Check out our review of the Klipsch Status headphones.

Klipsch unveiled a posh new set of over-ear headphones today called the Status. Matching executive styling with blue collar durability, the Status are forged from high-strength Grilamid TR (read: crazy, super-strong polymer) for a“virtually indestructible” frame that also folds down to provide a convenient, travel-ready hi-fi solution.

Notable features for the Status include highly-tuned 40mm dynamic drivers, leather cloaked memory foam ear pads, dual detachable cloth cables (including one with a three-button inline iOS microphone), and an included carrying case. And of course, you also get the acclaimed Klipsch sound signature thrown in free of charge.

The headphones come in a high gloss finish in either black or white, and if these things sound as good as they look, we think Klipsch may have a winner on its hands — we’ll let you know as soon as we get a hold of a pair.

Klipsch’s new Status headphones are priced at $250, and are available today.

Hurry to save over 20% on this LG 50-inch QNED Mini-LED TV at Amazon

The LG 55-inch QNED80 TV.

There are some great Cyber Monday deals that are still going strong right now, with Amazon providing some extra special discounts. It's no secret that TV deals, which have become synonymous with the Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale event, are one of the best items you can score major (and rare!) discounts on. The LG 50-inch QNED80 Series TV is no exception, thanks to its 22% discount, bringing its price down to just $548 for Cyber Monday. Its typical sticker price is $697, saving you a cool $149 when you shop now. Perfect for most homes, here’s everything you need to know about it before you dive into one of the better Cyber Monday TV deals out there.

Why you should buy the LG QNED80 50-inch Mini-LED TV
Not quite sure what mini-LED is? That’s ok. It’s effectively a premium backlight-based technology that builds on traditional LED-LCD tech. It does so by using LEDs that are much smaller and can be used in great numbers. That means you get an image with better, deeper blacks and a much better level of control over your TV’s brightness. With LG being one of the best TV brands around, it knows how to use such technology well.

This $100 discount on Beats Solo 4 headphones ends tonight!

Beats Solo 4.

When we tested the Beats Solo 4 headphones back in May 2024, we were quite taken by the light fit, sleek design, and clear sound quality. Reviewer Simon Cohen said, “They're the same Beats Solo you know, but with a slew of modern upgrades.” One thing is for sure: whenever these cans go on sale, we’ll be letting you know. Oh, and that day just happens to be today:

For a limited time, when you purchase the Beats Solo 4, you’ll only pay $120. That’s half-off what these puppies usually sell for brand-new. It’s one of the best Cyber Monday deals we’ve seen so far, and the discount goes away at the stroke of midnight on Cyber Monday.
