Good Deal Marshall Major V deal
Best Buy

If you’ve been eyeing a pair of on-ear headphones that you can basically forget to charge, Best Buy just dropped the Marshall Major V to $89.99. That’s a $60 discount for a newer model that leans into Marshall’s classic, rugged styling and long-haul listening. The big hook here is simple: you’re getting a legit brand-name wireless set at a price that’s a lot easier to justify if you’ve been waiting for a real markdown.

What you’re getting

The Major V is built for everyday use: it’s foldable for tossing into a bag, and it supports wireless charging (or USB-C if you’d rather plug in). Battery life is the headline feature, with 100+ hours of wireless playtime, plus a battery preservation mode in the Marshall app to help keep the battery healthier long-term.

Feature-wise, you also get a customizable M-button that can default to Spotify Tap or be reassigned to EQ presets or your voice assistant. The built-in mic is designed to improve call clarity (including reducing wind noise), and you can go wired when you want since a 3.5mm removable audio cord is included. Connectivity is Bluetooth 5.3, and it’s positioned as Bluetooth LE Audio-ready for future compatibility improvements.

Why it’s worth it

At full price, the Major V is a style-and-battery splurge. At $89.99, it’s much easier to recommend if you care about two things: battery life and a simple, durable daily driver you can use for music, calls, and commuting without babying it. You’re also not paying extra for active noise cancelling here, so the value is strongest if you prefer the on-ear form factor and want long runtime over feature-stacking.

The bottom line

If you want on-ear headphones with massive battery life, wireless charging, and that Marshall look, this is a strong buy at $89.99. If you need active noise cancelling or you’re sensitive to on-ear pressure, you may be happier spending more on an over-ear ANC model instead.

Bloomberg reports that preorders open July 16, with shipping scheduled to begin in October. The ring can collect readings during the day and overnight, then display the results through an iOS or Android app.

HTC’s VIVE Eagle smart glasses could finally be heading to the US. Apparently, Amazon got the memo before HTC was ready to share it.

Notebookcheck spotted six versions available for preorder at $499, each carrying a September 1 release date. Amazon has since pulled the pages, so new orders are closed and anyone who already placed one is left wondering whether it still counts.

Don’t expect smartwatches and fitness bands with replaceable batteries anytime soon
Turns out even the EU thinks your smartwatch is too small for a battery swap.
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

The EU has a habit of pushing tech companies to adopt meaningful changes in their product. It's the reason your iPhone finally has a USB-C port, and it's also why companies now have to offer spare parts and repair support for electronics for several years after launch. So naturally, many of us assumed wearables were next in line for mandatory swappable batteries. Turns out, the EU just went the other way.

So what did the EU announce?
