PSA: The SmartThings V3 hub is nearly sold out.

And they won’t be making more, meaning there won’t be a way to add Z-Wave devices to a SmartThings smart home. Aeotec, which makes both hubs for Samsung, told me they have about 10,000 left, which may last through the end of the year. Samsung discontinued the V3 last year and replaced it with the Smart Home Hub 2, which has twice the performance, but doesn’t support Z-Wave.

The Bluesky experience.

Throng turns your Bluesky feed into a 3D walking getting yelled at simulator. The timeline becomes a crowd of people running up to recite each post in your face, then wandering off. Yes, it has ragdoll physics. There is also a giant cow. Happy Friday, everyone. [Media: https://bsky.app/profile/cee.wtf/post/3muplmkx56s2k]

These color-matched Belkin accessories almost make me want to buy a MacBook Neo.

Along with the chargers and cables, Belkin showed off matching power banks for its colorful laptop at IFA this week. The UltraCharge Pro 20K Power Bank ($99.95) and BoostCharge Pro Magnetic Power Bank 5K ($59.95) in matching Neo colors are Apple Store exclusives. The entire collection could really cheer up my desk on a dreary Monday morning.

Remarkable adds the ability to capture and copy what’s on screen by circling it.

A software update for Remarkable’s E Ink tablets introduces a new tool that can capture images of on-screen content by drawing a circle, or any shape, around what you want. The captures can be imported into your notebooks and repositioned, resized, and rotated as needed. The update also introduces improved formatting options for EPUB files and new pen stroke colors.

I saw a whole bunch of RTX Spark laptops all at once.

Only one of them switched on, and apparently it wasn’t even meant to, so I’ve got no deep performance insights about the first laptops powered by Nvidia’s RTX Spark chip. But Dell, Lenovo, MSI, Asus, HP, and Microsoft are all on board with hardware already — hopefully we’ll get the details on them all before too long.

Insta360’s Luna Pro shoots 4K vertical video.

The Luna Pro is already out in China. We’re still waiting for a US launch, but it was on the company’s stand at IFA so I had a play. It’s single-lens, but can use the 8K sensor to capture 4K footage either landscape or portrait, and has the Ultra’s detachable display too.

Psimulator brings Sega Dreamcast emulation to the iPhone.

Developer Benjamin Stark (ZodTTD) has been making emulators for iOS since long before Apple officially allowed them in its app store. Following their well-featured Gamma PS1 emulator comes Psimulator that plays Dreamcast games with features like cloud syncing, Bluetooth controller support, and a skin designer right within the $4.99 app. [Image: https://platform.theverge.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/09/dreamcast.jpg?quality=90&strip=all]
