The countdown to Black Friday is on, and the discounts are starting to appear. Although the shopping holiday isn’t officially until November 27th, retailers are already dropping early deals on some of our favorite tech.

Last week, Camp Snap launched a miniaturized version of its screen-free CS-8 video camera that was half the size of the original with a smaller grip designed to be easier for kids to hold. But it turns out the company wasn't done shrinking its hardware. Camp Snap's new CS-8 Micro is even smaller than the […]

The long-awaited launch of GTA VI is around the corner, happening next Friday, November 19th. While discounts on the game itself will be rare for some time, there’s a clever workaround to save you a few bucks on your digital copy. We found discounts on gift cards for both Sony PlayStation and Microsoft Xbox Series […]

The Nape Pro was Keychron's first trackball device that was introduced at CES 2026 with a slim and compact design allowing it to be positioned right up against a keyboard. The company's new T1 HE instead looks more like other trackball mice already available from companies like Logitech and Kensington with a 34mm ball positioned […]

Hi! I'm Jen Tuohy, The Verge's senior smart home reviewer. I've tested every smart display Amazon and Google have ever made, and for the past week I've been testing Apple's first: The $299 HomeView. I put the tabletop and wall-mounted versions through their paces, on my kitchen counter, bedside table, in my office, and on […]

Unfortunately, its privacy reputation led to the "pervert glasses" moniker. Smart glasses have never been more unpopular. But in the past week, I've been demoing some […]
