The iPhone 15 just guaranteed the success of Qi2

Despite Apple’s efforts to bury it, Qi2 will overtake MagSafe

It's hard to deny the clear divide in selection and quality between iPhone accessories and the options we have in the Android ecosystem. We get a fraction of the phone case variety in both function and fashion, though Samsung and Google's flagships have made some headway there in the last four years. Nearly all of the best PPS chargers and power banks are optimized for iPhone first, and wireless chargers for Android phones have been such a hot mess that I've developed mental ticks around researching and writing about them.

The Samsung Galaxy S23+ is the Goldilocks of the S23 family, a happy middle point between the underwhelming S23 and the very pricey S23 Ultra. While the improvements over the previous model are iterative at best, it's faster, boasts more storage space, packs a bigger battery than the previous generation, and is a great compromise between its two S23 siblings.

Traveling with multiple devices can be somewhat of a pain these days. It means you're packing at least one charger for your phone, probably a second for your tablet or laptop, and a power bank for topping up while on the move. But what if I told you that you could replace all of these accessories with a single charger? Meet the Anker 733 Power Bank. It's a 2-in-1 hybrid charger that features both a 65W wall adapter and a 10K power bank, and right now it's 30% off for Amazon Prime members.

Over the years, cheap smartphones have continued to get better and better. We see this with OnePlus’s Nord N30, which, although it isn’t so much of an upgrade from the Nord N20, offers a relatively close to flagship-level experience.

As Will noted in his review, the Galaxy S23 Ultra is likely more phone than you'll ever need, and that's exactly what makes it such a remarkable flagship. Returning to the latest iteration is the excellent 120Hz, 6.8-inch AMOLED display (including support for HDR10+ and a startlingly bright 1,750 nits), now augmented by improved battery life and a suite of excellent cameras.

If you own a top-tier Galaxy S23 Ultra, you'll be happy to know that it's one of the most durable smartphones you can buy. Although strong enough to endure minor bumps, it's still vulnerable to harsher impacts, especially with that curved screen. Therefore, providing additional protection with a phone case is vital — a fantastic case will keep your flagship safe from damage and in great condition for a long time.

Not all chargers are made the same. Some chargers aren’t as fast as they need to be, and with Android smartphones and tablets to charge, time is of the essence. One of the great things about shopping for a charger is that there are many Android chargers you can grab, but if you want one from Anker, this 100W wall charger is only $27.

Android users have been left without adequate options for compact, reliable, and magnetic charging solutions since Apple introduced MagSafe with the iPhone 12. While it's not currently feasible to attach any MagSafe accessory directly to high-end Android phones, there are still a few MagSafe-compatible cases you can buy, if you want to take advantage of the benefits of magnetism on your Galaxy Z Flip 5.

Fitness trackers have become an integral part of everyday life, and smart rings are the latest addition. The first one to emerge was McLear's RingPay in 2013. Since then, the rings have struggled to go mainstream because of technological constraints and competition with larger wearables. Many critics consider them to be downsized versions of smartwatches that don't offer anything groundbreaking. With Apple, Samsung, and other tech giants locking into their potential, there may still be time for smart rings to gain popularity.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 doesn't reinvent the wheel, nor does it need to, as foldable phones remain pretty shallow in an increasingly competitive market. That said, the Z Fold 5 is a pretty amazing device. However, if you're a first-time purchaser, you may be a bit confused concerning case options, hinges, and how/where the S Pen fits when your phone is covered in protective cladding.

Unless your smartphone's battery can last over a day without needing a top-up (Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, anyone?) or you can go a day without checking your phone much (are you human?), then you most likely tote around a portable battery when you're out and about. But the thing with most of them, including the best power banks across the board, is they are either colossal or heavier than a brick. They cause pocket bulge — if you can even slip them in your pocket at all — or require a separate bag, defeating the purpose of being truly portable. If you want a portable battery that you can actually hold with one hand, this AINOPE portable charger fits the bill, clocking in at less than four inches. Right now, you can get it for just $26 with a clipped coupon.

Where Android smartwatches are concerned, the Galaxy Watch 5 and Watch 5 Pro are hard to beat. Despite all the glowing reviews of the watches themselves, however, the included straps tend to be a little divisive. Luckily, as is the case for most of Samsung's releases, a flourishing aftermarket has sprung up around the smartwatch offerings; there's a dizzying array of 3rd party bands available to suit nearly any budget or aesthetic.

You don't have to buy a pricy Android flagship to get a decent phone. Like other budget smartphones, the Pixel 6a has shown us the beauty of affordable. Though it may not have all the bells and whistles, the Pixel 6a is still a great option that’s so well crafted that it can take on pricier alternatives in most performance contests. And as you’d expect, that makes it one of the best budget Android phones. Nevertheless, a cheap device will always have some tacky, less-than-perfect components, and the Pixel 6a’s frail Gorilla Glass 3 screen is one of them. Fortunately, with an excellent screen protector, you can adequately reinforce your display and shield it from harm.
