Belkin has released two new power banks built with semi-solid-state battery technology it calls BoostSolid Cell, joining rivals like BMX, Kuxiu, and Zens in adopting the format. The lineup includes a $69.99 magnetic 5,000mAh Qi2 model with 15W wireless charging and a $89.99 10,000mAh unit with a display supporting up to 60W across multiple ports.
Belkin has unveiled its own line of item trackers called SureFind, compatible with both Apple's Find My and Google's Find Hub networks. Unlike AirTags or Google's Pixel Tag, these trackers come with built-in attachment mechanisms like key rings, cables, or card designs, eliminating the need for separate accessories.
Belkin's SoundForm Mini 2 wireless on-ear headphones, designed for children ages 3 and up, are currently discounted 25 percent using the code VERGE25OFF. The base model drops from $29.99 to $22.49, while the version with a zip-up carrying case falls from $39.99 to $29.99 after the code is applied.
A hands-on review of 2026 car phone mounts singles out the Andery aluminum-arm MagSafe mount for its strong suction cup, 22-magnet ring with airflow venting, and low-profile 360-degree rotating design that doesn't obstruct the driver's view. The Andobil vent/windshield/dash mount is named the top universal pick for its mechanical side-loading grip that fits larger phones without added bulk, priced around $27 after discount.
WIRED's laptop docking station roundup adds several alternative picks beyond its main recommendations, including the $200 Baseus Spacemate Air 12-in-1, the $300 Belkin Connect Pro Thunderbolt 4 Dock, and the $200 Satechi Thunderbolt 4 Slim Pro Hub. Each option targets a different need, from dual 4K display support on older MacBooks to a minimalist three-port Thunderbolt 4 setup for decluttered desks.
