"One issue Apple's MagSafe Duo charging station has is that it is incompatible with the newest iPhones due to their camera bumps getting in the way"

REALLY?? Camera bumps are nothing new on iPhone.
I cannot see how even a huge camera bump would create any incmpatibility.

Apple agrees with me and lists all iPhones 14 as compatible: https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MHXF3AM/A/magsafe-duo-charger

Also, the author does not seem to understand MagSafe.
MagSafe without fast charging is just Qi with magnets.

They are very shady on capacity.  768wh is irrelevant and designed to mask true capacity.  We need to know the amp hours equivalent at various voltages.  

Thanks for indicating the capacity, which definitely should have been in the article.
Indicating a capacity in Wh (capital W btw) is not shady - it is relevant for energy, for which the official unit is Joule (J).
1 Wh = 3600 J = 3.6 kJ

What is definitely shady is battery capacity indicated in Ah ou mAh (Amperes x hours or thousandths of them), because, as you mentioned in your post, this measurement depends on the output voltage - change the output voltage (and there are many different output voltages for USB C) and you get a different measure in Ah or mAh.

If battery A has twice the capacity of battery B in Wh, it will last twice longer for the same usage.

I could not find a mention of the capacity of thing in the article. It's the number one information about a power bank.
Did I miss it?

That's a very unfortunate name.
Twelve South also makes another HiRise Pro, for iMacs or displays.(I own one) 
It's a totally different product, with the same name.

Why?

Thx.
It would be nice to change the title from "Intel has a faster processor than M2 Max, but at what cost?" to "Intel has a faster laptop processor than M2 Max, but at what cost?"
Intel also makes processor for desktops ...and servers. I have no doubt that many of them are faster than M2 Max.

I do question the relevance of the benchmarks, in particular regarding the optimization (or lack thereof) of apps for Apple Silicon, and in particular the use or not of dedicated silicon on Apple Silicon.
Apple Silicon has many dedicated units (such as the neural engine, ProRes or HEVC encoders/decoders) and optimization for those is not just a question of compling for Apple Silicon.

For example, I am pretty sure that Final Cut Pro is way faster than Premiere Pro on Apple Silicon, because it uses the dedicated ProRes/HEVC encoders/decoders on Apple's chips.
Similarly, I only use Apple Compressor for HEVC exports - it uses VideoToolbox and all the available silicon and that makes a big difference.

So, adding a comparison with similar tasks made on Apple software (or software used with all Apple Silicon optimizations) would add a lot of context to these benchmarks.
