This $15 Cordless Tire Inflator and Air Compressor Belongs in Your Car Emergency Kit

✇IGN

Every car absolutely needs a tire inflator as part of an emergency kit to be readily available at any time. If the only reason stopping you is the cost, then this deal should give you no more excuse. Ahead of Black Friday, Amazon is offering Prime members the Neverland cordless tire inflator and air compressor for just $14.99 after you clip the 18% off coupon and apply coupon code "NDKCVOXM" during checkout. Any brand of tire inflator you find on Amazon at around this price point was probably made from the one of few overseas factories. They might not have as many fancy features as other more expensive models, but they get the job done and that's what matters.

Neverland Cordless Tire Inflator and Air Compressor for $15

The Neverland tire inflator and air compressor features an internal lithium-ion battery. Cordless inflators are much more convenient to use because they don't need to be plugged in and can be charged with a standard USB Type-C cable. The compressor is rated for a maximum pressure of 150 PSI and can refill a 195/65 R15 tire from 25 to 36 PSI in about one minute. It also has an essential auto-stop feature to prevent you from dangerously overfilling your tires.

Like most tire inflators, this model can also be used as a cordless compressor to inflate other things as well, like bicycle tires, balls, inflatables, and more. The digital display is easy to read and can switch among four different units of measurements: psi, kpa, bar and kg/cm². It's also equipped with a USB output so that it can also be used as a 16,000mAh power bank to charg your phone or mobile electronics in a pinch.

Most people will get this tire inflator to keep their tires topped up, however it will come in handy during the real emergencies when you get a flat. Keep in mind though that If your tire has a puncture, there's no point filling it back up if it's going to leak again. So make sure you also have a tire patch kit on hand.

HP's All-in-One Plan Leases You a Printer and Unlimited Ink for a Low Monthly Price

✇IGN
Par :Eric Song

If you're in need of at-home printing but you don't want to deal with the upfront cost of buying a printer or the hassle of purchasing ink cartridges when they run out, then HP is offering a plan that might be perfect for you.

HP's All-in-One Plan is a convenient service that leases you a printer for a low monthly fee. Along with the printer, you get an unlimited supply of ink, continuous warranty coverage, and a monthy allotment of prints. There are several plans to choose from, with each offering a different printer and print allotment depending on your needs.

The four recommended plan tiers are as follows:

  • Basic - HP Envy inkjet printer with 20 pages of printing for $7.99/mo
  • Versatile - HP Envy Photo inkjet printer with 20 pages of printing for $9.99/mo
  • High-Volume - HP Smart Tank all-in-one printer with 100 pages of printing for $12.99/mo
  • Professional - HP OfficeJet Pro all-in-one printer with 50 pages of printing for $14.99/mo

The "High Volume" plan is marketed as the best value. It includes the HP Smart Tank 7602 all-in-one printer (retails for $470) and up to 100 pages of monthly printing. At $12.99 per month, it's not much more expensive than the "Basic" and "Versatile" plans, which come with a lower-end printer (with no all-in-one capabilities) and significantly less pages of printing per month. The one caveat is that it requires a three year commitment compared to two years for the other plans. Fortunately, HP offers a 30-day trial period during which you can test out the service with the freedom to opt out.

Is the HP All-in-One Plan worth it?

The big question is whether or not HP's All-in-One Plan is worth it in the first place. We can first break this out monetarily. The "High Volume" plan will run you $12.99 per month for 3 years, or a grand total of $467.64. As mentioned above, the printer you get retails for $469.99. That's about the same cost, but there are other factors to consider.

By buying the printer outright, you could probably find a discount. For example, it's currently on sale at Amazon for $349.99, saving you $120 right off the bat. Also, after 3 years, you'll still own the printer so that you can use it for many years after. If you subscribe to the plan, then you're out of a printer after 3 years unless you re-enroll.

However, by signing up for the plan, you avoid having to pay $400+ instantly, which is replaced by a more manageable monthly fee. You also essentially get three years of warranty service, as opposed to just one year if you bought the printer outright. You don't need to pay for ink during the life of the subscription. This is important because ink refills can get pricey very quickly to the point where it's often cheaper to just buy a new printer.

All things considered, it really depends on your situation. If you can justify the upfront cost, you plan to keep the same printer for more than three years, and you feel comfortable enough sourcing cheaper third-party ink, then just buy your own printer. If you'd rather stick with the convenience of letting HP worry about the printer along with its refills and maintenance, and you know that you can stay within tothe monthly printing allotment, then it's worth checking it out.

Par :Eric Song
↗️

If you're looking for an absolute monster of a gaming PC, you can't go wrong with Alienware's new Area-51 prebuilts. Deals have been scarce since the recent surge in RAM and GPU pricing, however you can still get sizeable discounts from Dell's official outlet store. For now, clearance, like new (refurbished), and scratch and dent models equipped with your choice of GeForce RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 graphics cards are still on sale for considerably lower prices than buying new.

