My favorite USB-C accessory of all time got a magnetic upgrade - it's spoiled me ever since

ZDNET's key takeaways The magnetic USB-C connector now supports a 180-degree swivel, and it's only $12 at Amazon. It can pump out as much as 240W of power. I just wish it was suitable for data transferring or powering monitors. $15.99 at Amazon These handy 240W USB-C magnetic adapters are on sale for just $12 (with the added coupon) for one on Amazon. A hill I'm always willing to fight on -- and maybe even die on -- is that the magnetic breakaway USB-C connector is one of the best USB access

When is the best time to book your flight? Google just revealed its airfare secrets

zdnet.com Chris Bayer 2026-03-08 13:00:13

Alexander Spatari/Getty Images The last time I booked a vacation flight, I literally spent over an hour finding the cheapest ticket to Hawaii with two criteria in mind: that it wasn't a red-eye flight, and it only had one layover. At least one layover was to be expected (at LAX) because Kentucky is a long way from the Aloha State. I could've saved some time, though -- and money -- had I known what Google's recent report revealed. Also: 7 gadgets I recommend for travel as a digital nomad What

Google Pixel 10a wishlist: These are the 5 upgrades I want to see

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-07 16:30:34

Ryan Haines / Android Authority Over the last few years, we’ve gotten used to a pretty reliable formula for Pixel launches. Every fall, Google rolls out its flagships, followed by the mid-range Pixel A launch a few months later in the spring. Usually, that mid-ranger takes most of its cues (and all of its internals) from the flagships, giving us a great chance to recommend the full Pixel experience without the full Pixel price. This year, though, the Pixel 9a tried something new. It picked up
