It’s been one hell of a month so far for LEGO fans – and we’re not even halfway through August yet! We kicked off the month with the massive wave of 90 new building sets that are now available for purchase, plus we’ve also gotten the announcement of the two winners of the third 2023 Ideas Review round and the official trailer for the upcoming LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy Disney+ special.

These colorful sets will be dropping in October just in time for the premiere of the movie starring Cynthia Erivo and Arianna Grande. Head below for more details and photos.
We’re just about a month away from the premiere of the new LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy special, and earlier today the official trailer was released, giving us a clearer look at the upcoming reimagining.

AMD has officially launched its hotly anticipated Ryzen 9000 series desktop processors, and they’ve started to hit the shelves today. The timing here, I’d say, is great considering how many of Intel’s 13th and 14th gen processors are struggling with stability issues right now. The new Ryzen 9000 series includes four new desktop processors — the 16-core Ryzen 9 9950X, the 12-core Ryzen 9 9900X, the 8-core Ryzen 7 9700X, and lastly the 6-core Ryzen 5 9600X.

Now available for purchase with a launch deal, head below for a closer look at the new 240W 8-in-1 Anker Prime Charging Station.
We feature plenty of unique and useful chargers around here, but it’s not often we see them in the form of this new Anker Prime Charging Station with an onboard LCD display. The heads-up, almost dashboard-like unit delivers on all of the usual charging prowess you would expect from a device like this, but with some serious output wattage to support even your most power hungry of gear alongside a conversation-starting display that would even have this tech writer saying something like, “what do we have here?” if I happened upon it for the first time in your setup. Now available for purchase with a nice launch discount, head below for more details on the new Anker Prime Charging Station.

Now available for purchase for both 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Air models, head below for more deals and a closer look at the new Spigen iPad case.
It’s been a busy and exciting start to August for LEGO fans, with the LEGO Group dropping 90 new building sets at the start of the month, following on its own heels by then introducing the 2024 seasonal Halloween and Christmas sets that will be dropping in September.

While we have seen a number of other TV brands implement software options to mimic the look and feel of owning a Samsung wall art-meets-TV The Frame display, TCL is finally ready to deliver the real thing stateside.

The world (and life) moves fast and we humans can only do enough in our lives to keep up with it as best we can. One growing aspect that many are trying to find solutions to in the modern world is how to get to all our daily appointments – work, school, social events – in the most affordable and environmentally conscious way. While EVs are certainly the best current answer to the growing questions, they can often fall outside of reach for many due to costs. Solution: conversion kits, like the CLIP, which boasts the title of “the world’s first & only plug-and-play e-bike upgrade.” While many existing kits fall into the category of mountable hub motors, this device, on the other hand, uses inventive new ideas by building upon decades-old technology. That’s why I was absolutely giddy when I was first approached to test out the CLIP and visit the office here in NYC. You can continue reading below to get my hands-on impressions of this ingenious new device – and be sure to check out the short video of my ride too!

The Red Rescue Team edition of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon will go live for members in exactly one week from today.

We just spotted a brand new in-flight and car audio adapter for AirPods and other wireless headphones courtesy of the official UGREEN Amazon storefront. These handy little devices have, perhaps, been made popular by way of the Twelve South AirFly lineup, allowing users to hardwire into airplane entertainment systems and then beam the audio directly to their wireless earbuds and headphones. They can be, for many, an invaluable piece of tech for traveling, be it vacation a couple times a year or folks taking frequent business trips, and they also work on the road in the car. UGREEN’s latest take on the product category is now available for purchase with a 15% launch deal of sorts by way of an on-page coupon via Amazon. Head below for more details.
I have been a big fan of the Oakywood gear for years, as anyone who has read my reviews can attest. Its sustainably-sourced, handmade wooden accessories and desks are simply wonderful and I still use much of it to this day – I have its coasters and desktop trays in front of me right now, and its headphone stand on the shelf behind me. Today, the brand is debuting a slew of new releases all with the same environmentally-focused approach and gorgeous designs made from natural materials. This includes its latest Standing Desk PRO, Standing Desk TOUCH, some new under-desk organization gear, floating shelves, and more. Get a closer look down below.
SANDMARC, one of our favorite Apple gear and iPhoneography brands, has now introduced its new MacBook Messenger Pro bag. The brand has always specialized in gear for photographers and filmmakers, but it also happens to make some of the best accessories out there for iPhone users of all sorts. As I have said previously, its leather iPhone cases are a personal favorite of mine (I’m using one right now) and the 100mm Macro Lens I just reviewed is both simply brilliant and incredibly easy to use no matter who you are. But today it is turning its attention to the carrier space, landing alongside its latest iPhoneoprgaphy backpack, to debut its new MacBook Messenger Pro bag. Head below for a closer look and our exclusive deal price.

Head below to learn more.
We love the fun and playful elago AirPods cases, from ice cream and avocado designs to classic cassettes, Mac-inspired covers and, arguably, the most popular of them all, the Game Boy model. They clearly aren’t for everyone, but when it comes to folks that can appreciate this sort of whimsical approach to tech accessories, elago is one of the best. It has recently issued its AW5 Game Boy case for Samsung’s brand new Galaxy Buds 3 and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro earbuds and you can already score a nice little launch deal on it.
Elgato’s Stream Deck+ is one of the most functional controllers you can have on your desk. But if you ever thought the Stream Deck+ with its usual programmable keys, LCD display, and knobs isn’t enough for you, then Elgato has launched two new docks to improve its functionality further. There’s a new $119.99 XLR Dock which slots right into the rear of the Stream Deck+, turning it into an audio station. If you don’t have use for an XLR Dock, then there’s also a $59.99 USB Hub that adds a bunch of USB ports and an SD card reader.
