Faster, healthier, greener, more beautiful life!

Many smartphone accessories are coming out to simplify our

at the start of 2022!

Whether you are a

or a simple pragmatic user,

has tracked down and tested five that can join your tech panoply.

To prevent your smartphone from being a virus nest: Einova's Mundus box

This white box which plugs into the mains is a double blow.

After opening it, you put your smartphone there so that it can be disinfected in just eight minutes.

The operation is carried out thanks to the UV-C bulbs it contains.

Their light has the effect of transforming the oxygen molecules into ozone molecules which cause the immediate death of any cells present on the mobile terminal.

Another vocation: once closed, the Mundus box acts as a smartphone charger.

Its cover then serves as a support on which we can place our mobile for recharging.

59 euros (instead of 99 euros) on the manufacturer's website.

Our opinion: 

In line with the Mundus Pro box that we had tested (and which could simultaneously disinfect a smartphone and small objects), the Mundus makes perfect sense in these times of the return of a pandemic.

While our smartphones are the objects we handle the most on a daily basis, stuck them for a few minutes in this little box quickly becomes a reassuring gesture.

For its part, the load which is carried out in 10 Watts unfortunately remains a little long.

For more responsible recharging: Green_e charging cables

It is well known: even if you take care of it, the charging cable of a smartphone ends up wearing out quite quickly and needs to be replaced.

Not with Green_e.

Boasting a 10-year warranty on its cables, the French brand has achieved a real tour de force by offering not only sustainable products, but also eco-designed, made from recycled or recyclable materials, with these recyclable zinc connectors for a greater maintenance over time.

From 9.99 euros.

Our opinion:

For our tests, we particularly appreciated the braided cables of the manufacturer whose quality and resistance are indisputable.

Available in USB to Lightning socket (for iPhone / iPad / AirPods) or to USB-C, we can associate them with a charger from the brand also eco-designed and recyclable.

Moreover, Green_e does not do things by halves: each product is sold in compostable packaging and supplied with a “T” voucher for its free return at the end of its life, for recycling (or that of other cables. that we would have in stock).

To create very stable images: the PowerVision S1 gimbal

Surprisingly compact when folded, the PowerVision S1 object acts as a gimbal with motorized stabilizer on three axes.

On the move, even while traveling, it is very practical for filming without shaking.

And thanks to the controls accessible on its handle and in particular its small joystick, it is possible to change the orientation of your mobile terminal, zoom, etc.

Interesting for creating content, especially since an application (Vision + S1) allows some additional settings, such as subject tracking, horizon line locking, or triggering shots using gestures.

Bonus far from being anecdotal: the PowerVision S1 acts as an extra battery (4120 mAh) to charge smartphones by induction.

This is the equivalent of a charge for most smartphones on the market.

179 euros.

Our opinion:

With its Swiss Army knife aspect, its compactness and its versatility, the Powervision S1 is an interesting accessory ... provided you really need it.

Too expensive for occasional use, it should be reserved for frequent users.

We salute the relevance and reliability of its tracking mode, as well as its very effective stabilization for this possible competitor of the DJI OM5 (sold 159 euros).

To recharge several items of equipment at the same time: Moshi's Sette Q tray

Elegant with its surface covered with gray fabrics, the Moshi Sette Q charging station incorporates two charging modules that can deliver up to 15 Watts each.

It can therefore accommodate two smartphones simultaneously (practical on your desk, if you have a professional and personal terminal!), But also a smartphone and headphones, etc.

Tip: the device has a USB-A socket on the front.

Goal: simultaneously charge a wired device, not compatible with induction charging (QI standard, common to most smartphones now), such as a watch or an audio headset.

125 euros on Amazon

.

Our opinion:

We appreciate the discretion of this accessory which will almost be forgotten on a piece of furniture or a nightstand.

Welcome: on its surface, a small non-slip ring ensures, as we have seen, excellent support for smartphones that do not risk slipping or falling if you accidentally hit them.

Note that Moshi applies a 10 year warranty to this device.

To save your AirPods from disaster: Catalyst waterproof case

Who hasn't been afraid of losing their headphone case?

Who has never feared that it would take on water under a winter downpour or during a sporting activity?

Dedicated to Apple's AirPods Pro, this case developed by the specialist in protective accessories Catalyst has a double virtue.

Made of silicone and with a carabiner, it allows you to hang your headphones anywhere, but also to protect them against rain, or even immersion.

With the IP67 standard, the small cover can thus save AirPods Pro from drowning up to a depth of one meter.

29.95 euros.

Our opinion:

Easy to use (just slip the earphone case into the case), this accessory should be supplied by Apple with its AirPods Pro, so much sense and practicality it is.

Available in four colors (including a phosphorescent model that can be seen at night), this case is sold exclusively on the Apple Store, but it has many variations that can be found on the site of its manufacturer.
