Turn your iPhone into a mirror, bottle opener, and more with Megaverse

Just think of it is as the One Case to rule them all. The Megaverse is branded as an anti-gravity case with nano-suction capabilities that help your iPhone stick to windows, mirrors, whiteboards, metal, cabinets, tiles, dashboards, and more. Whether you want to stick your phone on a wallet or attach a bottle opener, it seems like just about anything is possible with this handy, multipurpose case.

With two weeks left in its Indiegogo campaign, the Megaverse has already surpassed its funding goal of $20,000 thanks to the support of some 300 backers. Apparently, a phone case that features swappable backplates that come in four colors (gold, rose gold, space gray, and black), and the option to turn your phone into a wallet, shatter-proof mirror, or bottle opener, is just too much to resist.

Basically, anything your phone can’t do, your phone case will be able to do for you.

Even if you don’t have an iPhone, the Megaverse promises that you can use the Space, or the nanosuction plates, with just about any other phone case. This sticky back case lets you push your phone onto any smooth, flat surface, and “millions of little craters create suction, holding your phone in place,” the Megaverse team says.

The nanosuction plate also self-heals and is temperature resistant, so no matter what you decide to stick it on, it can probably handle itself.

Ultimately, the Megaverse makers note in their Indiegogo campaign, “We’re tinkerers at heart and our days are a stream of ideas we can’t shake. We see the world as an endless opportunity to make things a little better.” Sure, a multi-purpose cell phone case probably won’t bring about world peace, but still, the team takes heart in the notion that “you can take something people use every day and make it just a little bit better.”

3 reasons why I’ll actually use Anker’s new iPhone power bank
A person holding the Anker MagGo Power Bank.

Power banks are a necessary evil, and even if you don’t consider yourself a “power user” who's likely to drain a phone’s battery in less than a day, there will be times when one comes in handy. And when I am forced to carry one, I want it to be as helpful and versatile as possible.

I’ve been trying Anker’s MagGo Power Bank 10K -- meaning it has a 10,000mAh cell inside it -- and there are three reasons why I'm OK with it taking up valuable space in my bag.

Here’s how Apple could change your iPhone forever

Over the past few months, Apple has released a steady stream of research papers detailing its work with generative AI. So far, Apple has been tight-lipped about what exactly is cooking in its research labs, while rumors circulate that Apple is in talks with Google to license its Gemini AI for iPhones.

But there have been a couple of teasers of what we can expect. In February, an Apple research paper detailed an open-source model called MLLM-Guided Image Editing (MGIE) that is capable of media editing using natural language instructions from users. Now, another research paper on Ferret UI has sent the AI community into a frenzy.

There’s a big problem with the iPhone’s Photos app
The Apple iPhone 15 Plus's gallery app.

While my primary device these days continues to be my iPhone 15 Pro, I’ve dabbled with plenty of Android phones since I’ve been here at Digital Trends. One of my favorite brands of phone has been the Google Pixel because of its strong suite of photo-editing tools and good camera hardware.

Google first added the Magic Eraser capability with the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, which is a tool I love using. Then, with the Pixel 8 series, Google added the Magic Editor, which uses generative AI to make edits that wouldn’t be possible otherwise. There are also tools like Photo Unblur, which is great for old photographs and enhancing images that were captured with low-quality sensors.
