My 618 Shopping Wishlist

My wishlist for China's 618 shopping festival — a portable hard drive, a GaN charger, an N1 TV box, and tissues.

H1 Portable Hard Drive

Phicomm may have gone under long ago, but the products they left behind are still solid. The H1 portable hard drive is still going for around ¥255 on Pinduoduo. Now that I’ve switched computers, I really want a portable drive. The convenience of a Type-C port is unbeatable, and the transfer speed is acceptable.

Baseus GaN Charger + 100W Dual-C Cable

Should I get a GaN charger for my Lenovo Xiaoxin Pro? The Baseus one is actually pretty good — dual Type-C plus one Type-A. The highest-wattage C port is perfect for charging the laptop, the second C port for iPhone PD fast charging, and the last A port for topping up various power banks.

Already bought the GaN charger — JD.com June 2nd sale price, ¥125 for the charger plus a 100W cable feels reasonable. Pretty close to Luo Yonghao’s price.

N1 TV Box

The biggest advantage is probably the price and the fact that you can flash custom firmware. Mainly I want to try running a software router on it. It’s the lowest priority though — I probably won’t buy this until I have a stable place to live…

Vinda Tissues

A daily essential, honestly.
