Hyperjuice 100w Gan Charger: USB C Everything - At a Cost

A couple years ago, popular tech YouTuber MKBHD coined the phrase “USB C all the things” Since then, we’ve done our best to live by this motto. With our latest purchase of the hyperjuice 100w gan charger, we’ve finally nailed it - but at what price?

You see, getting a batch of products equipped by USB C has never been the issue. Our Dell XPS 15 charges by USB C, our K30 Pro charges by USB C, our Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 charges by USB C - even some of our truly wireless earbuds charge by USB C. The problem then is instead in the fact that not all USB C cables are made equal.

Some USB cables charge at limited speeds, some are USB C to USB A, some USB C to C, some allow reverse charging, some don’t. How then, can we really “USB C all the things” if none of them work together flawlessly? Enter the hyperjuice 100w gan charger. an expensive, yet highly functional device that fixes this very problem.

Priced at nearly 100 USD, this isn’t a charger that anyone can justify, but by including multiple USB C charging points, with the capacity to charge at 100w, this single brick can completely top all of the products we’ve previously mentioned - yes, even the laptop!

But at 100 dollars, is this tech dream worth living? For the average person, the person who probably would never search for an article like this, probably not. These sorts of consumers probably haven’t consciously gone through the process of USB-C-ing all things, and might have done it by accident. For the tech-conscious person however, one that cares about limiting the amount of bricks they carry with them, and have dreamed of this future, it is very justifiable.

Considering that it will take a few years until USB C devices need more than 100w, your 100 dollar purchase may last you 2-4 years, making it less of an investment than it may originally seem. Furthermore, consider the fact that replacing a lost brick for your phone or computer can easily run you 20-40 dollars, and suddenly buying one 100 dollar brick that you take really good care of doesn’t seem like such a bad decision.

If this idea convinces you, then we must let you know that the hyperjuice 100w gan charger is every bit as good as it sounds. It is sleek looking, portable, powerful, and smart enough to include all the tech you need to ensure you never need another converter when travelling abroad. It is 100 dollars, but now that we’ve managed to “USB C all the things” we can’t see ourselves ever going back.

The Redmi Pad 5G is NOT Coming Anytime Soon

A few days ago popular tech YouTuber Frankie Tech released a video discussing leaked information about the Redmi Pad 5g. Not long after however, this information was debunked - leaving us with no reasonable excitement over this product.

Coming from a reputable Russian website, the debunk states that the specs Frankie Tech listed on his video are simply impossible for Xiaomi's next sub 300 dollar tablet.

Firstly, the inclusion of a Snapdragon 765G, a very expensive chipset and one that isn't used in many products at this time, would simply skyrocket the oroduct’s price.

Secondly, the claim that the smaller varient of the Redmi pad 5g would have 8900 mAh of battery is extremely unrealistic, especially considering that not even Xiaomi's 10 inch Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus had this much juice to drain.

Lastly, and perhaps most importantly in understanding how legitimate a device is, is the fact that Xiaomi has yet to register this concept with the Chinese bureau of communications. This is an important step, as it has not only verified previous phone leaks, but shows the company's interest in a product prior to its launch.

With all of these things considered however, the release of a powerful, more capable Xiaomi tablet would be a good addition to its product line. In a tablet market where the iPad simply dominates, having an equally capable tablet that can also take a jab at PC level productivity, but at a lower price tag, would make for a product we'd love to have.

The BEST Xiaomi Phones in 2020

With the recent release of the Redmi K30 Pro, many have found new reasons to get excited over Xiaomi phones. But with such a massive lineup, it can be difficult to find just the perfect Xiaomi phone. In this article we will list the best Xiaomi phones your money can buy in 2020.

The King: Mi Note 10 Pro

Ever since this device came to market, we have been shocked by the sheer value it provides to the average user. Being the cheapest device on this list, one may find it weird that it is our favourite, but with an efficient processor, a two day battery, and insane camera technology, this phone is hard to beat.

So what are the compromises? Well, it won’t have the latest processor in the market, or the brightest display in the world, but for the average social media savvy phone-user, these compromises should be unnoticeable - and at its price, this is extremely nice to say.

Second Place: K30 Pro

Yes, the device that has been getting a fantastic amount of attention lately. Xiaomi’s latest is a 550 dollar phone that constantly performs like it costs 800 or above - in other words, it is impressive. It only doesn’t make first place because for the average consumer, many of this device’s features may not be fully useful. Sure, a nicer screen is always great, and a faster performer makes everything better, but with the Mi Note 10 Pro, you get 95% of the experience for 100 dollars less.

If you see yourself needing the extra quirks of the K30 Pro however, we recommend the 8GB of RAM + 128GB storage configuration in specific, as it offers just the right balance between horsepower and storage, all while still maintaining itself at a price realm where it differs itself enough from some of Xiaomi’s more expensive devices.

Third: Mi 10 (Non-pro)

That’s right, we are recommending one of Xiaomi’s latest flagship phones - only that we are recommending its less premium brother, the Xiaomi Mi 10. Featuring the same internals, display technology and 108MP main camera sensor, the Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro packs the same delightful flagship experience while saving you a lot of cash.

The areas where you will be missing out are very few and far between, with the camera sensor’s quality being the most notable of them. Nevertheless, the Xiaomi Mi 10 offers more than sufficient camera technology for the average user, and to its own benefit, an even bigger battery than its pro variant, with an extra 280mAh of juice.

Avoidable Fourth: K30 Pro Zoom Edition

In our last place, although still somewhat note-worthy, we have a rather awkward device. The Redmi K30 Pro Zoom Edition, the K30 Pro’s 30x Zoom capable brother, costs the same amount of money as the Mi 10, whilst featuring a better camera, and in our opinion, a better looking design.

With design being subjective of course, the only reason we see someone justifying picking up the K30 Pro Zoom over the Xiaomi Mi 10 is if they really don’t care for extra pixels, and simply enjoy how the K30 Pro is designed. At this point however, we’d argue that the average consumer simply won’t find much use in the Zoom’s closeup capabilities, using it here and there simply for the coolness factor - so why not save some money and just go with the K30 Pro base edition?
