UGREEN’s new lineup of Nexode Air chargers has managed to stand out in the market with its compact design – and how! We took a look at the brand’s 65W Nexode Air ultra-mini USB-C GaN charger a few weeks back, and we’re now checking out the ultra-slim 45W Nexode Air model. This is easily the slimmest charger I have in my EDC right now, and it’s compact enough to slip into just about any of my pockets or bags. While it doesn’t quite match the 65W charging speeds of the other variant I tested earlier, I’ve found myself reaching for this slimmer one more often over the past few weeks simply because it’s so easy to carry around. Head below for a closer look and more details.

It’s becoming increasingly difficult to remain excited about SSDs these days, thanks to rising prices driven by industry-wide hikes and ongoing memory shortages. That’s exactly why I believe drives like the ORICO iFolder Go feel like a breath of fresh air in a market that doesn’t offer much to get excited about lately. This SSD, as you can probably tell, sports a very unconventional design that looks nothing like the external drives we’re used to seeing. It’s easily among the most unique SSDs in my stash. But is there more to it than just good looks? Does it actually deliver the performance to back up its unique design? Head below to find out.

I’ve been a fan of Navee’s electric scooters since I first went hands-on with the feature-packed ST3 Pro Electric Scooter last summer. I came away from the experience highly impressed, and even declared that, as a long-time Segway rider, the popular brand has a challenger with that series. This year, Navee has really stepped up its game and challenged Segway’s newest SuperScooter with its own supercar-inspired UT5 Ultra X Electric SuperScooter that sports monstrous dual-motor power, insane speeds, a 75-mile travel range, all the smart features you could want, and more. It’s truly a thrill-seeker’s delight, and looks as premium with its golden colorway, not to mention while carrying NBA legend Kevin Garnett’s signature/seal of approval. Head below to learn all about what it brings to rides and to get my hands-on impression of the most high-end e-scooter I have ever hopped on.

UGREEN has unleashed a tiny new 65W GaN charger called the Nexode Air, featuring a USB-C port. While this model skips some of the flashier extras like a built-in display as seen on Anker’s latest Nano 45W charger, it keeps things simple and checks the right boxes, in my opinion, with an ultra-compact design, which is smaller than the size of an AirPods case and a wallet-friendly price tag. The brand’s official storefront is also offering a launch deal for it right now down at $29.99. Head below for a closer look and more details on this impressively small charger.

In a world where most keyboards have started looking increasingly similar, all following more or less the same design language, it always catches my attention when something with a more aggressive gaming aesthetic – sharp angles, bold cuts, and a bit more personality – shows up every now and then. The IQUNIX EV63 Hall effect keyboard we’re checking out today is one of those, currently sitting on my desk. Not only does it look good but it also checks a lot of the right boxes when it comes to gaming. I’ve spent enough time using it to get a solid feel for what it brings to the table, so head below for a closer look and to learn more about my experience with it.

Robot pool cleaners are becoming more and more common in pools across America, providing autonomous support for their upkeep while giving back time to owners to enjoy the water – plus, they keep that water swim-ready with regular scheduling. What’s more, swimming season is upon us, with many folks starting the process of opening them now that we’re getting more and more consistent warm weather. Some of the most advanced of these pool cleaning robots on the market come from Beatbot, with premium models like the AquaSense Ultra starting up in the $3,000 range, though the brand recently released its Sora 70 Robotic Pool Cleaner to provide more accessible pricing with top-tier features. Of course, I picked one up to help my parents maintain their pool, both of them now in their elderly years, while also dealing with some physical disabilities. Head below to get a full rundown on mine and their experiences in this hands-on review.

As the years go on, robots are getting more and more advanced and picking up various tasks across home cleaning, pet care, and lawn mowing, though it is fair to say that there is still room for plenty of growth. While we haven’t quite reached the pinnacle as represented in sci-fi media, we’re certainly getting there rather fast, and Segway’s Navimow X4 series robot lawn mowers are taking the lead as the current leader in the robot mowing race. With my parents in their retirement ages (despite not being able to retire yet), and my mother dealing with spinal disabilities over the last few years, in particular, what better time to test out a premium means to keep both medical accidents from occurring and the HOA off their backs?

