<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Roku recently launched its first-ever OLED TVs. The $999 starting price was already impressive for the 55-inch Pro Series model that has a 120Hz refresh rate OLED panel (with four HDMI 2.1 ports and support for Dolby Vision and HDR 10 Plus). The price is even lower right now at <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0GVW1M8JF">Amazon</a> when you enter the code <strong>ROKUOLED300</strong> at checkout. It knocks a clean $300 off, as the code indicates, making this the most affordable modern 55-inch OLED you can get right now.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you&#8217;re more of a 65-inch TV kind of person, you&#8217;re in luck, as there&#8217;s a code that knocks $400 <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0GVW1GGPN">off that model</a> to make it just $799 at checkout. Enter the code <strong>ROKUOLED400</strong> to bring the $1,299 65-inch Pro Series down to $799. We haven&#8217;t had a chance to test either model, but they seem respectable if you want great picture quality without breaking the bank.</p>
<div class="product-block"><h3>Roku Pro Series OLED (2026)</h3>
<figure class="product-image"><img width="300" height="300" src="https://platform.theverge.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/09/Roku-Pro-Series-2026-oled-product.png?w=300" class="attachment-medium size-medium" alt="" /></figure>
<h3>Where to Buy:</h3><ul><li><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0GVW1M8JF"> <strike>$999.99</strike> $699.99 at <strong>Amazon (55-inch, with code ROKUOLED300)</strong></a></li><li><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0GVW1GGPN"> <strike>$1199.99</strike> $799.99 at <strong>Amazon (65-inch, with code ROKUOLED400)</strong></a></li></ul></div>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Given that these are Roku TVs, the company&#8217;s software is built-in, negating the need to stick a streaming device into one of its HDMI ports, unless you prefer hardware from other brands. The Pro Series includes a backlit Roku remote, and it supports auto low latency mode, and has variable refresh rate (AMD FreeSync Premium) for gaming. There&#8217;s a pricier Pro Series LX coming in October starting at $1,299 that claims to be twice as bright as the Pro Series, with a reflection-reducing polarizer and 144Hz refresh rate.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Other deals to consider</h2>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>The <strong>Nothing Phone 4A Pro</strong> got its first big discount at Amazon. The <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Nothing-Unlocked-Smartphone-Triple-Lens-Dual-SIM/dp/B0GFWQ77ZM">base model</a> with 8GB of memory and 128GB of storage is $449 (usually $499), and the <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Nothing-Unlocked-Smartphone-Triple-Lens-Dual-SIM/dp/B0GFWBXG3B/?th=1">upgraded model</a> with 12GB of memory and 256GB of storage is $509 (usually $599). The Phone 4A Pro borrows the high-end version’s signature feature, its Glyph Matrix, which displays the time, battery life, or notification icons. My colleague Dominic Preston <a href="https://www.theverge.com/tech/896626/nothing-phone-4a-pro-review-design-specs-battery-camera">reviewed the 4A Pro</a>, and appreciated its fun and unique design, slim build, and excellent display.</li>



<li>Amazon has a variety of <strong>DJI Osmo Nano </strong>video camera bundles on sale. The <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FBFZM45S">most basic option for $349</a> includes the camera, which has 64GB of internal storage, the Vision Dock with a built-in screen, a magnetic ball joint mount, a protective case, USB-C cable, and two magnetic mounting options. This tiny video camera has earned a reputation for offering surprisingly rich video quality despite its tiny size and affordable price point.</li>



<li>You can grab an <strong>Ember Warming Mug</strong> for just $34.99 at <a href="https://home.woot.com/offers/ember-temperature-control-smart-cup-6-oz">Woot</a>, a significant discount from its list price of $129.99. This six ounce mug can keep your coffee or tea toasty for up to 90 minutes on a single charge, with an adjustable temperature range of 120 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit.</li>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">While it might not feel like it at first blush, this is a solid value for a gaming PC that’s ready to rock out of the box. The RTX 5070 in this machine is likely to run you upwards of $800 by itself at the moment (<a href="https://www.theverge.com/gpu-reviews/623441/nvidia-rtx-5070-review-test-benchmark">it launched in 2025 for $549</a>), and 32GB of fast memory can be $400 or more. For just a small premium, you get those components packed into a nice case with a panoramic glass panel and a 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD inside. The whole kit is tested, with a one year warranty for parts and labor. It also includes a keyboard and mouse, so you can start gaming right away once it arrives.</p>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>If you need a gaming monitor with spectacular colors and clarity to go with your new gaming PC, <a href="https://www.newegg.com/asrock-pgo27qsa-w-27-qhd-240hz-qd-oled-white/p/N82E16824028027">Newegg</a> has the <strong>ASRock PGO27QSA-W</strong> discounted to $299.33, a significant discount from its original price of $476. This 27-inch screen supports 1440p resolution, a 240Hz refresh rate with FreeSync Premium for variable refresh rate, and an OLED panel for deep black levels.</li>



