Moft’s new origami case adds a kickstand and grip to the iPhone Duo
Originally released in early 2025 as an accessory for the iPad, Moft has redesigned its Dynamic Folio as a case for the iPhone Duo that does more than just protect Apple’s folding phone. You can use it to prop the Duo up at several different angles for hands-free use, or reconfigure the Dynamic Folio’s origami-like screen cover and use it as a finger grip while you’re holding the phone.

Butterball’s first handheld is no fun at all.
Posted Nov 3, 2026 at 2:00 PM UTC Butterball’s first handheld is no fun at all. It may look like a frozen turkey-shaped Game Boy, but the Butterball Buddy is played more like a game of hot potato. You pass it around and when it stops making noise the person holding it is randomly assigned a Thanksgiving Day task like helping the chef or washing dishes. You can win one through Butterball’s website, and the rest of the year it functions as a kitchen timer.

Jackery made its portable power stations even smaller
Jackery announced a new portable power station that uses the safer and longer-lasting lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries the company first introduced in 2023. But what makes the new Explorer 100D stand out is that it’s Jackery’s smallest power station to date, measuring only 4.6 by 3.4 by 3.4 inches and weighing just 1.87 pounds. Its size and 96Wh (30,000mAh) of battery capacity means you can squeeze it into your carry-on and power multiple devices during a long flight.

This electric screwdriver uses a camera and AI to figure out what bit you need

It’s convenient, but also helpful, as choosing the wrong size could potentially leave you with a stripped screw and a much harder repair.

This $149 digital candle uses AI to accurately simulate a flickering flame
After engineering a flexible version of Tetris that could be wrapped around a magazine, Kevin Bates’ latest creation is a digital candle that uses a custom AI model to accurately simulate the appearance of a flickering flame across a grid of LEDs. It’s a far cry from the types of devices Bates is typically known for, including the Arduboy, but paying $79 for a credit card-sized handheld that can play hundreds of games is an easier sell than a $149 digital candle that doesn’t quite provide the...

With an OLED display and touchscreen capabilities, it’s no surprise that the new MacBook Pro Apple announced today is more expensive than the MBP announced earlier this year.

Posted Oct 28, 2026 at 2:13 PM UTC It’s dangerous to sleep in! Take this. I love the idea of waking up to a The Legend of Zelda themed alarm clock, but I’m less in love with the idea of silencing an alarm by handling a tiny pointed replica of the Master Sword when I’m still half asleep. The alarm clock, and a collection of other Zelda-themed items, will be available as part of an upcoming Banpresto merch lottery in Japan.

Amazon’s first digital picture frame lets you add voice notes to photos Original
Amazon’s screen-equipped smart speakers have long been able to display your family’s photos, but its new Alexa Photo Frame is purpose-built for that task. It’s designed to compete with other digital picture frames from companies like Aura, and Amazon’s incorporates a smart speaker with access to Alexa Plus’ capabilities through voice commands. However, unlike the Echo Show and Amazon’s other smart home hubs, the Alexa Photo Frame only ever displays your photos, and you’ll never be served an ad.