In 2024, I began my journey into the world of self-cleaning litter boxes after spending the previous year doing heavy research into the seemingly endless array of brands/models that have flooded the market. At the end of this period, it was Whisker that came out on top, with my partner and me pulling the trigger on buying the Litter-Robot 3 Connect, which happened to be the brand’s first model to include app-based controls. I have since upgraded to the Litter-Robot 4 with the Litter-Hopper attachment, and now, in 2026, I’ve made another upgrade to the newest Litter-Robot 5 Pro (which came out alongside the EVO and standard 5 variations). Head below to get a full in-depth rundown on what you can expect with Whisker’s latest generation of the safest and most popular self-cleaning litter boxes on the market.

There’s no shortage of affordable, budget-friendly gaming keyboards on the market, but only a handful come packed with features that truly come through for gaming. You’re likely to end up with a standard mechanical keyboard when shopping for models under $100, but the EPOMAKER G84 HE we’re looking at today checks all the basics while also bringing some noteworthy extras to the table at this price point. I kept my expectations in check when I started using it as my daily driver for gaming – especially since I was coming from some more premium boards in my collection – but I have to admit it’s proven to be a reliable performer that has consistently earned a spot on my desk alongside the LOFREE Flow 2 wireless model I usually rely on for work. You can read more about my experience using it as my everyday gaming keyboard below.

While there are plenty of newer Qi2.2 25W chargers on the market now, the standard Qi2 15W models are still very relevant and widely used. This is particularly true in the case of portable power banks, as many prioritize convenience factors like compact size and portability over the absolute fastest charging speeds. That’s where the Baseus Picogo power bank we’re checking out today stands out. It’s one of the more popular options available, and honestly, the smallest one I carry in my EDC these days. The compact form factor alone often makes me reach for it over other options I own. That said, there’s more to this model than just its size, and you can read more about my experience using it below.

ORICO makes some pretty neat compact smartphone gear, including docks, SSDs, and enclosures, and the K20 Mini we’re looking at today is one of its newer drives on its catalog. It’s a portable magnetic SSD that snaps onto the back of a MagSafe-compatible iPhone and connects via a short USB-C cable to add quick extra storage. I’ve actually replaced the Crucial X9 I used with my iPhone and MacBook with this drive, and you can learn more about the experience of using this drive below.

As someone who has reviewed and used plenty of mechanical keyboards, I’d started to feel like I’d seen it all in this space. Most boards today only really differ in layout or materials, while the overall design feels pretty repetitive. But the LOFREE Flow 2 we’re checking out today actually stands out. On paper, it sticks to a familiar 68-key layout, but the design is quite different, and it brings a few thoughtful additions that make it genuinely interesting. I’ve been using the Flow 2 wireless low-profile keyboard as my main board for the past few months, and it’s one I keep coming back to, even with several other keyboards sitting on my desk.

Sony is officially launching its next-generation WF-1000XM6 wireless earbuds today. Much like its latest XM6 over-ears, Sony has made improvements across the board here with a next-gen noise canceling processor, its best call quality in a set of earbuds, improved Bluetooth connectivity “in any environment,” access to Google Gemini (and Siri), and an updated bud and case design. They are available for purchase starting now (or will be momentarily).

As you might have seen in our launch coverage, Anker has now unleashed its new Prime Wireless Charging Station. This time featuring the 25W Qi2 MagSafe action in a 3-in-1 setup for your entire Apple kit, it can fold down into a palm-sized unit that might be my new go-to travel charger. Scope out some hands-on impressions below.

Today’s smart glasses generally fall into two camps: ones that put a big, wearable display in front of your eyes purely for entertainment, gaming, and media like Viture’s Lumar Ultra, and there are others like the RayNeo X3 Pro we’re checking out today – that aim to deliver practical, everyday AR experiences. I’m already a heavy user of the first kind for daily entertainment, but I’ve yet to see anything truly compelling in the “real” AR space for day-to-day use. I’ve been using the RayNeo X3 Pro as my primary pair of glasses for the past few weeks, and they offer a glimpse into where AR is in 2026 – full of potential, but still weighed down by deal-breaking compromises. Head below for a closer look and my full experience.

In October, I got to experience the first-hand upgrades that came through Anker’s second-generation series kick-off with the C1000 Gen 2 Power Station. It’s still been serving me well in the time since, but there have been some last-minute emergency needs that wouldn’t have lasted as long without the latest C2000 Gen 2 Portable Power Station that I got my hands on. It comes as a bolstered version of its predecessor, shrunk down from legacy models’ sizes, same as the C1000 Gen 2 station, but with some added benefits not seen on the C1000 Gen 2. Read on below for my hands-on impressions of this all-new solar generator.

