Currently wireless charging technology has begun to replace charging using cables because it is easier and now the charging speed is also high. However, Xiaomi is known to announce a technology that can be said to be one step further.

How could I not, it has just announced a technology called Mi Air Charge where this technology allows users to charge from their smartphone via air only!

It is known that this Mi Air Charge tool comes in a shape like a large cuboid which is said to transmit electrical energy to a smartphone. Currently, the power that can be transferred is still 5W. The reason is if it is higher it can be very dangerous.

“We are very excited to present the latest charging technology, namely Mi Air Charge Technology. You can charge multiple devices at once without cables at all. This is the latest wireless charging innovation,” wrote Xiaomi.

Xiaomi itself says that this technology can accurately track the position of a smartphone thanks to 144 antennas that track and send electrical energy directly to the intended smartphone.

Although it is not certain which radius is supported by this tool, Xiaomi says that this tool can at least provide charging support for a full room and also supports devices such as speakers, lights, and other smart home devices.

Currently, many electronic devices are equipped with GPS (Global Positioning System) technology. It also turns out to be able to help the police when looking for people who are missing or kidnapped, such as the incident that happened to a woman in Texas.

Based on information from News 4 San Antonio, the beginning of this incident occurred when a woman was arguing with a man named Adalberto Longoria. The debate was also witnessed by his son.

It is known that the woman’s child heard her mother’s voice screaming before she found her mother was not there with Longoria. As a result, the child tries to call his mother.

The mother apparently picked up the phone from her Apple Watch and informed her that she had been kidnapped by Longoria. Then the child tries to contact the police and ask for help.

Because the Apple Watch used by the woman was still active and the GPS feature was still on, the police immediately rushed to the location where the woman was kidnapped, namely in a parking lot near Hyatt city.

This is not the first time a kidnapping case has been rescued by electronic devices such as smartphones and smartwatches. That’s why activating the GPS feature while traveling will be useful because we can’t know what’s going on out there.

After waiting for a long time, iFixit has finally released the results of their teardown process to Apple’s latest AirPods Max headphones. The result of the teardown makes iFixit give a score of 6 out of 10 which is pretty good.

This is also the first AirPod device to score more than 0 because so far iFixit has provided an improvement score for the AirPods and AirPods Pro of 0 because the earbuds are difficult to put apart.

Coming back to the AirPods Max, iFixit says that almost all the components of the AirPods Max come with bolts so they only need to remove the bolts and components like the battery, motherboard, and speakers are easy to remove.

In addition, the earcup system that can be removed using magnets makes users not have to bother when they want to replace their dirty or damaged earcups.

Even iFixit is quite impressed with Apple where it turns out that the headband of the AirPods Max can be removed easily with the help of the SIM Ejector Tool alone.

Apple also deliberately made a port for the headband with a shape similar to the Lightning port which is usually found on the iPhone and iPad.

Perhaps because of its ease of repair, the price of Apple’s AirPods Max can be expensive. The reason is that the AirPods Max is sold for $550, where at that price, we can buy headphones from Sony like the WH-1000XM4 and there are still some leftovers.
