3 Output Cables, But 6 outputs
What makes this charger quite unique is its clever design that stores three output cables and one input cable inside the long, thin power bank. This means you don't need to carry an entangled mess of wires with you to charge your devices. No matter if you own an iPhone, Samsung, Pixel or other Micro USB or USB-C devices, this one charger suits them all. The attached cables are intelligently designed to fit any number of devices, so you can charge your tablet, phone, or other device without having to find the right cable or being scared you'll leave one behind.
The charger is not done with being useful—it's impressively competent. With three channels and six output ports, it can charge six devices simultaneously which is perfect for multi-device owners or families with many devices to have charged on the road. The three inputs include an internal recharging cable, Micro USB port, and USB-C port, giving you several avenues to charge the power bank itself.
The charger is also incredibly super slim and lightweight: At only just under six inches long and half a pound, it's no larger than a lighter or a small smart phone and easily fits in your bag or even a large pocket. A digital LED display shows the amount of battery life left with precision, you don't have to estimate and you know precisely when it's getting low and needs recharging.
Compatibility is also an extremely durable component of this portable charger. It is extremely compatible with all of the most popular phones and tablets out right now, including all the latest iPhone 11/12/13/14/15 line (and iPads), Samsung Galaxy S20-S25 / Z Flip-Fold Series, Google Pixel series and almost all other Android devices.

Amazon's move may take down Instacart and consumers could benefit
If a service like Instacart or Same Day Amazon had existed when my kids were young, life would have been so, so much easier. There would have been no stress upon realizing I was out of milk, bread, or just about any other essential, because I could have had the items delivered to my house or to my car when I pulled up to the grocery store. Instead, when I was low on needed groceries, it meant loading the kids into the car and hauling them to the store. Ugh. Don't miss the move: SIGN UP for TheStreet's FREE Daily newsletter Now my kids drive themselves to get whatever food they need, so that stress is gone. And when I don't have time to get to the store, I just order groceries on Instacart. Honestly, it's magic. At first I was skeptical that the Instacart shopper would choose produce that would be up to my standards, but I'd give the service a solid "A" so far. For the last couple of years I've generally picked up the groceries at my local grocer but have also had orders delivered. Delivery is quickly becoming my preference because, convenience. Image source:Now, Amazon is stepping up its grocery game, too, offering same-day delivery of fresh groceries to customers in more than 1,000 U.S. cities and towns, with plans to expand to over 2,300 municipalities by the end of the year. For consumers, the move offers a new level of convenience in online grocery shopping - and it signals a potential shake-up in the industry. Same-day delivery has long been a key differentiator in e-commerce, but it has taken decades to become widespread. Online grocery delivery first emerged in the late 1990s with services like Webvan and Peapod, which offered home delivery but faced high costs and logistical challenges that limited adoption. More retail: Costco quietly gives Apple buyers better deals and perks$4 Trader Joe's bags are going viral (again), so grab one while you canStarbucks' latest closure is another hit for an embattled city Plus, those options were limited to certain cities. In the 2010s, as smartphones and apps became ubiquitous, major retailers such as Walmart, Kroger, and Target began offering delivery and curbside pickup, and third-party services like Instacart expanded rapidly. Amazon's acquisition of Whole Foods in 2017 further accelerated growth, combining physical stores with online ordering. Then came the pandemic. Lockdowns and social distancing triggered an explosion in online grocery shopping - I'm sure I'm not the only one who had to wait in line to get into my local Trader Joe's or Raley's because the stores limited the number of people who could be in the store at any one time. From 2020 to 2022, contactless delivery became a necessity for millions of households, pushing same-day and next-day grocery delivery into the mainstream. Today Amazon, Walmart, Instacart, Kroger, and DoorDash all offer fast, reliable delivery of both perishable and nonperishable items, making convenience a central focus of the grocery market. Related: Walmart gives employees a generous new perk The recent announcement from Amazon, bringing same-day delivery of fresh groceries, is a major milestone in this trend. Customers can now order items such as produce, meat, dairy, and pantry staples and receive them within hours. For busy households or those looking to minimize trips to the store, the service is a godsend. According to the Amazon announcement: Instacart's pricing structure is a little more complicated, since the cost varies depending on whether you're a member. Membership costs $99 per year or $9.99 monthly. Members get free delivery on orders over $35 and reduced service fees. The Amazon announcement sent ripples through the stock market. Instacart built its business around grocery delivery and saw its shares drop more than 11% the day Amazon made the news. Other grocery and delivery companies - including Kroger, Walmart, Albertsons, Uber, and DoorDash - experienced smaller declines, all under 5%. The market reaction highlights how Amazon's expansion could reshape the grocery delivery landscape. Instacart has been working to evolve beyond its original model, positioning itself as an omnichannel technology provider and retail media network. Features like "smart carts" help grocers and advertisers connect with shoppers online and in-store. Still, the company relies heavily on grocery delivery, making it vulnerable to Amazon's growing e-commerce reach. For consumers, the expansion is largely positive. The competition should improve service times could offer potential cost savings. Shoppers may see new promotions, loyalty perks, and technology-driven conveniences such as improved delivery tracking and personalized shopping experiences. Amazon's same-day grocery delivery expansion builds on a decades-long evolution of online grocery shopping, offering unprecedented convenience and faster access to fresh foods. At the same time, it intensifies competition across the sector, signaling a rapidly changing market where only the most agile players will thrive.

