After we saw major price hikes across the portable SSD space in 2024, and finding myself in need of at least one more modestly-sized external storage solution, the PNY RP60 kept coming back up for a few reasons. But the most glaring details that had me leaning in its direction was the fact that it was a relatively new option from a relatively affordable storage brand – the RP60 is indeed one of the least pricey 1TB portable SSDs rated for speeds up to 2,000MB/s right now from a trusted brand. Head below for our hands-on impressions.  

Samsung has just taken the stage at its latest Unpacked event to officially reveal the new Galaxy S25, S25+, and Galaxy S25 Ultra smartphones and the preorder deals are already live! While the deals we have already detailed directly on the Samsung site are incredibly enticing – you can get up to $300 in storage upgrades alongside a bonus $50 credit via our links to use towards accessories, on top of massive trade-in value, Amazon is also getting in on the action now too. 

Apple’s Find my tech has made its way into key organizers and passport wallets, wall chargers and wallet cards (among other things), and I’m loving it. We also just happen to spot this relatively new FlashFinder Keychain Flashlight on Amazon with onboard Find My tech alongside a notable launch deal down at $23.79 – clip the on-page coupon. Shipping is free for Prime members or in orders over $35. This unit landed on Amazon for the first time a few weeks ago at $28 and is now at the lowest price we have seen yet. 

What are the Nintendo Switch 2 launch games? We aren’t exactly sure just yet beyond what will likely be Mario Kart 9. But we did spot an official Nintendo retail listing pointing at a new 3D Mario game, Zelda remakes, and more. Scope out the details below.

If you haven’t picked up a copy of Super Mario RPG yet, Target has it on sale for $30 with free shipping for Target 360 members or in orders over $35 (you can also opt for free in-store pickup where available). This is a regularly $60 title seeing a solid 50% price drop to deliver the lowest we can find – it is currently up at full price via Best Buy and is no longer available at the $33 we were tracking in the ongoing Woot sale over the last few months. While at this point everyone is really just waiting for Switch 2 to land and what will likely be the official reveal of the new Mario Kart 9, you’re going to need some games to tide you over until the April Direct, pre-order phase following that, and the likely release come sometime this summer (here’s the latest on how much the Switch 2 might cost) – the Super Mario RPG remake is a great way to do just that, especially at 50% off. 

How much will Nintendo Switch 2 cost? What will the price be on the launch bundle? Let’s dive in. The new Nintendo console is officially inbound and likely this summer, but what will the new Switch 2 price be? While we do know a fair amount about the new console – backwards compatibility, likely Mario Kart 9 launch title, magnetic Joy-Con, larger display/form-factor, and more – there are also a ton of questions remaining. Can the Joy-Con also be used like a mouse? What is the actual Switch 2 release date? and, perhaps most importantly, what is the Nintendo Switch 2 price going to be? 

The new Samsung Galaxy S25 is inbound and very soon now. We have been covering a steady string of rumors on the new features, launch dates, and more, but we know now the new handset will be officially unveiled during a January 22 Unpacked event and the Samsung Reserve campaign is now in full effect, offering folks a no-strings attached FREE $50 credit just for dropping down an email address on this page. 

Welcome to 9to5Toys News Weekly – your go-to spot to catch up on the latest new product releases, features, and hands-on reviews. This weekly roundup collects all of the coolest new gadgets, the most interesting updates in the world of tech, and more from the past week, and organizes it into a single handy reading list for you to sift through every Sunday morning. This week we have some new UGREEN tech, in the form of its latest Apple Find My wallet tracker card and its new MagSafe aluminum SSD enclosure, joining a hands-on look at the Roborock Qrevo Curv and, of course, all of the details on the official reveal of the new Nintendo Switch 2.

One of the best and most useful items I have added to my EDC over the last year has been a Find My wallet tracker card. I don’t want to have to choose one of the wallets that have Find My built-in as I still like to carry a traditional card holder in my pocket, as opposed to a bifold or a MagSafe solution, and a Tiny tracker car is the perfect way to add the Apple location tech to my, or anyone’s, preferred traditional wallet. While I absolutely love the Nomad Tracking Card, there are more affordable solutions out there and we just spotted the latest from UGREEN – it also happens to be seeing a sweet launch deal on Amazon right now. 

The countdown to finally bring home the new Nintendo Switch 2 is officially on. While we all anxiously await the early April Nintendo Direct for more details on the upcoming console, Nintendo is already planning some early hands-on events and anyone has a shot to get it on the action. While these early hands-on looks are sometimes only for members of the press, the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 experience is actually open to all and registration starts this afternoon. 