All PCs purchased through Dell Outlet include the same warranty as buying new. Dell's certified refurbished systems are submitted to a rigorous refurbishing process. These previously owned products could have observable minor blemishes that do not affect performance, or could look as good as new.

Alienware Area-51 RTX 5080 Gaming PC Deals

The Alienware Area-51 Is Dell's Flagship Gaming PC

The Alienware Area-51 is Dell's flagship gaming PC. Unveiled during last year's CES, the Area-51 is a super-sized upgrade to the mainstream Aurora R16 system. The significantly larger chassis features more premium build quality and a redesigned cooling system with greater net airflow. In fact, this is the only model that Dell feels comfortable enough to equip with the hot and power hungry GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card.

The RTX 5090 is the most powerful graphics card ever

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 has emerged as the most powerful consumer GPU on the market. Although Nvidia has prioritized software updates, AI features, and DLSS 4 technology to improve gameplay performance, the 5090 still boasts an impressive 25%-30% uplift over the RTX 4090 in terms of pure, hardware-based raster performance. The 5090 also has a whopping 32GB of VRAM (33% more than the 4090), making it the ideal candidate for a hybrid rig looking to do both gaming and AI work on the same machine. Check out our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 FE review.

The RTX 5080 GPU will also 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. Check out our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 FE review.

Audible Kicks Off its First Sale of the Year, Get Premium Plus for Just $0.99 Per Month

✇IGN
Par :Eric Song
↗️

Audible's first sale of 2026 is now live. Now through January 21, new and returning Audible subscribers can sign up for three months of Audible Premium Plus for just $0.99 per month, or £0.99 in the UK. This time around it doesn't look like you need to be an Amazon Prime member either. After the three months is up, your subscription will convert to the standard $14.95/mo, so make sure to cancel beforehand if you don't want to continue with the service. You also get a free audiobook of your choice for each of those three months that you get to keep indefinitely.

Note that if you recently signed up for an Audible Premium Plus promotion, you may not be eligible even if your subscription has ended. There's usually a wait period (about 3-6 months) before you are re-eligible.

3 Free Months of Audible Premium Plus

Audible is a subscription service that gives you access to hundreds of thousands of the best audiobooks without ever having to purchase them. There are two paid membership plans: the lower tier Audible Plus ($7.95/mo) and the higher tier Audible Premium Plus ($14.95/mo). The biggest difference between the two is the size of the audiobook library. Whereas Audible Plus only lets you listen to a selection of about 10,000 audiobooks, the Audible Premium Plus plan gives you access to a whopping 500,000 audiobooks.

Premium Plus includes other perks as well. Every month Premium Plus members get to pick one audiobook to keep in their library indefinitely, even after the membership expires. Also, Premium Plus members can get 30% off any additional audiobooks they wish to purchase in addition to exclusive limited-time discounts.

If you were already planning to purchase a couple of audiobooks, then it makes more sense to pay less than $3 to get three audiobooks you get to keep indefinitely and enjoy all the benefits of Audible Premium Plus for three months. This deal only pops up a few times per year, so don't waste your "first-time subscriber" eligibility status on a short 30-day trial.

Catch up the the latest novel releases, audiobook style

Several best-selling new and recent releases are available in an audiobook format and part of Audible's Premium Plus subscription plan. Rebecca Yarros' The Empyrean Series romantasy novels have consistently hit the top of the New York Times' best seller list throughout all of 2025 and they're all available in audiobook format. Sunrise on the Reaping, the latest Hunger Games novel, is narrated by Jefferson White, who you may already know from Yellowstone where he played Jimmy Hudstrom. The audiobook has a listening time of about 12 hours and 48 minutes. Stephen King released his Never Flinch crime novel in May 27 and it's also available as a nearly 15-hour long audiobook narrated by veteran Jessie Mueller. If you're a fan of Brandon Sanderson, check out Wind and Truth, book five of the popular The Stormlight Archive series. It was released in December of 2024 and runs an epic 63 hours long.

Save $50 Off the New Apple AirPods Pro 3 Earbuds

Par :Eric Song
↗️

Heads up: AirPods Pro 3 earbuds just got a new price cut that beats all previous deals, including Black Friday. Amazon has lowered the price of the Apple AirPods Pro 3 earbuds to just $199.99 with free delivery. That's $20 lower than the Black Friday sale price, and a big drop compared to the retail price of $249. The AirPods Pro 3 is a solid upgrade and potentially a worthwhile purchase even if you already own a previous generation model.

AirPods Pro 3 Earbuds for $199.99 (New All-Time Low Price)

The AirPods Pro 3 launched on September 19 and is the newest generation AirPods Pro. Like its predecessor, this is easily the best earbuds for anyone who uses an iPhone. Although it looks pretty similar to the 2nd gen AirPods, there are some pretty significant improvements under the hood. The most notable new feature is the built-in heart rate sensing (which means you don't need an Apple Watch anymore), but the AirPods Pro 3 improves in other subtle ways as well, including better audio quality, better noise cancelation, long battery life, and a more weatherproof IP57 shell.

