MacRumors Giveaway: Win a USB-C Wireless Charging Dock for AirPods From Satechi

I don't want to argue with you, but FYI: a short (20 cm) USB-C to Lightning cable is around $2 on AliEx. Buy a few and place them in your travel bags or macbook sleeve.
I have the Satechi watch charger and it’s magnetic. It’s not super strong but pulls it centered when charging and keeps it from getting knocked off.
This charger looks exactly the same so I would think it has to be magnetic also.
@MacRumors ... but the real question is ...
What is that Coffee in the near perfectly-like-Apple product marketing with the iPads connected to the Satechi product? Looks delicious.

I saw it was USB-C so I assumed it was for the AirPods Pro since they come with a USB-C cable. I entered the giveaway and then realized it was for the regular AirPods. I guess I could sell it if I win. 😉
This and Satechi's Apple Watch charger are 2 of the worst products they've made. $30 for a glorified charging brick that takes up an entire side of your MacBook's ports. I get it, it looks cool and lets you keep your devices charging right at your workstation, but that's about as useful as it gets. Minimizes all other utility the ports can deliver. Hard pass.
I’m going blind, barely able to tell if the lights are on with one of my eyes, and the other where reading is extremely difficult. Because of that, standardized cables, and wireless charging are fantastic helps. short of that, docking stations and fixed places are my routine. All that considered, i would love to have things like this where alignment is easy by feel.
My end goal though is to use custom cases and magnets to guide alignment and placement with wireless wireless charging pads. Ive got a few fun prototypes I’ve made with a glowforge to Recess and then glue magnets, and my hope is to adapt the rest of my world so i can retain a degree of independence.

The matcha latte was the only thing I could focus on, on those pics. I'd give them creds for that temptation
Actually it is surprisingly tasty, awakening and smooth to the taste. The green colour is because the green tea leaves that are the origin of the drink, are covered during their development before harvesting. The result is that the plants pump extra chlorophyll in the leaves, to optimise photosynthesis of the little light available. These tea leaves as opposed to other teas are then dried and ground to the finest powder, and consumed totally rather than it just infusing your drink. This drink gives a boost of anti-oxidants and cafeine, all in within the experience of a very refined taste, if made properly. If made by an amateur, you would get a bitter drink, and it would indeed not be very appetising, tho...
