The best Prime Day iPad deals: Shop Apple tablets starting under $300 before the price hikes arrive

Every iPad is about to get more expensive on Amazon. Shop its Prime Day iPad deals to lock in the best prices.

iPads have everything you love in a MacBook, just in a more portable package, which makes them perfect for summer travel. They fit easily in a personal item or carry-on but still bring Apple's signature speedy performance.

Unfortunately, the entire iPad lineup just got some big price hikes. Apple made its tablets (and laptops) more expensive on June 25, citing soaring memory and storage costs because of AI data center demand. All models are at least $100 more expensive than before.

On the bright side, Amazon isn't matching the Apple Store's newly higher iPad prices just yet. Better still, every model is on sale there for Prime Day this week. If you've been thinking about buying a new iPad, the right time to buy is right now, before Amazon adjusts its listings. It's last call for cheap iPads starting at just $299.

Read on for our full list of the best Prime Day iPad deals; we'll continue to update it through the end of the sale on June 26. If you're thinking of buying any other Apple products, be sure check out our separate guide to the best Prime Day Apple deals, too.

Best Prime Day iPad deal

Why we like it

Our beloved iPad Air is the best tablet money can buy, and it's an even better value on sale. Amazon has the base model marked down to just $519 during Prime Day, which is a new record-low price. You save $80 on its current MSRP of $599. For comparison's sake, the Apple Store just bumped the same model to $749. (If it sells out on Amazon, look for it at Best Buy. The tech retailer was price-matching its Prime Day deal at the time of writing.)

This is an incredible tablet, as powerful as a laptop. So while you can do the tablet basics — streaming, internet browsing, reading, and gaming — it can handle more. For creatives, that means graphic design, illustration, and photo and video editing.

Lessons learned from visiting an AI-powered store

A novel experiment tested how AI ran a store, and the ability of artificial intelligence to complete more important tasks.

A broken mug sits on a desk in the Division of Digital Psychiatry at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. Printed across the surviving ceramic shard are the words: "This was made by AI." Our team thinks that the story of this mug neatly captures the hype, hope, and even harm surrounding artificial intelligence. 

At the Division of Digital Psychiatry, we spend our days studying how digital technologies are shaping mental healthcare. Through our research, clinical work, and MindBench.ai — a collaboration with the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) — we examine how AI systems respond when people seek mental health information, support, and guidance. The project brings together researchers, clinicians, and NAMI's nationwide community of people with lived experience, families, advocates, and volunteers to better understand where AI tools are helpful, where they fall short, and how they can be evaluated safely and transparently.

So, we were naturally curious when we heard chatter in the news about Andon Market, the first retail store run entirely by an AI agent named Luna. As AI systems take on increasingly autonomous roles, the questions raised by an AI-run storefront are not entirely different from those emerging in mental healthcare. Where should these systems be trusted? When should humans remain in the loop? And what happens when things go wrong?

The project comes from Andon Labs, whose website describes its mission as building "autonomous organizations without humans in the loop," an endeavor that may have implications for mental health in the near future. But after our experience, we think Luna could have used a few more humans in that loop of hers. 

According to Andon Labs, Luna was given a bank account with $100,000, a lease, and broad responsibility for operating a profitable business in San Francisco. Luna handles staffing decisions, inventory management, marketing materials, and all things in between. The goal is to see how much of a real-world organization can be delegated to an AI system and what questions arise when they try.

It is an experiment that raises many of the same questions now emerging in mental healthcare. As AI systems become more capable, where should they be trusted? When should they be supervised? Where do they fail? And what infrastructure do we need to evaluate and understand the risks of using these tools in places where the stakes are much higher than shopping? 

In her few months of "life," Luna has made some, dare we say, creative choices. She ordered 1,000 toilet bowl covers for the employee bathroom. Naturally, she stocked the store with the extra 999. She also tried to hire a painter for the store, which showed initiative, except the painter was based in Afghanistan. Drop-down menus on Yelp are hard for an LLM to get past the letter "A," it seems.

Still, the hype around the project left us with high expectations when we decided to try the shopping experience for ourselves. What an autonomous storefront looks like now may offer some glimpse into how close we are to AI autonomy in more sensitive spaces.

We decided to buy two mugs that featured Luna's subtle smiley-face logo. If Luna were real, what happened next would not leave her smiling.

Purchasing these two mugs was more difficult than selecting them from the far end of the metal shelf. Customers place orders by picking up a wired blue telephone and speaking directly to Luna. We tried to make our purchase, but the AI system was down, and the order could not be completed. This was our first failure point. It was akin to arriving at a mental health clinic and finding it devoid of any clinicians, leaving the patient completely helpless.

The human employee (yes we live in an era where we need to make that clear) tried to reset the internet and even Luna. But she was offline or off somewhere. We offered to pay by cash, credit card, PayPal, or Venmo, but the human employee was not authorized to accept any of them.

Determined to get the mugs, we followed up by email. What should have been a straightforward customer service interaction (one of the tasks AI is destined to revolutionize) turned into roughly two weeks of back-and-forth. Payment links failed, instructions became confused, and at various points, Luna had forgotten to respond entirely. If this were Dr. Luna and we were the patient, this would again be a critical point of failure. Regardless, it was perhaps a test of sheer perseverance.

Eventually, persistence prevailed. The order was processed, the mugs were shipped, and it appeared that the experiment had reached its happy ending — until the box arrived. Picking up the box made a song of broken pieces, foreshadowing bad news.

The mugs were wrapped in two sheets of tissue paper, then placed together in a brown bag, which was taped shut and placed in a larger cardboard box. Inside was a pile of broken mugs. A mug is a fragile thing to pack, but we are well aware that mental healthcare and the well-being of patients are even more fragile. Even Luna was no longer subtly smiling on one of the mugs; the reality of the real world and shipping had chipped off her subtle grin.

Luna's stakes were mugs, and she still managed to fumble every step of the process. The thing is, if you had asked us to design a perfect illustration of what it looks like when an AI system fails someone in mental health, this would fit pretty close to it: the unreachable first contact, the broken intake, the contradictory guidance, the forgotten silences, and an outcome that left patients who entered without help and even perhaps some harm.

We went to Andon Market to see what AI running a store looked like, and left with a memorable saga and eventually two broken mugs. Luna does not claim to be a therapist, but the parallels are potent. Much of the conversation around AI swings between extremes, but the reality is more nuanced as these systems are remarkably capable in some contexts and surprisingly fragile in others.

Within digital mental health, AI offers enormous potential to expand access to information, services, and mental health support, but their failures can scale just as quickly. Rather than relying on what we are told about AI, we need to put it to the test and see what happens. Luna did not cause us harm, and rather amused us, but it's easy to imagine people soon turning to AI-managed systems for mental health, where the idea is fantastic but the reality is also chipped and broken.

For us, the broken mug has become an unexpectedly useful reminder of why our work in the Division of Digital Psychiatry is important. It sits in the lab as a small artifact of failure from an ambitious AI autonomy experiment. It is also a reminder that capability and reliability are not the same thing.

As AI tools are already being used in mental healthcare, and we look towards a future of increasingly autonomous systems, we must develop ways to safely evaluate them before they also set up storefronts and take on expanded duties. We don’t plan to ask Luna for new mugs and will be keeping the fragments as relics of the early days of AI autonomy and a tangible parable of hype, hope, and real-world considerations for deploying AI.

Best Prime Day laptop deal

Read Mashable's full review of the Microsoft Surface Laptop 7.

Senior Shopping Reporter Haley Henschel says, "We loved the Surface Laptop 7 back when it launched in 2024. While its CPU isn't the freshest anymore, it still impresses as a whole: It features a 23-hour battery life, a microSDXC card slot, and a 2.5K touchscreen that's brighter and smoother than a 15-inch MacBook Air's screen.

Amazon's amazing Prime Day deal on this 15-inch model comes just a week after Microsoft announced the very similar Surface Laptop 8 (which isn't on sale just yet). It's currently listed for just $1,229.99 — a whopping 44% off its regular retail price of $2,099.99. I wouldn't be surprised if it disappears long before Prime Day ends, considering the exact same model sold out at Best Buy after dropping to $1,699.99 there."

Best Prime Day DJI deal

DJI's entire fleet of gadgets is on sale this Prime Day, and this deal on its DJI Mini 3 is a standout. Amazon has it discounted to $269, or 36% off — its lowest price ever. (It was $30 more expensive during Amazon's Big Spring Sale in March.) This lightweight entry-level drone can shoot 4K video and fly for almost 40 minutes on a single charge.

Keep in mind that, thanks to the U.S. drone ban and DJI's problems with the FCC, the company's drones and new releases are sold through third-party sellers on Amazon. Not only that, but now that we're halfway through Prime Day, many DJI drones are already out of stock.

Best Prime Day home and kitchen deal

Mashable reporter Samantha Mangino called this appliance a lot of fun in her review, and a sweltering hot summer is exactly the right time to try it. Grab one while it's on sale and discover why TikTok is still obsessed with this device.

We should note that the Creami's sibling, the Ninja Slushi, quickly sold out at Amazon during Prime Day, so don't procrastinate if you have your eye on this Ninja ice cream maker!

Nothing Phone (4b) announcement incoming — but theres a caveat

More information about the Nothing Phone (4b) is coming very soon.

A new Nothing Phone is on the way and you won't have to wait too long to find out more.

On Thursday, the British design firm posted a video that ostensibly showcases some teaser images of their upcoming smartphone, Phone (4b). The post, published on X, mentions July 7, all but announcing that's when the official unveiling will take place.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Wondering what the difference is between this Nothing Phone (4b) and the Nothing Phone (4a), currently on sale? Essentially the Phone (4b) will be a more affordable model of the Phone (4a) — just as Google makes the Pixel 10 and the lower-priced Pixel 10a model.

The video that Nothing posted does show some design differences between the Nothing Phone (4b) and the Nothing Phone (4a).

"Phone (4b) blends a unibody design and clear camera bump of Phone (4a) Pro with the Glyph Bar from Phone (4a) to create a minimal rear design that feels distinctly Nothing and smooth in your hands," Nothing wrote on the community forum on its website.

Notably, the Phone (4b) teased in the video comes in a blue color option.

Mashable previously reviewed the Nothing Phone (4a) Pro and lauded the features the company managed to pack into a $499 smartphone. It'll be interesting to see how much lower Nothing goes with its cheaper phone model.

Bad news for Nothing Phone fans in the U.S., however. According to 9to5Google, Nothing does not plan to sell the Phone (4b) in North America.

The best Prime Day MacBook deals look even better after Apples price changes: Grab a Neo for $590

The best Prime Day MacBook deals include a $949 MacBook Air and a $1,549 MacBook Pro. Take advantage of these discounts before Apple's price increases come into effect.

Prime Day 2026 is here — and so are the price hikes that Apple teased last week. As of June 25, select Apple products are at least $100 more expensive than before. That includes the full MacBook lineup: the MacBook Air, the MacBook Pro, and even the budget MacBook Neo. Bummer.

Now for some good news. While Apple's price changes are now live in the Apple Store, Amazon hasn't adjusted its own listings to match them just yet. In other words, the best Prime Day MacBook deals we've seen so far this week are still up for grabs, and looking even better than before.

Take the MacBook Neo. The base model is marked down to $589.99 this Prime Day. Originally, that was only a $9.01 discount on its $599 MSRP. But as of today, it's really a $109.01 savings given the Apple Store's new starting price of $699.

MacBook prices as low as these will probably be very rare going forward, so if you're on the fence about an upgrade, I would absolutely recommend shopping Amazon's Prime Day MacBook deals. I've rounded up the best ones below and will continue to update my list based on current pricing and availability. (I'm marking any record-lows I encounter with a 🔥.)

I'd also encourage you to check out competing retailers' anti-Prime Day sales — namely, Best Buy's Tech Fest. It's matching a lot Prime Day MacBook offers, so if they sell out on Amazon, you've got a fallback plan.

Best Prime Day MacBook Neo deal

Apple's colorful new budget laptop is faster than most Windows laptops in basic single-core workloads, and it has the same premium build quality as Apple's other MacBooks. Amazon has been selling the base configuration for $589.99 (normally $599) for a few weeks now. That hasn't been a great deal until today, when the Apple Store bumped its price by $100. Once Amazon matches Apple's MSRP, it will only be available at $599 for college students, their parents, and teachers on a regular basis, so this is a real last-chance steal. Take your pick from four colors: silver, blush, indigo, and citrus.

Read Mashable's full review of the Apple MacBook Neo.

Best Prime Day MacBook Air deal

The new M5 MacBook Air is a class-leading ultraportable with a zippy processor, two full workdays' worth of battery life, and a premium, polished design. (Haptic touchpad? Check. Crisp Liquid Retina display? Check. Speakers that sound better than anything you'll find on the average Windows laptop? Checkity-check.) The 13-inch base configuration is on sale for $949 this Prime Day, which is $150 off its $1,099 sticker price. It will soon cost $1,299, or $350 more, once Apple's price hikes are reflected on Amazon.

Best Buy was matching this deal at the time of writing. Both retailers have all four colors in stock: starlight, silver, midnight, and sky blue.

Best Prime Day MacBook Pro deal

The M5 MacBook Pro is a creative-forward upgrade with a gorgeous 120Hz Liquid Retina XDR (mini-LED) display, a longer battery life, and extra ports like an SDXC card slot. It also has built-in fans, unlike the MacBook Air, so you're less likely to experience thermal throttling when you run demanding software on it. Amazon has the base model listed for $1,549 this Prime Day — another $150 savings. (Best Buy is also price-matching Amazon here.) It will soon cost $1,999, or a whopping $450 more.

Which MacBook should you buy?

The MacBook Air is my favorite MacBook for most people, including most college students and office workers. The MacBook Neo is my top pick for frugal buyers, casual users, and younger students (grades K through 12). The MacBook Pro is my No. 1 choice for content creators and other creative professionals, especially photo and video editors.

The FCC's proposed changes to Know Your Consumer rules are generating alarm among privacy experts.

A proposed change to FCC rules may make anonymous burner phones a thing of the past.

That's because the federal regulatory agency is introducing plans that would require the collection of names, addresses, and government identification numbers for nearly every U.S. cellphone user in a bid to curb escalating robocalls and scams.

The proposal mandates phone companies connect identifying information to numbers originating on their networks, including pre-paid phones, and flag suspicious activity associated with devices, such as cryptocurrency payments and phone numbers not listed to residential addresses. That information would then be officially verified and stored for up to four years if the number is deemed suspicious.

Initial public comment on the proposal closes today. The FCC will then open up a reply period, with a deadline of July 27, before making its final decision. There's no timeline yet for implementing the new rules should the agency proceed.

The proposal was first introduced in May and stoked immediate concerns among consumer privacy advocates. In the month since, other civil society advocates have warned that expanding Know-Your-Consumer rules could spell disaster for a wide range of privacy seekers in the digital age.

Domestic violence resource groups, for example, have filed statements to the FCC arguing that data privacy and the use of anonymous devices is an essential safety tool for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking. According to the National Network to End Domestic Violence, the FCC's proposed red flags "implicate practices that survivors routinely use to protect themselves from being monitored or harmed by abusive actors.”

In addition, the new rules could effectively disconnect millions of Americans who do not have government-issued identification, including undocumented residents.

"For decades, civil libertarians have looked overseas at authoritarian countries where the government requires people to register to get a mobile phone to ensure they can be tracked. We never thought that would happen here," Jay Stanley, ACLU senior policy analyst, told CNET.

Squirt is bringing back its face-to-face video chat feature

Tired of scrolling past the exact same faces? Squirt just added a grid to track new users, along with a revamped face-to-face video chat.

Grindr's been peeving off its customers, and other dating apps are starting to take note. Since its "AI era" announcement and the introduction of an astronomically priced premium tier, Grindr's competitors have stepped up to the plate to give people what they want: hookups, now.

Squirt, a cruising site that's been around since 1999 BG (Before Grindr), launched its first iOS app (SQ Dating) in April, and now it's adding new features to encourage you to download the app and check out the site, including a revamped "Video Chat" experience and a "New Guys" grid.

According to a press release shared with Mashable, "Video Chat" has been rebuilt for a "smoother, faster, and more reliable 1:1 experience." It's easier to jump between the web and mobile app; you can also switch between your front and rear cameras and receive incoming call notifications (no matter what page you're on) across both platforms.

"Bringing back Video Chat gives members a more immediate way to flirt, tease, verify chemistry, and decide what happens next," Andrew Nolan, Head of Dating Businesses at Squirt's parent company, Pink Triangle Press, said in a statement. "Whether they're browsing on the website or using the app, we want the experience to feel direct, easy, and hot.”

To make it even easier to see who's brand-new to the app, the company launched a "New Guys" grid. This is essentially a grid of guys who've joined in the last 30 days or who've been online "recently" and explicitly flag that they want to meet up right now — which helps if you're tired of seeing the same local faces over and over again.

Squirt also says it's planning to add an integrated "Map" feature later this summer (taking a page from Sniffies' book, I see) to give you another way to connect with nearby profiles. You'll find it under "Dating" on the app and "Cruising Listings" on desktop, where you can check into locations and browse nearby activity.

Prime Day 2026 live: Were vetting the latest Amazon deals in real-time

Get live updates on the first Prime Day of 2026. We found record-low prices on Samsung TVs, DJI drones, Kindles, Sony headphones, and more.

Amazon's annual Prime Day sale runs from June 23 to 26 this year. That's right, Amazon has shifted the event from mid-July to late June. And if you've been following our coverage, then you know we've already passed the halfway point.

Without a doubt, Prime Day 2026 is one of the biggest sales events on the shopping calendar, second only to Black Friday. So far, this huge event is going hard on just about every category: We're seeing significant savings on Apple gadgets, limited-time price cuts on Bose headphones, and all-time lows on Samsung OLED TVs and gaming monitors. Our professional deal hunters are ready to help you save, and we're cross-checking prices at Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart to make sure you get the lowest prices.

As we approach the end of the Amazon sale, we've lined up all the best deals from Prime Day. Keep scrolling for the full schedule of events, the latest live updates, price drops, low-stock alerts, and news.

Amazon brought back the Black Friday $10 Fire TV Stick deal for Prime Day

The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Select is back down to $9.99 for select customers on Prime Day. That's the best streaming stick deal by far.

SAVE $30: As of June 25, the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Select is only $9.99 for select customers this Prime Day with the on-page coupon code FTVSELECT. That's 75% off its list price and matches its lowest price ever from Black Friday.

---

One of Mashable readers' favorite deals from Black Friday is back for round two on Prime Day 2026. The newest Amazon Fire TV Stick with 4K quality is 75% off for select customers, and it's a deal worth shouting about.

As of June 25, the Fire TV Stick 4K Select is just $9.99 with the on-page coupon code FTVSELECT. That's $30 off its list price of $39.99 and matches its best price ever. That's also cheaper than the Fire TV Stick HD (which does not offer 4K quality). Just be sure to hit "redeem" next to the code on the product page before you add it to your cart.

It's easily the best streaming stick deal overall, but it's only available for select customers. Unfortunately, there's a chance you may not see the on-page coupon. We don't know the rhyme or reason why Amazon does this. If you do see the extra savings beneath the Prime logo, you're one of the lucky ones.

While the 4K Select is the newest Fire TV Stick in Amazon's lineup that offers 4K quality with HDR10+ support, it's important to note that it's also the first to feature the new Linux-based Vega operating system. That's a good thing and a bad thing. It's great if you found the old operating system a bit laggy like we did. But if you're someone who likes to sideload apps, this streaming stick blocks that option; you'll need one of the older models, like the 4K Plus or 4K Max for that.

Otherwise, it still offers the plug-and-play design you know and love, plus support for Amazon Luna, Xbox Game Pass, NordVPN, IPVanish, Alexa+, and Amazon Kids+.

MacBooks and iPads just got more expensive. Lock in Prime Day Apple deals before its too late.

The best Prime Day Apple deals include record lows on the Apple Watch Series 11. It's also your last chance to buy MacBooks before a price increase.

If you're shopping for some new Apple gadgets this Prime Day, your timing couldn't be better: Today, Apple raised some of its prices because of the global RAM shortage. AirPods and Apple Watches are unaffected (for now), but all MacBooks and iPads are now at least $100 more expensive than they were yesterday — even the budget MacBook Neo.

Here's the good news: The price changes haven't gone into effect on Amazon yet, only in the Apple Store. So, procrastinate at your own risk. For now, you can still shop Prime Day deals on Apple Watches, AirPods, iPads, and MacBooks. That includes a record-low price on the M4 iPad Air. (It's only $519 on Amazon right now, down from $599, but the Apple Store is charging $749.)

We'll continue to monitor Amazon's best Prime Day Apple deals through the end of the week, and we'll make note if/when Amazon adjusts Apple products' MSRPs. For now, the deals we've gathered reflect MacBooks and iPads' original launch prices (before today's increase).

We're also checking prices at other major retailers like Best Buy and Walmart to make sure you're truly getting the lowest prices available. If they manage to beat one of Amazon's Prime Day Apple deals, we'll note that and link to the competition.

Note: Products marked with a 🔥 are at their lowest-ever price. Deals marked with a strikethrough weren't available at the time of writing, but could return later this week.

Best Prime Day AirPods deal

Apple's stylish over-ear headphones were updated in April with the H2 chip, bringing better noise cancellation and support for software features like Adaptive Audio, Conversation Awareness, and Live Translation. This Prime Day, Amazon has them marked down to just $399 — a 27% savings and their lowest price ever (by a lot). This is a shockingly good deal, considering the original AirPods Max took several years to hit the same price. Only Walmart's managed to match it so far.

Best Prime Day Apple Watch deal

The Apple Watch Series 11 has a new record-low price for Prime Day. Amazon marked it down to just $279, which is 30% off its usual $399 MSRP. (It was $20 more expensive during Amazon's Big Spring Sale a couple of months ago.) Apple's latest flagship wearable supports features like hypertension notifications and Sleep Score. Compared to its predecessor, it has a more scratch-resistant display and a longer battery life. Choose from four different case and band combinations, including one with the new space gray finish.

Best Prime Day iPad deal

The M4 iPad Air is our favorite Apple tablet for most people, especially artists and other creatives, combining a beautiful design with laptop-level performance at a reasonable price. Right now, it's more reasonable than usual: The 11-inch base model with 128GB of storage has fallen to a record low of $519 for Prime Day, which is 13% off its current sticker price on Amazon. (Pick up an on-sale Apple Pencil or Magic Keyboard while you're at it, too.) If it sells out on Amazon, you can score the same deal at Best Buy.

Best Prime Day MacBook deal

If you need a new laptop that's sleek, portable, and powerful, the MacBook Air is sooo easy to recommend. Its thin all-aluminum design (available in four colors) features a haptic touchpad, a 12MP webcam, and a punchy Liquid Retina display. Its M5 chip makes it faster than most Windows laptops in just about any scenario. The 13-inch base model currently costs $1,099 on Amazon, but it's down to $949 for Prime Day. It's now $50 away from its record-low price from Memorial Day. You'll find the same deal at Best Buy this week.

Best Prime Day AirTag deal

Here's our first-ever discount on the second-generation AirTag, Apple's recently updated Bluetooth tracker. It doesn't look any different from the original version that launched in 2021, but it has a louder speaker and a much wider range. Grab an $89 four-pack for the best value (normally $99) — that works out to $22.25 per AirTag. If you only need one or two, you'll pay $24 for them individually during Prime Day (typically $29). Best Buy and Walmart were matching both of those deals, FYI.

Apple price increases arrive: How much MacBooks and iPads will cost you now

The ongoing global memory shortage has taken another very prominent victim: Apple.

Apple isn't immune to RAMageddon, either.

Reuters reported something on Thursday that many in the tech world had been expecting for weeks: Apple is raising prices on many of its devices. So far, iPhones and AirPods are exempt from this policy, but MacBooks, Macs, and iPads (among others) have all been affected. Here is the full list of price increases, as far as we are aware:

• Entry-level iPad: $449 (increase of $100)

• iPad Mini: $599 (increase of $100)

• 11-inch iPad Air: $749 (increase of $150)

• 13-inch iPad Air: $949 (increase of $200)

• 11-inch iPad Pro: $1,199 (increase of $200)

• 13-inch iPad Pro: $1,499 (increase of $200)

• MacBook Neo: $699 (increase of $100)

• 13-inch MacBook Air: $1,299 (increase of $200)

• 15-inch MacBook Air: $1,499 (increase of $200)

• iMac: $1,499 (increase of $200)

• M5 MacBook Pro: $1,999 (increase of $300)

• M5 Max MacBook Pro: $4,099 (increase of $500

• M5 Pro MacBook Pro: $2,499 (increase of $300)

• M4 Max Mac Studio: $2,499 (increase of $500)

• M3 Ultra Mac Studio: $5,299 (increase of $1,300)

• Apple TV 4K: $199 (increase of $70)

• HomePod: $349 (increase of $50)

• Apple Vision Pro headset: $3,699 (increase of $200)

This obviously isn't great if you're a fan of Apple hardware or of relatively affordable electronics in general. As with all other recent tech price increases, you can blame it on the rapid expansion of data centers for AI, which has put a premium on memory components and made it harder to manufacture basically every electronic device.

The MacBook Neo is getting a price bump just months after its launch, when it was heralded as finally bringing us an affordable MacBook.

Last chance: Get the MacBook Neo for $589 at Amazon before prices go up for good

Apple is raising prices on the MacBook Neo. This budget laptop is still available at Amazon for $589.99 for a little while longer.

We'll cut to the chase: As of Thursday, June 25, Apple is officially raising prices on its new budget laptop, the MacBook Neo. At the online Apple store, prices on the MacBook Neo have increased by $100.

However, for a little while longer, you can still order this laptop at its original price at Amazon, while supplies last.

This colorful starter laptop launched in March with a starting price of $599, and Amazon quickly undercut the competition (and Apple itself) by selling the computer for $589.99. (A version with extra storage and Touch ID costs $699.99, or $689.99 at Amazon.)

The MacBook Neo was a shot across the bow of the Windows laptop market, and there's truly nothing else like it at its price point. However, the $599 MacBook Neo was apparently too good for this world.

Last week, Apple CEO Tim Cook warned of impending price increases caused by the global memory shortage, aka RAMageddon. As the AI industry buys up memory components, manufacturers have been raising prices on tech products across the board in 2026. Apple held out longer than most of its rivals, but as of this morning, the company has implemented price increases on MacBooks, Mac devices, and iPads. Price increases on iPhones could follow shortly.

However, as I mentioned, it will take some time before the new prices are reflected at retailers like Amazon and Best Buy.

So, once again, this is almost certainly your last chance to get the MacBook Neo at its original launch price.

Do not pass go. Do not waste $100. Head to Amazon and add the Neo to your cart while you still can.

We found 15+ Prime Day deals on MicroSD and portable SSDs: How to beat RAMageddon

With RAMageddon, memory prices are going way up. Shop rare Prime Day deals on portable SSDs, HDDs, and microSDs from Samsung, SanDisk, and Lexar.

Thanks to the global memory crisis known as RAMageddon, prices on memory products like hard drives, MicroSD cards, and portable SSDs have continued to climb.

Experts interviewed by Mashable say the memory crisis will get worse before it gets better, so Prime Day marks a rare opportunity to find deals on these products.

MicroSD, portable SSDs, and hard drives are a staple of Prime Day and more relevant than ever in light of RAMageddon. We did some digging and found the best deals in the memory category.

