Beyerdynamic has launched the Aventho Y, a new pair of wireless over-ear headphones with a 90-hour battery, fast charging, support for switching between two devices at once, and a battery and ear pads you can actually replace yourself. The headphones were unveiled ahead of IFA Berlin and go on sale on September 3 in four color options.

Battery, Bluetooth, and ANC that actually hold up

The Aventho Y uses Multipoint Bluetooth 6.0, so you can hop between your laptop and phone without issues. Battery life goes up to 90 hours with ANC turned off, and if you’re in a rush, five minutes on the charger buys you another six hours of playback.

Beyerdynamic is also paying a lot of attention to user comfort. The ear pads and headband offer ample cushion, making them perfect for long listening sessions. Beyerdynamic is also releasing an upgrade kit with a matching USB-C dongle and a color-coordinated boom mic, turning the Aventho Y into a full headset setup.

On the audio side, a 45mm dynamic driver handles the heavy lifting, aiming to capture the finer details in your music. The over-ear design blocks outside noise on its own, and switching on ANC cuts down distractions even further.

Parts you can actually replace

Another big selling point for Aventho Y headphones is that they are made to last. Beyerdynamic built the headphones with long-term wear in mind, so a worn-out part doesn’t mean you need to replace the whole headset. You can individually swap out the pieces that see the most use, including the battery, magnetic ear pads, aluminum sliders, and stainless steel hinges.

Where can you try them first?

Beyerdynamic is showing off the Aventho Y today at the ShowStoppers media event before IFA kicks off, with a public demo at the Hama booth once the show opens on September 4. There’s also a dance event on September 6 at Flying Steps’ Backyard Battles, where attendees can test the headphones and enter a raffle to win a pair.

Small text, crowded windows, and a tangle of laptop cables are different problems, so each calls for a different monitor. These five Amazon deals ahead of October Prime Day start at $94.99 and cover everything from a basic second screen to a Thunderbolt ultrawide. Two Samsung offers require Prime.

I found 8 early Prime Day camera and creator gear deals I’d actually buy
Cameras, mics and webcams are already getting cheaper before Prime Day
Prime Day Camera Deals

We are nearing Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days, which officially run October 6 and 7. But there is no need to wait until the sale begins to start looking. Early offers are already live, and camera gear is one category where I found enough worthwhile discounts to put together a proper creator-focused list.

I’ve deliberately gone wider than interchangeable-lens cameras here. There are pocket and action cameras, a 360 camera, an instant camera, two wireless microphone systems, and a pair of webcams covering very different budgets. Prices were checked on October 2, and as always with Amazon, they can move quickly.

Amazon's color Kindle is getting its biggest makeover since the Colorsoft first arrived, and all of it comes at a higher cost. The new Kindle Colorsoft starts at $289.99 with 16GB of storage, while the upgraded Colorsoft Signature Edition costs $319.99 with 32GB. Both are going up for preorder on a rolling basis across the US and several other markets. Compared to the previous generation, this marks a $40 jump. Though there's more than just a new paint job accompanying the price hike.