Sam Altman's latest delusional AI prediction doesn't pass the test
Artificial intelligence has come a long way since OpenAI introduced the world to ChatGPT 3.5 in late 2022. The release of the large language model sets the stage for an AI revolution that the world is still trying to understand. AI has many more uses than running large language models (LLMs), and the business world is already using the advanced technology to transform e-commerce (like when Amazon uses AI to recommend products), automotive navigation (AI underpins the autonomous technology most car companies use), robotics, and image generation. Related: Tesla's biggest strength has suddenly become a liability ChatGPT, specifically, has been especially disruptive to education. Enterprising students have used ChatGPT to enhance their studies and reduce research time, while other students have just used the technology to cheat. But OpenAI co-founder Sam Altman says children born today will never be able to surpass the "intelligence" of his products. Sam Altman believes we are living in a technological Stone Age that will have future generations snickering at how bad we had it. "A kid born today will never be smarter than AI, ever. And a kid born today, by the time that kid kind of understands the way the world works, will just always be used to an incredibly fast rate of things improving and discovering new science," Altman said in a recent interview floating around on social media. Related: Economists send harsh message to White House over BLS nominee "They will never know any other world. It will seem totally natural. It will seem unthinkable and stone-age-like that we used to use computers or phones or any kind of technology that was not way smarter than we were." The citizens of his mythical future will eventually pity us lowly non-AI users. "We will think like, 'how bad those people of the 2020s had it,'" Altman added. The beauty of Altman's prediction is that he can be proven right in multiple ways. The tech could become so advanced and helpful that humans literally can't live without it, or children could become so slavish to LLMs like ChatGPT in the future that they become reliant on it to perform the simplest tasks. Last year, Turnitin's AI detection tool scanned over 200 million writing assignments and detected AI use in one in 10 assignments. However, only three out of every 100 assignments were primarily generated by AI. "We hit a steady state, and it hasn't changed dramatically since then," said Turnitin Chief Product Officer Annie Chechitelli. "There are students who are leaning on AI too much. But it's not pervasive. It wasn't this, 'The sky is falling.'" But Altman expects AI adoption to only increase in the near future, so the number of students using the tech to cheat will likely also increase. Harvard Graduate School of Education recently published a report on the use of AI by teens and young adult students. When asked what they wanted adults to know about AI, the kids said that AI is not just used to cheat, but is also helpful for finding answers to unasked questions. But 41% of the kids today (not the ones in Altman's future) said they are "acutely aware" of the potential issues with generative AI. "Across demographics, those surveyed also expressed fears about AI's impact on their future job markets, especially the creative pursuits they mentioned above. They also highlighted potential privacy concerns, and generative AI's use to create and spread misinformation and disinformation," the report said. So it appears Sam Altman and company have some work to do to create the future they seem to believe is inevitable.

iPhone 17 release date rumors — this could be the full schedule
Summer's winding down, and that means Apple's big annual keynote is just around the corner, promising exciting new announcements about the iPhone 17 line-up, new Apple Watches, and more. While Apple hasn't revealed the rollout's full schedule yet, the rhythm of iPhone launches feels as predictable as the turning leaves. If history serves, we have a pretty good guess when you'll be able to get your hands on a shiny new iPhone 17. Rumors suggest Apple will unveil its major fall product line-ups on September 9. If history serves, we expect the event to take place at the company's Cupertino campus, where the iPhone 17 series will be revealed. Notably, Apple's rumored to shake up the iPhone lineup this time around by replacing the Plus model with the super-thin iPhone 17 Air. In addition to the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro, we expect Apple to debut the Apple Watch Series 11 and possibly the Apple Watch Ultra 3. A new version of the AirPods Pro, an updated Apple TV 4K, and the long-awaited smart home hub HomePod 3 could also make an appearance. Apple event announcement date 8 a.m. PT / 11 a.m. ET on August 26 iPhone 17 launch event September 9 iPhone 17, Air, and Pro available for pre-order September 12 iOS 26 release date September 15/16 iPhone 17, Air, and Pro on sale September 19 Apple's yet to confirm the keynote's official date, but trusted voices like Bloomberg's Mark Gurman and Forbes suggest we should hear more on that by Tuesday, August 26. That's also when invites should start rolling out via email to select members of the press. Looking at the time tables of previous iPhone generations, we're likely to see Apple open pre-orders for the iPhone 17 a few days later. Apple tends to roll out pre-orders on the Friday after the initial announcement, with sales going live the Friday after that. So if history serves, the iPhone 17 could go on sale on Friday, September 19. As for iOS 26, the latest update expected to ship with the iPhone 17, that's easy to pin down as well. Last year, Apple pushed out iOS 18 on September 16, exactly one week after its annual keynote and four days before the iPhone 16 series went on sale. If Apple follows the same pattern, we can expect iOS 26 to arrive on either Monday, September 15, or Tuesday, September 16. We don't have long to wait until we learn more. All signs point to Apple's iPhone 17 launch event being just a few short weeks away. Follow Tom's Guide on Google News to get our up-to-date news, how-tos, and reviews in your feeds.
