With so many battery packs out there in various shapes, colors, and capacities, there’s almost no end to the choices available. But, on the upside, it makes for a greater range of personalization. It’s easier than ever to accessorize with a certain look that you want to portray. So if you happen to be a huge fan of Apple’s design and looks, this one battery pack in particular may catch your eye. Design The LuguLake 4200mAh Qi battery pack sports an overall look that is very complimentary to Apple devices. A shade of white underneath a clear resin coating tops a smooth aluminum frame with beveled edges. Anyone giving it the slightest of glances could easily mistake it for a smartphone, even though it’s a touch thicker than most of the latest ones.  Battery. Cable. Done. I dig the shape, and I love the precise machining of the aluminum. And considering that this battery pack is Qi-enabled for wireless device charging, the resin top is a smart choice.

Ah, the #selfie. If there’s a more culturally relevant Millennial invention, I have yet to find it. The selfie changed the game, down to the very fundamentals of humanity. CES 2015 was the land of bifurcated tech gurus. One half patrolled the show floor with a selfie stick taking awesome, wide-angle shots of themselves in front of the newest and coolest products, and the other half pointed and called them stupid while they begged passersby to take a photo of them standing by a drone. #WhosStupidNow I recently became a proud member of the Selfie Stick community, having fallen into possession of a Solo Stick. This particular model is a Bluetooth connected stick that grips the phone with an easy-to-use clamp. You simply turn it on, slide in your phone, and start taking photos….