Released alongside the AirPods Pro 3 was Apple's "Live Translation", which is an Apple Intelligence feature that translates other languages on the fly. This isn't exclusive to the AirPods Pro since it can also be used with the 2nd gen AirPods Pro and the AirPods 4. First hand reports have been generally very positive, including this take from PCMag.

Joyroom 2,500mAh Portable Apple Watch Charger for $9.79

You no longer need to be near an outlet to charge your Apple Watch

If you need to buy a new Apple Watch charger, there's a better option than paying $29 for the official - but basic - charger. Amazon is currently offering the Joyroom Portable Apple Watch Charger that doubles as a 2,500mAh power bank for just $9.79 after you clip the coupon on the product page and apply coupon code "GJDNNUD8". Not only are you saving $20, you're also getting a charger that can keep your Apple Watch topped off even when there's no outlet nearby.

HP Omen 16 Gaming PC with RTX 5060 Ti 16GB GPU Drops to $1,099.99 at Best Buy

If you're looking for a capable 1080p gaming PC for about $1,000, you can't do much better than this deal. For this week only, Best Buy has the HP Omen 16 gaming PC with RTX 5060 Ti 16GB graphics card for just $1,099.99 shipped. This prebuilt will be able to run games at 60fps+ framerate in 1080p and even 1440p thanks to the 16GB of VRAM.

HP Omen 16 Gaming PC with RTX 5060 Ti 16GB for $1,099.99

The HP Omen 16 is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265F CPU, GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB GPU, 16GB of DDR5-5600MHz RAM, and a 1TB NVMe SSD. The Intel Core Ultra 7 265F CPU is a 20-core processor with a max boost clock of 5.3GHz. It's a solid general-purpose CPU that combines a high clock speed for games and plenty of cores for for multi-core performance. For games at least, you won't see any improvement upgrading to a Core Ultra 9.

The RTX 5060 Ti 16GB is much better than the 8GB found in most other prebuilts

The RTX 5060 Ti graphics card comes in two variants, with the only difference between the two being the amount of VRAM: 8GB or 16GB. Unlike the vast majority of prebuilts which are equipped with the 8GB model, this particular system is equipped with the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB model. If you can afford it, you should only get the 16GB model. Numerous outlets have shown that the performance gap between the 8GB and 16GB models is huge.

The RTX 5060 Ti (16GB) is a great GPU for 1080p gaming. It outperforms the RTX 4060 Ti by about 20%, and the gap widens in games that support DLSS 4 technology with multi-frame generation. The 16GB of VRAM also allows this GPU to hold its own in 1440p gaming, especially if you don't want to spend the extra $200-$300 to upgrade to an RTX 5070.

Stock Up on a Four-Pack of 10 Feet 100W USB Type-C Cables for Just $13 on Amazon

✇IGN
Par :Eric Song

USB Type-C has become the standard for charging and data cables alike. They can be used to charge nearly any device with a USB-C port, including your Nintendo Switch 2, Steam Deck, Legion Go, or ROG Ally, so it's good to have extra on hand. Here's an opportunity to pick up some lengthier cables at an excellent price.

Amazon is offering a four-pack of Basesailor 10ft 100W USB Type-C cables for just $13.39. To get this deal you'll need to add both the two pack of gray cables and a two pack of purple cables to your cart and apply coupon code "LUU2CPDS" during checkout. You're paying just $3.35 per cable. 10-foot USB-C cables typically go for about $15-20 each.

4-Pack of 10ft 100W USB Type-C Cables for $13.39

Must add BOTH of these cable packs to your cart and then apply code: "LUU2CPDS"

These cables have nearly 12,000 reviews on Amazon with an average 4.6 star rating. These cables are longer than your average length at 10 feet, which is super handy when your charging brick isn't conveniently close. For example, this is an ideal length for a charger that plugs directly into the wall, because chances are the outlet is down near the floor and a six foot cable may not be long enough. These cables are also rated for up to 100W of power delivery, which means they can be used to charge even the most high-powered of gaming handheld PCs and even most (non-gaming) laptops. They're encased in a braided nylon sheath for extra durability and aeshetics.

This is the second most powerful Intel mobile CPU currently available (the Ultra 9 285HX has a slightly higher clock speed) and goes toe to toe with AMD's flagship Ryzen 9 9955HX processor. This is an excellent CPU to pair with a powerful GPU like the 5080.

The GeForce RTX 5080 mobile GPU is better than the RTX 4090 mobile

The Legion Pro 7 laptop offers a robust cooling design that allows it to accomodate a more powerful GPU like the RTX 5080 without throttling it. That's important if you want to be able to play games comfortably on the display's enhanced 2560x1600 resolution. The RTX 5080 mobile GPU is roughly 15%-20% more powerful than the RTX 4080 mobile GPU that it replaces. In fact, it's slightly more powerful than the RTX 4090, which was the previous generation's flagship card. You should be able to run any game out there at consistent 60+ fps framerates.

