With enough space to hold five cards (the most on this list), it indeed resembles a classic wallet and not just a cardholder.

When evaluating MagSafe wallets, I always look for easy and seamless access to my NJ Transit card, which I need to grab and put away quickly.

But for someone on the go more often (or someone who needs less card capacity), this is a winner.

But when you consider that 1.5 billion of them, made of plastic, are tossed into the trash every year and end up in landfills, you may change your mind. In fact, 80% of the total amount of plastic ever produced lies in landfills today, waiting patiently to disintegrate over 1,000 years. \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis is why it's exciting to see innovative case companies use unique materials and processes that allow them to tread lightly on the Earth. Some employ linseed plants, others flax or bamboo, and a few even use recycled plastic derived from CDs, fishing nets, and PET bottles. You also can find some mini works of art among the products. \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EOne reason these companies stand above their peers is that they're being recognized by the most respected stewards of the land -- such as B Corp, Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), Carbon Neutral, and Cradle to Cradle, among others. Endorsements from these organizations are supremely tough to get, but if you're able to, they give your brand instant credibility. \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThese watchdogs track, for example, whether the bamboo used in a phone case came from an endangered animal habitat or whether children were employed to harvest it -- circumstances the average consumer might would never know. With the auspices of an FSC badge -- or tips from our list -- buyers can sleep better knowing they've helped make Earth a little greener. \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAlso: \u003C\u002Fstrong\u003E\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zdnet.com\u002Fhome-and-office\u002Fsustainability\u002Fbest-green-phone\u002F\" target=\"_blank\"\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EThe best green phones: Sustainable and eco-friendly smartphones\u003C\u002Fstrong\u003E\u003C\u002Fa\u003E \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"cnetlisticle\" data-id=\"7fc0e831-cbcd-4d6d-9b4f-74b6fcf49d1e\" data-edition=\"us\" data-description=\"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETech specs\u003C\u002Fstrong\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cul\u003E\u003Cli\u003ECompostable\u003C\u002Fli\u003E\u003Cli\u003EMade entirely from waste linseed plants\u003C\u002Fli\u003E\u003Cli\u003ECover printed with water-based inks\u003C\u002Fli\u003E\u003C\u002Ful\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBased in Sweden, A Good Company checks off all of the boxes that make it the leader on this list.

If you're someone who lives or works in an environment where your phone is often at risk of being damaged, a more protective case might be a better option. It's also important to take your budget into account — in more ways than one.

Plus, when you're ready to switch the design, or when your PopSocket has reached the end of its life, you can recycle it through the TerraCycle® program.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-hed=\"PopSocket Custom Grip\" data-superlative=\"Best PopSocket overall\" data-imagegroup=\"{"alt":"placeholder-product-image-for-best-lists.jpg","caption":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E","credits":"","imageData":{"id":"c9b655a6-c800-4408-97ad-4bbbe63cd523","title":"PopSocket Custom Grip","filename":"popsocket-custom-grip.jpg","path":"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zdnet.com\u002Fa\u002Fimg\u002F2022\u002F11\u002F10\u002Fc9b655a6-c800-4408-97ad-4bbbe63cd523\u002Fpopsocket-custom-grip.jpg","caption":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E","size":216799,"width":1296,"height":729,"dateCreated":{"date":"2022-11-10 15:18:29","timezone":"UTC","timezone_type":3},"dateUpdated":{"date":"2022-11-10 15:18:45","timezone":"UTC","timezone_type":3},"needsModeration":false,"mimeType":"image\u002Fjpeg","deleted":false,"credits":null,"alt":"Image of a PopSocket on an iPhone with a lime green background.","restricted":false,"startDate":null,"endDate":null,"preferred":false,"watermark":false,"doNotCrop":false,"doNotResize":false,"primaryCollection":null,"vanityUrl":null,"notes":null,"crop":null,"cropGravity":0,"preservedRegion":null,"isNew":false,"keywords":[],"primeColor":null,"hasWarning":false,"typeName":"content_image"},"uuid":"c9b655a6-c800-4408-97ad-4bbbe63cd523","imageAltText":"placeholder-product-image-for-best-lists.jpg","imageCaption":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E","imageCredit":"","imageDoNotCrop":false,"imageDoNotResize":false,"imageWatermark":false,"imageFilename":"popsocket-custom-grip.jpg","imageDateCreated":"2022\u002F11\u002F10","imageWidth":1296,"imageHeight":729,"imageParallax":"","imageCrop":"","imageEnlarge":false}\" data-overridecaption=\"\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-merchantoffers=\"[{"useMonetization":true,"monetizedUrl":"https:\u002F\u002Fclick.linksynergy.com\u002Fdeeplink?id=IokOf8qagZo&mid=43682&u1=subid_value&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.popsockets.com%2Fen-us%2Fp%2Fcustom-popgrip%2F101999-B0001.html","offerMerchant":"Popsockets","offerPrice":"20","monetizationStatus":"on","rawUrl":"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.popsockets.com\u002Fen-us\u002Fp\u002Fcustom-popgrip\u002F101999-B0001.html","url":"https:\u002F\u002Fclick.linksynergy.com\u002Fdeeplink?id=IokOf8qagZo&mid=43682&u1=subid_value&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.popsockets.com%2Fen-us%2Fp%2Fcustom-popgrip%2F101999-B0001.html"}]\" data-usepricing=\"true\" data-like=\"~ Compatible with various devices ~ Custom design ~ Inexpensive\" data-dislike=\"~ Not great with silicone ~ Does not stick well without an iPhone case\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"cnetlisticle\" data-id=\"78000d68-5c97-40b9-95c5-77631010cc05\" data-edition=\"us\" data-description=\"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EFeatures:&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fstrong\u003E10-foot drop protection | Built-in charger | Slim design\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe PopSocket Case with MagSafe takes your phone case to another level with a built-in phone charger you can use to both power and protect your phone.

But if you want less latency, the earbuds also come with a 2.4GHz USB-C adapter for a more reliable connection.

To get the most out of today's cell phone technology, cell phones require an array of peripherals to help them function to the best of their abilities.

It has everything you need to work, take notes, and attend virtual meetings. If this is you, strongly consider the S Pen Fold Edition -- either on its own or with the hard case. You'll be glad you did and might even wonder why you waited so long to do so. Indeed, there's something to be said about knowing you have everything you need packed neatly together in your back pocket. &nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIf you envision yourself routinely listening to music or watching movies on your Galaxy Z Fold 3, opt for the Samsung earbuds.

At first it was simply convenient to not need three USB cables all of the time. Then it changed and became a necessity. Once you have it you never have to worry about damaged USB ports\u002Finserts again, nor do you have to worry about whether your devices are actually charging when they're plugged in. The convenience is simply too great to pass up once you've experienced it.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAt the very least, of course, you need to protect your Galaxy Z Fold 3 with a proper case and screen protector. We recommend the ones above because of function and price. If you don't need the pen, consider the see-through case because the Galaxy Z Fold 3's construction is simply so unique that it shouldn't be hidden. If you're a workhorse and need the pen, opt for function over design because having somewhere to store your pen can be a godsend at times.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-hed=\"Which Z Fold 3 case or accessory is right for you?\" data-imagegroup=\"{}\" data-merchantoffers=\"[]\" data-usepricing=\"false\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"cnetlisticle\" data-id=\"865b737e-e76f-4848-9b2f-670367585f24\" data-edition=\"us\" data-description=\"\u003Cp\u003EIt's a versatile phone, and because of this, it is a little more fragile than what you may be used to.

When choosing a low-profile, minimalist case, check for adequate corner and hinge protection to reduce the chances of serious damage to your Flip 3. \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIf you have a history of shattered phones, a more rugged case may be necessary.