<li>A two pack of <strong>Anker Zolo MagSafe wireless chargers</strong> is discounted to $25.99 at <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DRCSZ618">Amazon</a>, where it would normally cost $39.99. Each charger is Qi2 certified, with support for up to 15W of charging power, and includes a five-foot cable for convenient positioning on your desk or nightstand. You’ll have to use your own wall charger, though.</li>



<li>The Nintendo Customer Appreciation sale is live until September 26th at 8:59 PM PT, and is a great time to pick up an extra set of controllers, <a href="https://www.theverge.com/gadgets/994892/nintendo-customer-appreciation-tariff-refund-deal-sale">among other game and accessory deals</a>. The <strong>Switch Pro Controller</strong> is only $56 (usually around $70) at both <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01NAWKYZ0">Amazon</a> and <a href="https://www.bestbuy.com/product/pro-wireless-controller-for-nintendo-switch-black/J7GSL48K8S">Best Buy</a>, and a duo of <strong>Joy-Con </strong>are only $62.99 at <a href="https://www.bestbuy.com/product/nintendo-joy-con-l-r-wireless-controllers-pastel-purple-pastel-green/J7GSL576Z6">Best Buy</a>, although only the pastel purple and green combo are currently in stock. The controllers are compatible with both the original Switch and Switch 2, although owners of the newer console will need a <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Compatible-FASTSNAIL-Charging-Dual-Direction-Controller/dp/B0FD6PSLX3">separate charger</a>, and they won’t wake the system from sleep.</li>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Nintendo’s <a href="https://www.theverge.com/gadgets/994892/nintendo-customer-appreciation-tariff-refund-deal-sale">“Customer Appreciation” sale</a> continues through September 26th. It includes discounts on Switch games and accessories, and I thought I’d call out one of my favorite games that’s cheaper than ever. <em><a href="https://www.theverge.com/2023/2/9/23592822/metroid-prime-remastered-nintendo-switch-best-way-classic"><strong>Metroid Prime Remastered</strong></a></em> is down to $27.99 in digital format for the Switch and Switch 2, and it’s among the best remasters I’ve played because it makes smart improvements to an already-great game. You can get it for this price at <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BVS1Z5TL">Amazon</a>, <a href="https://www.bestbuy.com/product/metroid-prime-remastered-nintendo-switch-oled-model-nintendo-switch-nintendo-switch-lite-digital/JCQ6HTGK8P/sku/6535578">Best Buy</a>, and <a href="https://www.walmart.com/ip/Metroid-Prime-Remastered-Nintendo-Switch-Digital/2453653926">Walmart</a>. The physical version costs around $42 at those retailers.</p>
<div class="product-block"><h3>Metroid Prime Remastered</h3>
<figure class="product-image"><img width="300" height="169" src="https://platform.theverge.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/chorus/uploads/chorus_asset/file/24420921/Switch_MetroidPrimeRemastered_Screen_08.jpg?w=300" class="attachment-medium size-medium" alt="A screenshot of Samus Aran in Metroid Prime Remastered" /></figure>
<h3>Where to Buy:</h3><ul><li><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BVS1Z5TL?th=1"> <strike>$39.99</strike> $27.99 at <strong>Amazon (digital)</strong></a></li><li><a href="https://www.walmart.com/ip/Metroid-Prime-Remastered-Nintendo-Switch-Digital/2453653926"> <strike>$39.99</strike> $27.99 at <strong>Walmart (digital)</strong></a></li><li><a href="https://www.bestbuy.com/product/metroid-prime-remastered-nintendo-switch-oled-model-nintendo-switch-nintendo-switch-lite-digital/JCQ6HTGK8P/sku/6535578"> <strike>$39.99</strike> $27.99 at <strong>Best Buy (digital)</strong></a></li></ul></div>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Most <em>Metroid </em>fans have already played this one — maybe multiple times, even — but if you’ve somehow missed out, here’s your sign to pick it up. It applies a modern coat of updated textures and improved lighting to the 2002 GameCube title, and it runs at a smooth frame rate. Notably, the control scheme doesn’t require motion controls like the Wii re-release did.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">For about the same price as this digital title, true fans can also buy the <em>Metroid Prime 1-3: A Visual Retrospective</em> hardcover book. Normally $49.99, it’s $28.50 at <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Metroid-Prime-1-3-Retrospective-Official/dp/1913330273">Amazon</a> and <a href="https://www.walmart.com/ip/Metroid-Prime-1-3-A-Visual-Retrospective-The-Official-Art-and-Making-of-Metroid-Prime-1-3-Hardcover-9781913330279/14437707119">Walmart</a> for the 208-page art book covering the original trilogy, peppered with some fantastic quotes from people who worked on the games. It’s an unusually candid look into Nintendo’s first-person shooter series and the company’s game design philosophy. It’d make for a great holiday gift. <a href="https://www.theverge.com/games/803399/metroid-prime-visual-retrospective-art-book-review">Read our coverage of the book</a>.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Other great Verge-approved deals</h2>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><em><strong>Flow</strong> </em>is one of the best animated movies of the past few years, and now it’s cheaper than ever to own a digital copy. Unless you have HBO Max to watch it on demand, snag the 4K version from <a href="https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/flow/umc.cmc.22galt2spi1jlic15bdjvf1mz">Apple TV</a> or <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DNQCWQPK">Amazon</a> for $4.99. The voiceless tale follows a cat who survives a huge flood that leaves civilizations in ruin. The perilous (yet adorable) adventure sees the cat relying on other animals to survive. It’s just a fantastic way to spend 90 minutes.</li>



