The M10 was developed to solve a common mobile charging challenge: powering multiple devices efficiently while on the move. It supports simultaneous charging for up to three devices through a Type-C cable output, MagSafe wireless charging, and an additional wireless charging module compatible with devices such as the Apple Watch. Equipped with a 10,000mAh battery and 35W fast-charging capability, the M10 helps users stay powered throughout the day.
The M10 also includes a built-in cooling system to regulate motherboard temperature, supporting battery health and safe operation. Its dual-sided magnetic structure enables integration with MagSafe accessories during charging, while compatibility with PD, QC, and Qi2 fast-charging protocols strengthens its value as a power solution.
The G05 Air redefines the role of a phone accessory through a multifunctional, ultra-slim design. It combines five functions in one compact form: a MagSafe stand, a ceramic utility knife, a fidget spinner, an ergonomic grip, and an angle-measuring tool. Made from aerospace-grade aluminum, the G05 Air features a sleek industrial aesthetic and a magnetic force five times stronger than its predecessor for more secure attachment.
The G05 Air also emphasizes tactile interaction and portability. Its ASMR-style fidget spinner delivers a satisfying mechanical click, while the hidden ceramic blade offers a safer way to open packages. Weighing just 38 grams and folding to a 6.5mm profile, it is designed for easy daily carry. An adjustable 0-80 degree viewing angle and ergonomic grip add value for creators, gamers, and everyday users.
Together, the award-winning M10 and G05 Air reflect aulumu’s design philosophy: creating tools that elevate daily life through intelligent functionality and creative design.

BAELEN, Belgium (AP) — Firefighters battled a massive wildfire that scorched a nature reserve in eastern Belgium and another on a Greek island near Athens where two people were killed on Sunday as hot and dry conditions fueled fires across parts of Europe.
A blaze in eastern Belgium burned about 30 square kilometers (12 square miles) in the High Fens, a large nature reserve, in one of the country’s worst wildfires in recent history.
About 600 residents in the nearby municipalities of Waimes and Bütgenbach, in Liège province near the German border, were told to evacuate on Saturday as winds shifted and smoke spread through the area. Authorities also advised tourists to leave, while a nearby gymnasium was opened to receive evacuees.
Liège provincial governor Hervé Jamar said in a statement Sunday that more than 250 emergency personnel have been deployed, including over 100 Belgian and German firefighters, as well as police and military officers and civil protection staff. Firefighting helicopters operated by Belgium’s federal police and the Netherlands also helped.
In Greece, two people were killed in a wildfire Sunday on the island of Salamina, west of Athens, Greek firefighters said.
The bodies were recovered in the village of Peristeria, where strong winds fueled the rapidly spreading blaze. A second blaze was reported in the Selini area. Firefighting and coast guard vessels evacuated some 500 beachgoers in the area.
Some 260 firefighters were responding to the blazes, including 15 ground teams, 10 aircraft and eight helicopters.
The island had been placed at high wildfire risk on Sunday, with near gale-force winds. “These conditions enabled the fire to quickly reach dangerous proportions and spread rapidly within seven minutes toward nearby residential areas,” said Fire Brigadier General Vasileios Vathrakogiannis.
The blaze now torching Belgium has far surpassed a 2011 fire that burned nearly 14 square kilometers (5.4 square miles) in the same area and was previously the country's largest wildfire on record, according to data from the European Forest Fire Information System.
Nicolas Yernaux, a spokesperson for the Public Service of Wallonia, said conditions were much worse this time. “We’re dealing with something much deeper because we have very dry soil,” he said.
René Dahmen, chief engineer at the Department of Nature and Forest, said the fire was still spreading Sunday in an area that was difficult for crews to reach.
“On the eastern flank, there’s a line at least a kilometer long where the fire is slowly advancing toward a municipal forest,” Dahmen said. “That’s the first priority now.”
Interior Minister Bernard Quintin said on X firefighters managed to keep the fire from spreading towards the west and toward the German town of Monschau.
In Germany, local authorities warned Sunday that the fire was about 1.5 kilometers (just under a mile) from the border.
Some farmers from both Belgium and Germany filled up tanker trucks, pumping water from a nearby lake before heading toward the fire area to help firefighters.
Belgium activated the European Union’s civil protection mechanism to receive assistance from other countries, EU Commissioner Hadja Lahbib, who is in charge of crisis management, said on X.
“The High Fens are burning. Belgium is not facing it alone,” Lahbib said. Sweden sent two water-bombing aircraft, while three helicopters — two from the Netherlands and one from the Czech Republic — were also being deployed.
The fire follows weeks of unusually hot and dry weather. The High Fens’ mix of heathland and peat bogs has complicated efforts to contain the flames.
Belgium was hit by another spell of intense heat this week, with temperatures reaching about 37 C (98.6 F) in parts of the country Friday.
In France, firefighters battling a wildfire in a pine forest in the southwestern Landes region faced no major flare-ups overnight, Landes Prefect Gilles Clavreul said. Authorities estimated the total area burned at 17 square kilometers (6.6 square miles), while about 650 people had been evacuated from their homes.
It was the third major wildfire in the vast pine forests of southwestern France this summer, following two others in late July. A massive wildfire in the neighboring Gironde department burned about 420 square kilometers (162 square miles) and forced the evacuation of about 220,000 people as it spread toward the Atlantic coast and the Bordeaux area.
In the U.K., emergency crews were fighting 14 wildfires in South Wales with the support of military personnel. Authorities warned that although the heat wave is easing, drought conditions mean the risk of wildfires remains high.
Fires gutted more than a dozen homes in the West Midlands in central England this week as officials recorded the hottest day of the year on Thursday, when temperatures reached 38.1 C (100.6 F).
In Germany, firefighters made significant progress against a wildfire in the Hürtgen Forest, allowing about 2,000 evacuated residents of Gey to return home Saturday. Officials said Sunday there were no open flames and crews had established a cleared cordon around the affected area to prevent the fire from spreading.
