The Alienware AW3426DW is discounted to $742.22 at Amazon, just over $50 off its usual price of $799.99. It’s not quite the lowest price we’ve seen on this well-equipped gaming monitor, but still a decent discount. The 34-inch screen just came out a couple months ago, and is equipped with Penta Tandem quantum dots for bolder colors than you’ll find on other QD-OLED panel. And of course, it provides the deep blacks and high contrast expected of the display tech.
This ultrawide (21:9) QHD OLED gaming monitor has a 280Hz refresh rate, a fast response time, and a slick design. It’s tough to get more OLED for your money than with this model when it’s discounted.
Alienware supports both Nvidia G-Sync and FreeSync Premium Pro adaptive refresh rate tech, so PC gamers with modern GPUs can enjoy a smooth frame rate when their systems can’t output a frame rate that matches its native 280Hz refresh rate. The 1800R curve adds an immersive element to the setup, and it has two HDMI 2.1 ports, as well as DisplayPort, and USB-A and USB-C for charging and connecting peripherals.

If you missed out on Prime Day’s headphones deals, you’re in luck. Sony’s latest flagship headphones are selling for even less than they did during Amazon’s big fall sale. As part of B&H Photo’s Deals of the Day, you can currently pick up Sony’s WH-1000XM6 noise-canceling headphones in silver for just $328 at checkout ($130 off) for the rest of the day. That’s one of the best prices we’ve seen, and much cheaper than what you’ll typically pay at major retailers like Amazon and Best Buy, even during seasonal sales.
The WH-1000XM6 are Sony’s best over-ear headphones yet, thanks in part to a new chip, which Sony says delivers the most powerful active noise cancellation in the series. Unsurprisingly, they also deliver the best sound of any WH-1000XM-series headphones to date, with new drivers that produce clearer vocals and richer bass. They’re great for work and life outside the office, too, thanks to improved call quality and multipoint Bluetooth, which lets you stay connected to two devices at once.
If you travel or commute frequently, you might appreciate that Sony brought back the foldable design of the XM4, making the headphones easier to pack. Their wider headband also helps with comfort during long listening sessions, and the earcups can be easily removed for cleaning or to be replaced when needed. Battery life remains solid at up to 30 hours with ANC enabled, and as an added convenience, you can now charge them while listening — provided you use a 3.5mm audio cable alongside a USB-C charging cable.

