Are you thinking of Wirecutter? They are a sub brand of NYT, whereas The Verge is part of Vox Media

According to Wikipedia's article on The Verge [1] "up to nine of Engadget's writers, editors, and product developers, including editor-in-chief Joshua Topolsky, left AOL, the company behind that website, to start a new gadget site."

So apparently they were once a 'gadget site'
