Now live! Here’s a rare chance to score Arc’s LE Titanium Tungsten Onyx Black iPhone 16 Bumper Case [Update]

It's back! Arc bumper

Update: While we had a false start due to some technical difficulties, the next run of the limited edition Arc Titanium Tungsten Onyx Black iPhone 16 Bumper Cases are now live.

While you can still use our exclusive code to score a deal on the standard issue metal models (use code 9TO510 at checkout) in various colorways, Arc Pulse has informed us that it’s high-end special edition model for iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will finally be back in stock start at 5 a.m. ET/11 a.m. CET today (in 30 minutes from the time of writing) – this model sold out completely and very quickly at launch, so don’t sleep on this chance to score one if you’re interested as there’s no telling how long it will last and if it will come back in stock again down the line.

Hands-on Litter-bot

Back in August, my partner and I decided to invest in Whisker’s Litter-Robot 3, which I raved about in my subsequent review that you can check out here.
