A great Type-C Hub for people on a budget for less than 1,000

While most mid-segment phones may soon lack memory card slots and most notebooks will only have USB Type-C connections, this does not mean that memory cards and peripherals that connect to normal USB type A ports will become obsolete. In actuality, they are still widely utilised.

Even rudimentary devices like wired keyboards and mice typically have standard USB ports, most flash drives still have standard USB rather than Type C connectivity, and memory cards are still very much alive and well despite the fact that some smartphones, tablets, and laptops may be getting slots to support them.

Because of this, the majority of us who use mid- to high-end notebooks and smartphones frequently find ourselves carrying adaptors and port hubs in order to connect various devices, such as keyboards, memory cards, and cameras, to them. Additionally, carrying these adaptors can be cumbersome and expensive. Some even have wires attached to them, which makes them more fragile and difficult to transport.

Because of this, we are really pleased with the Aropana Type-C Smart Reader. No, we haven’t heard much about the company, but we’ve heard good things about its goods.

We put the adaptor into a MacBook Air and it appeared at home there because of its aluminium appearance, which gives it a very sturdy and expensive feel. In comparison to other of the inexpensive plastic choices we have seen in this price bracket, it feels significantly better to use. It also has no cables, unlike the majority of inexpensive solutions; instead, it is a single block that can be inserted into a device. This is quite convenient as it eliminates the concern of the adaptor dangling from a device. It also makes carrying it very simple because it is compact and lightweight enough to fit in a pocket.

With Mac OS, Windows, and Android devices, as well as an iPad Air and Chromebook with a Type C port, the Aropana Type-C Smart Reader performs admirably. You can connect your device to any other device that has a conventional USB port and a micro USB port using this discrete connection method. Additionally, the converter has slots for microSD and SD cards.

It is therefore an extremely practical tool for anyone utilising a laptop, smartphone, or tablet that primarily has a USB type C port. This handy little gadget lets you connect a flash drive, a portable hard drive, and a keyboard to them. It goes without saying that the ability to simply take out a SD card from their cameras and transfer images to their notebooks or phones, without having to bother about fussy (and often erratic and interrupted) wireless transfers.

Data transfer speeds are decent and we have experienced no issues with dropping connections. Please keep in mind that cases prohibit the adaptor from fitting neatly into the ports of your phones and tablets, so take them off before using this gadget with them.

The Aropana Type-C Smart Reader isn’t great, in our opinion. The tiny USB port was completely useless to us; perhaps a Type C port would have been preferable in its place. Additionally, despite the adaptor being connected directly to a USB Type C port on another device without a wire thanks to its block-like design and lack of a wire, its shape results in it obstructing other ports close to it.

The Aropana Type-C Smart Reader is still a great deal for anyone looking for a well-designed, dependable adaptor to connect their USB Type C port from their smartphone, tablet, or laptop to the Type A port of another device or simply to transfer data from flash drives or memory cards at a price of less than Rs 800. Simply confirm that OTG connectivity is supported by your phone or tablet (most do!).

Tom Holland to star alongside Matt Damon in Christopher Nolan’s next, will juggle that with Spider-Man 4 in 2025

Tom Holland, last seen in Apple TV show The Crowded Room last year, has signed his next with Academy Award-winning filmmaker Christopher Nolan.

Tom Holland is going to have a very busy 2025. As per The Hollywood Reporter, the actor has signed Christopher Nolan’s next, which he will juggle the filming of with that of the long-awaited Spider-Man 4. (Also Read – Tom Holland shares why he left alcohol behind: ‘Struggling without booze…’)

Tom signs Nolan’s next

This will mark the first collaboration between Tom and Christopher. While details of his next directorial aren’t known yet, it’s most likely not to have a contemporary setting. It’ll be either set in the past like, his previous film Oppenheimer (2023), or in the future like Interstellar (2014). Matt Damon, who has worked with Christopher in both, has also come on board his next.

Christopher’s next will be co-produced by him and his wife Emma Thomas’ banner Syncopy Inc and Universal Pictures, as the two production houses will team up after the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Oppenheimer last year. Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).

Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.

Tom’s busy schedule

Tom didn’t have any release this year. His last outing was Todd Graff’s psychological thriller show The Crowded Room on Apple TV last year. He’ll juggle the filming of Christopher Nolan’s next and Spider-Man 4 in 2025. Tom has been playing the superhero ever since Russo Brothers’ 2016 blockbuster Captain America: Civil War. He’s slipped into the Peter Parker shoes post that for three standalone films and two Avengers movies. Spider-Man 4 will be helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton.

As Tom’s girlfriend and co-star Zendaya will be busy filming Spider-Man 4 in 2025, she’ll reprise her role of Chani in Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi spectacle Dune 3 only in 2026. Meanwhile, Tom is also likely to make an appearance as Spider-Man in Russo Brothers’ Avengers: Doomsday, which will go on floors in the spring of 2025.
