Belkin has now unleashed its new all-in-one Connect USB-C 11-in-1 Pro GaN Dock. The new pro-grade solution combines 150W of charging juice with an 11-port hub to power and connect your entire desktop workstation, be it Windows or Mac based. Now available for purchase on Amazon and on its official site with a BOGO offer, you can get a closer look at the specs and feature set down below. 

Update 2: Amazon is now offering the first cash discount on the iPad mini (A17 Pro) 256GB configuration at $589 shipped. That is only $10 off, and the Best Buy trade-in value below is clearly far better, but you can save some coffee money right now if you’re looking to go new.

Update: All of the new iPad mini (A17 Pro) configurations are now available on Amazon from $499, but there are now trade-in offers at this time. 

Let’s talk about how to get a deal on the new iPad mini. The new Apple iPad mini 7 has now arrived with pre-orders kicking off today. Packed with the A17 Pro chip, an Apple Pencil Pro-ready design, and support for Apple Intelligence, pre-orders are now live and we are here to help you score a deal. As of right now, early listings are starting to go live at Apple and major retailers, which means there’s a chance to save hundreds with trade-ins. Today we are going to take a look at some options courtesy of Best Buy that can net you up to $260 off the $499 MSRP on the new 7th generation mini, and that’s just with a previous-generation iPad mini 6. Head below for more details on how to score a deal on the new iPad mini 7. 

While Anker has upgraded its Prime power gear with a new flat-style 240W power strip, the previous-gen 2023 model Anker Prime 6-in-1 USB-C Charging Station is still a solid option and a significantly less pricey one at that. The new 2024 model carries a regular price tag at $165 and is currently selling for $145 at Amazon where it has never dropped below $100 (this was the fall Prime Day deal), but you can now score the 2023 model down at $69.99 shipped via Anker’s Amazon storefront or its official site right now. Regularly $100 these days (it launched last year at $110), this is at least 30% off, the lowest price we can find, and $20 under the previous deal price. 

Today, Satechi is officially launching its next-generation Qi2 Trio Wireless Charging Pad. Delivering a more premium aluminum build alongside the ability to charge your gear in an entirely flat position or at a heads-up viewing angle for a proper desktop MagSafe-ready stand setup, it is now available for purchase with an included 45W power adapter. Head below for a closer look. 

Moment has been a staple brand around for years, delivering some of the better camera lens attachments in the game while accommodating them by way of its iPhone 16 Camera Case with the built-in Drop-In Lens Mount. It has been popular among readers for good reason, and it’s time to put its new iPhone 16 model to the test to make sure it’s up to par with the Camera Control button and Apple’s latest handset design. 

Nomad is one of our favorite iPhone case makers – this should come as no surprise considering how much I just praised its gorgeous Traditional full-wrap leather iPhone 16 model (I’m using it right now). But for folks not upgrading to iPhone 16 anytime soon, it has now moved just about all of its wonderful leather and sport iPhone 15 cases over to clearance pricing with solid 30% price drops. While you will find some deals on its official Amazon store right now, selection is extremely limited. Deals on Nomad gear are hard to come by. It does happen from time-to-time, but it’s seldom at best. Starting today, you’ll find a giant collection of the iPhone 15 models at 30% off waiting over on this landing page (just above the iPhone 13 and 14 models) – we will highlight some of our favorites for you down below as well. 

Today Capcom and the Monster Hunter Wilds team are hosting a dedicated showcase for the upcoming release to give hunters a closer look at what’s to come in the latest mainline title in the series. Wilds has been one of the more popular titles that has appeared in the major platform showcases throughout summer 2024 around here, right up through Gamescom, and the latest September State of Play where we caught our first glimpse of the early 2025 release date. 

Hyper unveiled one of the more capable 15W MagSafe stands earlier this year with a 4-in-1 setup and it is now finally available for purchase. One of the only models on the market from the major third-party brands to offer a proper 4-in-1 setup that includes a 15W Qi2 MagSafe pad for iPhone, an Apple Watch fast charger, a 5W Qi pad for AirPods, and a fourth wireless charging pad that can deliver up to 10W of juice to a second handset, the HyperJuice Next Qi2 4-in-1 Magnetic Charging Stand is now up for purchase with a couple other notable tricks up its sleeve. 

