It’s now time to take a hands-on look at Harber London’s luxurious City Leather MacBook Backpack. The brand delivers higher-end leather goods for just about any Apple product, and its carriers have been a real highlight for me after getting a chance to give them a go. The City Backpack on display here, though, is easily one of my favorite designs in its lineup of back-mounted bags ready for lugging around MacBooks and iPads in style, but is it worth the hefty price tag? While it is just what you expect from a bag handmade in Spain and constructed of premium leather, let’s dig in and find out for sure in the latest entry to our long-running Tested with 9to5Toys series.

This is our hands-on review of the new Sennheiser Profile USB Mic Streaming Set. After launching in late March, we have now had enough time to really put the setup through its paces to deliver a verdict.

The spoiler version here is that it’s good…really good. Head below for the details.

Twelve South today is kicking off the new month by launching its latest sale on a collection of its popular Apple accessories. Shipping is free across the board in orders over $50. Our top pick is the new Twelve South Curve Flex MacBook Stand at $74.99. Marking only the second notable discount to date, this is down from the usual $80 going rate in order to mark the second-best price to date. It was only on sale once before during a sale back in September, as well. Twelve South just refreshed its popular MacBook stand last month with the new Curve Flex. This all-aluminum offering arrives with an adjustable design that lets you elevate your machine in plenty of different ways. I walked away quite impressed in my hands-on review, which you can read for a more in-depth look at the features. Then head below for some other highlights from the Twelve South sale.

Reg. $300/$250Amazon is now offering the Satechi Thunderbolt 4 Dock for $249.99 shipped. Normally fetching $300, today’s offer amounts to quite the rare $50 in savings. This is the first discount we’ve seen in months since a markdown back over the summer for the back to school season at $10 less. Though this is still the second-best discount we’ve seen to date on the accessory, which has been largely out of stock since releasing earlier in the year. Featuring Thunderbolt 4 tech, this dock can turn a single port on your MacBook into a wide range of I/O. All packed into a metal enclosure are three Thunderbolt 4 ports, three USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 slots, Gigabit Ethernet, an SD card reader, and more. Not to mention 96W of power passthrough to your machine for a single cable setup.
