He’s got the skills for it — he put Linux on a PlayStation 4, for example. But the developer wants assistance from the public bringing the operating system to Macs running the new M1 processor. Not technical help, but financial contributions.
RAVpower PD 30W USB-C Charger with Lightning Cable can be the wall charger that iPhone 12 users need. It includes USB-C and USB-A ports, and fold-down electrical prongs. And it juices up iOS handsets as fast as possible — far quicker than Apple’s old 5W chargers. Plus, it even comes with a charging cable for use with older iPhones.
Read on for the results of my real-world testing of the wall charger and cable combo.

No change was as dramatic as ending the rules that prevented broadband service providers from slowing down the internet traffic of rival companies.
The HiRise Wireless manages a rare feat: it’s both useful and attractive. This charger holds your iPhone up at an angle where the screen can be easily seen.

A concept artist imagines Apple taking the 2021 handset in a very different direction, with a screen that wraps around the sides, top and bottom.
Watch their iPhone 13 concept video now to see how it would look.

After real-world testing, here’s how this multiport adapter stands up.
The iPhone 12 Pro starts at $999, but the components for this high-end smartphone cost less than half the selling price. Market researchers disassembled Apple’s latest top-tier handset to ascertain its parts cost.

A new website could become the go-to guide to which applications are compatible with Macs running on Apple Silicon chips.
