The launch of Samsung’s Galaxy S24 series is fast approaching, and OnePlus is no doubt hoping to hop on the buzz train as upgrade season begins. The newly announced one plus 12 will be released on February 6th, but you can currently get a free storage upgrade if you pre-order before then.both Amazon and best buy is selling a 512GB model with 16GB RAM in black or green for $799.99 ($100 off). The price is the same as that of the lower-end 256GB model, so there’s no reason to give up twice the storage if you’re going to buy OnePlus’ latest Android smartphone at launch.
We’ve already personally used the OnePlus 12, and while it doesn’t completely beat the competition in certain areas, we can say that it’s comparable to its top contemporaries in terms of price. It’s powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor with 12GB of RAM, a 6.8-inch display, improved water resistance, and an upgraded Hasselblad-tuned camera array. And after OnePlus tried so hard to convince us that we don’t need wireless charging, it’s finally back (even at blistering speeds of up to 50W).
I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for glamping season. If you’re the type who likes the bits, bytes, and current side of things; Jackery’s Explorer 1000 Portable Power Station (named for its 1002 watt-hour capacity) is an excellent pickup in use today. On sale at Amazon for $650 ($350 off)) after clipping the coupon on the page. We also have a $400 coupon. Bundle including Jackery’s 200W solar panel, dropping the pair to $1,249.If you prefer, you can also buy just the power plant now and get the solar panels later (also Currently $140 off ) on Amazon).
The Jackery Explorer 1000 features three AC outlets that can output up to 1000W, plus USB-C Power Delivery and one USB-A port. According to Jackery, a 200W solar panel (or two 100W panels) can give him a full charge in six hours, but mileage may vary depending on exact conditions. As standard, it can be charged with AC power or even use your car battery using the included car charging port. The LED display shows exactly how much battery power is left and how long it will take to fully charge.
Some outdoor enthusiasts may decide that they need one of these if they bring a lot of electronics into the wilderness, but don’t do that. It’s okay to bring a powered hot plate or emergency communications equipment on a camping trip. Additionally, it’s perfect as a home emergency backup in case of a power outage. I own this unit and his two solar panels, and they were a godsend during the pipe burst and grid drain frigidity that hit Dallas a few years ago.
