2012. These will later retail for $90.

A $79 pledge will get you an Elevation Dock+ which adds shielded Line Level audio out plus USB power adapter. These will later retail for $120.

Take a look at the video below for more information on the dock...

I'm surprised those "But the hungry people in Africa" iClarified clients have started posting yet.

An answer to an over exaggerated "problem". What's wrong with using a cable? It's universal and works for my iPad and iPhone.

If you think a cable is a great solution, then clearly this product isn't targeted at you. You're, of course, most welcome to keep using a cable, but I for one hate loose cables. So I think it's a great idea!

Hmmm ... #FirstWorldProblems. I just use a docking cable to charge and both hands to disconnect. Everything else I do wirelessly or on headphones. My first reaction is wanting to parody the video and Gruber. A dock adds complexity to the iDevice. I want simplification - which I have found by NOT using a dock in the first place. Simple.

Well... Why is it the best iphone dock we've ever seen? What is so special about it? I don't think it is that special... and the price? Come on...

It will fail just like those other expensive docks. Pffft retail for 90 and 120? I rather keep a apple dock.

Simply awesome & looks good as well

bob53366 - December 15, 2011 at 4:32am

Awesome! I'd buy one! I hate that the regular dock doesn't let go when I grab my iPhone!

Just cut the little hooks off of the side of the dock plug. slides in and out with one hand without a issue ... Doesn't lift off the table like video .. Elevation dock looks nice but easy to make one similar for a lot cheaper

Interesting tip! I'll have to try that. Thanks! Still it would be cool with an aluminum dock, wouldn't it? :)
