Peak Design’s new universal phone case could meet all your mounting needs

Regardless of whether you’re grabbing a new iPhone 13 or sticking to a Galaxy S21, fiddling with bulky or unreliable mounts before a long drive could be a thing of the past. Mobile by Peak Design is a continuation of its efforts to simplify phone accessories so that you only need one case and a few accessories for both protection and mounting.  The goal is to offer the convenience of just one or two accessories, without a loss to practicality or style.

How the new case system works is that there are magnets built straight into Peak Design’s cases to ensure that your phone stays exactly where you put it. Whether that’s on a bike, in your car, or even just at home on your desk. Because the magnets are universal on Mobile’s Ecosystem, your phone can work with the entire Mobile line. It’s also compatible with Apple’s other MagSafe accessories you may already have as well as any non-MagSafe wireless chargers. How useful MagSafe is as a whole is likely a question that’s best answered by your own usage.

Your new iPhone needs a Peak Design case, and here's why.

The accessory line features three different phone cases. The Everyday Case has a slim shape sporting a nylon canvas with rubberized edges for optimal protection. Its counterpart, the Everyday Loop Case, comes with a built-in finger loop to help you keep an easier grip on your phone. Last, but not least, is the Universal Adaptor which makes the system compatible with any third-party case you still want to use without having to upgrade to a new case right away. Just make sure not to use it with any soft leather or silicone cases.

The Mobile Ecosystem also boasts a wide array of mounts and other accessories that work hand-in-hand with the cases:

  • Mobile Tripod
  • Creator Kit
  • Wireless Charging Stand
  • Wall Mount
  • Slim Wallet
  • Stand Wallet
  • Car Mount
  • Charging Car Mount
  • Out-Front Bike Mount
  • Universal Bar Mount
  • Motorcycle Bar Mount
  • Motorcycle Stem Mount

The Everyday Case is available for all iPhone 11, 12, 13, and Samsung Galaxy S21 models for $40. The Loop is only obtainable for iPhone 12 models — except Mini — and iPhone 13 models. It’ll clock in at a $50 price point. The Universal Adaptor offers a cheaper alternative for just $30.

The iPhone 17 will reportedly get a new type of Wi-Fi chip
A person using the Apple iPhone 16 Plus.

By this time next year, Apple may have installed its own in-house Wi-Fi chips in all of its phones, or at least one of them.

According to Ming-Chi Kuo, a well-known analyst with a trusted record, Apple is working on its own Wi-Fi chips to replace the current ones from Broadcom, but there's not a firm timeline on when they'll arrive (via MacRumors). He says the iPhone 17 Pro might come equipped with this new chip, but other sources suggest it won't get widespread adoption until the iPhone 18.

How to fast charge your iPhone
iPhone 12 Mini with charger

While they may not be some of the longest-lasting smartphones on the market, modern iPhones boast more than respectable battery life that should be able to get you through an entire day's use without breaking too much of a sweat. Of course, that assumes a lot of things — including a battery that's still relatively new and in good health, plus a usage pattern that doesn't include all-day streaming or gaming.

But for some people, overnight charging isn't going to cut it, and you'll want to get your battery topped up again as quickly as you can so you can get back in action. Thankfully, every iPhone released in the past six years supports much faster charging, but the downside is that with very few exceptions, Apple has never supplied you with the right adapter to get the best possible charging speeds from your iPhone.
