The original Joy-Con is also compatible with the Switch 2, but the newer Joy-Con 2 features several upgrades that are worth saving up for. The biggest difference is that the Joy-Con 2 is physically larger, with bigger buttons and a matte texture for a better grip and improved ergonomics. It also magnetically attaches to the Switch 2 console for a more secure hold. Functionally, the new Joy-Con is updated with "HD Rumble 2" for better tactile feedback, an optical sensor so that you can use the controller like a mouse, and a C button to access the GameChat feature.

If you're looking to add more controllers for local multiplayer action, or if you simply want a backup pair of Joy-Cons, then you should consider this deal. Recently the retail price of the Joy-Con 2 went up from $95 to $100 as a result of tariffs.

The Joyroom adapter plugs into your standard cigarette lighter or 12V DC auxiliary power outlet. It connects to your smartphone via Bluetooth 5.4 and converts the audio into an unused FM radio frequency, which then transmits into your car's FM radio system. You can use it to stream music or to take phone calls.

In addition to its audio streaming capabilities, the Joyroom adapter also gives you extra ports: one USB Type-C port with up to 45W of Power Delivery and two USB Type-A ports with up to 36W of Power Delivery. The maximum simultaneous power output is 81W, which means you can run two ports at the max charging rate at the same time.

I can't omit the most important feature, and that's the cool RGB light ring.

This configuration is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265F CPU, GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and a 1TB SSD. The Intel Core Ultra 7 265F is a 20-core processor with a max turbo frequency of 5.3GHz. It's cooled by a 240mm all-in-one liquid cooling system. The 1,000W power supply gives you headroom for upgrades down the road.

The GeForce RTX 5080 GPU will run any game in 4K

Performance-wise, the RTX 5080 is no slouch. It's one of the fastest cards on the market, bested only by the $2,000 RTX 5090 and the discontinued $1,600 RTX 4090. This is a phenomenal card for playing the latest, most demanding games in 4K resolution at high settings and ray tracing enabled. The recent DLSS 4.5 update has further optimized multi-frame gen and upscaling so you can push really high framerates even in 4K. More games are supporting this feature, including Doom: The Dark Ages, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Borderlands 4, Stellar Blade, and Battlefield 6. Check out our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 FE review for our hands-on impressions.

Arguably the better deal of the two flashlights here is the Sofirn Q8 Plus. It's currently $49.88 after $7 off coupon code "7USAFFS". This exact flashlight sells for $120 on Amazon.

The Q8 Plus is a beefly flashlight, measuring a modest 5.2 inches long but weighing in at just over one pound. This is an incredibly bright light with a maximum 16,000 lumen output and a throw distance of 554 meters (over 1/3 of a mile) thanks to six Cree XHP50B LEDs each with its own reflector. The light can be adjusted down to extend battery life. The hefty body acts as a heatsink that keeps the LEDs from thermally throttling, although the flashlight can get quite warm during extended usage under maximum power. Three 21700 batteries are included and can charged via a USB-C port.

I purchased this flashlight myself at AliExpress last year. It arrived quickly and was packaged in a retail box. The flashlight was in new condition and all the accessories were included. It is an outstanding flashlight for the price.

The LEGO Piranha Plant measures 9" high, 4.5" wide, and 6.5" deep – about the size of a potted plant – and consists of 540 bricks. The Piranha Plant makes for a fantastic display; it has numerous articulation points located at the head, mouth, stalk, and each of its leaves, and the jaw is also hinged, all of which allow for myriad customizable poses. There's even a cool little easter egg: A piggy bank is built into the pipe with two golden coins included to get you started on your stash. Despite the small brick count, this set is intended for ages 18+, so novice builders may need guidance. Once completed however, this adorable looking set is sure to be a hit with people of all ages, even if they didn't join in on the build.

Kevin Wong built this set for IGN and wrote, "As far as LEGO builds are concerned, the new Piranha Plant is just about perfect – vibrantly colored, well-proportioned and sized, and reasonably priced. Whether you're new to bricks or you're a dedicated hobbyist, this set captures that signature Mario franchise whimsy – cute but not too cute, menacing but not too menacing, and imbued with lots of personality."

Check out the LEGO Game Boy set

Another excellent LEGO x Nintendo collab is the LEGO Super Mario Game Boy 72046. This is a near 1:1 replica of the original Game Boy released back in 1989. The set comes with two game cartridges: Super Mario Land and The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and even includes their respective lenticular screens. Seth Macy built this set and loved it.