Anker unleashed its new Nano Charger with 45W max power, an onboard Smart Display, and 180-degree foldable plug at CES 2026 this year. It has been among the more popular releases around here thus far, and today is your last shot to land one with the launch deal down at $29.99. Head below for some of my hands-on thoughts. 

I love me some Find My, and perhaps the most useful implementation of it in my life has come by way of those wonderful wallet tracker cards. Nomad’s Tracking Card (now known as the Tracking Card Air) has been a staple in my everyday carry for years and something I never leave the house without. However, the brand debuted a new Pro model this year with a metal build and much longer battery life and I have now had a chance to put this thing to the test, so let’s take a look to see if it is worth the higher price tag?

Buying budget wireless headphones usually meant living with obvious trade-offs – at least until a few years ago. Even today, plenty of premium models still have their own shortcomings. That being said, there’s no shortage of affordable options out there that are slowly catching up and punch well above their weight class to challenge headphones that cost $300 or more. The Baseus Inspire XH1 I’ve been using over the past few weeks is a great example, delivering effective ANC, surprisingly good sound quality, and excellent battery life. They’ve easily become my favorite budget headphones of the year – and you can read on to find out why.

UGREEN’s 15W Qi2 3-in-1 MagFlow charger quickly became one of my favorites when I went hands-on with it earlier this year. The new model we’re checking out today builds on it with faster 25W Qi2.2 charging and a more compact design that fits better on smaller desks and packs easily for travel. I’ve been using UGREEN’s latest 3-in-1 Qi2.2 25W charging station for a few weeks now, and it has honestly been an excellent upgrade – especially since my desk has gotten more crowded with some new gear. Hit the jump to learn more about this charger in detail.

I hopped on my first Segway back in 2020, when I picked up the Ninebot E22 Electric Scooter that has carried me across Brooklyn and exceeded all expectations of what a basic low-end model could do for as long as it has. Never once have I had problems with it (aside from its limited travel range of up to 14 miles not able to go further distances) – even with how rough I tend to ride it. It’s this and several other reasons that I was eager to get ahold of Segway’s newest Ninebot E3 Pro Electric Scooter. Not only is it a great step up from the basic performance of my previous model, it comes in at a relatively low price for what you’re getting. Head below to get my hands-on impressions of this new generation model that is a great casual means for commuters and general joyriders alike.

Moza’s latest wheel bases top their line-up with the new R25 Ultra and the R21 Ultra, which we have mounted up for testing on the GT Omega Titan cockpit. With up to 21nm of sustained torque and new zero-cogging flat-wire technology, this $700 wheel base marks a new phase in smoothness from one of the more affordable high-power sim racing brands on the market. So, what’s the experience like, and is it worth the price tag? Be sure to hit the video below to find out. 

It’s true that most modern cars come equipped with a couple of USB ports or even wireless charging pads, but nothing quite matches the convenience of a dedicated charger that plugs into the auxiliary port for fast, reliable power delivery. While Amazon is packed with car chargers of every kind, the Baseus PrimeTrip VR2 Max model, we’re checking out today, stands out from the crowd. This unit not only features multiple ports and connectors to charge up to four devices at once, but it also swivels and rotates for flexible positioning. That means you can easily adjust it to your seating setup for added convenience. I recently took it along on a road trip, and it’s quickly become my go-to car charger. Here’s a closer look at why I believe it’s such a dependable and well-designed pick.

If you had asked me my opinion of RIG gaming headsets a month ago, I would wouldn’t have laughed at you, not to your face at least, but I might have given a little chuckle and said that they’re not worth the time or money… but then I started seeing this headset all over the gaming audio YouTube space – the RIG R5 Spear Pro HS.

Dust off your kitty ears and turn your Razer Chroma up to 11, because the new Razer Kiyo V2 is here and is ready to capture video in 4 K at 30fps with AI controls. But the market has gotten busier since Razer’s last entrant into the webcam space. Insta360 has been innovating with the Link 2 and Link 2C, which raises my biggest question for the Kiyo V2: “Is it enough?” We’ll run through all the features and find out. 

Hey champ! Are you ready to throw the 16 ounces on and see what you’ve got in the ring? I did, offering you a complete review of the latest iteration of FightCamp, a home workout system that combines boxing exercise with advanced technology. It’s not just high-tech, though – it’s a fantastic way to get an incredible workout in on your own time, with trusted trainers, in the comfort of your own home. Check out my full review of FightCamp below. Ding ding ding!

