We\u2019re still in a bit of a deals lull before the Presidents Day and V-Day sales begin, the bulk of which we anticipate kicking off the first week of February. However, for now, we\u2019re still seeing some solid discounts on a few newer gadgets and some old, <em>Verge<\/em>-approved favorites. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Anker-Adapter-Temperature-Compatible-Countries\/dp\/B0DHVNW1CN\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Anker\u2019s Nano Travel Adapter<\/a> has returned to its best price to date, for instance, as has <a href=\"https:\/\/electronics.woot.com\/offers\/samsung-qn43ls03fafxza-samsung-qn43ls03fafxza-frame-b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Samsung\u2019s last-gen Frame TV<\/a>.

The main drawback, aside from the lack of a voltage converter, is that the maximum power output is 20W (or 15W when sharing power across all four USB ports), meaning you\u2019ll need to bring <em>another<\/em> adapter if you want to charge a laptop or any other power-hungry device.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product-block\">\n<h3>Anker Nano Travel Adapter (5-in-1, 20W)<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"product-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/03\/anker_travel1.webp?w=300\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<h3>Where to Buy:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Anker-Adapter-Temperature-Compatible-Countries\/dp\/B0DHVNW1CN\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <strike>$25.99<\/strike> $19.99 at <strong>Amazon (black)<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Anker-Adapter-Temperature-Compatible-Countries\/dp\/B0DHVNPN7J\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <strike>$25.99<\/strike> $19.99 at <strong>Amazon (white)<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.anker.com\/products\/a9215?variant=44790594044054\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <strike>$25.99<\/strike> $19.99 at <strong>Anker<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">It\u2019s been nearly eight months since the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2 \u2014 meaning, if you haven\u2019t already purchased a microSD Express card to level up your storage capacity of your console, you\u2019ll likely need to do so soon. Fortunately, <strong>Samsung\u2019s P9 microSD Express card<\/strong> is currently on sale at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Samsung-Express-microSDXC-Nintendo-Switch-AM\/dp\/B0FT99KCV8\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/1924975-REG\/samsung_mb_mk256t_am_256gb_p9_microsd_express.html\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">B&amp;H Photo<\/a> with 256GB of storage starting at $39.99 ($15 off), matching its second-best price to date.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">As you might expect, P9 is\u00a0built to handle the Switch 2\u2019s faster storage speeds, with sequential read speeds of up to 800 MB\/s, resulting in quicker load and launch times. The Switch 2 features 256GB of internal storage, meaning you\u2019re doubling your storage capacity with a 256GB card, or tripling it in the case of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Samsung-Express-microSDXC-Nintendo-Switch-AM\/dp\/B0FT995SPF\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Samsung\u2019s 512GB variant<\/a>. Most first-party Nintendo games aren\u2019t massive, mind you, but third-party titles like <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/games-review\/623660\/split-fiction-review-hazelight-studios-it-takes-two\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Split Fiction<\/a><\/em> (69GB) and <em>Madden NFL 26<\/em> (59GB) can quickly devour dozens of gigabytes.

The slim QLED display can cycle through a small selection of free art pieces when idle, all of which take on a more textured, canvas-like appearance thanks to an anti-glare matte coating that helps curb unwanted reflections. The Frame is plenty good enough for bingeing <em>Slow Horses<\/em> and <em>Stranger Things<\/em>, even if the refresh rate is capped at 60Hz, and you still get support for both HDR10 Plus and Dolby Atmos, along with access to all your favorite streaming apps.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product-block\">\n<h3>Samsung The Frame (2025)<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"product-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"132\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/01\/samsung43inchtheframe.avif?w=300\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<h3>Where to Buy:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/electronics.woot.com\/offers\/samsung-qn43ls03fafxza-samsung-qn43ls03fafxza-frame-b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <strike>$899.99<\/strike> $597.99 at <strong>Woot (43-inch)<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/electronics.woot.com\/offers\/samsung-qn43ls03fafxza-samsung-qn43ls03fafxza-frame-b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <strike>$1099.99<\/strike> $697.99 at <strong>Woot (50-inch)<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\"><span>DJI\u2019s drones might ha<\/span>ve been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/831241\/dji-ban-us-trump-fcc-customs-import-ndaa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">banned in the United States<\/a>, but you can still pick up some of the company\u2019s other gear stateside (at least for now).\u00a0Take <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2024\/11\/26\/24305428\/dji-mic-mini-osmo-audio-microphone-wireless\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DJI\u2019s Mic Mini<\/a><\/strong>, for instance, which\u00a0is currently on sale at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0FKL8JYGQ\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a>\u00a0with a single mic and two transmitters for $59.99 ($20 off), matching the record-low first set during this time last year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">If you want to capture audio that sounds more professional than your smartphone can deliver on the go, the Mic Mini is a commendable option. The compact, 10-gram wireless microphone plugs directly into your phone via USB-C, Lightning, or a standard 3.5mm audio cable, and it can be clipped to clothing or worn using a magnetic mount or lanyard. The receiver lasts up to 10.5 hours and includes an onboard dial, which lets you fine-tune gain settings and adjust your volume levels. The pair of included transmitters, meanwhile, can run for up to 11.5 hours on a single charge and capture audio from up to about 400 meters away, provided they\u2019re connected simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Just don\u2019t expect built-in backup recording or the option to connect a smaller lav mic, neither of which is available on the Mic Mini.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product-block\">\n<h3>DJI Mic Mini (with one mic and two transmitters)<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"product-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/chorus\/uploads\/chorus_asset\/file\/25755998\/dji_mic_mini3.jpg?w=300\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"The DJI Mic Mini system\u2019s new wireless receiver attached to a laptop\u2019s USB-C port.\" \/><\/figure>\n<h3>Where to Buy:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0FKL8JYGQ\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <strike>$79<\/strike> $59 at <strong>Amazon<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-none\">More ways to save this weekend<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Of all the games coming out this year, <em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/681325\/resident-evil-requiem-trailer-date\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Resident Evil Requiem<\/a><\/strong><\/em>\u00a0might be at the top of my list.
