Though Adult Swim has been very quiet about Juston Gordon-Montgomery’s Invincible Fight Girl since sharing a brief tease earlier this summer, the animated series finally has a release date and a snazzy new trailer. Set in a world where seemingly everyone is a self-styled wrestler, Invincible Fight Girl tells the story of Andy (Sydney Mikayla), a young girl who sets out on a mission to become a legendary brawler one match at a time. While Andy’s parents want her to become an accountant, she longs for the kind of fame and glory that her retired wrestling champ Aunt P. (Rolonda Watts) enjoyed during her days knocking skulls in front of crowds of roaring fans. Andy’s size makes her seem like she might not be all that much of a threat to the... Continue reading…

If you want to store and play the newest Xbox Series X / S games, a normal hard drive won’t do. | Image: Western Digital There’s a deluge of games coming to Xbox over the next few months, so you’d better have some extra storage handy. Xbox Series X / S owners only have one real option for newer games: the various expansion cards you can get from Western Digital and Seagate. Thankfully, they’re steeply discounted for the October Amazon Prime Day event. Exclusively for Prime members, Western Digital’s WD_Black C50 1TB Storage Expansion Card for Xbox is on sale at Amazon for $120.64 (about $37 off), very nearly its lowest price to date. You can also get WD’s 512GB card for $65.54 (about $14 off), a few dollars shy of its lowest mark. Seagate expansion cards are on sale, too. They’re a bit more expensive, but they also don’t require a Prime membership. A... Continue reading…

Grab this aloe version while it’s still in stock. | Photo: Allison Johnson / The Verge Google’s Pixel 8A is the kind of phone you tell your parents or your hair stylist to buy (hi, Shannon!). The interface is straightforward and clean, it offers a high level of dust and water resistance, and it’ll receive regular software updates for the next seven years. That’ll give you a lot of peace of mind recommending it to friends and family. The cameras aren’t quite as good as what you’d get on the regular Pixel 8 or a newer Pixel 9, but they’re reliable and can even tackle some tricky scenarios, like when the northern lights sneak up on you in your own backyard. The 8A also has Qi wireless charging and a smooth-scrolling 120Hz screen — two features that you’ll be hard-pressed to find in another phone under $400. Its full price... Continue reading…

Apple will likely introduce a new iPad mini in the coming weeks. Three years after Cupertino last revamped its smallest tablet, there are several features we expect Apple to add to the iPad mini 7, making it a solid option for buyers. Even though a redesign and new display technology are expected for 2026 or 2027, there are at least five other features we think Apple will add to the iPad mini 7. A18 chip: When Apple introduced the iPad mini 6, the company added the newest A15 Bionic chip, exclusively available for the iPhone 13. If Cupertino follows the trend, this new iPad will feature the A18 chip. With that, Apple will double the performance on this new iPad, while also improving memory bandwidth and power efficiency. Apple Intelligence: The only two iPad models that don't feature Apple Intelligence are the mini and the base-model options. Since the iPad mini is almost an iPad Air with a smaller display, we think Apple will add 8GB of RAM to this device so it can run Apple Intelligence features. Image source: Apple Inc. Apple Pencil Pro: Apple has made a mess out of its Apple Pencil offering. There are four different accessories that work with different iPads. If the company wants to make sense of this confusing lineup, it might add support for Apple Pencil Pro with this upcoming tablet, which would add support for squeeze gestures, haptic feedback, and Find My integration. Camera tweak: Now, the only iPad that doesn't offer a front-facing camera on the landscape edge is the iPad mini. This next iteration could make the switch. However, I wouldn't be surprised if Apple doesn't tweak this iPad's camera, as it's the most portable and easy to use in portrait orientation. Improved connectivity offerings: The new iPhone offers Wi-Fi 7 capabilities. However, BGR expects Apple to upgrade the iPad mini 7 with Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, and perhaps an eSIM technology instead of a physical SIM tray. Wrap up The new iPad mini 7 will likely be announced at Apple's upcoming October event. Would these features be enough to make you upgrade to this tablet? BGR will let you know once we learn more about it. Don't Miss: Apple Pencil comparison: 1st-gen, 2nd-gen, USB-C, or Pro – which is best for your iPad?