It takes all of the positives of old-school typewriters and adds in the positives of modern technology. For example, one plus of a typewriter is that all you can do on it is write. So too with the Freewrite. The device helps you get in the writing flow and focus on writing without being tempted by distractions, like notifications or web browsers.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESo how does it work? The emphasis is on drafting now and editing later, with drafting happening on the Freewrite. The Freewrite display features a small E Ink panel with a front light, so you can use it day or night without any eyestrain from blue light. The keyboard has box brown switches that are durable and clicky, just like the switches on a typewriter. Freewrite wants you to write more, and to write deeply, enjoying the distraction-free interface of the device.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E"At the core of Freewrite's design philosophy is an encouragement to move the writer forward," the "Why Freewrite?" section of the website writes. "Intentionally lacking editing capabilities, Freewrite drafting devices help writers write more, not better. In drafting, quantity trumps quality."\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EYou can produce a lot of words with a Freewrite -- the smart typewriter has an internal memory of up to 1 million words. When you're done with part of a draft, you can export your copy to the software of your choice to free up internal memory. The device connects to Wi-Fi to sync your words to the cloud. It has over 4&nbsp;weeks of running time if you use it for 30 minutes per day.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-hed=\"Freewrite Smart Typewriter\" data-superlative=\"Best distraction-free writing tool\" data-imagegroup=\"{"alt":"freewrite","caption":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E","credits":"Freewrite","imageData":{"id":"bacde588-0df5-44a0-8853-4a72e71826ae","title":"freewrite","filename":"freewrite.jpg","path":"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zdnet.com\u002Fa\u002Fimg\u002F2023\u002F04\u002F17\u002Fbacde588-0df5-44a0-8853-4a72e71826ae\u002Ffreewrite.jpg","caption":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E","size":124599,"width":1296,"height":720,"dateCreated":{"date":"2023-04-17 16:06:52","timezone":"UTC","timezone_type":3},"dateUpdated":{"date":"2023-04-17 16:06:58","timezone":"UTC","timezone_type":3},"needsModeration":false,"mimeType":"image\u002Fjpeg","deleted":false,"credits":"Freewrite","alt":"freewrite","restricted":false,"startDate":null,"endDate":null,"preferred":false,"watermark":false,"doNotCrop":false,"doNotResize":false,"primaryCollection":null,"vanityUrl":null,"notes":null,"crop":null,"cropGravity":0,"preservedRegion":null,"isNew":false,"keywords":[],"primeColor":null,"hasWarning":false,"typeName":"content_image"},"uuid":"bacde588-0df5-44a0-8853-4a72e71826ae","imageAltText":"freewrite","imageCaption":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E","imageCredit":"Freewrite","imageDoNotCrop":false,"imageDoNotResize":false,"imageWatermark":false,"imageFilename":"freewrite.jpg","imageDateCreated":"2023\u002F04\u002F17","imageWidth":1296,"imageHeight":720,"imageParallax":"","imageCrop":"","imageEnlarge":false}\" data-overridecaption=\"\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-overridecredit=\"Freewrite\" data-merchantoffers=\"[{"useMonetization":true,"monetizedUrl":"","offerMerchant":"Freewrite","offerPrice":"649","monetizationStatus":"on","rawUrl":"https:\u002F\u002Fgetfreewrite.com\u002Fproducts\u002Ffreewrite-smart-typewriter-3rd-gen","url":""},{"useMonetization":true,"monetizedUrl":"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.amazon.com\u002FFreewrite-Typewriter-Distraction-Free-Frontlit-Mechanical\u002Fdp\u002FB09V37Q6GP?tag=zdnet-buy-button-20","offerMerchant":"Amazon","offerPrice":"669","monetizationStatus":"on","rawUrl":"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.amazon.com\u002FFreewrite-Typewriter-Distraction-Free-Frontlit-Mechanical\u002Fdp\u002FB09V37Q6GP","url":"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.amazon.com\u002FFreewrite-Typewriter-Distraction-Free-Frontlit-Mechanical\u002Fdp\u002FB09V37Q6GP?tag=zdnet-buy-button-20"},{"useMonetization":true,"monetizedUrl":"","offerMerchant":"Retrospekt","offerPrice":"599","monetizationStatus":"on","rawUrl":"https:\u002F\u002Fretrospekt.com\u002Fproducts\u002Ffreewrite-smart-typewriter-1","url":""}]\" data-usepricing=\"true\" data-like=\"~Can write in 60+ languages with 85+ keyboard variants ~Longer battery life ~Sync to Google Drive, Dropbox, Evernote\" data-dislike=\"~Delay when between typing and when your text appears on the screen ~Limited functionality ~No spellcheck\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"cnetlisticle\" data-id=\"929fb174-5e47-4a27-86c4-4dd7e65dd816\" data-edition=\"us\" data-description=\"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EFeatures: Operating system\u003C\u002Fstrong\u003E: iOS, Android, MacOS, Windows 10 |&nbsp;\u003Cstrong\u003EConnectivity:\u003C\u002Fstrong\u003E&nbsp;Wired or wireless |&nbsp;\u003Cstrong\u003EPaired devices\u003C\u002Fstrong\u003E: Up to three |&nbsp;\u003Cstrong\u003EMaterial\u003C\u002Fstrong\u003E: PC+ABS, spray paint, protective lacquer, zinc alloy, aluminum&nbsp;|&nbsp;\u003Cstrong\u003ENumber of buttons\u003C\u002Fstrong\u003E: 78 |&nbsp;\u003Cstrong\u003EPrice\u003C\u002Fstrong\u003E: $170\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe Rymek Retro typewriter keyboard \u003Ca href="https:\u002F\u002Fwww.indiegogo.com\u002Fprojects\u002Frymek-retro-bluetooth-mechanical-keyboard#\u002F" target="_blank"\u003Ehad its start on Indiegogo\u003C\u002Fa\u003E, raising $382,983 from 4,606 backers in 2018.

The resistive screen isn't as smoothly responsive as that of a smartphone or tablet, and Kingston recommends using a stylus to tap out your password on-screen, but you can use a finger as long as you're careful about tapping the correct keys.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe sheer range of security features does mean that getting started can be a little complicated, and the IronKey drive is perhaps best suited to larger organisations with dedicated IT staff who can administer the drives and roll them out to staff.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESEE: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zdnet.com\u002Farticle\u002Fthese-are-the-cybersecurity-threats-of-tomorrow-that-you-should-be-thinking-about-today\u002F\"\u003EThese are the cybersecurity threats of tomorrow that you should be thinking about today\u003C\u002Fa\u003E\u003C\u002Fstrong\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe drive has a standard USB-C interface, and the first time you use the IronKey drive you can simply connect it to a computer -- PC, Mac, Linux or Chrome OS -- using the USB-C or USB-A cables included in the box. The drive will then prompt you to create an admin password. However, administrators or IT staff also have the option of creating an additional user password for a member of staff who is using the drive. Both passwords will unlock the drive, so this allows IT managers to unlock the drive with their admin password if any users forget their own passwords.   \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAdministrators can also configure a variety of security features, including a choice of two different password modes, using either a numeric PIN, or a 'passphrase', which can be up to 64 characters long. A passphrase can also include spaces, allowing users to select song lyrics or other easily remembered phrases to unlock the drive. However, the drive's firmware is also designed to protect against 'brute force attacks' and will erase the drive if an incorrect PIN or passphrase is entered 15 times (administrators can also modify that figure if required).   \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"image\" data-uuid=\"536ed459-f209-4bf7-9a26-29cb04540358\" data-size=\"original\" data-float=\"none\" data-image-caption=\"\u003Cp\u003EYour data, encrypted and ready to travel securely.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-image-credit=\"Image: Cliff Joseph \u002F ZDNET\" data-image-alt-text=\"Kingston IronKey Vault Privacy 80\" data-image-filename=\"kingston-ironkey-vault-privacy-80-with-macbook.jpg\" data-image-date-created=\"2022\u002F08\u002F23\" data-image-width=\"2063\" data-image-height=\"1123\" data-image-do-not-crop=\"false\" data-image-do-not-resize=\"false\" data-image-watermark=\"false\" data-lightbox=\"false\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe one downside to this high level of security is that the IronKey isn't the fastest solid-state drive available.

That's the sort of performance we might expect from a good hard drive, rather than an SSD, but some organisations may consider that trade-off acceptable in order to protect sensitive files and data.   \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"commercepromo\" data-id=\"cd0a0872-e2da-4a6e-98f1-2bf0e8761ed7\" data-edition=\"us\" data-hed=\"Kingston IronKey Vault Privacy 80\" data-imagegroup=\"{"alt":"Kingston IronKey Vault Privacy 80","caption":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E","credits":"Image: Kingston","imageData":{"id":"d454d126-579e-4d30-9758-b5e6e1942860","filename":"kingston-ironkey-vault-privacy-80-770x433.jpg","path":"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zdnet.com\u002Fa\u002Fimg\u002F2022\u002F08\u002F23\u002Fd454d126-579e-4d30-9758-b5e6e1942860\u002Fkingston-ironkey-vault-privacy-80-770x433.jpg","dateCreated":{"date":"2022-08-23 10:55:08","timezone":"UTC","timezone_type":3},"primeColor":null,"hasWarning":false},"uuid":"d454d126-579e-4d30-9758-b5e6e1942860","imageFilename":"kingston-ironkey-vault-privacy-80-770x433.jpg","imageDateCreated":"2022\u002F08\u002F23"}\" data-overridecaption=\"\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-overridecredit=\"Image: Kingston\" data-offerurl=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.amazon.com\u002Fs?k=Kingston+IronKey+Vault+Privacy+80&crid=1NA9OUFJO6B38&sprefix=kingston+ironkey+vault+privacy+80%2Caps%2C122&ref=nb_sb_noss_1\" data-offermerchant=\"Amazon\" data-techobjectinfo=\"{}\" data-usemonetization=\"true\" data-usepricing=\"true\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAlternatively, if your storage requirements are more modest, then Kingston has also launched a memory stick called the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.kingston.com\u002Funitedkingdom\u002Fen\u002Fusb-flash-drives\u002Fironkey-vp50-encrypted\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EIronKey Vault Privacy 50\u003C\u002Fa\u003E.