This afternoon’s collection of Android game and app deals is now ready and waiting down below courtesy of Google Play. The app deals also join the best price to date on Samsung’s flagship Galaxy Watch Ultra at $505 as well as up to $1,000 in savings on Hisense’s latest 85-inch 144Hz U8 mini-LED Google TV, the wide ranging Samsung Week sale, and one of the best deals to date on the new  unlocked Pixel 9. As for the apps, highlights include titles like Prune, Construction Simulator 4, Twinworld Survivor, What Lies Underground, and more. Head below for a closer look. 

Woot is giving folks looking to side-step the new iPhone 16 a chance to save on iPhone 15 today. You can now score an unlocked iPhone 15 starting from $599.99 Prime shipped (a $6 delivery fee will apply otherwise). Originally $799 and now selling for $699 directly from Apple, this is at least $99 under the price of buying one officially, $50 under our previous mention on these Woot units, and the lowest price we can find. These are not refurbished, but rather “pristine” open-box units that have “never been in customer hands” with “100% battery life.” More details below. 

While we did see the far more universally appealing Jet Black 42mm and 46mm models drop to some of the best prices ever today from $372, we are quickly touching down to highlight the first notable price drop and subsequent all-time low on Apple’s high-end gold bundle. Talking the dress watch game to whole new intelligent heights, Amazon is now offering the 42mm Gold Titanium Apple Watch Series 10 with the Gold Milanese Loop down at $719 shipped. This is a regularly $749 bundle that fetches a premium for a reason, and it’s now at the lowest price yet alongside a deal on this watch with a more affordable band below. 

Update: The new Xbox Wireless Headset is now up for pre-order at Best Buy and Amazon.

Just after the debuted of the official Call of Duty Black Ops 6 controllers ahead of the game’s release later this week, Microsoft has unveiled the next-generation Xbox Wireless Headset. It is said to come along with “key enhancements to elevate your audio experience to new heights” and is now available for purchase with a $109.99 MSRP directly from Xbox, over at Best Buy, and the Microsoft Store – we are still waiting on the Amazon listing as of right now. Head below for more details. 

Update 10/24: SANDMARC has informed us that due to an issue with Apple licensing it might not be able to actually release the new capture button model of its case. We have reached out for comment regarding refunds and the brand has told us it will offer customers who purchased the Camera Control model the option of a full refund or to opt for the cutout model.

SANDMARC has just debuted the very first leather iPhone 16 case with a proper sapphire crystal Camera Control. This is the very first leather iPhone 16 case we have seen to date with an actual Camera Control button, never mind the same tech Apple uses, and it happens to now be resting along the side of one of our very favorite leather cases in the game. Now available for purchase directly from the SANDMARC site for iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, you can use code 9TO5TOYS at checkout to receive our exclusive discount. Head below for more details. 

After getting a chance to go hands-on with the latest JBL Live Beam 3 recently, we are now diving into some hands-on impressions of the higher-end JBL Tour Pro 3. They certainly come at more of a premium, but we are also talking about one of the most feature-rich wireless earbuds experiences you can buy in the price range. Let’s jump to see if the $300 sticker tag is worth it. 

Apple’s new iPad mini 7 has arrived, we have detailed how to score a deal on your pre-order, and now it’s time to look at some cases and sleeves. While I personally tend to favor a sleeve to keep things protected until I’m ready slide it out and get my hands-on directly on the Apple hardware, some folks need some extra protection or something to prop it up at a good viewing angle and we are here to take a look at some of our favorites. From the brand new Apple magnetic Smart Folio color options to ultra-affordable solutions from $8.50 or so, right through to high-end full-grain leather to lug your mini in style, you’ll find the best iPad mini 7 cases and sleeves down below with more to come shortly. 

We have been covering the Peak Design Everyday canvas cases around here for at least a few years now, but this year it has introduced a whole new model made of a vegan Clarino Leather. How does it stand up against the bevy of vegan leather out there? Did the brand right its wrongs from last year’s Action Button mishap? The short answers are it’s very good and yes, it very much did. Scope out our hands-on impressions below.

SANDMARC is a major player around when it comes to Apple gear accessories, be it its wonderful leather iPhone 16 cases or its gorgeous metal Apple Watch Ultra bands, and its particularly nice iPhone lens attachments, but it also makes some great bags. This week the brand is debuting its new Sling Pack made specially for the new iPad mini 7, your iPhoneography gear, and the rest of your EDC. Best of all, we have an exclusive discount at the ready for you using code 9TO5TOYS at checkout as well. Scope out the details down below. 

