Picture a courier walking up your driveway while someone else quietly tries your side gate. A normal pan-tilt camera picks one of them and forgets the other exists. Reolink’s OMVI 2i Ultra handles it by carrying two cameras at once: a fixed 4K wide lens on top that never stops watching the full scene, and a 5MP pan-tilt ball below that spins 355 degrees to lock onto whatever the wide lens flags. Both feeds record at the same time, and you can tap anywhere on the wide view to slew the turret straight to that spot. It debuted at IFA 2026 in Berlin, ships late October, and costs between $200 and $250.

A detachable 10,000mAh pack claims six months per charge, and the 6W SolarEase panel says it needs about thirty minutes of daily sun to stay topped up, against the one to two hours Reolink quotes for rivals like Eufy’s S340 and the Tapo C675D. Those are Reolink’s own numbers, so hold them loosely until somebody leaves one on a north-facing wall through a British winter. The rest is easier to verify. Wi-Fi 6 across both bands, up to 512GB of local microSD with no subscription attached, colour night vision from twin spotlights, a siren, and IP65 sealing. At a kilogram with the bracket, it is a proper lump of hardware rather than something you tuck on a shelf.

Designer: Reolink

Pan-tilt cameras have quietly lied to buyers since the format existed. Sell someone a camera that turns to follow motion and you have also sold them a camera that stops watching everywhere else the instant it does. Reolink’s fix is embarrassingly simple once you see it. Stop asking one lens to be both the guard and the chaser, and give it a second lens that only guards. The wide 4K unit up top runs at 110 degrees horizontal and never rotates, so the scene it opened on is the scene it keeps recording no matter where the PT ball below it wanders off to. Reolink calls this SyncTrack, but the actual idea is closer to division of labour than any clever algorithm. One camera commits to context, the other commits to pursuit, and neither has to compromise for the sake of the other.

This is the third time Reolink has built this exact idea in 2026, and each version has been a slightly different argument about what matters most. The X16 landed at CES in January as a 24MP full metal flagship with 16x optical zoom, but it needs an ethernet run to function, which puts a hard ceiling on where it can live. The 3i followed in June with PoE and wired Wi-Fi options at $319.99, still asking for a nearby outlet even in its most flexible form. The 2i Ultra drops the combined resolution to 8MP plus 5MP and, in exchange, cuts the cord entirely. The trade-off is the clever bit, because being able to pop a camera on a fence or a backyard without worrying about wiring is much more convenient than haggling over megapixels.

A squared-off dual-lens head sits above a separate motorized ball, with a solar panel tilting on its own hinge overhead, and the whole assembly weighs a full kilogram once the bracket is attached. Compare that to Reolink’s own Argus MagiCam, a 108-gram cube you stick to a fridge with a magnet, and the difference in ambition is obvious at a glance. This is not a camera trying to disappear into a bookshelf. It reads more like a small piece of maritime equipment bolted under an eave, and that visible mechanical presence is doing some of the deterrence work before the siren ever gets involved.

That dual-lens design is quite literally baked into the name. OMVI reads like omni-vision, a camera built to watch in every direction at once instead of picking a lane. Arlo’s Ultra flagship still wants a wall plug or a proprietary base station to unlock its best tricks, and Nest’s outdoor cameras have quietly stayed wired-first for years now, which makes the 2i Ultra’s fully wire-free build feel like it is actually catching up to how people install things rather than how manufacturers wish they would. No drilled conduit, no hub tucked in a closet, just a battery, a solar panel, and a spot on the fence you actually wanted the camera to go.

That is the real flex against the flagships twice its price. You are not paying for a wall socket you have to plan your whole install around, and you are not paying for a bulky base station eating an outlet indoors either. You get two lenses doing genuinely different jobs, a battery that outlasts most of the category on paper, and a name that finally means something instead of just sounding techy. At $200 to $250, the OMVI 2i Ultra is the version of omni-vision security that shows up ready to mount anywhere the moment you take it out of the box.

The post Reolink’s OMVI 2i Ultra Wireless Security Camera can look in two directions at once: Hands-on at IFA 2026 first appeared on Yanko Design.