Update: While Samsung is still offering the $100 credit detailed below. Best Buy is also now getting in on the action – “sign up now to be among the first to discover Samsung’s upcoming 2025 TVs and audio devices and get a $100 credit to use on your qualifying purchase.”

The Samsung Galaxy S25 is on the way, Samsung is offering folks a FREE $50 credit just for dropping their email down, and now it is doing the same for its upcoming smart TV and home theater lineup. All you have to do is drop your name and email down to secure a FREE $100 pre-order credit – and remember you don’t actually have to end up pre-ordering anything, this is just in case you do. 

The Spigen Klasden Carrying Pouch specifically Nintendo Switch 2 has already surfaced on Amazon. Nintendo finally unveiled its next-generation console this morning and it’s only a matter of time before the internet is flooded with accessories for the new console, but it appears Spigen is one of the first options out of the gate. It is now available for purchase on Amazon at $34.99 and hints at a larger form-factor compared to the original Switch.

It finally happened folks…the Switch 2 has arrived and the countdown to release starts now. Nintendo finally unveiled the first look trailer for the next-generation console this morning, as you likely already know, promising what sounds like a complete rundown of its feature set in early April. But we can already deduce a number of details about the console, the Switch 2 launch title(s), as well as a launch window, among other things. Head below for everything we know about Nintendo Switch 2 as of right now. 

The Nintendo Switch 2 is official. Nintendo has now revealed its next-generation console officially known as the Nintendo Switch 2. It has been a long hard road to today’s reveal, but it has finally happened to kick off the new year, just like Nintendo promised it would. A full Nintendo Switch 2 Direct showcase will go live on April 2, 2025. Let’s-a-go!

Update 2/20: The PlayStation Midnight Black releases today, and you’ll find all of the new gear now live at Amazon and elsewhere.

PlayStation 5 Midnight Collection gear preorders kick off today. Last week Sony unveiled its all new Midnight Collection PlayStation 5 accessories to the world and the pre-sale starts today. The PlayStation pre-order events for the new pro model consoles, and perhaps even more so the PlayStation 30th anniversary gear, were some of the hottest releases in all of gaming last year, but today Sony is ready to start taking orders on its all-new stealthy black peripherals. 

The massive New Year PlayStation sale is now in full swing, but if you didn’t pick up a copy of Madden NFL 25 for your Xbox collection over the holidays last year, you can grab a digital version from Amazon right now for even less. The regularly up to $70 title is now over $40 in physical form, but you can now scoop up a digital copy down at just $20.99 via Amazon with free digital delivery. Amazon also has one of the lowest prices yet on the digital version of College Football 25 for Xbox at $27.99, also with free digital delivery and down from the regular $70 list price. Head below for even more.

Spigen’s hybrid Titanium Keychain Pocket Knife with carabiner clip has a bene a popular piece of gear around here, but a new model from the brand has recently surfaced alongside a companion wall-mounted magnetic hub. This time around Spigen is taking a more mainstream and slightly more casual approach with its new Spigen Life Magnetic Key Ring Carabiner clip while also launching a new hub you can magnetically connect it to in between use to stay organized. Get a closer look down below. 

Sony has now taken to the official PlayStation Blog to officially announce another massive sale event. The PlayStation Store New Year Deals is going live starting today with up 80% off a gigantic collection of digital games, DLC expansions, and add-on packs with deals on everything from newer releases right through to some classics and older PS4/PS5 titles to shore up your digital game collection. 

Approaching the end of 2024 I was on the hunt for a something I can charge my Apple Watch with on-the-go. But not just something like those puck-style travel chargers, or even just an alternative to the magnetic charging cable Apple ships with its wearables, something truly portable, something battery-powered that I can use anywhere and just about anytime that also supports the rest of my Apple kit. Dive in below for my hands-on impressions of the Journey GLYDE 4-in-1 Portable Charging Station that does just that.

This afternoon’s roundup of the best Android game and app deals courtesy of Google Play is now ready to go. Today’s app deals are sitting alongside the B&H MEGA DEAL ZONE sale with memory cards and camera gear from $2 as well as this deal on Samsung’s fastest 200MB/s memory card and the OnePlus Nord N30 smartphone with a FREE set of $100 OnePlus Buds 3. As for the apps, highlights include Infinite Links, Afterplace, a series of freebie icons packs, and more. Head below for a closer look. 

