Just in time for iPhone 16, the new Apple Watch, and AirPods 4, Journey is now ready to debut its latest charging solution known as the GLYDE 4-in-1. The brand says the GLYDE is the “world’s first charger with a retractable wireless charging lid,” combining a portable charging station with a 10,000mAh onboard power bank. Now available for purchase on the official Journey site, you’ll find a nice 20% pre-order discount available once it is added to your cart. 

While the first two editions of our new 9to5Toys Travel Kit series took us to the Big Apple and the swamps of Virginia and North Carolina, today we are focused on an overnighter wedding closer to home. The bulk of the event is going to be a lightweight affair and will only require a few things – suit, watch, some extras for the groomsmen, and an iPhone for the most part. But because I’ll be checking into a hotel room on the premises, I will need to put together a small kit with some must-have gear for an overnight wedding.

Update: As per usual, we are now seeing 5 to 10% on-page coupons across many of the new iPhone 16 Spigen cases.

The 2024 Spigen iPhone 16 case collection has now landed, with just about all of the new iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max models now available for purchase. The brand’s new affordable iPhone 16 cases are here and, much like year’s past, are offering a giant selection of models and colorways for each of Apple’s new iPhone 16 models. You’ll find all of the new cases up for purchase right now over on the brand’s official Amazon storefront and we will take a look at some of our favorites down below. 

Happy iPhone 16 delivery day folks! Whether you waited in line and already have one or are eagerly awaiting the delivery truck, we are here to make sure the App Store’s best price drops are front and center. You’ll want to check out our favorite MagSafe wallets for iPhone 16 as well as all of the most notable iPhone 16 case deals (that now include this wildly rare exclusive discount on the wonderful Nomad models), as well as the deals we spotted today on the most affordable M2 iPad Air, the Level Lock+ Connect smart lock with Apple Home Key, and this high-end M4 iPad Pro, but for now it’s all about the apps. Highlights today include titles like Poly Bridge, Spell Force, Endling, Temporal War, and more. Hit the jump for a closer look. 

We are now less than 12 hours from delivery day, so we thought it was time to rundown the best MagSafe wallets for iPhone 16. We have collected our favorite options for Apple’s latest handset below, some brand new, some classics, and all of them will work on all MagSafe-equipped iPhones. But if you just picked up a case for you new handset and are looking to grab a new card carrier you’ll find our favorites below, including full-grain and vegan leather, crystal clear, kickstand models, lockable designs, and even some with Find My tracking built-in. Head below to check out our favorite card carriers for Apple’s new iPhone 16 models. 

We all sort of thought it was coming about as much as we thought it definitely wasn’t, but Sony just debuted the official new 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Console Bundles in epic PS1 gray! The pre-orders for PS5 Pro are set to kick off in just under a week’s time, but Sony is landing today with an exciting new announcement to take its 30th anniversary celebration to the next level with the new PS5 Pro, PS5 Digital, all of its controls now receiving a special, nostalgic coat of gray paint and retro PlayStation logos. Scope it all out below. 

Not all MagSafe iPhone stands are made equal, some are high-end with premium materials and 15W charging, and some are more affordable and get the job done without breaking bank. And then there’s Belkin’s Apple DockKit model – one of the only stands there with official face-tracking action to keep you in frame no matter what your content creation endeavors entail. After debuting at CES and subsequently landing on the official Apple Store at $180, today we are tracking a relatively rare deal on the Belkin Auto-Tracking Stand Pro with DockKit down at $143.99 shipped via the official site – use code ATS20 if you don’t see the discount automatically in the cart. 

On the eve of iPhone 16 pre-order deliveries, we are here to serve up the day’s best price drops on the App Store. You’ll want to secure your new iPhone 16 case ASAP if you haven’t yet and we have the deals for you, including early discounts on official Apple cases with Camera Control, an exclusive offer on Arc’s metal iPhone 16 bumper cases, and even more in our roundup of the best iPhone 16 case deals now live from $14. Beyond that, scope out the discounts we have on today one OG Apple Watch Ultra at $350 off and the M3 Pro MacBook Pro with 18GB of RAM at $500 off, before you head below for all of today’s best iOS app deals and freebies. 

After taking a look at some of our favorite new Spigen models, today the elago AirPods 4 cases have surface on Amazon starting at even lower prices. We have been featuring the brand’s minimalist silicone and clear cases for some years now, but it is always its fun retro-inspired models that really catch our eye. The new AW5, or Game Boy-style case, as well as its vintage pager-style models are now ready to go for Apple’s new AirPods 4 that are set to begin shipping tomorrow, and everything is seeing some nice launch deals courtesy of the brand’s official Amazon storefront. Scope them out down below. 