It’s like a big Apple Watch for the home. | Image: Apple
Apple only just announced on Tuesday that its first smart display, the HomeView, will arrive on November 13th, but you can already save a couple bucks on it. Right now, you can buy the display for $289.99 ($10 off) in gray and the creamy white “starlight” colorway at Amazon. Sure, it’s a small discount, but deals on new Apple devices ahead of launch are rare.
Expect a full review of the HomeView in November, but my colleague Jennifer Pattison Tuohy spent some brief time with it and likened it to an “iPhone for your home” that looks a bit like an oversized Apple Watch. It features a gorgeous seven-inch square touchscreen that can recognize up to six household members and automatically switch between personalized experiences, displaying information relevant to whoever is using it.
As you might already know, the HomeView also doubles as a smart home hub, with support for Matter and Thread. You can use it to control compatible smart home devices, view live feeds and recorded footage from HomeKit Secure Video cameras, and more. It also features a 12-megapixel FaceTime camera for video calls, and doubles as an entertainment device, letting you play music, display photos, and more.
Apple’s AI-powered Siri assistant is another big part of the experience, allowing you to ask questions and get information using personal context from your messages, calendar, and emails. That means you can ask it to find your lost keys, play a song someone texted you, pull up a recipe with step-by-step instructions and built-in timers, or help you keep track of your schedule without having to reach for your phone.
There are several deals happening right now on video games and gaming-related tech that are worth sharing. To start, this month’s Humble Choice drop of Steam PC games is really good. The $14.99 per month service is offering subscribers Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, Price of Persia: The Lost Crown, Psychonauts 2, Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor, and more. You get to keep the games forever, even if you pay just for this month. I’ve tossed around getting each of these games on Steam in the past, and it’s great to get them all here for such a low price.
I’m not going to convince you to hang onto the membership any longer than you plan to, though while you have it, make sure to use it to save on digital games you were considering buying. Nintendo Switch 2 games, for example, are discounted, making Humble the place to get the cheapest prices. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is $53.99 for members, and most other full-price games are about $6 off the retail price.
Other great Verge-approved deals
Valve told The Verge in late 2025 that it was no longer manufacturing the Valve Index wired virtual reality headset. The company is now running through the last of its stock and is marking down what’s left by 20 percent. The headset itself is $399.20, down from $499, replacement left controllers are $119.20 (was $149), and replacement tether cables are $103.20, down from $129. The headset requires a base station (also known as a lighthouse) in order to track, and those are unfortunately no longer available via Valve. You’ll have to hit up eBay or Craigslist to get one. Read our review of the 2019 headset.
First-person looter shooter Borderlands 4 is all the way down to $19.91 for disc editions of the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 title at Amazon. The price for the 2025 game is usually sitting at around $30, though this is the most affordable price to date. The latest game in the series is good at what Borderlands has always been good for: co-op multiplayer goodness. It’s still really fun to jump in with a friend to blaze through its campaign, even if the gameplay is fairly shallow. Read our review.
Lastly, whether you already saw Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey in theaters or you’ve been waiting for watch it at home, the 4K Blu-ray version is available to preorder with a small discount. Originally priced at $34.99, the set that includes a 4K Blu-ray, a standard 1080p Blu-ray, plus a digital code for the film is $29.99 at Best Buy and $29.65 at Barnes and Noble (members can save 10 percent more). If it’s your first-ever purchase on Gruv, you can get the set for $25.46 when you use the code FIRSTGRUV15 at checkout. The film launches November 17th. Read our review of seeing it in IMAX.
The Headphone A keep the shape and style of Nothing’s over-ear design, but with an opaque instead of transparent case. | Photo by John Higgins / The Verge
One of the best deals we’ve seen today bundles together a great pair of headphones with a solid album. When you add the Nothing Headphone A in black or white and the CD version of the Charli XCX album Music, Fashion, Film to your Amazon cart, you’ll save 33 percent on your order, bringing the total down to $97.52. That’s lower than the best price we’ve seen for the headphones on their own, which retail for $199, and you get a free album to boot. The other colors also qualify for the discount, but have a higher starting price, so the discounted price will be higher as well.
Nothing Headphone A
Nothing’s second over-ear headphones may not offer everything found on the pricier Nothing Headphone 1, but you do get physical controls, good sound, and more than five days of battery life per charge. Their design is also a bit more discreet, for better or worse. Read our review.
We reviewed the Nothing Headphone A when they launched earlier in 2026, and praised them for their physical controls, IP52 dust and water resistance rating, and excellent battery life. They have a more subtle design than other Nothing products, opting for an opaque housing instead of the translucent shells on other Nothing headphones.
The Xteink X4 Pro is still matching its Prime Day price. | Photography by Andrew Liszewski / The Verge