As I have said in the past, I’m a big fan of the Elevation Lab AirTag accessories. In my experience, they are easily the best and put most of those cheapie plastic models to shame. That might suggest we are talking bout a bunch of overpriced premium solutions here, but, while they might be a touch more than the bargain bin options out there, they are very much not. We are talking about nearly indestructible AirTag mounts, many of which completely waterproof, in the $9 and $10 range when they are on sale like they are today. So be sure to head below and have at them while we are seeing up to 20% price drops across the lineup. 

As we previously reported, Xbox is set to go live today with a nearly 30-minute showcase of new games, trailers, and updates. While this is not one of its massive showcases, like the one we got over the summer, we have been promised a “no-fluff, all-games broadcast” today loaded with nothing but wall-to-wall games, by the sounds of it. Either way it all starts now and you can follow along with us below the fold. 

Journey is back at it again today with its latest new MagSafe charging station, and a nice pre-order deal to boot. The NOVA 3-in-1 Fast Wireless Charging Station is making its worldwide debut today to offer up the same old 3-in-1 charging action, but in a fresh new form-factor with a nice wood grain option. The official Made for Apple Watch nod of approval lands alongside the Qi2 15W action as well as a 20% launch deal you can secure ahead of its October 28 release date. Scope out the details down below. 

Atom Studios is a relatively new brand on our radar here at 9to5Toys, but after getting a chance to test out its recently-released lineup, we decided it more than deserved some limelight. While you will find some more traditional cases in its iPhone 16 collection, it is its iPhone 16 Agave Leather MagSafe Soft Snap case that really caught our eye. Head below for our exclusive discount code and our hands-on impressions. 

Just ahead of the worldwide debut of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 next week, the Xbox Wire has now unveiled a special edition collection of controllers and the COD Black ops 6 Xbox Series X console wrap. The collection includes a Xbox Wireless Controller as well as an Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 and the Xbox Series X Wrap, each designed to “capture the tension and intrigue of the ’90s spy thriller theme, with visual elements that immerse players deeper into the game’s world.” Get a closer look down below. 

Just after the debut of its next-generation Fire 8 tablet, Amazon has now unleashed the all-new family of Kindle devices. The new lineup includes the first full-color model, a “reimagined” Kindle Scribe, and the fastest Kindle Paperwhite ever. Amazon has tons of gear that is really just a different, more affordable version of tech products we see from other brands, but its Kindle lineup, at least for me, has managed to remain somewhat singular and unique as dedicated readers backed by the extensive lineup of titles Amazon offers for them. And everything is getting a 2024 refresh starting today, let’s dive in below. 

Today JLab is introducing what it calls the ‘lowest priced wireless ANC earbuds’ anywhere with its new GO POP ANC. The new ultra budget-friendly GO POP buds are now available for purchase at a shockingly low $29.99, complete with the workout-ready, noise cancelling design we will take a closer look at below. 

MUJJO, much like year’s past, was among the first leather case makers out of the gate when iPhone 16 was unveiled. I have been a fan of the brand’s leather treatments for at least a couple generations now, and with some new color options landing for iPhone 16, was excited to give them a test for 2024. While the initial run of these case had a Camera Control button that wasn’t up to the task, it has now re-issued with corrections, readied replacements for early adopters, and I am here to see if it all worked out.

Today Twelve South debuting a new special edition of its popular AirFly in-flight audio transmitter. These handy little gadgets are designed to provide an ultra-compact audio solution, effectively connecting to wired-only sources before beaming the audio wirelessly to your AirPods and other Bluetooth headphones. While we are getting the AirFly 2 or some higher-end pro-grade model today, the brand is reissuing its most affordable AirFly SE adapter today with a fresh coat of iridescent paint. Scope it out below. 

It’s been over a few months since Xbox graced us with its “future of gaming” summer showcase, and even longer than that since the last Xbox Partner Preview, but that all changes later this week. Over on the official Xbox Wire, an official announcement for the next Xbox showcase has surfaced some three days before the October Xbox Partner Preview will air around the world. In the latest installment of the ongoing Xbox Partner Preview series, we are set for a “no-fluff, all-games broadcast” come Thursday, October 17, and we will detail what to expect down below. 

Harber London, a brand well-known around here for creating gorgeous leather carriers and bags, unleashed its new All-Rounder MacBook Sleeve a couple months back, and now it’s time to weigh in after giving it a good test run. I have been and continue to be a huge fan of the brand’s bags – its Overnighter was just showcased in a recent 9to5Toys Travel Kit feature – but this time it is trading out some of the full-grain leather for a recycled fabric and we are ready to serve up our hands-on impressions.