The new slate of Thunderbolt 5 hubs are arriving and one of our favorite brands in the space has now unleashed its latest. The OWC Thunderbolt 5 Hub was showcased at CES 2025 this year and is now ready to expand your Thunderbolt 5 I/O capabilities alongside power passthrough action and additional monitor support. Now available for purchase on Amazon and directly from OWC, get a closer look and more details on the brand’s new Thunderbolt 5 Hub below. 

Joining the ongoing all-time low on the official 2024 Tan Apple Watch Ultra Alpine Loop as well as the Apple braided and silicone Solo Loops from $20, Amazon is now giving Apple Watch Ultra owners a shot at the latest version of its Milanese Loop in black down at $172.99 shipped. Regularly $199, this is nearly 15% off and matching the lowest price we have tracked all-time. 

Shortly after the reveal of the Jet Black Apple Watch Series 10 and the new black Ultra 2, one of our favorite band makers debuted one of the most premium and gorgeous new titanium bands to match. The new SANDMARC Grade 5 Titanium Edition Apple Watch Ultra 2 band is now available for purchase at $349.99 in black or natural finishes, but our exclusive 9TO5TOYS code drops it down to $314.99 shipped. Our code will also knock the more affordable model Grade 2 and stainless steel models down in price at checkout as well, for the record. 

In what has been a near endless string of rumors over the last couple years, leaks and details on the next Switch console are seriously starting to ramp up lately, with several industry insiders and those in the know suggesting the official announcement of Switch 2 could be just days away now.

These stealthy new editions deliver a midnight black paint job to the PlayStation Portal remote player, DualSense Edge wireless controller, Pulse Elite wireless headset, and Pulse Explore wireless earbuds. Scope them out below. 

CES 2025 is in its final throws, so we thought we would touch down to celebrate our personal favorite reveals from Las Vegas this year. We have already rounded up a massive list of the coolest new gear from the show, but this is our very favorite, our very own CES best of awards if you will. There has been some sweet new reveals outside of CES this week, including the new Midnight collection PlayStation 5 accessories as well as an epic new official LEGO Game Boy set, but for now we are focused on our favorite gear that was showcase at CES 2025.

We now have a look at the latest Target New Year deal ad, highlighting 26-pages worth of deals set to go live this weekend at the major national retailer. Much like we saw last week, many of the deals are focused on helping you with your New Year’s health and fitness resolutions as well as updating your kitchen setup and your gym bag, not to mention a host of bonus gift card options on top of the deals. Scope out the latest 26-page Target deal ad below.

But for now it’s all about the apps, including titles like Secret of Mana, Adventures of Mana, Legend of Mana, Trials of Mana, Chicken Police, SpongeBob – The Cosmic Shake, and more. Head below for a closer look. 

All of the best and most interesting to new gear from CES 2025 is being collected for you right here. The latest in smart home advancements and display tech to the suite of AI features seemingly getting injected into just about all of it, and everything in between, we will be rounding up the most intriguing new reveals and prototypes as well as products you’ll actually be able to get your hands-on this year down below.

A new and likely quite epic Nintendo and LEGO kit of some kind appears to be on the way. Nintendo just teased a mildly cryptic new collaboration between the two beloved brands that looks a lot like there’s (definitely) going to be a super sweet LEGO Game Boy of my dreams coming soon. 

While there are still some hangover Google holiday deals on many of its latest release for another week or so, Amazon is now offering a massive price drop Google Pixel 8 Pro for folks not bothered with the latest and greatest. You’ll now find the unlocked 128GB Google Pixel 8 Pro on sale for $599 shipped. This model still carries a $999 list price straight from Google – the same price it has regularly fetched at Amazon over the last year. While we have seen several price drops to $649 and $749 over that time frame, but nothing quite as low as the $400 price drop we are tracking today at Amazon. 

Update: The Galaxy Fit3 is now available for purchase and the Galaxy A16 should be any minute now.

Earlier this month Samsung announced its ultra budget-friendly Galaxy A16 smartphone and Galaxy Fit3 wearable fitness tracker would be coming stateside, and today is the day. The Galaxy A16 carries a super digestible $199.99 list price for folks looking for a casual smartphone experience while the Galaxy Fit3 is set to land today at $59.99 with an aluminum body and 1.6-inch display. On top of that, you’ll be able to land the Galaxy Fit3 at 50% off with the purchase of the A16. Additional details below. 

Amazon is giving folks another chance to secure a physical copy of Resident Evil 4 on PS5 down at $19.97 with free shipping for Prime members or in orders over $35. After going in and out of stock over the last couple months, it is once again available on par with the lowest we have tracked on Amazon. Regularly $30 and currently on sale via Best Buy at $22, this is the lowest price we can find and another notable chance to secure a copy of the RE4 remake while the price is right. Head below for even more PS5, Xbox, and Switch game deals. 