The Best Dell & Alienware Deals and Coupons: Gaming Laptops, PCs, Monitors, and More

✇IGN
Par :Eric Song

Not everyone is the DIY type. If you're in the market for a prebuilt gaming PC, Dell is one of the best brands we'd recommend. Alienware desktops and laptops feature solid build quality, top-of-the-line gaming performance, excellent cooling (further improved on the newer models), aggressive styling, and pricing that is very competitive with other pre-built options. Best of all, there are plenty of sales that happen throughout the year, so it's not difficult to grab one of these computers at considerably less than their retail price.

Dell and Alienware Coupons

Alienware Aurora Gaming Laptop Deals

Alienware's newest mainstream gaming laptop is dubbed the "Alienware Aurora" and it replaces the previous generation's x16 and m16 series of laptops. It comes in two models: the 16 and 16X. The 16 is the more economical model, but gamers should definitely opt for the higher-end 16X model. If you're looking for build quality and performance on par with the previous generation m16, then the 16X is its spiritual successor. It features an anodized aluminum lid and base, a higher quality display, a more powerful CPU, and a GPU that isn't throttled for maximum gaming performance.

Alienware Aurora R16 Gaming PC Deals

The Aurora R16 is Alienware's bread and butter gaming PC. It can be equipped with an Nvidia RTX 5060 graphics card all the way up to an RTX 5080 and the prices for Cyber Monday are extremely competitive with other brands. For example, currently Alienware has the least expensive prebuilt RTX 5080 gaming PC that I've found anywhere. Most of these systems are customizable, however it's not difficult to upgrade your own RAM and storage yourself.

Alienware Area-51 Gaming PC Deals

If you're seeking the absolute best of the best in PC gaming performance, look no further. Dell unveiled the new Alienware Area-51 gaming PC at CES 2025. The chassis is a super-sized upgrade to the Aurora R16 system with aesthetic and cooling redesigns. The internal components have been refreshed with a new motherboard, faster RAM, and bigger power supply to accommodate the new generation of CPUs and GPUs. With a high-end system like this, it's only fitting that it be equipped with an RTX 5080 or RTX 5090 graphics card, so these are the configurations I've listed here. Note that Dell Outlet refurbished PCs come with the same warranty as buying new.

Alienware Area-51 Gaming Laptop Deals

Alienware 18 Area-51 (18")

Alienware 16 Area-51 (16")

The Area-51 is Alienware's new flagship gaming laptop for 2025. It features an anodized aluminum shell for both the lid and bottom chassis with a gorgeous iridescent finish. The frame is made of a durable and lightweight magnesium alloy. Cooling has been upgraded with generous amounts of copper and a new thermal interface material to better transfer heat away from your hottest components as well as more fans and bigger cutouts for greater airflow. Dell claims that the laptop can handle a higher power ceiling of up to 240W TDP without raising acoustics.

Design-wise, the Area 51 has a sleeker, more contoured shape compared to previous models, with rounded edges and soft corners replacing the traditional squared off design. The hinges are internally positioned so that they're near invisible. There's a transparent window on the undercarriage to show off the internal components. As befits an Alienware laptop, there's plenty of RGB illunimation, although most of it can be turned off if you want your laptop to be a bit more subtle.

The Massive 85" Samsung 4K Smart TV Drops to Just $699.99 with Free Delivery at Best Buy

When it comes to TVs, there's one simple rule I always tell people to abide by: get the biggest TV that can fit your space and is within your budget. I doubt very many people purchase a TV and regret it afterwards because it was "too big".

Nowadays, big TVs aren't even that expensive. For example, Best Buy is currently offering a massive 85" Samsung U7900 4K Smart TV for just $699.99 with free delivery. That's the lowest price I've ever seen for a Samsung TV of this size.

85" Samsung U7900 4K Smart TV for $699.99

This entry level 2025 Samsung TV offers a standard set of features in exchange for a rock bottom price. What you're getting is a native 4K TV that offers solid image quality with full array LED backlighting, HDR10+ support, and a 60Hz refresh rate with Motion Xcelerator technology that should satisfy most TV watchers. It has built-in speakers, two HDMI inputs for hooking up your gaming console or soundbar speaker, and Samsung's proprietary Tizen smart interface.

The Samsung U7900 Pairs Well With the Nintendo Switch 2

This TV is actually a great choice to pair with the Switch 2. When in docked mode, the new Switch 2 is able to run games at 4K resolution, however only at a maximum of 60fps. That means you only need a 60Hz refresh rate to maximize the Switch 2's 4K potential, which this TV supports.