Multiple participants are not permitted to share the same email address. Should multiple users of the same e-mail account or mobile phone number, as applicable, enter the Sweepstakes and a dispute thereafter arises regarding the identity of the entrant, the Authorized Account Holder of said e-mail account or mobile phone account at the time of entry will be considered the entrant. “Authorized Account Holder” is defined as the natural person who is assigned an e-mail address or mobile phone number by an Internet access provider, on-line service provider, telephone service provider or other organization which is responsible for assigned e-mail addresses, phone numbers or the domain associated with the submitted e-mail address. Proof of submission of an entry shall not be deemed proof of receipt by the website administrator for online entries. When applicable, the website administrator’s computer will be deemed the official time keeping device for the Sweepstakes promotion. Entries will be disqualified if found to be incomplete and/or if Sponsor determines, in its sole discretion, that multiple entries were submitted by the same entrant in violation of the Sweepstakes Rules. 

WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION: Sponsor shall select the prize winner(s) (collectively, the “Winner”) on or about July 3, 2026 (“Selection Date”) by random drawing or other randomized process from among all eligible entries. The Winner will be notified via direct message or reply through the Instagram account used to enter, and will be required to provide a valid email address and mailing address in order to claim the Prize. Notification of the Winner shall be deemed to have occurred immediately upon sending of the notification by Sponsor. Selected winner(s) will be required to respond (as directed) to the notification within 3 business days of attempted notification. The only entries that will be considered eligible entries are entries received by Sponsor within the Sweepstakes Period. Sponsor’s database computer is the official time-keeping device for the Sweepstakes. The odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received. The Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to choose only two (2) alternative winners in the event that that a possible winner has been disqualified, fails to respond timely to the notification, or is deemed ineligible for any reason. In the case the alternate winners are also disqualified, fail to respond timely to the notification, or are deemed ineligible for any reason, Ziff Davis shall not be obligated to pick any further alternate winners for the Sweepstakes and the prize(s) shall remain un-awarded.

PRIZE: One (1) Prize Winner will receive the following prize (collectively, the “Prize”):

• An Acer Swift 16 AI, valued at approximately one thousand two hundred and fifty dollars ($1,250 USD).

No more than the stated number of prize(s) will be awarded, and all prize(s) listed above will be awarded. Actual retail value of the Prize may vary due to market conditions. The difference in value of the Prize as stated above and value at time of notification of the Winner, if any, will not be awarded. No cash or prize substitution is permitted, except at the discretion of Sponsor. The Prize is non-transferrable. If the Prize cannot be awarded due to circumstances beyond the control of Sponsor, a substitute Prize and/or cash value of equal or greater retail value will be awarded; provided, however, that if a Prize is awarded but remains unclaimed or is forfeited by the Winner, the Prize may not be re-awarded, in Sponsor’s sole discretion. In the event that more than the stated number of prize(s) becomes available for any reason, Sponsor reserves the right to award only the stated number of prize(s) by a random drawing among all legitimate, un-awarded, eligible prize claims. 

ACCEPTANCE AND DELIVERY OF THE PRIZE: The Winner will be required to verify his or her address and may be required to execute the following document(s) before a notary public and return them within 72 hours (3) days (or a shorter time if required by exigencies) of receipt of such documents: an affidavit of eligibility, a liability release, and (where imposing such condition is legal) a publicity release covering eligibility, liability, advertising, publicity and media appearance issues (collectively, the “Prize Claim Documents”). If an entrant is unable to verify the information submitted with their entry, the entrant will automatically be disqualified and their prize, if any, will be forfeited. The Prize will not be awarded until all such properly executed and notarized Prize Claim Documents are returned to Sponsor. Prize(s) won by an eligible entrant who is a minor in his or her state of residence will be awarded to minor’s parent or legal guardian, who must sign and return all required Prize Claim Documents. In the event the Prize Claim Documents are not returned within the specified period, an alternate Winner may be selected by Sponsor for such Prize.

So many Lego sets are 20% off for Prime Day: We found 103 deals worth shopping

We found 100+ great Prime Day Lego deals at Amazon. Popular Star Wars, Botanicals, Technic, and Harry Potter sets are on sale for 20% off.

Any Lego fan knows that getting into the brick-building hobby isn't cheap. That's why it's a good idea to take advantage of Amazon's Prime Day deals on Lego sets. The members-only megasale is still going strong through tomorrow, June 26, so there's still plenty of time to shop.

The running theme of this year's Prime Day Lego deals seems to be "20% off." That's the discount Amazon's given to dozens of builds across the Lego lineup, including many popular Star Wars, Botanicals, Icons, Technic, Art, Super Mario, and Harry Potter sets. Lots of them have fallen to new record-low prices; three now cost less than $10.

Before you ask: None of the Lego Pokémon sets or new Lego Smart Play sets are on sale right now, but we're monitoring them closely in case that changes.

Read on for our guide to the absolute best Prime Day Lego deals you can snag on Amazon this week. (We'll keep updating it as Prime Day progresses, so check back.) We've also thrown in four great Lego deals you can score elsewhere: Walmart's Deals event features some sets that were out of stock or more expensive on Amazon.

Best Prime Day Lego Technic deal

The Lego Artemis Space Launch System is a bestseller on Lego's website that almost never goes on sale there. This Prime Day, it's 20% off on Amazon: You'll pay $47.99 instead of its usual $59.99. That's a new all-time low (and a pretty sweet deal for a pretty big, pretty topical set). As a bonus, it comes with four astronaut nanofigures.

More Lego Technic deals

• Lego Technic Chevrolet Corvette Stingray — $47.99 $59.99 (save $12)

• Lego Technic 2 Fast 2 Furious — $111.99 $139.99 (save $28)

• Lego Technic Liebherr Crawler Crane — $489.99 $655.19 (save $165.20)

Best Prime Day Lego Star Wars deal

No, it's not a revival of the huge $559.99 Imperial Star Destroyer that Lego retired. But it is still an 18-inch-long brick version of one of the most iconic ships in the Star Wars franchise. It comes with seven mini-figures, and is particularly coveted for one rare mini-fig: Cal Kestis. It usually retails for $159.99, but Prime members pay just $111.99 this week (a 30% savings). That's a record-low price, beating its 2025 Cyber Monday deal by $8.

Best Prime Day Lego Botanicals deal

This brickified flower bouquet is full price (and backordered) on Lego's website, but it's on sale (and set for next-day delivery) on Amazon. It's marked down to $33.59 there for Prime Day, which is 44% off its $59.99 MSRP — its biggest discount ever. This adult-oriented set contains 756 pieces and builds into roses, poppies, and daisies, among other flowers. No watering required.

Amazon Fire TV Sticks are definitely running the show (no surprise there), but there are a few noteworthy deals from Roku, Google, and more in the mix as well. Here are the best live Prime Day streaming stick deals to shop.

Psst: Looking for deals on streaming services? Check out my guide to the best Prime Day streaming deals overall. And be sure to follow along with all shopping updates in Mashable's Prime Day hub so you don't miss any great deals.

Best Prime Day streaming stick deal

Why we like it

The Fire TV Stick 4K Plus is the most affordable Fire TV Stick in Amazon's lineup that offers 4K quality with HDR10+ support, as well as Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. It still features the old Android-based operating system, which can be slightly laggy, but overall it's well-loved by many longtime users. It also still allows for sideloading apps if you're into that. (Starting with the 4K Select model, all future Fire TV Sticks will switch to the Linux-based Vega operating system).

While this deal required an on-page coupon ahead of Prime Day, now that the shopping event is in full swing, all Prime members can score 50% off this streaming stick. This is the lowest price on record.

GTA VI Online release date: What we know so far

'Grand Theft Auto VI' is almost upon us, but only the single-player portion. Will we get an online mode?

Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders started on Thursday, with lots of folks presumably eager to spend as much as $100 on the hotly anticipated game before its November release. But one major question remains: What's happening with the online mode?

The GTA Online component of Grand Theft Auto V has kept that 13-year-old game relevant across three console generations, with a recent leak suggesting Rockstar makes as much as $500 million annually from microtransactions alone. One would think that means GTA VI will have a similar online offering available at launch, but that isn't the case. Per a Rockstar statement given to IGN, as well as all available marketing language on digital storefronts, GTA VI is a "single-player experience."

That means there will be no online component at launch, nor has Rockstar announced any intention of adding one after launch. Sadly, that is all the concrete information anyone can provide right now.

However, that doesn't mean all hope is lost. It's worth remembering that both GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 launched as solo experiences and got online modes later, though it was only a matter of months in both cases. Given that Rockstar hasn't even said if there will be a new GTA Online experience for VI, it's probably safe to assume the wait will be longer this time.

The fact that the existing GTA Online is so wildly successful (with no signs of slowing down) means Rockstar isn't necessarily incentivized to make a new one right away. It also means Rockstar has to decide if it wants to keep two different GTA Online experiences running at the same time, should GTA VI ever get one. As IGN noted, Grand Theft Auto publisher Take-Two currently supports two different NBA 2K Online games in the Asian market; the first launched in 2012 and its sequel in 2017, but they're both popular enough to coexist to this day.

Unfortunately, we don't have a definitive answer on when we'll get a new GTA Online mode tied to the new game, but hey, single-player games aren't so bad. I'm sure there will be plenty of hours of entertainment to be had in GTA VI as it is.

The Bear reheats The Pitts nachos in a baffling Season 5: Review

"The Bear"'s fifth and final outing sticks a wobbly landing, with a season that takes place over the span of one day. Review.

The stakes going into The Bear Season 5 are enormous.

Within the show, Sydney (Ayo Edebiri), Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), and Natalie (Abby Elliott) are reeling from Carmy's (Jeremy Allen White) shocking Season 4 decision to quit the industry. Outside the world of the show, The Bear is hoping to end on a high note, especially after two frustratingly self-indulgent seasons that ran in circles. So, how does The Bear go big for its final season? What spectacular trick is it hiding up its chef's jacket sleeves?

Simple. It reheats The Pitt's nachos — then artfully re-plates them and drizzles them with Michelin-worthy garnishes — by setting the season over the course of one day.

The Bear Season 5 feels an awful lot like The Pitt.

That day is the one directly following Season 4's conclusion, when the clock officially ran out for the Bear. Now, Uncle Jimmy (Oliver Platt) plans to sell the building, while Sydney, Richie, and Natalie try to get through one last service with their staff. Hopefully, this will be the one that earns them a Michelin star — that is, if a gargantuan storm doesn't interfere with their plans.

The first seven episodes of the season that were sent to critics (there are eight in total) unfold almost in real time, beginning with the staff's journeys to the Bear, then moving through prep and service. In a post-Pitt world, The Bear's choice to set its final season over one day is a confusing one, even if it ties into the show's oft-repeated mantra that "every second counts." Obviously, The Pitt isn't the only TV show set in real time. There's 24, the godfather of the genre, as well as recent additions like Hijack. Yet The Bear's thematic focus on stressful work environments, mental health, and work-life balance makes the comparison to The Pitt near-impossible to ignore. Given that The Bear felt like a breath of fresh air in its first season, it's a shame that the core conceit of its last outing is so inseparable from another acclaimed series.

The Bear Season 5 reminds us the show is at its best in the kitchen.

However, the single-day structure does offer The Bear a chance to go back to the basics of what made it tick so well in the first place. For starters, you won't find any standalone character- or event-focused episodes this season. While some of these kinds of episodes, like Season 2's "Forks" and "Fishes," remain series highs, later examples, like Season 4's "Bears," became the clearest proof of The Bear's overindulgence (especially its distracting reliance on stunt casting).

Instead, Season 5 hones in on this last service with a concentration that mirrors its characters' near-obsession with getting the night right. That tighter focus whips up a stressful pressure cooker that recalls Season 1's most harrowing, scream-filled moments, and you can always count on The Bear to alleviate some of that stress with a heaping dash of competency porn from its team. But the real winner here is The Bear's food scenes. In Season 3 and especially Season 4, The Bear spent more time outside the kitchen, and therefore away from cooking. By spending most of Season 5 in the restaurant proper, The Bear zeroes back in on food, delivering mouth-watering sequences rooted in character and story. Each dish has deep ties to the person who made it, sometimes recalling moments from all the way back in Season 1. The ever-evolving menu and the loving way the food is shot are perhaps the best sendoffs The Bear could ask for.

Unfortunately, The Bear takes its final season as a chance to throw everything at the wall, and its sound and fury often overpower the simpler joys of the season. The storm is the largest culprit here, a too on-the-nose plot device that externalizes the restaurant's inner turmoil to an exhausting degree. Every episode begins with the rumble of thunder to remind us of the chaos raging within the Bear. Trust us, we know!

Elsewhere, a side plot where Uncle Jimmy scrambles around Chicago to sell the restaurant is an unwelcome departure from the kitchen, and the Fak brothers continue their reign of unfunny terror. (We'll never have to see them again after this season, but that's still not reward enough for having to suffer through their antics for five seasons straight.)

Most frustrating of all is the melodrama between staffers. When they're not yelling at one another, they sound like therapists spelling out The Bear's themes in the simplest of terms, and the season's condensed timeline means that most personal growth comes on far too suddenly.

Carmy's return in The Bear Season 5 undermines the show's most interesting choice.

Speaking of growth, let's talk about Carmy. By the end of Season 4, he made the bold but healthy choice to step away from the Bear for a bit. In Season 5, though, he's right back in the kitchen, albeit ceding control to Sydney like he said he would.

I understand that you can't do a full season of The Bear — especially not the last season — without Carmy. But to have him return the literal day after his game-changing decision totally undermines Season 4's ending, which is the most interesting move the show had made in two seasons. Here was a chance to see Carmy without the kitchen, and the Bear's kitchen without Carmy. How would that environment look? How would each character adapt to his choice? The Bear doesn't give anyone the chance to find out, reverting to an uneasy equilibrium far too quickly. (The show stresses he'll be leaving the restaurant after this service, but that's an empty promise in a final season.)

The Bear's semi-backtrack on Carmy's decision loops back around to Season 5's single-day structure. Carmy actually leaving is something that would take a greater time span to explore in depth, whereas the "last service" angle is a flashier conceit guaranteed to pull at the heartstrings as the show says goodbye. The two ideas fundamentally chafe against one another. In the end, the latter wins out, turning The Bear's final course into a lackluster serving of confusing choices and wasted potential.

The Bear Season 5 premieres in its entirety June 25 at 9 p.m. ET on Hulu. The first two episodes air at 9 p.m. ET on FX, with a new episode airing every Thursday at 9 p.m. ET.

The World Cup is causing a spike in Tinder activity

Tinder is seeing an increase in swipes, likes, and matches during the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup is underway, and international tourists are obsessed with mundane American things. It seems like they're also interested in another American export: Tinder.

Compared to the same time last year, the dating app has seen increases in Swipes, Likes, and matches across World Cup host cities. The U.S. is seeing over a 15 percent increase in users, around a 25 percent increase in Swipe activity, and nearly a 60 percent increase in matches compared to June 2025.

Mexico and Canada are feeling the love, too, with increases across the board.

The app saw an average 47 percent increase among international users in game host cities, according to internal data from June 11 to 16. This is across host cities and match days, and is after accounting for ordinary summer travel. Some of the strongest activity jumps include +80 percent in Monterrey around the Sweden vs. Tunisia game, +74 percent in Guadalajara around Korea Republic vs. Czechia, and +47 percent in Boston around Iraq vs. Norway.

Domestic users are apparently feeling like driving a goal, too, with a 22 percent increase.

Tinder is also seeing increases in Passport Mode use, which lets users swipe in other locations than where they're currently based. The New York/New Jersey area, Los Angeles, and Miami are the top host metros for Passport inflow, according to Tinder. The top origin countries — excluding host countries — include Great Britain, Brazil, Thailand, and Nigeria.

It's not surprising that sports invigorates the desire for a date (or a hookup). During the Olympics, Tinder users often try to virtually enter the Olympic Village with Passport Mode.

The 55+ best Prime Day tech deals, chosen by a tech editor on a tight budget

Mashable's tech editor found the best Prime Day tech deals of 2026. Get AirPods for $99, Kindles for $85, and save 50% on Bose headphones.

I'm Mashable's tech editor, and I love my job. I get to test the coolest new tech products before anyone else, and I literally get paid to nerd out over the latest noise-cancelling headphones, smart glasses, robots, and laptops. On a more depressing note, all year long, I've been reporting on endless price hikes, but now that Prime Day 2026 has arrived, I can finally write about price drops.

So, until Prime Day ends tomorrow, I'm sharing all of the best Prime Day tech deals. Remember: Amazon Prime Day 2026 runs until Friday, June 26 at 2:59 a.m. ET, and the Mashable shopping team will be providing round-the-clock coverage until the final minutes. Only the very best Prime Day deals — the ones I'd recommend to friends and family or shop myself — make the cut.

The Mashable shopping team doesn't just pick random Amazon deals. We use price tracking tools to separate the great deals from the pretenders. We also check competing sales at sites like Best Buy, Dyson, and Target to make sure we're directing you to the lowest price at any given moment.

So, with all this in mind, here are my favorite Prime Day tech deals of 2026. I've personally tested many of these products, and I'm also leaning on recommendations from my colleagues on the Mashable tech and shopping teams.

Record-low prices on the latest Apple Watches

The latest generation of Apple Watches offered some big upgrades, and Prime Day has delivered the best-ever deal on the Apple Watch Series 11. This smartwatch has a longer battery and other key upgrades over its predecessor, and our reviewer named it a Mashable Choice product. However, if you want to go all-out on the new Apple Watch Ultra 3, this premier fitness and sleep-tracking smartwatch is also on sale at an all-time low price.

Save up to 50% on Bose headphones

Bose makes the most comfortable headphones in the world, according to both our readers and product testers. On day one of Prime Day, you can save 50% on the Bose QuietComfort noise-cancelling headphones. While the brand's flagship QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2) headphones are only $70 off, you can save big on some of the brand's other audio products.

Kindles starting at $85

Our favorite Kindles rarely go on sale, but you can always count on Prime Day for some discounts on these popular e-readers. For Prime Day, you can buy Kindle e-readers starting at $84.99, and the Kindle Paperwhite — our most-recommended Kindle and the one I use personally — is back to its record-low price of $124.99.

Amazon Echo Dot Max

I attended the launch event for the new Echo Dot Max, and I immediately liked this Alexa smart speaker for a very stupid reason: Its design reminds me of the Death Star. However, it's also a very capable speaker. Amazon added more powerful tweeters and woofers in its refreshed Echo lineup, and so this speaker isn't just useful for asking Alexa about the weather. It's also a powerful little music player, so there's no need to splurge on a pricey Sonos or Marshall home speaker system.

Save $150 on the new MacBook Air

I tested the M5 MacBook Air for Mashable when it was released earlier this year, and the longer I use it, the more I like it. If you've been waiting for Prime Day to buy this Apple laptop, then I have good news and bad news. The good news is it's on sale for $949. The bad news: Over Memorial Day Weekend, we saw prices drop to $899, but so far, Prime Day hasn't matched that offer.

So, if you can wait a little longer, you can hope for a further price drop later in the week, but don't count on it. Thanks, RAMageddon.

Anker wall chargers starting at $25.99

Looking for the best Prime Day deals under $50? I've got you.

I never travel without my Anker Prime GaN USB-C wall charger, which can charge my laptop, my phone, and my earbuds at the same time. If that seems like overkill, you can also grab Anker's most adorable wall charger with a built-in display for just $25.99 this Prime Day. Fair warning — the latter is almost sold out.

The best Apple AirPods deals

We were hoping to see slightly better Prime Day deals on AirPods, and prices could still go lower on the AirPods Pro 3 and AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation. But we can recommend shopping the AirPods Max 2 headphones and AirPods 4 at the current prices. The AirPods Max 2 have never been this cheap, though there is a slight chance the AirPods 4 will get another price drop later in the week.

Restock on memory products

Thanks to the global memory shortage, prices on SD cards, hard drives, and memory components have doubled, tripled, and quadrupled in 2026, with no end in sight. While deals on MicroSD cards and portable SSDs used to be a staple of Amazon sales, that's less true of late. Still, you can find some good deals on memory products at Amazon.

If you need a new MicroSD Express card for your Switch 2, a Samsung card is at its lowest price in months. And if you need a regular MicroSD card, you can pick up a 1TB Samsung card for $80 off. This is the first time that particular drive has gotten a discount.

Nintendo Switch 2 Choose Your Game bundle

Technically, this isn't a Prime Day tech deal, as the new Nintendo Switch 2 Choose Your Game Bundle first launched a few weeks ago. But absent a compelling offer from Nintendo, this is the best Prime Day video game deal of the moment. This bundle lets you choose between three popular titles to bundle with the console. Remember: The Switch 2 is getting a price hike later this year, so don't miss your chance to save.

Get 50% off Jackery power stations

I've loved Jackery power stations long before they became the trendy new "it" product. For creators, campers, and anyone with a safety-first mindset, these popular orange power stations keep you powered on when everyone else is off-grid. The best Prime Day tech deals always include massive savings on power stations, and this is my top pick of the sale so far.

Bose Soundlink Flex speakers

Bose has discounted its popular Soundlink Bluetooth speaker by as much as 34%. I've personally tested this line of speakers, and I can vouch for them being loud, highly portable, and easy to use. Plus, they come in a wide range of colors. That doesn't affect the sound, obviously, but it's a nice touch.

Record-low prices on Samsung TVs

I've been recommending Samsung's famous art TVs, The Frame, for many years, and they keep getting better. For Prime Day 2026, you can get these cult-favorite, ultra-thin TVs on sale at Amazon for their lowest-ever price. And if you want to splurge on a Samsung OLED TV instead, you can grab the brand's award-winning S90F OLED 65-inch TV for 29% off its list price.

Please note: As of this writing, this Amazon listing incorrectly displays a picture of the more expensive The Frame Pro model.

Best Prime Day TV deals under $500

If a premium Samsung OLED TV isn't in your budget, I feel you. It's not in mine at the moment, either. However, despite all the price hikes we've seen in 2026, prices on 55- and 65-inch TVs keep getting lower, and not just during big sales like this.

For Prime Day 2026, grab the new Amazon Ember 55-inch 4-Series Fire TV, which comes with Amazon's new art mode. You can also score an insane price on the Hisense 65-inch E6 Series QLED 4K Fire TV.

50% off Fire TV Stick Deals

The best Prime Day tech deals always include savings on the Fire TV streaming sticks, which start at just $15.99 this year. If you're not ready to buy a new smart TV, then upgrade your older model TV with these streaming sticks. During the Amazon sale, these devices are on sale for up to 54% off.

Prime Day deals on Sony headphones

The past-gen Sony XM5 headphones have 95% of the same features as the new flagship XM6 headphones, but during Prime Day, they have a much lower price. So, if you want to enjoy Sony's premium sound and best-in-class active noise cancellation, you can pick up these headphones for under $200. You can also grab the recently released XM6 wireless earbuds for their lowest price ever.

Affordable wireless earbuds

Google has officially joined the Prime Day party, with discounts up to 50% on Pixel products. Some of the best Google Pixel Prime Day deals are one-day only, like this offer on the Google Pixel Buds A-Series. If you prefer buds with a little more panache, check out the CMF Buds Pro 2 Wireless Earbuds from trendy British brand Nothing.

Headphones under $100

If your headphones budget maxes out at $100, you still have some solid options during Prime Day. Our go-to budget Sony headphones have literally never been more affordable, and you can grab the always-popular Beats Solo 4 for $99. Both pairs are 50% off for Prime members.

Save on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8

Full disclosure: I fully expect Samsung to release a new Galaxy Watch in July at the next Galaxy Unpacked event, though it's likely to get minor upgrades. All the new stuff should come via Gemini, which is also available on the excellent Galaxy Watch 8. Grab this Mashable-tested Android smartwatch while it's 38% off.

Fitness tracker deals

Right now, the Oura Ring 4 is available at unprecedented prices, with select sizes starting at just $214. (Remember, if you're not sure of your size, order the Oura Ring sizing kit first.) However, this smart ring isn't the only screen-free fitness tracker we love. You can also grab the Mashable-tested Whoop MG fitness tracker for its best-ever price, and during Prime Day, your purchase includes a 12-month Whoop membership, too.

The best gaming laptop deals

Even during Prime Day, gaming laptop deals aren't easy to find, thanks to the ongoing memory shortage. However, I do have two compelling options for you, including one with an RTX 5070 GPU. Typically, Amazon doesn't have the best laptop deals, but both of these offers come from Prime-land.

First, we have the Acer Nitro V 16S Gaming Laptop, which is equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 processor, Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 GPU, and plenty of RAM and storage. This is a more-than-capable laptop for gamers that don't want to mess around with building a PC. And if you want something with even more power, check out the ASUS ROG Strix G16 Gaming Laptop.

DJI creator tools on sale

Mashable readers and reviewers alike appreciate DJI's cult-favorite creator tools. The brand makes some of the most popular gadgets for professional content creators, and no DJI products are more popular than the TikTok-famous DJI Mic Mini and DJI Osmo Pocket 3 gimbal camera. I've personally tested both of these devices for Mashable, and their reputation is well-deserved.

Top Dyson deals

For the best Prime Day Dyson deals, we actually recommend skipping Amazon altogether. Dyson is hosting a very competitive sale at its online store, where you can find our favorite Dyson products at the lowest prices we've seen. If you've always wanted a fancy Dyson stick vacuum with the laser attachment, grab the V12 Detect Slim for $250 off. I'm also a huge fan of the original Dyson Supersonic hair dryer, which I've relied on for years to get the perfect coif. This week, you can pick it up with three attachments for $279.99.

Deals on Apple AirTags 1 and 2

The best Prime Day tech deals always include offers on AirTags, and the recently released AirTag 2 just got its first-ever discount, though it's not a very big one. Still, you can grab these long-range trackers for $24 (or $89 for a 4-pack). If you really want to save, then head to Amazon-associated retailer Woot, where you can score a four-pack of the original AirTags 1 for $69.99 while supplies last, which they won't.

Blink Mini cameras starting at $9.99, somehow

Looking for Prime Day deals under $25? You can't do much better than this Blink Mini indoor security camera for just $9.99. That's so cheap we have to wonder if Amazon is selling it as a loss, or if the company has achieved Apple Tim Cook levels of supply chain wizardry. Either way, you can grab this Amazon brand's security cameras to protect your home inside and out.

DJI drone deals

Because DJI drones have been officially banned in the United States, you can only buy these popular drones from third-party sellers on Amazon. However, if you're willing to risk it, you can score some great deals on these drones, which have professional-quality cameras but controls that are simple enough for beginners.

Prime Day deals on smart glasses

So far this year, smart glasses have been one of my top testing priorities. I've tried some of the latest smart glasses from Xreal, Meta, TCL RayNeo, Viture Beast, and Even Realities. One of my favorite augmented reality glasses are now at a record-low price. The TCL RayNeo Air 4 Pro AR glasses are like an OLED TV you can take with you anywhere, and it's by far the most affordable entry point if you're curious about this technology.

A power station with a bonus solar panel

When you add solar panels to a portable power station, you transform these devices into eco-friendly generators. For backyard powerups or RV camping, this Mashable-tested Anker power station is one of our favorites, and during Prime Day, you can bundle it with a foldable 400W solar panel.

Roborock robot vacuums

Our resident robot vacuum expert has raved about the Roborock Saros 10R ever since it was released last year, calling it the most reliable robot vacuum and mop she's ever tested. And for Prime Day, it's at an all-time low price. Of course, I know that $800+ price tag is still out of reach, which is why we also recommend the brand's Qrevo bot, which has nearly as much suction power and a much more reasonable price tag.

Sony's new Bluetooth turntable

My colleague Haley Henschel reviewed Sony's newest wireless record player, which was just released in the spring. For Prime Day 2026, this trending product got its first big price drop, with a cool $100 discount. This record player is a good choice for vinyl newbies and moderate collectors, and it's easy to use. For more, check out our full review.

