Some of you may not know this, but during a brief period from summer 2021 to fall 2023 – Apple made a battery bank. Of course, since it’s Apple, it was MagSafe. This MagSafe battery pack had a number of interesting features and quirks, and ultimately it only stuck around for two years. However, thanks to an interesting new Apple trend, I think it’s plausible that it comes back – but not as an Apple product. MagSafe battery history Apple’s MagSafe battery pack lived a short life.

Zens recently sent over their Quattro Charger Pro 4 to try after Apple started selling it, and it’s already become a family favorite.

MagSafe grips are hardly the only type of phone grips available. In fact, there are four main other types of grips you can buy. Cases with attached grips. These are cases with a grip attached to the back. You get a strong and durable grip that will never fall off, but the trade-off is a thicker phone, and these cases typically are incompatible with wireless charging and may not work with other MagSafe accessories.

Wireless charging is less efficient than plugging in a wire, but it’s certainly convenient — especially when you add magnets. Most people who have an iPhone 12 or later (except the 16E) and want a magnetic charger should get a Qi2 charger. Any Qi2-certified charger will charge a MagSafe iPhone up to 15W — just as fast as MagSafe on any phone but the 25W-capable iPhone 16. Qi2 chargers are also less expensive than MagSafe-certified ones, and there are many more options. And unlike MagSafe, Qi2 is

The move to automate tasks previously done by humans comes as DOGE continues its purge of the federal workforce. GSAi is meant to support “general” tasks, similar to commercial tools like ChatGPT or Anthropic’s Claude. It is tailored in a way that makes it safe for government use, a GSA worker tells WIRED.