Belkin is one of the first brands out of the gate with new 25W MagSafe charging stands and today we are taking a hands-on look at the flagship UltraCharge Pro model. Delivering certified Qi2.2 25W charging with optional ChillBoost active cooling, let’s dive in to see if the faster charging and built-in fan are worth upgrading from the 15W model you already have.

Update: Microsoft’s new Xbox ROG Ally and ROG Ally X PC gaming handhelds are now available to purchase. Best Buy currently has them in stock and shipping with prices starting at $599.99 shipped for the standard Xbox ROG Ally. More details in the original post below.

A little over a month after Xbox confirmed the release date of its upcoming gaming handhelds, the ROG Ally and ROG Ally X are now available for pre-order. That also puts an end to all the speculation around pricing. The ROG Ally is priced at $599.99 shipped, while the more powerful ROG Ally X comes in at $999.99 shipped. The standard ROG Ally, which comes in white, can be pre-ordered from Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart. The beefier ROG Ally X, available in black, can be grabbed from Best Buy and Microsoft’s official store. Both of these models start shipping on October 16. Head below for more details.

UGREEN was among the first to roll out its Qi2.2 25W chargers, joining brands like Anker and ESR in bringing the new standard to market. We’ve already tested its Qi2 25W 2-in-1 MagSafe charger and its 10,000mAh MagSafe power bank, and now, we’re taking a closer look at the MagFlow 3-in-1 Qi2.2 25W MagSafe wireless charging station. This has now become my go-to bedside charging station to power my iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods. I’ve been using it on my nightstand for the past couple of weeks, and here’s a detailed look at how it’s held up.

Moment’s new Supercage packs a lot more than meets the eye. At its core, it clamps onto a mobile device to add stability and allow for easy mounting of accessories. Upon closer inspection, there’s a lot more going on with sleek design choices and integrated electronics. Be sure to hit the video below to find out more.

I love Apple’s Alpine Loop, and always have. It is my go-to sporty-style strap, but every time I want a new color I need to be willing to drop $99 for one, and I don’t particularly love that. Let’s a take a closer look at Spigen’s new knock-off Alpine Loop you can land for a fraction of the price. 

Update 10/12: Today is your last chance to get in on the massive Walmart Deals fall sale (October 12).

The massive Walmart Prime Day competitor sale is now live! As you’ll know from our announcement coverage, Walmart is hosting a giant fall sale right alongside the Amazon Prime Big Deal Days event this year, and it is now live in early access for Walmart+ members – all of the deals will go live for everyone at midnight ET later tonight. 

I’ve been enamored with electric scooters for a while now, as their easy form factor and intuitive design are just perfect for “last-mile” commuting as well as just general getting around. But a common and understandable fear is safety. With the Navee N65i, though, thoughtful design makes it feel safe both on road, and off.

We are now officially well into the final 24 hours of the 2025 Amazon Prime Big Deal days sale. While much of the best deals we featured yesterday will remain, some of them are gone for good only to be replaced by new fresh offers, and, in some cases, even lower prices. Our master Prime Big Deal Days hub for day 2 of Amazon’s giant sale event awaits below, providing quick links to the best deals from across the sale. 

The official Amazon Prime Big Deal Days sale is now in full swing with millions of discounts across every product category. We are looking at new all-time lows on official Apple gear, the first major price drops on the Google Pixel 10 releases, and hundreds in savings on Samsung gear. All of that joins a host of discounts on EVs and power stations as well as deep discounts on headphones, wireless earbuds, PC battlestation gear, and much more. You’ll find everything waiting below and be sure to check back soon as we constantly update this hub with more deals.

One of the most exciting releases in the mouse game, in about as long as I can remember, has arrived with the all-new Logitech MX Master 4. Previous iterations have been, and still are, very popular among readers and staffers. I have colleagues that have been urging me and my poor mouse hand to switch over from the infamous Magic Mouse for more than a couple years now – will the MX Master 4 finally be the turning point for me? Is the MX Master 4 better than Magic Mouse? Let’s dive in. 