The worst part of owning a security camera has never been the camera. It is the ladder, the drill, the wall plug, and the moment you realize you aimed the thing eight degrees too far left. Reolink’s Argus MagiCam deletes all of that with a magnet. The 68mm  GoPro-looking cube slaps onto any metal surface in about two seconds, or onto an included magnetic puck with a swivel arm for everything else, turning any surface into a security surveillance monitor (you can even mount it in your car as a dashcam)… and here’s the kicker. It runs up to nine months on two AA lithium batteries. Nine. Whole. Months. I repositioned it three times in under a minute at IFA 2026, which is three more times than I have ever moved a camera bolted to a wall.

Sixty-five dollars buys 1080p, IP67 weatherproofing, dual-band Wi-Fi, on-device person detection, and local microSD storage with no monthly fee attached. Flip the cube over and the back panel detaches to a bay holding two ordinary AAs, the SD slot and the reset button, all serviceable with a coin and a spare hand. Reolink built it around Qualcomm’s QCC730 micro-power Wi-Fi chip for its Power Efficient Series, shown in Hall 1.2 next to the OMVI 2i Ultra. A USB-C port hides under a rubber flap for 24/7 recording when you want it wired. Three colours: black, white, and a mint green that has no business looking this good.

Designer: Reolink

A matte PIR dome sits on the left, a glossy ringed lens sits on the right, and a pinhole mic hides between them, the whole cluster raised on a squared-off black module that reads more like a GoPro’s lens housing than anything borrowed from traditional security hardware. Security cameras have spent two decades pretending they belong on a parking structure, all bullet housings and matte black anonymity. This one borrows its language from action cameras instead, small, chunky, built to be picked up and repositioned rather than mounted once and forgotten, which is exactly why the mint colorway makes sense sitting on a bookshelf instead of bolted above a garage. That GoPro reference is not incidental either. It signals a camera meant to be handled, not just installed.

The battery bay is the real argument here. Somewhere along the way, the smart home industry decided sealed rechargeable packs looked cleaner on a spec sheet, and quietly handed every camera, doorbell, and earbud an expiry date measured in a couple of years. Reolink went the other direction, and the QCC730 chip is what makes that reversal viable rather than nostalgic, since its whole job is sipping power in standby instead of gulping it. Blink has claimed two years off two AA lithiums since its Outdoor 4 launched, though independent testing has repeatedly landed closer to a few months once real motion traffic gets involved. Nine months against a heavier five minutes of daily recording, verified in Reolink’s own side by side tests, reads like the more honest number in the room.

What you give up for all that convenience is resolution, and it barely registers as a cost. This is a 1080p sensor at a moment when 4K battery cameras exist, sure, but 1080p is still plenty sharp for spotting a face at the door or a raccoon in the bin, and the fixed bitrate keeps file sizes sane on a modest microSD card. Night vision runs through a single mono IR LED instead of anything approaching colour, which is standard fare at this tier, not a shortfall specific to Reolink. For a camera this cheap, this easy to place, and this forgiving on power, trading a few thousand pixels feels like a fair swap rather than a compromise. The MagiCam was never trying to be the sharpest eye on your property. It is trying to be the one you actually keep charged, and on that specific promise, the AA drawer you have been ignoring for a decade just became a legitimate accessory again.

September always arrives with a different energy. The summer concept season wraps up, the shipping boxes start showing up, and the gadgets worth keeping finally separate from the ones that were only ever interesting in a render. This month’s lineup is unusually strong: a $2,000 iPhone that finally killed the foldable crease, a Dyson toothbrush with a camera inside the brush head, and a telescope that fits in a bag you could carry onto a plane.

What connects all eight is not a price bracket or a category. It is the feeling that the designers started with a known compromise and refused to accept it. Foldable phones have always had a crease. Astrophotography has always needed a trunk full of gear. CD players have always been opaque boxes. Each gadget below found that exact problem and built past it. September’s best gear does not update existing things. It quietly makes them look dated.

1. iPhone Ultra

Apple saved its most aggressive design argument for last. The iPhone Ultra lands September 18 at $2,000, and the headline detail is the one that sounds impossible until you hold it — the visible crease is gone. Foldable phones have carried that horizontal line across the display since the format began, and every manufacturer called it a reasonable engineering compromise. Apple did not agree. The crease is gone, which means either the engineering problem is finally solved or a new one was quietly created in its place.

At $2,000, it is the most expensive iPhone Apple has shipped, and the price will be the loudest objection for most people. That is fair. It is also a phone that, when unfolded, gives you a display large enough to genuinely replace a small tablet, without the crease that made every foldable feel like a prototype. Whether the price is justified depends on how much that line across the screen has bothered you. For a certain buyer, the number will feel completely reasonable.

