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.

Why you should buy the TCL 65-inch Class Q65 QLED
This 2024 Fire TV is a fully-featured smart TV with a capable operating system, 4K resolution display, and a competitive price. And, despite that price, it has everything you need to feel you have a truly modern TV. This includes Motion Rate 240 for high motion clarity during action scenes, the low latency and low lag gaming modes that we've seen on nearly all new TVs over the past couple of years, the latest Fire TV experience with streaming for everything from live TV to video games, and more. While many of you may prefer OLED TVs vs QLED TVs, QLEDs are still known for their incredible brightness. If you're on the hunt for a TV for under $500, you'll likely not feel like you went wrong here.

Christmas is upon us, and although there's a lot of heartfelt sentiment around the biggest holiday of the year, it also means something more material: gifting (!). If you're using Cyber Monday deals to start getting gifts, that's great — but most buys are usually too large to fit in a stocking (just try to fit one of these Cyber Monday Alienware deals in a sock!), and the prices can be way off.

How much should you spend on stocking stuffers? What is "allowed"? We rounded up a list of the best gifts to buy on Cyber Monday for your stocking-stuffing needs — all of which are tiny treasures that will undoubtedly be well-received and, in some cases, will generate a fun laugh.
