Every week, there are plenty of new products emerging in the consumer tech realm. At times, it becomes impossible to cover all of them. Here, we pick the new products of the week and deliver them to you in bite-size format.

Aftershock Flow

To coincide with the launch of 12th-generation Intel Core processors, local gaming PC maker Aftershock PC launched a new desktop gaming rig called Flow.

It features Corsair’s 4000D premium minimalist steel chassis that offers a highly versatile airflow with two 120mm fans included. And combined with Aftershock’s attention to details from perfect cable management to performance testing, you will be getting the gaming rig of your dreams.

Casio G-Shock GMW-B5000TVA
S$2,259, available next month

This Casio G-Shock watch might look like the first G-Shock, but it is inspired by the virtual world. The GMW-B5000VTA’s bezel and band have laser etchings this watch’s specification of this watch.

The laser-bored holes reveal the red-coloured fine resin component. These give the watch its bold and futuristic looks. In addition, this G-Shock is made of titanium to reduce the weight. The surface is applied with diamond-like coating for resistance to scratches.

UGREEN GaN 3C1A 100W Charger
S$140, available in Lazada and Shopee

You don’t have to carry four chargers with you when you only need the UGREEN GaN 3C1A 100W Charger. It comes with three USB-C ports and one USB-A port. It can charge four mobile devices simultaneously with a maximum total output of 100W. According to UGREEN, the 3C1A charger can fully charge a 13-inch MacBook Pro in 1.8 hours.

Yet, around the size of your palm, it is much smaller than its predecessors, thanks to the use of 3rd-generation gallium nitride (GaN). And weighing only 215g, it is not going to weigh you down when you carry it around.
