The gist: The long-awaited remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for Nintendo Switch 2 launches next Thursday, November 5th. In other words, you have a week remaining to secure your physical edition with a $10 discount at Amazon and Walmart. Once the game launches, the physical version will almost certainly go from $59.
The gist: Amazon used to blast out dozens of products onstage at annual hardware events. If this October is any indication, the company has wisely changed its strategy to put more focus on each new product with its own launch. The latest round of launches focuses on Echo products, including speakers, smart displays, as well as a
The gist: The Remarkable Paper Pro Move is essentially a digital notepad, with a skinny 7.3-inch E Ink screen that’s easy to hold one-handed to jot down notes or ideas. At $449 new, it’s not exactly cheap, but buying refurbished is a way to save, as always. Remarkable itself offers the refurbished Paper Pro Move for that […]
The gist: The Crkd Nitro Deck was a saving grace for the original Nintendo Switch. The slide-on $59.99 accessory brought Hall effect sticks to drift-plagued consoles - no need to open up your Joy-Con for a complicated repair. The Nitro Deck 2, made for both the original Switch and the larger Switch 2, continues the tradition of
The gist: A lot of people are snagging a PlayStation 5 ahead of Grand Theft Auto VI’s November 19th launch. You could pay full price at one of many retailers, but why do that when you can save $100 on a Sony-refurbished console that has the same one-year warranty? It’s a great time to consider one because […]
The gist: You can outfit your iPad Air or iPad Pro with one of Apple’s slick Magic Keyboards for considerably less than the accessory usually costs at Woot. I won’t bury the catch I teased in the headline; These cases have a 90-day warranty via Woot, and aren’t eligible for AppleCare. That said, Woot says they’re in […]
The gist: There are quite a few 5K monitors out there. Many of them are designed to appeal to Mac users who are looking for cheaper Studio Display alternatives without giving up the pixel-dense 218ppi screen. However, if you’re interested in hearing about one with gaming chops, Samsung’s 27-inch Odyssey G80HF seems like one of t
The gist: Looking for a way to try the haptics-equipped G Pro X2 Superstrike wireless gaming mouse without spending full price? You probably aren’t alone. Logitech’s now-last-gen right-handed mouse is a great PC gaming companion that mimics the feel of mechanical switches with nothing but haptics. You can grab it refurbished thr
The gist: Best Buy has a great deal for the rest of the day on the M4 Mac Mini base model that has 16GB RAM and a 256GB SSD. Normally, it doesn’t make a ton of sense to buy the M4 model for its usual $799 price given that the newer, faster M6 version has been available […]
The gist: The Legion Go S with SteamOS is a pretty solid alternative to the $789 Steam Deck OLED. It runs identical software, but ships in a design with two-stage triggers, a bigger eight-inch IPS screen (1080p and up to 120Hz versus 800p and 90Hz in the Deck OLED), and it’s got double the RAM and storage […]
The gist: Apple's iPhone Duo foldable phone opens for preorder tomorrow, October 16th, at 8am ET / 5am PT, but you don't have to wait until then to get your order mostly sorted. The company's product page for the phone now lets you select the color you want, along with storage capacity, carrier preference, and whether you […]
The gist: There are several deals happening right now on video games and gaming-related tech that are worth sharing. To start, this month’s Humble Choice drop of Steam PC games is really good. The $14.99 per month service is offering subscribers Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, Price of Persia: The Lost Crown, Psychonauts
The gist: With its upcoming remake for the Switch 2, Nintendo might have nailed the best thing about The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: its timelessness. The 1998 3D action adventure game for the Nintendo 64 that pioneered so much - 3D graphics, movement, exploration, openness - has been reengineered with changes that make it
The gist: Apple is getting into smart displays with its new HomeView. It has a seven-inch squircle design, looking similar to a gargantuan Apple Watch mounted to a speaker base. The $299 HomeView is meant to be the centerpiece for Apple's big push into the home, as it's capable of controlling a host of smart home tech. […]
The gist: After nearly six years, Apple debuted a new, improved HomePod Mini. The $149 HomePod Mini 2 will launch on Friday, October 30th, and you can place a preorder now through Apple. The speaker includes the S10 chip, which debuted in the Apple Watch Series 10, and it can power a host of features. It will […]
