Master and Dynamic’s New Headphones Provide the Perfect Urban Camouflage

When you’re commuting to work or caught in the hustle-and-bustle of downtown, sometimes you just want to tune it all out. Master and Dynamic can help you out — the noted New York-based audio company just released three new headphones with top-notch sound quality and stylish colors that look at home in the city or the great outdoors.

Our brother site, Digital Trends, sums it up perfectly: “The Greene Street Collection adds two new colorways to three existing sets of Master and Dynamic headphones: The noise-isolating MH40 (olive and camo), the excellent MW50 (olive and black), and the top-tier MW60 (olive and camo). The associated campaign, A World Apart … features a character in a full ghillie suit traipsing through New York City, bringing a decidedly military/hunting aesthetic to the urban jungle.”

A World Apart

The fabric on the bands is premium cowhide, but your ears will enjoy lambskin on the cups. While all three pairs — the MH40, the MW50, and the MW60 — have a similar aesthetic, they have distinctly different functionalities: the MW50 ($449) and the MW60 ($549) are wireless, but the MH40 ($399) still has trusty cables. Keep in mind that the brand also offers these same headphones in a variety of colors, including black, silver, and blue.

Interested in a pair? Those of you in the Big Apple can hop on over to Master and Dynamic’s first-ever retail location. This convenient pop-up shop in the SoHo neighbor will open just in time for Black Friday (November 24) and run through the end of the year.

While relatively new — Master and Dynamic only hit the scene in 2014 — the young company has already branched out from headphones to home speakers. You can check out a review of the MA770, the brand’s wireless speaker, over at Digital Trends (or, if you’re in the market for something flashier, these Klipsch speakers might do the trick).

This is our favorite Nintendo Switch Cyber Monday deal
A person plays Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on a Nintendo Switch in handheld mode.

We just found a Cyber Monday deal that is, admittedly, somewhat confusing in what you're getting and how much of a deal you're getting it for. It's the Nintendo Switch Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Bundle. It includes a Nintendo Switch, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and three months of Nintendo Switch Online for $300. Unfortunately, what this deal leaves out is how much this would cost without the deal, just telling us that it is a Cyber Monday deal. So, we did the math for you. What was found was that other Nintendo Switch deals are putting the console, alone, at $300. That means this bundle's bonus is the game and three months of online, which are worth approximately $68 when not on sale. In other words, this bundle is worth (very approximately) $368, but you are getting it for only $300. Tap the button below to see it for yourself or keep reading to see more about why this is one of our favorite Nintendo Cyber Monday deals.

Why you should buy the Nintendo Switch Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Bundle
The Nintendo Switch is a game changer of a console. While it isn't as technically proficient as other recent consoles, it's a ton of fun. It's effectively a small tablet with a 6.2-inch LCD multi-touch display with it having its two Joy-Con controllers attached to either side to turn it into a highly proficient handheld console. At any time, you can dock it via its cradle so you can play it on a TV turning it into a regular TV-based console.

Two of the best Android phones are discounted for Cyber Monday
The Google Pixel 8 and Google Pixel 8 Pro, side by side.

Cyber Monday is here again, and as part of Cyber Monday deals at Best Buy, you can get a fantastic deal on one of our favorite Google Pixel phones, either the Google Pixel 8 or the Google Pixel 8 Pro. Both are discounted quite a lot as part of the sales event, with the Pixel 8 losing $150 off of its standard price and the Pixel 8 Pro shedding $200. Take a look at both phones, and their associated deals, in the blurbs below before you decide on which one you want.
Google Pixel 8 — $549, was $699:

Starting with the stats, Google's Pixel 8 has a 6.2 inch, 1080p screen that refreshes up to 120Hz. It operates on the latest Google Tensor 3 processor and the Android 14 OS with 8GB of RAM, about the same as a fairly standard laptop. One of its coolest features comes in the form of its new Magic Eraser feature. When you take a photo with your Google Pixel 8's 50MP rear camera or 10.5MP front-facing selfie cam, you might find unwanted objects in the scene. All you need to do is tap the objects to select them and AI magic will erase them from the scene, replacing them with some GPT-style magic imagery. It also has a fantastic battery life, lasting well into the second day after a charge, which makes it (in terms of battery life) better than the Pixel 8 Pro. When you aren't using your lenses to make magic photos, you can even shoot 4K video.
