I’m irrationally excited about this deal. See, I first spotted the i-Star Qi Wireless Charging Smart Table earlier this year, when I wrote about 7 unexpectedly cool things with built-in wireless charging pads. Back then, it was $220, though an on-page coupon brought the price to just below $200. Still a bit on the high …

For the better part of 2019, the iPad 9.7 (not to be confused with the iPad Air and iPad Mini) was on something of a pricing rollercoaster. Apple continued to charge $329 for the 32GB model, but vendors such as Amazon, MassGenie and Walmart frequently sold it for $249. Then came the new iPad 10.2, which sort of reset the pricing …

There are plenty of iPhone 11 deals to be had right now, most of them involving a trade-in, rebate or discount in the form of bill credit.

Preorders for the new iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max kicked off last week, with general availability due on Sept. 20. The starting price for Apple’s new flagship? A surprisingly low $699, which have led some to suggest that price is the iPhone 11’s best feature. Of course, the key there is “starting”; if you’re looking for more …

Problem: You get on a flight, only to realize you packed wireless earbuds — meaning you can’t use the in-flight entertainment system. Similar problem: Lots of health clubs have cardio machines with headphone jacks, but you want to use your wireless ‘buds. Related problem: The Nintendo Switch doesn’t support Bluetooth headphones.