Shark's personal fan

My colleague, Samantha Mangino, tested the Shark ChillPill and found that it's a great little device, but a little too expensive to recommend at full price. During Prime Day, the ChillPill has gotten a slight discount of $20, knocking the price down to $129.99, the lowest price we've seen to date.

Amazon Echo Show 11

Amazon devices always get big discounts during the retailer's sales events. In fact, I don't know why you'd buy Echo devices any other time of year. The newest Amazon smart display is currently 32% off for Prime members.

Google Pixel smartphones

Mashable recently named the Google Pixel 10a one of the best smartphones of 2026 so far, and that was before it got a price cut that moved it into budget territory. This mid-range phone has all of Google's latest AI bells and whistles, and enough camera and processing power to get the job done. Read our full Pixel 10a review if you need more info, or go ahead and pick up this handset while it's on sale.

Red light masks

I'll admit that I was very skeptical of red light masks at first, but after talking to dermatologists and trying them myself, I can admit that I was wrong. The affordable Lumin eye mask is the red light device I personally use to try and fight signs of aging, and my colleague Leah Stodart recommends the Dreame Chrona if you want a full-face treatment.

Canon's portable photo printer

My colleague, Miller Kern, has a Canon Ivy 2 and loves it. It's awesome for printing out photos that would otherwise be buried in your camera roll, and it's an essential for junk journaling. The mini printer uses ZINK peel-and-stick paper, so you can stick photos directly onto your journal pages or scrapbook spreads. And the images are actually pretty high-quality.

Apple MagSafe Charger

Need a new charger for your iPhone or Apple Watch? The classic Apple MagSafe charger just hit a new record-low price. Don't overthink this one.

The best live Prime Day speaker deals: Shop Sony, Sonos, JBL, and more of our top picks

We've hand-picked the best Amazon Prime Day speaker deals from top brands like Sonos, Sony, Anker Soundcore, JBL, and Marshall.

If you plan on hitting the beach, hosting friends, or heading out on a camping trip this summer, having a quality speaker in tow is a good idea. And lucky for you, plenty of fantastic options are on sale to kick off the season, thanks to Amazon Prime Day.

Prime Day is still going strong through June 26, and Amazon's deals on speakers show no signs of slowing down. Top brands like Sony, Sonos, and JBL saw solid discounts in the lead up to the big event, but now that Prime Day is actually here, prices have dropped even further for some of our top picks. The ULT Field line of Sony speakers is seeing record-low prices, as are some of our niche favorites like the Marshall Emberton III, Anker Soundcore Select 4 Go, and Ultimate Ears Miniroll.

We'll be tracking the best Bluetooth speaker deals throughout Prime Day and updating this page with the absolute best pricing. If nothing catches your eye quite yet, check back for any new deals that may drop.

Best Prime Day speaker deal

Why we like it

Our favorite Bluetooth speaker for bass lovers, the Sony ULT Field 3 just hit a new best price ever for Prime Day 2026. Surprisingly powerful, it checks all the right boxes for a Bluetooth speaker: it's waterproof, dustproof, shockproof, and rustproof, and has excellent audio quality, impressive battery life, and hefty bass you can feel bump through your whole body.

Mashable's Miller Kern writes, "The speaker is great for punching up your music and bringing out little details you might miss on another speaker." Typically $209.99, it's dropped all the way down to $137.75.

Runner-up Prime Day speaker deal

Why we like it

If you like your tech to look as stylish as it performs, the Marshall Emberton III is another one of our top picks for a Bluetooth speaker. "Not only does this premium Bluetooth speaker have Marshall's iconic vintage look, but it's also a solid-sounding speaker for its price point," Mashable's reviewer writes. It produces clear and well-rounded sound with a slightly bass-heavy mix right out of the box. We wish there was a custom equalizer, but the companion app does have presets that you can use to personalize your sound. The list price is a bit steep for what you get, but now that it's down to a record-low $99.99, we highly recommend it.

Best Prime Day budget speaker deal

Why we like it

Our favorite speaker under $50 has dropped below $20 for Prime Day. The Soundcore Select 4 Go is a tiny powerhouse that's as portable as it is tough. It's dust- and waterproof, can easily be attached to a backpack or beach bag, packs 20 hours of playtime, and customizable through an in-app 9-band EQ or select presets. As Mashable's reviewer puts it, "If you don’t need expansive customization, or even crystal-clear sound, then go with what’s considered the best portable speaker deal under $25 and $50." Or in this case, under $20.

The world is watching the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

16 cities across the U.S., Mexico, and Canada are welcoming the best international sides from around the world as they compete for arguably the biggest prize in sport. Huge names like Kylian Mbappé, Vinícius Júnior, and Lamine Yamal are already stealing the spotlight, but new stars always shine brightly in this prestigious competition.

If you're interested in watching the 2026 FIFA World Cup from anywhere in the world, we've got all the information you need.

What is the FIFA World Cup?

The World Cup is an international football competition between senior men's national teams. The 2026 World Cup has been expanded to 48 teams, split into 12 groups of four teams. The top two teams in each group and the eight best third-placed teams will progress to the knockout rounds.

The defending champions are Argentina. They won their third title at the 2022 World Cup after defeating France in an epic final.

When is the 2026 FIFA World Cup?

The 2026 World Cup is the 23rd edition of this famous competition. This year's tournament takes place from June 11 to July 19.

How to watch the 2026 FIFA World Cup for free

A number of streaming platforms are offering free coverage of the 2026 FIFA World Cup:

• Australia — SBS

• Austria — ORF and ServusTV

• Belgium — RTBF and VRT

• France — M6

• Germany — ARD and ZDF

• Ireland — RTÉ

• Italy — RAI

• Norway — NRK

• Netherlands — NOS

• Spain — RTVE

• UK — BBC iPlayer and ITVX (recommended)

These streaming services are geo-restricted, but anyone can secure access with a VPN. These tools can hide your real IP address (digital location) and connect you to a secure server in another location, meaning you can livestream the 2026 FIFA World Cup for free from anywhere in the world.

Livestream the 2026 FIFA World Cup for free by following these simple steps:

1. Sign up for a streaming-friendly VPN (we recommend ExpressVPN)

2. Download the app to your device of choice

3. Open up the app and connect to a server in the UK

4. Visit BBC iPlayer or ITVX (recommended)

5. Watch the 2026 FIFA World Cup for free from anywhere in the world

The best VPNs for streaming are not free, but they do tend to offer generous money-back guarantees. By leveraging these offers, you can watch the 2026 FIFA World Cup without committing your cash. This is obviously not a long-term strategy, but it gives you enough time to stream this tournament before recovering your investment.

ExpressVPN's regular 30-day money back guarantee is not available for any subscriptions purchased during the FIFA World Cup between June 10 and July 11. ExpressVPN remains our top pick for sport, but you will need to pay the monthly rate. Alternatively, Proton VPN still offers that all-important money-back guarantee.

What is the best VPN for the FIFA World Cup?

ExpressVPN is the best choice for bypassing geo-restrictions to stream live sport, for a number of reasons:

• Servers in 105 countries

• Easy-to-use app available on all major devices including iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac, and more

• Strict no-logging policy so your data is secure

• Fast connection speeds free from throttling

• Up to 10 simultaneous connections

A two-year subscription to ExpressVPN is on sale for $68.40 and includes an extra four months for free — 81% off for a limited time. Alternatively, you can get a one-month plan for just $12.99. That covers you for the duration of the World Cup.

The best Nintendo Switch deals on Prime Day: Score live discounts on the Switch 2 and eShop credit

Shop the best Prime Day Nintendo Switch deals at Amazon, as vetted by our deals experts.

We've made it to Day 3 of Amazon Prime Day, and there are plenty of deals on offer for anyone with a Nintendo Switch on their wishlist. Several of our favorite Switch and Switch 2 games and accessories are discounted right now, with more to come.

The four-day sale kicked off with a wide selection of goodies to claim, including a bundle with the actual console itself. The Switch 2 turns 1 this month and is set for a price increase to $499.99 on Sept. 1 rather than a cut, so grabbing a bundle now is your best window to beat the hike. Otherwise, the real savings you'll find right now are on games and accessories.

Ready to shop? We've curated the best Prime Day Nintendo Switch deals here for you to add to your cart right now. We'll keep this guide updated as the sale goes on, so keep checking back to find the best Switch and Switch 2 discounts like the ones below.

You can also visit our Prime Day 2026 hub for all the latest updates and price drops or our live blog for the most up-to-date deals, news, and stock alerts.

Best Prime Day Nintendo Switch deal

Why we like it

While technically not a "deal" in the sense that you'll save money for Prime Day, this bundle is a good way to pick up both a Nintendo Switch 2 and the game of your choice out of a decent selection. You get the console itself, Joy-Con controllers, and games like Pokémon Pokopia, Mario Kart World, and Donkey Kong Bananza with the bundle, so you can get started playing right away. With a 7.9-inch LCD touch screen, three play modes, and backward compatibility with most Nintendo Switch titles, it's well worth picking up, especially given the price hike coming in September.

Best Prime Day Nintendo Switch game deal

Why we like it

This remake of the Nintendo classic is out this week, and you can go ahead and save on it before its release. Fly through space on a fast and furious adventure with Fox, Slippy, Peppy, and Falco as you experience this new take on the Star Fox 64 story. It has new fully-voiced dialogue, a new orchestral soundtrack, and completely new graphics for a whole new generation. You can also invite a second player to join you on your adventures.

Best Prime Day Nintendo Switch accessory deal

Why we like it

This Pro Controller alternative is much cheaper at the moment, and it'll get the job done with style and panache. It has special joysticks with better precision, higher sensitivity, and improved durability, so no matter what game you're into, you know it'll feel great to play. It also features an integrated charging dock so you can always stay charged up, no matter what kind of schedule you keep. Plus, it has a slew of customizable features you can change up for different games, offering a much more bombastic experience than a Joy-Con controller.

Best Prime Day Nintendo eShop deal

Why we like it

If you plan to buy games directly from the Nintendo eShop for your Switch or Switch 2, you might as well get free money to do so. Costco has a multi-pack of four $50 eCash codes on sale for $169.99, down from its usual $179.99 price tag. That gives you a total value of $200 to spend on digital downloads, saving you $30 on your future gaming purchases.

Best Prime Day unlocked Samsung smartphone deal

Why we like it

"If there's ever been a phone to make you ditch Apple, this is it." That's what Mashable's Timothy Beck Werth said in his Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra review. The phone even earned a Mashable Choice Award. With that kind of praise, of course we're excited to see it get a price cut at Amazon Prime Day.

The unlocked, 512GB model in all colorways is currently on sale for $1,119.99 (beating the previous lowest-ever price of $1,199.99). If you've been looking for a phone upgrade, this is quite an awesome deal to jump on. Werth also adds in the review, "for dedicated Android users — or anyone who loves big phones and hates Liquid Glass — the S26 Ultra is worth the investment."

Best Prime Day Samsung monitor deal

Why we like it

For gamers looking to splash out on a fancy PC monitor upgrade, this deal on the Samsung 49-inch Odyssey G9 gaming monitor is definitely worth a look. While the standalone screen deal we saw earlier is gone, you can grab it bundled with the DP and HDMI cable setup for $799.99. It normally sits at $1,299.99, so you're still pocketing a $500 savings.

It features a 49-inch 1000R curved screen with a Dual QHD ultra-wide resolution, a 240Hz refresh rate, and a 1ms response time to prevent on-screen stuttering or frame lag.

Best Prime Day Samsung smartwatch deal

Why we like it

Alongside a variety of fitness features and health and sleep tracking features, our hands-on review from Kimberly Gedeon highlights that it's "designed for rugged adventurers." It can "handle temperatures between -4 and 131 degrees Fahrenheit, and it can tolerate deep-sea diving and other challenging environments." If it seems like the kind of fit for your lifestyle, this is an excellent time to scoop it up.

Best DJI deal

Why we like it

Perfect for both beginners and experts, the DJI Neo mini drone gets you 4K UHD footage without costing a fortune. Since it's a DJI drone, you get the reassurance that it comes packed with features like palm takeoff, propeller guards, and smart tracking. Plus, it weighs just 135 grams, so it's easy to pack along.

During Prime Day, snag the DJI Neo for $139, marked down from the normal list price of $199, which saves you a nice $60.

We tested the most popular Ninja appliances, and now theyre all on sale for Prime Day

We tested the most popular Ninja kitchen appliances in our own homes, including the Creami, Foodi, and Slushi. These are our favorites.

The popularity of Ninja and Shark appliances is undeniable. The brand touches nearly every room in your home. It makes vacuums to keep your floors clean, air purifiers to refresh the air, hair stylers for at-home blowouts, and an appliance for every step of the cooking process. But with such an expansive catalog, it can be hard to sort through the best of the brand.

We wanted to test our way through the best Ninja had to offer in kitchen appliances. We brought the most popular products from the brand into our kitchens to see how the Creami, Slushi, and Foodi stacked up.

And if you like what you see, we recommend buying during Prime Day, which runs from June 23 to 26. The best Prime Day deals always include savings of 30% or more on Ninja appliances, including the Foodi, Crispi, and Luxe Café.

Why buy Ninja?

There are plenty of kitchen appliance brands out there, so why Ninja? Generally, we find its products to be some of the best value products. They tend to be the most affordable options on the market that still deliver excellent performance.

Plus, Ninja products are really beginner-friendly devices that are easy to use with minimal setup required. The appliances bring ease with delicious end products. The Creami is a perfect example of this. Traditional ice cream making requires a bit of skill, knowing how to cook custards to the right temperature with hours of churning. But the Creami simplifies ice cream making with a user-friendly product that still delivers a fantastic end result.

Just because they're beginner-friendly devices doesn't mean they're only for beginners. They're convenient devices with professional-level performance that help develop a more efficient kitchen.

Other products we tested

Having rounded up the best Ninja kitchen appliances means we tested a lot of products and not all of them made it to the list, two notable exceptions being the Ninja Creami Deluxe and Foodi Grill and Air Fryer.

The Ninja Deluxe was my introduction to the Creami lineup, and it is great. It spun up creamy frozen confections and even featured a frozen drink setting. However, compared to the Swirl, it required several re-spins to get the right texture.

Meanwhile, the Foodi Grill was another great multicooker from Ninja. The indoor grill made delicious, juicy chicken breasts with actual char marks. Plus, its air-frying capabilities were a little too good. It got things crispy fast, but often felt like it dried out food in the process. Plus, it was just so large that it didn't feel like a practical device for most people.

That being said, these devices are good, but not in our all-star line-up.

Should you get a robot vacuum on Prime Day? I test them for a living and found some best-ever deals.

My top robot vacuum recommendations are on sale for Prime Day. Shop the Eufy C28 and Shark UV Reveal 2-in-1.

Don't ask ChatGPT which robot vacuum you should buy on Prime Day — ask the person who's tested nearly 40 robot vacuums in their own home. Most of the best robot vacuums of the past few years, including new 2026 models, are on sale for Prime Day, which runs until June 26. Since the event has officially kicked off, I found a handful of worthwhile robot vacuums on sale to buy right now.

That doesn't just refer to the models with the biggest discounts. I've further whittled down the list to the robot vacuums with the best ratio of cleaning specs and smart features compared to their sale price. These really are the best bang for your buck.

For example, the Roborock Saros 10R that I loved last year is on sale for $884.99 (over $700 off), which is a new record low. That sounds like a steal until I remind you that you can get significantly more suction power for $699.99 with the Dreame L60 Ultra FE. The self-emptying Shark Navigator for $249.99 sounds great until you realize that just $15 more can get you mopping and small obstacle avoidance with the Roborock Q10 S5+. (If you're shopping for a really high-end robot vacuum, I recommend the Dreame X60 Max Ultra Complete, which is now $355 off, or the Narwal Flow 2, which is $450 off.)

So, here are the Prime Day deals on robot vacuums that are worth your time so far:

Best Prime Day robot vacuum deal

Why we like it

Not to rope the Roborock Saros 10R back into it, but it really does make the Dreame L60 Ultra FE's value stand out. This model was just released at the end of April 2026, and its 30,000 Pa suction power isn't too far off from the 35,000 Pa of the most powerful Dreame robot vacuum. With accurate AI obstacle avoidance and heated self-washing mopping pads thrown in, this is a really solid vacuum for less than $800.

I can personally attest to the L60 Ultra FE's cleaning power for the price — it's currently sitting in my living room. I'm a sucker for the corner mopping of a spinning mopping pad, which still squeezes into 90-degree angles better than roller mop robot vacuums that can slide out to clean edges. This Dreame model has done a commendable job with cat litter, crumbs under the kitchen counter, and cat scratcher flecks stuck in the rug.

I tried the best smart rings of 2026 — yes, theres more than just Oura

We tested the best smart rings on the market. While the Oura Ring comes out on top, there are more affordable options available.

Smart rings monitor your health in a tiny, inconspicuous package. At first glance, they look like any other piece of jewelry, a simple gold or silver ring. But with tiny sensors, these rings track biometrics through your finger. Yes, they'll track your step count and calories burned, but more advanced technology allows them to track sleep and stress levels, all detected through heart rate and variability.

If you're looking to gain deeper insights into your health, a smart ring will help you do that, and we've vetted the most popular models on the market through weeks of testing to find the best smart ring. Looking to buy soon? Now is the best time with Prime Day running June 23 to 26. The Oura Ring 4 has dropped to an all-time low of $214 for Prime Day 2026, and it's easily one of the best Prime Day deals of the sale so far.

As of May 2026, Oura dropped its latest smart ring. The Oura Ring 5 dropped and is 40% smaller than previous models but with all the same tech. We've yet to test Oura's latest innovation but will update this guide once we've vetted the ring. In the meantime, the Oura Ring 4 is still included on this list and widely available.

The Evie Ring is still available, however, it's currently out of stock. You are able to sign-up for their restock list so you can get an email when it's back-in-stock.

What's the best smart ring?

The smart ring market is ever-growing, with new models debuting each year. Samsung just launched a smart ring in 2024, and while Apple doesn't have a smart ring on the market yet, we're sure it will be here in a matter of time. But smart rings are synonymous with the Oura Ring, a leader in the field, and for good reason. After spending weeks with the device, testing its hype, and comparing it to other devices, we can confidently say Oura makes the best smart ring in 2026.

Oura offers the most expansive biometric tracking, monitoring your health around the clock. It focuses on daily and long-term health goals more holistically than other rings.

However, the Oura Ring has downsides, like a monthly subscription fee. If you're not down for a monthly fee, we tested some popular alternatives to Oura rings.

Why should you buy a smart ring?

Smart rings are not just another fitness tracker. Yes, they do track your activity, steps, and calories burned. However, they're really meant to offer a more holistic view of your health so you can gain deeper insights into your sleep habits, cardiovascular health, and more.

You're a good candidate for a smart ring if you hate the look of a smartwatch or fitness tracker with LED screens, which are categorically not cool. Smart rings are posed as a discreet option, looking like a regular piece of jewelry. However, to be frank, they don't blend in that well. In my weeks of testing, while wearing the rings during hangouts, someone would inevitably ask me, "What's that?"

Since a smart ring doesn't have a screen, you have to pull out your phone and open an app whenever you want to track activity. That's certainly not the end of the world, but if you convert from a smartwatch, you'll miss the convenience of tapping your wrist. That being said, I actually find a smart ring most useful when paired with a smartwatch. I ran all my testing while simultaneously wearing an Apple Watch, and I appreciated the smart rings that were compatible with my watch so I could receive push notifications.

The 4 best laptops of 2026 (so far) offer exceptional value despite RAMageddon

We've tested almost 20 MacBooks and Windows PCs since January. The best laptops of 2026 so far include the all-new MacBook Neo.

Here at Mashable, we're always looking for the best laptops, and we score every laptop we review on the basis of performance, battery life, design/build quality, and value. This year, the latter criterion has become more important than ever.

The laptop world is facing an unprecedented challenge in 2026: a global RAM shortage known as "RAMageddon." The shortage has caused most PC makers to raise the prices of their laptops by anywhere from $50 to $680, putting a damper on many otherwise exciting releases. Devices that could have been smart buys or splurge-worthy investments no longer feel worth it. If you were planning on retiring an older laptop soon, you might have to hold onto it until eventual clearance sales make an upgrade feasible — or take advantage of Prime Day laptop deals.

But it's not all doom and gloom. Out of the nearly 20 laptops we've tested so far this year, including two MacBooks and 17 Windows PCs, four models have emerged as RAMageddon resisters, so to speak. They stand out as the best laptops of 2026 (so far) because of their especially strong value propositions: Not only are they great devices, but they're great devices that are priced fairly for all they offer.

Read on to find out which laptops made the list. I've also thrown in a pair of honorable mentions that deserve recognition for their record-breaking battery lives.

1. Apple MacBook Neo: The budget bombshell

Apple's first budget laptop arrived this March in the form of the $599 MacBook Neo, and it's nothing short of a game-changer. Whereas most cheap Windows laptops and Chromebooks have clunky plastic builds, the Neo has the same premium, all-aluminum design as any other MacBook — complete with a Liquid Retina display, Dolby Atmos speakers, and a snappy Magic Keyboard. It comes in a bunch of fun colors to boot.

The Neo is the first MacBook to run on an iPhone chip (specifically the A18 Pro), and it's a formidable performer for the money. It's faster than most Windows laptops in simple single-core workloads like web browsing, and in our testing, it was able to handle some basic video edits in Final Cut Pro. It doesn't last as long as other MacBooks, but its 15-hour battery life is excellent for its sub-$1,000 price point.

I still consider the MacBook Air to be the best MacBook for most people, but among budget laptops, the Neo is the leading choice. It has almost no competition — for now. PC makers like Dell and Acer announced MacBook Neo alternatives this spring, putting us on the cusp of a new era of cheap but premium-feeling laptops. Exciting! (And blessedly, they're at the least risk of RAM-related price hikes because they only have 8GB of memory.)

2. Apple MacBook Air (M5): The mid-range gold standard

Apple's thin-and-light notebook got a faster M5 chip, newer wireless technology, and more starting storage this spring. While those updates don't make for an especially exciting gen-over-gen refresh, they've made the MacBook Air faster, more future-proofed, and a better value than ever.

I'd love an OLED screen the next time Apple revisits the MacBook Air, but it's not like this thing really needs a design overhaul. What other laptop gets you a haptic touchpad, industry-leading speakers, a 2.5K display, a genuinely good webcam, and a slender fanless design for just over $1,000 (but usually less, since it's almost always on sale)? Let me know when you find out. Until then, this is the laptop I find myself comparing to virtually every other model that comes across my desk.

Sadly, the MacBook Air is at risk of a price increase, so I'd scoop it up sooner rather than later if you've been thinking about buying it.

3. Asus Zenbook A16: The featherweight big-screened speedster

The all-new Asus Zenbook A16 zoomed to the top of our performance rankings when I tested it this spring. Powered by Qualcomm's screaming Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme chip, it's one of the only PCs that can match or beat M5 MacBooks in both single- and multi-core scenarios. I've tried some other Windows laptops that can compete on the multi-core front, but they're all gaming models that cost upwards of $3,000. Meanwhile, the Zenbook A16 goes for $1,699.99. Pshhh.

I certainly wouldn't call it a cheap laptop, but it's very reasonably priced when you consider the rest of its spec sheet. Highlights include an ultra-bright 2.8K OLED touchscreen with a 120Hz refresh rate; a nice mix of ports, including an SD card slot; and a metric boatload of RAM — 48 whole gigabytes. (In this economy!) Moreover, the Zenbook A16 is the lightest 16-inch laptop we've ever tested at just 2.87 pounds. It's barely heavier than a MacBook Neo or a 13-inch MacBook Air, but it still feels rigid and sturdy. It's a lean, mean, ultra-competitive machine.

Asus also updated the 14-inch Zenbook A14 with a Snapdragon X2 Elite chip for 2026, and it's another great buy at $1,349.99. (Go for that one if you're prioritizing portability and battery life: It lasted over 27 hours in our video rundown test.) Both Zenbooks were originally supposed to be even cheaper, so I'm thinking — hoping — they'll be immune to any more price adjustments this year.

4. MSI Prestige 14 Flip AI+: The too-good-to-be-true convertible

The redesigned MSI Prestige 14 Flip AI+ was the very first laptop I tested this year, and it was an immediate "best of 2026" frontrunner. Its Intel Core Ultra Series 3 ("Panther Lake") chip offered MacBook-level multi-core performance. It had an integrated GPU that could run AAA games at low settings with the help of some AI-powered upscaling technology. It lasted 25.5 hours per charge. It had a pretty OLED screen, and its speakers, mic, and keyboard were all adequate. Plus, it came with 32GB of RAM, a terabyte of storage, and a garaged stylus — all for just $1,299.99. (For reference, a 13-inch MacBook Air with 32GB of RAM costs $1,499.)

Alas, nothing gold can stay: Devastatingly, MSI has already discontinued the Prestige 14 Flip AI+. However, you'll soon be able to buy two limited-edition variants with designs inspired by van Gogh paintings. They'll probably be more expensive than the original vanilla model, though MSI hasn't shared any pricing or availability info yet.

Honorable mentions: Some new battery life champs

Two of the laptops we've tested since January have set new records for battery life. One is the HP OmniBook 3 16, which was able to loop a video for 40 hours and 14 minutes before dying. That is, in a word, nuts. It's officially the longest-lasting laptop we've ever tried in our 10-plus years of reviewing them, beating the previous winner (another HP OmniBook) by nearly eight hours.

If you're looking for a gaming laptop with impressive stamina — not something that category is known for! — then the 2026 MSI Stealth 16 AI+ is an overachiever. It lasted 11 hours and 38 minutes on a single charge, surpassing its predecessor, the prior titleholder, by over half an hour. For reference, our current median for gaming PCs is only four measly hours.

The best Prime Day AirPods deals are live — AirPods Max 2 down to best-ever price

We're tracking all the best Prime Day AirPods deals, including discounts on the AirPods 4, AirPods Pro 3, and AirPods Max 2.

Need a new pair of AirPods? You can always find Apple's earbuds and headphones on sale for cheaper than usual during Prime Day — not just on Amazon, but at competing retailers, too.

Prime Day 2026 is live now through June 26, and so far, the top AirPods deal goes to the over-ear AirPods Max 2. They're currently marked down to a record-low price of $399 on Amazon, or a whopping $150 off. (They only just came out in April, mind you.) Amazon's inventory is fluctuating as we pass the midway point of Prime Day, so if your preferred color isn't in stock when you're reading this, try Walmart: It's offering the same $399 AirPods Max deal during its own sale this week.

Meanwhile, the entry-level AirPods 4 and noise-cancelling AirPods Pro 3 are both on sale for up to $70 off this Prime Day. Neither model is matching its biggest discount on record, but given Apple's plans for price hikes in the near future, these are probably going to be their best deals for a while.

Read on for our rundown of the best Prime Day AirPods deals available. If you're a brand loyalist, be sure to check out our dedicated guide to the top Prime Day deals on all Apple products.

Best AirPods deal

Why we like it

The vanilla AirPods 4 are our No. 1 Apple earbuds for budget buyers. In our testing, they sounded fantastic, fit comfortably, and worked seamlessly with other Apple devices. We saw them drop all the way down to $69 last Black Friday, but $99 is their best price so far in 2026. Save $30 at Amazon and Walmart. (PSA: Walmart also has pre-owned AirPods 4 on sale for just $65.)

The AirPods 4 are also available with ANC. That pair is on sale for $148.99 (normally $179) at Amazon, Walmart, and Costco. For reference, their record-low price is $99.

Read Mashable's full review of the AirPods 4 with ANC.

Best AirPods Pro deal

The AirPods Pro 3 are our favorite AirPods across all price points, offering great ANC, an eight-hour battery life, plus extra fixings like a built-in heart rate monitor. They're also more water- and sweat-resistant than the regular AirPods 4, making them better for working out. They were only $169 on Amazon last week, but at the time of writing, they were sitting at $179 there. Walmart was price-matching them.

