Kuxiu S4 25W Semi-Solid Wireless 10K Power Bank review: thinnest 10K magnetic power bank
Macworld At a glanceExpert's Rating Pros Slimmest-ever 10K power bank Semi-solid-state technology 25W wireless or 30W wired charging Kickstand Bright smart display Cons S3 has built-in cable Our Verdict The Kuxiu S4 is the slimmest 10K magnetic wireless power bank we have tested yet. If you want thinner, you’ll have to sacrifice half the battery capacity with a 5K battery pack. Price When Reviewed This value will show the geolocated pricing text for product undefined Best Pricing Today Price When Reviewed$89.99 Best Prices Today: Kuxiu S4 Semi-Solid Safe 25W Wireless 10K Power Bank Retailer Price Kuxiu $84.99 View Deal Price comparison from over 24,000 stores worldwide Product Price Price comparison from Backmarket When we reviewed the Kuxiu S3 25W 10K Solid-State Power Bank we called it the “fast 25W wireless battery pack that has it all”. We were impressed by its built-in USB-C cable, integrated kickstand, and super-clear digital battery display. Now, the same company has released the S4 Power Bank. It’s not the S3 plus some more. In fact it’s a bit less than the S3, but in one aspect that’s great news—because the Kuxiu S4 is the slimmest 10K magnetic wireless power bank we’ve ever tested. And it’s pretty special in other ways, too. Simon Jary Power bank specs Capacity: 38.5Wh (10000mAh) Input charger: USB-C (30W) Output charger: Wireless (25W) & USB-C (30W) On test charged iPhone to: 177% Weight: 7.55oz (214g) Dimensions: 4.1 x 2.7 x 0.53 inches (104 x 69 x 13.7mm) Colors: Cosmic Orange, Black Battery capacity: 10000mAh (10K) is the largest battery size that you can clamp to the back of your MagSafe iPhone without it being too cumbersome to pocket—and small pockets will better appreciate a 5000mAh (5K) power bank. Read reviews of all the best magnetic power banks we have tested, both 5K and 10K. Not all 10K or 5K power banks have exactly the same capacity. To get more precise you need to look at the capacity in watt hours (Wh). The S4’s 38.5Wh is a smidge under the S3’s 39.5Wh. The average 10K battery capacity in watt hours is 37.9Wh. Speed: For power output the S4 is rated at the top 25W, using the latest Qi2.2 wireless charging technology. Only the iPhone 16 series and later can take all 25W, with older iPhones pegged back at 15W (still much faster than still-available 7.5W battery packs). Note that the 17e is also limited to 15W, and the iPhone Air to 20W. The S4’s USB-C port is rated at 30W so will charge your iPhone faster if you need to power up as quickly as possible, but you’ll need to bring a USB-C cable—unlike with the S3 that comes with its own built-in. The very fastest wired iPhone charging we’ve seen from a magnetic power bank is 45W from The Baseus PicoGo AM52, but it’s unlikely the iPhone will accept much more than 35W anyway. When recharging the S4 power bank, the power input is 30W—at the top end of magnetic wireless power bank range. Simon Jary Like the S3, the S4 is built using semi-solid-state (SSS) battery technology that’s engineered for superior safety, longevity and thermal stability compared to standard lithium-ion battery packs. You can skip the next bit if you’re not interested in technical details… What are Semi-Solid State batteries? Semi-Solid is a transition technology between traditional liquid lithium-ion batteries and all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs). When all solid-state batteries are mainstream, they will likely replace semi, but semi is as good as we have today. Once proven in electric vehicles, we expect to see ASSB power banks in by 2028. Why so long? All-solid-state batteries will require new manufacturing facilities, while semi-solid-state batteries are compatible with existing lithium-ion production lines, requiring only minimal (10-20%) new equipment. As such, ASSBs will be expensive—maybe 3-4x—than traditional batteries and so are unlikely to be seen in mainstream laptops until manufacturing ramps up and costs go down.. SSS batteries replace a large portion of flammable liquid electrolyte with a gel or slurry, typically only 5–10% liquid remains. The reduction of flammable liquid significantly lowers the risks of thermal runaway, leakage, and fire. They are more resistant to extreme heat and physical damage. This is why we expect airlines to allow only solid-state batteries on flights in the future. This improved thermal stability also means the batteries should perform better in colder temperatures. Aside from greater safety, solid-state tech allows the battery to have a higher energy density, so they can be made smaller. They should also last longer with a greater number of possible charge cycles before capacity degradation. Simon Jary Thinnest design yet Kuxiu calls the aluminum-alloy S4 “the world’s thinnest 10,000mAh semi-solid-state cell”, and it’s not wrong. 13.7mm is the thinnest 10K power bank we’ve tested. The previous champ, the Anker MagGo 10K Slim, is a full millimeter thicker and offers only 15W power output. The average depth of a 10K power bank is 18.2mm. Some other 10K power banks are 16mm or 17mm deep, but the average is 20-22mm. The S4 is a third thinner than those chunky beasts. Let’s be honest, it’s not a sliver of a power bank—it still looks large compared to the thinnest 5K battery packs—but it is the slimmest 10K. Even the 5K power banks we’ve tested average out at 10.7mm depth, although the slimmest of all (the BMX SolidSafe Air 5K) is a mere 6.8mm deep. Kuxiu S4 vs Kuxiu S3: slim vs cable The S4 is noticeably slimmer than the S3 but lacks its long integrated USB-C cable. That means Kuxiu has been able to make the S4 over 35% slimmer—14mm vs 22cm. While we love a built-in cable on a magnetic power bank (wired charging is always faster and a cable makes recharging the power bank itself less hassle), we also desire them to be as slim as can be. That’s the major compromise between choosing between the S3 and S4, but there are more differences. Read our Kuxiu S3 review for more details. Both power banks feature a stand, and the S3’s stand is larger and more robust than the S4’s bottom-mounted pull-out but the S4’s performs well enough. Simon Jary Both have a digital display so you can see precisely how much power remains in the power bank—most make do with four tiny LEDs, each of which represents 25% battery charge, compared to the exact number a digital display readout gives you. The S3’s is clear to read but shows just the remaining battery charge. The TFT display on the S4—tucked behind the stand—is smarter and more colorful, showing battery health, operating temperature, battery level (remaining charge), wireless charging power and USB-C input/output power plus battery safety alerts where appropriate. You might not need to know all that info but it’s there, presented on three digital circles. Finally, the Kuxiu S4 is available in a stunning Cosmic Orange to match the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max as well as the same Black as the S3. Recharging performance At Macworld we produce a battery performance report for all the power banks that pass through our labs. There’s nothing fancy involving microscopes and spectrometers. We simply drain an iPhone’s battery to 0%, connect the power bank and see how many times it can recharge the phone. If it fills the phone up with juice to spare, we wait till the phone has run out again and repeat until the power bank is empty. The best score we have got from a 10000mAh (10K) power bank is 190% (the 15W EcoFlow RAPID 10K), with an average score of 166%. The Kuxiu S4 scored an above-average 172%—around the same ballpark as the S3. The Kuxiu S4 is available in a striking Cosmic Orange color to match the iPhone 17 Pro/Max, or a more standard Black.Kuxiu Price The Kuxiu S4 10K Magnetic Power Bank is priced at $84.99 or £64. The S3 is cheaper at $68.99/£54, even with its integrated cable. If you want the thinnest 10K magnetic power bank, you’ll need to dig a bit deeper, but your trouser-pocket lining may thank you for it over the long term. For more options we have tested and reviewed the best magnetic wireless power banks. Should you buy the Kuxiu S4 25W Wireless 10K Power Bank? First things first: the Kuxiu S4 is the slimmest 10K magnetic wireless power bank we have tested yet. If you want thinner, you’ll have to sacrifice half the battery capacity with a 5K battery pack. The S4 performed above average in our recharging tests. If you can sacrifice the slimness, consider its S3 sibling that boasts an integrated USB-C cable, but we salute the S4 for being the slim semi-solid-state champion… and we love the Cosmic Orange option.

