The OnePlus 9 series won’t be sold at Verizon

OnePlus’ new OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro feature improved screens, faster performance and better cameras, but the one thing they’ll lack — at least in the US — is the same retail carrier support. Unlike last year, when its OnePlus 8 5G was sold through T-Mobile and Verizon as well as being available unlocked, this …

Get Master & Dynamic’s award

When the Master & Dynamic MW07 true wireless earbuds debuted in 2018, they retailed for $300. The price has come down a lot since then; they currently officially list for $200, but you can routinely get them for $140 or so on Amazon.

Take your sound on the go with one of these $12 Bluetooth speakers

I’m subjected to a seemingly endless parade of inexpensive Bluetooth speakers. I see occasional deals for as little as $10, and while none of them are audiophile quality, they mostly all sound “good enough” for playing background music around the house, in the backyard or hanging out with a couple of vaccinated friends.

Mpow is clearing out a trio of sweet gaming headsets starting at just $10

When it comes to gaming, speakers are second best. To really immerse yourself in the game, you need to wrap the sound around your ears with headphones. An integrated mic for multiplayer gaming is also table stakes for a gaming headset, but if you can get extras like LED lighting, well, that’s gravy. Most gaming headsets tend to start around …

Last day to save up to 70% on video games, SSDs, laptops, TVs and more during Best Buy’s 3

It’s a new month, so presumably, it’s time for a new sale at Best Buy, a retailer that has more sales than a six-mast schooner (and yes, I am aware that pun doesn’t work because sail is spelled differently). This time around, Best Buy is having a three-day sale that started Friday night and runs through the end of today. …

Ice, ice, baby! Get this portable countertop ice maker for just $105

As Harrison Ford’s character tried to prove in the woefully underappreciated The Mosquito Coast, the one thing that defines modern civilization is our ability to create ice. And while many refrigerators have integrated ice makers, you might still be living with a model that requires you to fill freezer trays with water, like a caveman. If that sounds like you, …
