If you have an iPhone XR, iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, iPhone X, iPhone 8, or iPhone 8 Plus, we’re about to let you in on a little secret that’s a total game-changer: your iPhone supports fast charging! It comes with a cheap little 5W wall adapter in the box, but it actually supports charging speeds up to 18W. At 18W, your iPhone will charge from 0% to 80% in less than one our, or you can top up your phone with several hours of battery life in just 15 minutes. If you want to get in on the action though, there are two small purchases you’ll need to make.

First, you need a USB-C wall adapter that supports 18W fast charging. Anker is obviously the best in the business and we recommend the Anker USB C 18W Power Delivery Charger, which is on sale right now for $19.99. Then you just need an Apple Lightning to USB-C Cable to connect to the adapter, and you can also scoop that up on Amazon for $19. Presto, you’re fast charging for just $39!

• Next-Gen Speed: Equipped with a USB-C Power Delivery port, and loaded with 18W of output power to give the latest iPhones a full-speed charge.

Samsung’s big Galaxy S10 event is scheduled to take place exactly one week from today in San Francisco, California. But by the time the company’s February 20th Unpacked press conference finally arrives, we’re fairly confident that there will be absolutely no surprises in store. The Galaxy S10 series of flagship phones have been featured in countless leaks over the past few months, and we already know practically everything there is to know about the devices. Three new flagship phones will be included in Samsung’s first wave of launches: the Galaxy S10, Galaxy S10+, and an entry-level model called the Galaxy S10e that will go head to head with Apple’s iPhone XR.

After a year when Samsung released three of the most boring flagship phones we’ve ever seen — the Galaxy S9, S9+, and Note 9 — the Galaxy S10 series will help Samsung start off 2019 with a bang. How do we know? Because all of the phones’ designs and features have already leaked, and they look fantastic. In fact, just yesterday a massive leak outed every last spec for all three new Galaxy S10 models. They’re going to be sleek, they’re going to be powerful, and they’re going to be a complete reimagining of flagship Samsung phones. Now, a new leak gives us what might be our best look yet at the most exciting new Galaxy S10 phone set to be unveiled next week.

Mpow 059 Bluetooth Headphones Over Ear, Hi-Fi Stereo Wireless Headset, Foldable, Soft Memory-Pr…: $26.99

Here’s what you need to know from the product page:

• IMPRESSIVE SOUND QUALITY IS THE ULTIMATE GOAL & PLEASE NOTE: 1. This item is passive noise isolating, NOT active noise cancellation(ANC), it can’t cancel the noise completely but it won’t drain the battery and damage the sound. As an additional factor of sound quality, it is better than ANC. 2. The closed-back design provides immersive Hi-Fi sound with CSR chip and 40mm driver together. If you care more about Noise Cancellation than Sound Quality, you may consider other alternatives.
• BUILT TO STAY COMFORTABLE: The Memory-protein ear cushion simulate human skin texture, ensuring lasting comfort. The stainless steel slider and softly padded headband allows you to find the perfect fit without constraint and provide excellent durability.
• NEVER POWER OFF, BOTH WIRELESS & WIRED: 1. The wireless mode: Battery update to 20-hr music time/ talking time in a single charge, instead of 13-15 hrs from Oct 1, 2017; 2. The Wired mode: you can also use it as a wired headphone with the provided audio cable so the headphones will never power off.
• FOLDABLE DESIGN WITH A PORTABLE BAG & GENTLE REMINDER : The foldable Headband is not only designed for saving your desk space but for carrying in the provided bag. Gentle Reminder: Depending on your head/ear size/shape, it may be a little tight(feels like“on ear”) for someone to wear which is designed to avoid sound leakage. In case of that and to get both audio and wearing comfort, please take off the headphone every 1-2 hrs to get your ears relax and protect them from muggy environment in use.

Google released a new Google Maps version to beta testers which includes various features the company is considering for the future. Among them, there’s a brand new privacy feature that will let you better manage your location data. Last summer, reports revealed that Google is tracking and logging your location even when you think the feature is disabled, and it uses various apps to do it, not just Google Maps. That’s the kind of privacy breaching behavior the EU might punish with the help of record fines. So seeing Google try to improve user privacy in the main Google app that requires access to your location is an excellent step towards fixing things.

While light-hearted easter eggs certainly don’t help Tesla sell more cars, they certainly don’t hurt from a branding perspective. Over the past few years, Tesla easter eggs have only gotten better, more ambitious, and far more creative. In recent memory, Tesla has introduced any number of whimsical software surprises for Tesla owners, including a ‘Santa Mode’ and a funky holiday-themed easter egg that transformed the Model X into a music-playing dance machine.

The latest easter egg from Tesla involves a number of reference to Back to the Future, the 80s movie classic starring Michael J. Fox. While some of Tesla’s easter eggs are easy to find, this one was hidden a little bit better than most. The 80s-themed surprise was initially posted to Reddit after a Model X owner stumbled upon it a few days ago.

Google has another investigation on its hands from a national regulator in one of the biggest smartphone markets in the world — an investigation along the same lines of the anti-competitive probe the search giant faced in Europe over its Android operating system that led to a $5 billion fine last year.

This time, the market is India, where the Competition Commission of India has been working since late summer on an investigation into whether Google is anti-competitive in its handling of Android and whether it’s inappropriately using its market dominance to squeeze out rivals.
