Samsung’s 65-inch Frame Pro TV is around $1,797.99 ($402 off) — a new all-time low — at Amazon and Best Buy during Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days. The 75-inch model is around $2,197.99 ($1,400 off) at Amazon and Best Buy, which is also its cheapest price.When you’re not watching it, the TV enters an “Art Mode” and cycles through a gallery of famous paintings, which appear a little more like actual artwork on its matte display than they would on an LED or OLED.Art Mode is the Frame Pro’s main attraction, but it requires a subscription ($50 per year) to…
Google is planning to launch a Gemini-based smart display to succeed its existing Nest Hub range, judging by recent comments from a key smart home executive at the company. A week ago, Google upgraded the Google Home speaker to bring it up to speed with Gemini Live and its other generative AI tools. However, the company’s smart display line wasn’t shown the same love. Thankfully, it looks like we can add the word “yet” to that last sentence. In an interview with The Verge, the fella with the knowledge reaffirmed the company’s commitment to smart displays and promised an announcement…
Regular readers of The Verge will know that my favorite room in my smart home is my kitchen. As an avid home cook and mom of two, this is the room where I spend the most time, and where I look for as much convenience and extra help as I can get. As a result, I’m always testing new connected gadgets in a quest to find the best ones — those that offer the most value and save me the most time.But the problem with kitchen gadgets is that they are so expensive. This makes Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days…
Samsung will reportedly debut a handy automatic call screening feature when it announces the Galaxy S26 smartphone early next year, helping it rival some of the best smartphones from Apple and Google. The new feature, which would enable users to utilise a helpful assistant to determine where they want to answer that call from an unknown number, could arrive with One UI 8.5 – the next planned major update. One UI is Samsung’s home grown interface that sits on top of Android and that’s significant given Google Pixel phones that run on pure Android have been offering Call Screen feature…
While it lacks the haptics of the newer MX Master 4, Logitech’s MX Master 3S is nearly as good in several ways. It has quiet clicks, horizontal and vertical scroll wheels that are fun to spin, and a comfortable grip. And, for a limited time, it’s down to just $89.98 at Amazon as part of the company’s October Prime Day sale, which runs through October 8th. That’s just a few dollars shy of its best-ever price, which we last saw last year.The wireless MX Master 3S for Mac is essentially the same as the other models, but with a few…
It’s one thing to know that the folding phone you’re using is fully dust resistant. It’s an entirely different thing to watch an $1,800 phone with delicate mechanical parts sink half an inch into the sand with the screen wide open.There’s more to that story, but the short version is that the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold was fine. That’s probably thanks to its IP68 rating, marking full dust and water resistance, which is a first for a folding phone. Up to now, it’s been hard to recommend spending nearly $2,000 for a less durable phone when basically every non-folding…

The company, more commonly associated with desktop and bookshelf speakers, has announced its first ever record player in hopes of joining the ranks of the best turntables.

There are great deals below on gaming products, 4K TVs, laptops, even compact electric tire pumps, and more.Whether you’re trying to shop less at Amazon or you just want to…
Five years ago, I used to groan when it came time to review an Android smartwatch. Back then, anything that wasn’t a Samsung watch was disappointing at best. The space was fragmented, battery life was dismal, and interest just didn’t seem to be there. But now, the $349.99 Google Pixel Watch 4 is the most interesting flagship smartwatch launch of the season.That wasn’t on my 2025 bingo card.The Pixel Watch 4 may look exactly like the Pixel Watch 3, but it’s a fundamentally different watch. Hardware-wise, the fourth-gen watch is now repairable, features a domed display, and has upgraded specs,…
Verizon is acquiring Starry, the ISP that delivers home internet using antennas and millimeter wave technology. The acquisition “advances” Verizon’s ability to offer high-speed internet in apartments, condominiums, and other multi-dwelling units, the company said on Wednesday.Starry made its debut in Boston in 2016, offering gigabit speeds via its unconventional approach to internet connectivity. Instead of carrying connectivity across a web of wires — which are expensive and time-consuming to deploy — Starry beams its internet service from a larger antenna into homes via high-speed, short-range mmWave broadcasts. The challenge with those broadcasts is that Starry connections generally require an…
The current state of headphones is a bummer. In one sense, the market has never been so good: from Bose to Sony to Apple to Google to Samsung to Sennheiser to JBL to unpronounceable Chinese knockoffs, you can’t spin around in a Best Buy without finding a pair of solid-sounding earbuds. Across prices and styles, we’re spoiled for choice.But as headphones have improved, they’ve also gotten more stratified. If you want the pair with the most features and the best integration with your device, you pretty much have to buy the ones made by the company that also makes your…
Got a bunch of devices? Who am I kidding – of course you do. Like most of us here at Stuff, you’ve probably got the latest smartphone, a smartwatch, and a pair of earbuds to go with. I’ve got a whole Apple ecosystem on my night stand. But what happens when it comes to charging all these devices? This Anker charger is a life-saver. It’s a Qi 2 3-in-1 charger, so can juice up your phone, watch, and buds. It works with any MagSafe-enabled Apple devices. Sorry, Android users. And it’s a sweeter deal than ever in Amazon’s Prime Big…
