Nintendo’s Game Boy Advance is one of the most recognizable handhelds ever made, and a custom keyboard designer just built a working tribute to it.

That

You have probably skipped a phone simply because it never officially launched in the US, treating that absence as a verdict on quality. If a company didn’t bother selling it here, the reasoning goes, it couldn’t have been worth owning. Price: $279.50 | AED1,635.00 Where to Buy: Amazon | Amazon UAE That assumption falls apart the

Retro handhelds have a quiet spending problem. The devices with the deepest, most legitimate libraries tend to be the ones that cost the most, and the cheap ones usually lean on emulation nobody wants to explain out loud. Officially licensed and genuinely affordable rarely land in the same sentence. Price: $69.99 Where to Buy: Hyper

Most portable Bluetooth speakers quietly gave up on real stereo years ago. They drop one driver into a can, lean on processing to fake the width, and call it done. Andover Audio, a Boston hi-fi brand better known for turntable systems, just made the opposite bet with the FreePlay, its first portable speaker. It’s a

Cold press juicers have a dirty secret most of them are annoying to use. The feed chute is too narrow for anything bigger than a finger, the motor sounds like a blender fighting a bag of ice, and the cleaning process takes long enough that the machine ends up in a cabinet by week two.

A square G-SHOCK with a fabric strap shouldn’t cause this much debate. The Casio G-SHOCK DW-5600MNC-8A2JF does, because it takes the familiar DW-5600 shape and swaps the usual resin band for a stretchy cloth loop with a FIDLOCK magnetic mechanical clasp. That makes it more than another color drop. It’s a stock story for buyers

Most smart displays end up as glorified clocks: you buy one, use it for timers and the weather, and forget it can do anything else. We’re always on the lookout for good buys, and we think this one’s still worth a look. It’s rarely the buyer’s fault when that happens, it’s the screen: too small

There’s a certain kind of folding knife that doesn’t really behave like a folder, the kind with enough heft and build that people mentally file it next to a fixed blade. The Benchmade Adamas is that knife, and the current 275FE-04 is the version worth talking about this week. It is the folder people reach