The gist: Apple debuted its latest Apple TV 4K - its first in four years - and it'll be available starting Friday, November 13th. It's powerful, with the A19 chip (the now-discontinued 2022 model has the A15 Bionic), plus a dedicated AV1 decoder, and it features better wireless connectivity than its predecessor, too. Siri AI is
The gist: Most companies have slowed down releasing new Switch 2 cases, but one of my favorite accessory makers recently debuted its first, after a few delays. The $49 Basecase from Mechanism is a snap-on shell for the console that taps into the company's modular lineup of mounts. You could already mount the Switch 2 in numerous
The gist: It’s always a little awkward when this many deals survive what was supposed to be the “end” of a big Amazon sale. Nevertheless, I’m happy to say that most of the sale’s heaviest-hitting deals are still around — Apple’s discounts on its Mac Mini, MacBook Air, and AirPods Pro 3, plus all of Sony’s current […]
The gist: Just over a week ago, we covered a deal at Amazon that knocked around 30 percent off Roku’s new (and first-ever) OLED TVs. The deal expired, but has returned for the final day of October Prime Day. The 55-inch Pro Series OLED is $699.99 at Amazon, which is 30 percent off its list price. The […]
The gist: Several configurations of the Apple Watch Series 12 are $50 off for the first time for the remainder of Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days. This includes both sizes (42mm and 46mm) of the GPS + Wi-Fi watches, as well as their pricier 5G-ready counterparts. Normally $399, the 42mm Series 12 is currently set at $349.99 […]
The gist: Xreal launched its xbx A01 Plus display glasses over the summer for $299, and they’re a decent value. The design and fit are more or less on-par with the company’s pricier 1S that are $399, though they don’t have my favorite feature: built-in three degrees of freedom to let you lock the virtual screen in […]
The gist: For a while, I swore by Bissell’s Little Green carpet cleaner. I liked the sub-$100 price, the fact that it was small enough to fit on a closet shelf, and that it does a good job of cleaning up little messes. However, after you clean enough spots around the place, eventually the entire carpet needs […]
The gist: Day two of Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days event is here, and the sale will end at 3AM ET on Thursday, October 8th. While a few of the best deals from yesterday have already ended, many are still happening, with fresh discounts emerging to make the last day of the sale just as worthy of […]
The gist: Calling something “last-gen” usually means it comes with big compromises compared to the latest version. That’s not as true for the last-gen Kindle Paperwhite as it is with some other tech. The newer version can open books 30 percent faster (not the same as page-turning speed), and its aluminum design is a millimeter t
The gist: You could spend a lot on gadgets in our main October Prime Day roundup and get maybe one or two things. That’s all well and good, but you could spend as much (or less) and have a bunch of items arrive at your home instead. If you’re on a tight budget, or you just have […]
The gist: I don’t suppose there are many iPhone users who might be tempted by the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 now that the iPhone Duo is both real and coming very soon. But if you’ll entertain a great deal, there are big discounts happening for both the passport-style Z Fold 8 and the slimmer, taller Z […]
The gist: Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days (also known as October Prime Day) is here, serving as a precursor to Black Friday and Cyber Monday. There are a ton of good deals, and bundling them all into this package is the easiest way to keep the blast of upcoming coverage under control. Below, you’ll find every deal […]
The gist: Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days event has begun, and it lasts through 3AM ET on Thursday, October 8th. We’ve spun through the company’s huge list of deals to find products that Verge readers will like (and that we personally like, too). Prime subscribers can get in on plenty of headphone deals, plus some great products […
The gist: Really the only negative associated with the new M6-powered Mac Mini is its high price. While the last-gen model debuted at just $599, the faster, but mostly unchanged 2026 edition starts at $899 — except for right now. You can grab the base model that has 256GB of storage, 16GB RAM, and a 12-core CPU […]
The gist: It’s been a while since we’ve seen a good discount on the Apple AirPods Pro 3, but like the latest iPad Mini and the M5 MacBook Airs, a great one is happening now for October Prime Day. You can snag a pair of the noise-canceling earbuds that include five ear tip sizes, live translation, and […]