The first official Xbox Developer_Direct showcase of 2025 has now been set in stone. For those unfamiliar, the Developer_Direct streams are where Xbox gives its third-party devs a chance to showcase their upcoming new titles and the first new looks of the year are set to stream live later this month, including a trip to id software for a more detailed look at DOOM: The Dark Ages. Head below for additional details. 

We have already featured Satechi’s new M4 Mac mini Stand & Hub as well as its new metal travel charger, but the brand isn’t quite finished with its CES reveals just yet. Today it is officially unveiling its SM3 Mechanical Backlit Bluetooth Keyboard – its very first full-size mechanical model. 

Update: The new white model Authentics 200 Google/Alexa smart speaker with AirPlay detailed below is now up for purchase over at Amazon. 

The JBL Authentics Home Speaker lineup is one of the more compelling of its type out there, especially for those firmly planted in the Google and Amazon Alexa ecosystem. It also happens to be one of the more attractive with hits of metal and fabric-wrapped surfaces, but JBL has decided to give the lineup a makeover by way of a new white treatment that is debuting as part of the CES 2025 festivities. 

Walmart is now offering the sweet Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed Deluxe Edition on Nintendo Switch down at $30. Shipping is free for Walmart+ members (free trial here). Regularly $60 and now even less than the standard edition at Amazon, this is 50% off and the lowest price we have tracked on the complete edition. It includes the main game alongside a host of extra goodies for collectors, including the SteelBook case, four pin badges made to look like the belt buckles of each Turtle, four keychains resembling the weapons of each Turtle, and a softcover art book featuring loads of imagery and insights on the characters, development process, and more – everything comes in a collector’s box too. We do not expect this deal to stick around for much longer. 

The Switch 2 has to be coming soon right? The latest rumors suggest Nintendo’s next hardware release will be launching in April, and this time the details are coming from a Switch accessory maker that seems to be claiming to have the unit, or at the least the official specs. Details and a closer look at a mockup from the brand can be found below. 

As you likely already know from our launch coverage over at 9to5Google, the new OnePlus 13 has officially arrived and is now available for purchase. While there were some notable early bird offers for folks willing to drop down $50 to secure the new phone before all of the details were made public, the launch deals are actually quite notable anyway. Firstly you can get a storage upgrade worth $100 on OnePlus and claim your choice of a FREE $230 OnePlus Watch 2R or a pair FREE pair of its $180 OnePlus Buds Pro 3. But there is also a solid Best Buy gift card option as well down below. 

Chargers-equipped with retractable USB-C aren’t an entirely new thing, but it has certainly been permeating the device accessory power ecosystem as of late and CES 2025 is no exception. First Anker unleashed its new power bank featuring an onboard cord extensions, and next up we have the latest from Baseus – the Enercore charger lineup and the Baseus PrimeTrip VR2 Max that both feature a pair of its own extendable and retractable USB-C cables. 

We love our Find My gear around here, that’s for sure, and the latest release out of the gate comes from affordable accessory brand Spigen. It has unleashed its new Tag Me Apple Find My tracker tags, complete with replaceable batteries and a removable lanyard strap. Now available for purchase with discounted launch pricing – the 4-pack is down from $70 to $47.99, or $12 a pop – and you can get even more details down below. 

This afternoon’s collection of Android game and app deals courtesy of Google Play is now ready to go down below, as per usual. On your way down, check out the offers we are tracking on the Razer Kishi V2 gamepad for just $40 as well as Crucial’s 1TB rugged aluminum portable SSD, Bose’s latest 2nd-gen SoundLink Flex Bluetooth speaker, and be sure to go drop your email down to score FREE $50 credit ahead of this month’s Galaxy S25 debut. As for the apps, highlights include Poosh XL, Front Armies, Skel and Defense, Argo’s Choice, and more. Head below for a closer look.

• OntheGo 3-in-1 Charger $99.99
• OntheGo 2-in-1 Charger $69.99

Satechi has already unleashed the details on one of the best new Apple accessories of CES 2025 with its Stand & Hub for the M4 Mac mini, but the tech brand isn’t done just yet. Today it is officially unveiling its new premium vegan leather OntheGo Qi2 chargers to expand its lineup of travel-ready tech, headlined by what is for me the best MagSafe, Apple Find My passport wallet in the business. Scope out the new OntheGo chargers below.
