Sanho, a company that's made something of a name for itself with its Hyper line of dongles that restore useful ports that USB-C can displace from laptops, has a new trick: wireless charging.

The newest HyperDrive adapter, launched at CES, combines 8 ports with the Qi wireless charging standard that will let you plop on an Apple iPhone 8 and iPhone X, the Samsung Galaxy S8 and Note 8, or other phones that works with Qi. As an added bonus, the charger has a flip-up stand that holds your phone upright so you can see what notification just arrived on its screen.