This 48x20 Workbench Features a Solid Wood Desktop and Steel Frame for About $100

✇IGN
Par :Eric Song
↗️

You can easily find a serviceable desk or workbench for about $100 just by heading over to your nearest Ikea store. But if you insist on solid wood instead of a fiberboard or particleboard surface, then your options become more limited. Fortunately, there's one available at Amazon right now. For a limited time, you can get this 48"x20" adjustable height workbench - featuring a solid rubberwood desktop and steel frame - for just $105.99 with free delivery. Seeing as how the other options on the product page cost well over $200, this looks like a pretty fantastic deal.

48"x20" Workbench With Solid Wood Desktop for $105.99

The highlight feature of the "Enjoywood" workbench is most certainly the desktop, which is a finished butcher-block style rubberwood that measures 48" long, 20" wide, and 1.25" thick. Rubberwood is a hardwood with a hardness rating similar to cherry and walnut. The tabletop is completely solid, meaning there's no particleboard, fiberboard, or carboard interior. The desk sits atop a steel frame and four tubular legs that support a maximum load limit of 2,500 pounds, which is pretty impressive. The average standing desk, for example, supports less than 300 pounds. Additional quality of life features include a 4-outlet power strip that's integrated into the frame, pegboard mounting holes, and leveling feet.

Sure it's marketed as a workbench, but there's nothing stopping you from converting it into an industrial looking desk, except maybe for the fact that it's taller than your standard desk. Desks are typically 27" to 30" tall and this workbench is adjustable in height from 31.5" to 39.4", so you'll need a taller chair to compensate (or potentially remove the feet).

The $10 Joyroom Apple Watch Charger Has an Internal 2,500mAh Battery for Charging on the Go

If you need to buy a new Apple Watch charger, there's a better option than paying $29 for the official - but basic - charger. Amazon is currently offering the Joyroom Portable Apple Watch Charger that doubles as a 2,500mAh power bank for just $9.79 after you clip the coupon on the product page and apply coupon code "GJDNNUD8". Not only are you saving $20, you're also getting a charger that can keep your Apple Watch topped off even when there's no outlet nearby.

Joyroom 2,500mAh Portable Apple Watch Charger for $9.79

You no longer need to be near an outlet to charge your Apple Watch

The Joyroom charger works similarly to the official Apple charger. Like the official charger, you plug the Joyroom charger into an available USB Type-C port. Then you simply set your Apple Watch on the base without having to plug anything in. The Watch magnetically attaches and starts charging wirelessly. However, that's where the similarities end.

The Joyroom has a built-in 2,500mAh battery that allows you to charge your Apple Watch even when no outlet is readily available. It also happens to be one of the largest capacities I've seen for a portable watch charger (most are 1,000 to 2,000mAh). The battery is good for about three to four watch charges. When not in use, the cable can be looped to create an unobstrusive lanyard. There's even a display that shows remaining battery charge.

Although the Joyroom is designed for an Apple Watch, it can charge other MagSafe products like the AirPods Pro 2. The USB Type-C cable can also be used to charge your iPhone 15, 16, or 17 in a pinch.

The Lenovo LOQ RTX 5060 Gaming PC Drops to $799.99, Great Budget 1080p Option

Shopping around for a budget PC under $1,000? Best Buy has one deal available right now that matches the best deal I saw during Black Friday. For this week only, the Lenovo LOQ gaming PC with GeForce RTX 5060 graphics card drops to just $799.99 shipped. Despite the low price tag, this PC is still more powerful than the upcoming Steam PC and will get you a consistent 60fps on just about any game at 1080p resolution.

Lenovo LOQ RTX 5060 Gaming PC for $799.99

The Lenovo LOQ gaming PC is equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX CPU, GeForce RTX 5060 GPU, 16GB of DDR5-5200MHz RAM, and a 1TB NVMe SSD. The AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX is an 8-core, 16-thread processor with a max boost clock of 5.1GHz. It's a solid general-purpose CPU that complements the RTX 5060 GPU. 16GB of RAM is more than sufficient for any gaming scenario, and fortunately the recent price surge in DRAM hasn't affected the price of this prebuilt.

The RTX 5060 outperforms its predecessor the RTX 4060 by about 20%-30% and that's before factoring in DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation. This is a solid budget option for 1080p gaming and you should be able to squeeze consistent 60fps+ framerate out of just about any game. If you're gunning for higher resolutions like 1440p or 4K, however, you'll definitely want to upgrade to an RTX 5060 Ti (16GB) or better.

On a side note, this is a considerably more powerful computer than the upcoming Steam Machine, which is reported to feature a custom GPU equivalent to the Radeon RX 7600M. Granted we still don't know how much the Steam Machine will cost now, but unless it comes it at under $700, this prebuilt is most likely the better value.

Save $100 Off the New Apple Watch Series 11 and Own Your New Years Fitness Resolution

If you're trying to get healthier this year as one of your New Years resolutions, an Apple Watch would be a great tool to help you achieve your goal. Fortunately, the newest generation Apple Watch Series 11 is back on sale to kickstart the new year. Amazon is taking $100 off most colors and styles, starting at just $299 for the 42mm size and $329 for the 46mm size. This beats the lowest price during Black Friday and is a small price to pay for getting your health back on track.