With a 5000mAh battery the Moto G22 should keep going beyond a full day, and might, for some users, even stretch into a second day.

This is interminably slow by today's standards, and it's not possible to deliver a quick burst while you're getting ready to go out, for example. Charging is a deliberate process that will take time. When I plugged the handset in with the battery at 34% it took 15 minutes to get to 44% and another 15 minutes to get to 54%.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe 6.5-inch IPS screen has a 90Hz refresh rate, but the resolution is just 1,600 by 720 pixels (268ppi) which leaves text looking sonewhat blurred; reading web pages, emails and so on is not a satisfying experience.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe handset is powered by a \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.mediatek.com\u002Fproducts\u002Fsmartphones-2\u002Fmediatek-helio-g37\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EMediaTek Helio G37\u003C\u002Fa\u003E SoC which, as noted earlier, does not offer 5G support. The combination of this entry-level chipset and 4GB of RAM makes the Moto G22 feel distinctly under-powered: I noticed tardy responses to screen taps, hesitation while web pages resolved, and a general feeling that even the simplest of tasks -- like doing a search in settings -- was too much for the phone as it stuttered to deliver results.

Charging two laptops at once would run the battery down pretty quickly, but having 100W on both ports means you can plug your laptop charger and laptop into the ScoutPro (without worrying about which cable goes in which port) and both the laptop and battery would charge at the same time.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"reviewcard\" data-id=\"c0f074bd-d113-4caa-8ae4-faee35a74979\" data-edition=\"us\" data-productname=\"Intelli ScoutPro\" data-like=\"24,000mAh battery ~ Wireless charging for phones and smartwatches ~ 2x 100W USB-C ports\" data-dislike=\"Large and heavy ~ Expensive\" data-editorschoice=\"false\" data-editorsmonth=\"11\" data-editorsyear=\"2021\" data-editorsdate=\""2021-11-01T15:17:53.162Z"\" data-innovationaward=\"false\" data-innovationmonth=\"11\" data-innovationyear=\"2021\" data-innovationdate=\""2021-11-01T15:17:53.162Z"\" data-imagegroup=\"{"alt":"","caption":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E","credits":"","imageData":{"id":"987b47b9-ab68-429a-862d-f5d72f60a00b","filename":"intelli-scout-pro-770x433.jpg","path":"https:\u002F\u002Fimage-resizer.prod.zdnet.com\u002Fi\u002F2021\u002F11\u002F29\u002F987b47b9-ab68-429a-862d-f5d72f60a00b\u002Fintelli-scout-pro-770x433.jpg","dateCreated":{"date":"2021-11-29 10:46:05","timezone":"UTC","timezone_type":3},"primeColor":null,"hasWarning":false},"uuid":"987b47b9-ab68-429a-862d-f5d72f60a00b","imageFilename":"intelli-scout-pro-770x433.jpg","imageDateCreated":"2021\u002F11\u002F29"}\" data-merchantoffers=\"[{"useMonetization":true,"monetizedUrl":"","offerMerchant":"Intelli","offerPrice":"329.99","monetizationStatus":"on","rawUrl":"https:\u002F\u002Fintelli.co\u002Fproducts\u002Fscoutpro-oled-240w-powerbank-that-fits-in-your-back-pocket?variant=40428998688968","url":""}]\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cp\u003EMore disappointing is the change to the battery display on our review unit.

It has a USB-A port (with support for QuickCharge 3 and Huawei's 24W Super Charge), but only two USB-C ports instead of three on the Chargeasap device. But having both USB-C ports rated at 100W rather than the 20W\u002F60W\u002F100W options on the Flash Pro Plus could save you wasting time by charging too slowly if you don't double-check the port label. With fewer ports, there's room for the power button and display next to the ports, which is more convenient than having the screen on the top of the battery and the power button on the side.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECharging a phone or other small gadgets from the ScoutPro is much like plugging them into the wall, and there's enough capacity to charge them multiple times. Wireless charging worked well with two generations of iPhone and an Android phone. Getting an Apple Watch to charge was more fiddly -- you have to locate it very carefully on the charging spot -- but it worked once we had it in place.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECharging a laptop (while using it) is more demanding, and the speed and level of charge varies depending on the laptop's charge level. When you first connect the ScoutPro, the draw will be quite high as your laptop gets more power and the battery bank runs down; the charging rate then slows down somewhat.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWe used the fully charged ScoutPro to power a 15-inch Surface Book 3 that had 42% charge: initially Windows estimated that would take 1 hour 51 minutes to fully charge; after a couple of minutes of power negotiation this dropped to 1 hour 2 minutes. It actually took 1 hour 10 minutes to run the ScoutPro down to zero, at which point the Surface Book had 96% charge, so the ScoutPro was about to give it just over a half charge.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIt did better when charging a Surface Laptop 4 that was completely out of power and wouldn't even turn on, taking 1 hour 3 minutes to get to 65% charge. This accounted for 85% of the ScoutPro's charge -- not quite as efficient as the Chargeasap Flash Pro Plus, which only took 52 minutes to get the Surface Laptop 4 from 11% to 74% charge, and only used 63% of its own charge. However, charging a battery that's gone flat does take more energy.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe Intelli and Chargeasap are very similar in size and weight too: the curved sides of the ScoutPro are more comfortable to pick up, but even if you don't carry it in its protective case (which is rather bulky, but has room for cables, chargers, earbuds and other small gadgets), at over half a kilogram (610g, or 1.34lbs) you're going to know you have this in your backpack.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"image\" data-uuid=\"520538ad-0c7e-4e8e-b55b-0ec51b4615db\" data-size=\"medium\" data-float=\"right\" data-image-caption=\"\u003Cp\u003EOur ScoutPro came with a large, sturdy carrying case with room for other accessories.

Using the Chargeasap 100W PD charger, we got to 98% charge from a completely flat battery in 1 hour 6 minutes (very similar to the Flash Pro Plus); using a USB-C Apple charger that delivers up to 60W it took 1 hour 20 minutes to get to 54% charge.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIntelli says the battery includes a USB 4 cable (with USB-C connectors), although it shipped separately from our test unit.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAt $329.99\u002F£240, the ScoutPro is quite a bit more expensive than other 24,000mAh portable batteries on the market (models that can't charge multiple laptops and don't include Qi charging cost £60-£80). It's also a little pricier than the $319 Flash Pro Plus, which is almost as capable and has a more informative display. It's worth shopping around though because currently, the ScoutPro is still available at lower prices -- $179\u002F£134 on Kickstarter and Indiegogo, and \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fintelli.co\u002Fproducts\u002Fscoutpro-oled-240w-powerbank-that-fits-in-your-back-pocket?variant=40428998688968\" target=\"_blank\"\u003E$189.99\u002F£142 on Intelli's own website\u003C\u002Fa\u003E.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPick the ScoutPro if you need to charge two laptops and a slew of other devices at once, or if you expect to use the charge-through option to charge up your laptop and battery at the same time.

I was sent the latter to review and unlike the other two it has a light refracting back with a diamond-cut pattern, underneath which is a stippled finish. The appearance varies depending on how it catches the light. It's rather appealing, if a little bright for some tastes.   \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ETwin circles in the top left of the back hold the various camera components, and these protrude significantly from the backplate, causing the handset to move about on a desk when the screen is tapped on its left side. Honor provides a transparent bumper case that levels off this protrusion while having a minimal effect on the appearance of the backplate, so the usual trade-off between a bumper and getting the full backplate design experience is not an issue here.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe bumper also solves a potential backplate issue -- slipperiness, which can cause it to slide around on the soft arm of a chair and fall to the ground, and make it difficult to grip for one-handed use.    \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESlipperiness aside, the Honor 70 is quite stylish, and its slim profile and curved long screen edges make it look more 'premium' than it is.