Mac mini starting price rises to $799 as Apple stops offering 256GB option
Macworld If you’re looking for the cheapest desktop Mac, you’ll have to spend a little more than last week. On Apple.com, you can no longer buy the M4 Mac mini with 256GB of storage. No, it’s not simply out of stock, nor does it have extended delivery times (as has been the case for a while). It’s just gone. It’s not an option on the Apple store any longer. This is what the storage section of the configuration page looks like now: Apple Though Apple hasn’t increased the cost of the 512GB model (or other options and variations), this still effectively makes the Mac mini more expensive. You used to be able to get one for $599, and now you have to pay $799, even though you get double the storage. The MacBook Neo and iMac are now the only Macs that still have a 256GB option. In Apple’s earnings call yesterday, Tim Cook said he was looking at “a range of options” to deal with the massive increase in memory costs. This is one tactic—Apple charges an incredible price premium for RAM and storage upgrades, asking customers to pay several times more than the going rate for these components. By effectively forcing consumers to buy an “upgraded” model, it can absorb the memory chip price increase while maintaining a high profit margin. It’s not clear if that’s exactly what is happening here, or if Apple will use the same tactic on other products to raise the average selling price and profit margin of some products while not technically raising prices. Apple made this change to the Mac mini configurations without comment or announcement, so we can only guess as to the reason for the change.

Matias Folding Keyboard ideal for serious iPad typists

By ‘Doctor Dave’ Greenbaum

While many people can do occasional typing on the iPad or iPhone via the virtual keyboard, serious keyboarding simply isn’t possible without a true external keyboard. While Apple offers two options, they are limiting and the US$99.95 Matias Folding Keyboard (http://matias.ca/foldingkeyboard/index.php) provides an ideal third option for serious iPad typists.