Apple Watch Series 11 for $299 ($100 Off)

The Apple Watch is indisputably the best smartwatch for iOS users. It's stylish, boasts excellent build quality, and seamlessly integrates with your iPhone. It's loaded with tons of practical health and fitness features, including activity tracking and heart rate monitoring. The stats from your workouts are automatically recorded and stored onto your iPhone so that you can track your progress through the course of the year.

New to the current generation model specifically are (1) the Apple Intelligence powered "Workout Buddy" that motivates you during exercise, (2) hypertension notifications, and (3) a sleep score that measures the quality of your sleep. Hardware updates include a brighter and more scratch resistant display, 33% longer battery life, and 5G cellular connectivity.

Can you use an Apple Watch with Android phones?

Although it's technically possible to use an Apple Watch with an Android phone, we wouldn't recommend it. Apple made it so that a lot of the functionality of the Apple Watch requires a smartphone with an iOS operating system. There are some workarounds to implement some of the features, but for the average person, the hassle isn't worth it. If you're absolutely intent on getting an Apple Watch, then getting an iPhone first would be the best option.

The Samsung P9 256GB MicroSD Express Nintendo Switch 2 Memory Card Drops to Just $35

✇IGN
Par :Eric Song

Switch 2 owners, if there's one upgrade you'll absolutely need, it's additional storage. The Switch 2 only has 256GB of onboard storage, and chances are you'll run out of space down the road. Fortunately, Amazon just lowered the price of the 256GB Samsung P9 MicroSD Express card, which will double your available storage, to just $34.99. This matches the best deal that I saw during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. You don't have to worry about performance, either. We recently reviewed this exact card and strongly recommend it.

256GB Samsung P9 MicroSD Express Memory Card

Nintendo Switch 2 compatible

As you should already know, the Switch 2 console will only accept MicroSD Express cards. If you have a standard MicroSD card from your previous Switch, you sadly won't be able to use it to store games in the Switch 2. Although the two might look similar, MicroSD Express cards are much, much faster than their precedessors, with speeds of up to 800MB/s. MicroSD cards, on the other hand, cap out at well under 200MB/s.

This Samsung P9 Express is guaranteed to be compatible with your Switch 2 console. In fact, Samsung is the company that manufactures Nintendo's official Switch 2 memory card. It's very likely these two cards are identical.

If you're a Windows user who's looking for a PC version of the Apple Mac Mini, then one of the most popular models has dropped in price. Amazon is currently offering the AceMagic Kron Mini K1 AMD Ryzen 7 7730U Mini PC for just $385.56 shipped with coupon code "32GB1TBACE". This is a great opportunity to pick up a complete tiny PC package that includes everything - the CPU/GPU, RAM, storage, and OS - for less than the cost of a Mac Mini.

AceMagic Kron Mini K1 AMD Ryzen 7 7730U Mini PC for $386

The AceMagic Kron Mini K1 is small, really small, measuring 5" x 5" x 1.6", roughly the same size as a Mac Mini. It's equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 7730U 8-core CPU with a max turbo frequency of 4.5GHz and Vega 8 onboard graphics. This is an efficient chip with a low 15W TDP rating, yet still powerful enough to run all of your everday apps, and even some light gaming. It's paired with 32GB of DDR4 RAM and a 1TB M.2 SSD. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed.

There are plenty of connectivity options here. Running down the list, the ports include six USB 3.2 ports, one USB 3.2 Type-C port, one HDMI 2.0 port, one DisplayPort 1.4b port, one 3.5mm audio jack, and one gigabit ethernet jack.

USB Type-C has become the standard for charging and data cables alike, so it's good to have extra on hand. Amazon is offering a two-pack of Lisen 6.6ft 240W USB Type-C cables for just $5.60 after you apply coupon code "4CCBGLIF". That averages out to $2.80 per cable. USB-C cables typically go for about $10 each at your local big box store. Use these to charge or sync any device with a USB-C port, including your Nintendo Switch 2, iPhone 16, or even a laptop.

2-Pack of Lisen 6.6ft 240W USB Type-C Cables for $5.60

Keep your cable collection simple. These cables measure 6.6 feet in length, which is a great general purpose length: long enough to still be able to use your device while the cable is plugged in, but not so long as to be an unnecessary nuisance. These cables are also rated for up to 240W of power delivery, which means they can be used to charge even high powered electronics like your laptop. They're encased in a braided nylon sheath for extra durability and aeshetics. Lisen claims that they've been lab tested for up to 40,000+ bends and 175lb tensile pulls, "equivalent to a decade of daily extreme use". These cables have 5,000 ratings on Amazon with an average 4.6 star rating.

