Nintendo’s new Virtual Boy is more fun to look at than to play

The Switch peripheral is a well-built piece of nostalgia, but its games are just too stuck in the past.

Clean floors don’t have to cost a fortune.

While robot vacuums are getting fancier and more sophisticated (there’s now one that can climb stairs!), there are lots of great budget bots you can get for just a couple of hundred bucks that will keep your floors swept and mopped.

Check out my top picks for the best budget robot vacuum and mop in my updated buying guide.

Intel Panther Lake laptop CPU review: call it a comeback

The first chip of Intel’s 18A process is speedy, even on battery power. And it’s a solid option for 1080p gaming.

Belkin’s new Switch 2 charging case earns its $100 price.

Belkin’s $100 Charging Case Pro for the Switch 2 looks similar to the $70 version; it’s a thick zip-up case with a 10,000mAh battery, plus pockets for cartridges and an AirTag. But the battery here, cleverly redesigned as a folding stand that magnetically snaps into the case, makes it feel worth the higher cost.

If you buy something from a Verge link, Vox Media may earn a commission. See our ethics statement.

<em>The built-in battery/stand offers just as much versatility as the Switch 2’s kickstand.</em>
<em>A top-down view of how the Switch 2 looks in the Charging Case Pro. To tilt the console’s screen towards you, just fit a finger into the gap near the top to pull the stand’s bracket.</em>
The section that connects to the Switch 2 articulates, letting you adjust the viewing angle as you please. And, no, the outer USB-C charging port doesn’t support video-out. I tried!

It’s not the brightest OLED, and it isn’t perfect, but there’s no TV I’d rather watch.
