Mat Watson scored rare access to a European-spec prototype of the upcoming Toyota GR GT.

Frequent travelers and anyone who works long hours away from outlets know the sinking feeling when a laptop or phone battery drops into the red. UGREEN built this 25,000mAh power bank, priced at $59.98 (was $110), to remove that worry with enough capacity and output to handle serious devices without constant hunting for wall plugs. Capacity sits at 25,000mAh. That store of energy supports roughly 1.3 full charges on many laptops and up to five or six full charges on typical smartphones. The math translates into multiple days of normal use or a full workday plus travel time on a single fill of the bank itself.