The Alienware Area-51 Ryzen X3D Edition RTX 5090 Gaming PC Drops in Price for the First Time

✇IGN
Par :Eric Song
↗️

If you're seeking the absolute best of the best in PC gaming performance, look no further than Alienware's flagship Area-51 gaming PC equipped with a GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card. To kick off the new year, Dell has discounted the Ryzen Edition model for the first time ever. More specifically, the Alienware Area-51 gaming PC equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU and RTX 5090 GPU is available for $5,049.99 shipped after a $550 instant discount.

Alienware Area-51 Ryzen Edition RTX 5090 Gaming PC

The Alienware Area-51 is Dell's flagship gaming PC. Unveiled during last year's CES, the Area-51 is a super-sized upgrade to the mainstream Aurora R16 system. The significantly larger chassis features more premium build quality and a redesigned cooling system with greater net airflow. In fact, this is the only model that Dell feels comfortable enough to equip with the hot and power hungry GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card. The first wave of Area-51 systems featured Intel CPUs exclusively, with AMD X3D options only available since late November.

This particular configuration is equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU, GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card, 32GB or DDR5-6400MHz RAM, and a 1TB SSD. Additional system details include a 360mm all-in-one liquid cooling system for the CPU and a massive 1,500W 80Plus Platinum power supply that allows plenty of headroom for future upgrades.

AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is the best gaming CPU for most people

The AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is considered to be the best gaming processor currently on the market and outperforms any Intel or AMD non-X3D chip in games thanks to AMD's 3D-V-Cache technology.

Although the 9800X3D is an absolute speed demon for gaming, it only has eight cores. If you regularly use your PC for non-gaming applications that benefit from as many cores as possible, then you can upgrade to an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D 16-core processor, which doubles the core count while offering similar gaming performance, for an additional $300.

The RTX 5090 is the most powerful graphics card ever

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 has emerged as the most powerful consumer GPU on the market. Although with this generation Nvidia has prioritized software updates, AI features, and DLSS 4 technology to improve gameplay performance, the 5090 still boasts an impressive 25%-30% uplift over the RTX 4090 in hardware-based raster performance. If you want the absolute best performance for your gaming PC, there is literally no other option from any other brand.

Our Favorite Nintendo Switch 2 Slim Case Drops to a New Lowest Price Ever

✇IGN
Par :Eric Song
↗️

The Tomtoc Slim is one of the best compact Nintendo Switch 2 cases you can get and it's on sale today. Amazon has it in your choice of several colors starting at just $24.99 after up to 32% off in savings. The gray and matcha green models in particular are less expensive than what I saw during Black Friday. It's also a much better deal than the official Nintendo Switch 2 case which currently sells for $39.99 and, in our opinion, has lower overall build quality.

Tomtoc Slim Nintendo Switch 2 Carrying Case for $24.99

Tomtoc has a history of making great cases for mobile electronics, including most current gaming handhelds like the original Switch and Switch Lite, Steam Deck, and Asus ROG Ally. Its signature trademark is the raised indent patterning for each handheld's analog joystick and button layout. This is mostly an aesthetic touch, but it helps set Tomtoc cases apart.

Material-wise, the Tomtoc is a molded hard shell case with a felt inner lining. It has an interior flap that can fit up to 12 game cards, a buckle strap, and durable YKK zipper that's smoother and easier to use than the Genki Sleeper case. Note that since this is a slim case with as minimal of a footprint as possible, there's no room to fit a charger.

Need something bigger?

If you're looking for something roomier, Tomtoc also has a sling-style case that's specifically made for portable gaming handhelds including the Switch 2. The padded compartment is shaped like a "W" to make room for a wide range of handhelds that have dual analog joysticks. It's not specifically designed for the Switch 2, so don't expect a molded fit, but there's plenty of room here to fit extra controllers, a charger or power bank, and more.

Kickstart Your New Years Cleaning Resolution With This $20 Cordless Electric Air Duster

✇IGN
Par :Eric Song
↗️

Give your desk area a good cleaning as part of your New Years resolutions. Compressed air canisters used to be the standard but nowadays electric air dusters have taken over as a more convenient and less expensive option. Amazon is currently offering the JVSCAM Cordless Rechargeable Electric Air Duster for just $19.98 after coupon code "4OIDBVTT". Normally this deal is reserved for Amazon Prime members, but this time is available for everyone.

JVSCAM Cordless Electric Air Duster for PC for $19.99

The JVSCAM cordless rechargeable electric air duster is a fairly straightforward device. An internal fan spins at up to 130,000RPM to move an appreciable amount of air. A nozzle funnels the air into a tight, high-velocity stream that's more than strong enough to kick up layers of dust that's been sitting on top of your computer components. It has three speed settings, although I would recommend keeping it at the max speed for optimal results. You also get four different sized nozzles, including a narrow funnel for tight spaces like between your keyboard's keys, and a wider nozzle for AoE damage.

The best thing about an electric duster as opposed to a compressed air canister is that it isn't disposable. It's rechargeable via the included USB-C cable, and its battery lasts more than long enough for your PC maintenance. And that's not all it's good for; I use a similar duster for other tasks, including cleaning out my coffee grinder and blowing leaves off the car.

