We have all certainly experienced this dreadful feeling at some point: accidentally catching your iPhone or Android’s charging cord with your foot, sending your device helplessly spinning across the room until it strikes the floor. Apple has long had MagSafe technology as a part of its laptop power supplies, although it may be on its way out, but it has yet to find its way to iPhone or iPad. The same is true of Android devices, we’ve come so far and yet our phones are easily turned into sling shots with an accidental trip of the cord.
Enter ZNAPS. A new Kickstarter project that is bringing the same concept of MagSafe to any Lightning or microUSB charging cable. Based on the response from the Kickstarter community thus far, there are a lot of users that desire this type of connectivity.

But from now through this weekend, developer Chair is celebrating FREEdom by offering it for completely free once again.

The iPhone 6 has a stunning display and is one of the leaders in picture quality. But for prosumers and professionals that are looking for more, their options are generally limited. Most would resign to carrying around a large DSLR with extra lenses and storage in addition to an iPhone, perhaps a MacBook or other photography necessities. Although we have seen other add-ons that provide more lenses or bulky cameras, no company has really solved this dilemma.
A new product from DxO is attempting to combine high-end photography with the power and Retina display of the iPhone 6 to create the ultimate photography solution. By leveraging the Lightning port on the iPhone, the DxO One integrates with device and display to create a markedly better solution that delivers RAW photos and a trove of settings.
Much like other Apple product releases, the Apple Watch has seen a flood of accessories, cases, docks and other charging solutions. Now that the dust is beginning to settle, manufacturers can identify holes in the accessory market and deliver new innovations to solve various needs.
Amongst all the docks for Apple Watch, there have been few offerings that solve the dilemma of charging both timepiece and iPhone at the same time. After releasing a popular dock for iPhone 6 last fall, Designed by Many is taking to Kickstarter with a new dual iPhone and Apple Watch solution.
Omaker via Amazon also offers its 5200mAh Ultra Portable Rubberized Battery Charger with Flashlight for $16.99. But you can use the coupon code OMAKER15 to drop the price down to only $7.99 Prime shipped. That’s $9 off the already low sale price and the lowest we can find for it. This Omaker can fully charge the iPhone 6 two times and 4 LED indicators show the charging status and battery level. It was rated with 4.7/5 stars from Amazon customers and received great reviews.
If you don’t need as many ports or as much power, check out this RAVPower 36W 4-port charger for only $9 Prime shipped.
Overall this charger pushes 36W and 7.2A to four USB Ports. Two of the ports offer 2.4A of juice to quickly charge power-hungry devices like iPads. Baked-in iSmart technology allows the charger to detect and deliver the fastest (and safest!) possible charge. Rated a near-perfect 4.8 out of 5 stars from 552 Amazon reviewers.
With four USB charging ports you’re probably going to want to pick up some extra cables. AmazonBasics 3-ft Lightning Cables are just $7.99 and a 3-pack of 3-ft Anker microUSB (for Android, BT speakers, etc) cables is $6.99.
Apple has now officially selected Slayin as the new Free App of the Week.

After seeing a number of iPhone 6/Plus OtterBox cases go on sale at Amazon late last week, today we spotted the iPhone 6 Plus Defender Series case in black for $32.99. It ships free for Prime members (free trial) or on orders of $35 or more. That’s nearly 50% off the original $60 price tag, a few cents under the lowest Amazon has offered it for and the best price we can find on the 6 Plus Defender in black.
Designed specifically to keep your 6 Plus safe and sound, it features 3-layer polycarbonate shell protection and can withstand “drops, bumps and shock”. The Defender has a built-in screen protector, port covers to keep debris and dust out while still being accessible, and comes with a belt holster that doubles as a kickstand. This model has a 4.1/5 star rating from over 1,700 Amazon customers.