Read Mashable's full review of the AirPods Pro 3.

Best AirPods Max deal

Apple's newly updated headphones have better ANC than the original AirPods Max from 2021. They run on the same H2 chip as the AirPods Pro 3, so they support the same software features (such as Live Translation and Conversation Awareness). In one of the best and most unexpected Prime Day deals thus far, they're on sale for just $399 this week — a new all-time low. At the time of writing, Amazon and Walmart both had them in stock at that price in midnight, starlight, blue, and purple.

I track TV prices all year: These are the best Prime Day TV deals still live

Amazon has way more TVs on sale than its own Fire TVs. Prime Day runs June 23 to 26, I found deals on more than 25 TVs.

Prime Day season is one of the best times of year to buy a TV on sale. Usually in July, Prime Day is here earlier than usual, running June 23 to 26. Maybe Amazon knew that the World Cup would make everyone realize they were in need of a new TV.

Leading up to Prime Day, the TV deals were hot as we saw savings over $1,000. Now that Amazon's flagship sale is officially underway, we're seeing even bigger discounts on already great deals. Not to mention, Amazon is running a stellar bundle on Frame TVs and the Echo 8.

So let's get into all the best TV deals to shop during Prime Day. Be sure to check back throughout the sale for updates and follow along with all other categories in Mashable's Prime Day hub.

Best Prime Day TV deal

Why we like it

Hisense finally launched its highly-awaited RGB TVs on June 2. While both the UR8 and UR9 RGB TVs are on sale at Best Buy, there's another 2026 Hisense TV with a much wilder discount: The 75-inch Hisense U7 Mini LED TV is just $999.99 exclusively for Prime members after a massive 50% price drop from its usual $1,999.99.

Just released in March, the Hisense U7 series has a pretty incredible lighting system for its price range. Its backlight benefits from full-array local dimming, which uses clusters of tiny LED bulbs that can fully turn themselves on or off for more precise contrast during any scene or livestream. Other impressive numbers include a peak brightness of 3,000 nits (great news for FIFA fans trying to watch a game during the daytime) and a native 165Hz refresh rate (great news for gamers on a budget).

Best Prime Day Frame TV deal

Why we like it

Samsung's latest Frame TVs just got their first discount during Prime Day and if that wasn't enough, Amazon is sweetening the deal. The new Frame TVs come with Neo QLEDs, a Micro HDMI port, and that signature art display.

But during Prime Day, Amazon is offering an even bigger discount. The Frame Pro is $230 off, its first discount, bringing it down to $1,297.99. That's 15% savings, but there's more. You'll also get a free Echo Show 11 with your purchase if you add it to your cart from the promo page. That's a $219.99 value, totally free.

This deal is available on both the Frame TV Pro and regular Frame TV.

Best Prime Day Amazon TV deal

Why we like it

It's not Prime Day without record-low prices on Amazon's own gadgets. The 65-inch Ember Artline TV, which was just released at the end of April, got its biggest discount ever right before the Prime Day festivities kicked off. Now that we're in the trenches of the sale, Amazon has knocked an extra $100 off for select Prime members. Click on "Redeem" under the Prime Day logo to score the extra savings or enter the code FTVSAVE at checkout to get this model for only $799.99.

Think of the Ember Artline as Amazon's dupe of The Frame. It's designed to look like a painting on the wall, with a matte screen, an assortment of frame options, and a gallery of 2,000+ free works of art. Basically, if you have The Frame taste, but you're on a bit tighter budget, this is the deal for you.

The best Prime Day laptop deals are live — shop MacBooks, Windows PCs, and gaming laptops

The best Prime Day laptop deals (so far) have gone to the Apple MacBook Air and the Microsoft Surface Laptop 7.

The ongoing global RAM shortage has led many PC makers to raise their laptop prices this year. Even Apple's MacBooks are at risk of price bumps in the near future. Mercifully, Amazon's annual Prime Day sale is offering some sweet RAMageddon relief this week, slashing prices on select PCs through to the sale's end on June 26.

As Mashable's resident expert on all things laptops, I have to tell you that Amazon carries a much smaller selection of Windows laptops, gaming laptops, and Chromebooks than other major retailers — especially Best Buy, which happens to be running a competing Tech Fest sale this week. I've rounded up Amazon's most worth-it laptop deals below and made sure they aren't available cheaper elsewhere. But don't feel like you need to be loyal to Amazon just because Prime Day is hogging the spotlight right now.

I'll continue to update the following list with the best Prime Day laptop deals as the sale progresses, so check back often. You can also visit the Mashable shopping team's dedicated Prime Day 2026 hub for all the latest tech price drops from around the web.

Best Prime Day MacBook deal

Powered by the M5 chip, Apple's sleek MacBook Air is faster than any other Windows laptop at its price point (and even many that are way more expensive). Its overall build quality also smokes most of the competition: It comes equipped with a luxe haptic touchpad, a sharp Liquid Retina display, and 12MP webcam. The 13-inch base model usually costs $1,099 — an already-great deal in this day and age — but it's marked down to just $949 during Prime Day. If it sells out on Amazon, you can find the same discount at Best Buy.

Best Prime Day Windows laptop deal

We loved the Surface Laptop 7 back when it launched in 2024. While its CPU isn't the freshest anymore, it still impresses as a whole: It features a 23-hour battery life, a microSDXC card slot, and a 2.5K touchscreen that's brighter and smoother than a MacBook Air's display.

Amazon's amazing Prime Day deal on this 15-inch model comes just a week after Microsoft announced the very similar Surface Laptop 8 (which isn't on sale just yet). It's currently listed for just $1,229.99 — a whopping 44% off its regular retail price of $2,099.99. I wouldn't be surprised if this deal disappears long before Prime Day ends, considering the exact same model sold out at Best Buy after dropping to $1,699.99 there.

Best Prime Day gaming laptop deal

I haven't tried this 16-inch budget gaming laptop, but our friends over at CNET rated it a solid 7.7/10, writing that it "provides enough 3D graphics oomph for 1080p/1200p gaming." (Mashable and CNET are both owned by Ziff Davis.) It features four-zone RGB keyboard backlighting and a big, buttery 180Hz display. Plus, it's kitted out with plenty of RAM and storage — and the latter is easily upgradable. It usually retails for $1,399.99, but it's on sale for just $1,099.99 this Prime Day. That's a record-low price that last appeared on Black Friday 2025.

I test vacuums professionally, and I found the 10+ best live deals on Prime Day

What vacuum should you buy on Prime Day 2026? Our vacuum expert hand-picked these offers — save $100 or more on Shark, Dreame, and Dyson vacuums.

As someone who tests new vacuums every month, I could easily make a case for why robot vacuums are better or why cordless vacuums are better. If you're having trouble deciding, my ultimate advice is always just to get both — I promise there are budget-friendly ways to do so, especially when so many good vacuums are on sale for Prime Day.

Note: Items that are struck through are either out of stock or no longer discounted. We're actively tracking inventory and updating prices throughout the day.

Should I get a robot vacuum or stick vacuum?

A robot vacuum is the way to go if you know, deep down, that the only way your home will be vacuumed every day is if a robot does it. A cordless vacuum is the way to go if you're picky about cleanliness and find the chore to be cathartic rather than tedious. If you feel passionately about one side, there are plenty of deals on splurge-worthy vacuums that I've tested like the Dyson V15 Detect Extra or Dreame X60 Max Ultra Complete.

But most people can probably see themselves wanting access to both types of vacuums, depending on how busy their day is. In that case, I'd recommend splitting your vacuum budget. Instead of spending $700 to $1,000 on one really nice vacuum, you could buy a budget-friendly stick vacuum like the $249.99 Shark Clean & Empty and a budget-friendly robot vacuum like the $349.99 Dreame D30 Ultra CE. Both are still incredibly powerful for their price, and there will be a ton of mix-and-match options as more vacuum deals pop up through the end of Prime Day on June 26.

Best cordless vacuum deal

Why we like it

For years, we've been conditioned to shove ugly vacuums into closets when not in use — or let the plasticky gray or black designs sit out in the living space, regardless of how badly they clash with our decor. That changed when Shark released its Luxe Collection at the beginning of June. Its powerful self-emptying PowerDetect Speed stick vacuum now comes in four chic earth tones: Oatstone, Harbor Slate, Walnut, and Sagewood. They're all $100 off at SharkNinja.

Not only are these Shark PowerDetect Speed models the prettiest vacuums I've ever seen, but the Shark PowerDetect Speed is the best cordless vacuum for pet hair on carpet that I've ever tested. The suction power is palpable in your hand, but it's not so intense that the vacuum gets jammed on carpet. All debris is automatically emptied into the storage dock each time you hang it up, so your next cleaning session will always start with a clean slate. You'll easily be able to see just how much gunk was sucked up from each room, specifically.

Best robot vacuum deal

Why we like it

I tested and loved the Eufy C28 when it came out in February 2026. And I have a feeling it'll remain one of my most recommended robot vacuum and mop combos for the next year or so.

The Eufy C28 is probably the most affordable roller mop robot vacuum you'll find, and easily the most heavy-duty mopping robot vacuum out there this season. The fluffy roller spans the entire bottom of the vacuum and rinses itself with fresh water as it's mopping, making it a far more reliable choice for soaking up large liquid spills (without smearing them around) than other cheap mopping robot vacuums. Its self-emptying dock also washes and dries the mop after each cleaning, so it's easier to forgive how painfully loud it is.

The best Prime Day Fitbit deals are live now — Shop the Inspire 3, Charge 6, and more

We're seeing strong discounts on Fitbits this Prime Day, including the Fitbit Charge 6 and the Versa 4.

Amazon's Prime Day sale is now in full swing and is set to end on June 26. That's not to say you have to rush to get your bargains but you don't want to miss out as deals go out of stock, something that often happens during these major shopping events.

If you're looking to improve your overall fitness and set personal goals (while also saving a few dollars), we recommend checking out the Prime Day deals on Fitbits right now. Some of the discounted Fitbits are currently available at all-time low prices, including the Charge 6.

Here are the best Prime Day Fitbit deals you can shop right now:

Best deal overall

Why we like it

The Fitbit Charge 6 isn't the newest Fitbit on the market, but it still has (almost) everything you'd need in a smart wearable. (I say almost because the Fitbit Charge 6 doesn't have an altimeter, but if you're not a trail runner, this probably isn't a deal breaker.)

The Charge 6 tracks your calories, steps, sleep, heart rate, and more. It also has built-in GPS, 40+ exercise modes, a seven-day battery life, and includes a three-month Google Health Premium (formerly Fitbit Premium) membership. Once the three months are up, you'll need to either cancel or renew for $9.99 per month or $99.99 annually.

Right now, you can get the Fitbit Charge 6 for $84.45 at Amazon. This is the lowest price we've tracked on this model since its release in 2023.

Runner-up deal

Why we like it

If you're willing to spend a little bit more, the Fitbit Versa 4 is on sale for $124.45. This isn't the lowest price we've seen (it was $104.96 in April 2024), but it's still a pretty good deal.

Unlike the Charge 6, the Versa 4 has an altimeter and Bluetooth wrist calling. So, if you're looking for a wearable that acts more like a smartwatch, the Versa 4 might be the better buy. That said, it doesn't have the more "serious" health sensor that the Charge 6 does (e.g., ECG and EDA).

The Versa 4 also comes with three months of Google Health Premium.

Best budget deal

Why we like it

If you're just looking for something that's affordable and efficient, the Fitbit Inspire 3 is your best option at $66.45.

It's a no-frills fitness tracker that'll give you the basic features you need to stay on top of your health. It can track your heart rate, steps, and stress levels. (It also offers menstrual health tracking, which is nice.)

You'll also get 10 full days of battery life and, like the other models mentioned above, three free months of Google Health Premium.

Until June 29, get Claude, Gemini, and ChatGPT for life for $70

1min.AI is an AI platform that gives you lifetime access to ChatGPT, Gemini, and more for $70

TL;DR: 1min.AI gives you lifetime access to AI models like GPT, Claude, and Gemini, but instead of charging you every month, it’s only $70 for life.

---

Most AI tools do one thing well. The problem is that most workflows need more than one thing, and paying separately for a writing tool, an image editor, an audio platform, and a video tool adds up to a lot of monthly bills fast. 1min.AI new all-in-one AI platform that gives you access to the same popular AI models like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude, but instead of paying for them every month, you can get them all for life for $69.97 (reg. $540).

1min.AI gives you access to a wide range of AI models so you’re not locked into one tool’s strengths or blind spots. On the writing side, you’ll get access to AI for blog generation, keyword research, rewriting, summarizing, paraphrasing, grammar checking, and social media comment generation across LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook.

Image tools go well beyond a basic generator, with editing and manipulation capabilities that cover tasks even a professional designer would reach for a separate app to do. Audio handles voice, music, and translation work. Video covers both creation and editing, including tools specifically for YouTube content. Documents can be chatted with, translated, or turned into presentations without leaving the platform.

The Advanced Business Plan includes 4,000,000 credits per month, which works out to roughly 1,112,500 words, 1,186 images, or 37 videos monthly. On top of that, you can earn up to 450,000 additional free credits per month through daily logins, reviews, and referrals, and those credits never expire.

Stop paying every month for apps you can get for life.

Through June 29, it’s only $69.97 to get a 1min.AI advanced Business Plan.

Best Ninja Prime Day deal

Why we like it

This is an all-in-one coffee machine that covers pretty much every style you’d want at home, from espresso and drip coffee to cold brew. It comes with a built-in grinder and smart Barista Assist tech that helps guide grind size and dosing, so you get better results without much guesswork. You also get hands-free milk frothing and cold brew options, making it an easy way to get café-style drinks with minimal effort. Oh, and it's $100 off for Prime Day.

Best Nespresso Prime Day deal

Why we like it

Best De'Longhi Prime Day deal

Why we like it

It also comes with a steam wand for smooth milk froth and latte art. There's even barista-style tools included and preset drinks like espresso, americano, and hot water. And right now for Prime Day, you can save $300 on list price.

The best Apple Watch deals of Prime Day — shop the Series 11 at record-low price plus more live deals

Prime Day runs June 23-26. It's Amazon's biggest sale of the year and we've found deals on Apple Watches. Shop the Series 11 at a new low price.

Warmer weather means more time outside, and when you're in the great outdoors, a fitness tracker or smartwatch helps track all of that activity. Whether you're headed out on a European vacation or have a list of summer hikes to tackle, an Apple Watch is one of our favorite ways to stay connected and track activity. And with Prime Day here again, we're hunting for deals on the popular smartwatch.

We're now on Day 3 of Amazon's biggest sale of the year, and the Series 11 is still holding strong at $279 (a new low price), but that's not all. We've gathered up all the Apple Watch deals that deserve a look during Prime Day.

Best Prime Day Apple Watch deal

Why we like it

The Apple Watch Series 11 dropped to $279 for Prime Day. That's the lowest-ever price for this model. We rate it as our favorite smartwatch for fitness tracking, and it has an impressive battery. With improved battery life compared to the Series 10, you don't need to charge the watch midday for battery life to last you all night. So if you've been thinking about upgrading, grab it now.

The best Prime Day deals on power stations — shop Jackery, Bluetti, DJI, and more

Portable power stations are on sale at Amazon on Prime Day. Save on Jackery, Bluetti, Anker, DJI, and more.

Summer 2026 is in full swing now. Barbecues, camping trips, vacation, and avoiding mosquitoes are all on the agenda. But something else big happens every summer — Amazon Prime Day. This year, Amazon is hosting the annual sale earlier than ever, running June 23 to 26. Things are well and truly underway.

There are some excellent deals on portable power stations, from tiny models that keep your phone charged up to absolute beasts that can keep your refrigerator cooling for days. Having reviewed dozens of power stations, these are the models I would consider buying during Prime Day.

Best Anker deal

Why we like it

Read Mashable's full review of the Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2.

If you're looking to buy your first portable power station, the Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 is an excellent all-around model. It offers a respectable 1,024Wh capacity, which is a bit like a Goldilocks amount. That's a good amount of power for a weekend away, but it doesn't go overboard. It's also easy to transport, coming in at under 25 pounds. It has excellent recharging ability, going from dead to 100% power in under 50 minutes. It's a summer essential for me, and it's also excellent during a power outage.

• Anker SOLIX S2000 with 400W Solar Panel — $999.99 $1,999 (save $999.01)

Best Bluetti deal

Why we like it

If you don't need heaps of power, consider the Bluetti Elite 10, one of my favorite small portable power stations. It comes with 128Wh of power, which is enough to keep your phone, earbuds, or Kindle charged up during a camping trip or when the power goes out. Plus, the green colorway option is undeniably special.

In addition to its small size, the Bluetti Elite 10 is lightweight and great for people to carry from room to room during a power outage. On Prime Day, it's on sale at Amazon for $107.

• Bluetti Elite 300 Portable Power Station with Solar Cable — $1,072 $1,599 (save $527)

Best Jackery deal

Why we like it

The Jackery Explorer 1500 Ultra has a unique feature when it comes to portable power stations — it's resistant to water and dust. As you can imagine, it's not wise to add water into the mix with most portable power stations, but the Jackery Explorer 1500 Ultra has an IP 65 rating and a level nine seismic shockproofing. All of that means this model is ideal if you'll be in harsh conditions. Bring this model camping in the rain or take it to the job site. It's also ideal if you'll be working in a shed with wood shavings.

The Jackery Explorer 1500 Ultra is currently $899 at Amazon, its lowest ever price.

• Jackery HomePower 3600 Plus with Solar Panels — $2,039 $3,699 (save $1,660)

Best EcoFlow deal

Why we like it

A huge benefit to choosing a portable power station is its ability to recharge via sunlight. Of course, in order to do that, you'll need a solar panel. The EcoFlow Delta 3 with a 220W solar panel is a great deal to hop on. For $669, down from the normal price of $999, you get the EcoFlow Delta 3 and a 220W solar panel for recharging.

The EcoFlow Delta 3 itself comes with 1,024Wh with an impressive 3,600W surge. EcoFlow states the 220W solar panel can recharge the Delta 3 back to 100% in about six hours. Take the power station and solar panel camping this summer and you might be in for unlimited power.

Best DJI deal

Why we like it

You might know DJI better for their leading drone technology, but the tech brand makes highly-rated power stations too. This model, the DJI Power 1000, is equipped with 1,024Wh plus a selection of outputs or multiple device charging, including various USB ports and AC outputs. The power station itself fully recharges in just 1.35 hours, making it highly practical for a continuous power supply.

GTA VI preorders are live for PS5 and Xbox, starting at $80 with a $100 Ultimate Edition

As of June 25, "Grand Theft Auto VI" is now available for pre-order on PS5 and Xbox. The base game costs $80, while the Ultimate Edition costs $100.

It's last call for your "we got X before GTA VI" memes. As of midnight local time on June 25, Grand Theft Auto VI is finally available for pre-order on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S ahead of its mid-November release. It comes in two editions starting at $79.99.

GTA VI preorders are currently live at Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Target, Walmart, the PlayStation Store, the Microsoft Store, and the Rockstar Games Store.

GTA VI's base game costs $79.99 and ships as "a single-player experience," according to a press release from developer Rockstar Games. In other words, it won't come with a new version of Grand Theft Auto Online, the multiplayer side of GTA V.

There's also a $99.99 GTA VI Ultimate Edition featuring "an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action," Rockstar said. It's previewing these extras on its website, which include:

• A ’95 Grotti Cheetah vehicle

• Hawk & Little Morgan Revolvers

• Personalized sidearm variants

• Exclusive outfits and tattoos

• Exclusive hair styles, makeup, and nail art

• Jason's Safehouse vehicles

• A Vapid Ganado modkit

• Access to two exclusive vehicle mod shops and a clothing store

• A Shitzu Squalo boat

• A '67 Vapid Dominator Buggy vehicle with a garage

• A raid mission for the PTT Youngin$ Illegal Goods Store, a gang compound

• A side mission to find and restore classic cars

All players who buy GTA VI before Nov. 20 will get a bonus Vintage Vice City Pack, which Rockstar describes as "a collection of items that flash back to when the neon burned brightest." There's a yellow ’55 Vapid Stanier vehicle with its own garage; special outfits and hairstyles for Jason and Lucia, the game's two protagonists; and a palm tree weapon pattern.

Those who pre-order digital copies will also get a free month of GTA+, a membership service that unlocks GTA Online bonuses and a library of older Rockstar titles. It normally costs $7.99 per month.

Players can preload GTA VI onto their consoles starting Nov 12. Physical copies will come with a download code in the box, not an actual disc, to facilitate this.

Rockstar revealed GTA VI's cover art in a 30-second video on its social channels last week. It released its second and most recent trailer for the upcoming blockbuster in May 2025, showcasing almost three minutes of gameplay and cutscene footage captured on a PS5.

When is 'GTA VI' out?

GTA VI is set for release on Thursday, Nov. 19. Don't forget to submit your PTO request.

The game was announced in December 2023 and was originally supposed to launch in late 2025, but Rockstar delayed it to May 2026 and then again to this fall. In announcing its second delay, Rockstar said: "These extra months will allow us to finish the game with the level of polish you have come to expect and deserve." Hey, what's a couple more months after 13 years?

Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 pays homage to an icon: Bosco the bear

In "Avatar: The Last Airbender" Season 2, one Earth Kingdom icon from the animated series is missing: Bosco the bear.

Netflix's Avatar: The Last Airbender blends a Fire Nation's worth of episodes into 10, which means some characters from the animated series don't make the cut.

Sure, certain cabbage merchants are given the respect they deserve. However, in Season 2, one Earth Kingdom icon is missing: Bosco.

Earth King Kuei's pet bear, mammalian royalty of Ba Sing Se, is not present in the Netflix series, despite being the second most important being in the Earth Kingdom during the animated show. Bosco is so highly ranked he's essentially the king's best friend, and had an entire birthday party thrown for him in the palace, in Season 2, episode 14, "City of Walls and Secrets."

"Quiet, you don't know what I had to do to get seats this near the bear," says one party attendee, as VIP Bosco absolutely rips into the banquet in front of him.

In fact, Bosco's so influential in Earth Kingdom court politics, in Season 2, episode 18, "The Earth King," Team Avatar is allowed to plead their case to the monarch simply because his bear liked Aang's waterbending tricks at the party. They're in cuffs in the throne room and Bosco licks Aang's face, so the Earth King hears them out and changes his mind. That's power.

During the coup of Ba Sing Se, in Season 2, episode 20, "The Crossroads of Destiny," Sokka, Toph, and the Earth King breakd into the throne room to rescue Bosco from the usurper Azula and her friends Mai and Ty Lee. "Just take the bear," is Mai's iconic deadpan response. After they've escaped, Bosco and the Earth King hit the road together in the first episode of Season 3, with the bear removing his little court hat. We don't talk about what happened to Bosco after the king's death — in sequel series The Legend of Korra, we learn he was eaten by the king's daughter, the Earth Queen. Horrifying. (She gets her comeuppance, don't worry.)

Where is Bosco the bear in the live action Avatar: The Last Airbender?

In the Netflix live action series, Bosco is absent, not snoozing beside the Earth King where we expected him to be. However, the bear is honoured with a colossal portrait hanging in the Earth Kingdom Royal Palace. In Season 2, episode 6, "The Parable of Two Dragons," Aang (Gordon Cormier), Katara (Kiawentiio), Sokka (Ian Ousley), and Toph (Miya Cech) infiltrate the palace to speak to Earth King Kuei (Justin Chien) and General Sung (Lourdes Faberes).

As they're walking through the palace, Sokka notices an enormous painting on one of the walls, an undeniable portrait of Bosco. Commissioned on the scale of a history painting, the piece suggests the bear has been an influential court noble at one point (the painting takes up the entire wall). A masterpiece of a masterpiece, and a fitting Easter egg for Avatar: The Last Airbender fans.

Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 is now streaming on Netflix.

FIFA World Cup schedule today: Games, kickoff times, livestream info for June 25

Everything you need to know to watch the FIFA World Cup on June 24, including the day's schedule, kickoff times, and livestream information.

We're into the final round of the 2026 World Cup group games. The knockout brackets will be decided as teams progress or crash out at this stage, and there are still some question marks over who will and won't make it. In other words, the excitement of the World Cup continues.

Today, June 25, sees the USA back in action along with big games for Germany, Australia, Netherlands, Sweden, and Japan.

It all kicks off today at 4 p.m. ET, with respective group games scheduled to take place simultaneously. Here's everything you need to know to tune in live today.

How to watch FIFA World Cup games today

Watch Ecuador vs. Germany

Germany are two-for-two but they're not invincible. They looked shaky at times in their narrow win over Ivory Coast, which could give Ecuador the confidence to take this game to the Germans and secure an important win. Germany are already through to the knockouts, but a win here for Ecuador would give them a chance to advance.

Live coverage will be on Fox and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Watch Curacao vs. Ivory Coast

This is a fascinating fixture to close out Group E. A win for either team could secure them an automatic spot in the knockouts, and both nations will be up for the fight. Curacao are looking for their first-ever World Cup win, which follows a gallant draw against Ecuador. Ivory Coast will want to capitalise on their gutsy performance against Germany.

Live coverage will be on FS1 and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Watch Japan vs. Sweden

For sheer entertainment value, this is our pick for the best game of the day. Japan are in a golden period, as they showed in a defiant draw against the Netherlands and a decisive win over Tunisia. Sweden, meanwhile, want to rebound from a 5-1 loss to Netherlands. It's a battle for an automatic place in the knockouts.

Live coverage will be on Fox and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Watch Tunisia vs. Netherlands

Tunisia are out of the World Cup following two heavy defeats and the firing of their coach. They might even be beyond playing for pride. That's why all eyes are on Netherlands, who made noticeable improvements from their opener with Japan to their follow-up victory over Sweden. Another big victory could mark them as serious contenders to go all the way.

Live coverage will be on FS1 and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Watch Turkey vs. USA

Only Mexico so far have won all three group games. But co-host nation USA could follow suit with a win over Turkey. USA have had a tremendous tournament so far, with dynamic performances and plenty of goals. Expect them to do the same again here.

Live coverage will be on Fox and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Watch Paraguay vs. Australia

Australia showed some grit in their opening game against Turkey but fell apart against the USA. Now facing Paraguay, who have the same number of points in Group D, Australia have a chance to regain their form. Paraguay, however, will fancy their chances against the Socceroos.

Live coverage will be on FS1 and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

I test e-readers — Ive personally vetted the best-ever Kindle deals to shop on Prime Day

Prime Day Kindle deals have finally landed. The best savings are on the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition, but you can also save over $100 on the new Kindle Scribe.

Testing Kindles and e-readers is my job, but it's also my passion. I use my Kindle Paperwhite every day — unless I'm testing a new e-reader — and it's accompanied me on many a summer adventure. So, while I spend a lot of time convincing Mashable readers to buy my favorite e-readers, I also track the best times to buy one.

Amazon Prime Day 2026 is now in full swing, and Kindle deals are back in a big way. Several models have dropped to record-low prices, and the newer Kindle Scribes are finally seeing discounts, too.

So TL;DR, if you're eyeing a Kindle, now is the time to buy. Here are the very best Kindle deals to shop during Prime Day.

Best Prime Day Kindle deal

Why we like it

My absolute favorite Prime Day Kindle deal is on the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition. It's the e-reader that I use every day, and it just hit a new all-time low price of $144.99. That makes it cheaper than the Paperwhite at full price, but it also makes it the same price as the currently on sale Paperwhite without ads.

However, the Signature Edition is far more bang for your buck as it comes with twice the storage, an auto-adjusting front light, and wireless charging. It's an exceptional deal and the device's new lowest price ever.