Honor does not provide a 3.5mm headset jack, nor does this handset have an IP rating indicating dust and water resistance. There is only a single speaker, and its quality is one of this handset's disappointments. There is a distinct lack of bass, so that spoken word and talk radio is reasonable, but music suffers badly. Also, at top volume, there is noticeable distortion.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis is a shame, because the 6.67-inch OLED screen is rather good, with a 20:9 aspect ratio that accommodates 2,400 by 1,080 pixels (395ppi). The screen's long edges curve into the body giving a zero-bezel appearance, while top and bottom bezels are so small as to be insignificant. We calculated the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.silisoftware.com\u002Ftools\u002Fscreen_aspect_ratio_calculator\" target=\"_blank\"\u003Escreen-to-body ratio\u003C\u002Fa\u003E to be an impressive 90.72%.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe OLED panel can display 1.07 billion colours and supports 100% of the DCI-P3 gamut, while the refresh rate can be set to 120Hz all the time, 60Hz all the time, or to dynamically switch between the two. This setup isn't as advanced as \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.oled-info.com\u002Fltpo\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ELTPO-\u003C\u002Fa\u003Ebased switching, which will go right down to 1Hz to conserve battery life, but for a handset at this price point the setup is more than adequate. The in-screen fingerprint sensor worked perfectly for me, and face unlock is also available.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThere is a range of display settings that includes colour mode and temperature settings, eye comfort, which can be scheduled or toggled manually, and an e-book mode that turns the screen to greyscale. I'm a big fan of this mode, and when it's available on a review handset I use it not only for e-books but also a fair bit of the time for general use.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.qualcomm.com\u002Fproducts\u002Fapplication\u002Fsmartphones\u002Fsnapdragon-7-series-mobile-platforms\u002Fsnapdragon-778g-plus-5g-mobile-platform\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ESnapdragon 778G Plus\u003C\u002Fa\u003E chipset is quite widely used -- I last saw it in Motorola's \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zdnet.com\u002Farticle\u002Fmotorola-edge-30-hands-on\u002F\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EMoto Edge 30\u003C\u002Fa\u003E where, paired with 8GB of RAM, it delivered \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.geekbench.com\u002F\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EGeekbench 5\u003C\u002Fa\u003E CPU scores of 819 (single core) and 2843 (multi core).

This is accompanied by a 50MP f\u002F2.2 ultra-wide angle (122˚) camera and a 2MP f\u002F2.4 depth camera. You can shoot 4K video at 30 frames per second (fps) and there is 10x digital zoom, but no optical telephoto capability. The front camera is a punch-hole 32MP f\u002F2.4 unit that's limited to 1080p video shooting at 30fps. Some users may appreciate the ability to capture video from the front and rear cameras at the same time.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EI found photographs to be bright, sharp and clear, although maxing out digital zoom created some grainy imagery.

At the price, this phone needs to be not only good, but also excellent, across the board. How does it shape up?  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe Xperia 1 IV is very recognisable, with a distinctive tall and thin form factor to accommodate the 21:9 screen.

The phone measures 71mm wide and 165mm tall, and you need large hands to reach from the top to the bottom of the screen with a thumb. With my small hands, I found that one-handed use required a rather ungainly crablike motion to shift the phone around in my palm. That said, it's difficult to use many of today's phones comfortably one-handed, and Sony does have some mitigation in place (see below).  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe Xperia 1 IV is quite thin at 8.2mm and relatively light at 185g. As you'd expect from a premium handset, there is water and dust resistance certification -- specifically, an \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fen.wikipedia.org\u002Fwiki\u002FIP_Code\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EIP65\u002F68\u003C\u002Fa\u003E rating. Testing involves immersion in a container filled with tap water to a depth of 1.5 metres for 30 minutes. At home, the equivalent might be an accidental dunking in a sink of water.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBoth the front and back of the Xperia 1 IV are protected by Corning's top-end \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.corning.com\u002Fgorillaglass\u002Fworldwide\u002Fen\u002Fglass-types\u002Fgorilla-glass-victus.html\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EGorilla Glass Victus\u003C\u002Fa\u003E. The back of my review unit was matt black, but you can also opt for white or purple. The finish is reasonably smooth, and thankfully did not collect my fingerprints during testing. Whatever the backplate colour, the camera bump is black. It's tall and thin, and doesn't protrude too far.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe edges house a good range of buttons and ports. The power button and volume rocker are on the right edge, with the former incorporating a fingerprint sensor. Also on this edge is a dedicated button for launching the camera and taking a quick snap. The USB-C charge port and SIM caddy are on the bottom, while the top edge houses a 3.5mm headset jack.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe 6.5-inch OLED display delivers an impressive 4K resolution (3840 x 1644, 21:9, 643ppi), although this is not new for Sony -- last year's \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zdnet.com\u002Fproduct\u002Fsony-xperia-1-iii\u002F\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EXperia 1 III\u003C\u002Fa\u003E had the same specification, which would be hard to beat.

S mode only allows users to download apps from the Microsoft store, and the only browser allowed is Microsoft Edge. You can switch away from S mode, but can't switch back again. I stayed in S mode for the duration of this review in order to keep continuity with the Xiaomi Book S 12.4-inch as shipped to users. However, this meant I did not have access to some apps -- most notably the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.geekbench.com\u002F\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EGeekbench 5\u003C\u002Fa\u003E benchmark app.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"image\" data-uuid=\"67eddb1b-3812-4bc2-af6d-c36de98f0785\" data-size=\"original\" data-float=\"none\" data-image-caption=\"\u003Cp\u003EXiaomi Book S 12.4: Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx Gen 2 chipset, 8GB of RAM, 256GB of SSD storage (expandable via MicroSD card).

I certainly never felt that things would come apart in transit. However, as with all devices of this type, working on a lap or any surface that's not firm is impossible. There is no lift mechanism for the keyboard either, so if you prefer a raised typing angle you'll be disappointed.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe optional Xiaomi Book S 12.4-inch Keyboard is comfortable to use. The keys are large, with plenty of travel, and have a pretty good action for a keyboard of this type. They emit only a slight dull 'thunk' in use. The QWERTY and character keys all have a slight indent, but the Fn row and other 'function related' keys such as tab, caps lock, shift, backspace and enter, as well as all of the bottom row, are flat. Visually the appearance is somewhat disjointed, but it didn't make any difference to typing for me, and I managed to work at close to my normal touch-typing speed.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe 12.4-inch screen sits in smallish bezels. It is a 2,560 by 1,600 panel, offering 244ppi in a 16:10 aspect ratio. The refresh rate of 60Hz is no more than adequate, but the 500 nits maximum brightness makes it possible to use this tablet outdoors. Colour gamut support is good, too, with Xiaomi claiming 100% of DCI-P3.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe touch screen is easy to work with, and Xiaomi also provides an optional Smart Pen stylus that attaches to the left short edge with strong magnets, charging wirelessly when in this location. There's no permanent housing for the stylus on the chassis, though, so you'll need to take care not to mislay it.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPorts and connectors are all on the tablet. One short edge has a volume rocker, a power switch, a 3.5mm headset jack, a USB-C port, a MicroSD card slot and one of the two speaker grilles. The other grille is on the other short edge. It's good to see a 1080p webcam here for video calls, while the rear camera is a 13MP unit. There's no fingerprint sensor, but \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fdocs.microsoft.com\u002Fen-us\u002Fwindows-hardware\u002Fdesign\u002Fdevice-experiences\u002Fwindows-hello-face-authentication\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EWindows Hello face authentication\u003C\u002Fa\u003E is available via the webcam in addition to a Windows password or PIN.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAudio output from the speakers is of reasonable quality and volume. They're perfectly adequate for general listening, although bass tones aren't as strong as they could be.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe Snapdragon 8cx Gen 2 chipset is supported by 8GB of RAM. It handled the tasks I threw at it -- streaming content through a couple of browser windows and writing into web apps – well enough, but these are low-level workloads. As noted earlier I didn't run Geekbench 5 to see how the Xiaomi Book S compares with other tablets because this wasn't available in the Windows app store. Looking at the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fbrowser.geekbench.com\u002Fv5\u002Fcpu\u002Fsearch?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=Xiaomi+Book+S\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EGeekbench browser\u003C\u002Fa\u003E, single-core scores are around 750 while multi-core scores are around 2900.

To test this, I worked for three hours from a fully charged battery. After three hours there was 61% charge remaining, suggesting total battery life of about 7.7 hours.   \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhen the battery had drained to 28% I started charging. After 15 minutes the battery had risen to 40%. A further 15 minutes of charging saw it reach 53% and after 45 minutes the battery was at 66%.

The keyboard is comfortable to use (although its angle can't be raised) and the screen offers plenty of brightness. The 1080p webcam is good, and there's a MicroSD card slot for storage expansion.

\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDownsides include ageing Gorilla Glass 3 screen protection, a chipset offering modest performance, the lack of an on-board housing for the stylus, a shortage of ports

Microsoft's 13-inch Surface Pro X with SQ1 chipset, 8GB RAM and 256GB of SSD storage, plus a Surface Pro Keyboard and Surface Slim Pen 2 stylus comes to £1,047.99, while HP's similarly specified 13.5-inch Elite Folio will set you back £1,438.60 at the time of writing.

The display is a 15.6-inch model with a 3840 x 2160 pixel resolution and 16:9 ratio. It is an IPS panel with solid brightness and a 60Hz refresh rate. Content looks great on the display, and it is a touchscreen so that you can interact with the connected device, in most cases, with the display.

