    MP 1,1-5,1 This 15.99 USBC/3 card works perfectly and charges my iPhone fast

    This Amazon USB-C and A card was an amazing deal compared to most other things I could find. I installed it today in my 5,1 and it works natively with Monterey.

    What's better, an Otterbox Defender case or an Otterbox Commuter case with a glass screen protector for an iPhone?

    No-wobble gooseneck mount for iPad Pro?

    I need to use an iPad Pro for imagery etc. while painting (artwork) -- preferably, a flexible gooseneck mount that doesn't wobble (or at least, barely) that can mount to my wall easel. And perhaps other uses. Could anyone make a recommendation? Thank you.
