It won't take a hard look at the market to understand why Apple's 10th Generation iPad (2022) retains a gigantic presence. The tablet offers up a streamlined design, high-quality hardware, and a reasonable price point, not to mention the buttery smooth user experience that iPad owners have come to expect. Making things more lopsided, it's been nearly five years since the release of the ill-fated Pixel Slate, a tablet that underwhelmed yet came in at an inflated price tag.

The USB port is a constant in the increasingly complex ecosystem of fast chargers, as most phones rely on the power drawn from a USB plug. Even when using a wireless charger, the pad demands a wired connection via a USB cable. However, the realities of charging equipment come into stark focus when on the move. While every driver will eventually need to charge their phone on the go, not every car includes a free USB port. Moreover, those that do probably lack advanced charging standards like USB Power Delivery and Programmable Power Supply (PPS), both of which are used in phones like Google Pixel 7 and Samsung Galaxy S23.

Although the Samsung Galaxy S22+ doesn't enjoy nearly as much attention as the S22 Ultra, it's not a lackluster phone. Yes, it does lack the same high-performance 108MP primary camera, 10x optical zoom, and the S Pen, but aside from that, this is the same device in a smaller, easier-to-hold package. The display is bright and beautiful, and the new 50MP primary camera is far better than what was on the S21+ from the year before.
