A power strip is probably the most overlooked piece of eletronics most of us have on our desk – usually hidden away because, well, it’s “just a power strip.” But what if there was a way to turn this dull accessory into a centerpiece instead of an eyesore? Genki, known for its accessories and gaming gear, has done exactly that with the Moonbase. I’ve been using Genki’s fancy new power strip as a replacement to my basic Belkin surge protector for a few weeks now to see how it stacks up. Hit the jump for more details and a closer look.

We’ve tested a bunch of chargers here at 9to5Toys, and while there are plenty of good ones that we continue to recommend, most of them fall short somewhere or the other – be it when it comes to the number of devices it can charge or the overall output it can deliver simultaneously.

This particular charger has been sitting on my desk as my main charger, topping off everything from my iPhone, AirPods, MacBook Air, and even my other everyday essentials like mouse and DualSense controller.

MagSafe wallets are a great alternative to traditional wallets, especially if you prefer to travel light with just a couple of cards and little to no cash. I personally love the convenience – they let me leave my regular wallet behind and carry one less item every time I step out. Having said that, I’m yet to find the one that checks all the right boxes for me. Most MagSafe wallets I’ve tried either don’t have enough space and barely fit one or two cards, or they don’t feel sturdy enough to keep my cards securely in place. The one we’re checking out here from SUPCASE seem to get a lot of things right while also adding some notable extras. Let’s dive in and see what it’s like to use one of these every day.

Apple’s updated MagSafe charger, introduced alongside the iPhone 16 lineup last year, is currently the only magnetic wireless charger capable of delivering up to 25W of power.

Just a little over a month after the official announcement, we now have an idea of how much the upcoming Xbox-branded ROG Ally handheld consoles may cost. As highlighted in a new report, it appears as though Google Search pulled some results from ASUS’ website and listed the Xbox Ally X and Ally at €899 and €599, respectively. You are looking at the European prices, though they give us a good understanding of how much they could cost in the U.S. market as well. Hit the jump for more details.

As part of its wider sale on Samsung monitors, Woot is offering the brand’s Odyssey OLED G8 4K UHD 240Hz gaming monitor down at $799.99 Prime shipped (a $6 delivery fee will apply otherwise). This is regularly a $,1300 model which is currently fetching its full price directly at Samsung and comes with a FREE Odyssey 24-inch FHD monitor worth $200. Woot’s offer may not get you that free monitor, but it shaves a solid $500 off this model’s usual going rate, landing it $75 below its previous all-time low and our mention last month. This is the lowest price we have tracked for this gaming monitor to date, and you can learn more about it below.

One of the biggest issues I often run into with Hall effect gaming keyboards is that they typically fall short when it comes to typing experience outside of gaming. The few that do get it right – or at least come close – like the Glorious GMMK 3 Pro HE, usually cost over $300. As someone who enjoys building and tweaking mechanical keyboards as a hobby, I found myself constantly switching between standard mechanical keyboards for typing and Hall effect models for gaming. That changed when I got my hands on the Luminkey Magger68 Pro HE. Built by a brand known for offering a wide range of layouts and catering to enthusiasts with “high-end” custom boards, the Magger68 strikes that rare balance, at least for me. It’s not only great for typing but also includes all the key magnetic keyboard features like customizable actuation points. I’ve been using it as my main keyboard for both work and gaming over the past few weeks, and in this review, I’ll break down whether it’s worth considering for your setup. Hit the jump for a closer look.

UGREEN offers a wide range of MagSafe chargers, but the 3-in-1 MagFlow charger we’re looking at today stands out as one of the more compact and travel-friendly options.

I’ve recently swapped out UGREEN’s Uno Qi2 15W 2-in-1 charger for this model, and it’s been a great upgrade for my desk — especially since it’s more compact and supports an extra device. Dive in below for my hands-on impressions of the UGREEN 15W 3-in-1 MagFlow charger.

One of the more noticeable omissions on the Switch 2 is the lack of Hall effect sticks on its Joy-Cons. The same goes for Nintendo’s new Pro Controller for the Switch 2, which also doesn’t appear to include Hall effect sticks – at least there are now mentions of it on the official site. If you’re looking for a more durable and drift-resistant alternative, PowerA’s new Advantage Wired Controller is definitely worth considering.

I recently went hands-on with UGREEN’s FineTrack Smart Finder which is a reliable AirTag alternative I still use daily to keep track of my car keys and get notifications if/when I leave it behind. While its compact design works well for keys, backpacks, and travel luggage, it’s too thick for a wallet. So when the folks over at UGREEN reached out asking if I wanted to test their FineTrack Slim wallet tracker, I was immediately intrigued. At 1.7mm thick, it’s perfect for keeping in your wallet without making it feel bulky. I’ve been using it for a while now and it’s time to tell you if it’s worth the price.