• Amazon Kindle Paperwhite — $124.99 $159.99 (save $35)

• Amazon Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition — $219.99 $279.99 (save $60)

• Amazon Kindle Scribe (32GB) — $379.99 $499.99 (save $120)

• Amazon Kindle Scribe Colorsoft — $479.99 $629.99 (save $150)

• Kindle Kids — $99.99 $129.99 (save $30)

• Kindle Paperwhite Kids — $139.99 $179.99 (save $40)

• Kindle Colorsoft Kids — $179.99 $269.99 (save $90)

How do Kindle prices compare to previous sales?

Having tracked prices on Kindles for years, I have a pretty good sense of how much Amazon's e-readers cost during a sale. So how are Kindle deals this Prime Day?

The Kindle Paperwhite's lowest price ever is $124.99, which the device dropped to during Black Friday, Prime Big Deals Days, and of course, last year's Prime Day. This year it's back down to $124.99. The Signature Edition on the other hand reached a new low of $144.99, just $20 more for a boatload of extra features.

The deal I'm most disappointed in is on the basic Kindle, which previously dropped to $79.99. This Prime Day, it's $5 more for $84.99. New deals this Prime Day include the latest Kindle Scribe and Scribe Colorsoft, both getting their first price drops since being released.

The Sunseeker S4 robot lawn mower is down to its best-ever price for Prime Day — save over $800

As of June 25, the Sunseeker S4 robot lawn mower is down to its lowest-ever price of $984 at Amazon for Prime Day. This is 45% off its list price of $1,799.99.

SAVE OVER $800: As of June 25, the Sunseeker S4 robot lawn mower is down to its lowest-ever price of $984 for Prime Day. This is $815.99 off its list price of $1,799.99.

---

The beauty of Amazon Prime Day landing at the start of summer is that it's a great opportunity to pick up outdoor gear on sale. In particular, if you've been curious about a robot lawn mower, we've spotted quite a few models discounted at the retailer. Among them is the Sunseeker S4, which is currently at its lowest-ever price if you're a Prime member.

Outside of sales like this, the Sunseeker S4 robot lawn mower comes with quite a hefty price tag of $1,799.99, but not today. Prime members can grab it for $984, a 45% discount from that original price. Considering it's never been this low before, this is a perfect time to make a move on it if you're looking for a little extra help with yard work through these warmer months.

With the help of 360° 3D LiDAR navigation and Vision AI, the Sunseeker S4 builds out a map of your yard to figure out where it needs to go and avoids any obstacles that it may run into. And when it comes to trimming your lawn, it features a floating cutting disc that's very helpful if you have an uneven lawn, as it automatically adjusts how high it needs to be to match its shape. That way, you'll have an even cut no matter where it goes.

This particular model is also built to handle yards up to 0.25 acres and slopes up to 22°. So if you have a more complex yard that fits this description, the Sunseeker S4 can make sure your grass doesn't get out of control this summer.

This offer may not last much longer, so don't miss out on this excellent Prime Day deal on the Sunseeker S4 robot lawn mower at Amazon.

The best Prime Day deals on DJI creator tools — we vetted deals on wireless mics, drones, and cameras

Amazon Prime Day DJI drone deals are officially live. Save up to $377 on the DJI Mini 3 drone and the Osmo Action 4 before inventory runs out.

We're on Day 3 of Amazon Prime Day, and if you've had your eye on any DJI gear, now's the time to click "add to cart."

In case you haven't heard, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) officially added foreign-produced drones and uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) to its national security Covered List on December 22, 2025. This means DJI isn't allowed to import or sell any new drone models moving forward (so a future Mavic 5 Pro is out). That also means you can only buy DJI drones at Amazon from third-party sellers here in the United States, which is a bummer.

The good news? Anything that already secured FCC approval before the cutoff — like the Mavic 4 Pro, Mini 5 Pro, Air 3S, and Neo 2 — is legal to buy, own, and fly. So, if you want to grab a beginner-friendly drone or stock up on discounted backup batteries, action cams, and creator gear, Prime Day is likely your best window to get them on sale before the inventory dries up.

Many of the DJI products in this guide — like the DJI Mini Mini, the DJI Mic 3, the DJI Osmo Pocket 3, and the DJI Osmo 7P Gimbal — have been personally tested and recommended by Mashable product reviewers, so we can vouch for them.

Best Prime Day DJI drone deal

Why we like it

Right now, you can get the DJI Mini 3 for $269, down from $419. That's a 36% discount or a $150 savings. It's also a jump from where we saw it earlier this week, if you can believe it (it was $381). This is the lowest price we've tracked on this model to date.

The DJI Mini 3 is a level up from the DJI Mini 4K, which is a more budget-friendly pick for entry-level fliers (and at just $209, a steal). It weighs less than 249g, features 4K HDR video with True Vertical Shooting (ideal for photographers or real estate agents), and has a 38-minute max flight time.

The camera itself features a 1/1.3-inch sensor for shooting in low-light conditions, as well as 4K video capabilities at up to 120fps with a 155-degree ultra-wide field of view. It offers up to 150 minutes of battery life and it works in temperatures as low as -20°C. It's even waterproof to depths of 18m, making it an ideal choice for vlogging your outdoor adventures.

Best DJI mic deal

Why we like it

The DJI Mic 3 is on sale for $219, down from $329. This is another all-time low price for a Mashable-tested wireless microphone kit.

The Mic 3 is a compact wireless microphone system designed for creators, podcasters, and interviewers who need quality audio while on the go. It supports up to four transmitters, features adaptive gain control and selectable noise cancellation, and uses dual-band transmission for clear audio in busy environments. You'll get up to 28 hours of battery life with the charging case, so it's great for long hours of recording. Not to mention, it has compatibility with a huge range of DJI devices.

More DJI creator tools on sale

Best Prime Day power station deal

The DJI Power 1000 V2 is a Mashable fave and it's currently on sale for $364, down from $449.99. That's a 19% discount or $85.99 savings.

It has a 1,024Wh battery capacity and a 2,600W stable output, which is plenty of juice to run appliances like electric cookers, heaters, and your refrigerator. And according to our contributor, Lauren Allain, this version has double the AC ports and it charges from 0 to 100 percent just in 56 minutes when plugged into a wall outlet.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup knockouts are almost here, and all teams are looking to enter the most exciting part of the tournament in style.

Japan are one of the teams to watch. They held Netherlands to a draw and comfortably beat Tunisia. A win over Sweden in this last Group F game could see them win the group. Sweden, on the other hand, absolutely need a win here to regain momentum, having become the first team in World Cup history to win their opener 5-1 then lose their second game 5-1. All of which makes Japan vs. Sweden a game not to miss.

Wordle today: Answer, hints for June 25, 2026

Here's the answer for "Wordle" #1832 on June 25 as well as a few hints, tips, and clues to help you solve it yourself.

Today's Wordle answer should be easy to solve if you get along well with others.

If you just want to be told today's word, you can jump to the bottom of this article for today's Wordle solution revealed. But if you'd rather solve it yourself, keep reading for some clues, tips, and strategies to assist you.

Where did Wordle come from?

Originally created by engineer Josh Wardle as a gift for his partner, Wordle rapidly spread to become an international phenomenon, with thousands of people around the globe playing every day. Alternate Wordle versions created by fans also sprang up, including battle royale Squabble, music identification game Heardle, and variations like Dordle and Quordle that make you guess multiple words at once. 

Wordle eventually became so popular that it was purchased by the New York Times, and TikTok creators even livestream themselves playing.

What's the best Wordle starting word?

The best Wordle starting word is the one that speaks to you. But if you prefer to be strategic in your approach, we have a few ideas to help you pick a word that might help you find the solution faster. One tip is to select a word that includes at least two different vowels, plus some common consonants like S, T, R, or N.

What happened to the Wordle archive?

The entire archive of past Wordle puzzles was originally available for anyone to enjoy whenever they felt like it, but it was later taken down, with the website's creator stating it was done at the request of the New York Times. However, the New York Times then rolled out its own Wordle Archive, available only to NYT Games subscribers.

Is Wordle getting harder?

It might feel like Wordle is getting harder, but it actually isn't any more difficult than when it first began. You can turn on Wordle's Hard Mode if you're after more of a challenge, though.

Here's a subtle hint for today's Wordle answer:

The DJI Flip is rarely on sale — buy for best-ever price of $399 on Prime Day

The DJI Flip (RC-N3) Bundle is on sale for $399 at Amazon, down from $499. That's a $100 discount during Prime Day on a sub-249g drone with accessories included.

SAVE $100: As of June 25, the DJI Flip (RC-N3) Bundle is down to $399 at Amazon. That's 20% off over Prime Day.

---

Prime Day is in full swing, and the DJI Flip (RC-N3) Bundle is down to $399 at Amazon. It's reduced from $499, saving you $100 on list price. It’s also the lowest price we’ve seen for this bundle, which doesn’t usually get discounted like this.

The DJI Flip is a compact 4K camera drone that comes as a ready-to-fly bundle with a remote controller, extra safety gear, and a 128GB memory card included, so you’re not missing anything out of the box.

It’s light enough to stay under the 249g limit, which means it doesn’t require FAA registration for recreational use in the U.S., making it easier to travel with and use casually. Despite the size, it’s built to handle outdoor flying with protective propeller guards that help reduce damage if you bump into something.

For shooting, it uses a larger camera sensor that captures more light, resulting in clear, detailed shots in both bright and low-light settings. Video tops out at 4K at up to 60 frames per second, so footage stays smooth and sharp, especially for outdoor scenes like travel or action shots.

It can also track a subject while flying, so the drone can follow a person or object automatically instead of requiring constant manual control. Battery life goes up to around 31 minutes per charge, which is enough for a few solid flight sessions before you need to swap or recharge.

Grab the DJI Flip (RC-N3) Bundle at Amazon before this deal flies off on its own.

Daily Shows Josh Johnson has perfect response to MAGA rapper Anthony Constantino

"The Daily Show" host Josh Johnson unpacks the rap career of Anthony Constantino, who won the Republican House nomination in New York's North Country.

Amateur rapper, boxer, extremely public Trump supporter, and sticker business CEO Anthony Constantino won the Republican House nomination in New York's North Country on Wednesday. And if you haven't heard the businessman-turned-politician's apparently hip hop releases like his album titled Thank You, President Trump, one Constantino says he made "to persuade all Americans to be more patriotic and to see the world as we see it, using the power of music," The Daily Show's Josh Johnson has done it for you.

"As Black people, I know we had our fun, but I think we need to let rap go," the host joked on Wednesday night. "It's over now. We lost it."

Johnson then played footage from Constantino's racist attempt at a diss track against New York mayor Zohran Mamdani, and it's a stream of insults that see rhythm and rhyme as optional.

"Did he just get so mad he forgot he was supposed to be rapping?" said Johnson. "Like, that's not even a song anymore. It's just a guy on the corner going '...and another thing!'"

The 8.3-inch display is sharp and color-accurate, with a smoother feel when scrolling or drawing. It’s small enough to fit in a bag easily, but still big enough that you’re not squinting at it for videos, reading, or work tasks.

Connections is a New York Times word game that's all about finding the "common threads between words." How to solve the puzzle.

The NYT Connections puzzle today is not too difficult if you're a science geek.

Connections is the one of the most popular New York Times word games that's captured the public's attention. The game is all about finding the "common threads between words." And just like Wordle, Connections resets after midnight and each new set of words gets trickier and trickier—so we've served up some hints and tips to get you over the hurdle.

If you just want to be told today's puzzle, you can jump to the end of this article for today's Connections solution. But if you'd rather solve it yourself, keep reading for some clues, tips, and strategies to assist you.

What is Connections?

The NYT's latest daily word game has become a social media hit. The Times credits associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu with helping to create the new word game and bringing it to the publications' Games section. Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake—players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.

Prime Day is fully underway, and the Bluetti Elite 30 V2 portable power station just dropped to $199 at Amazon. That's down from $299, saving you $100 and bringing it to its lowest price we've seen this year.

Whether it ends up as a backup during outages or something you toss in the car for trips and camping weekends, this feels like one of those purchases that suddenly becomes useful the moment you have it.

This isn't one of those huge power stations that live in a garage and need two hands to move. At under 10 pounds, the Bluetti Elite 30 V2 is compact enough to toss in a car, or stash away as an emergency backup without giving up a bunch of space.

It can handle everyday devices like phones, laptops, lights, speakers, routers, and portable fridges, with enough room for occasional use of higher-draw items like a small kettle, toaster, or CPAP machine. It also recharges fairly quickly, reaching most of its battery in under an hour when plugged into a wall outlet, so you aren't waiting around all day to top it back up.

One of the more useful features here is the backup mode that automatically kicks in if power suddenly cuts out. That's particularly handy for things like internet equipment, work setups, or devices you don't want unexpectedly shutting off during an outage.

Grab the Bluetti Elite 30 V2 on Amazon before future-you wishes past-you had planned ahead.

Netflixs Avatar: The Last Airbender does right by Toph — except for one huge omission

Netflix's "Avatar: The Last Airbender" finally brings Toph (Miya Cech) to live action, and it's (mostly) a success.

Netflix's Avatar: The Last Airbender brings blind earthbending master Toph Beifong (Miya Cech) to live action for the first time ever. And while I had serious doubts, the series actually manages to do justice to the fan-favorite character, originally voiced by Michaela Jill Murphy (also known as Jessie Flower).

While Netflix's Avatar: The Last Airbender unfortunately flattened characters like Aang (Gordon Cormier) and Katara (Kiawentiio) in its first season, it allows Toph's wise-cracking personality to shine through right from the jump. She slings jokes as often as she slings boulders at her opponents, with Cech deftly capturing both Toph's brash confidence and unique physicality.

Avatar: The Last Airbender pays homage to several of Toph's most iconic moments from the animated series, recreating her seismic sense, her distinct earthbending moves, and even her many, many blind jokes. At times, it even builds on the character in fun ways, like staging a montage full of her nicknames for Aang (Twinkle Toes reigns supreme, obviously), or pitting her in a haiku battle with Sokka (Ian Ousley) that dives into why she puts up such a tough exterior.

However, there's one major aspect of Toph's live-action debut that falls seriously short, and that's the show's treatment of Earth Rumble VI.

Avatar: The Last Airbender's live-action Earth Rumble VI fails Toph.

In both versions of Avatar: The Last Airbender, the earthbending smackdown known as Earth Rumble VI is Toph's emphatic introduction to Aang, Katara, and Sokka. Over the course of several rounds, they watch the formidable fighter known as the Boulder take down equally formidable opponents like the Big Bad Hippo, the Gopher, and Fire Nation Man. (Who should, as Sokka puts it, go back to the Fire Nation.)

By the end of it, the Boulder seems almost unbeatable — that is, until Toph manages to send him packing with just two moves. It's a clean way to prove just how powerful she is, but the animated series doesn't stop there. In order to stop Aang from being kidnapped and ransomed to the Fire Nation, Toph unleashes against the entire crew of Earth Rumble VI fighters, Boulder included.

It is, quite frankly, one of the most badass moments of the show, not just because it's Toph showing off why she's the world's greatest earthbender, but because it's her way of revealing her true power to her parents, who always doubted her and considered her frail due to her blindness.

Unfortunately, the live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender cuts this final fight completely. In fact, it gets rid of every Earth Rumble VI fighter who isn't the Boulder. The omission, likely due to budget constraints and the fact that this episode was already a mash-up of several others, stings. It downgrades Toph's introduction from a full-on welcome bash to the TV equivalent of a cordial handshake.

On top of all that, losing the rest of the Earth Rumble VI fighters means that Avatar: The Last Airbender misses out on a showcase of the versatility of earthbending. The Earth Rumble VI fighters burrow through earth, shake entire platforms, and incorporate wrestling moves into their repertoire, creating one of the most memorable fights of the show. Live-action Toph's head-to-head match with the Boulder is fun, but it lacks the same style and scale of her fights in the animated show. (See also: the series cutting Toph and the rest of Team Avatar's absolute rout of the Earth King's guards from the original.)

Avatar: The Last Airbender's trimming of Earth Rumble VI is symptomatic of the show's larger problem: It will never be able to match the fluidity, rhythm, and magnitude of the animated show's bending fight scenes, so it doesn't attempt to execute them.

Of course, fans of the original will notice what's missing anyway, which will in turn make them long for the show they already know. In the end, that longing ties back to the question that's been plaguing Netflix's Avatar: The Last Airbender since it was announced: Why remake something that was already so untouchable in the first place?

Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 is now streaming on Netflix.

Netflixs Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2: Your ultimate guide to every episode mash-up

Netflix's "Avatar: The Last Airbender" combines several episodes from the original series. But which ones? We've got you covered.

Netflix's live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 takes on the original show's Book Two: Earth, bringing with it fan favorite Toph (Miya Cech) and Ba Sing Se's court intrigue.

However, as with any adaptation, Avatar: The Last Airbender makes some serious changes from its source material. Most notably, it mashes up several of the original show's episodes, condensing 20 half-hour-long episodes' worth of story into seven hour-long episodes. This is nothing new: The first season followed the same path.

But which episodes get the mash-up treatment in Season 2? (Spoiler alert: If you like swamps or deserts, you're out of luck.) From "The Blind Bandit" to "The Tales of Ba Sing Se," we've put together the ultimate guide to what episodes appear in Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2, along with the biggest differences between the shows. Saddle up your flying bison, and let's dive right in.

Episode 1: "Somewhere Safe"

Episodes covered:

• "Winter Solstice, Part 2: Avatar Roku" (Book 1, episode 8)

• "Return to Omashu" (Book 2, episode 3)

• "Avatar Day" (Book 2, episode 5)

• "The Serpent's Pass" (Book 2, episode 12)

• "The Painted Lady" (Book 3, episode 3)

Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 kicks off with one hell of a mash-up, incorporating plot points from all three seasons into its premiere. Drawing from "Return to Omashu," Aang (Gordon Cormier) heads back to a Fire Nation-occupied Omashu to try to rescue Bumi (Utkarsh Ambudkar) and recruit him to be his earthbending teacher. Like in the animated series, Bumi refuses but tells Aang to look for someone who knows how to wait and listen. Unlike in the animated series, we miss out on a big fight between Team Avatar and Azula (Elizabeth Yu), Mai (Thalia Tran), and Ty Lee (Momona Tamada). (And we also miss out on Bumi's metal cage.)

From there, the show jumps right into "The Serpent's Pass," covering Team Avatar's perilous journey towards Ba Sing Se. In the original series, this episode fell in the middle of Season 2, while Appa was missing. Here, it's moved all the way up, hinting at the many major adaptation changes to come.

On the Zuko (Dallas Liu) side of things, "Somewhere Safe" draws from his parting from Uncle Iroh (Paul Sun-Hyung Lee) in "Avatar Day." Elsewhere, mechanist Sai (Danny Pudi) reveals that the return of Sozin's Comet is imminent, a task that fell to Avatar Roku (C.S. Lee) in Season 1 of the animated show. Finally, Avatar: The Last Airbender cooks up a new legend for the Painted Lady, Katara's (Kiawentiio) alter ego in Season 3 of the original. In the live-action show, the Painted Lady isn't just tied to a river spirit. It's also a kind of flower. Learning this in episode 1 plants the seeds in Katara's mind for her vigilante benevolence later this season. — Belen Edwards, Entertainment Reporter

Episode 2: "A Fight, Once Begun"

Episodes covered:

• "The Blind Bandit" (Book 2, episode 6)

• "Zuko Alone" (Book 2, episode 7)

• "The Chase" (Book 2, episode 8)

Episode 2 is all about everyone's favorite earthbender (sorry, Bumi). At long last, Toph Beifong is here! And her introduction is based on "The Blind Bandit," an animated episode that shares its name with Toph's secret identity from Earth Rumble, the Earth Kingdom's WWE. The major change here? In the animated series, we get round after round of earthbending fights before Aang faces Toph in the ring, and later, Team Avatar fights alongside Toph in the ring against The Boulder and friends. Neither fight happens in the Netflix series, just Toph vs. The Boulder (Kelemete Misipeka).

Episode 2 shares the spotlight, putting Zuko front and center in an adaptation of the defining Zuko episode, "Zuko Alone." Here, the Fire Nation prince is a solo fugitive, plagued by flashbacks of his childhood and his mother’s tragic fate. Both the live-action and animated episodes cover Zuko’s stay with Earth Kingdom locals after protecting them from the army, and the couple he finds in the desert. In the animated series, Zuko leaves them be, but he's overcome with guilt by his choice to rob them in the Netflix series.

In the other Fire Nation sibling corner, Netflix's Avatar: The Last Airbender adapts nail-biter "The Chase," in which Azula tracks the Avatar with Mai and Ty Lee. In the animated series, Team Avatar is chased by a speeding tank containing the Fire Nation trio, riding on lizards. In the live-action, there's no real chase (or lizards, sadly), but we do get Team Avatar meeting Zuko and Azula face-to-face in the village standoff. — Shannon Connellan, Senior Editor

Episode 3: "City of Walls and Secrets"

Episodes covered:

• "Bitter Work" (Book 2, episode 9)

• "City of Walls and Secrets" (Book 2, episode 14)

• "The Library" (Book 2, episode 10)

• "The Desert" (Book 2, episode 11)

• "The Serpent's Pass" (Book 2, episode 12)

• "The Painted Lady" (Book 3, episode 3)

Episode 3, "City of Walls and Secrets," draws its name from an episode from the animated series, so it only makes since that it covers much of the same ground. Like in the original Avatar: The Last Airbender, this episode is Team Avatar's introduction to Ba Sing Se, as well as cultural minister Long Feng (Chin Han) and the uncanny Joo Dee (Amanda Zhou). While Netflix's version spins up new conflict with the Earth Kingdom army and makes Long Feng way less menacing off the bat, it also hits several of the same beats, including the Earth King's (Justin Chien) lavish party.

Here, we get a few references to other Season 2 episodes: The introduction of Professor Zei (Hoa Xuande) kickstarts the show's search for Wan Shi Tong's library in "The Library," while Sokka's (Ian Ousley) love of cactus juice is pulled straight from "The Desert." (Yes, we do get "Nothing's quenchier!")

This episode sees Zuko cross paths with Jet on a ferry to Ba Sing Se, which originally happens in "The Serpent's Pass." It also covers some of Aang's difficult earthbending training from "Bitter Earth," before kicking off Katara's Painted Lady era in earnest. — B.E.

Episode 4: "The Water Falls, The Stones Emerge"

Episodes covered:

• "The Deserter" (Book 1, episode 16)

• "The Tales of Ba Sing Se" (Book 2, episode 15)

• "The Earth King" (Book 2, episode 18)

At last, we've arrived at "The Tales of Ba Sing Se," an episode of vignettes in the animated series set in the Earth Kingdom capital. From Sokka's haiku battle to Iroh's devastating memory of his late son, the Netflix series covers multiple strands of this legendary episode (not Aang's zoo jailbreak though).

We also meet Fire Nation defector Jeong Jeong (Terry Chen) in this episode, the focus of the animated show's Season 1 episode "The Deserter." In the Netflix series, we meet him living in Ba Sing Se's Fire Nation district, where Zuko warns him of an impending attack. While Jeong Jeong's not named in the live-action series, we'd recognize that scar and world-weary attitude anywhere.

Plus, we get a tiny slice of "The Earth King" in this episode, which covers Azula's ruse to get into Ba Sing Se with Mai and Ty Lee dressed as Kyoshi Warriors. — S.C.

Episode 5: "Ten Thousand Things"

Episodes covered:

• "The Chase" (Book 2, episode 8)

• "The Library" (Book 2, episode 10)

• "Lake Laogai" (Book 2, episode 17)

• "The Guru" (Book 2, episode 19)

It's library time! Avatar: The Last Airbender sends Team Avatar and Professor Zei back into the spirit world for a pretty faithful adaptation of Season 2's "The Library." There are some key differences, though. The library is in Ba Sing Se instead of the desert, because Netflix's Avatar: The Last Airbender avoids deserts more than Ba Sing Se citizens avoid conversations about war. Also, Jet is here now! Not for much longer, though. He sacrifices himself in a fight against Wan Shi Tong, dying like he did in the original's "Lake Laogai." Unlike in the animated series, his death here is actually really clear.

"Ten Thousand Things" also pulls from the beginnings of Azula's Ba Sing Se coup in "The Guru." Plus, before Team Avatar heads to the library, this episode features another nod to "The Chase" with Iroh and Toph's sweet conversation. In the original series, the two share a cup of tea on the road. Netflix's version transposes that discussion to Iroh's tea shop, and the effects are no less heartwarming. — B.E.

Episode 6: "The Parable of the Two Dragons"

Episodes covered:

• "The Desert" (Book 2, episode 11)

• "The Tales of Ba Sing Se" (Book 2, episode 15)

• "The Earth King" (Book 2, episode 18)

• "The Guru" (Book 2, episode 19)

With Appa missing and Aang distraught, this episode draws from "The Desert," an ambling trip from the animated series in which Team Avatar are stuck in a sprawling sandy landscape after their escapade from "The Library." (In the Netflix show, they're still in Ba Sing Se.) "The Desert" episode also covers Uncle Iroh's revealed involvement in the Order of the White Lotus, which Netflix's version turns into an emotional scene of forgiveness between Iroh and the Fire Nation deserters.

Episode 6 also covers a lot of two episodes: "The Earth King" and "The Guru." Zuko's fever dream of two dragons comes from "The Earth King," although Netflix's version gives the dream a puppet makeover. "The Earth King" is also the animated episode where you'll find Team Avatar's meeting with the Earth Kingdom's enigmatic leader.

Zuko's recovery and his starting work at Iroh's tea house come from the next animated episode, "The Guru," which also covers more of Azula's infiltration of Ba Sing Se, her plotted coup with Long Feng, and the team's continued mission in the palace.

Lastly, we get a tiny glimpse of the fan-favorite "Jinko" ship from "The Tales of Ba Sing Se" in this episode. In the animated series, Jin is a regular at Iroh's tea shop and takes Zuko on a cute date. (In the Netflix series, she's an employee). — S.C.

Episode 7: "Something Broken"

Episodes covered:

• "Appa's Lost Days" (Book 2, episode 16)

• "Lake Laogai" (Book 2, episode 17)

• "The Guru" (Book 2, episode 19)

• "The Crossroads of Destiny" (Book 2, episode 20)

Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 ends with the combination of "Lake Laogai" and "The Crossroads of Destiny." That's because the crystal caves from "The Crossroads of Destiny" now double as the spooky underground hypnosis facility of "Lake Laogai." (Notably missing? An actual lake!) This episode hits all the "Crossroads of Destiny" highlights, from Zuko and Katara's cave conversation — this is a big season for Zutara shippers! — to the explosive final fight. It also gives us a glimpse of the Dai Li's terrifying brainwashing techniques.

Before all that, though, it'll make you tear up with a flashback to Appa and Aang's first meeting, as seen in the animated show's heartbreaking "Appa's Lost Days." And of course, you can't end Season 2 without Toph inventing metalbending, which originally happens in "The Guru." She's the greatest earthbender in the world for a reason! — B.E.

Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 is now streaming on Netflix.

Whats new to streaming this week? (June 26, 2026)

What’s new to streaming for the week of June 26, 2026, on Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu, and more? We've got you covered.

Looking for something great to watch at home? Streaming subscribers are spoiled for choice between Hulu, Netflix, HBO Max, Disney+, Apple TV, Prime Video, Shudder, Paramount+, Peacock, and more. And that's before you even look at the vast libraries of movies and television programs within each streamer!

Don't be overwhelmed or waste an hour scrolling through your services to determine what to watch. We've got your back, whatever your mood. Mashable offers watch guides for all of the above, broken down by genre: comedy, thriller, horror, documentary, and animation, among others. But if you're seeking something brand new (or just new to streaming), we've got you covered there, too.