The iBuypower Y40 Pro GeForce RTX 5080 Gaming PC Drops to $2,110 at Best Buy

✇IGN
Par :Eric Song
↗️

You might want to jump on a PC upgrade sooner than later. Prices of prebuilts are expected to go up this year because of the inflated demand for DDR5 RAM and production cuts on Nvidia's graphics cards.

For this week only, Best Buy just dropped the price on the powerful iBuypower Y40 Pro gaming PC, equipped with an AMD Ryzen 9 7900X processor and RTX 5080 graphics card, to just $2,109.99 shipped. Although this system was a bit cheaper during Black Friday, it's currently the lowest price I can find for a prebuilt RTX 5080 gaming PC.

iBuypower Y40 Pro RTX 5080 Gaming PC for $2,110

The iBuypower Y40 Pro is equipped with an AMD Ryzen 9 7900X processor, GeForce RTX 5080 16GB graphics card, 32GB of DDR5 RAM, and a 2TB PCIe Gen 4 M.2 SSD. The AMD Ryzen 9 7900X CPU has a max turbo frequency of 5.6GHz with 12 cores, 24 threads, and a 64MB L2 cache. In terms of gaming performance, this CPU is comparable to the Intel Core i7-14700K according to Passmark benchmarks. With a high clock speed and a decent number of cores, this is a great CPU for both gaming and productivity and is a good complement to the RTX 5080 GPU.

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 RTX 5080 supports DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation, which means you can push even more frames out of games that support the technology with minimal visual compromise. Recent games that support it include 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.

Amazon is currently offering the Iniu 10,000mAh 45W Power Bank for just $11.21 after you clip a 49% off coupon on the product page.

Iniu 10,000mAh 45W Power Bank for $11.21

This Iniu power bank features a 10,000mAh (37Wh) battery capacity. If you factor in 80% power efficiency, here are the approximate number of times you can fully recharge some of the more popular gaming handhelds and smartphones:

  • Nintendo Switch (16Whr) about 1.9 times
  • Nintendo Switch 2 (20Whr) about 1.5 times
  • Steam Deck (40Whr) about 0.74 times

The Iniu power bank has three output ports: two 45W USB Type-C ports and one USB Type-A port. The built-in lanyard doubles as a 5" USB Type-C cable. The 45W of Power Delivery is enough to charge the Nintendo Switch (18W) and Steam Deck (40W) at their fastest rate. This power bank is also a good match with the Apple iPhone 17, since ChargerLAB has shown that the charging rate caps at about 30W for the iPhone 17 and 37W for the iPhone 17 Pro.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, 5070, and 5060 Ti Graphics Cards Are Still at MSRP, But for How Long?

✇IGN
Par :Eric Song
↗️

The short-term outlook doesn't bode well with regards to GPU pricing. PCMag and other outlets have reported that Nvidia may cut back production on its consumer graphics cards by up to 30%-40% due to the demand of DRAM and Nvidia's shift in focus to supplying AI data centers. As a result of the dwindling supply, GPU prices are expected to rise in 2026.

Fortunately if you're thinking of upgrading your PC right now, it's not too late to get a current generation GeForce graphics card at retail pricing. Select variants of the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, RTX 5070, and RTX 5060 Ti 16GB graphics cards are currently available at Walmart and Amazon without any markup, but who knows for how long.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Graphics Card for $549

The RTX 5070 performs on par with the previous generation RTX 4070 Super - which was already an excellent card for 1080p and 1440p gaming - but with DLSS4 and multi-frame generation. It's equipped with 12GB of GDDR7 VRAM which allows it to keep up with high-fps gaming at 1440p. You'll even be able to play less demanding games at 4K as well, although you'll see a significant performance uplift upgrading to the 5070 Ti at that point.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB Graphics Card for $449.99

There are two RTX 5060 Ti variants floating around with the only difference being the amount of VRAM, either 8GB or 16GB. If you can afford it, you should only get the 16GB model. Numerous outlets have shown that the performance gap between the 8GB and 16GB models is huge. The model I've linked to above is a 16GB model, which is an excellent option for 1080p gaming. It outperforms the RTX 4060 Ti by about 20% and the RTX 3060 Ti by 40% and that's without DLSS4.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Graphics Card for $749

The RTX 5070 Ti GPU Is Our Best Reviewed Nvidia Blackwell GPU

It excels at 4K gaming performance at a reasonable price point

Of all the Blackwell cards released thus far, the RTX 5070 Ti offers the best value for high-fps 4K gaming. It performs neck-and-neck with the RTX 4080 Super but with the added bonus of newer GDDR7 VRAM and DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation. If you plan on using this card for AI, the RTX 5070 Ti is a better value than the RTX 5080 since both have same amount of RAM (16GB). Compared to AMD, the RTX 5070 Ti is roughly comparable in raw performance to the AMD RX 9070 XT, but the 5070 Ti has considerably better upscaling technology and ray tracing performance.
