The Ugreen 65W Travel Charger retails for S$59.99, dropping to S$41.99 on 11/11, and appears to be Ugreen's first. It includes a carrying pouch, though it can't plug in directly without one of its interchangeable adapters.
The Benks Infinity Pro Magnetic iPad Stand comes in three sizes, from S$121.99 for the Air and Pro 11-inch to S$135.99 for the 12.9-inch. The solid aluminium build weighs 860g yet folds nearly flat.
During Shopee's 10/10 flash sale, the Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Generation) went for S$319 at an authorised reseller, with S$31.90 in coin cashback. Paying via OCBC Frank added another 6% back, making it a great deal.