The build quality of the display portion is great. Along the back, we find the lower third of the LapDock protruding out a couple of mm with an aluminum kickstand that hides the ports under the outer legs. The kickstand rotates through 180 degrees, so you can set up the LapDock for your preferred viewing angle. The kickstand design supports a very stable platform, too, and this design is one of my favorite features. \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EUnder the right side leg, we find a mini HDMI port and two USB-C ports. The center USB-C port is used for connecting your external device, while the top one is only for charging up the LapDock and its large capacity battery. On the left side, we find a 3.5mm audio port, USB-C port, and a pulley button that presses in and moves up and down. This particular USB-C port is used to connect an external mouse and keyboard. It's important to keep the purpose in mind for the three USB-C ports as they are not interchangeable, and things won't work right without using the correct port. You can use both USB-C ports on the right side to charge up the LapDock. \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAlso:\u003C\u002Fstrong\u003E \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zdnet.com\u002Fhome-and-office\u002Fsmart-office\u002Fusing-the-wrong-usb-c-cable-can-damage-your-tech-heres-how-to-avoid-that\u002F\" target=\"_blank\"\u003EUsing the wrong USB-C cable can damage your tech.

With the flexible attachment from the connection point to the keyboard, the keyboard moves around all over and does not create a stable working platform.

I highly recommend you view the Quick Start Guide that will show you how to full unlock, extend, and setup your gimbal for use. It's just a few steps to setup the hardware, including sliding up the main vertical arm and tightening the screw, rotating the tilt axis fixing buckle, and then rotating the roll axis fixing buckle that has the smartphone mounting bracket attached to it. Slide apart the smartphone clamp, it has rubber braces on either side, and insert your phone with the cameras facing away from you.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EOne thing to note about the vertical arm screw is that this is not intended to fully lock the vertical arm so don't crank down too hard on the vertical screw.

In landscape orientation, move the phone left or right within the phone clamp until it is steady and almost level with the ground. In portrait mode, you can actually slide the phone mount itself left or right, there are metal bars between the two clamp pieces that slide left to right in the mount, until it is almost level to the ground. You do not need perfect balancing since the gimbal will align everything when turned on, but it helps to get the balance close so that you don't have the phone awkwardly positioned or the gimbal working too hard to maintain balance.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThere is a LED light above your smartphone, when in landscape orientation, that can be rotated 180 degrees so you can use the light while recording selfie videos too.

There are options for video, photo, pano, dolly zoom, timelapse, hyperlapse, and smart options.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe main use of a smartphone gimbal is to capture video content and the mode button on the gimbal is focused on this experience. Pan follow mode (PF) means that the tilt and roll axis motors are locked and the pan axis follows the movement of the stabilizer handle. The joystick is used to control tilt and pan axis in this mode. When Lock mode (L) is enabled the three motors are locked and will not follow the movement of the stabilizer handle with the joystick again controlling tilt and pan. In Follow mode (F) the roll axis motor is locked with the tilt and pan axis motors following the movement of the stabilizer handle. \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe Point of View mode (POV) is pretty radical in that all three motors follow the movement of the stabilizer handle. Vortex mode is accessed from either the POV or PF modes with the POV indicator light flashing while in this mode. PhoneGo mode is enabled by pressing and holding the rear trigger button. The F indicator flashes when this mode is enabled and in this mode the camera pans and tilts following the movement of the stabilizer at fast speed while the roll axis is locked.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"youtube_video\" data-size=\"large\" data-float=\"none\" data-oembed=\"{"author_name":"Zhiyun-Tech","author_url":"https:\\\u002F\\\u002Fwww.youtube.com\\\u002Fc\\\u002FZhiyunTechGlobal","height":113,"html":"\u003Ciframe width=\\"200\\" height=\\"113\\" src=\\"https:\\\u002F\\\u002Fwww.youtube.com\\\u002Fembed\\\u002FrzIvs6GC6KE?autoplay=0&amp;loop=0&amp;fs=1&amp;start=0&amp;rel=1&amp;feature=oembed\\" frameborder=\\"0\\" allow=\\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\\" allowfullscreen\u003E\u003C\\\u002Fiframe\u003E","provider_name":"YouTube","provider_url":"https:\\\u002F\\\u002Fwww.youtube.com\\\u002F","thumbnail_height":360,"thumbnail_url":"https:\\\u002F\\\u002Fi.ytimg.com\\\u002Fvi\\\u002FrzIvs6GC6KE\\\u002Fhqdefault.jpg","thumbnail_width":480,"title":"ZHIYUN SMOOTH-Q3 | Illuminate to Create","type":"video","version":"1.0","width":200}\" data-url=\"https:\u002F\u002Fyoutu.be\u002FrzIvs6GC6KE\" data-autoplay=\"false\" data-loop=\"false\" data-start=\"0\" data-fs=\"true\" data-rel=\"true\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe ZY Cami app also has a powerful editor that lets you fully edit your captured content right on your phone.

My Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 has too odd of a form factor to work in the gimbal, which was expected. The phone clamp securely held these phones and the rubber inserts protected the finish on the phones. You can even mount your phone in a case if it is not a bulky case.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe Smart Follow mode was very impressive where a green box appears that you place on your subject and then the gimbal follows that subject wherever they move. This is also useful when using the tripod to record yourself doing things in front of the camera.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe panoramic mode with the tripod is awesome since you can set the Smooth Q3 down on a stable surface, enable pano in the software, and then hit record to watch the gimbal work with your phone to capture a perfectly aligned pano shot. I always seem to move up or down a bit when I try shooting these just with my phone.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe dolly zoom option is an interesting effect that we've seen in movies in the past and it's sometimes called the Hitchcock effect. You move towards or away from the subject while zooming in the opposite direction. This effect was used on Chief Brody in Jaws to great success. The smart\u002Ftemplate options were also fun as they give you some filters and methods to experiment with easily where you simply select the template and then shoot the video.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EOverall, I was very satisfied with the Zhiyun Smooth Q3 gimbal's performance, price, and powerful shooting\u002Fediting software. The light is a great addition and it's a fairly compact gimbal. While Zhiyun advertises 7-15 hours of battery life, my experience was that the 7 hours is more typical and should be expected. That said, that's plenty of time to capture video content all day long.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E",gallery:c,category:c,children:c,contentType:b,contentUrl:b,coreImages:c,date:c,datePublished:{created:c,date:"2021-12-05 21:19:00",timezone:"UTC",updated:c,published:c},description:"If you capture video with your smartphone, a gimbal is a great way to capture smooth and cinematic content.

You may not need the onboard music storage capability, but if you want the best underwater audio experience, then onboard music is preferred, and the Naenka Runner Diver is built for multiple sports.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch2\u003EAlternatives to consider\u003C\u002Fh2\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"commercepromo\" data-id=\"e379bae8-5494-4b94-b299-9657bbc8a4dd\" data-edition=\"us\" data-hed=\"Shokz OpenSwim\" data-imagegroup=\"{"alt":"shokz-openswim","caption":"\u003Cp\u003EOpenSwim bone conduction headset\u003C\u002Fp\u003E","credits":"Image: Shokz","imageData":{"id":"c8fb63c1-84cc-4ca9-a1ee-ad6c3c70fd22","filename":"shokz-openswim.jpg","path":"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zdnet.com\u002Fa\u002Fimg\u002F2022\u002F06\u002F11\u002Fc8fb63c1-84cc-4ca9-a1ee-ad6c3c70fd22\u002Fshokz-openswim.jpg","dateCreated":{"date":"2022-06-11 22:53:23","timezone":"UTC","timezone_type":3},"primeColor":null,"hasWarning":false},"uuid":"c8fb63c1-84cc-4ca9-a1ee-ad6c3c70fd22","imageFilename":"shokz-openswim.jpg","imageDateCreated":"2022\u002F06\u002F11"}\" data-overridecaption=\"\u003Cp\u003EOpenSwim bone conduction headset\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-overridecredit=\"Image: Shokz\" data-offerurl=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.amazon.com\u002FShokz-OpenSwim-Conduction-Waterproof-Headphones\u002Fdp\u002FB09CGP8MVH\" data-offerprice=\"149.95\" data-offermerchant=\"Amazon\" data-techobjectinfo=\"{}\" data-usemonetization=\"true\" data-usepricing=\"true\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"commercepromo\" data-id=\"25876299-1b45-4928-9bf3-55bab8a09f4b\" data-edition=\"us\" data-hed=\"Sony Walkman NW-WS623\" data-imagegroup=\"{"alt":"sony-ws623","caption":"\u003Cp\u003ESony Walkman swimming headphones with music onboard\u003C\u002Fp\u003E","credits":"Image: Sony","imageData":{"id":"f006c6e7-16ea-42f7-b12f-9d947ffcf4c4","filename":"sony-ws623.jpg","path":"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zdnet.com\u002Fa\u002Fimg\u002F2022\u002F06\u002F11\u002Ff006c6e7-16ea-42f7-b12f-9d947ffcf4c4\u002Fsony-ws623.jpg","dateCreated":{"date":"2022-06-11 22:57:56","timezone":"UTC","timezone_type":3},"primeColor":null,"hasWarning":false},"uuid":"f006c6e7-16ea-42f7-b12f-9d947ffcf4c4","imageFilename":"sony-ws623.jpg","imageDateCreated":"2022\u002F06\u002F11"}\" data-overridecaption=\"\u003Cp\u003ESony Walkman swimming headphones with music onboard\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-overridecredit=\"Image: Sony\" data-offerurl=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.amazon.com\u002FSony-Waterproof-dustproof-Bluetooth-Technology\u002Fdp\u002FB071NTXYNY\u002Fref=sr_1_4?crid=3CW9K3W90VH83&keywords=Sony%2BNW-WS413LM&qid=1654988106&s=electronics&sprefix=sony%2Bnw-ws413lm%2Celectronics%2C255&sr=1-4&th=1\" data-offerprice=\"149.99\" data-offermerchant=\"Amazon\" data-techobjectinfo=\"{}\" data-usemonetization=\"true\" data-usepricing=\"true\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"commercepromo\" data-id=\"7fb7b0cd-6161-432d-90e1-b43d544ebfaa\" data-edition=\"us\" data-hed=\"Nagfak bone conduction headphones\" data-imagegroup=\"{"alt":"nagfak-bone-conduction-headphones","caption":"\u003Cp\u003EWaterproof swimming headphones\u003C\u002Fp\u003E","credits":"Image: Amazon","imageData":{"id":"0daf078e-c477-444c-af9a-94f2422bc958","filename":"nagfak-bone-conduction-headphones.jpg","path":"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zdnet.com\u002Fa\u002Fimg\u002F2022\u002F06\u002F11\u002F0daf078e-c477-444c-af9a-94f2422bc958\u002Fnagfak-bone-conduction-headphones.jpg","dateCreated":{"date":"2022-06-11 23:02:44","timezone":"UTC","timezone_type":3},"primeColor":null,"hasWarning":false},"uuid":"0daf078e-c477-444c-af9a-94f2422bc958","imageFilename":"nagfak-bone-conduction-headphones.jpg","imageDateCreated":"2022\u002F06\u002F11"}\" data-overridecaption=\"\u003Cp\u003EWaterproof swimming headphones\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-overridecredit=\"Image: Amazon\" data-offerurl=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.amazon.com\u002FNAGFAK-Conduction-Headphones-Bluetooth-Waterproof\u002Fdp\u002FB09YM2JXHM\u002Fref=sr_1_9?keywords=Swimming+Headphones&qid=1654988403&sr=8-9\" data-offerprice=\"89.99\" data-offermerchant=\"Amazon\" data-techobjectinfo=\"{}\" data-usemonetization=\"true\" data-usepricing=\"true\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"pinbox\" data-uuid=\"47b1617b-799d-4263-9878-ccc4bc00d4b9\" data-uri=\"\u002Fapi\u002Fcomponent\u002Feditorial\u002F47b1617b-799d-4263-9878-ccc4bc00d4b9\" data-float=\"none\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E",gallery:c,category:c,children:c,contentType:b,contentUrl:b,coreImages:c,date:c,datePublished:{created:c,date:"2022-06-10 12:41:00",timezone:"UTC",updated:c,published:c},description:"Your summer needs a soundtrack.

