Satechi, known for its line of accessories designed for Apple devices, today announced the launch of a trio of USB-C chargers that are designed for use with iPads, Macs, iPhones, and more.
The 66W 3-Port USB-C GaN Wall Charger is priced at $54.99, has a foldable plug, and offers three USB-C ports with output combinations of 65W, 30W/30W, 45W/20W, 30W/18W/18W, adding up to 66W total. This model is designed to charge a MacBook Air while also fast charging an iPhone and charging up an iPad at full speed.
Satechi's 100W USB-C PD Wall Charger, priced at $69.99, has a single USB-C port that's able to charge at up to 100W, as the name suggests.
The 108W 3-Port USB-C GaN Wall Charger also features three ports to work with, but it supports higher watt devices. It can charge with a single port at 100W, or in the following combinations: 60W/45W, 88W/20W, 45W/30W/30W, 58W/30W/20W, or 65W/20W/20W. It's available for $74.99. The 108W charger can charge a 13-inch MacBook Pro, an iPhone, and an iPad at the same time, and it's high-powered enough to work with the 15-inch MacBook Pro models.
All three of the new chargers feature Gallium Nitride or GaN technology, which is designed to keep them small and compact. Satechi says they're all also CE certified and will charge devices safely and efficiently.
The three new chargers can be purchased from the Satechi website or from Amazon.com. Customers can get a 15 percent discount from July 22 to July 31 with promo code GANFAST15.

Apple's iPhone development roadmap runs several years into the future and the company is continually working with suppliers on several successive iPhone models simultaneously, which is why we often get rumored features months ahead of launch. The iPhone 17 series is no different, and we already have a good idea of what to expect from Apple's 2025 smartphone lineup.

Apple is preparing a "bold" new iPhone Pro model for the iPhone's 20th anniversary in 2027, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. As part of what's being described as a "major shake-up," Apple is said to be developing a design that makes more extensive use of glass – and this could point directly to the display itself.
Here's the case for Apple releasing a truly all-screen iPhone with no...

This week saw rumor updates on the iPhone 17 Pro and next-generation Vision Pro, while a minor iOS 18.4.1 update delivered not just security fixes but also a fix for some CarPlay issues.
We also looked ahead at what else is in Apple's pipeline for the rest of 2025 and even the 20th-anniversary iPhone coming in 2027, so read on below for all the details on these stories and more!

Apple seeded the third beta of iOS 18.5 to developers today, and so far the software update includes only a few minor changes.
The changes are in the Mail and Settings apps.
In the Mail app, you can now easily turn off contact photos directly within the app, by tapping on the circle with three dots in the top-right corner.

I love the idea of these small do-it-all chargers but here's the unfortunate reality I've discovered:
The fact that these don't support a range of voltages across all ports is annoying. The cognitive load of figuring out which port to use for what, and what devices I can plug in and still get fast charging on is just a drag. At least on the baseus model I have, I will plug in my Apple Watch and iPhone and the power negotiation logic boots the watch or phone out of charging. Nothing worse than coming back to your phone and finding out you just spent an hour with it plugged in NOT charging.
With higher draw devices you'll get slow charging or no charging on a device and you won't necessarily know how quickly things are charging. Granted the capacity if of course limited when you split it across many devices but it's hard to manage that while traveling when you need, say, to top up your phone and iPad while working on your laptop.
For this reason I still just prefer to carry the proper apple chargers for all of my devices and supplement with a GAN charger.
I hope in the future they can improve circuitry and logic to get more wattage distributed to ANY combination of ports, and work out the switching and negotiation bugs (baseus)
That diagram is badly wrong. The UK power plug looks nothing like that. I suspect that 'Type D' plug with three round pins is for India, four thousand miles away. UK plug is Type G with three rectangular pins.