13. Power Ballad

Writer/director John Carney (Flora and Son) returns with another movie about where music and feelings collide. Critics out of SXSW cheered his latest, but in my review, I yearned for his earlier films, like Once and Sing Street, which took bigger swings and were wonderful because of that.

Power Ballad stars Paul Rudd as Rick Power, a middle-aged frontman for a wedding band who thinks his dream of rock stardom is long gone. That is, until a fateful meeting with a former boy band member who's going solo turns things around. The song they wrote together is a hit! The only problem is that Rick's getting none of the credit. Nick Jonas stars as this pop idol. And the two are fun together, but unfortunately most of the hijinks of this dramedy keep them apart. — Kristy Puchko, Entertainment Editor

Starring: Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Jack Reynor, and Havana Rose Liu

How to watch: Power Ballad is now available for rent or purchase on Prime Video.

12. See You at Work Tomorrow!

Prime Video's new K-drama is one for the employees who turn up to work while going through a break-up. Directed by Cho Eun-sol and based on McQueen Studio's Kakao Webtoon, See You at Work Tomorrow! is a workplace rom-com simmering within the daily grind. Park Ji-hyun (You and Everything Else) leads as Cha Ji-yoon, a burnt-out corporate product planner whose ability to clock in, deliver excellence, and clock out while compartmentalising heartbreak deserves a raise in itself. She's noticed by coworker Kang Si-woo, played by Seo In-guk (Boyfriend on Demand), and you'd better believe there's tension — and work to be done. — Shannon Connellan, Senior Editor

Starring: Seo In-guk, Park Ji-hyun, and Kang Mi-na

How to watch: See You At Work Tomorrow is now streaming on Prime Video.

11. Billie Eilish – Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour

Icons of music and movies collide in this supersized concert film, as Billie Eilish teams up with James Cameron to bring her sold-out Hit Me Hard and Soft tour to movie theaters — and now to streaming.

The film offers up a behind-the-scenes glimpse into Eilish's life on tour, as well as electrifying footage of her performances, all captured in 3D. Whether you want to hear more about Eilish's creative process (she co-directed the film with Cameron) or just headbang along to "bad guy," Hit Me Hard and Soft promises to be "The Greatest" treat for the superstar's fans this summer.* — Belen Edwards, Entertainment Reporter

Starring: Billie Eilish, James Cameron, and Finneas O'Connell

How to watch: Billie Eilish – Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour is now available for rent or purchase on Prime Video.

10. The Welcome Table

If the headlines about record-breaking heat across the globe haven't been a stern reminder that the climate crisis has very real impacts for humans, watch The Welcome Table. Gasland director Josh Fox's HBO documentary tracks stories of people displaced by the effects of climate change, whether by rising sea levels, drought, or extreme weather events (which are intensified by climate change).

Gathered at a long table, Fox interviewed those on the front line of the crisis, from aid workers to activists and climate refugees themselves, to understand how entire communities are being forced from their homes — and the uneasy plight awaiting them in their new one. And they're a few among many; it's estimated that there will be between 25 million to 1 billion environmental migrants by 2050. — S.C.

How to watch: The Welcome Table is now streaming on HBO Max.

9. Little Brother

Like your comedy crude and gleefully stupid? Little Brother is eager to please in that regard.

John Cena stars as Rudd, a preppy New York City real estate agent who seems to have it all: a beautiful wife (Michelle Monaghan), two sons, a big house, and a successful career. But he wants more, including impressing his ultra-famous older brother (Christopher Meloni) and reality TV stardom. He's on the brink of both when his little brother — as in, a kid he mentored decades ago as part of a charity outreach — comes crashing back into his life. Kooky comedian Eric André stars little brother Marcus, who has a lot of personality and deep thoughts on everything from family to Hoobastank and rim jobs. Naturally, their reunion will bring a lot of chaos and laughs, but most of the "OMG!" variety. — K.P.

Starring: John Cena, Eric André, Michelle Monaghan, and Christopher Meloni

How to watch: Little Brother debuts on Netflix on June 26.

8. In the Hand of Dante

American filmmaker Julian Schnabel has forged his career by exploring the lives of artists in films like Basquiat, Before Night Falls, and At Eternity's Gate. However, his latest does double duty, paralleling the lives of Dante Alighieri, the famed author of The Divine Comedy, with that of American journalist Nick Tosches, who wrote the novel In the Hand of Dante in 2002.

Schnabel paints 14th-century Italy in vividly colorful sequences, where Dante (Oscar Isaac) seeks inspiration for the work that will define his legacy. In stark black-and-white sequences, a fictional narrative plays out, where Tosches (also played by Isaac) gets tangled up with some mafiosos who want him to verify the authenticity of a manuscript believed to be Dante's original draft.

Between Frankenstein and Beef Season 2, Isaac has been making some fascinating media at Netflix. So, we're intrigued by what he's got here. — K.P.

Starring: Oscar Isaac, Gal Gadot, Gerard Butler, John Malkovich, Louis Cancelmi, Sabrina Impacciatore, Benjamin Clementine, Martin Scorsese, Al Pacino, and Jason Momoa

How to watch: In the Hand of Dante is now streaming on Netflix.

7. Avatar: The Last Airbender, Season 2

It's Toph time! Netflix's Avatar: The Last Airbender returns with an adaptation of the animated show's Book Two: Earth, which means everyone's favorite earthbending master, Toph Beifong (Miya Cech), is making her live-action debut. With her by his side, can Avatar Aang (Gordon Cormier) and the rest of the Gaang help rally the Earth Kingdom against the Fire Nation?

Like the first season of Netflix's Avatar: The Last Airbender, Season 2 is perfectly fine, if muddled in its wild adaptation choices. (We're doing Season 3's "Painted Lady" this season? Really?) However, it manages to hit some solid highs, including a moving adaptation of "Zuko Alone," fronted by cast standout Dallas Liu. Elsewhere, Elizabeth Yu shines as a deliciously evil Azula, and Cech nails Toph's humor. But smushing Book Two's rich story into seven episodes results in an oddly truncated season of TV — one that's serviceable in a vacuum but pales in comparison to the animated original. — B.E.

Starring: Gordon Cormier, Kiawentiio, Ian Ousley, Dallas Liu, Miya Cech, Elizabeth Yu, Momona Tamada, Thalia Tran, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, Maria Zhang, and Daniel Dae Kim

How to watch: Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 premieres June 25 on Netflix.

6. Queens of the Dead

Tina Romero struts in the footsteps of late father George A. Romero by creating a zombie movie that pays tribute to his Night of the Living Dead movies, but through a determinedly comedic and queer lens.

Queens of the Dead follows the hilarious mayhem that breaks out when a zombie contagion hits Bushwick's queer night club scene. Katy O'Brian headlines as a party promoter who's given her blood sweat and tears to build a safe space to dance, flirt, and revel. But when an undead drag queen hits the dance floor, her life is also on the line. Offering a mindful and willfully silly array of queer archetypes, Queens of the Dead is a movie by queer horror fans for queer horror fans. Or as I put in my review, "Drenched in neon, steeped in attitude, and radiant with queer joy, this movie is beyond fine; it's fierce, funny, and fabulous."* — K.P.

Starring: Katy O'Brian, Jaquel Spivey, Riki Lindhome, Jack Haven, Cheyenne Jackson, and Margaret Cho

How to watch: Queens of the Dead begins streaming on Hulu on June 26.

5. Savage House

You've never staged a dinner party like this. A bombastic commentary on 18th-century English extravagance mid-war and plague, Savage House is the latest from writer/director Peter Glanz (Captain America: Brave New World). As the Jacobite uprising rages and smallpox decimates the population, aristocrats Sir Chauncey Savage (a histrionic Richard E. Grant) and Lady Savage (a wonderfully deadpan Claire Foy) land a golden opportunity for social climbing. But they've squandered their wealth, and the servants are fed up. Can they pull it off? Should we even be cheering for them? Is Sir Chauncey... bleeding?

As I wrote in my review, "Savage House will inevitably find itself compared to Yorgos Lanthimos' The Favourite, as two 18th-century dark comedies featuring gout-ridden aristocrats and underlings jostling for a sliver of power. However, Glanz's film finds its own inflamed, leech-dotted footing, as a rambunctious cautionary tale of the cost and moral quandaries of 'rattling the social ladder.'" — S.C.

Starring: Richard E. Grant, Claire Foy, Jack Farthing, Bel Powley, and Kíla Lord Cassidy

How to watch: Savage House is now available for purchase on Prime Video.

4. Avatar: Fire and Ash

Is your TV the most rewarding way to experience the Academy Award–winning visual effects of James Cameron's Avatar: Fire and Ash? No, probably not. But will you still bask in the glory of Pandora? Absolutely.

In the third installment of the Avatar franchise, Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) and his family are once again on the run from Colonel Miles Quaritch (Stephen Lang). This time, though, he has new allies in the form of the Ash People, a new Na'vi clan who worship fire and destruction. Their leader Varang (Oona Chaplin) is just the kind of spark these films need to keep growing, yet, as I wrote in my review, "Fire and Ash cannibalizes prior Avatar films' best set pieces and story beats, resulting in a film that, while undeniably spectacular, relies too heavily on its prior installments, as opposed to the new Pandoran elements that could make it truly special."* — B.E.

Starring: Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldaña, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Oona Chaplin, Kate Winslet, Cliff Curtis, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Edie Falco, Brendan Cowell, Jemaine Clement, Giovanni Ribisi, David Thewlis, Britain Dalton, Jack Champion, Trinity Jo-Li Bliss, Jamie Flatters, Bailey Bass, Filip Geljo, Duane Evans Jr., Matt Gerald, and Dileep Rao

How to watch: Avatar: Fire and Ash is now streaming on Disney+.

3. Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness

Curb Your Enthusiasm meets U.S. history in Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness, created by Larry David and Jeff Schaffer and executive produced by President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama. The series celebrates the U.S.'s 250th anniversary with sketches that put a Larry David spin on key moments from American history, like the Wright Brothers' first flight or Lewis and Clark's expedition west. In addition to David, Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness features a wide range of guest stars like Bill Hader, Susie Essman, Kathryn Hahn, and Obama himself, making for a star-studded look back through time. — B.E.

Starring: Larry David, Bill Hader, Kathryn Hahn, Jon Hamm, Sean Hayes, Jerry Seinfeld, and Chris Parnell

How to watch: Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness debuts on June 26 on HBO Max.

2. I Love Boosters

Following the critical acclaim of Sorry to Bother You and I'm A Virgo, celebrated rapper/filmmaker Boots Riley returns with the epic anti-capitalism satire I Love Boosters.

Keke Palmer stars as an aspiring fashion designer who's making ends meet by boosting (shoplifting) designer clothes and selling them for low, low prices. She and her thieving friends consider themselves "fashion-forward filanthropists [sic]," but fashion titan Christie Smith (Demi Moore) sees them as "low-class urban bitches." So a class war is on, with plenty of eye-popping fits and bonkers physical comedy.

Out of the film's SXSW premiere, I cheered, "Like the fashion in the film, Riley blends whatever fits his vision without apology. By delivering something this messy and marvelous, Riley makes a statement about the glory to be found outside the box. And make no mistake: I Love Boosters is glorious."* — K.P.

Starring: Keke Palmer, Naomi Ackie, Taylour Paige, Poppy Liu, Eiza Gonzalez, LaKeith Stanfield, Will Poulter, and Demi Moore

How to watch: I Love Boosters is now available for rent or purchase on Prime Video.

Best of streaming this week: The Bear, Season 5

FX's Emmy–winning The Bear comes to a close this week, with a fifth and final season promised to be filled with more restaurant panic (and life lessons) than ever before. Are you ready? Your answer had better be "Yes, chef."

Season 5 of The Bear picks up the morning after the Season 4 finale, which saw Carmy (Jeremy Allen White) quitting the restaurant industry and leaving the Bear to Sydney (Ayo Edebiri), Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), and Natalie (Abby Elliott). Faced with no money, Uncle Jimmy's (Oliver Platt) plans to sell the Bear, and a massive storm bearing down on Chicago, this crew needs to pull out all the stops for what could be their last service. (Don't worry; based on the trailer, Carmy is back, even after quitting.) Sounds stressful, which means it sounds like The Bear. — B.E.

Starring: Jeremy Allen White, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Ayo Edebiri, Lionel Boyce, Liza Colón-Zayas, Abby Elliott, Matty Matheson, and Edwin Lee Gibson

How to watch: The Bear Season 5 premieres in its entirety June 25 at 9 p.m. ET on Hulu. The first two episodes air at 9 p.m. ET on FX, with a new episode airing every Thursday at 9 p.m. ET.

AdultFriendFinder vs. hookup apps: How their privacy policies compare

A guide to hookup app privacy policies, including AdultFriendFinder, Tinder, and Pure.

It's no secret that the world of dating apps and websites involves the collection of an enormous amount of data. How could it be otherwise? You're voluntarily telling these companies how old you are, where you live, what you're looking for, and maybe even how much money you earn or your level of education. 

All of this may just be "personal details" to you, or to the people you're trying to match with, but to the companies that own the sites and apps you're using, this is valuable information that can be used to serve you ads or even sold to third-party data collection companies. 

If you're privacy-minded, or if you just want to do your due diligence before you commit your time and maybe even your money to a company, it's worth knowing about each app or site's privacy policy and how it does or doesn't protect your information. 

Here's a quick overview of the data protection policies of some of the most common hookup apps:

AdultFriendFinder privacy policy

AdultFriendFinder is unusual in the constellation of hookup apps and websites for the simple reason that it allows and even encourages its members to post nude photographs and videos, so as you can imagine, their privacy policy should be both transparent and robust.

Thankfully, they are unequivocal about what they won't do with your private information: "We DO NOT sell, rent, or give any personally identifiable information about you to any third party without your permission." 

One thing they do note, however, is that if you opt to log in to AFF through a third-party authorization site like Facebook or Google, those companies will have access to your profile name, email address and profile photo, which is something to keep in mind, especially if you don't want other people knowing you're using this site.

Tinder privacy policy

Tinder has one of the more robust privacy policies we've come across, but the impression it gives the reader is that it was written by lawyers less to inform you, the user, of your privacy rights and more to indemnify Tinder for how it uses your data. 

To begin with, they operate under an "opt out" rather than an "opt in" paradigm, so the default Tinder account is set up to allow lots of data collection, including "access to specific types of device data such as phone contacts, pictures, advertising identifiers and location services," on top of all the data you're already voluntarily sharing with Tinder. 

And unlike AFF, which was so emphatic about their refusal to sell your data that they resorted to using caps lock, Tinder uses slippery legal language: "If we 'sell' or 'share' your data or use it for 'targeted advertising,' we will provide an opt out in the 'Your Privacy Choices' link in the footer of our website and in the Settings menu of the app." The sentence begins with a conditional and then puts quotation marks around two words (sell and share) that have a pretty commonly understood meaning — not a good sign! 

If you've been a long-time Tinder user and are suddenly concerned with what the app might know about you, we recommend you request a copy of your personal data, which the site allows you to download as a ZIP file, so you can see exactly what they've collected on you and decide for yourself if you want to keep using the app. 

Pure privacy policy

What about Pure, the privacy-first app that boasts about deleting your message history after 24 hours? Their privacy policy is lengthy and comprehensive, but it's also less precise than it could be. 

For example, when discussing what data Pure shares with third parties, it prominently names "service providers" as an entity that might receive your data, but they bury the lede in a lengthy list of who exactly qualifies as a service provider: "providers of telecommunications systems, email, database, hosting, customer-communication tools, outsourcing, payment, user verification, advertising, marketing, analytics, anti-spam service, security, fraud prevention, and trust and safety moderation."

Pure acknowledges that these third-party services "may also use your Personal Data for their own purposes," but then also states that, "We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your Personal Data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your Personal Data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions." Pure didn't respond to Mashable's request for comment about what this means.

And if you're a California resident, Pure uses an "opt out" rather than an "opt in" approach to data collection, so if you do plan on using the app, it's worth thoroughly exploring your account settings to ensure you're not sharing more data with the company than you would like.

T-Mobile is giving away the Apple iPhone 17 for free — how to claim on Prime Day

How to get the Apple iPhone for free. Score the iPhone 17e, iPhone 17, or iPhone 17 Pro for free with T-Mobile on Prime Day.

TL;DR: The iPhone 17e, iPhone 17, or iPhone 17 Pro are free right now with T-Mobile. Here's everything you need to know to qualify for this promotion over Prime Day.

---

Prime Day is officially underway, with deals on MacBooks, AirPods, iPads, and just about everything else from Apple. But do you know where Amazon can sometimes be found lacking? Deals on iPhones never seem to be that great.

We're not fussed, because you can find some truly special deals right now on T-Mobile. And we're not talking about price cuts. We're talking about getting your hands on the latest iPhone for free. Yes, there are some hoops to jump through. But this is a free iPhone 17 we're talking about. We're more than happy to jump through anything T-Mobile throws at us.

T-Mobile has dropped a fresh batch of free iPhone deals for Prime Day:

• Apple iPhone Air — free when you trade in your eligible phone on an Experience More or Experience Beyond plan.

• Apple iPhone 17e — free when you port your number over from a competitor and activate a new line on almost any T-Mobile postpaid service plan.

• Apple iPhone 17 — free when you trade in your eligible phone on an Experience More or Experience Beyond plan.

• Apple iPhone 17 Pro — free when you switch to T-Mobile and bring your number on an Experience More or Experience Beyond plan.

We did say there are some hoops. T-Mobile isn't just handing over the latest iPhone lineup without some strings attached. The retail cost of your iPhone is offset by 24 consecutive monthly bill credits. Your monthly statement will show a charge for the financing of the phone, immediately followed by an equal credit balancing that charge to $0.

You are essentially entering a 24-month commitment with the network. If you decide to move to another carrier or upgrade to the iPhone 18 before the end of your contract, the remaining unpaid balance on the phone will be due immediately.

The best Prime Day alternatives 2026: Best Buy, Target, Walmart, and more

The best rival sales to Amazon Prime Day in 2026, including Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, Ulta, and more.

While Black Friday still remains top dog when it comes to online shopping holidays, Amazon Prime Day follows close behind. Despite it being Amazon's official shopping celebration for Prime members, lots of other retailers run major counter-sales to try to cash in on some of that consumer traffic. But can any of these Prime Day alternative sales actually compete with the real deal? Which rival sales are worth shopping? We've broken it all down for you.

BTW, Amazon Prime Day runs from June 23 through 26 in 2026. Most competing sales overlap these dates in some capacity, but many last longer and/or begin before Amazon's big day. Whether you want to expand your horizons this Prime Day, score all the best deals across retailers, or avoid Amazon altogether, here's a master list of all of the best Prime Day rival sales to shop, with key dates and top deals to watch.

Best Buy

• Key dates to know: June 22 - June 28

• Top deals to watch: laptops, TVs, gaming gear, headphones, small appliances

Best Buy is running a weeklong "Tech Fest" sale from June 22 to 28 in 2026. It's historically Amazon's biggest competitor when it comes to tech deals, with Amazon one-upping Best Buy by literal cents in many cases. Still, if you're looking for laptops, TVs, gaming gear, or small appliances, Best Buy is the spot to shop. The retailer's inventory is more comprehensive in these departments overall. Not to mention, Best Buy often stocks older devices that Amazon no longer carries. For instance, check out this $300 discount on a specced out Apple M4 MacBook Air.

Walmart

• Key dates to know: June 22 - June 28

• Top deals to watch: home goods, floor care, toys, outdoor gear, budget TVs, Apple accessories

The competing Prime Day Walmart Summer Deals event runs from June 22 to 28, matching Best Buy's sale. Walmart's past sales have highlighted some excellent deals on Apple accessories, budget TVs (the cheapest QLED TV we saw last Prime Day), floor care from top brands like Dyson and Shark, toys (including Lego), and surprisingly good outdoor gear.

Target

• Key dates to know: June 23 - June 26

• Top deals to watch: kitchen gadgets, books, outdoor gear, back-to-school essentials, clothing

Target is going head-to-head with Amazon this year, with its Circle Deal Days event running from June 23 through 26. Like Amazon, you have to be a Circle member to shop the best deals. Unlike Amazon, it's free to join. As in previous Circle shopping events, this year's counter-Prime Day sale at Target will feature "Deal of the Day" offers, which are only available for 24 hours. Be on the lookout for these each day. Other notable offers include up to 45% off select kitchen gadgets from Cuisinart, Keurig, and Ninja, up to 45% off floor care from Bissell and Hoover, 40% off back-to-school essentials, and 40% off select women's clothing and beauty items.

The Home Depot

• Key dates to know: June 11 - June 24, June 25 - July 8

• Top deals to watch: cordless tools, grills, lawncare, outdoor gear

The Home Depot kicked off a Father's Day sale earlier this month, and it wraps up mid-Prime Day on June 24. From there, things will switch over to a 4th of July sale and run through July 8. If you're looking for cordless tools, lawn care equipment, outdoor cooking gear, or DIY tools and storage, this is the sale to shop. Early deals already include free cordless DeWalt tools, and we're likely to see more free stuff in the coming days.

Best trading card deal

Why we like it

The Magic: The Gathering Avatar: The Last Airbender Beginner Box is already one of the easiest ways to get into MTG, and Amazon’s Prime Day price makes it even easier to jump in: now down to just $26.99 from its $34.99 list price — and even falling below its $25.59 market price determined by TCGplayer.

You’ll get two 20-card tutorial decks, eight themed half-decks, two playboards, two spindown life counters, learn-to-play guides, tokens, and a rules reference booklet. For those new to the Avatar expansion or Magic: The Gathering in general, this is the ideal way for you and a friend to jump in.

Rare Prime Day camping deals are live now : Shop Yeti and Coleman gear on sale

Amazon Prime Day camping deals include Coleman coolers, tents, Anker Solix power stations, and more. As of June 24, Amazon added some rare discounts on Yeti coolers.

Without a doubt, camping is one of the best highlights of summer. Now that we're almost to July, you've probably checked on the condition of camping gear and noticed if anything needs upgrades to finish out the summer. While most of us shop for tech deals during Prime Day, Amazon is showing up for us outdoorsy folks this year. I've found great deals on items that make camping just that much more enjoyable.

From packing along your own shade to a portable power station that'll keep phones charged up, Prime Day has some excellent deals for your next camping trip. I've studied the sale, and these are the top products I'd recommend if you're in the market for camping upgrades during Prime Day.

We will be regularly updating this guide with the best camping deals, so keep checking back. You can also visit our Prime Day 2026 hub for all the latest updates and price drops or our live blog for the most up-to-date deals, news, and stock alerts.

Best Prime Day deal on a camping tent

Why we like it

Experienced Prime Day shoppers know that Amazon always drops some epic deals on Coleman camping tents during Prime Day, and 2026 is no exception. You can also find savings on a Marmot camping tent. However, be warned, some of these deals are one-day only.

More deals on tents

Best portable power station deal

Read Mashable's full review of the Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2.

Why we like it

If you've never packed a portable power station along on a camping trip, prepare for a massive upgrade. Amazon Prime Day has the Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 on sale for $399.99, down from the list price of $799 for a sweet 50% discount.

The Solix C1000 Gen 2 has 1,024Wh of battery capacity for keeping phones charged up as well as earbuds, tablets, the campsite lights, and even the electric griddle. Plus, it can get a full recharge in under 50 minutes, so you're not in huge trouble if you don't remember to charge it up until you're packing the car.

Best solar panel deal

Why we like it

Keep small electronics charged up while camping with zero effort when you pack along the Jackery SolarSaga 40W Mini Solar Panel. It has USB-A and USB-C ports and an IP68 waterproof rating that makes it worthy of any camping or backpacking trip. Plus, it's compact, folding into the size of a book, and it weighs just over four pounds.

Best campsite shelter deal

Why we like it

You woke up at dawn to book the campsite reservation back in February, and when you arrive, it's nothing but full sun. Instead of dealing with a weekend of sunburns, the Shibumi Park Vista Sun Shade Canopy provides portable shade. It's intuitive to set up, weighs under five pounds, and it comfortably seats four people in the shade. The UPF 50+ sun protection is perfect for long summer days at the campground.

Bose is going big on Prime Day: Score QuietComfort headphones for $170 off

Find the best Prime Day deals on Bose. On Amazon, Bose QuietComfort headphones are down to $179.

With Amazon Prime Day now rocking and rolling until June 26, it's a perfect time to grab headphones that can, well, also rock and roll.

That's why we have to point you towards deals on Bose, which deliver some of the best sound — and noise-cancelation — in the audio game. And these Prime Day deals are truly excellent, with the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds reaching their lowest-ever price and both the QuietComfort over-ear headphones and premium QuietComfort Ultra headphones dropping lower than Amazon Spring Sale prices.

We’ll keep tracking deals on headphones as Prime Day rolls on, so if you want Bose discounts specifically, keep checking back on this page throughout the week.

Best Bose headphones deal

Why we like it

The Bose QuietComfort Headphones are a flagship not just for the brand but among audio fans in general. They boast top active noise cancelation with two modes — Quiet mode to shut out external noise and Aware mode that keeps you in tune with your surroundings. The sound is excellent and fully customisable through the EQ settings on the Bose Music app. They also look very stylish — headphones that truly make a statement.

Marked down by almost half for Prime Day, these are now listed at just $179 — that's a mega saving of $170. It's not quite their lowest-ever price but it's not far off.

Best Bose premium headphones deal

Why we like it

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra are a step up in terms of premium features. They give you all the great stuff you get with the regular QuiteComfort cans plus Bose's spatialized audio, a 3D audio technology that puts the sound all around you to create a fully immersive listening experience. The noise cancellation gets an upgrade too. It's not just active but adaptive, which means it responds to noise around you and adjusts ANC levels in real time. The noise cancellation also combines with spatialized audio for next-level Immersion and Cinema modes. W

e've seen them available for less but that's rare. They're now $20 lower than during the Amazon Spring Sale.

Best Bose earbuds deal

Why we like it

If you you prefer earbuds — and you want to snag some premium buds at their best-ever price — look no further than the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds. If you've never used open earbuds before, they're a little different. Instead of sticking in your ear canal, they clip to your ear and immerse you in your sounds via spatialized OpenAudio technology. They don't close you off like regular earbuds — you can still hear the world around you — but no one will be able to hear what you're listening to.

And with a current saving of $100, it's a great time to give this innovative audio tech a whirl.

The best creator-approved Prime Day deals: Grab a new mic or selfie light on sale

Shop the best creator-approved Prime Day deals. From mics to heavy-duty mounts, here's the influencer gear worth buying.

If you've been Googling how to become an influencer (or the like), you're def not alone. With the pressure of AI taking our jobs and everyone and their mother becoming "internet famous," it's hard not to wonder what it takes to get on that influencer train and make some passive income of your own.

The good news? You only need a few (super affordable) gadgets to get started, and one you've already got — your smartphone!

And since Prime Day is happening right now, you can get other stuff (e.g., a ring light, mic, headphones) for way cheaper than usual. I dug through all the garbage listings to find the creator gear deals that are worth hitting "add to cart" on today.

Insta360 Snap Selfie Screen with Light

The Insta360 Snap Selfie Screen with Light is pretty much exactly what it sounds like: a little magnetic screen that pops onto the back of your phone so you can frame up high-res selfies and vlogs using your phone’s rear camera.

It has a 3.5-inch touchscreen that mirrors your phone's display in real time, and this specific edition includes a built-in light co-developed with beauty-tech brand AMIRO — it features three colors and five brightness levels that are supposed to make your skin look ahhmazing even in poor lighting.

