Cords are *so* 1882. No, literally — that’s the year Thomas Edison invented the first known power distribution system. (The more you know.) 

With recent developments in Qi technology, which uses electromagnetic induction to transfer energy, supported smartphones can now be charged wirelessly. No longer must our precious devices be tethered down by cords; these days, you can just place your phone on a wireless charging mat or pad to give it a thorough juicing-up. (Of course, you do have to plug in the charger itself.)

If you’re in the market for a new charger that’ll work with your Qi-compatible device, well, lucky you: You have the luxury of choosing from lots of different models. Despite it not being Black Friday or President’s Day or any other holiday that typically brings about massive sales, these chargers are all currently discounted. Plus, you can lower their prices 15% further by entering the code SEMIANNUAL at checkout.  Read more…

Forget selfie sticks. There’s now a more efficient and socially acceptable way of taking photos, and it comes in the form of Picbot. It’s a motorized smartphone mount that utilizes face tracking technology to help you capture next-level pictures and videos — or finally live out your dreams of becoming a YouTube sensation.

Successfully funded on Kickstarter, Picbot puts an end to all your smartphone photography and videography dilemmas. It has built-in facial tracking software and 360-degree auto-rotation, which makes it capable of following your face even when you’re in motion, allowing you to get the perfect exposure every single time.
