Sharge’s cute, Macintosh-inspired 67W charger is nearly half off right now

There are many 67W chargers out there, but few are as adorable as Sharge’s travel-friendly Retro 67.

Earlier this week, we published a guide rounding up an assortment of last-minute Father’s Day gifts for those who celebrate. However, if you need a Hail Mary and your dad is the nostalgic type with a penchant for all things Apple, the Sharge Retro 67 is currently on sale for an all-time low of $39 ($30 off) at Amazon and direct from Sharge.

In February, my colleague Sean Hollister...

Nintendo’s first US commercial might be this 1980 ad

Got a broken arm? Just play Toss-Up! | Screenshot: YouTube

Nintendo is a gaming juggernaut today, but it wasn’t really on anyone’s radar in the United States in 1980. And what was possibly the first US commercial for hardware produced by the company — a handheld called Toss-Up, from its “Game & Watch” series — certainly didn’t help, as a newly-restored copy shows. That’s because there’s no mention of Nintendo at all, or even Game & Watch.

The Mavericks’ Game 4 showed a blueprint that could allow them to make history against the Celtics

Peter Casey-USA TODAY Sports

Dallas kept the door from slamming shut in Game 4. Here’s how they can keep it cracked open.

After the Dallas Mavericks' deflating loss in Game 3 to the Boston Celtics on Wednesday, the normal cliches and platitudes were shared by players and coaches alike. The theme was universal: the series isn’t over, take it one game at a time.

It was nothing earth-shattering, a semi-cliche sentiment and mentality shared by most professional athletes facing such a...

Folding an iPad in half is a very bad idea if you want to keep using your iPad. But hear me out: it should fold in half. Why? Because it would make an absolute banger of a folding phone.

First of all, what’s even going on here anyway? The Pro iPhones have more processing power than they know what to do with. The iPad Pro is an incredible computer that nobody can use as a computer. The iPad Mini...

Apple announced RCS with a whimper when it should have been a bang

Illustration by Cath Virginia / The Verge

Apple will finally adopt RCS in iOS 18, effectively ending a yearslong fight for feature parity between iMessage and Android. But the announcement wasn’t a celebration — you could’ve blinked and missed it. Instead of showing how RCS will make things better, Apple softly announced support for the standard and focused on all the great features coming to iMessage users — not RCS ones.

Apple didn’t go over how RCS adoption will finally...

Kevin Jairaj-USA TODAY Sports

After the Boston Celtics were blown out in Game 4 of the NBA Finals, Charles Barkley had some thoughts

The 28-point loss for Boston now goes into the NBA record books as the third-worst loss in NBA Finals history, behind Game 3 of the 1998 NBA Finals...
