To be fair, the eufy products are junk anyway.
Their batteries are amazing and definitely will stick to them for their batteries. Haven't found a better alternative yet!

Yeah. It sucks because They were known for their quality products.
I don't think they could win me back ever after the Eufy thing though.

That article is really misleading.
> The encryption scheme on the URLs also seemed to lack sophistication; as the same researcher told Ars, it took only 65,535 combinations to brute-force,
It only takes 65,535 guesses if you already know the serial number, which is a 16-digit non-sequential alphanumeric string that would take longer than the age of the universe to guess.

You buy Anker stuff offline? Where? All of mine was bought through Amazon, and you can look up or PDF the order form for those

And I think anker sells mostly online on Amazon. I don't remember ever seeing an anker product on physical retail stores. Not that it doesn't exist, but it isn't common.

That's what I thought. Arm SOC have no place for an upgrade / modularity, while mac pro is marketed as an upgradable system. I'd bet you won't even be able to add unified ram.

I used to use an Anker USB hub until it got extremely hot out of nowhere and fried my iPhone. I’m done with them lol

I contacted anker support and they have issued a full refund (waiting for it to complete) they also suggested the 537 as a replacement and offered me a 20% discount.
It's about 150g heavier, slightly more capacity and has a higher output.

Some other companies already have foldables that are considerably better than the Samsung flip. Oppo find n2 flip for example, better fold mechanics, bigger battery, costs less but IMHO still too costly for what it does.

That's pretty ridiculous to bin off the entire android platform because he brought an obvious experimental product from the "worst" manufacturer android has to offer...

Off the top of my head, we purchased a PowerBank 500 Fusion at BestBuy in 2018, PowerCore 10000 in July 2022 at Walmart, both physically in the brick and mortar stores.
Neither had the whole gamut of Anker’s offerings, but it was nice being able to grab it off the shelf