<li>It’s never a bad time to recommend a cable as useful as <strong>Anker’s 2-in-1 USB-C cable</strong>. The two-headed cable can charge two devices from a single charging port (up to 140W for a single device), and the six-foot version is down to $15.99 at <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DGLJWBC6">Amazon</a>. This is only $4 off, and it’s far from the first time we’ve seen this deal. But it’s never been cheaper, and it’s practical cable that will likely improve your charging setup. My wife and I use it to cycle between charging our MacBooks and an iPad, occasionally throwing a phone or Kindle into the mix.</li>



<li>Best Buy is trolling us a bit with today’s price on the <strong>white Magic Keyboard with Touch ID</strong>. We <a href="https://www.theverge.com/gadgets/998824/apple-magic-keyboard-touch-interstellar-4k-blu-ray-deal-sale">focused yesterday</a> on the $30 discount for the black version of the wireless keyboard that brought it down to $169.99. That deal is gone, but the model with white key caps is down to $149.99 at <a href="https://www.bestbuy.com/product/magic-keyboard-with-touch-id-and-numeric-keypad-for-mac-models-with-apple-silicon-usb-c-white-keys/JJGCQ8C5FX">Best Buy</a>. It’s compatible with all Macs that have Apple silicon, dating back to the M1 models (so long as you have macOS 15.1 or later). It recharges via USB-C, and has a full numerical pad, plus other keys for easier navigation on your computer.</li>

