8BitDo just revealed a new gamepad at CES and it's a doozy. The Ultimate 3E Controller for XBox is a modular marvel that should suit just about any configuration preference. That's because many elements are swappable. There are two different button modules, each with a different feel when pressing down. There are several joystick options, including standard, tall and thick-neck designs. The controller even ships with a pair of D-pad options. One is intended for precision and the other for "smooth, directional rolls."
If you want a wireless charger for your iPhone and prefer to stick with Apple, Amazon has a sale that may pique your interest. The retailer is selling the one meter Apple Magsafe charger for $30, saving you $10 off the regular price, while also selling the two meter model for $40 ($10 off). Get a $10 discount on Apple's Magsafe charger in one or two meter sizes.
Dreame built its name on robot vacuums and smart cleaning stations, but its newest release does not clean your floors at all. Dreame's Air Power 17 arrives as a magnetic portable power bank with a surprisingly polished feel, pairing an aluminum frame with AG glass and a footprint barely larger than a bank card. It clicks into place on an iPhone 17 or any Qi2 compatible phone, then quietly delivers up to 15 watts wirelessly or 20 watts over USB-C.
SPOT ON is a wireless charger and ambient lamp concept designed around a bow-and-target motif. The charging pad is a circular target that snaps magnetically to the front of a tilted cylindrical lamp body. You can dock the pad to use it as a stand charger, or pull it off and lay it flat as a separate wireless pad while the lamp continues to glow in the background.
If you didn't get around to reading more this year, now's a great time to start. That's because Amazon is selling the latest Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition in like-new condition for $126.99 ($53 off), which matches the e-reader's best price to date. If you haven't purchased a refurbished product from Amazon before, know that each refurb model is inspected, cleaned, and tested to ensure it's fully functional; they also come with the same one-year limited warranty as new products.
Peak Design Moto Charging Mount: I've used a variety of phone mounts over the years and each one has its pros and cons, but only one has everything you need. The Peak Design mount is easy to use while still having a great locking mechanism for rough, off-road riding. The charging is fast without needing to plug in a cord, and I can mount it almost anywhere on my bike.
Too many USB-A ports when you need USB-C. No wireless charging. Or it has wireless charging but not enough wired ports. You're stuck buying what manufacturers think you need, not what you actually need. TobenOne flips that script entirely. It's a modular magnetic charging hub you build yourself. Snap on the modules you want, skip the ones you don't. Need more USB-C? Add a module. Upgrade your setup later? Swap it out. It's your desk, your devices, your rules.
Living a chaotic life with ADD, I desperately needed control of my life - everything to do, yet nothing got done. In my search on Amazon for the perfect planner, I kept coming back to this one. Boy, was I glad to have made that choice. I was instantly impressed by the sturdy cover, metal-covered corners, and the elastic band that held the planner together. I saw the pictures ahead of time, and they were true.
The imaging capabilities of many smartphones may now rival dedicated cameras, but their ergonomics do not. Belkin's PowerGrip solves that with a DSLR-style grip on one end giving you a secure way to hold your smartphone while taking pictures, even with your phone in portrait mode. The PowerGrip also has its own shutter button, positioned on the top edge of the grip so it sits beneath your finger, that snaps images using a Bluetooth connection to your phone.
The upcoming iQOO 15 is expected to launch at some point this month, and the brand has recently confirmed a few more of its specs. First of all, the iQOO 15 will have wireless charging, unlike its predecessors. This was long rumored to arrive in the next generation, but it's great to finally have official confirmation as well. Next up, the phone comes with IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance, along with a new generation ultrasonic fingerprint sensor that should be even faster
You've been doing it for years with your phone. You walk into your home, drop it on a little pad by your keys, and it just starts charging. No fumbling with a frayed cable in the dark, no wrestling with a plug that only fits one way. It's a tiny, elegant convenience that has become second nature. Now, imagine that same seamless experience for the two-ton electric vehicle sitting in your garage. You pull in, park, and walk away. That's it. The car is charging.
It's not an entirely new idea given Nomad's Universal Cable from earlier this year can charge an Apple Watch and an additional device at the same time, but Zens' new Pro 2 and Pro 3 USB-C cables offer additional functionality and some welcome future-proofing as chargers become more powerful. The cheaper of the two is the €49.99 (around $58) Pro 2 USB-C charging cable that includes an inline Qi2 charging puck that can wirelessly charge a smartphone or earbuds at up to 15W speeds.
The most tangible hardware addition across the lineup, in fact, is completely invisible: a set of magnets beneath the phones' back panels. With the new Pixelsnap system, Google is the first major Android manufacturer to finally catch up to Apple's MagSafe. Apple launched its magnetic wireless charging system on the iPhone 12 range in 2020, and it's quietly become one of the best things about using an iPhone.
The Powerab travel adapter utilizes 5th Generation GaN technology to deliver 140W of power in a compact form, enhancing portability and efficiency.
