And if you’re a PC gamer who has yet to play Respawn’s excellent follow-up to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, you can pick up a digital copy on the Epic Games Store for $52.49 (about $18 off) as part of Epic’s ongoing Mega sale, which runs until June 15th. We praised the game in our review, namely for the way the Star Wars title builds upon the original without completely rejiggering what made the first game such a joy.

Unlike most battery packs, Anker’s 622 Magnetic Battery (MagGo) comes with a built-in kickstand. | Image: Antonio G. Di Benedetto / The Verge A portable power bank that can wirelessly charge your iPhone while on the go can help make traveling a much smoother experience. But before you go and splurge on Apple’s MagSafe Battery Pack, take a look at the Anker 622 Magnetic Battery (MagGo) instead.

The Liberty 3 Pro pack a lot of functionality into a fairly inexpensive package. | Photo by Chris Welch / The Verge Suffice it to say, with the introduction of the Beats Studio Buds Plus and Amazon’s latest pair of Echo Buds this morning, it’s been a busy week on the wireless earbud beat.

Macworld Apple introduced the redesigned iMac with a new colorful design and M1 chip at its Spring Loaded event back in April 2021. Now we have passed the two-year anniversary of the new-look iMac, we’re hoping Apple will update it sometime in 2023 with a new chip – which would be fitting with this year marking 25 since Apple introduced the original G3 iMac – but the wait could be even longer.   Apple is well into the launch of the second generation of Apple silicon, with the M2 arriving in June 2022 and the M2 Pro and M2 Max coming in January.
