Cameron Faulkner is a commerce editor at The Verge. Part of his role is to find and write about deals happening on products that he and The Verge team think are worth your money. He spends just as much time digging into new gaming hardware and accessories. Cameron has technically been hired by The Verge twice: first in 2018, then again in May 2025 after Vox Media sold Polygon (where he had been working as commerce editor since 2023).
Prime Big Deal Days is its annual October sale, and this year it’s running from October 6th at 3:01am ET through the 7th at the same time. New deals will arrive three times daily, and we’ll be covering the event closely, highlighting the best discounts on products that Verge readers care about.

The good news is that this dock still works post-update, but the ball is in third-party makers’ court to deliver a patch that enables VRR.
