Brandon Widder is a Portland-based journalist and a senior editor at The Verge, where he helps oversee deals, buying guides, and other commerce initiatives. Since he was a kid, he’s been obsessed with tech, having spent far too many hours playing Sega Genesis and downloading copious amounts of music on LimeWire. Formerly a senior editor at Digital Trends, he’s spent the past decade honing tutorials, buying guides, and other types of evergreen content. When he’s not sifting through the latest deals and tech news, he can typically be found in a heated exchange over Catan, zipping around on his ‘81 Honda Passport, or volunteering with his local search and rescue outfit. Like many, he also has an unhealthy obsession with Star Wars. Go figure.
The latest Fire TV Stick 4K — now known as the Fire TV Stick 4K Plus — is down to an all-time low of $16.09 ($34 off) at Woot when you use promo code FIRE30. We recommend the Max model in most instances, but Amazon’s midrange option still offers Wi-Fi 6 and broad HDR support for Dolby Vision, HDR10, and HDR10 Plus at a fraction of the cost.

Hori’s third-party USB-C camera for the Nintendo Switch 2 is somewhat lacking in the specs department — it only supports 480p resolution and an 85-degree viewing angle — but you’d be hard-pressed to find a cuter alternative for $29.99, its current sale price at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy.

The Foldable Wireless Charging Stand, which can deliver up to 25W of power to compatible devices, is down to $116.99 ($13 off) at Amazon when you clip the on-page coupon. It’s not quite as travel-friendly as other Qi2.2 options like Kuxiu’s X40 Turbo stand, but in my testing so far, I’ve found it to be better for desk use given its height and heft.