What We Like

• The visible crease is gone, a problem every other foldable has simply accepted as permanent
• September 18 availability means no waiting on a vague launch window

What We Dislike

• $2,000 is a significant ask even for the most committed Apple buyer
• At that price, the upgrade calculus is genuinely difficult for anyone coming from a recent iPhone

2. Dyson CameraJet Toothbrush

Dyson hid a 1mm camera directly under the brush head, and it reads 28 images a second while you brush. Within 100 milliseconds of detecting a gap in your coverage, the feedback loop kicks in. This is not an app that grades you on timing or buzzes when two minutes are up. It sees exactly where the bristles are not reaching and responds in real time, which is a fundamentally different answer to a problem the toothbrush industry has spent decades pretending does not exist.

The $499 price reads as absurd until you consider what it replaces. Most people spend years brushing the same spots and missing the same gaps, and no timer-based electric toothbrush has fixed that because timers do not know where your brush is. The camera does. Dyson also redesigned the toothpaste to work alongside the system, which suggests they understood that this product was not adding a feature to an existing object but rebuilding the assumptions around one entirely.

What We Like

• A 1mm camera reading 28 frames per second gives real-time coverage feedback no other toothbrush can match
• Dyson redesigned the toothpaste alongside the brush, showing the depth of thinking behind the product

What We Dislike

• $499 is a difficult number for a toothbrush regardless of what it does
• Proprietary toothpaste dependency is a meaningful lock-in that will frustrate buyers over time

3. ZWO Seestar S50 Pro

Astrophotography has always had a reputation problem. Getting a decent image of a nebula or galaxy traditionally meant a telescope, a tracking mount, a camera body, a set of filters, a laptop running capture software, and a location dark enough to make the whole trip worth it. The ZWO Seestar S50 Pro compresses that entire setup into something you could carry in a camera bag. That compression is not a minor convenience. It is the difference between astrophotography being a hobby you have and one you actually practice.

The S50 Pro is not a crowdfunded concept or a prototype. It is a shipping device sold through B&H, Amazon, and ZWO directly, part of a line that has been refining the smart telescope format for several years. For people who have wanted to try astrophotography without committing to a several-thousand-dollar hardware stack, it is the most credible entry point available right now, and the images it produces at this size are the kind that still feel surprising every time you see them.

What We Like

• Compresses a full astrophotography rig into one bag without requiring a tracking mount or separate laptop
• Sold through established US retailers with confirmed availability, not a waitlist product

What We Dislike

• Smart telescopes in this class still need a reasonably dark sky to produce compelling results
• The app-dependent workflow means the imaging experience is only as good as the software behind it

4. Camera With Digital Film

Every digital photo you have ever taken lives in a folder. Most of them stay there. The Camera with Digital Film changes the end of that process by ejecting a physical e-paper cartridge when you fire the shutter. Because e-paper holds its image without power, that small rectangle stays a picture permanently. You can lean it against a monitor, pin it to a wall, or hand it directly to the person you just photographed, and none of that requires a printer, an app, or a subscription to anything.

This is a personal maker build, not a retail product, which means you cannot order one. But the project is documented and open, which is its own kind of contribution. Instant cameras eject paper prints that fade over years. This ejects a display that does not. The object you walk away with is not a printout of a photo. It is the photo, held in a piece of hardware that draws no power to stay that way. The difference is not subtle once you hold one.

What We Like

• E-paper holds the image without power indefinitely, making every shot a permanent physical object
• The format lets you hand a photo to someone in the moment without a printer anywhere nearby

What We Dislike

• This is a maker build with no purchase option — you build it, or you do not have it
• E-paper’s limited color range means images read closer to a graphic print than a full-color photograph

5. ClearFrame Speaker + CD Player

The ClearFrame puts a CD player and a speaker into a frame you can see straight through, and the transparent design earns its place by making the mechanical parts of the player the visual feature rather than something hidden behind matte plastic. Watching a disc spin inside a clear housing is a different experience from staring at a closed box, and the ClearFrame is built around the idea that the hardware itself is worth looking at. The mechanism is the aesthetic. Nothing about that is accidental.

For anyone building a desk around objects that hold their own visually, the ClearFrame gives the CD player a reason to be out in the open rather than tucked away. The disc, the mechanism, the speaker housing: all of it visible, all of it intentional. It is not a nostalgia product. It is a design argument about what audio hardware looks like when it stops hiding its own workings.