DJI Mic Mini

If you don't have a mic yet, you need to hop on this deal before it's gone. The DJI Mic Mini is one of the best upgrades you can grab if you want to make TikToks or vlogs without draining your bank account.

The tiny clip-on mic weighs just 10 grams, so it looks super discreet on camera. Plus, it’s basically idiot-proof: just plug the receiver straight into your phone, and you're ready to go. It has a 10-hour battery life and comes with built-in noise cancellation, which, according to Mashable Lead Shopping Reporter Bethany Allard, is impressive.

"With and without the noise-cancelling feature, the mic picked up my voice while barely picking up the sound of wind — birds and car engines were lost in many cases," Allard writes in her review. "To my surprise, the mic also somehow avoided picking up the piano playing, despite the fact that I was recording about 20 feet away from my partner."

Ulanzi SC-01 Heavy-Duty Suction Cup Mount

Ever wonder how beauty influencers get those perfectly framed GRWM mirror shots without an awkward tripod knocking all their skincare products into the sink? This is the secret. The Ulanzi SC-01 is a heavy-duty suction-cup mount that lets you stick your phone or camera directly onto your bathroom mirror or a window.

It uses a manual air pump to create a vacuum seal, so it won't suddenly unstick and ruin your reel. Plus, the magic arm has a double-headed, 360-degree rotating ball head so you can angle it however you want. It's so strong that one Amazon reviewer said they used it during a one-hour helicopter flight (mounted on the windshield), and it held up through turbulence.

Amaran Go Mini Phone Light

Good lighting is the easiest way to take a photo from so-so to oh! The Amaran Go Mini Phone Light is a super affordable way to get that studio look.

This ultra-compact, pocket-sized light snaps directly onto the back of a MagSafe-compatible iPhone (series 12 through 16) and features a clever dual-light design that lets you flip between a forward-facing main light for your videos and a built-in adjustable mirror light for quick makeup touch-ups with the click of a button.

Bose QuietComfort Headphones

If you're going to be editing videos or writing captions for hours, you need a comfortable pair of noise-cancelling headphones. We featured the Bose QuietComfort Headphones during last year's October Prime Day, but they're back on sale and still totally worth the hype.

Mashable Shopping Reporter Samantha Mangino reviewed them and called them her all-time favorite pair. According to her testing, you can wear them all day with glasses and earrings without experiencing ear fatigue. They have a 24-hour battery life, impressive noise cancellation for coffee-shop editing, and a physical power switch so you don't accidentally leave them on and drain the battery.

Even more creator-approved deals to shop this Prime Day

• Logitech Creators Blue Yeti USB Microphone — $85.49 $139.99 (save $54.50)

• Samsung Galaxy Tab A11+ (6GB RAM, 128GB SSD) — $160.55 $299.99 (save $139.44)

Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition review: The e-reader I use every day

The Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition 12th generation is Amazon's highest-end Kindle. But with a $200 price tag, you're better off with the standard Paperwhite.

Kindle users might be the most passionate sect of BookTok, coming up with hacks to maximize the device's potential, through page turners or Stuff Your Kindle Day events. And we get it, they're the best e-readers out there. In 2024, Amazon released a new lineup of Kindles that improved upon the previous generation, which we already loved.

I've tested the Kindle Paperwhite, and spoiler alert, I do think it's a better value than the Signature Edition. However, the SE isn't without its merits. Let's get into the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition 12th generation, and whether you should buy it over the basic Kindle or Kindle Paperwhite.

Plus, I've now been using the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition for 18 months — do I still like it?

It has all the perks of the Paperwhite and more

The Kindle Paperwhite and Paperwhite Signature Edition are essentially the same device; the Signature Edition just has the addition of a few special features. You can read all the in-depth details about why we like the Paperwhite in my review, but here's the TL;DR.

The 2024 Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition is lightning fast. In comparison to the 2021 edition, the difference is noticeable, with no hesitation when flipping through pages. However, the biggest improvement comes when switching between books in your library, as it zips through tasks.

With a 7-inch screen, the SE got a slight size increase, while the resolution of 300 ppi and maximum brightness of 94 nits remain the same between generations. That being said, the display on this generation looks higher contrast, making it sharper and easier to read. Plus, it remains waterproof, perfect for taking along to the bathtub, beach, or pool.

Not to mention it comes with 32GB of storage. If you're thinking in terms of phones or tablets, that amount of storage might seem small, but keep in mind that 32GB has the potential to hold up to 32,000 e-books.

You get all of these great features in both the Kindle Paperwhite and Paperwhite Signature Edition, so what makes the SE unique?

The same great battery life as the Kindle Paperwhite

Kindles are unbeatable on one front: battery life. The Kindle Paperwhite and Signature Edition boast the same battery life of up to 12 weeks. The Signature Edition can go months without charging, but it doesn't have a longer life than the standard Paperwhite. The only battery life bonus you get with the Signature Edition is its wireless charging capabilities.

The Paperwhite vs. Signature Edition: What does $40 extra get you?

The Paperwhite Signature Edition has several added features that come with its $40 increase in price. For $199.99, it comes with an ad-free lock screen, 32GB of storage, auto-adjusting brightness, and wireless charging. Plus, it comes in metallic versions of the Kindle Paperwhite's black, jade, and raspberry.

No lockscreen ads

Among the added features, the lock screen is the biggest draw. On a standard Kindle, ads pop up on the lock screen, forcing Amazon's recommendations on you. Not necessarily a dealbreaker, but still plenty annoying. So the Signature Edition does away with the ads, freeing you from the chains of capitalism (sort of). However, this does come with one catch. The ad-free lock screen tends to unlock easily when tossing it into a bag since there's no 'swipe to unlock' mechanism that the ad-enabled devices have. So if you're going to get the Signature Edition, make sure to get a case with a cover.

Auto-adjusting brightness

In terms of the other features, I didn't think they were anything to write home about. The auto-adjusting brightness didn't work consistently, even when I went from reading next to a lamp to turning off the lights; the auto-adjustment didn't kick in, and I always had to manually turn the brightness down.

Wireless charging

The wireless charging, while nice, didn't feel like the most necessary addition since you need to charge the device every three months. Plus, with most devices using USB-C these days, I'm never in short supply of chargers.

32GB of storage — is it necessary?

Now let's address the 32GB in the room. For an e-reader, that is an exorbitant amount of storage. It's double the amount of the standard Kindle Paperwhite, and again, 32,000 books' worth of storage. That is a lot of books. Is that much necessary? In my professional opinion, no, especially when you can remove downloaded books from your device and redownload from the Kindle cloud at any time. So if you think you need all that storage, you probably don't, and it's not worth splurging an extra $40 on it.

Differences between the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition 12th generation and 11th generation

If you already have the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition 11th generation, you may be wondering if it's worth it to upgrade to the next generation. Short answer: Absolutely not. Unless your 11th-gen Signature Edition has kicked the bucket, the differences between the 11th generation and 12th generation are negligible. Both devices have all the premium features of 32GB of storage, wireless charging, auto-adjusting brightness, and no lockscreen ads.

The main differences between the two devices are faster processing and a slightly larger screen. Having used both devices, the processing speeds are extremely similar, but the 12th generation's extra speed is admittedly hard to notice. The larger screen size is nice, but it's only a difference of .2-inches.

All that to say, don't run to upgrade unless your old device is on its last leg.

Do I still use the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition?

I first published this review in December 2024, so more than 18 months later, what do I think of the Paperwhite Signature Edition? Well, I use it every day. After a year and a half of use, the SE still has impressive performance, quickly maneuvering through pages and loading new downloads quickly. It has slowed down some; I noticed it particularly when turning on the device, but it's pretty negligible. What hasn't faltered? The battery life, which lasts for months at a time.

I'm lucky enough to have the whole Kindle lineup at my disposal, so why is the Signature Edition the one I keep reaching for? Lack of ads on the lockscreen is a big one, although the standard Paperwhite can be ad-free for just $20 more. What keeps me coming back to the Signature Edition is its 32GB of storage.

Many of the books I read are downloaded directly to my Kindle, and currently, I have 175 books on my SE. Those books take up only 674MB of storage, and I still have 24.8GB (or 24,800MB) available. Doing just a little math, that means I have room for over 6,000 more downloads. Do I think I'll ever actually have over 6,000 books on my Kindle? Probably not, but it's nice to not have to think twice about adding a new book to my device.

Is the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition worth it?

For the average user, I don't think the Signature Edition is a worthy upgrade. The Kindle Paperwhite is far better bang for your buck, packed with everything you need for the ultimate reading experience. It might be worth the splurge if you do have storage concerns — maybe you've maxed out on 16GB on previous Kindle models. Otherwise, 16GB will be fine. And if you're really put off by lock screen ads, then the Signature Edition is going to be your preferred device.

Plus, it has some real longevity. I've been using it for 18 months, and it's barely slowed down. So even if it's an investment, you won't be buying a new one for years.

Mashable's reviews of the current Kindle lineup

• Amazon Kindle 2024: Amazon's basic Kindle is the best e-reader on a budget

The best Prime Day deals under $100 include Apple, Fitbit, and Ninja devices

You don't have to spend a fortune to score during Prime Day. Here are the best Prime Day deals under $100.

Amazon’s annual Prime Day is officially here (running through June 26), and you definitely don't have to blow your entire paycheck to score something good. If you're working with a budget, we're seeing loads of quality products drop to their lowest prices ever — landing well below the $100 mark.

Items like these Sony WH-CH720N headphones, for example, are a steal for under $100 right now, along with a bunch of other tech, kitchen appliances, and home goods we've vetted. Keep scrolling to skip the sponsored junk and shop the best Prime Day deals under $100 on Amazon right now.

Best headphone deal under $100

Why we like it

You don't need to drop $300+ on a luxury pair of cans to get high-end sound. We've hands-on tested the Sony WH-CH720N long-term, and they're easily the best mid-range headphones on the market. They deliver crisp, vibrant audio with an impactful bass that doesn't muddy up your tracks, plus they give you access to premium Sony tech like DSEE upscaling and 360 Reality Audio.

Our reviewer, Alex Bracetti, used them to silence everything from loud pedestrian traffic and heavy construction tools to his own toddler. They also have a 35-hour battery life with ANC turned on — which beats the playtime you get on luxury models like the Apple AirPods Max or Bose QuietComfort Ultras.

Best kitchen deal under $100

Why we like it

This air fryer will quickly become a staple in your kitchen, especially since it's efficient, preheats quickly, and has plenty of room in its 6-quart basket to cook a meal for the entire family. It can get dinner out on the table in record time, save you money, and provide a bit of a healthier way to cook some of your favorite dishes. And with its six unique cooking functions, you can do everything from air fry to roast, with a visible window that lets you check on the food without having to open the basket and let the heat out.

Best home deal under $100

Why we like it

I used to own one of these until it succumbed to a very tragic bout of human error, but before that, it was the most dependable thing in my house. If you have pets (I have two beagles), this thing is a lifesaver. It lifts ground-in pet stains out of carpets and couches almost immediately.

The only real caveat is that it sounds like a small jet engine taking off in your living room. But honestly, for how well the 4-inch Tough Stain Tool removes stains from rugs, couches, and car seats, the noise is totally worth it. It’s lightweight, easy to use, and small enough to shove into a closet when you're done.

Best Amazon kitchen deal overall

Why we like it

We're pro Ninja frozen treat makers here at Mashable, but we're also pro dupes when we can find them. At its record-low price of $129.99, Black+Decker's ice cream maker is a solid Ninja Creami dupe to consider. It operates very similarly: Once liquid base ingredients have been mixed and frozen for 24 hours, the ice cream maker whips them into the perfect fluffy texture — regular ice cream, yogurt ice cream, and sorbet are all options. Follow the recipes in the included book or customize your own unique flavors around dietary restrictions or fun mix-ins.

The best Prime Day deals under $50: Ninja blenders, Sony headphones, Lego sets, and more

The best Amazon Prime Day deals from Sony, Ninja, Lego, Coleman, and more are all under $50.

Amazon Prime Day has officially arrived and runs though June 26 this year. And as always, it's a great time to save on tech, home appliances, and back-to-school gear.

Amazon dropped prices on plenty of great items like noise-cancelling headphones, Apple Watches, and portable power stations early, but things are getting even better now that the sale has commenced. If you're sticking to a budget this summer or you're shopping for an affordable gift, the annual Amazon sale has a great selection of options that cost under $50.

We'll continue to update this list throughout the sale. For now, these are the best Prime Day deals that cost less than $50. Go nuts.

Best Amazon Echo deal

Why we like it

When it comes to sorting out the best Amazon Echo device, the Echo Spot wins as the best model that serves as an alarm clock. While spending about $80 on a smart speaker combo alarm clock might feel steep, the Prime Day price of $44.99 brings it down to a much more comfortable level.

The Echo Spot is easy to set up straight out of the box and it has customizable faces and sounds. Plus, it's the perfect compact size for your nightstand.

Best headphones deal

Why we like it

If the price alone doesn't convince you, consider the awards the JLab JBuds Lux ANC have won at Mashable. They're our top pick for best budget headphones this year, the best noise-cancelling budget pick for flying, and the top budget headphones option for students.

In addition to having decent ANC, they have great battery life, getting up to 70 hours of total playtime or about 40 hours with ANC turned on. We're also pretty smitten with the colorway options.

Best kitchen deal

Why we like it

Ninja makes a variety of exceptional kitchen appliances, but if you're short on counter space, the Ninja Fit compact personal blender might be the best option. Use it to whip up a daily smoothie, a weekend frozen margarita, or a dessert chocolate milkshake. The Ninja blender comes with the 700W motor base as well as two 16-ounce Ninja cups and lids that are perfect for taking your blend on-the-go.

Prime Day outdoor deals are live: Rare Yeti cooler deals just dropped

We've rounded up the best Amazon Prime Day outdoor deals from brands like Yeti, Anker Solix, Solo Stove, LifeStraw, and more.

Welcome to the season of summer fun. The schedule is getting crowded with camping, trips to the lake, barbecues, neighborhood block parties, and the kids heading off to summer camp. If you recently went through your outdoor gear and noticed some items should head to the garbage, it's time for a refresh.

Like every year, Amazon Prime Day is an ideal opportunity to snag fresh outdoor gear. Plus, Prime Day shifting to the end of June this year means you'll have even more time to enjoy the new gear before the weather turns cold.

Amazon has excellent options for outdoorsy folks this Prime Day. Before the sale even started, there were plenty of power stations and portable speakers on sale. And now that we're in the thick of it, even more outdoor deals on things like Yeti coolers (which rarely go on sale), Coleman tents, and LifeStraw water filters (one of our favorite classic Prime Day deals) have entered the mix.

The sale runs through June 26, and we're tracking all the best Prime Day outdoor deals below.

We will be regularly updating this guide with the best outdoor deals, so keep checking back. You can also visit our Prime Day 2026 hub for all the latest updates and price drops or our live blog for the most up-to-date deals, news, and stock alerts.

Best portable power station deal

Why we like it

After testing dozens of portable power stations, the Anker Solix C2000 Gen 2 is the model I take on every camping trip. I like to slightly overestimate my power needs while camping (what if I decide to stay an extra night?), so I prefer the 2,048Wh offered by the C2000 Gen 2.

Anker made this as lightweight as possible, and despite landing in the 2k Wh category, it only weighs about 42 pounds. That'll be a manageable weight for camping trips where the campsite is near the car. It's also perfect for powering up the outdoor projector in the backyard for movie nights this summer. The Prime Day sale price of $699.99 is the lowest price we've seen this year at Amazon. It has since jumped up to $799.99, but we'll be keeping an eye out to see if the lower price returns.

Best outdoor speaker deal

Why we like it

What's an outdoor gathering without a playlist? Suitable for bringing to the beach, the weekend cabin rental, or a poolside party, the JBL Charge 6 is ready to play the tunes. Out of all the waterproof speakers, Mashable's favorite is the JBL Charge 6, thanks to its excellent sound and all-day battery life.

Best Yeti deal

Why we like it

Any outdoorsy person knows that Yeti products come with premium price tags and that those steep costs don't drop often. Yeti coolers, specifically, rarely go on sale, but during Prime Day and other major sale events, the brand discounts select colors of many of its popular options. One of our top picks this Prime Day is the Hopper M30 portable soft cooler, which is down to $227.50 from $350 (in the navy shade only). That's easily its best price ever.

The M30 soft cooler features powerful magnets that create a leak-resistant shield, a high-density dryhide shell that withstands everything from punctures to UV rays, a hitchpoint grid for attaching dry gear cases, bottle openers, multitools, and more, and of course, coldcell insulation. It can hold up to 36 cans or 22 pounds of ice. If you don't need something quite as big, check out the Hopper Flip 12 (also on sale), which can hold a case of beer or 16 pounds of ice.

Best deal under $25

Why we like it

The Soundcore P30i earbuds fall well within a budget price but don't skimp out on features. As a Prime Day treat, Amazon has them on sale for only $23.69 in all colorways, down from the list price of $49.99 at Soundcore.

According to Mashable's list of the best budget earbuds, the Soundcore P30i have the most impressive sound for an option under $50 (now under $25). "The active noise cancellation on them is impressive for their price, able to block out the bustle of busy streets or the noisy gym," wrote Mashable Shopping Reporters Bethany Allard and Samantha Mangino.

The best Prime Day deals on Echo devices — shop smart displays, smart speakers, and bedside clocks

The time to buy Echo devices is Amazon Prime Day — here are all the best ones on sale.

Amazon Prime Day is in full swing, and the Amazon device deals prove it.

Echo devices from bedside clocks to full smart displays are on sale, including drops to record-low prices. One of the most notable is the Echo Show 11, which, at 32% off, sits $20 below the previous record low price. The Amazon Echo Dot Max also dropped to $64.99, which is $10 less than its last lowest price ever.

In other words, if you've been waiting to buy an Echo device, Prime Day is perhaps the absolute time to do it, with some possible Black Friday exceptions. Take advantage of these deals during Amazon's sitewide sale from now until June 26.

Best Echo deal

Why we like it

If you want to incorporate Alexa+, and its abilities to control your smart home and make meal plans and manage your calendar, the Echo Show 11 is designed to do exactly that. CNET, also owned by Ziff Davis, wrote that it's an especially great addition to a kitchen space. At 11 inches, it's big enough to actually be functional to watch or read on, but small enough that it's unobtrusive to the kitchen as a whole. It brings together all the best parts of previous Echo Show devices, and at $149.99, it is at the lowest price we've ever seen.

The best streaming deals during Prime Day: 10+ subscriptions for less than $1

Are there any streaming deals for Prime Day? Yes, the best Prime Day streaming deals include Paramount+, HBO Max, Apple TV, and more.

Last year, Amazon surprised us by dropping a boatload of Prime Day streaming deals for the first time. In 2026, it's basically rinse and repeat. And that's not a bad thing.

Prime Day isn't just for deals on TVs and headphones anymore — it's also a great time to load up your digital libraries with streaming subscriptions, so long as you're a Prime member. (Not yet a member? Sign up here.) One of the biggest perks of having a Prime account is gaining access to Prime Video, Amazon's own streaming service. While Prime Video itself isn't on sale, tons of subscription add-ons are, including premium options like Apple TV, AMC+, and Paramount+.

In the days leading up to the official Prime Day kickoff (which takes place June 23 through 26 this year), HBO Max also dropped a killer deal. It quickly took our top spot for the best Prime Day streaming deal.

I'll be keeping an eye out for you, and updating this list if any new streaming deals roll in. I'm not expecting much to change throughout Prime Day, so be sure to jump on these deals ASAP. This will likely be your only chance to snag a steep discount until the end of the year — so, act fast if you see a deal you like.

Best Prime Day long-term streaming deal

Why we like it

HBO Max always gives us one of the best streaming deals for Black Friday, but this is the first time it's decided to hop aboard the Prime Day express. And it's kicking off its Prime Day deal debut with a bang: new and returning subscribers can get any annual subscription for 40% off. Yes, that means this deal isn't just limited to the ad-supported tier like it is on Black Friday.

Typically, HBO Max annual subscriptions cost $109.99 for the Basic with ads tier, $184.99 for Standard (no ads), and $229.99 for Premium (no ads + 4K). Through July 15, however, you'll only pay $78.99, $132.99, or $164.99, respectively. After your first year, your subscription will revert to full price unless you cancel. Still, that's 12 whole months of streaming for 40% less than usual.

Psst: If you don't want to deal with logging into another streaming service, this deal is also available in the form of a Prime Video add-on.

Best Prime Day streaming add-on deal

Why we like it

Like clockwork, we can always count on Paramount+ to dish out one of the best streaming deals during major shopping events. The streamer has resurrected the exact same streaming deal from last Prime Day for 2026, only this time it's technically a better offer since Paramount+ raised its prices earlier this year. Typically $13.99 per month for a Premium subscription (that's the ad-free tier with Showtime), you'll get two months for just 99 cents a piece. That saves you $26 total.

The Paramount+ library is surprisingly robust. Premium subscribers can enjoy Paramount+ Originals like Landman and RuPaul Drag Race All Stars, Showtime series like Dexter Resurrection and Yellowjackets, CBS shows like Survivor and Big Brother live, UFC fights, and nostalgic shows from Nickelodeon and MTV. That's not even counting the massive movie lineup (including Paramount Pictures movies straight from the theater).

The discount is only valid through the end of Prime Day on June 26, so be sure to sign up before then. You can grab the deal directly through Paramount+ itself or as a subscription add-on via Prime Video or Roku.

Best Prime Day music streaming deal

Why we like it

If you're not committed to a music streamer, now's a good time to check out Amazon Music Unlimited without spending a cent. Through June 29, new subscribers can secure four free months. Typically $11.99 per month for Prime members, that's a total of $47.96 in savings. Amazon Music Unlimited unlocks a massive music catalog that you can listen to on-demand, ad-free, and in the highest quality possible. Beyond music itself, Unlimited subscriptions also include "the most ad-free podcasts" of any of the major music apps, as well as one free audiobook per month via Audible. Even if you do already subscribe to another music streaming service, it's worth it to take a pause from payments for four months and lock in this deal.

Amazon devices are heavily discounted on Prime Day — shop Fire TVs and Kindles on sale

Shop Amazon devices during Prime Day. Fire TVs, Blink security cameras, and more are up to 65% off during the sale's June 23 start.

We're in the midst of Prime Day, Amazon's annual flagship sale, which runs from June 23 to 26, and plenty of Amazon devices are on sale. We always expect some of the best deals during Prime Day to be on Amazon's very own devices, and that's playing out no differently this year. Prices have been slashed on Amazon devices, with discounts of up to 65%.

Some of the biggest savings are on Amazon Fire TVs. Every size and a variety of brands are all on sale, saving you hundreds of dollars on 4K TVs. But there are also some big savings on home security and smart home devices, too.

While the lead-up to this sale already had many of the deals live, Kindles were finally discounted with the sale's official start on June 23. Our favorite deal is on the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition, which dropped to its lowest price ever.

Here are all the Prime Day deals on Amazon devices available now:

Best Prime Day Echo deals

Echo prices dropped in the week leading up to Prime Day. The latest Echo devices, the Echo Dot Max and Echo Studio, both hit new, all-time low prices. But the biggest discount is on the Amazon Echo Spot, the smart alarm clock. This tiny speaker sits compactly on nightstands but provides everything you need to start your morning, including a weather report and tunes to get you out of bed.

During Prime Day, get the Amazon Echo Spot for just $44.99. That saves you $35 off its $79.99 price tag for a 44% discount.

Best Prime Day Amazon Fire TV deals

There's nothing better than a smart TV that provides access to all your favorite streaming services, no extraneous streaming sticks or devices needed. During Prime Day, Fire TV sales are plentiful. The best deal is on the Toshiba 43-inch Class C350 LED 4K Smart TV, which is down to $159.99, saving you $140 off. We're keeping our fingers crossed it drops back down to its pre-Prime Day price of $138.98. Still, this 4K TV is great, coming equipped with Dolby Vision Atmos for clearer sound and picture for the best possible viewing experience.

TV deals move fast during big sales, so if this deal looks good to you, buy it quick before it sells out.

Best Prime Day Kindle deal

It's officially the best time of year to buy a Kindle, and the prices on these e-readers reflect that. The Paperwhite Signature Edition is Mashable's top pick for the best upgraded Kindle, and for good reason. It has 32GB of storage — more than any other Kindle (minus the Scribe) — and auto-adjusting screen brightness, so it's ready for reading in any situation. Even at its full $200 list price, we think it's an e-reader worthy of heavy consideration. At $145, it easily offers the best value for serious readers.

Best Prime Day home security deal

Looking to boost your home's security? Blink's latest outdoor cameras are getting some serious markdowns during Prime Day, with a one-camera system on sale for as little as $34.99. We recommend grabbing a three-camera setup if you want to get the most bang for your buck. Usually, this bundle runs you $219.99, but Prime Day slashes 66% off the price, bringing it down to just $74.99.

Best Prime Day Fire tablet deal

What's most surprising about the deals on Amazon devices is how limited the Fire tablet deals are. Maybe Amazon is just being conservative, or maybe it's signaling that some changes are coming. Either way, the best deal on Fire tablets is on the Amazon Fire HD 8, a small, perfectly portable tablet that's under $100. Get it for just $89.99 during Prime Day, saving you $40.

The best cordless power tool deals for Prime Day: Save on Craftsman, DeWalt, Hoto, and more

Save on cordless power tools at Amazon from Craftsman, DeWalt, Hoto, and more during Prime Day.

Summer is the ideal time to tackle home DIY projects. The paint will dry quicker, there are more hours of daylight, and maybe even some friends around to help out. If you have a list of home and yard projects to take care of this summer, make sure you have the necessary tools. Nothing sidelines a weekend project quite like realizing you need to run to the hardware store.

Lucky for us, Amazon Prime Day has tons of great discounts on cordless power tools. We've picked through the entire sale and rounded up the best deals below. We'll continue to update the list as Prime Day continues this week — it's live through June 26 — so check back daily.

Best DeWalt deal

Perfect for anyone building a new tool collection, the DeWalt 20V MAX Cordless Drill and Impact Driver Combo Kit is on sale for just $169 during Prime Day — a 32% savings. The kit comes with the 20V compact drill/driver, 20V impact driver, two 20V batteries, a battery charger, and a durable carrying case. Both tools have a built-in LED light, so you'll get a better view for optimal accuracy. The comfort grip with ergonomic design is also a major plus.

Best Craftsman deal

Packing in seven tools, the Craftsman V20 Power Tool Combo Kit is an upgraded starter pack. It comes with a drill/driver, oscillating tool, impact driver, grinder, reciprocating saw, circular saw, and even more. You also get two 20V batteries and a battery charger. During Prime Day, it's on sale for $299, down 19% from its normal price of $369.

Best Hoto deal

Hoto makes some excellent cordless tools that are useful to have around any home, even if you're not taking on DIY projects soon. The Hoto SNAPBLOQ S-A01 3.7V Electric Screwdriver is the perfect example, given that it comes with 56 bits to cover every possible scenario. It also has three torque settings and an LED light. Use it to repair your glasses or sunglasses, get access to tiny screws in a watch or your laptop, while still having access to more standard bits. It's marked down to just $75.99 during Prime Day (or 24% off), which is its lowest price ever.

The best noise-cancelling and open earbud deals on Prime Day: Shop AirPods, Bose, and picks under $100

We've rounded up the best earbud deals you can grab from June 23 to 26 during Prime Day, including the AirPods Pro 3 for $179.

Amazon Prime Day is here and so are the earbud deals. This year's Prime Day runs June 23 to 26, but the sale was hot before it even began.

The actual start date felt like a bit of a formality after the AirPods Pro 3 hit record low prices twice this week. They even dropped to $169 at Walmart on June 18, knocking $80 off the normal $249 price.

