Forgive us for making a sweeping assumption, but we're going to take a stab and say your car's phone-charging situation could use a massive upgrade. Maybe your USB ports are located in that impossible to reach compartment behind the shifter, or your overly long cord is constantly getting in the way. Any shortcomings you might be dealing with are instantly fixable for a tiny price while Amazon is running this limited-time $25 deal on the 75W Anker Nano Car Charger.

While it's taking over for your alarm clock, the Anker MagGo is also bringing fast charging to your iPhone and your AirPods, so they're both fully loaded when you wake up. The two built-in LED lights let you see that each device is charging, and charging quickly: An iPhone 15 Pro will go from dead to 25% charged in just 21 minutes on the Anker MagGo, nearly half the time a 7.5W charger takes.

Just one week after EcoFlow launched the fastest 99Wh power bank yet, Anker is firing back at IFA 2025 with a souped-up portable battery of its own. Anker's Prime Power Bank (26k, 300W) supports 250W of input, or up to 300W of output to charge multiple devices simultaneously, making it a decent runner-up. It arrives alongside a revamped Prime series of devices that includes a Qi2 25W charging station, a small but powerful GaN wall charger, and a 14-in-1 docking station that supports up to three displays.

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.

Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra may have a huge camera island, according to the latest rumor from a few hours ago, but unfortunately the same cannot be said about its battery. While there have been a few rumors hoping for at least a 10% increase in capacity from the S25 Ultra's 5,000 mAh to 5,500 mAh, other rumors shot down the idea and they were apparently right.

The Jimmy Choo special edition features a subtle crystal shimmer, evoking "crushed stardust scattered across a deep blue sea." The phone's exterior features a matte finish and has a very subtle texture that you can feel when running your nails over it. The phone has a matching UI theme. The Prof.Jimmy Choo Yeang Keat OBE special edition finish Underneath all the shimmering, the phone itself is almost as high-tech as can be.

The Twelve South PowerBug is a minimalist wireless charger that plugs directly into a wall outlet and allows for magnetic attachment of phones, enabling cable-free charging.

Ken Pillonel's latest project aims to fight planned obsolescence by giving people one less reason to replace their old iPhones, and builds on his viral mod from 2021 by improving support for fast charging. "This time, I'm turning that one-off DIY mod into a real product you can own," Pillonel said in the description of his latest YouTube video. "This isn't just a hack anymore; it's the biggest project I've ever done."

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 can knock out a 10-80% fast-charging session in about 20 minutes, quicker than most high-end luxury cars can manage.

Baseus is introducing its Enercore line of chargers and power banks globally, equipped with retractable USB-C cables, up to 100W charging speeds, and 20,000mAh capacities.