Click Here to Buy Now: $240.00

What We Like

• The transparent frame turns the mechanical components into the centerpiece rather than concealing them
• Combines a CD player and speaker into one object with a coherent visual identity

What We Dislike

• Listed under upcoming drops only, so exact pricing and shipping timeline are not yet confirmed
• A clear housing will need regular cleaning to maintain the effect it is entirely built around

6. Cyberpunk 2077 x Commodore 64

The Commodore 64 launched in 1982. Cyberpunk 2077, the game, is set in 2077. The gap between those two years is roughly the entire history of consumer computing, and this collab leans into that distance rather than papering over it. The result sits at the intersection of two very specific aesthetics: the beige plastic of early home computing and the neon-drenched maximalism of Night City. Somehow they feel like they were always related. The Retro Games Ltd license makes it a real retail product, not a limited drop built on hype.

For people who grew up with a C64 or remember it as the machine that first felt like a home computer, this collab has a logic that is hard to argue with. Cyberpunk’s world is built on the idea that technology accumulates rather than replaces, and a computer from 1982 sitting alongside a game set in 2077 makes that point visually without needing to explain itself. It is the kind of object that earns its shelf space because it means something beyond what it does.

What We Like

• The 95-year gap between the C64’s launch and the game’s setting is the entire premise, and the design commits to it
• A real licensed retail product through Retro Games Ltd, not a concept or an event-exclusive run

What We Dislike

• The appeal is almost entirely to people with an attachment to either the C64 or Cyberpunk 2077 specifically
• As a niche collab object, it will be difficult to track down outside dedicated retro gaming retailers

7. OrigamiSwift Folding Mouse

Standard mice do not pack flat. They sit awkwardly in bags, take up more space than their function warrants, and feel like a compromise every time you travel with a laptop. The OrigamiSwift uses an origami-influenced folding structure that collapses the mouse into something genuinely flat: the kind of object you forget is in your bag until you need it.

Travel mice as a category have existed for a long time, but most of them solve portability by making the mouse physically smaller rather than foldable. Smaller mice are less comfortable to use for any extended session. The OrigamiSwift’s approach is different: it folds to pack and unfolds to a full grip, which means you are not choosing between portability and comfort every time you pull it out. For anyone who works from multiple locations, that trade-off has been the quiet frustration with every travel mouse that came before this one.

Click Here to Buy Now: $85.00

What We Like

• Folds flat for packing without reducing grip size for use, a problem most travel mice simply ignore

What We Dislike

• Folding mechanisms introduce hinge wear over time that rigid designs never have to account for
• Travel-first positioning may mean trade-offs in sensor performance compared to a dedicated desk mouse

8. ROG Ally X Dual-Screen Mod

Dual-screen handhelds usually mean buying an entirely new device built around that feature from the ground up. This ROG Ally X mod skips that purchase. It snaps a 120Hz secondary display onto an existing Ally X using a mount system that removes just as easily, which means you get the dual-screen setup when you want it and a standard handheld when you do not. The engineering problem this solves is not new, but the solution here is additive rather than architectural, which makes it the more interesting answer.

It is a maker project, which means you build it rather than buy it, and the plans are documented and freely available. That limits its audience to people comfortable with a hobbyist build. Within that group, it is one of the more compelling uses of a gaming handheld’s form factor to surface this year. The 120Hz refresh rate on the secondary screen is not a placeholder spec either — it keeps up with the primary display rather than undercutting it, which has been the consistent weakness of every dual-screen attempt before this one.

What We Like

• Snaps on and off without permanently modifying the Ally X itself
• 120Hz on the secondary screen matches the primary display rather than being a visible step down

What We Dislike

• No kit to order — you source and assemble the components yourself, or you do not have it
• A second active display will draw additional power from the Ally X battery, which is already a known constraint on the device

September is not a month that usually swings this hard. Three products you can buy today, two from the YD shop, a maker build you can start this weekend, and an iPhone that lands in 16 days at a price that will generate more conversation than almost anything Apple has shipped in years. The range across eight picks is wider than usual, and that width is the point.

The through line is stubbornness. Every one of these objects exists because someone decided the accepted version of the thing was not good enough and built a different answer. A crease-free fold. A toothbrush that watches you brush in real time. A CD player you can see straight through. A photo that ejects itself from a camera. That kind of thinking does not happen every month. September had a good one.

