You probably haven’t heard, but Disney Plus launched Tuesday. (Never mind that things didn’t exactly go smoothly. It’ll get there.) The much-ballyhooed new streaming service costs $6.99 a month, or $70 if you prepay for a year. Already feeling subscription fatigue? You may have heard that Verizon is offering a free year of Disney Plus with …

Headphone deals are heating up. The other day, the Sony WH-1000XM3 dipped to an all-time-low $228 (but has since returned to $278, still a decent discount), and there’s a Bose 700 deal coming tomorrow. The deal to beat right now, however, is this: For a limited time, and while supplies last, the Beats Studio3 Wireless noise-canceling headphones (in gray) are …

True story: A couple years back, some friends of ours couldn’t locate their daughter. She went missing for something like eight hours — eight of the most terrifying hours imaginable. Thankfully, she turned up safe and sound, but the next day they immediately started shopping for some kind of GPS locator. Technology absolutely should be able to prevent such situations, …

Hand it to Apple: The new AirPods Pro noise-canceling earbuds have won almost universal acclaim, despite the jaw-dropping $250 price tag. Surely there are cheaper options? Yep: I recently rounded up some affordable AirPods Pro alternatives, a list that includes the popular Sony WF-1000XM3. Alas, at $228, you’re not saving much.

The Optoma HD143X is the 2018 successor to the Optoma HD142X, which David Katzmaier praised for offering “a huge, hella impressive picture for a small price.” That price, incidentally, was a then-impressive $550. (Here’s the full Optoma HD142X review for your reference.) The newer model, meanwhile, has mostly lingered around $450 — until today. For a limited time, and while …

The new Google Pixel 4 XL may not be perfect, but I’ll wager you wouldn’t mind walking away with one for free? You’ve got the chance to do just that today, thanks to CNET’s all-new giveaway. One lucky person will receive the unlocked Pixel 4 XL (128GB) and Google’s Pixel USB-C earbuds (which is nice because earbuds aren’t normally included …

True story: My son received a Boom Brick 2.0 for his birthday, prompting a discreet eye-roll from yours truly. Another Bluetooth speaker? Throw it on the pile. Except, hang on, the box says it requires no Bluetooth. No wires. No connection of any kind. Snort. Yeah, right. So it’s a magic speaker? You just lay your phone in the cradle …

I’ve long sung the praises of cash-back services, which can help you save extra on many, if not most, online purchases. This works even if you’re already using a cash-back credit card (which you should be). It’s like double-dipping, which is just as awesome here as it is at the ice-cream shop. There are many cash-back services — one of …

Are you a PlayStation Vue subscriber? Sorry to break it to you: Not anymore, you’re not. After trying (and failing) to find a buyer for the streaming-TV service, Sony abruptly announced plans to shutter Vue at the end of January 2020.
