2018 marks the year that Type-C became the big standard it promised it would be. With the iPad Pro adopting it, alongside the MacBook (and rumors that the iPhone would too), Type-C finally made its way across all dominant operating systems, from Windows, to Chrome OS, to Mac, to Android, and iOS. So if there’s a good time to start adopting Type-C (or USB-C), it’s right now.
The beauty of the Type-C standard is that its compact and universal. It’s present everywhere, and works everywhere, and pretty much does anything from power supply to data transfer, to even low-latency, high-quality image transfer. That’s where Nonda’s USB-C to HDMI Adapter comes in. Incredibly small (just about the size of a coin), the Nonda USB-C HDMI Adapter can be stashed anywhere, from pockets to compartments in your backpack, and can be pulled out at the right moment to convert your idle USB-C port into an HDMI input. The adapter comes with its own foldable cable, giving you the flexibility and freedom to connect your projector, display, or television to your iPad, MacBook, Windows laptop, or your Android phone. It supports playing 4K UHD videos at 60Hz with absolutely no flicker or lag, letting you take your portable devices and beam content from them onto larger, more immersive displays. Whether it’s an office presentation, a seminar, daily work that requires a large display, a movie-binge, sports-night, or the greatest game of Fortnite ever, the Nonda USB-C to HDMI Adapter has you sorted, giving your Type-C port the power and versatility it made so many promises of, and giving you the ability to take your portable devices and expand their screens tenfold!
All the automakers are making sure that driving experience gets more and more exciting by time. Other than that most of the companies are working pretty hard to make sure that safety is the first...
The car gadgets that you can find in our store, Walyou Deals, either act as accessories for other devices, or serve a function of their own. Either way, having them at all times in your glove department can save you from a lot of frustration.
Out of the numerous car gadgets that are featured in our store, here are three that could come in handy more often than the others: an air purifier, a charger/locator, and a universal car mount.
ExoMount Touch iPhone Car Mount
Originally $30, but sold through Walyou Deals for $19.99, EXOGEAR’s ExoMount Touch universal car mount can accommodate smartphones or navigation devices of various sizes.
This versatile gadget is extremely easy to install, as it can be attached or released with a single touch. Besides that, it can be mounted on any flat, smooth, curved, textured or rounded surface. Check out the following video to get an idea about the real-life uses of ExoMount Touch.
Zus Smart Car Charger & Locator
Up next is Nonda’s Zus smart car charger and locator, which relies on ultra-fast USB that charges batteries twice as fast as regular chargers.
Zus also has a companion app that you can use if you simply cannot remember where you’ve parked your car. The device uses Bluetooth 4.0 LE, so don’t expect to be able to locate the vehicle from a mile away. As long as you’re in the car’s general vicinity, you’ll be able to find it using the Zus and the app.
On Walyou Deals, Zus is discounted from $50 to $29.99, but the offer expires in two days, so hurry up and get one, if you feel like you need it.
Car Plug-In Air Purifier
The car plug-in air purifier developed by RAWtronics plugs into your car’s 12V outlet and employs a built-in ionizer to improve air quality within minutes. This tiny gadget has many upsides, but one of the most important aspects is that it doesn’t produce any fragrance while cleaning the air. That’s particularly important since a lot of people can’t stand the smell of car deodorants, and covering the foul odors with other smells is certainly not a solution.
Foul odors and allergens can be quite irritating, and the vehicle’s own air ventilation system may not be always the best solution for getting rid of these. All odors left behind by pets, sweat, food, exhaust, can be easily dealt with using this air purifier. Cigarette and cigar smoke doesn’t stand a chance, either, but it’s probably for the best that neither you, nor your passengers smoke while in the car. Or ever.
For the next three days, you can get the car plug-in air purifier on Walyou Deals for $16.99 instead of $89.
By referring a friend or subscribing to the store’s newsletter, you can get an additional $10 off, a discount that you can use on any of these three devices.