If you’re curious about the new machines, my colleague Antonio G. Di Benedetto got to spend some time with the laptops and <a href="https://www.theverge.com/tech/997972/googlebook-laptop-chromeos-android-history">shared his thoughts</a>.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There are a number of qualifying Googlebooks available at the retailer, including options from Acer, Lenovo, Asus, HP, and Dell. There’s a <a href="https://www.bestbuy.com/site/laptop-computers/googlebooks/pcmcat1786568810959.c?id=pcmcat1786568810959">dedicated category page</a> for the new genre of laptop in case you want to peruse the lineup. The least expensive model is the <a href="https://www.bestbuy.com/product/acer-googlebook-14-laptop-14-3k-oled-120hz-touch-intel-core-ultra-5-series-3-2026-16gb-memory-512gb-storage-elemental-blue/JJ8V8HLZP2/sku/6690085">Acer Googlebook 14</a>, which starts at $899 and features an Intel Core 5 Ultra, 16GB of LPDDR5X memory, and 512GB of storage. We also <a href="https://www.theverge.com/gadgets/997659/googlebooks-breakdown-acer-asus-hp-lenovo-dell">compared the specifications and features</a> for each machine, in case you’re having trouble deciding.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Until the end of the day on September 22nd, 2026, <a href="https://www.bestbuy.com/product/magic-keyboard-with-touch-id-and-numeric-keypad-for-mac-models-with-apple-silicon-usb-c-black-keys/JJGCQ8CV73">Best Buy</a> and <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Keyboard-Numeric-Keypad-Apple-Silicon/dp/B0DL6L189W">Amazon</a> have the black <strong>Apple Magic Keyboard</strong> on sale for $169.99, a $30 discount from the usual price. This is the souped-up version of Apple’s full-size, wireless keyboard, with a Touch ID button, numerical pad, arrow keys, plus additional function keys. The Touch ID functionality is compatible with macOS computers running version 15.1 or newer on Apple-made silicon.</p>
<div class="product-block"><h3>Apple Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and Numeric Keypad</h3>
<figure class="product-image"><img loading="lazy" width="300" height="300" src="https://platform.theverge.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/09/Apple-Magic-Keyboard-Touch-ID-Num-Pad-product.png?w=300" class="attachment-medium size-medium" alt="" /></figure>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The keyboard includes a woven USB-C cable that handles both charging and data, or you can use Bluetooth for a wireless connection. Black-colored Apple accessories tend to carry a higher price premium than their equivalent white models, and go on sale less frequently. Best Buy’s price is only good through 10PM PT on September 22nd, 2026, and the Amazon page is currently shipping one or two days out.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Other deals to consider</h2>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>The refurbished<strong> 160W Anker Prime Charger</strong> is on sale for $75 on <a href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/800625429020">eBay via the Anker Outlet Store</a>, $41 lower than the current Prime-exclusive price at Amazon, and half off the list price for a new model. This compact charger sports three USB-C ports, with a maximum output of 140W from a single port. It even has a little display for power monitoring or changing charging modes with the push of a button.</li>



<li>For a limited time, you can grab a <strong>512GB microSD Express card</strong> for $99.99 or less. The Samsung P9 is $99.99 at <a href="https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1924976-REG/samsung_mb_mk512t_am_512gb_p9_microsd_express.html">B&amp;H Photo</a> and <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Express-microSDXC-Nintendo-Switch-AM/dp/B0FT995SPF">Amazon</a> (discounted automatically applied at checkout), and the SanDisk GamePlay is $98 at <a href="https://www.walmart.com/ip/SanDisk-512GB-GamePLAY-microSD-Express-Card/16003402425">Walmart</a>. The Switch 2 is the only mainstream device that requires a microSD Express for add-ons torage, and first-party Nintendo games run between 10 and 30 GB (the upcoming <em>Ocarina of time</em> remake is 27GB, for example) so a 512GB card can store upwards of 15 games.</li>



<li>The 4K Blu-ray version of <em>Interstellar </em>is discounted to $14.96 at <a href="https://www.amazon.com/InterStellar-4K-UltraHD-Blu-ray-Interstellar/dp/B0767FCYDW/">Amazon</a>. That’s the lowest we’ve seen the price since Prime Day in June, and a five dollar break from the usual price. This classic Christopher Nolan film is an excellent addition to any film buff’s home collection, and benefits massively from the sharper visuals provided by the 4K Blu-ray. <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2014/10/27/7077877/interstellar-film-review">Read our review</a>.</li>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The controller included is a great option for Xbox or for PC. It supports Bluetooth connectivity, and it’s also a solid wireless gamepad to connect to a Steam Deck or any other gaming handheld that can be docked to a TV. While it lacks Hall effect sticks, it’s the best midrange controller from Microsoft yet, with a premium-feeling, comfortable design, a headphone jack, and good battery life (it supports swappable AA batteries).</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Other great Verge-approved deals</h2>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>The <strong>Aurzen tri-fold mini projector</strong> is an awesome gadget. We said as much <a href="https://www.theverge.com/reviews/621360/aurzen-zip-projector-review-tri-fold-specs-price">in our review</a>, wherein <em>Verge </em>deputy editor Thomas Ricker used it in all sorts of scenarios to put it to the test. Normally $299, the USB-C chargeable projector is $249.99 at <a href="https://www.bestbuy.com/product/aurzen-tri-fold-truly-mini-projector-zero-lag-focus-one-click-screen-mirroring-5000mah-battery-dlp-tech-gold/J3R8FCG92L">Best Buy</a> for the rest of the day. Despite its small size, it’s surprisingly bright, and it easily connect to Android or iPhone so you can get to mirroring your games and other locally-stored content (or stuff that’s streamed via Plex or a similar service). Though, if it’s DRM-protected shows or movies you want to beam on your wall or makeshift surface, you’ll unfortunately need <a href="https://aurzen.com/products/aurzen-castplay-pro-usb-c-wireless-dongle">Aurzen’s pricey CastPlay Pro</a> dongle that’s currently $105.</li>



