Sony temporarily suspends memory card sales due to shortages
Sony has announced that as of March 27th, 2026, the company is no longer accepting orders for nearly all the products in its CFexpress and SD memory card lines. The list of affected memory products includes CFexpress Type A, Type B, and SDXC/SDHC cards, although a few models of Type B and low-end SF-UZ series SD cards remain in production, according to PetaPixel, and you may still be able to find them on shelves until the existing supply runs out.
This includes orders from the company's authorized dealers as well as general consumers for "the foreseeable future," with the news coming out on the same day Sony said it will raise PS5 prices wo …
Insta360’s last-gen Link 2C is fantastic 4K webcam now that it’s 20 percent off
If you spend a lot of time presenting or chatting over video, you know how big a difference a decent webcam can make. Thankfully, if you’re looking to level up your setup at home or at work, the last-gen Insta360 Link 2C is currently available for $119.99 ($30 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and B&H Photo. That’s the lowest price we’ve seen so far this year and only $20 more than the webcam’s lowest price to date.
Insta360 Link 2C webcam
Where to Buy:
The Link 2C is the cheapest Link you can buy right now, and as such, it lacks the motorized gimbal found on its pricier counterparts. However, although it can’t physically follow you as you move around the room, it still uses AI-powered auto framing to digitally zoom and adjust, helping keep you — and anyone else you’re with — centered in the frame. Its half-inch sensor and 26-millimeter equivalent f1.8 lens also support up to 4K at 30fps or 1080p at 60fps, which is a noticeable step up from the 720p or 1080p resolution found on most built-in laptop webcams.
Like other models, the 2C comes with a magnetic mount that’s dead simple to attach to your monitor or laptop, and because it’s aimed at presentations, it supports a slew of useful gesture controls that let you zoom or activate features remotely without touching your computer. Overhead modes like DeskView, meanwhile, make it easy to display what’s on your desk, while an intuitive Smart Whiteboard mode allows you to keep your whiteboard squared off in frame so it’s always visible and properly aligned for those on the call. The webcam’s ability to filter out typing, traffic, and other background noise is just a plus.
The White House has an app now, and Trump wants you to report people to ICE on it
A new official White House app on Android and iOS takes the content from the White House website and copies it into app format. A tweet announcing the app on Friday morning appeared alongside a video joking about missile launches that also appears to feature an iPhone, rather than the elusive Trump Phone. There's no word about exclusive features or tie-ins with the phone or Trump Mobile services.
A handful of tabs in the app mostly replicate pages that exist on the Trump Administration's version of the White House website, including news, livestreams, social feeds, and a gallery. A prominent "Get in Touch" button on the social feeds tab inc …
Wait, the Trump phone might actually exist
Where's the Trump phone? We're going to keep talking about it every week. We've reached out, as usual, to ask about the Trump phone's whereabouts. This week I think I've found an FCC listing for the phone, showing it's received certification to launch in the US.
Last week I issued a reminder that Trump Mobile's T1 Phone does not exist, and may never exist, despite the fact that the company showed me a phone in an effort to convince me otherwise. Today instead I bring cause for optimism for the Trump phone believers: it appears to have been certified by the FCC.
FCC listings for a smartphone with the trade name "T1" show that it was tested …

