In this week’s segment on KMSB Fox 11, Andy Taylor is in-studio to share with Andrew Capasso some ideas for Powering the Smartphone and allowing functionality at the same time! With the recent storms that swept through Southern Arizona and across the country leaving some of us without power for an extended period, it’s become increasingly important to ensure we can keep our smartphones charged, especially when they can serve as a lifeline during such times.

Most smartphones, whether Android or Apple, now come equipped with longer-lasting batteries. However, when the power grid goes dark, we often rely on these devices for vital updates, news, streaming entertainment, or gaming, which can quickly drain their power. That’s why we highly recommend having a fully charged power bank on hand at all times.

One excellent option is the MyCharge Hub Series. It’s designed to power both USB-C and Apple devices, a feature that’s becoming increasingly essential with the anticipated launch of iPhone 15, likely featuring USB-C connectivity. With its 18W fast charger, you can juice up your phone up to 75% faster compared to conventional 3.3 or 5W chargers. The best part? You don’t need to carry around a bundle of cables; it’s all conveniently integrated into one sleek device. The MyCharge Hub Series is available at a price point of around $100.

Now, let’s talk about a fantastic product feature that smartphone photographers will absolutely love. Capturing video and photos has never been easier than with the Snapgrip from Shiftcam. Almost replicating a DSLR, This ingenious accessory provides a stylish grip for any smartphone, whether it’s an Apple or Android device. If your phone is in a MagSafe case or includes the adapter ring, you can magnetically attach it to this smart grip. With Bluetooth technology, you can pair your device effortlessly.

In camera mode, you can press a button for a quick photo or hold it down for seamless video recording, whether in portrait or landscape orientation. What’s remarkable is that your phone will continue charging while attached to the built-in QI Chargers, effectively serving as a mobile dock. The Snapgrip is priced at approximately $70, and the Shiftcam ecosystem offers a range of additional accessories, including lighting, microphones, and monopods, which can enhance your photography and videography experiences.