One thing we don’t see very often, if ever, is super early deals on the brand new OtterBox accessories when Apple launches its new iPhone every year. That was seemingly the case again this year with its new iPhone 16 case collection, but we have now spotted some codes that knock up to 27% off the regular price on the cases. Simply add the case you want to your cart and apply the following codes one at a time, in this order: Use code Otter10 for 10% off, and then apply code OB17SAVE for up to 17% off. The actual amount these codes are knocking off seems to vary slightly from case to case, but everything we have tried lands at roughly 25% off, and, considering these are brand new releases, the best prices ever across the board anyway. 

Apple’s iPhone 16 has been all but confirmed to have upped the ante when it comes to wired charging prowess. We know it is capable of juicing up at 25W via Apple’s official new MagSafe charger when it comes to wireless action. But for you speed demons looking for the fastest possible juice up, cables remain your best option and we have organized some of our favorite options to help you get the job done. 

Your mid-week collection of the best App Store price drops and freebies are ready and waiting for you down below the fold. Just be sure to also check out the ongoing exclusive deal we have on Arc’s metal iPhone 16 bumper cases, the straight up $50 discount on the new black Apple Watch Ultra 2 for Best Buy members, this new all-time low on Belkin’s new versatile Qi2 15W MagSafe 3-in-1 Foldable Charger, and the previous-gen 11-inch iPad Pro at $600 off. Moving over to the apps, highlights include titles like Cosmic Express, Northland Heroes, Sokobond, 9th Dawn III, and more. Hit the jump for a closer look at all of Wednesday’s best iOS price drops. 

While it did start to slow up briefly, an alleged and quite substantial Switch 2 leak has hit the net with supposed renders of the new upcoming console as well as a host of details on the specs. Several of the details have been corroborated from various sites, but as usual, we have no inside details we can share at this time on the new Nintendo Switch 2, and all of this, despite being quite compelling, should be taken with a grain of salt. 

Bose has now officially unveiled its next-generation QuietComfort wireless earbuds. Very much like Apple just did at its Glowtime event just over a week ago, Bose isn’t dethroning its latest generation flagship QuietComfort Ultra earbuds – its direct competition for the AirPods Pro 2 – but rather updating its mid-ranger QuietComfort buds with the next-gen set. 

OnePlus is stepping in today with another solid offer on its latest tablet. The official site has now dropped the price on its new OnePlus Pad 2 down to $499.99 shipped from the regular $550 you’ll find at retailers like Amazon right now – it has yet to see any significant price drops there. But to sweeten the deal even more, quite a lot more in fact, you will also score a FREE set of OnePlus Buds 3 with your purchase today. So that’s $50 with a FREE set of $100 buds for a total savings of $150 today. Last time we featured a deal on the OnePlus Pad 2 it was at the same $450 but with a free folio case, which is arguably not quite as good as today’s earbuds offer. 

There’s nothing quite like a brand new M4 iPad Pro, but there are some massive price drops live on the previous-generation models right now too. Amazon is now offering the 2TB M2 iPad Pro in the 11-inch configuration down at $1,299 shipped. This deal is also available at Best Buy. You’re looking at a regularly $1,899 upgraded iPad Pro here that is now selling at $600 under the regular list price and coming in at $100 under our previous mention. 

Nintendo is expanding its Super NES Switch Online library today with four new titles headlined by Battletoads Double Dragon, classic arcade-style racing, and some retro Super Famicom dodge ball action. Roughly a week before the release of The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and following new additions to the service like these classic Mega Man titles and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team, all four of the new Switch Online games are available starting right now. Check out the details below. 

The official Govee Amazon storefront is now offering a notable limited-time Lightning deal on its smart Alexa/Google Assistant RGBIC Floor Lamp at $59.98 shipped. Regularly $100, this is 40% off the going rate, the lowest we have seen in months, and on par with the previous price drop we spotted back in May. This certainly isn’t the latest model in the lineup, but if you’re looking to secure the similar floor lamp from the brand with Matter support, it’s going to cost you $124.99 shipped on sale from the usual $160 price tag right now – check out our launch coverage from earlier this year on this model if you’re interested. 

Satechi debuted its new Find My passport wallet alongside the rest of the tech industry’s IFA launches, and following a string of models from other brand’s leveraging Apple’s item tracking action. But with Satechi being among our favorite accessory makers out there, and it’s latest release coming along with one very useful feature we have yet to see much from the competition, we decided to get hands-on to give it a run for its money. Head below for our hands-on impressions.