The post The 8 Best Gadgets of September 2026 first appeared on Yanko Design.

For three years, Plaud made very good tape recorders with a PhD. You pressed a button, it captured a meeting, and mere minutes later a summary showed up. The Plaud One, launched at IFA 2026 for €249.90, reverses that arrow. Its charging case now holds four beamforming mics, a speaker, an agent button and a built in eSIM, so it stays online without a phone nearby. Hold the agent button and the AI talks back, asks what you meant, then builds the deck or drafts the email while you get on with your day.

That flip from recording to doing needed hardware nobody had built yet. Not a pendant, not a pin, not another app crammed onto a phone you were already staring at. Plaud built a palm sized aluminum box with a fluted lid that looks like a Rimowa suitcase went through a shrink ray, sitting on a table, listening across a room, and talking back like a colleague who never needs coffee. The Explorer Edition opens for pre order now, capped at 2,000 units worldwide, with deliveries landing in Q4. A public version follows in 2027, once Plaud has watched two thousand early adopters put the thing through its paces.

Designer: Plaud

The original Plaud Note clipped onto a phone and did one job, listen to a meeting and hand back a transcript once it ended. The Note Pro added a screen and better mics. The NotePin S shrank the format onto a lanyard clip. Every generation stayed reactive by design, a smart recorder waiting for you to press stop before it did anything useful. That business built Plaud’s 2.5 million user base and reportedly crossed $100 million in annual software revenue by June, which is exactly the kind of runway that lets a company gamble on reinventing its own hardware category from scratch.

Vertical fluting runs down the case’s aluminum lid, the same visual trick Rimowa has stamped into cabin luggage since the 1950s, giving a 62 gram object a sense of density it has no right to carry. Flip it open and the earbuds sit half in ear, silver capped, in a tray that reads closer to a jewelry box than a charging dock. A speaker grille, a record button and a separate agent button line the case’s edge, the three controls that turn a charger into a device you actually talk to. None of it apes a phone. It reads like furniture for a desk, not gear for a pocket.

Earlier Plaud devices leaned on your phone for both processing and connectivity, so the intelligence always sat one hop away from the microphone. Plaud One’s case carries its own 4G LTE connection through a built in eSIM, closing that gap entirely. Capture, transcription and agent response now run in one box, independent of any other screen in your life. Leave your phone in a bag, walk into a cafe, and the case still records the table’s conversation, answers a question out loud through its speaker, or fires off a follow up email on command. Every pendant and pin that came before this quietly depended on a phone doing the real work behind the scenes. Plaud One is the first in the category that genuinely does not.

Plaud Agent drafts a follow up email the moment a client call ends. Feed it a meeting and it builds a slide deck while you sit through your next call, then drops the finished file straight into Notion with zero copy pasting. The platform connects to Gmail, Google Workspace, Microsoft Teams, Slack and Notion today, with more integrations promised as the software matures. Set it loose on a standing task, a monthly competitor scan for instance, and it runs quietly in the background, waiting with a finished report the next time you check. This is the actual bet Plaud is making, that an assistant worth having has to act, not just remember.

Pre orders for the Explorer Edition are open now at €249.90, with the first 2,000 units shipping in Q4. Buyers get $200 in Plaud Credits toward the heavier agent features on top of a starter transcription plan, so the price buys a running start on the software as much as the hardware. Calling this an Explorer Edition rather than a finished release is the honest move, an open beta wearing genuinely sharp industrial design. Plaud spent three years building the best possible way to listen. Plaud One is its first real attempt at building something worth talking to.

There are power tools, and then there are smart tools. A power tool gives you brute force; a smart tool gives you controlled, consistent results. Think of a simple drill that just spins versus one that manages its own torque to avoid stripping a screw. For delicate work like trimming EVA foam for a cosplay project or cleaning up support structures on a 3D print, you definitely want the smart one. The problem is, most handheld cutters are pretty basic, giving you one speed and just hoping for the best.

The SonicMax Slice 10 is aiming for that higher IQ. It’s a cordless ultrasonic cutter that senses the material you’re cutting and adjusts its own power output in real time. Slice through dense plastic and it pushes harder; trim the thin walls of a resin print and it eases back. This adaptive system, combined with cooling that prevents heat-related power drops, makes it feel like proper workshop equipment in the palm of your hand. It runs at 40kHz, delivers up to 50 watts of dynamic peak power, and does all of this without a single cable getting in your way.