The QD7 is marked down to $899.99 shipped over at Best Buy as well. 

Amazon dropped the new Motorola razr+ 2024 edition to the lowest we have tracked there for Prime Day just before jumping back to full price, but the Prime Big Deals Days offer is back. Over at Amazon you’ll find the 2024 unlocked Motorola razr+ back down at $799.99 shipped in all four colors on offer. Regularly $1,000, this is a straight up $200 cash discount to deliver the lowest price we can find and one on par with the deep deal we spotted last week. 

UGREEN’s MagFlow Qi2 3-in-1 Charger Station for iPhone 16, Apple Watch, and your AirPods has now surfaced on Amazon. After featuring the slightly more compact 2-in-1 model last month, the brand’s latest foldable charging solution now includes a third pop-out charging pad to juice up your Apple wearable as well. Now available for purchase with a $100 MSRP, UGREEN’s official Amazon listing is actually offering a notable launch deal today that knocks it down to $79.99 shipped at checkout. Head below for a closer look and more details. 

Today we are talking a hands-on look at the brand new Bose SoundLink Home Bluetooth Speaker. The combination home and on-the-go speaker immediately caught our eye at launch with the retro chic design, and now it’s time to see if its impressive looks and sound quality are worth the price of entry. Head below for our hands-on impressions of the Bose SoundLink Home Bluetooth Speaker in the latest edition of Tested with 9to5Toys.

For some folks it’s all about the latest and greatest, and for others it’s just about landing a sweet iPad without spending a fortune. There’s no denying how pricey the new M2 iPad Air can be, never mind the M4 iPad Pro, but that’s where the current-gen iPhone 10th Gen comes in – you can score one of these down at $299 shipped, which all things considered is wild for a tablet Apple still sells in its storefronts. However, if you’re just looking for a ultra-affordable, super casual solution, perhaps as a spare, something to take on road trips, or just for the kids, Amazon’s offer on the iPad 9th Gen at $199 shipped is worth consideration. 

This afternoon’s collection of the best Android games and apps now on sale at Google Play are waiting for you down below. On your way down, stop by the deals we are tracking on the Nest Audio Smart Speaker as well as new all-time low pricing on the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra wearable, the brand’s Galaxy Tab S9 FE, and this offer on Razer’s haptics-enabled Kishi V2 Pro Android gamepad. As for the apps, highlight titles include Crying Suns, Rush Rally 3, Little Big Workshop, and more. Head below for a closer look. 

We have featured a ton of interesting and traditional iPhone 16 cases this year already. Some have seriously impressed us, some with Camera Control buttons, and some with onboard physical gaming controls, but the Clicks case is the first one that adds a complete hardware keyboard to your new Apple headset. 

Just after featuring Spigen’s new affordable stainless steel bracelet-style band for Samsung’s Galaxy Watch Ultra at $37, a pair of its even more affordable models have now surfaced starting from $22. The Spigen Lite Fit Nylon Solo Loop has been a go-to among Apple Watch users for years and it is now ready to neatly attach to your 47mm Ultra at an ultra-affordable price tag.

Folks who haven’t scooped up a copy of the Kirby’s latest full-length adventure can grab one today at $39.99 with free shipping for Prime members (a $6 delivery fee will apply otherwise). This is a regularly $60 title that is currently out of stock at Amazon where it rarely goes on sale and almost never down at $40. This is a delightful 3D platforming adventure that delivers on much of the whimsical gameplay mechanics and visuals the Kirby series is known for, just inside of a brand new world with abandoned structures and “remnants of a past civilization.” The Copy action is back with the new Drill and Ranger abilities alongside Mouthful Mode – “inhale real-world objects and transform using Mouthful Mode—swallowing a vending machine will allow you to shoot out cans.” Head below for more.

Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days event is now ushering in all-time low pricing on the new black titanium Apple Watch Ultra 2. The black titanium Apple Watch Ultra 2 configuration has now dropped to $729.99 shipped with your choice of the Black Trail Loop or the new Dark Green Alpine Loop.

You’ll also find this deal available at Best Buy today. 

The Arc Pulse has been one of the most popular options this year among 9to5 readers, bumper style or otherwise. It would seem more and more folks are looking to leave the Apple design and their color of choice on display while still trying to maintain some semblance of drop protection at the same time, and the Arc Pulse very much does that. But let’s dive in with some hands-on impressions to see how everything shakes out in practice.
