This Valentine’s Day, give your lady a gift that will help her help you. Or rather, help her stay in touch with you. With mobile charging handbags from VanDerWaals, the woman in your life will be hard pressed to say that she didn’t respond to your text because her phone was dead. So if you’re looking to keep your significant other’s battery charged (both literally and … not so literally), take a look at one of the fantastic designs from VanDerWaals, the premier handbag company that combines fashion, function, and technology all in one bag.  

Thanks to its discreet internal power cord, any one of the VanDerWaals handbags will keep your smart phone, tablet, or portable device charged, leaving you free to get on with your busy life. But these bags are more than just tech-enablers — really, they’re fashion statements in and of themselves. Programmable through a free companion app, VanDerWaals handbags maintain the unique ability to change their color to match your outfit, your mood, or even your surroundings. Simply take a picture of the palette you’d like your VanDerWaals to emulate, and the bag will happily oblige. 

A truly transitional piece that will complement your life both practically and aesthetically, VanDerWaals notes that it draws its inspiration from “the innate human desire for self-expression.” Their wide selection of handbags are made from fine, premium leather and materials that are a true intersection between high fashion and the latest in wearable technology.

As the company states on its website, VanDerWaals is “committed to offering women the opportunity to express themselves  while staying plugged into their busy lives,” and you can buy into this promise with one of three sizes and styles — there’s the Caroline tote, which sells for $699, the Elena cross body ($499) and the new Flora clutch ($299).

So if you’re looking for a way to make an impression this Valentine’s Day, VanDerWaals looks to be the way to go.

Unlike our phones, the SIM cards that connect them to a network have barely evolved over the last decade or so. This can sometimes mean you'll have trouble connecting to a network, even when the phone and the SIM card are seemingly just fine. If you are using a Samsung Galaxy or another Android phone or tablet with cellular connectivity, you might see an error on your phone that says "Not Registered on Network."

Save $200 on this Android phone and get free Bose earbuds
Motorola Edge Plus (2023) lying on a bench.

For those who are looking to buy a new Android phone, you may want to go for this offer from Motorola -- the third-generation Motorola Edge Plus for only $600 following a $200 discount on its original price of $800, and it comes with the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II, which are worth $299, for free. That's unbelievable value that will be tough to get from other phone deals, but you'll have to hurry with your purchase if you want to take advantage of this bargain because there's no telling when it ends.

Why you should buy the Motorola Edge Plus (2023)
We reviewed the third-generation Motorola Edge Plus, released just last year, as a worthy competitor to the Google Pixel 7 Pro and the Samsung Galaxy S23. The smartphone features a 6.7-inch curved OLED display with Full HD+ resolution and a 165Hz refresh rate, and it's protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus to prevent scratches from daily wear and tear. The Motorola Edge Plus is also pretty fast with its Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and 8GB of RAM, and while it ships with Android 13, you can upgrade it to the latest Android 14 as soon as you unbox the device.