I really liked that earlier model, and two years is a long time in headset evolution. At $249.95, or £219.99 in the UK, the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 is considerably more affordable than its predecessor, which launched at $299.95\u002F£279.99. Hopefully the price cut does not indicate that build or audio quality are reduced in any way.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhatever the audio quality, earbuds need to be comfortable to wear. I found the earlier model a bit large and uncomfortable in my ears. I can't have been the only one, as this time around the buds are a fair bit smaller and a little lighter – 5.8g here versus 6g for the previous model. They still feel a little bit chunky in my ears, but less so, and I wasn't troubled by the discomfort I felt after an hour or so of wear this time around. Four pairs of tips are provided, along with three pairs of rubber rings that help the buds sit comfortably in the ear. That's a lot of personalisation options to tweak, but the end result was, for me, a comfortable and snug fit. The packaging also contains a short USB-C charging cable.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"image\" data-uuid=\"bef753fe-c1ce-42ff-88d9-0f3467e38cac\" data-size=\"original\" data-float=\"none\" data-image-caption=\"\u003Cp\u003ESennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 earbuds.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-image-credit=\"Image: Sandra Vogel \u002F ZDNET\" data-image-alt-text=\"Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3\" data-image-filename=\"sennheiser-momentum-true-wireless-3-buds.jpg\" data-image-date-created=\"2022\u002F09\u002F06\" data-image-width=\"950\" data-image-height=\"500\" data-image-do-not-crop=\"false\" data-image-do-not-resize=\"false\" data-image-watermark=\"false\" data-lightbox=\"false\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe bud design has changed too, and we now have a squared-off finish and subtler branding, which some might appreciate. Touch controls on the buds are plentiful, with each bud providing one-tap, two-tap, three-tap and long-press options. It's a fair bit to remember, but the full gamut provides music playback, call management, volume control, noise cancellation, transparency and using a voice assistant. The Sennheiser app allows you to customise these controls.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe app also has a nifty trick for those willing to register a free account: you can create up to 20 \"sound zones\", which will automatically switch to a pre-set equaliser setting when specified areas are entered. You might want different equaliser settings for the office, home, or other locations, for example.   \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"image\" data-uuid=\"674e116d-4e40-4a30-8169-aed832ce070e\" data-size=\"original\" data-float=\"none\" data-image-caption=\"\u003Cp\u003EThe charging case is smaller than the previous version, but provides more battery capacity.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-image-credit=\"Image: Sandra Vogel \u002F ZDNET\" data-image-alt-text=\"Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3: Case\" data-image-filename=\"sennheiser-momentum-true-wireless-3-in-case.jpg\" data-image-date-created=\"2022\u002F09\u002F06\" data-image-width=\"1024\" data-image-height=\"768\" data-image-do-not-crop=\"false\" data-image-do-not-resize=\"false\" data-image-watermark=\"false\" data-lightbox=\"false\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe case retains the fabric covered design of its predecessor. This makes a nice change from shiny or matte plastic, and my graphite case and buds looked smart. There are also black and white options. I was concerned when I reviewed the Momentum True Wireless 2 that the fabric might get dirty or stained in use: I am exceptionally careful with my kit, and two years on the case is unmarked. Similarly careful users may be able to keep the version 3 case in pristine condition too.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe case is considerably smaller than before. Where the earbuds have IPX4 splash resistance, the case does not. It provides 850-950mAh of charge as opposed to 600mAh last time. The buds, although smaller, also carry more power at 77mAh compared to 55-60mAh. Yet the operating time remains the same: 7 hours for the buds and a full 28 hours if the case's capacity is fully utilised. Charging is fast, with 10 minutes of charge providing 1 hour of music, while a full case charge needs just 1.5 hours. Wireless charging is supported this time round, too.  \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"image\" data-uuid=\"ccbd8556-ab0d-4831-ba9d-ab30b3450def\" data-size=\"original\" data-float=\"none\" data-image-caption=\"\u003Cp\u003EThere's plenty of scope for personalisation via the companion mobile app.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-image-credit=\"Screenshots: Sandra Vogel \u002F ZDNET\" data-image-alt-text=\"Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3: App\" data-image-filename=\"sennheiser-momentum-true-wireless-3-app-controls.jpg\" data-image-date-created=\"2022\u002F09\u002F06\" data-image-width=\"1200\" data-image-height=\"1200\" data-image-do-not-crop=\"false\" data-image-do-not-resize=\"false\" data-image-watermark=\"false\" data-lightbox=\"false\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cp\u003EI found audio quality to be superb.

I could still faintly hear myself typing while working with the buds and playing music, but I would rather that than full suppression of external noise.

Some are flimsy plastic kickstands, but that is clearly not the case here. At first, I thought ESR had a major design flaw since it appeared that the volume controls were on the bottom (in landscape orientation) so you couldn't control the volume while watching video content. That is true when the kickstand is extended and you put the extended end down on a surface with the hinged end up. However, the ESR case has such a substantial kickstand design that you simply rotate your phone 180 degrees and the extended end lays down parallel to the surface while still propping up the phone.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cdiv data-shortcode=\"image\" data-uuid=\"b295621f-5805-4451-bb5c-a75264eeacfa\" data-size=\"large\" data-float=\"none\" data-image-caption=\"\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\" data-image-credit=\"Matthew Miller\u002FZDNet\" data-image-alt-text=\"esr-s22-ultra-kickstand-case-4.jpg\" data-image-filename=\"esr-s22-ultra-kickstand-case-4.jpg\" data-image-date-created=\"2022\u002F04\u002F17\" data-image-width=\"1425\" data-image-height=\"1069\" data-image-do-not-crop=\"false\" data-image-do-not-resize=\"false\" data-image-watermark=\"false\" data-lightbox=\"false\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fdiv\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis type of kickstand design is unique, but it also gives you lots of flexibility when it comes to propping your phone up at the best angle for your viewing needs.

Our experts looked for deals that were at least 20% off (or are hardly ever on sale), using established price comparison tools and trackers to determine whether the deal is actually on sale and how frequently it drops. \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWe also looked over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the deals we're recommending. Our recommendations may also be based on our own testing -- in addition to extensive research and comparison shopping.