Anker is hands-down one of the most well-known tech accessory brands with an extensive lineup of consumer electronics, and its SOLIX sub-brand has been solidifying itself in the portable backup power solution space for some time now. Its C1000 power station made big waves when it first hit the market in 2023, quickly becoming a popular charging solution for camping and other outdoor activities, in particular. Now, two years later, the Anker has introduced its SOLIX C1000 Gen 2 Portable Power Station, which I was lucky enough to snag and test out, and which I believe will outshine its predecessor in the long run. Head below to get my hands-on impressions of this all-new solar generator.

When it comes to e-bikes, most people’s immediate thought is a commuter model designed to get you through streets to your various destinations, but with Ride1Up’s Revv1 DRT e-bike, the fun is extended (and primarily focused) to off-road adventures, and boy, does this baby have some go in it. It’s been over two years since we reviewed the Revv1 FS counterpart, which we came away quite impressed with its SUPER73-like design. Now we’re heading off the beaten path with this newer off-road variant, which boasts improved specs that outshine its predecessors in the series. You can learn more about the Revv1 DRT e-bike’s capabilities and my hands-on impressions below.

Logitech has now officially revealed the new MX Master 4 mouse. The long-awaited, and oft leaked new flagship mouse from the brand is surfacing in an official capacity today. The new Logitech MX Master 4 is now available for purchase at $119.99 shipped. Scope out the details and some hands-on impressions down below. 

There’s no shortage of MagSafe power banks out there these days, but this UGREEN 10,000mAh MagFlow model stands out for a big reason – it’s the world’s first Qi2.2-certified 25W portable charger. Even now – a couple of months after its debut – there aren’t many 25W Qi2 power banks readily available on the market, which makes this unit all the more remarkable. I’ve been carrying it as part of my EDC for a couple of weeks, and it’s quickly become my everyday go-to. Here’s everything you need to know about it in case you’re planning to pick one of these up.

Right on cue, the new MUJJO leather iPhone 17 case lineup landed immediately after the new phone’s hit the virtual stage at this year’s “Awe dropping” event in Cupertino. They have been some of the best leather cases for the price for than a couple years, and now it’s time to see how its Full Leather fits on the new iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max. 

Alongside its new leather BookBook case, Twelve South debuted an all-new collection of silicone iPhone 17/Pro and Pro Max cases with matching Apple Watch bands to match. We have now had a chance to test them out in an attempt to answer the glaring question here – why would anyone pay $50 for a Twelve South silicone case when they can get one that looks similar on Amazon for $16? Let’s dive in.

Burton Goods and its beautiful handmade leather cases are back for iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, but today we are taking a closer hands-on look at its brand new iPhone Air case – the Heritage Leather. If you like leather goods, real proper artisanship, and a case the ages beautifully, Burton Goods should be on your radar – but can it keep up with Apple’s awe dropping new ultra-thin iPhone?

I have used a few dash cams before, but Viofo’s latest flagship really caught my eye because it goes a step beyond the usual font-and-rear setup. The A329T steps things up by adding a second forward-facing camera with a telephoto lens designed to zoom in and capture details farther down the road. I don’t consider myself a hardcore “dash cam enthusiast” but I do care about reliable video protection and clear footage. So I was very curious to see how Viofo’s newest camera setup really performs.

Nomad is back, as expected, with a slate of new sporty and leather cases for iPhone 17, 17 Pro, and 17 Pro Max, as well as some Air models (more on those to come). I absolutely adored last year’s Nomad Traditional Leather Case for my iPhone 16 Pro – it is the most elegant model in the lineup if you ask me, and now it’s time to see how the new design works with Apple’s Cosmic Orange.

Arc’s Pulse bumper case for iPhone 17, 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max and the new iPhone Air are now available for purchase and we have had a chance to test one out for ourselves. These minimalist 2-piece metal bumpers were a popular option among readers last year and it’s time to make sure Arc’s treatment of the new iPhone 17 (Pro in this case) design is just as impressive as it was in year’s past. 

It’s iPhone 17 launch weekend and the Apple deals are flying. Not only are we tracking the first price drop on the brand new AirPods Pro 3 at Amazon, but it is also offering some launch deals on the entire collection of official Apple iPhone 17/Pro/Max and iPhone Air cases. All of that joins deals on the new 25W Qi2 MagSafe Charger, the entire M4 MacBook Air lineup at $200 off, all M3 iPad Air models at $150 off, as well as deals on M4 MacBook Pro, Mac mini from $499, iPad mini 7 from $399, and much more. Everything is organized for you down below.