Other notable buds, like the Sony XM6 earbuds, second-gen Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds, and Nothing earbuds, are all on sale. Below, we've rounded up all the best Prime Day earbud deals you can grab right now.

Looking for over-ear headphones? Check out our guide to the best Prime Day headphones deals. And be sure to follow along with all other categories and deals in Mashable's Prime Day hub.

Best noise-cancelling earbuds deal

Why we like it

The Apple AirPods Pro 3 dropped down to a record low price of $179 ahead of Prime Day, but then the price dropped even lower before the sale's official start. According to the price tracker camelcamelcamel, the Pro 3 buds got down to $169 at Amazon, but at the time of writing, that specific deal is gone. Now that Prime Day has officially started, you can still find them for $179 and in stock at both Amazon and Best Buy. If the price drops back down to $169 again, we'll be sure to sound the alarm.

Best noise-cancelling earbuds deal under $100

Why we like it

The EarFun Air Pro 4 are the best earbuds you've probably never heard of. They're our top pick for noise-cancelling earbuds under $100 on a normal day. Now that they're down to just slightly over $50 for Prime Day, we can't recommend them enough. We struggled to find the flaws of these budget-friendly buds upon testing. They offer excellent battery life and noise cancellation (which has manually adjustable levels), multipoint connectivity, a well-rounded sound profile, and obviously, a price that's hard to beat.

Best open earbuds deal

Why we like it

The Sony LinkBuds Clip give the ultra-popular Bose Ultra Open earbuds a run for their money. In my head-to-head testing of the two pairs of earbuds, I found that while the Bose buds generally lean louder, the Sony earbuds have a more detailed sound profile, making for an overall superior listening experience. They also have a longer battery life, delivering nine hours per charge, where the Bose earbuds deliver seven. With both earbuds on sale, there's only a 99-cent price discrepancy between the two, but if you don't anticipate using these earbuds in many noisy situations, the Sony earbuds are likely the way to go.

The gaming deals to level up this Prime Day: Switch 2 bundles, Asus gaming laptops, Samsung monitors on sale

See the latest gaming deals at Amazon, including a new Switch 2 bundle. Save 30% on Asus gaming laptops and 42% on Samsung monitors for Prime Day 2026.

One of the biggest shopping events of the year is here.

Amazon Prime Day is now in full swing, and we're in for big savings between June 23 and 26. To help Mashable readers find the best Prime Day gaming deals, we sent our most dedicated gamers on a quest to find the top discounts on gaming consoles, headsets, Samsung gaming monitors, and more

It's no secret that the gaming world has seen a huge wave of price increases in 2026. The Nintendo Switch 2 is set for a price hike later this year, and let's not even talk about the price of the Steam Machine. With this in mind, you should take advantage of Prime Day gaming deals while you still can.

Keep checking this page, as we'll be adding more deals throughout Prime Day 2026.

Best gaming monitor deal

Why we like it

A gaming monitor has the power to change the whole gaming experience. Go curved, and you'll never go back to a dull, flat screen. Lucky for us, the 32-inch Samsung Odyssey G5 has a 1000R curve, and it's on sale for a massive 42% off for Prime Day, coming in at just under $190 instead of the list price of $329.99. It's also worth noting that the 27-inch model is on sale for about $200, which makes the lower price on the 32-inch model a fantastic snag.

The Samsung Odyssey G5 comes with game-worthy specs like a 165Hz refresh rate, AMD Radeon FreeSync, and a glare-free display.

• Samsung 49-inch Odyssey G9 (G95C) Curved Gaming Monitor — $664.99 $999.99 (save $335)

Best gaming-worthy TV deal

Why we like it

We often think of gaming as an expensive hobby, but it doesn't have to be if gaming items are multi-functional. For example, the 65-inch TCL ClassQM6K QLED TV can serve as your gaming display as well as your TV. Pair this with the sale price of $527.99, and things are looking a lot more realistic, price-wise.

The TCL has a native refresh rate of up to 144Hz for crisp and quick gaming. The refresh rate is also excellent if you're sitting down to enjoy watching World Cup games this summer. TCL has the list price for the 65-inch ClassQM6K QLED TV set at $799.99, but Amazon's Prime Day sale takes 33% off.

Best gaming headset - SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3X

Why we like it

SteelSeries is one of the best brands in gaming headsets. It comes with audio presets for some of the most popular titles like Call of Duty and Fortnite, so you can dominate games even more. Being able to hear the footsteps of your opponents is crucial to landing victories. The headset is both durable and comfortable, weighing only 260G while its dual-hinge design gives it a sturdy frame.

The battery lasts for up to 40 hours, and just a 15-minute quick charge restores up to 9 hours of playback. This way, you're always ready to jump back into the game. And under $100? Count us in.

Best deal for kids - Nex Playground Console

Why we like it

The Nex Playground is the perfect gaming console for kids as it includes child-friendly games such as Fruit Ninja, Whac-a-Mole, and Party Fowl. With a Play Pass subscription, you'll get access to more than 30 other games too. Luckily, this bundle contains a 12-month free pass. It's incredibly easy to set up, as you just need to connect an HDMI cable to your TV, and its small form factor keeps it out of the way for kids.

Even better, you don't need a controller! It uses its built-in camera and AI motion tracking to let kids take control while playing. Up to four players can participate at a time, so there's always room for a party. The Nex Playground exploded in popularity last year, and now it's hardly on sale anymore, so here's your chance to save.

Best Nintendo Switch deal

Why we like it

This Nintendo Switch 2 bundle may not technically be an actual Prime Day deal, but it's still worth picking up if you're looking to buy the console. Not only do you get the Switch 2 itself as well as a pair of included Joy-Con controllers, but you also get a game of your choice. You can select from the popular titles Donkey Kong Bananza, Mario Kart World, and Pokémon Pokopia, which can save you some additional cash. It's cheaper to buy this bundle than the Switch 2 base console and a game, and we can vouch for all three titles as excellent starter games. And if you're going to buy a Switch 2, now's the time to do so: Nintendo is raising the price from $449.99 to $499.99 on Sept. 1.

More Nintendo Switch deals

The best deals on noise-cancelling headphones for Prime Day — shop Apple, Bose, and Sony

Mashable's audio expert found the best Prime Day deals on noise-cancelling headphones from brands like Sony, Apple, and Nothing.

Amazon Prime Day is upon us once more, running June 23 through June 26, and some of our favorite noise-cancelling audio products are marked down to record-low prices.

There are deals on flagship models from Sony, Bose, and Apple. But it's not just the $400+ flagship headphones getting discounts. The mid-range Nothing Headphone (a) are down to $151.05, while one of our budget-friendly favorites, the JLab JBuds Lux ANC, are just $10 away from a record low price.

Earbuds have an impressive showing too, with the AirPods Pro 3 down in price, plus markdowns on the newer Sony XM6 buds. You can also pick up the CMF by Nothing Buds 2 for just $23.27, making them the cheapest option on our list.

We'll be updating this guide as the sale continues, so keep checking in for updates.

Best ANC headphones deal

Why we like it

The Sony XM6 headphones aren't a must-upgrade if you already own the XM5s — in fact, we find the two quite similar. That said, the XM6 headphones are a much more palatable upgrade at a sub-$400 price range, and bring the added convenience of folding ear cups, which is especially handy if you anticipate using them for travel often (which their excellent ANC does make them a great candidate for). At the time of writing, every color option is discounted, though a few finishes are off by about a dollar, depending on which one you pick.

Best ANC earbuds deal

Why we like it

The AirPods Pro have long been a great choice for any Apple power user, and the third generation of the earbuds is no different. In fact, it fills even more gaps than its predecessors. In addition to its solid sound quality and top notch ANC, these earbuds come in with live translation features, and a built-in heart rate monitor. At their full price, they're already on the cheaper end of premium flagship earbuds, but at $179.99, they're nearly unbeatable value.

Were tracking the best Prime Day headphones deals: Sony XM6 and AirPods Max 2 are our top picks

Find headphones on sale for Amazon Prime Day 2026. See our experts' favorite headphone deals, including Sony XM6, AirPods Max 2, and Anker Soundcore P30i.

Amazon's twelfth annual Prime Day sale is live now through June 26. There are dozens of genuinely good tech deals up for grabs this week (check out our running master list). But the headphones and earbuds deals are looking abnormally great, even for Prime Day.

Some standouts from the second day of the sale include record-low prices on the Apple AirPods Max 2, the Bose QuietComfort headphones, Sony's flagship XM6 earbuds and headphones, its last-gen XM5 headphones, and two of our favorite open earbuds. Soundcore also has a solid selection of Prime Day deals, with the budget-friendly Space One headphones and P30i earbuds both hitting new all-time lows for Prime members.

On this page, you can find all of the best Prime Day deals on headphones and earbuds. (Deals marked with a strikethrough weren't available at the time of writing, but could return later this week.) You can also visit our Prime Day 2026 hub for all the latest updates and price drops.

Best headphones deal

Why we like it

In the face-off between the Sony XM5 vs XM6 headphones, most times I'd recommend the XM5s, especially if you don't care about folding ear cups. And while the XM5s are down to a new all-time low this Prime Day, so are the XM6s. Get the latest iteration of Sony's flagship headphones for just $378 and save $81.99.

Best earbuds deal

Why we like it

The Sony WF-1000XM6 earbuds are some of the best I've tried, but even at their sale price, they're a hefty investment. While the Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds don't quite match up in sound quality, they still have some of the best noise cancellation available, and are the most comfortable earbuds I've ever tried. For $249 (normally $299), or roughly $17 less, they're the deal to beat this Prime Day.

• Sony WF-1000XM6 — $265.99 $329.99 (save $64)

Best open earbuds deal

Why we like it

Bose was the near-undisputed champion of open earbuds with top-notch sound — that is, until the Sony LinkBuds Clip came along. In my head-to-head testing of the earbuds, I found that while the Bose Ultra Open buds can get louder (an important feature in open earbuds), the clarity and detail of the sound in the Sony buds surpassed that of the Bose. Even though their price discrepancy is only $20 this Prime Day, the sub-$200 price point on the Sony earbuds is hard to pass up.

The best Pokémon deals on Prime Day — Pokémon TCG, books, games, and more on sale

As of June 25, here are the best Prime Day Pokémon deals on TCG boxes, Switch games, books, clothing, and collectibles you can still grab before prices change.

Amazon's Prime Day sale is now past the halfway point, but Pokémon fans still have plenty to shop for beyond the usual handful of toys and Switch games. Amazon’s sale runs through June 26, with discounts already landing across Pokémon TCG boxes, booster bundles, books, clothing, and collectibles.

As always with Pokémon deals, the best offers probably won’t sit around for long. Trading card prices can jump quickly once a popular set drops closer to market value, and anything tied to newer releases tends to disappear fast during big shopping events.

To help cut through the noise, Mashable has rounded up the Pokémon deals actually worth checking out right now, whether you’re chasing cards, grabbing a game, or picking up a gift before prices climb again.

Here are the best Prime Day Pokémon deals available now.

Best Pokémon card deal

Why we like it

This booster box set comes with 36 booster packs to open, all collected from the Pokémon TCG: Mega Evolution—Chaos Rising expansion. It has over 120 cards to collect with a wide variety of different Mega Evolution Pokémon. This is a great way to expand your collection and try to chase down some of the more expensive cards from the set all at once, at a significant discount.

Another Pokémon TCG deal

Why we like it

Part of the latest expansion currently available, the Chaos Rising expansion's Booster Bundle is a great way to invest in the Pokémon TCG's new Mega Evolution collection of cards — with only six packs, it won't break the bank as much as the much more expensive 36-pack Booster Display Box. With its $8 price cut for Prime Day, you'll now only be paying $8.60 per Chaos Rising Booster pack instead of $9.99.

Apples foldable iPhone Ultra probably wont be late after all

Apple's upcoming foldable iPhone Ultra is about to go into production, report claims.

Apple's upcoming foldable iPhone "Ultra" is reportedly about to go into production, despite earlier updates that Apple is struggling with some of its components.

According to Korea's The Elec, Apple will begin mass production of the foldable iPhone in "late July."

The company is reported to have finalized the key specifications for the device, which is one of the final steps before the phone can enter production. The phone will likely launch in September as Apple originally intended.

The production issue that Apple had encountered reportedly had to do with the phone's hinge. According to The Elec, the 3D-printed hinge module for the foldable iPhone will be supplied by two companies, Taiwan's Hsinchu Hsing and U.S.'s Amphenol. During the development of the hinge, several issues arose, including larger than expected tolerances, higher defect rates, and noises that started appearing after durability testing.

However, the outlet's source says that "most of these issues have now been resolved."

The news follows a similar recent report from China, which claimed that component deliveries for the foldable iPhone have begun in small batches, and that suppliers were receiving guidance for a planned September launch.

The best tablet deals during Prime Day: Save on iPads and Galaxy Tabs

During Prime Day, we're tracking deals on tablets. Right now, save big on OnePlus, Samsung, and Apple tablets.

While testing tablets, I've learned a few things. Yes, iPads really are that good, but also, Android tablets are vastly underrated. With Prime Day running June 23 to 26, I'm focused on which tablets we're actually seeing on sale. Usually, iPads take big price cuts. Plus, I want to see premium Android tablets like the Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra reach new all-time low prices.

We will be regularly updating this guide with the best tablet deals, so keep checking back. You can also visit our Prime Day 2026 hub for all the latest updates and price drops or our live blog for the most up-to-date deals, news, and stock alerts.

Best Prime Day Android tablet deal

The OnePlus Pad Go 2 surprised me when I tested it. For under $400, it's a speedy device that's as user-friendly as any iPad I've tested. Plus, the user interface is similar to iOS devices for those looking to switch over. I've been tracking the price on it since testing it, and it's rarely on sale, but right now you can grab the OnePlus Pad Go 2 ahead of Prime Day for just $319.99, saving you $80.

Huge deals on 65-inch TVs for Prime Day: Up to $1,000 off 2026 TCL mini QLED TVs and LG OLED TVs

Prime Day is one of the best times of year to buy a new TV, whether that's at Amazon or Best Buy. Save up to 40% on the new TCL Q8ML and LG G6.

You may not have needed a new TV during Black Friday or even during Amazon's Spring Sale. But this summer, it might be a different story. Whether you're moving homes in the popular June through August window or simply noticed that your current TV sucks while watching the World Cup, Prime Day is a really smart time to buy a TV.

If you're not sure what size TV to get, the internet will probably tell you that 65 inches is the most palatable size. That's big enough to be seen from 10 feet away, but not so massive that you'll get a headache in a close-knit living space. A 65-inch TV is also more likely to fit comfortably on the average TV stand than if you bumped up to 75 inches.

Prime Day TV deals are consistently so good that you'll easily be able to snag a 65-inch TV for the typical price of a smaller model. Through the end of Prime Day 2026 on June 26, I'm tracking all of the most worthwhile deals on 65-inch TVs that are live at Amazon, plus (really good) competing deals from Best Buy. Many are 2026 models that just came out in the spring, already on sale at a new record-low price.

Best 65-inch TV Prime Day deal

Why we like it

Just released in April 2026, the TCL Q8ML is the successor to TCL's popular QM8K TV. The single letter change in the title doesn't quite cover the difference in lighting tech here. The SQD Q8ML series features "super quantum dot mini LEDs," which are essentially an extra-bright version of regular quantum dots that are able to reproduce 100 percent of the BT2020 color spectrum. In dark rooms, the 4,000 local dimming zones packed into the Q8ML provide much sharper contrast than a regular mini LED TV.

If you're curious, you can snag the 65-inch TCL Q8ML for $1,499.99 at Amazon — a casual $1,000 off its debut price of $2,499.99.

Best 65-inch Amazon TV deal

Why we like it

Amazon gives its own Fire TVs a good amount of attention during Prime Day, of course. Despite the discounts, Amazon Fire TVs typically still aren't the best bang for your buck compared to 4K TVs from other brands. However, the Prime Day deal on the 65-inch Amazon Ember Artline is actually a really good value for the money.

Only recently released, the Amazon Ember Artline is Amazon's version of a matte art TV. The big deal here is that the Ember Artline comes with a frame color of your choice: Choose from 10 options, including walnut, ash, black oak, fig, graphite, matte white, midnight blue, pale gold, silver, and teak. (Without paying extra, The Frame locks you into black and the Hisense Canvas locks you into teak.)

20+ book deals Im sending to the WhatsApp book club for Prime Day

Shop the best book deals at Amazon during Prime Day, including hardcovers, paperbacks, and Kindle versions up to 50% off.

It's Amazon Prime Day, which officially runs from June 23 through 26, and there are plenty of live deals to shop during the sale.

Besides offering three free months of both Kindle Unlimited and Audible to new subscribers, Amazon also has some pretty great discounts on books themselves. I'm not usually one to recommend purchasing physical books via Amazon (support local book stores!), but it's pretty hard to pass up a 50% price drop on a book you've had on your TBR.

I'm tracking some of the best deals on physical books and e-books at Amazon, but remember to check back for more as the sale continues.

Best Prime Day hardcover book deal

Why we like it

Named one of Goodreads most popular books of 2026 (so far), Freida McFadden's Dear Debbie follows advice columnist Debbie Mullen, who takes a rather extreme approach to fixing her own life as it starts to crumble. Down to just $12.74, this is one of the cheapest hardcover books you can pick up this Prime Day.

Best Prime Day paperback book deal

Why we like it

A classic trope of two abducted girls, only one returns and one doesn't, The Girl Who Was Taken is a psychological thriller by Charlie Donlea where nothing is as it seems. Typically around $20, you can pick up the paperback version for only $7.50 at Amazon during Prime Day. That's just a few cents away from its lowest price ever.

Best Prime Day Kindle book deal

Why we like it

I highly recommend grabbing this twisty psychological thriller from internationally best-selling author Steve Cavanagh while the Kindle version is only $2.99. Kill For Me Kill For You follows two women seeking revenge against the men who killed their daughters. Over drinks one night, they decide to swap murders, but things don't go exactly as planned.

The best Prime Day deals on gaming laptop: Shop Acer, ASUS, and more starting at $1,099.99

We rounded up the best Prime Day gaming laptop deals, fully vetted for current-gen performance, verified discounts, and value.

Amazon’s Prime Day sale is officially into day two, and the retailer’s gaming laptop deals are dropping hard across various brands to save you cash on top-tier models.

Now that the main sale is in full swing, we’re seeing major discounts on machines built for much more than just everyday browsing. These include RTX-powered laptops, high-refresh-rate displays, sizeable SSDs, and models that can handle the latest PC games without needing a full desktop setup.

Gaming laptops can be tricky to shop for during a big sales event, with specs, third-party sellers, and inflated list prices all worth checking carefully so you don't get stuck with an outdated processor. Mashable has gone through the live offers and picked out the best gaming laptop deals worth considering before the sale wraps up.

With that, here are the very best Prime Day deals you can find right now.

Best overall deal

Why we like it

The Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 AI is a strong pick if you want an upper-midrange machine that handles modern titles without settling for baseline graphics. For Prime Day, Amazon has it on sale for $1,599.99, knocking a full $600 off the $2,199.99 list price.

That price drop buys you a 16-inch display driven by an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics card. While many laptops on sale around this price bracket default to lower-tier 5050 or 5060 cards, the 5070 Ti tier offers a step up in performance. This means you can run demanding single-player games like Cyberpunk 2077 or competitive multiplayer shooters at higher graphical settings while safely using features like ray tracing and DLSS upscaling.

Best MSI gaming laptop deal

Why we like it

The Katana 15 HX isn't carrying an official Amazon Prime Day badge, and its 17% discount isn't the deepest cut we've seen this week, but we're highlighting it here based on its performance history.

PCMag (also owned by Ziff Davis) named it the best gaming laptop for most people in its 2026 testing, and this specific configuration brings current-gen hardware down to $1,829.99 from its $2,199.99 list price. While price trackers show that lower-spec SKUs of the Katana have dropped as low as $1,369.99 in the past, this particular build justifies its price tag if you want better components out of the box.

With that $370 savings, you get a 15.6-inch QHD+ display with a 165Hz refresh rate and 100% DCI-P3 color accuracy, a 24-core Intel Core i9-14900HX processor, and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 graphics card with DLSS 4 support.

Mashable writers with super simplified routines and 10-step routines alike have sourced the best Amazon beauty deals live at the halfway point of Prime Day:

Best hair tool deal

Why we like it

Everyone is so obsessed with Dyson's beauty collection, but our lead shopping reporter, Bethany Allard, has confirmed that it's not your only option when it comes to styling your hair at home — especially if you're just looking for something that's simple, efficient, and affordable.

I use the Drybar Blow-Dryer Brush every single day, and it's never let me down. The ionic technology helps smooth out frizz, and the oval-shaped barrel gives you that bouncy salon volume at the roots in one easy step (no multi-styler needed!). It's lightweight, super quick to use, and gets me out the door in minutes.

Best skincare deal

Why we like it

Staying hydrated and moisturized is a blessing, but it can be expensive to get that dewy look every day. I love, love, love Philosophy's Hope in a Jar Glow Water Cream Face Moisturizer, but I almost never buy it unless it's on sale — which is why I highly recommend grabbing it right now while it's 15% off.

The lightweight water cream formula is packed with hyaluronic acid and pineapple extract to deliver serious, long-lasting hydration without leaving your face feeling greasy. I apply this every single day right when I get out of the shower, and it gives me such a gorgeous, natural glow that my mom always compliments my skin when she sees me. (Pro tip: I also really love the Philosophy extractor clay face mask, so you might want to add that to your cart while you're at it.)

The best Pokémon deals to grab over Prime Day — Pokémon TCG, books, games, and more on sale

As of June 25, here are the best Prime Day Pokémon deals on TCG boxes, Switch games, books, clothing, and collectibles you can still grab before prices change.

Amazon's Prime Day sale is now past the halfway point, but Pokémon fans still have plenty to shop for beyond the usual handful of toys and Switch games. Amazon’s sale runs through June 26, with discounts already landing across Pokémon TCG boxes, booster bundles, books, clothing, and collectibles.

As always with Pokémon deals, the best offers probably won’t sit around for long. Trading card prices can jump quickly once a popular set drops closer to market value, and anything tied to newer releases tends to disappear fast during big shopping events.

To help cut through the noise, Mashable has rounded up the Pokémon deals actually worth checking out right now, whether you’re chasing cards, grabbing a game, or picking up a gift before prices climb again.

Here are the best Prime Day Pokémon deals available now.

Best Pokémon card deal

Why we like it

This booster box set comes with 36 booster packs to open, all collected from the Pokémon TCG: Mega Evolution—Chaos Rising expansion. It has over 120 cards to collect with a wide variety of different Mega Evolution Pokémon. This is a great way to expand your collection and try to chase down some of the more expensive cards from the set all at once, at a significant discount.

Another Pokémon TCG deal

Why we like it

Part of the latest expansion currently available, the Chaos Rising expansion's Booster Bundle is a great way to invest in the Pokémon TCG's new Mega Evolution collection of cards — with only six packs, it won't break the bank as much as the much more expensive 36-pack Booster Display Box. With its $8 price cut for Prime Day, you'll now only be paying $8.60 per Chaos Rising Booster pack instead of $9.99.

Pokémon TCG deals

Hurdle hints and answers for June 25, 2026

Hints and answers to today's Hurdle all in one place.

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.

There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it'll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters clearly shown.

An important note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle.

The best Prime Day deals under $100 include Apple, Fitbit, and Ninja devices on a budget

You don't have to spend a fortune to score during Prime Day. Here are the best Prime Day deals under $100.

Amazon’s annual Prime Day is officially here (running through June 26), and you definitely don't have to blow your entire paycheck to score something good. If you're working with a budget, we're seeing loads of quality products drop to their lowest prices ever — landing well below the $100 mark.

Items like these Sony WH-CH720N headphones, for example, are a steal for under $100 right now, along with a bunch of other tech, kitchen appliances, and home goods we've vetted. Keep scrolling to skip the sponsored junk and shop the best Prime Day deals under $100 on Amazon right now.

Best headphone deal under $100

Why we like it

You don't need to drop $300+ on a luxury pair of cans to get high-end sound. We've hands-on tested the Sony WH-CH720N long-term, and they're easily the best mid-range headphones on the market. They deliver crisp, vibrant audio with an impactful bass that doesn't muddy up your tracks, plus they give you access to premium Sony tech like DSEE upscaling and 360 Reality Audio.

Our reviewer, Alex Bracetti, used them to silence everything from loud pedestrian traffic and heavy construction tools to his own toddler. They also have a 35-hour battery life with ANC turned on — which beats the playtime you get on luxury models like the Apple AirPods Max or Bose QuietComfort Ultras.

Best kitchen deal under $100

Why we like it

This air fryer will quickly become a staple in your kitchen, especially since it's efficient, preheats quickly, and has plenty of room in its 6-quart basket to cook a meal for the entire family. It can get dinner out on the table in record time, save you money, and provide a bit of a healthier way to cook some of your favorite dishes. And with its six unique cooking functions, you can do everything from air fry to roast, with a visible window that lets you check on the food without having to open the basket and let the heat out.

Best home deal under $100

Why we like it

I used to own one of these until it succumbed to a very tragic bout of human error, but before that, it was the most dependable thing in my house. If you have pets (I have two beagles), this thing is a lifesaver. It lifts ground-in pet stains out of carpets and couches almost immediately.

The only real caveat is that it sounds like a small jet engine taking off in your living room. But honestly, for how well the 4-inch Tough Stain Tool removes stains from rugs, couches, and car seats, the noise is totally worth it.

Tons of Loop earplugs are on sale for Prime Day

Need some peace and quiet? Here are the best Loop Prime Day deals worth shopping right now.

Whether you're a light sleeper, are sensitive to loud noises, or just literally cannot with the outside world (e.g., roommate's breathing, partner's chewing, stranger's convos, etc.), then you might want to invest in a pair of earplugs.

Loop earplugs are a Mashable fave and have been for years. Several of our staffers and freelancers have bought, used, and loved Loop. Our Senior Shopping Reporter, Haley Henschel, even wore a pair of the Loop Experience 2 earplugs to the Cowboy Carter Tour and said that they worked almost too well.

The only catch is that they're usually a bit of an investment. But thanks to Prime Day, you can get 'em for a fraction of the price. Here are the best Loop deals to grab before the sale ends.

Best Loop deal overall

Why we like it

If you're not quite sure which pair of Loops to get, Mashable Lead Shopping Reporter Bethany Allard says the Switch 2 are your best bet. They feature a tiny physical switch that lets you toggle between three levels of noise reduction (20dB, 23dB, and 26dB), and they come in multiple colors.

"Throughout my testing period, I found myself reaching for these earplugs the most due to their flexibility," she writes. "I could go from being locked in while working to having a conversation without taking them out."

NYT Connections Sports Edition today: Hints and answers for June 25, 2026

Connections: Sports Edition is a New York Times word game about finding common sports threads between words. How to solve the day's puzzle.

Today's Connections: Sports Edition will be easier if you've been to Atlanta.

As we've shared in previous hints stories, this is a version of the popular New York Times word game that seeks to test the knowledge of sports fans.

Like the original Connections, the game is all about finding the "common threads between words." And just like Wordle, Connections resets after midnight, and each new set of words gets trickier and trickier — so we've served up some hints and tips to get you over the hurdle.

If you just want to be told today's puzzle, you can jump to the end of this article for the latest Connections solution. But if you'd rather solve it yourself, keep reading for some clues, tips, and strategies to assist you.

What is Connections: Sports Edition?

The NYT's latest daily word game has launched in association with The Athletic, the New York Times property that provides the publication's sports coverage. The sports Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.

Each puzzle features 16 words, and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake — players get up to four mistakes before the game ends.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.
