While Apple is known for timeless hardware with relentlessly improving software, it’s hard to argue that it’s ahead of the curve when it comes to USB-C. That’s not a problem if all your gadgets still use Lightning, but if you have a MacBook or iPad with USB-C, you can’t share its cords with your iPhone.

A multi-connector charging cable like the InCharge X — which bundles Lightning, USB-C, USB-A and Micro USB into a single, streamlined package — can meet all your needs. And right now, it’s just $17.59 (regularly $29) with code WINTER20.

That’s not the only thing on sale, though. You can pick up more gadgets and apps for 20% off when using this coupon in our Winter Savings collection. But hurry! This event ends today.

The gallium nitride-based Nano 3 is even smaller than before and packs 30W of power. But the real headliner may be the two sizes of plant-based USB-C charging cables for USB-C and Lighting devices.

And you can get the charger and cables in a choice of fanciful matching colors and at 10% off for two weeks, Anker said.

If you own multiple electronic devices that you use daily — like maybe an iPhone, AirPods and an Apple Watch — then keeping your devices charged while maintaining a clutter-free environment is probably something you’re familiar with. These devices are great, but the fact that each needs a separate cord to plug into a computer or wall to charge can lead to a mess of tangled wires.