We have already detailed our favorite new iPhone 16 cases and some bands for Series 10 and Ultra 2, but now it’s time to look at some new AirPods 4 cases. Spigen always has a good selection of options for folks to safeguard their shiny new AirPods case without breaking the bank and we are ready to take a closer look at some of our favorite new releases from the brand for Apple’s latest buds. Just about all of them are seeing some launch deals on Amazon right now by way of on-page coupons too. Head below for a closer look. 

The new Eve Light Switch with Matter is debuting today. In the brand’s continued effort to future-proof its popular HomeKit smart home ecosystem, today Eve is launching its Light Switch with Matter, allowing the switch to be controlled directly via iOS 18 on iPhone 15 Pro and the new iPhone 16 devices without a home hub and play nice with the rest of the Matter gear in your setup. This, much like what we saw with its smart Weather Station back in July, also means the brand is serving up a free Matter firmware upgrade for existing owners of the third-generation Eve Light Switch via the Eve app. 

The official Anker Amazon storefront is now offering its GaNPrime 100W 727 Charging Station for $49.99 shipped when apply code ANKERA9126 at checkout. This model carries a regular price at $125 directly from the official Anker site, but has sold for much less at Amazon. It started the year at $100 before dropping into the $70 range and now down to one of the lowest prices we have tracked. Today’s deal undercuts the previous sale price by $2.50 and delivers the lowest price we can find on the slender 6-port charging station. 

The new Google Pixel Watch 3 arrived in mid August and we are now tracking the first chance to save on the official Google Pixel Watch 3 USB-C Fast Charging Cable courtesy of Amazon. Regularly $30, you can save 16% with a total down at $25.11. Shipping is free for Prime members or in orders over $35. This is indeed the first notable price drop we have tracked since it first landed on Amazon at the same time as the third-generation Google smartwatch – it also works with Google Pixel Watch 2 as well. 

If you missed out on some of the back to school offers we featured last month’s on Apple’s latest M3 MacBook Air, we have some spotted notable price drops to get you back in the game. Firstly, Amazon has now taken $200 off the 13-inch models with 16GB of RAM and $150 or more off the 15-inch models with the same 16GB of RAM upgrade. However, with some notable coupon offers, Adorama has the deals on the 15-inch model beat, and by quite a bit with up to $300 in savings to deliver some of the lowest prices we have tracked yet on both the M3 and previous-gen M2 models. Head below for a closer look. 

It’s official folks, Amazon has now announced this year’s fall Prime Day sale for October 8 and 9. Officially known as Prime Big Deal Days, this year’s event, as we predicted, will take place on the second Tuesday and Wednesday of the month, roughly seven weeks before the big Black Friday festivities kick off and in about three weeks from today. Amazon has taken to its official newsroom to set the Prime Big Deal Days in stone and we have all of the details you need waiting down below. 

Update: Amazon is now doing the same thing on the 46mm model with a light discount down to $419.99 shipped while the base model 42mm models are now starting at $386.99. 

Amazon really wants you to pre-order your new Apple Series 10 through its storefront. It is now offering the brand new GPS + Cell model in Jet Black, Rose Gold, and Silver down at $519.99 shipped. This new wearable carries a $529 MSRP and fetches as much everywhere else, of course. This is clearly just a tiny price drop, but if you’re about to pre-order one of these models, you might as well as keep the $9 in your pocket for coffee or lunch or something. But that’s only if you don’t plan on trading in a Series 9 for one – we are currently seeing Series 10 drop as low as $99 for the entry level models. 

Today’s collection of Android game and app deals from the Google Play Store are at the ready for you down below. Alongside deals on Lockly’s Flex Touch Google/Alexa smart lock, TCL’s 2024 The Frame-style 65-inch Google Smart TV, and Samsung’s regularly $400 all-black Galaxy Watch 6 Classic at $280, we also spotted the 2024 OnePlus 12R smartphone at $50 off with a FREE pair of earbuds. But for now it’s on to the apps, including titles like Clue (2024), Everybody’s RPG, Pocket Rogues: Ultimate, Front Armies [RTS], What Lies Underground, and more. Head below for a closer look at everything. 