Anker’s 160W Prime Charger can power three devices at once, and it’s $50 off
If you’re constantly switching between working at home and on the go, Anker’s latest 160W Prime Charger can lighten your load by replacing multiple chargers with a single device. It’s normally $149.99, but right now you can buy it at both Amazon and Anker’s online storefront (with coupon code WS24MNV8G7) for $99.99 thanks to Amazon’s ongoing Big Spring Sale, which drops it to its lowest price to date.
Anker Prime Charger (160W, 3 Ports, Smart Display)
Where to Buy:
Despite being roughly the size of an AirPods Pro 3 case, Anker’s newer charging gizmo is surprisingly powerful. It features a trio of USB-C ports, each capable of supplying up to 140W on its own, with a combined output of 160W across all three. Each port provides enough power to charge a 16-inch MacBook Pro to 50 percent in about 25 minutes, while simultaneously topping off two smaller devices, such as your phone or a pair of earbuds. In its default AI mode, the charger can even identify connected devices and dynamically adjust power across all three ports, helping to ensure everything charges efficiently.
Unlike most chargers, you can also switch the charging mode over Bluetooth via Anker’s app, letting you, for example, prioritize a power-hungry laptop so it charges faster or balance power more evenly across multiple devices. There’s a built-in display as well, allowing you to view real-time power distribution for each port and the current changing mode, so you can see exactly how power is being distributed at a glance.
Nuki’s one-touch retrofit smart lock got its first-ever discount
The Nuki Smart Lock is the best retrofit smart lock currently available for people who want a minimalist, feature-packed upgrade to their preexisting deadlock. It’s currently selling for $149 at Amazon — its cheapest price ever — during the Big Spring Sale. Its fast unlocking speed, Matter-over-Thread support, and broad smart home compatibility impressed my colleague Jennifer Pattison Tuohy, enough for her to consider it the most advanced model she’s tested in her review.
Nuki Smart Lock
The Nuki Smart Lock makes it easy to upgrade your home security system without replacing your entire lock. It installs in minutes and can even sense when you’re approaching, automatically unlocking the door for you. It supports every major smart home platform through Matter, and you can easily share digital access with friends or family — perfect for when you’re on vacation and need someone to water the plants.
Where to Buy:
The Nuki Smart Lock’s pricing history is a bit confusing. It originally launched for $159.99 when we reviewed it in July 2025. Months later, the company raised the cost to $199.99 while addressing some of our major criticisms, namely that a paid subscription ($5.90 per month) was no longer necessary to remotely unlock the Nuki over Wi-Fi, or to receive lock activity notifications. By purchasing one now, you’re getting the best-ever price with all of the features we wish were available at no cost from the beginning.
For what it’s worth, you never needed to pay for the subscription to get access to some of the Nuki Smart Lock’s best features. As mentioned earlier, it supports a Matter-over-Thread connection, which is free to use (assuming you have a Matter hub and a Thread border router) and yields huge battery savings compared to controlling the Nuki Smart Lock solely over Wi-Fi.

xTool, a company best known amongst makers for its laser-based cutting and engraving tools, has announced a new multi-function crafting machine called the WonderPress.

We handpicked the 24 best Big Spring Sale deals under $50
Despite the fact that spring isn’t often associated with big discounts, Amazon seems keen to turn every season into one filled with savings. Case in point? The retailer is currently hosting a spring sales event, which will run through 2:59AM ET on April 1st. Retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, and Newegg have also hopped aboard the wave of deals, matching many of the offers Amazon is making.
Although we’ve already published a post that collects every major deal, regardless of price, this one focuses solely on gadgets priced at $50 or less. As usual, many products meet the criteria, but price alone doesn’t mean they’ll make the cut. We’ve narrowed it down to many of our core categories, including smart speakers, power banks, subscriptions, smart home devices, fast-charging cables, and a few things you might not have realized could improve your life. If you don’t want to spend a ton during Amazon’s annual Big Spring Sale, here are a couple of dozen semi-affordable products that come with our stamp of approval.

Motorola’s Razr Ultra 2026 might be a hair thicker than last year’s version
While most flagship phones have been steadily getting slimmer over recent years, the upcoming 2026 version of the Motorola Razr Ultra could end up being a bit chunkier than its predecessor. Leaked measurements of the phone shared by XpertPick and OnLeaks on Thursday show that it will be slightly thicker than the 2025 version, about 0.1mm more when folded and 0.6mm more when unfolded.
The full dimensions of the Ultra 2026, according to the leaked specs, are 171.3 x 74.1 x 7.8mm when unfolded and 88.0 x 74.1 x 15.8mm when folded. With the camera bump, the Ultra 2026 could be up to 9.6mm unfolded or 17.63mm folded.