If you’re looking for an e-reader that can easily fit in your pocket (or snap onto your magnet-equipped phone), the tiny Xteink X4 Pro might be worth a look. It features a 4.26-inch, 800 x 480 E Ink display, making it significantly smaller and thinner than Amazon’s smallest six-inch Kindle. It’s also quite a bit cheaper. Right now, you can pick it up for $84.15 ($25 off) at Amazon, which is its best price to date.
The X4 Pro brings several welcome upgrades over its predecessors, including a touchscreen that gives readers another way to interact with it. It still has physical page-turning buttons, though. There’s also a new touch-sensitive button below the display for quickly returning to the home screen, along with a built-in light with adjustable brightness and color temperature, so you can read in the dark. It ships with the excellent CrossPoint Reader software, which makes navigating your library and reading books a much better experience than on previous Xteink models we’ve tested, though it’s still not quite as polished as Amazon’s software.
Understandably, not everyone is a fan of Xteink’s decision to swap the X4 Pro’s USB-C port for a proprietary charging connector. If you can look past that, the X4 Pro is a great, little e-reader that features magnets that let you attach it to compatible smartphones, just like previous models. The magnetic connection is stronger this time around, though we still wish it were a little more secure. All the same, my colleague Andrew Liszewski still considers the X4 Pro the best tiny e-reader you can buy, calling it a device he “won’t leave the house without.”
Apple is getting into smart displays with its new HomeView. It has a seven-inch squircle design, looking similar to a gargantuan Apple Watch mounted to a speaker base. The $299 HomeView is meant to be the centerpiece for Apple's big push into the home, as it's capable of controlling a host of smart home tech. Additionally, it can display recipes, show music playback controls, let you make FaceTime calls, and display a host of widgets.
The HomeView launches on Friday, November 13th, and it'll likely be a popular holiday gift. You can preorder in in multiple colors, and you have the option at checkout to either include a speaker base (it incl …
After nearly six years, Apple debuted a new, improved HomePod Mini. The $149 HomePod Mini 2 will launch on Friday, October 30th, and you can place a preorder now through Apple.
The speaker includes the S10 chip, which debuted in the Apple Watch Series 10, and it can power a host of features. It will support Siri AI after a future update, pairing you with a better, more helpful voice assistant. The speaker can be integrated into a four-speaker surround system with the new Apple TV 4K, and they can serve as speakers for a Mac computer (so long as it supports Wi-Fi 6E). Lastly, the top of th …
Amazon has the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra in black with 256GB of storage discounted to $949.99, a healthy discount from its usual price of $1,399.99. This phone’s standout feature is the adjustable privacy display, which can hide your entire screen, or just portions of it, from onlookers and strangers. It doesn’t meaningfully hurt the screen’s performance otherwise, and it’s only noticeable at steep angles, and it includes a built-in stylus for writing or drawing.
Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra
Samsung’s 6.9-inch S26 Ultra is the only model in the lineup with the new privacy display, designed to limit what people around you can see on your screen. It also includes the S Pen and upgrades the camera hardware, adding dual telephoto lenses alongside a 200-megapixel main sensor. Read our review.
Even beyond the privacy display, the S26 Ultra is an impressive flagship phone for mobile enthusiasts. The upgraded camera hardware makes a big difference when it comes to photo quality, particularly in low lighting conditions. For better or worse, it’s still a sizable phone, with a 6.9-inch AMOLED display, but it’s slimmer and more comfortable than the S25 Ultra.
Pokémon trainers gearing up for battle. | Image: Nintendo
After covering Amazon’s October sale for the last few days, only one item found its way into my shopping cart, and, lucky for you, it’s still on sale after the event’s conclusion. Pokémon Legends: Z-A for the Nintendo Switch or Switch 2 is $39.88 (usually $59.99 for Switch or $69.99 for Switch 2) at Amazon. The last Pokémon game I played was Let’s Go Eevee!, and Pokémon Moon prior to that, but the unique Lumiose City setting and real-time battles in the latest game have piqued my interest.
Pokémon Legends: Z-A
Pokémon Legends: Z-A is the first game in the main series with a real-time battling system instead of the traditional turn-based formula. You’re still catching pokémon, leveling up, trading, and battling in the game’s Paris-inspired setting, but themore action-oriented battles and smooth performance (on the Nintendo Switch 2) are very welcome.
We reviewedPokémon Legends: Z-A close to its release last October, and felt like it continued the “Legends” series reputation for overhauling core aspects of the games that many find to be outdated. If you want even more content, Mega Dimension is available as paid DLC (it costs $29.99). A new Switch 2 Edition game bundle that contains the base game and DLC will drop on October 29th, 2026 for $99.99, so I suggest grabbing the game while it’s cheaper.
It’s always a little awkward when this many deals survive what was supposed to be the “end” of a big Amazon sale. Nevertheless, I’m happy to say that most of the sale’s heaviest-hitting deals are still around — Apple’s discounts on its Mac Mini, MacBook Air, and AirPods Pro 3, plus all of Sony’s current and last-gen flagship headphones, and more. In some cases, prices went up a smidge but are still worth checking out.
Like earlier this week, some of the deals on Amazon require a Prime subscription, while others do not. Many of these deals are available on competing sites, including Best Buy, Walmart, Target, and in some cases from the products’ manufacturer. You can sort the deals below by category.
We’ll be back to our regular deal coverage tomorrow.