The LADPED electric scooters are solid entry level options for adults. Both models are equipped with a peppy 350W brushless motor that can push the scooter at speeds of up to 19mph. The LP80 is equipped with a 36V 10.5aH battery that lasts up to 18 miles on a single charge. The LP60 has a much smaller 36V 5.2AH battery that will give you half that range. Both scooters weigh about 34 pounds (the LP60 is a bit lighter because of the smaller battery) and can be folded for easier transport and storage. They're equipped with standard 8.5" maintenance free tires ideal for paved surfaces.

Other than that, there's not much more you could ask for from a sub-$150 scooter. More well-known scooter brands are a lot more expensive; the Segway Ninebot E2 and the Niu KQi 100P scooters both cost about $350, and they're also made in China (Segway was purchased by Ninebot in 2015, and is technically a Chinese company now). If cost was the reason that had been holding you back, than the prices on these LADPED scooters are a convincing excuse to get one now.

There's quite a lot to enjoy with this Deluxe Edition as well. Not only does it come with the main game, but you'll also get the two expansions, Night Springs and the Lake House. It also comes with cosmetics and items for both protagonists, Alan and Saga, including the Nordic Shotgun Skin, Crimson Windbreaker, and Lantern Charm for Saga, and Celebrity Suit and Parliament Shotgun Skin for Alan. In addition, you'll even get the digital edition of Alan Wake Remastered, so you can play through Alan's complete story across both games. It's a real treat for just $35 with this deal.

As mentioned before, it took home our top prize as the best horror game of 2023. As for why it earned this acknowledgement, IGN's Matt Purslow said "On the surface, Alan Wake 2 looks like Resident Evil, but beyond that familiar over-the-shoulder perspective is a game with unmatched vision. Its confident direction, using all manner of visual and audio tricks, drags you into a creepy world that offers unexpected surprises in every chapter."

Of course, our review had very high praise for it as well. IGN's Tristan Ogilvie said it, "delivers one of the boldest and most brain-bending survival-horror storylines this side of Silent Hill 2, presents it with uniformly immaculate art direction and audio design, and reinvigorates the series’ signature light-based shooting as though it’s been locked and loaded with a fresh pack of Energizers."

This Iniu power bank boasts a generous 20,000mAh, or 74Whr battery capacity. If you factor in 80% power efficiency, here are the approximate number of times you can fully recharge each gaming handheld:

• Nintendo Switch (16Whr) about 3.7 times
• Nintendo Switch 2 (19Whr) about 3.1 times
• Steam Deck (40Whr) about 1.5 times
• Apple iPhone 17 (14.3Whr) about 4.1 times
• Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max (19.8Whr) about 3 times

The Iniu power bank has three output ports: one built-in 45W USB Type-C cable, one 45W USB Type-C port, one USB Type-A port with up to 18W of power. The 45W of Power Delivery is enough to charge the Nintendo Switch 2 (19W) and Steam Deck (40W) at their fastest rate. This power bank is also a solid choice for charging your Apple iPhone 17.

The built-in cable is a popular feature on newer and generally pricier power banks because you no longer have to bring along your own USB Type-C cable. When you're on the go, the USB plug can be clipped onto the power bank to form a handy little lanyard. The cable itself is quite sturdy with a respectable break strength of 44 pounds and the lanyard loop when clipped to the power bank itself has a break strength of 13 pounds.

Just note that this set is best for adults.

While the Astro Bot deal might be out of stock on Amazon, Walmart has price-matched it, so you can still grab this awesome PS5-exclusive title for only $32.99. That’s 45% off the list price. Earning IGN’s Game of the Year Award in 2024, this 3D platformer brings fun for the whole family and even a bit of PlayStation nostalgia. In our review of Astro Bot, Simon Cardy found that with the “collection of endlessly inventive levels and fantastically fun abilities, it delivers joy in spades, never once becoming even remotely dull or repetitive.”

Anno 117: Pax Romana for PS5 is half off on the Amazon-owned Woot, and Prime members even get free shipping. The same game is currently $10 more on Amazon. This antique city-building game set during the Roman Empire in 117AD, hence the name, looks amazing. From building modest homes and planning out districts to naval combat and trade systems, there’s a whole lot of exciting possibilities. It even scored 9/10 in our review, and at this price, Anno 117 is definitely worth grabbing.