<li>I don’t want to jinx our good fortune, but I’ve been finding some appealing laptop deals recently. The latest is <strong>Acer’s Chromebook Plus Spin 514</strong>, which is one of the <a href="https://www.theverge.com/tech/791532/acer-chromebook-plus-spin-514-2in1-laptop-review">best, most well-rounded models</a> available. Sure, it’s no <a href="https://www.theverge.com/tech/997972/googlebook-laptop-chromeos-android-history">high-end Googlebook</a>, but it’s a pretty solid laptop for $499 at <a href="https://www.bestbuy.com/product/acer-chromebook-plus-spin-514-14-wuxga-touch-laptop-mediatek-kompanio-ultra-12gb-ram-256gb-storage-wi-fi-7-google-ai-platinum-silver/JJ8V8HG3JS">Best Buy</a> (originally $749, the discount expires later today). It has a 14-inch 1200p touchscreen with a foldable 2-in-1 design, and its specs include the MediaTek Kompanio Ultra processor, 12GB RAM, 256GB of SSD storage, Wi-Fi 7 support. Given its Chromebook Plus designation, it includes one year of free access to Google AI Pro, which grants 5TB of cloud storage, YouTube Premium Lite, Google Home Premium, and <a href="https://gemini.google/subscriptions/">other perks</a>.</li>



<li>The price keeps falling at <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FYFDD1WW">Amazon</a> on <strong>Ugreen’s Nexode Pro multi-port wall charger</strong>. Originally $89.99, it has almost never sold for that amount. In fact, it dropped to $49.99 briefly following its debut, and has only dropped to $59.99 — its current price — once before. This is the kind of gadget that anyone who owns multiple USB-C chargeable tech products should have. It tops out at 140W speed when you use just one of its USB-C ports, and it can divvy up 160W of total power across five gadgets that are plugged in at once.</li>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The <strong>Hyte X50</strong> is a PC case that really stands out from the typical black box design, and it’s $50 off at the <a href="https://hyte.com/store/x50/cs-hyte-x50g-ww">company’s site</a> until September 21st, 2026, bringing the price down to $99.99. This attractive case supports motherboards from ITX all the way up to the E-ATX form factors, and GPUs that are up to 430mm long, which should cover even the biggest options available. The standout feature is a massive curved glass panel that spans the left face and top of the case, giving it a unique, eye-catching look. It’s easy to build in, supports a wide variety of components and cooling setups, and has a thoughtful, refined design.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Unlike a lot of cases with big glass panels, the X50 has excellent airflow, with louvered fins along the back for ventilation, a porous mesh front, and plenty of spots for radiators and fans. It comes in a variety of bold colors, too, like the lavender-adjacent “taro milk” and trendy “matcha,” as well as more classic black and white options. If you’d rather opt for something a little more subtle, the <strong>X50 Air</strong> swaps the glass panel for curved mesh, and is only $79.99 (usually $119.99) from <a href="https://hyte.com/store/x50/cs-hyte-x50a-ww">Hyte</a>.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Yoga Slim 7X seems like a great alternative to spending more (and getting less) with Microsoft’s latest Surface Laptop.

Its Arm-based processor can run most Windows apps very well, and yields superior battery life compared to laptops with x86 processors.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The laptop includes three USB-C ports, and a hardware switch for disabling the webcam. It supports Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.3. It seems like a great machine for work, watching movies, or playing some games that aren’t too graphically intensive.</p>

<li>The <strong>PlayStation 5 version of </strong><em><strong>Starfield </strong></em>hasn’t been available for as long as the Xbox and PC version, so it’s been a little slower to see major discounts.