Most ultrasonic cutters on the market use transducers with a mechanical quality factor, or Qm, somewhere between 150 and 250. A higher Qm means the transducer converts electrical energy into vibration more efficiently, which directly translates to less heat generated during use. SonicMax claims a Qm of over 500 for the Slice 10, and lab data backs that up with a verified measurement of 541.1. That’s roughly two to three times higher than a typical competing tool, and it’s the foundational reason the Slice 10 can sustain longer sessions without thermal drama. That single transducer decision cascades into everything else, from runtime and cut quality to how comfortable the tool actually stays in your hand.

As the blade meets resistance, the Slice 10’s Smart Material Auto-Detection reads that feedback and adjusts power output and vibration frequency without you touching anything. Cutting through a stiff chunk of EVA foam feels different from trimming the thin walls of a resin print, and the tool responds to each material accordingly. You’re not locked into a fixed setting that works okay for most things but perfectly for nothing. The system also preserves cut quality across a long session, where material resistance can shift as the blade warms. The result is consistent cuts from the first pass to the last, regardless of what you’re running the blade through.

Heat is the reason most cordless ultrasonic cutters force you to stop every five to ten minutes, and the Slice 10 attacks that problem from two directions. Corded bench tools sidestep this issue by drawing steady power and dissipating heat more easily, but you give all of that up the moment you cut the cord. The high-efficiency transducer generates less heat from the start, and the built-in active cooling fan manages whatever thermal load does build up during a session. Overheat protection kicks in automatically at 80 degrees Celsius at the motherboard level, so the tool protects itself without you having to babysit it. You only appreciate how good this is after you’ve spent a session on a cutter that kept shutting itself off on you mid-cut.

A 5000mAh 21700 lithium-ion battery powers the Slice 10, and SonicMax made it user-replaceable, which you’ll end up appreciating far more than any spec sheet number. The 21700 is a high-performance cell format found in premium flashlights and power tools, so sourcing replacements from SonicMax or compatible third-party brands should never be a problem. SonicMax’s own branded replacement cell is rated for 500 charge cycles at 80% capacity retention, a reasonable lifespan for a tool you’re actually putting to work regularly. An 18W USB-C pass-through charging system brings it from zero to full in about 70 minutes, and the tool keeps running while plugged in. Claimed runtime sits at up to four hours, and when you run low mid-project, swapping in a spare takes seconds.

Blade choice gives the Slice 10 a lot of its bench-tool personality. SonicMax offers five blade styles that let the same handheld body take on very different jobs: a Standard Utility Blade for everyday trimming, a Precision Long Blade for tighter access and more delicate reach, a Fine Chisel Blade for careful cleanup work, a Heavy Duty Chisel Blade for more aggressive material removal, and a Wide Flat Scraper Blade for broader surface work. That range matters because it turns the Slice 10 into something closer to a compact cutting system than a one-trick knife. If you’re the kind of maker who bounces between foam, plastic, supports, edges, and surface cleanup in the same afternoon, this is where the tool starts looking properly versatile.

Lift-to-Activate sensing turns the tool on when you pick it up and off when you set it down, keeping your fingers away from controls mid-session and preventing accidental activation on the bench. A small OLED display shows real-time power output and battery level, so you’re never left guessing how much runtime remains. Built-in LED lighting illuminates the cut line, which sounds like a minor detail until you’re trying to trace a clean edge on a dark-colored print at your desk at some ungodly hour. Auto-shutdown kicks in after five minutes of idle, and low-battery protection activates before the cell drops to a damaging voltage. Together, these details make the Slice 10 feel like a tool that respects your workflow rather than constantly asking you to manage it.

The Slice 10 measures 260.5mm long and 28mm across, weighing 236 grams, keeping it firmly in single-hand, pen-grip territory across long sessions. Just the Slice 10 is available for a discounted $119, and ships with 10 replaceable Standard Utility blades. Upgrade to the Maker’s Bundle for $169 and you get the Slice 10 along with 50 blades spread across the five blade profiles (standard, precision long, fine chisel, heavy duty chisel, and flat scraper) as well as a 5000mAh replacement battery. If you’re looking for versatility and pushing your prints to the max, the $50 price bump does bring a fair share of value. You can also buy extra blades and batteries as add-ons. Shipping is expected to begin mid-October 2026 with worldwide delivery available, and SonicMax has not publicly confirmed warranty terms at the time of writing.
