Charge your smartwatch with your smartphone using Samsung Power Sharing Cable

You can have all the mobile battery packs with you but sometimes that isn’t enough to get you through a day. A lot of people carry multiple devices so wouldn’t it be great if you can transfer power between them? Samsung has introduced a new Power Sharing cable that will let you do just that. It lets you transfer power from select Samsung devices to any micro-USB toting gadget. The Power Sharing cable only supports the latest devices, such as Galaxy S4, Galaxy S5, Galaxy Note 4, Galaxy Alpha, Galaxy Avant, and Galaxy Tab S 8.4 and 10.5. You will also need to get the Power Sharing app to allow your Samsung smartphone or tablet to charge another device. It retails for US$19.99 and is available on the company’s online store.

iPhone 5s and Galaxy S5 case designed to protect you from hackers?

Vysk: Putting Privacy Back in Your Hands from Mustache Production on Vimeo.

If you thought you could use an extra layer of security for your iPhone 5s or Samsung Galaxy S5, Vysk has made a case that doubles physical and digital security for your device. Let us list down the features of the Vysk QS1. It has mechanical camera shutters for the front and rear cameras so it won’t pry into the world and yourself. It has a microphone jamming system and an internal processor that encrypts your calls to make them secure. It also features encrypted voicemail, private messaging, and image gallery.

The QS1 is also designed to protect you against malware with the company’s patented Privacy Network. We’re not quite sure how they protect you against malware but that is an interesting proposition. And before we forget, it also has a built-in battery to give you that extra juice you need.  This comes at a pretty price of US$229.99 though. You can pre-order it from their site or through Best Buy later this winter.
