Introduction Sony is the second brand in as many months to try to blend a gaming headset and hi-fi headphones, but the InZone H9 II goes about it in a slightly different way. While it uses the same drivers as one of the firm’s best-loved noise cancelling over-ears, they’ve been tuned to the exacting standards of pro FPS players rather than musicians. That makes this a very different proposition to the WH1000-XM6, and Steelseries’ “audiophile-grade” Arctis Nova Elite. The design team also went back to the drawing board instead of iterating the original H9 headset, going big on comfort and…
The Blink Outdoor 4 is more than 50 percent off thanks to Prime Big Deal Days.

If you’re working with a shoestring budget, or at least 50 bucks, there are plenty of discounts to take advantage of between now and October 9th.

If you have small devices that are on the fritz — or in need of a slight modification — Hoto’s Electric Precision Screwdriver ADV is great for DIY projects. Its size and power make it well-suited for tinkering with phones, laptops, and handheld gaming consoles, with its pen-style grip, simple one-button operation, and a tidy magnetic case with 25 S2 steel bits. It’s not exactly ideal for putting together furniture, but it is handy for precision work, and it’s currently matching its all-time low of $29.99 ($20 off) at Amazon for Prime Big Deal Days.This year, I’ve made it my…

Hello and welcome to Regulator.I was recently riding a Lime scooter around downtown DC (don’t hate the player) and zipped across the intersection of 16th Street and I Street NW when I zoomed by the Motion Picture Association’s office building. Except now it had the logo of America 250 over the door. The last time I’d run into this nonprofit, it was at the 2025 Bitcoin Conference, where it was shaking down the crypto industry to pay for President Donald Trump’s controversial military parade.Apparently, in the subsequent months, America250 — which is, to reiterate, a nonprofit established by Congress to…
Day one of Prime Big Deal Days is here, and while there are plenty of big-ticket discounts, not everyone is looking to shell out a bunch of cash (myself included). The good news is you don’t have to spend a fortune to score something good during the two-day event, which ends Thursday, October 9th, at 3AM ET / 12AM PT. If you’re going on a trip this holiday season, you can save on an Apple AirTag (or, for more savings, get four of them), which can help you keep track of your luggage and other valuable personal belongings. For when…
Hodges worked at Apple for more than 22 years and spent more than a decade serving as a director of marketing and product management, bringing products like Xcode and Swift to market, according to his LinkedIn profile. “I used to believe that Apple were unequivocally ‘the good guys,’” Hodges writes. “I passionately advocated for people to understand Apple as being on the side of its users above all else. I now feel like I must question that.”Apple removed ICEBlock and other ICE-spotting apps last week in response to demands from the US Attorney General Pam Bondi, who claims “ICEBlock is…
Apple is preparing to announce it has acquired the exclusive rights to stream Formula 1 events in the United States, according to new reporting. The company is believed to have been in discussions with F1 about succeeding ESPN as the organisation’s chief broadcast partner for the start of the 2026 race season. Now Apple could reveal the agreement at the United States Grand Prix in Austin, Texas, during the weekend of 17-19 October. Puck’s John Ourand’s new reporting (via 9to5Mac) states ongoing negotiations are almost complete with Apple potentially paying up to $150 million (around £112m) per year for US…
Let’s face it, hair removal is awful. Shaving doesn’t last long enough, epilating is too painful, and professional laser treatment is expensive. After trying countless hair removal methods in my time as a gadget reviewer, I’ve found IPL to be the most effective and convenient solution by far. If you’ve been considering getting one, the Braun IPL Silk-Expert Pro 5 is currently discounted by 51% for Amazon Prime Day, bringing the price down to £298. It’s ever so slightly cheaper than the discount we saw during the main Prime Day sale earlier this year. Unfortunately, US shoppers miss out on…
All of the deals we’ve recommended from Prime Big Deal Days are for products our team has tested and can personally vouch for, whether it be a streaming device, a laptop, or a pair of noise-canceling earbuds. However, there are also plenty of other gadgets that the Verge staff genuinely loves that don’t receive a dedicated review or a slot in one of our buying guides. These are the things we use on a daily basis, give as gifts, and often can’t stop talking about, some of which we regularly chronicle in our “favorites” series.Below, we’ve highlighted some of those…
