Twelve South, known for its innovative accessories, has launched a game-changer in the charger market – the PlugBug. This isn’t just another charger; it’s the first USB-C charger with Apple’s Find My functionality built-in, effectively eliminating the age-old problem of misplaced chargers.
The PlugBug features a sleek, compact design with two or four USB-C ports, offering enough power to charge multiple devices, including iPhones, iPads, and even MacBooks. The 50W dual-port model is small enough to fit in your pocket, while the 120W four-port version is slightly larger but still remarkably compact, considering its impressive charging capacity.
But what truly sets the PlugBug apart is its integration with Apple’s Find My. This simple yet incredibly useful feature allows you to locate your charger with ease using your iPhone or other Apple devices. The PlugBug has a dedicated battery for Find My, so it can be located even when it’s not plugged in. Once activated, it will show up on your Find My app, allowing you to track its location, get directions, or even trigger an audible alert to find it quickly.
The inclusion of Find My makes the PlugBug a truly unique product, and its sleek design, fast charging capabilities, and compact size only add to its appeal. The 50W dual-port PlugBug retails for $70, while the 120W four-port model is priced at $120. Both versions are expected to be available soon.
The PlugBug is a testament to Twelve South’s commitment to creating innovative and user-friendly products. This charger goes beyond simply providing power; it addresses a common frustration by making it practically impossible to lose your charger ever again. Its seamless integration of Find My, combined with its impressive charging capabilities and stylish design, makes it a must-have for any Apple user.