Apple’s latest Mac Mini is just as small as the last-gen model, but more powerful. The M6 chip is about 20 percent faster than the M4. Read our review.
The iPhone Air is Apple’s thinnest iPhone yet at 5.6mm, featuring a 6.5-inch ProMotion display, a 48MP fusion camera, and an 18MP front camera with Center Stage support. But its single rear camera and “meh” battery life mean it’s not for everyone.
The iPhone 16E is the spiritual successor to the iPhone SE, bringing flagship-level performance for less than the standard 16. We really wish it included MagSafe for $599, but those upgrading from older iPhones will probably be satisfied with what’s included.
While it won’t charge your Switch 2 any faster than the cheaper Belkin option, the clever battery-meets-kickstand with a built-in display simply looks better.

You can also control it with Amazon Alexa through a compatible smart speaker. The Roku Channel app lets you stream over 400 free live TV stations, plus exclusive movies like Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.
Roku’s Streaming Stick Plus supports 4K playback and features a slim design, so it won’t block nearby ports. It plugs straight into your TV’s HDMI port and can be powered by your TV’s USB port, so you don’t need an additional plug. It also comes with Roku’s Voice Remote, giving you hands-free control.
The WiiM Mini makes it easy to wirelessly stream music from your phone, a streaming service, or other local storage to existing speakers you already have. It supports AirPlay 2 and a variety of streaming services.

It also works with Apple Home, Amazon Alexa, and Google Home, making it easy to integrate into most smart homes.
The Kindle Scribe Colorsoft is Amazon’s first note-taking e-reader with a color screen. It features an 11-inch display, a slimmer design, an improved interface, an updated stylus, and a new AI-powered search feature that can quickly summarize documents.
The third-gen Kindle Scribe 32GB is even bigger than its 10.2-inch predecessor; it offers an 11-inch display with 300ppi resolution and the same great battery life that Kindles are known for.
Amazon’s last-gen Kindle Colorsoft features a color E Ink screen, offering similar performance to the new 2026 model. It also offers eight weeks of battery life and a 7-inch display that’s great for comics and graphic novels. Read our review.

For something between Bose’s SoundLink Flex and the Max, the Plus strikes a good balance with booming bass, loud volume that doesn’t get distorted, and an easy-to-clean design. Read our review.
The second-gen SoundLink Flex builds on the original with more intuitive controls, including a new play / pause button. It also adds adjustable EQ and support for higher-quality audio via AAC and aptX, while retaining a rugged IP67-rated design and the ability to pair two speakers for stereo sound.
This innovative new smart lock uses the U1 ultra-wideband (UWB) chip in many iPhones and Apple Watches to automatically unlock your door as you approach. It will also work with the new Aliro standard and be compatible with Android phones for hands-free unlocking.
The G400 was the first wired-only video doorbell to work with Apple’s HomeKit Secure Video feature. It has solid specs for the price, and includes a chime to sound indoors.

