It's $89

Note: The most controversial change about this model comes in the form of pogo pins for charging. Xteink did away with the USB-C port on the newer model, and some people simply can’t get past that, even though it comes with a pogo to USB-C adapter. Some people got so miffed by this that Xteink announced they plan to bring back USB-C ports on future devices.

That's the specific reason I bought my older model Xteink. I wanted USB-C port. Totally worth it for me. So just know that this version being sold right now does NOT have USB-C port. Future models will.

Was about to be upset since I just bought an older one on ebay, but if this doesn’t have the usb c then that’s still just fine.

You did good. The older ones work fine, and the fact that they still have USB-C makes them totally worth it.

I'm sure new adapter works fine and all, but I'm just tired having different cords and adapters, etc. I'm a USB-C or die person now.