This morning’s collection of iOS game and app deals ahead of iPhone 16 delivery day later this week is now ready to go. You’ll want to make sure you scope out all the sweet case deals we have rounded up for you right here to make sure it is ready to go when your phone is, and then scope out the offers we spotted on AirPods Pro 2, this new Spigen MagSafe T Ultra Hybrid iPhone 16 case with Camera Control, refurb AirPods Max at $250 off, Apple’s most affordable 13-inch M2 iPad Air, and the first deals on the new official Apple iPhone 16 silicone and clear cases. As for the apps, highlights include titles like Ace Attorney Trilogy, Roundguard, Poly Bridge 2, Bright Reappear, Ocean Keeper, and more. Head below for a closer look. 

Nintendo has now launched a notable Team17 sale via the eShop loaded with some wonderful indie titles for your digital library. The deals start from just $3.99 and span a sizable collection of the publisher’s titles. One that stands out for me here is Dredge down at $16.24 from the usual $25 price tag. Now 35% off the going rate you can now land this interesting “single-player fishing adventure with a sinister undercurrent” at the lowest price we can find. You’ll also find the DREDGE Pale Reach DLC marked down 20% to $4.79 on the eShop alongside the Blackstone Key DLC down at $3.99 to complete the experience too. Browse through the rest of the sale right here and head below for more.

Update: The 2024 Nintendo holiday console bundles are now up for pre-order at GameStop with one FREE game and 12-month Switch Online membership:

• OLED Mario Kart 8 bundle $350
• Standard Mario Kart 8 bundle $300

Nintendo has now officially announced this year’s Switch holiday bundles, and you guessed it…it’s Mario Kart, again. Nintendo has been serving up special holiday bundles every year since the debut of the Switch all those years ago, and it has, for the most part, been the same thing every year. It is getting very tired, despite the fact we are talking about a fascistic game with a fantastic system – this year there will be two bundles featuring Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. At least one is the OLED Switch? 

We have seen some cool new iPhone 16 cases this year, some with Camera control buttons, bumper cases with aerospace metal, and some gorgeous leather options, but we also just spotted Spigen’s new classic iPod-looking model. The brand is no stranger to introducing designs heavily-inspired by classic Apple gear, much like the G3 iMac case that is now live for iPhone 16, and for the launch of Apple’s latest it is also bringing back one of its iPod designs. Now available for purchase in Classic Black or Classic Silver for iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max, you can get a closer look at the new Spigen iPod case below. 

We spent some time over this past weekend discussing the iPhone 16 case options out there – specifically the difference between models with a cutout or the rare few with a proper Camera Control button. And the official Spigen Amazon storefront has now released the new Ultra Hybrid T MagFit iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max case in two colors: Frost Black and Graphite. Both models carry a regularly $30 list price on Amazon and are seeing a light launch deal bringing the price down to $28.49 with free shipping for Prime members or in orders over $35. 

There is one major distinction in the iPhone case market this year for the launch of Apple’s series 16 handsets, Camera Control. With the introduction of the new multi-gesture Camera Control button, case makers couldn’t simply just resize last year’s models in order to get their covers up for sale as fast as possible, they also had to decide how they were going to handle the extra functionality and hardware changes this new camera button ushered in. 

Amazon is now offering the very first price drops on the official Apple iPhone 16 Cases with MagSafe. This includes the new Silicone models and the Clear Cases in various colors for iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max. The regularly $49 cases are now marked down to $41.99 shipped via the official Apple Amazon storefront to deliver the lowest prices we can find anywhere and, frankly, surprising discounts just days after pre-orders went live for the new iPhone 16 models. While the 14% price drops here aren’t huge, any bit of savings counts and we are talking about one of only a handful of case models out there with proper Camera Control buttons. 

Let’s talk about how to get a deal on Apple Watch Series 10. Now officially revealed and up for pre-order, the new Apple Watch Series 10 with a new design – the first since 2021, thinner case, larger screen, and new watch faces. But let’s go over how to score one without paying full price. As we detailed in our pre-order post, folks with Amazon or Best Buy store credit/gift cards can now leverage it against one of the shiny new Apple Watch models, but Best Buy is now stepping in with elevated trade-in values that can net you the new Series 10 starting at just $99. Head below for more details. 

Anker has been on a roll lately with its new Prime Power Stations followed by some of its new releases at IFA this year, but we just spotted one of its latest new gadgets for iPhone 16. The new Anker MagGo USB-C Adapter delivers microSD card reading functionality to iPhone 16 (and previous models) by way of a small MagSafe puck of sorts and a tight, integrated wrap-around USB-C cable. Now available on Amazon with a nice launch deal when paired with any of the accessories on this page, get a closer look below at the new iPhone 16 microSD card reader gadget. 

