Today Altec Lansing announced the release of a new iPhone and iPod dock that’s designed to give users high-quality sound and the ultimate in portability. The new iMT630 ($150) is designed to be a fully-functional iPhone or iPod dock for the home, but to also provide great portability when necessary. The dock has a sleek, modern design and runs on a rechargeable lithium-ion battery that can give up to seven hours of portable playtime. Dual two-inch drivers give full stereo sound and a wireless remote allows users to control playback from across the room. 

The dock also works with Altec Lansing’s free iOS apps including the Music Mood app and the Alarm Rock app to enhance the user experience. Users can use preset options or an advanced seven-band graphic EQ to customize their experiences in the Music Mood app, or play sounds from the accessible ambient library. The Alarm Rock app turns the dock into a full-fledged digital alarm clock system, complete with snooze button, the ability to wake to your favorite songs, and a customizable interface.

iPhone SE 4: news, rumored price, release date, and more
The Apple iPhone SE (2022) and Apple iPhone SE (2020) together.

While the spotlight always seems to be on Apple’s mainline iPhones, the iPhone SE is a great pick for those who are on a budget. If you want an iPhone that doesn't break the bank, the SE is the way to go.

The original iPhone SE came out in 2016, and then Apple revamped it in 2020 and 2022 by giving it some more modern hardware. The iPhone SE tends to get updated every two or so years rather than annually like the traditional iPhone. This means  that we should see a new iPhone SE 4 this year, but it’s not so cut-and-dried with this particular model.

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.