However, expect retailers to begin early discounts and sales weeks before.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EWhen is Cyber Monday?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECyber Monday is happening on Monday, Dec. 2, 2024, following Black Friday.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EAre phone deals really better on Black Friday?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EYes, phones, including recent iPhone models, are often cheaper on Black Friday, matching (if not beating) the level of discount you'd find during any other major shopping event. This is partly because Black Friday happens months after most manufacturers like Samsung, OnePlus, Google, and Apple have launched new devices. With the amount of time that has passed, you'll often see the more recent phones discounted by a good amount at this time. \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EiPhones are cheaper during this time because carriers like Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T offer competitive trade-in and sign-on promotions. As long as you read the fine print about the qualifications, most of these deals will cover the retail cost of the new iPhone. You'll just have to agree to a long-term installment plan that ranges between 24 months to 36 months.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EWhich retailer will have the best smartphone deals?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhile Amazon has traditionally been the most competitive with its Black Friday smartphone deals, other retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, and Target have caught up in recent years. In fact, we're seeing top offers available across a variety of stores versus just one, which is a good thing for the retail landscape.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThat said, I'd highly advise scanning the catalogs of the manufacturers themselves, such as \u003Cspan data-shortcode=\"commercelinkshortcode\" data-id=\"773d37f7-f279-40cf-a1a6-2367de30102c\" data-raw-url=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.samsung.com\u002Fus\u002Fshop\u002Fall-deals\u002Fcell-phone-deals\u002F\" data-link-shortcode-text=\"Samsung\" data-use-monetization=\"true\" data-edition=\"us\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fspan\u003E, \u003Cspan data-shortcode=\"commercelinkshortcode\" data-id=\"919cc1c0-89cc-4e8e-87c1-9bd26694f0bc\" data-raw-url=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.motorola.com\u002Fus\u002Fspecials?\" data-link-shortcode-text=\"Motorola\" data-use-monetization=\"true\" data-edition=\"us\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fspan\u003E, \u003Cspan data-shortcode=\"commercelinkshortcode\" data-id=\"8342032f-379f-44c0-930d-8e241af61924\" data-raw-url=\"https:\u002F\u002Fstore.google.com\u002F\" data-link-shortcode-text=\"Google\" data-use-monetization=\"true\" data-edition=\"us\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fspan\u003E, and \u003Cspan data-shortcode=\"commercelinkshortcode\" data-id=\"64eee51d-32cd-47ea-bf45-aca7f8ca7024\" data-raw-url=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.apple.com\u002F\" data-link-shortcode-text=\"Apple\" data-use-monetization=\"true\" data-edition=\"us\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fspan\u003E. Beyond discounts to the retail cost, manufacturers often bundle free wireless earbuds, chargers, and other accessories with your purchase. Since you're purchasing directly from the manufacturer, you'll also have a direct line with their customer support, should any problems with the product arise.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EWhat's the difference between Black Friday and Cyber Monday?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhile Black Friday's online presence has risen exponentially over the past decade, Cyber Monday was the original \"online only\" commerce event. Still, you'll find deals in-store and online for both occasions. In some cases, retailers will list new deals during Cyber Monday, especially for products or inventory that didn't sell as much during Black Friday a few days earlier.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EHow did we choose these Black Friday deals?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EZDNET chooses Black Friday deals based on the percentage of discount compared to the original price ($5 off a $20 item is just as good as $250 off a $1,000 item), how significant the discount is compared to pricing history, and whether our experts have tested and recommended the product.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWe also look at deals from a wider scope, considering better alternatives, unique use cases, stock, and existing customer reviews on websites like Amazon, Best Buy, and Reddit. The best deals will save you a decent amount of money while giving you a truly worthwhile product.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EWhere can you shop the best Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals? \u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThere's no beating in-person shopping that begins on the eve of Black Friday, and retailers such as Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart have made it a point to reward those who do. However, you can still find similar discounts online -- and with a higher chance of securing a product before it's snatched by someone else.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBesides big-box retailers, most carriers and e-commerce brands will also host some form of Black Friday and Cyber Monday promotion; simply visit your preferred destinations and see what's available.

Our experts looked for deals that were at least 20% off (or are hardly ever on sale), using established price comparison tools and trackers to determine whether the deal is actually on sale and how frequently it drops. \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWe also looked over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the deals we're recommending. Our recommendations may also be based on our own testing -- in addition to extensive research and comparison shopping.

However, expect retailers to begin early discounts and sales weeks before.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EWhen is Cyber Monday?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECyber Monday is happening on Monday, Dec. 2, 2024, following Black Friday.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EAre phone deals really better on Black Friday?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EYes, phones, including recent iPhone models, are often cheaper on Black Friday, matching (if not beating) the level of discount you'd find during any other major shopping event. This is partly because Black Friday happens months after most manufacturers like Samsung, OnePlus, Google, and Apple have launched new devices. With the amount of time that has passed, you'll often see the more recent phones discounted by a good amount at this time. \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EiPhones are cheaper during this time because carriers like Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T offer competitive trade-in and sign-on promotions. As long as you read the fine print about the qualifications, most of these deals will cover the retail cost of the new iPhone. You'll just have to agree to a long-term installment plan that ranges between 24 months to 36 months.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EWhich retailer will have the best smartphone deals?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhile Amazon has traditionally been the most competitive with its Black Friday smartphone deals, other retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, and Target have caught up in recent years. In fact, we're seeing top offers available across a variety of stores versus just one, which is a good thing for the retail landscape.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThat said, I'd highly advise scanning the catalogs of the manufacturers themselves, such as \u003Cspan data-shortcode=\"commercelinkshortcode\" data-id=\"773d37f7-f279-40cf-a1a6-2367de30102c\" data-raw-url=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.samsung.com\u002Fus\u002Fshop\u002Fall-deals\u002Fcell-phone-deals\u002F\" data-link-shortcode-text=\"Samsung\" data-use-monetization=\"true\" data-edition=\"us\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fspan\u003E, \u003Cspan data-shortcode=\"commercelinkshortcode\" data-id=\"919cc1c0-89cc-4e8e-87c1-9bd26694f0bc\" data-raw-url=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.motorola.com\u002Fus\u002Fspecials?\" data-link-shortcode-text=\"Motorola\" data-use-monetization=\"true\" data-edition=\"us\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fspan\u003E, \u003Cspan data-shortcode=\"commercelinkshortcode\" data-id=\"8342032f-379f-44c0-930d-8e241af61924\" data-raw-url=\"https:\u002F\u002Fstore.google.com\u002F\" data-link-shortcode-text=\"Google\" data-use-monetization=\"true\" data-edition=\"us\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fspan\u003E, and \u003Cspan data-shortcode=\"commercelinkshortcode\" data-id=\"64eee51d-32cd-47ea-bf45-aca7f8ca7024\" data-raw-url=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.apple.com\u002F\" data-link-shortcode-text=\"Apple\" data-use-monetization=\"true\" data-edition=\"us\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fspan\u003E. Beyond discounts to the retail cost, manufacturers often bundle free wireless earbuds, chargers, and other accessories with your purchase. Since you're purchasing directly from the manufacturer, you'll also have a direct line with their customer support, should any problems with the product arise.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EWhat's the difference between Black Friday and Cyber Monday?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhile Black Friday's online presence has risen exponentially over the past decade, Cyber Monday was the original \"online only\" commerce event. Still, you'll find deals in-store and online for both occasions. In some cases, retailers will list new deals during Cyber Monday, especially for products or inventory that didn't sell as much during Black Friday a few days earlier.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EHow did we choose these Black Friday deals?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EZDNET chooses Black Friday deals based on the percentage of discount compared to the original price ($5 off a $20 item is just as good as $250 off a $1,000 item), how significant the discount is compared to pricing history, and whether our experts have tested and recommended the product.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWe also look at deals from a wider scope, considering better alternatives, unique use cases, stock, and existing customer reviews on websites like Amazon, Best Buy, and Reddit. The best deals will save you a decent amount of money while giving you a truly worthwhile product.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EWhere can you shop the best Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals? \u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThere's no beating in-person shopping that begins on the eve of Black Friday, and retailers such as Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart have made it a point to reward those who do. However, you can still find similar discounts online -- and with a higher chance of securing a product before it's snatched by someone else.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBesides big-box retailers, most carriers and e-commerce brands will also host some form of Black Friday and Cyber Monday promotion; simply visit your preferred destinations and see what's available.

