It’s official Apple Certified Refurbished Store time again, and we are back again with a closer look at the gear we have our eyes on. This is not a bunch of Macs covered in scratches that fell off a truck somewhere and shilled on eBay at a discount, we are talking about Apple’s “rigorous refurbishment process” and the same 1-year Apple warranty you get on brand new units, just at a lower price.

Apple will launch the iPhone 18 Pro soon, and a new report indicates its price might not be as high as several analysts have suggested. Here are the details.

My biggest issue when I go back and forth between a MagSafe wallet and a traditional wallet is that a lot of MagSafe wallets are really just card slots. I still carry cash and like my driver’s license to be in a clear window. The TUCCH PU Leather Mag Wallet does something different that most MagSafe wallets. It actually folds shut like a traditional fold wallet with a clear ID/driver’s license window.

In recent years, Macs had been getting more and more affordable. Cheaper starting points, more memory and storage per dollar, and the introduction of MacBook Neo. For the first time, Apple had started to become one of the best values on the market.

Unfortunately, Apple just drastically increased its prices because of the ongoing memory shortage. Macs aren’t as appealing as they were a few weeks ago, that said, there’s still some decent deals out there – and if you’re in need of a new computer, I’d still say todays Macs are a good value against the rest of the computing market.

Recently, Mophie debuted four new power banks for the iPhone. They slide nicely into your pocket, come in two finishes, offer built-in cables, and pack 5000mAh or 10000mAh of capacity. They’re by no means the smallest battery banks on the market, though they hit a price point that makes them worthwhile.