Just over a week ago, we covered a deal at Amazon that knocked around 30 percent off Roku’s new (and first-ever) OLED TVs. The deal expired, but has returned for the final day of October Prime Day.
The 55-inch Pro Series OLED is $699.99 at Amazon, which is 30 percent off its list price. The 65-inch model is $799.99, which is $400 off its list price, also at Amazon. Both models support a native 120Hz refresh rate, which is great for gaming, plus four HDMI 2.1 ports for 4K gaming at its full refresh rate, and support for Dolby Vision and HDR10 Plus. You’ll also get a backlit Roku remote control.
There have been a few TV deals during Prime Day, though these are the lowest prices on OLEDs by a wide margin. We haven’t tested this model, but it’s an affordable way to get unbeatable contrast for your next movie or game night.

Until the end of Amazon’s October sale later tonight, you can grab the 128GB Meta Quest 3S for just $297.49 (usually $349.99) at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy. While the lenses and displays aren’t quite as sharp as the Quest 3, the underlying chipset is the same, and this is a much more reasonable price for casual VR gaming and movies. In other words, it’s a big upgrade over the Quest 2. You’ll also get three months of Horizon Plus, which gives you access to a huge library of games.
Meta Quest 3S
The Meta Quest 3S is a battery-powered standalone VR headset that has the same chipset as the pricier Quest 3, but with the same lenses and screen resolution as the Quest 2. In addition to being able to play many games from the Meta Store, it can also be connected to a gaming PC to play VR games like Half-Life Alyx.Read our review.
If you buy the headset from Amazon, the deal also includes the “Cardboard Monkenaut” cosmetic set for Gorilla Tag VR, as well as 2,000 “Shiny Rocks” to spend on other in-game items. This popular multiplayer game is free to play on Quest headsets, and will have you chasing friends or matchmade players through the trees in a high-flying game of tag.
Day two of Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days event is here, and the sale will end at 3AM ET on Thursday, October 8th. While a few of the best deals from yesterday have already ended, many are still happening, with fresh discounts emerging to make the last day of the sale just as worthy of your attention.
Our team cross-referenced shopping sites with our own reviews and buying guides, and found around 100 deals on some of the Verge staff’s favorite gadgets. Prime subscribers will get access to the most deals, though many of them are price-matched at retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, and Target.

The iPhone Air is Apple’s thinnest iPhone yet at 5.6mm, featuring a 6.5-inch ProMotion display, a 48MP fusion camera, and an 18MP front camera with Center Stage support. But its single rear camera and “meh” battery life mean it’s not for everyone.

I’m choosing to believe that they’re cleaning chocolate and Mountain Dew. | Image: Bissell
For a while, I swore by Bissell’s Little Green carpet cleaner. I liked the sub-$100 price, the fact that it was small enough to fit on a closet shelf, and that it does a good job of cleaning up little messes. However, after you clean enough spots around the place, eventually the entire carpet needs a cleaning because the cleaned spots appear in stark contrast. It looks bad!
For a job that big, I upgraded (after doing a lot of research) to Bissell’s ProHeat 2X Revolution Pet Pro Plus. It’s a great upright machine with more power, though I wish I had waited, having paid $279.99 about a month ago. You can currently get one for $209.99 during October Prime Day at Amazon and Bissell (discount reflects at checkout).
Bissell ProHeat 2X Revolution Pet Pro Plus carpet cleaner
Bissell’s Little Green is handy, but doesn’t cut it for big jobs. If you have pets and a lot of carpet to clean, this is one of the most powerful upright carpet cleaners in its price range.
While the Little Green leaves the scrubbing up to you (it handles the sucking), the ProHeat 2X has plenty of deep-cleaning brushes, large reservoirs for dirty water and for cleaning fluid, plus an accessory port that lets you connect a brush-equipped hose for spot cleaning, essentially duplicating every feature I liked of the smaller model.
You’ll need to pony up for some cleaning solution after a handful of large-scale cleaning efforts, and it’s about $23 for a big bottle. I’ve found that you don’t need to use as much of the solution per gallon of water as Bissell notes on the bottle.
Unfortunately, one of my cats threw up at various places around our apartment last night (why can’t cats just do it all in one place?), so I’ll be using this carpet cleaner today. Wish me luck.
