Save 41% on Anker’s 250W 6-port GaN charger, a desk upgrade that replaces a pile of bricks
Amazon
If your desk is a mess of power bricks, cables, and “where’s the charger?” panic, this is the kind of deal that actually fixes a daily annoyance. The Anker Prime 250W GaN Prime 6-port USB-C charging station is down to $99.99 (was $169.99), saving you $70 at 41% off. At full price, it’s a premium convenience buy. At $99.99, it becomes a practical way to consolidate charging for a laptop, tablet, phone, and accessories in one clean setup.
What you’re getting
This is a 250W GaN charging station with six ports, designed to power multiple devices at once without juggling separate chargers. It includes a 2.26-inch LCD display that shows charging info at a glance, plus a smart control dial so you can quickly adjust settings and manage power distribution without guessing.
The whole point is “one hub for everything.” It’s built for people who charge a laptop and several USB-C devices daily, or anyone who shares a charging station at home with multiple people. It’s also useful for travel prep: you can keep one charger on the desk and stop unplugging your laptop brick every time you need to top off something else.
Why it’s worth it
The value here is time saved and clutter removed. When you have multiple devices, charging stops being one task and turns into a constant background hassle. A single high-output station simplifies that. The 250W ceiling gives you headroom for higher-draw devices, while the multi-port design keeps everything in one place.
This deal is also appealing because it drops a premium model into a “buy it and you’ll actually use it daily” price range. If you’ve ever bought a cheap multi-port charger and felt like it got hot, slowed down, or didn’t handle multiple devices well, this is the kind of upgrade that makes charging feel boring again—in a good way.
The bottom line
At $99.99, this is a strong buy if you want one reliable charging hub for a laptop plus multiple USB-C devices, and you’re tired of cable and brick clutter. Skip it if you only charge one or two devices and a single 65W charger already covers your needs.

Samsung’s Galaxy S28 series could be the first to feature an in-house GPU
Samsung reportedly plans to debut its custom GPU with the Exynos 2800.
Samsung is betting big on its in-house Exynos SoCs, with reports suggesting that the upcoming Galaxy S26 series will feature the recently released Exynos 2600 chipset. Built on a 2nm manufacturing process, the chip promises notable performance and efficiency gains thanks to a redesigned 10-core CPU, a new Xclipse 960 GPU, and an upgraded built-in NPU. But Samsung appears to have even bigger upgrades planned for future Exynos SoCs.
According to a fresh report from Hankyung (via Android Authority), Samsung has developed its own GPU architecture and could debut it with the Exynos 2800 in 2027. This means the Galaxy S28 series could be the first lineup to feature a custom Samsung GPU.
Samsung’s next budget Galaxy phone could bring 5G and Android 16 at an affordable price
Early listings and leaked renders reveal Samsung’s Galaxy A07 5G, a no-nonsense budget phone that prioritizes modern software, 5G, and practical design over flashy upgrades.
The successor to one of Samsung’s most popular lineups, the affordable Galaxy A series, is starting to step out of the shadows. Dubbed the Galaxy A07 5G, the handset has broken cover, thanks to a Google Play Console listing (via TheTechOutlook), which is among the first dominoes to fall before an Android phone launches.
Per the listing, the smartphone carries the model number SM-A076B, confirming that it is indeed the purported Galaxy A07 5G. The listing also reveals other crucial details about the smartphone, including 8GB of RAM and a MediaTek Dimensity chipset with two performance cores clocked at 2.40 GHz (believed to be the Dimensity 6300 SoC).
I tried a truly great small phone, and I hope Samsung and Apple pay attention
Vivo X300 is one of the most rewarding palm-friendly phones out there. It’s too bad the US marked missed such a gem.
Ever since I got my first smartphone, and eventually made my way into tech journalism, I’ve had a soft spot for palm-friendly devices. But finding one that is practically rewarding has been pretty challenging due to technical constraints or just bad choices.
The OnePlus 13s came pretty close, but the lack of an ultrawide sensor and poor thermals proved to be a big hiccup. The Samsung Galaxy S25 was a fairly well-rounded option, but plagued by bad battery life, worse thermals, and unsatisfactory camera performance for the price. As a result, I have always returned to the vanilla iPhone, or its Pro sibling, as my daily driver.