It features an adjustable stand with eight configurations, a bumper and rugged shell for added drop protection, a stylus pocket, wireless charging capabilities, and more. The Zugu case currently comes in 9 colors, which is more options than other cases on the market.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhen I tested the Zugu case over the last several weeks alongside other options on this list, it was my favorite iPad Air case. It's functional and practical, providing true security from bumps and drops. I loved using it as a stand, especially while testing several note-taking apps this month. The material feels premium and expensive and features a clean, appealing design.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhile the function is top-notch, my favorite thing about the Zugu case is the color. I have been using the case in the Desert Rose color, and as a true Gen Z corporate girl, I love it. Many companies don't cater to colors outside of black, white, tan, and brown, so the unique color choices are awesome. Although, I wish there were more fun prints and designs.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECurrent customers on the Zugu website said they like the overall protection, functionality, quality, and aesthetic of the Zugu case. Many said the case is of great value and has a premium feel, and one customer even said they wished they'd found Zugu sooner.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhat's even better is that Zugu offers a \u003Ca href="https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zugucase.com\u002Fpages\u002Ffree-ipad-repairs" target="_blank"\u003Eone-time AppleCare+ repair fee\u003C\u002Fa\u003E&nbsp;if your iPad is damaged while in a Zugu case.

In that case, Burga is the more sophisticated, sleek, and cohesive millennial with just a few more years behind them. Like Casetify, Burga is extremely popular for iPhone cases, but it's easy to overlook the brand's other protective offerings for devices like the iPad.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBurga's folio case for the iPad Air combines style and function. It features a spot for stylus storage and Apple Pencil charging, has a hard shell backing and a soft close folio front, can be used as a stand for your iPad, features shock absorption and a raised bezel design, and is overall sleek in profile.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPerhaps the best part of Burga's case is that it comes in a slew of designs, patterns, and colors. It's sophisticated but practical and offers enough secure protection for everyday use.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhen I tested the Burga case over the last few weeks, I liked its lightweight feel, Apple Pencil storage, folio-style cover, stand configuration, and numerous prints and designs. It's a great basic case to protect from everyday bumps and scratches, but I recommend upgrading to something more secure, such as an Otterbox or even the Zugu case, if you're accident-prone or rougher around the edges when it comes to handling your tech.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EI also wish the stand options on the case were a bit more comfortable for viewing, though it's a nice add-on to have the option to prop up my iPad up at all while watching a show or video. For the $60 price tag though, I think this a great buy for the features you are getting, especially considering a similar folio case from Apple is now around $80 and ones at Casetify start at $92.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECurrent customers on the Burga website said they like the overall value of the case, with emphasis on the case's design, build, and quality.

However, expect retailers to begin early discounts and sales weeks before.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EWhen is Cyber Monday?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECyber Monday is happening on Monday, Dec. 2, 2024, following Black Friday.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EAre phone deals really better on Black Friday?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EYes, phones, including recent iPhone models, are often cheaper on Black Friday, matching (if not beating) the level of discount you'd find during any other major shopping event. This is partly because Black Friday happens months after most manufacturers like Samsung, OnePlus, Google, and Apple have launched new devices. With the amount of time that has passed, you'll often see the more recent phones discounted by a good amount at this time. \u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EiPhones are cheaper during this time because carriers like Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T offer competitive trade-in and sign-on promotions. As long as you read the fine print about the qualifications, most of these deals will cover the retail cost of the new iPhone. You'll just have to agree to a long-term installment plan that ranges between 24 months to 36 months.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EWhich retailer will have the best smartphone deals?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhile Amazon has traditionally been the most competitive with its Black Friday smartphone deals, other retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, and Target have caught up in recent years. In fact, we're seeing top offers available across a variety of stores versus just one, which is a good thing for the retail landscape.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThat said, I'd highly advise scanning the catalogs of the manufacturers themselves, such as \u003Cspan data-shortcode=\"commercelinkshortcode\" data-id=\"773d37f7-f279-40cf-a1a6-2367de30102c\" data-raw-url=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.samsung.com\u002Fus\u002Fshop\u002Fall-deals\u002Fcell-phone-deals\u002F\" data-link-shortcode-text=\"Samsung\" data-use-monetization=\"true\" data-edition=\"us\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fspan\u003E, \u003Cspan data-shortcode=\"commercelinkshortcode\" data-id=\"919cc1c0-89cc-4e8e-87c1-9bd26694f0bc\" data-raw-url=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.motorola.com\u002Fus\u002Fspecials?\" data-link-shortcode-text=\"Motorola\" data-use-monetization=\"true\" data-edition=\"us\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fspan\u003E, \u003Cspan data-shortcode=\"commercelinkshortcode\" data-id=\"8342032f-379f-44c0-930d-8e241af61924\" data-raw-url=\"https:\u002F\u002Fstore.google.com\u002F\" data-link-shortcode-text=\"Google\" data-use-monetization=\"true\" data-edition=\"us\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fspan\u003E, and \u003Cspan data-shortcode=\"commercelinkshortcode\" data-id=\"64eee51d-32cd-47ea-bf45-aca7f8ca7024\" data-raw-url=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.apple.com\u002F\" data-link-shortcode-text=\"Apple\" data-use-monetization=\"true\" data-edition=\"us\"\u003E\u003C\u002Fspan\u003E. Beyond discounts to the retail cost, manufacturers often bundle free wireless earbuds, chargers, and other accessories with your purchase. Since you're purchasing directly from the manufacturer, you'll also have a direct line with their customer support, should any problems with the product arise.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EWhat's the difference between Black Friday and Cyber Monday?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhile Black Friday's online presence has risen exponentially over the past decade, Cyber Monday was the original \"online only\" commerce event. Still, you'll find deals in-store and online for both occasions. In some cases, retailers will list new deals during Cyber Monday, especially for products or inventory that didn't sell as much during Black Friday a few days earlier.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EHow did we choose these Black Friday deals?\u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EZDNET chooses Black Friday deals based on the percentage of discount compared to the original price ($5 off a $20 item is just as good as $250 off a $1,000 item), how significant the discount is compared to pricing history, and whether our experts have tested and recommended the product.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWe also look at deals from a wider scope, considering better alternatives, unique use cases, stock, and existing customer reviews on websites like Amazon, Best Buy, and Reddit. The best deals will save you a decent amount of money while giving you a truly worthwhile product.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Ch3\u003EWhere can you shop the best Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals? \u003C\u002Fh3\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThere's no beating in-person shopping that begins on the eve of Black Friday, and retailers such as Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart have made it a point to reward those who do. However, you can still find similar discounts online -- and with a higher chance of securing a product before it's snatched by someone else.\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBesides big-box retailers, most carriers and e-commerce brands will also host some form of Black Friday and Cyber Monday promotion; simply visit your preferred destinations and see what's available.

It features an adjustable stand with eight configurations, a bumper and rugged shell for added drop protection, a stylus pocket, wireless charging capabilities, and more. The Zugu case currently comes in 9 colors, which is more options than other cases on the market.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhen I tested the Zugu case over the last several weeks alongside other options on this list, it was my favorite iPad Air case. It's functional and practical, providing true security from bumps and drops. I loved using it as a stand, especially while testing several note-taking apps this month. The material feels premium and expensive and features a clean, appealing design.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhile the function is top-notch, my favorite thing about the Zugu case is the color. I have been using the case in the Desert Rose color, and as a true Gen Z corporate girl, I love it. Many companies don't cater to colors outside of black, white, tan, and brown, so the unique color choices are awesome. Although, I wish there were more fun prints and designs.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECurrent customers on the Zugu website said they like the overall protection, functionality, quality, and aesthetic of the Zugu case. Many said the case is of great value and has a premium feel, and one customer even said they wished they'd found Zugu sooner.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhat's even better is that Zugu offers a \u003Ca href="https:\u002F\u002Fwww.zugucase.com\u002Fpages\u002Ffree-ipad-repairs" target="_blank"\u003Eone-time AppleCare+ repair fee\u003C\u002Fa\u003E&nbsp;if your iPad is damaged while in a Zugu case.

In that case, Burga is the more sophisticated, sleek, and cohesive millennial with just a few more years behind them. Like Casetify, Burga is extremely popular for iPhone cases, but it's easy to overlook the brand's other protective offerings for devices like the iPad.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBurga's folio case for the iPad Air combines style and function. It features a spot for stylus storage and Apple Pencil charging, has a hard shell backing and a soft close folio front, can be used as a stand for your iPad, features shock absorption and a raised bezel design, and is overall sleek in profile.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPerhaps the best part of Burga's case is that it comes in a slew of designs, patterns, and colors. It's sophisticated but practical and offers enough secure protection for everyday use.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWhen I tested the Burga case over the last few weeks, I liked its lightweight feel, Apple Pencil storage, folio-style cover, stand configuration, and numerous prints and designs. It's a great basic case to protect from everyday bumps and scratches, but I recommend upgrading to something more secure, such as an Otterbox or even the Zugu case, if you're accident-prone or rougher around the edges when it comes to handling your tech.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003EI also wish the stand options on the case were a bit more comfortable for viewing, though it's a nice add-on to have the option to prop up my iPad up at all while watching a show or video. For the $60 price tag though, I think this a great buy for the features you are getting, especially considering a similar folio case from Apple is now around $80 and ones at Casetify start at $92.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECurrent customers on the Burga website said they like the overall value of the case, with emphasis on the case's design, build, and quality.
