Wireless charging is not for all but for me at home it is an in my vehicles and plus the fact they save your charge port and cables they are an option you should consider, Qi charging however is not the fastest in the world in most instances but does the job and to bring it to the car is a good idea, Yes we do have some vehicles now that have wireless charging pads built in but the same theory still applies.
This charger can offer several levels of charging device dependent and works on several devices I have test and is one of the faster ones,this one two also sports some lights not that you will see them when there is a phone in the holder but looks nice, I am not a huge fan of vented phone holders yet this one seems robust and clips on with a clip on the rear, many I have used in the past have just broke the vent or broke full stop,this one also offers you a good deal of movement to get it fixed in the right position that suits you best or even your passenger can place their compatible phone in it, the unit holds the device quite well and secure and yet has to loose my phone going over bumps, It will also charge with most cases on your device so be sure to check out the thickness level and materials used if you sport a case on your mobile phone,check out the video below for more..

Still suffering from battery anxiety?? Yes many of us are but there are affordable solutions at hand in the form of portable powerbanks which come in all shapes and sizes and of course prices. Powebanks come in some huge formats and portable options too with some neat tricks on offer too on th emore expensive ones but today we have two portable ones that will not break the bank and both of these can be picked up for around 25 euro.
They are the typical industry look but on the slim side yet offer a bit more than the single output offerings. With the 104000 mAh option you can charge up to 3 devices at once or one device several times depending on its battery capacity but the thing is here the portability factor and sharing factor so the like of this is ideal for travel,camping and more even for just one person use especially if you carry more than one device you can charge your phone and true wireless earbuds for example.
This device offers an LED display too giving the power status which is handy and keeps you in check of its own status so you can recharge when required. Mmost people think powerbanks are for just mobile phones,they are not you can charge any peripheral or tablet and more so there is great diversity there. These also offer faster charging than the typical dirt we see in local shops or euro stores.
The smaller of the two though has some other ideas with an in built torch and once again the option to charge more than one device on the go which again is ideal and this one is more rounded than its sister and might be better for portablility but having said that both are really portable and descrete looking but do the job they intend to do and give you a little more value for your money even though they have that industrial design look but who cares it is power at hand on the go and can serve more than one device and one person..
Alarm clocks come in all shapes and sizes but with tech changing as it is today we should expect some more and here is what we get with the Athena alarm clock from Groov-e. Missing a radio though…. Would have been nice but it is what it is but still it is a really nice piece of kit to have in your bedroom and ideal if you have a phone that has wireless charging built in.
Giving you a retro look to it is a simplistic clock with an alarm too and a dim mode for the clock face itself and the light underneath which is also ideal for some light in your personal space beside your bed on your locker. It is simple to set up with controls on the underside and also a back up battery should you need to move it or a powercut it will revert to the current time and date etc which is hand, I have had some alarm clocks in my day when the power or battery goes you have to set up again but not the case here.
Wireless charging comes in at 5W which is the low end of the scale but will charge your device overnight and no cables needed, Wireless charging has its benefits no matter the speed, it saves your port and cable and in this instance another plug so its a win if you have got on board the wireless charging game, Having said that there is not many phones out there with it and any that is out there is more expensive but there is still enough out there to make use of this timepiece should you wish to look for something new for the bedroom. And for the snooze button fans there is a touch to snooze area on top, Yes I am one of those…

The charger does what is stated as a fast charger using power delivery technology. The charger and cable are sturdy in quality. The cable stood out in the feel and strength given the impression it will not deteriorate as can happen with inferior brands.

This is more common sense than myth, but it’s worth noting modern smartphones are designed to optimise foreground “tasks” while others harmlessly float in the background. From 5G conspiracy theories to radiation poisoning, OnBuy’s mobile phone departmentconducted a survey to find out the mobile phone myths Brits believe the most and asked us to share it.
When it comes to mobile phone batteries, OnBuy found the number one thing Brits believe is: apps running in the background use up battery. In fact, 87% of those surveyed believe this is true.
While this is more common sense than myth, it’s worth remembering modern smartphones are designed to optimise foreground “tasks” while others harmlessly float in the background.
Another common belief is overcharging a phone damages the battery (39%) or charging your phone overnight is bad for it (34%).
However, contrary to popular belief, modern smartphones contain chips to prevent charge overload. If your phone uses a lithium-ion battery, the current stops once its fully charged.
