Every once in a while, Verizon slashes the price on the Apple AirPods Pro and the company has done it again. You can now grab the popular noise-canceling true wireless earbuds for just $220. That’s a saving of $30 on the usual price. It’s one of the best AirPods deals out there right now, but we can’t guarantee how long stock will last.

Apple AirPods Pro are Apple’s best headphones yet. They offer effective active noise cancellation so you don’t need to be bothered by any unwanted noise going on around you. They also have a transparency mode which means that during those times when you do need to pay attention, you can switch over and hear what’s happening around you.

Alongside the noise cancellation features, the Apple AirPods Pro also have adaptive EQ so that the music is automatically tuned to the shape of your ears for a far superior listening experience than with other earphones. Keen to look good while you listen? The Apple AirPods Pro also look super stylish and slot into your ear just right, so you won’t have to worry about them slipping out, whether you’re on your daily commute or going for a run or workout session. There’s Siri support, too, so you can control what you’re listening to without having to touch a thing.

The downside? Battery life is a little lower than some wireless earphones, coming in at 4.5 hours of listening. However, the charging case bumps that up to 24 hours overall until you need a power source which should be good for most users and will certainly more than easily cover your commute. You can charge them wirelessly by placing them on a Qi-compatible charging pad which is sure convenient. And did we mention how cool they look and how well active noise cancellation works? These are great earphones, even with their slightly weaker battery life.

Right now, you can grab the latest Apple AirPods Pro for just $220 at Verizon. That’s a modest but useful saving of $30 and you’re sure to be happy with the results. As always, stock is limited though and we can’t guarantee how long this offer will last.

Nothing’s next budget earbuds are coming for boring AirPods clones
Nothing Ear (3a) may bring back some personality to budget earbuds
Nothing Ear (a) deal

Budget wireless earbuds are the most popular kind of wearable tech in the market. But just like smartphones, a lot of these hearables basically look quite similar to one another. Nothing has actively worked on avoiding that trap, and its next affordable earbuds are expected to keep the track going.

The company has just confirmed that Nothing Ear (3a) will launch on July 7 at 11:00 BST, sharing the stage with the upcoming Nothing Phone (4b). The teaser does not reveal the full spec sheet yet, but it does show the earbuds in four colors: White, Black, Yellow, and Pink. Nothing’s audio lineup has always leaned on transparent styling and playful color choices to stand out in a sea of AirPods clones.

Sony’s WH-1000XM6 headphones just became more tempting for gamers who hate gaming headsets
The new update adds Bluetooth LE Audio's Gaming Audio Profile, giving Sony's premium noise-canceling cans a lower-latency trick for compatible gaming devices.
Sony WH-1000XM6.

Sony's WH-1000XM6 gaming mode is rolling out through firmware version 3.1.5, adding support for Bluetooth LE Audio's Gaming Audio Profile, or GMAP. The same update also includes general performance improvements, so WH-1000XM6 owners have a real reason to open the Sony Sound Connect app.

It's a handy upgrade for headphones built more for commutes or office silence than late-night matches. Bluetooth lag can make games feel faintly wrong, especially when a footstep or button press lands a fraction too late.

Acer’s 1,000Hz gaming monitor is real, expensive, and stuck waiting on a launch date

Electronics, Screen, Computer Hardware

Acer’s 1,000Hz gaming monitor has moved from announcement to Amazon listing. The XV273U F5 is priced at $699.99, giving competitive players a real number to weigh before one of the fastest displays headed to North America actually ships.

Availability is still the problem. Amazon lists the monitor as temporarily out of stock, and Acer has previously pointed to a Q4 North America launch window instead of a firm release date.