Welcome to our roundup of all the best iPhone 16 case deals now live for pre-order day. We have featured a number of these options elsewhere over the last few days, but we thought with millions of folks placing pre-orders on their shiny new iPhone 16 today it would be handy to have all of our favorites ready and waiting in one handy place for you. There is likely to be more to come in the coming days and into next week, but there are some fantastic options up for grabs right now, and some of them are scheduled to end this evening. Jump in to our collection of the best iPhone 16 case deals down below and be sure to swing back around later as we update with additional discounts.

Your Friday afternoon edition of the best Android price drops courtesy of the Google Play Store are now ready to go. The wide-ranging Samsung Discover fall sale will be wrapping up soon, so be sure to check out the best post-release deals on the new Galaxy Buds 3 and Galaxy Watch Ultra alongside today’s offers on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 tablets, this new low on OnePlus Nord Buds 3 Pro, and the 50% price drop on the Google Nest Audio Smart Speakers.

The new Native Union iPhone 16 cases and accessories are now available for purchase just in-time for pre-order day. The brand is once again delivering its eco-conscious and recycled (RE)CLASSIC 3.0 alongside the ACTIVE model that “combines extra-durable drop protection with elevated materials” and the (RE)CLEAR model for folks that want to let that Teal or Desert Titanium shine through. All of these models are joined by the new Native Union City Grip lanyard wrist strap and are now available for purchase. Head below for a closer look and more details on our favorites. 

Sony has now launched its latest PlayStation weekend sale. Just after the full official reveal of PlayStation 5 Pro earlier this week, it is giving its player base a chance to load up on discounted DLC and some smaller indie titles to enjoy before the beefy pro machine lands in November. There are nearly 250 titles and add-on packs marked down right now including Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection on PS4 and PS5 down at $14.99. Regularly $40 on the PlayStation Store, this 13-game collection typically sells for $30 on Amazon and you can score a physical copy there down at $19.93 Prime shipped. But unless you want the box for your shelf, you can start downloading all of these classic Turtles games right now for even less via PSN. 

While you can still score a pre-order on the new Nintendo Switch Lite: Hyrule Edition with the bonus Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack at $209.99 ($40 in savings), Amazon just dropped the standard edition Turquoise model down at $169.99 shipped. Regularly $200, this is a solid 15% price drop and a relatively rare one at that. Deals on Switch Lite don’t come around all that often, but when they do, they also don’t tend to stick around for very often. If you’re looking to nab a spare or one to keep the kids away from the main system, now’s your shot. 

Some folks are die-hard AirPods Max fans, but Apple just unleashed the new set with USB-C charging and brand new color options. They unfortunately come with the same $549 MSRP as the original sets, but you can leverage the pair you already have to bring the price down if you’re looking to upgrade the newer models. We totally understand that just about everyone was hoping for a more significant upgrade on AirPods Max this year, but if you are looking to upgrade, you can leverage the set you have now to score $130 off your pre-order of the new AirPods Max USB-C before they ship on September 20. Head below to find out more. 

The new Apple Watch Series 10 and the new black Ultra 2 are now available for pre-order with the first units set to arrive on wrists everywhere very soon. Now seems a fitting time to go over some of our favorite new bands. Even though the new 42mm and 46mm models are compatible with the massive selection of bands already out there for Series 8 and 9, Apple has released a collection of new color options for its designs and we have featured a number of new releases from some of the top brands in the business this year already, alongside the new black titanium models to link up nicely with Apple’s stealthy new Ultra 2. Head below for our favorite Apple Watch bands for the new Seires 10 and Ultra 2.

Another one of the staple iPhone case brands is now ready to serve up its loyal fan base as the new OtterBox iPhone 16 collection is now live and ready to go. OtterBox is one of the original iPhone case makers but it has since expanded its lineup to range from the ultra-protective cases it in many ways cut its teeth on right through to some of the more fun, colorful models and even casual plant-leather daily drivers to safeguard your device from bumps and bruises. The whole lineup is now live for iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and the iPhone 16 Pro Max. Head below for more details and a closer look at some of our favorites. 

Today only, as part of the ongoing fall Discover Samsung sale, you’ll find up to $700 in savings on the latest The Frame smart TVs alongside solid offers on the still more than capable previous-generation versions. Much like last time, the headliner option here is the latest 75-inch LS03D 4K The Frame QLED Smart TV down at $2,299.99 shipped directly from Samsung. You will also find this model matched at Amazon where it is now sitting within few bucks of its all-time low price. Regularly $3,000, you’re looking at a straight up $700 in savings and the lowest we can find. And remember, while both retailers allow you to configure the Frame with an add-on bezel in your color choice at an extra fee, it is not necessary.