<li>The <strong>Baseus VD1 Pro dash cam</strong> recently dropped in price by $20, selling for $99.99 at <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FJ28QX2C">Amazon</a>. There are <em>so</em> many dash cams out there, but this one’s unique in a few ways. It includes both a 4K front- and 1080p rear-facing camera to record multiple angles, and the front camera includes a battery that can be recharged via its built-in solar panel to keep it going even when your car is off. It captures continuous footage while your car is giving it power, though it can detect incidents for up to 14 days with its built-in battery while your car is parked. A long USB-C cable connects the two cameras, so you’ll need to get clever with how you hide it in your trim. <a href="https://www.theverge.com/news/776613/baseus-primetrip-vd1-pro-dashcam-solar-power-two-week-standby">Read more about the camera’s features here</a>.</li>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Most hardware prices have soared in 2026, and that includes <a href="https://www.theverge.com/tech/952162/apple-price-increase-ram-shortage">a variety of Apple laptops, tablets, and smart devices</a>. Thankfully, you can offset some of the increased costs on an <strong>Apple TV 4K</strong> by buying one refurbished through the company. The 64GB model is selling for $169, $30 lower than the new retail price. The upgraded model, with 128GB of storage and an Ethernet port, is also discounted to $209 at <a href="https://www.apple.com/shop/product/fn893ll/a/refurbished-apple-tv-4k-128gb-3rd-generation-wi-fi-ethernet">Apple</a>, a $40 discount from the full price. Apple refurbished products are often close to like-new condition, and are covered by the same one year warranty as new products.</p>
<div class="product-block"><h3>Apple TV 4K (third-gen)</h3>
<div class="product-description">If you subscribe to Apple Arcade, an Apple TV 4K can effectively double as both a mini gaming console and one of the best streaming devices you can buy. With it, you can connect a Bluetooth controller like the PlayStation 5’s DualSense, thus allowing games that were initially developed for PC / consoles to be played on the big screen for which they were designed.</div>
<figure class="product-image"><img loading="lazy" width="300" height="300" src="https://platform.theverge.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/12/GHGG-2025-Apple-TV-4K.jpg?w=300" class="attachment-medium size-medium" alt="" /></figure>
<h3>Where to Buy:</h3><ul><li><a href="https://www.apple.com/shop/product/fn873ll/a/refurbished-apple-tv-4k-64gb-3rd-generation-wi-fi"> <strike>$199</strike> $169 at <strong>Apple (refurbished)</strong></a></li></ul></div>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We reviewed the third-generation Apple TV 4K when it launched back in 2022, and were impressed by the performance and seamless integration with some streaming services, although others are still in their own dedicated apps. The device supports Dolby Vision and HDR10 Plus for excellent contrast (surpassing the quality you’ll get from a cheaper streamer, or even something like a PS5), and Siri for quickly finding your favorite shows and movies. Both the 64GB and 128GB models can work as a HomeKit hub for your other smart devices, but only the Ethernet model supports Thread.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Metroid series is going back to its 2D roots again with <em>Metroid Ravenous</em> for the Nintendo Switch 2, the first side-scrolling game in the series since 2021’s <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2021/10/6/22710468/metroid-dread-review-nintendo-switch"><em>Metroid Dread</em></a> for the Nintendo Switch. If you’re already excited<strong> </strong>enough to consider preordering, you can save $10 on the physical version of the game when you buy it from Walmart. It’s $59.88 instead of $69.99, about the same as buying it digitally. The game launches on January 28th, 2027, but it’s not clear how long the preorder discount will last. If it’s anything like <a href="https://www.theverge.com/gadgets/992221/ocarina-of-time-remaster-corsair-scimitar-deal-sale">other Walmart preorders</a>, it may occasionally disappear.</p>
<div class="product-block"><h3>Metroid Ravenous</h3>
<figure class="product-image"><img loading="lazy" width="300" height="300" src="https://platform.theverge.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/09/Metroid-Ravenous-product.png?w=300" class="attachment-medium size-medium" alt="" /></figure>
<h3>Where to Buy:</h3><ul><li><a href="https://www.walmart.com/ip/Metroid-Ravenous-Nintendo-Switch-2/20973300457"> <strike>$69.99</strike> $59.88 at <strong>Walmart</strong></a></li></ul></div>
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Nintendo first showed off the side-scrolling adventure game at its <a href="https://www.theverge.com/games/991547/nintendo-direct-september-2026-news-trailers-announcements">September 2026 Direct</a>, with a frantic trailer cutting between cinematic sequences, Samus dashing and rolling across a variety of environments, and engaging a number of enemies and bosses in battle. Samus absorbs some powerful abilities at the conclusion of <em>Dread</em>, and <em>Ravenous </em>seem to be all about plowing through anyone stopping her from escaping the planet. Other details of the story, including unique new mechanics, are being kept under wraps for the time being.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you haven’t played <em>Metroid Dread</em>, I recommend it, especially at its $41.99 discounted price at <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Metroid-Dread-Pre-Purchase-Standard-Nintendo/dp/B097Q2VRTX">Amazon</a>. It’s part of <a href="https://www.theverge.com/gadgets/994892/nintendo-customer-appreciation-tariff-refund-deal-sale">Nintendo’s “Customer Appreciation” sale</a> happening through September 26th, and several other games and accessories are cheaper, too.</p>
