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 basically get paid to nerd out over the latest noise-cancelling headphones, smart glasses, 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 begun, I can finally write about price drops.

So, every day this week, I'm sharing all of the best Prime Day tech deals. 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 best deals — the ones I'd recommend to friends and family or shop myself — end up on this page.

Don't forget that the Mashable shopping team doesn't just pick random 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 time.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Looking for Prime Day deals under $25? You can't do much better than this Blink Mini indoor security camera for just $9.99.

Either way, you can grab this Amazon brand's security cameras to protect your home inside and out.

Prime Day deals on smart glasses

So far this year, smart glasses have been one my top testing priorities. I've tried some of the latest smart glasses from Xreal, Meta, TCL RayNeo, Viture Beast, and Even Realities. Some of my favorite augmented reality glasses are at never-before-seen prices. 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. However, you can also score the new Xreal 1S AR Glasses for $399.

My advice? If you want to use AR glasses for entertainment, go with the TCL RayNeo. If you want to be able to work and play, go with Xreal, as they're better for getting work done.

Remember: The Switch 2 is getting a price hike later this year, so don't miss your chance to save.

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.

How to watch Switzerland vs. Canada online for free

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 17:00:00 +0000

TL;DR: Live stream Switzerland vs. Canada in the 2026 FIFA World Cup for free on ITVX. Access this free streaming platform from anywhere in the world with ExpressVPN, an Official Supporter of the FIFA World Cup 2026.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup group stage is coming to an end, and Group B wraps up with Switzerland vs. Canada.

Canada scored big against Qatar, winning 6-0 in their first-ever World Cup victory. A win over the Swiss would see the Canadians finish top of Group B. But Switzerland, who also have an eye on winning the group, will prove much tougher opposition.

If you want to watch Switzerland vs. Canada in the 2026 FIFA World Cup from anywhere in the world, we have all the information you need.

When is Switzerland vs. Canada?

Switzerland vs. Canada in the 2026 FIFA World Cup kicks off at 3 p.m. ET on June 24. This fixture takes place at BC Place Vancouver.

How to watch Switzerland vs. Canada for free

Switzerland vs. Canada in the 2026 FIFA World Cup is available to live stream for free on ITVX.

ITVX is geo-restricted to the UK, but anyone can access this free streaming platform with a VPN. These tools can hide your real IP address (digital location) and connect you to a secure server in the UK, meaning you can unblock ITVX to live stream the 2026 World Cup for free from anywhere in the world.

Live stream Switzerland vs. Canadar for free by following these simple steps:

Subscribe to a streaming-friendly VPN (we recommend ExpressVPN)
Download the app to your device of choice (the best VPNs have apps for Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, Linux, and more)
Open up the app and connect to a server in the UK
Visit ITVX

ExpressVPN (1-Month Plan)

$12.99 only at ExpressVPN

The best VPNs for streaming are not free, but most do offer free-trials or money-back guarantees. By leveraging these offers, you can access free live streams of the 2026 World Cup without actually spending anything. This obviously isn't a long-term solution, but it does give you enough time to stream Switzerland vs. Canada (plus more World Cup fixtures) 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 ITVX?

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

Servers in 105 countries including the UK
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.

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 17:00:00 +0000

TL;DR: Live stream Bosnia and Herzegovina vs. Qatar in the 2026 FIFA World Cup for free on ITVX. Access this free streaming platform from anywhere in the world with ExpressVPN, an Official Supporter of the FIFA World Cup 2026.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup group stage continues with Bosnia and Herzegovina vs. Qatar, the last round of fixtures of Group B.

Bosnia and Herzegovina haven't won a game yet but are still within a far-flung shot of qualifying to the knockouts if they can beat Qatar. It's certainly their easiest game so far. Qatar lost their last game against Canada 6-0 and had two red cards. But will Qatar do the unexpected and pull a win back before exiting the tournament?

If you want to watch Bosnia and Herzegovina vs. Qatar in the 2026 FIFA World Cup from anywhere in the world, we have all the information you need.

When is Bosnia and Herzegovina vs. Qatar?

Bosnia and Herzegovina vs. Qatar in the 2026 FIFA World Cup kicks off at 3 p.m. ET on June 24. This fixture takes place at the Seattle Stadium.

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:

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.

Mark Zuckerberg reportedly had Meta create an app modeled after Kalshi, Polymarket

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 16:40:08 +0000

Prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi have become big business lately. Earlier this year, for example, Polymarket saw users spend $425 million in a single day.

Sites like Polymarket and Kalshi allow people to bet on nearly anything, including sports, entertainment, finance, and politics.

According to a report from the New York Times, Meta founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg wants a piece of the prediction market action. The company behind Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp recently had a team create a new prediction market smartphone app similar to Polymarket and Kalshi.

Internally, Meta's prediction market app is known as "Arena."

Unlike Polymarket and Kalshi, however, Arena isn't set up to accept real-money bets. Instead, Meta's prediction market acts more like a game in that regard, with in-app points awarded and wagered.

Arena is currently being tested internally at Meta. There are no plans to release the app to the public at this time. In fact, the app may never be released. However, according to the New York Times' sources, Meta isn't ruling out adding actual monetary betting to the app if it did indeed go live.

As the report points out, Meta previously experimented with a prediction market app well before Polymarket and Kalshi. Back in 2020, the company released an app called Forecast, which asked users to guess what the world would look like after the COVID-19 pandemic. Meta closed Forecast in 2022.

Meta has attempted to create standalone apps separate from its Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp platforms before, often with little success. For example, the company launched a standalone viral clips app, Lasso, in 2018. The app was positioned to be a competitor to TikTok. Meta shut down Lasso less than two years later.

Prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi have been under intense scrutiny in recent months. Investigations have uncovered that these platforms are rife with issues such as insider trading and often engage in deceptive marketing to attract users.

With that said, the popularity of prediction markets has continued to surge. And Meta has a track record of following the trends – just look at the Metaverse or Meta's attempt to launch a cryptocurrency – so it should be no surprise that the company has developed a prediction market. The real question now is whether or not they launch it.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

LastPass data breach confirmed: Everything we know so far

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 16:10:59 +0000

A security breach at a third-party vendor has exposed customer data belonging to LastPass, the company confirmed this week, in the latest incident to put the beleaguered password manager back in the spotlight.

LastPass confirmed this week that hackers gained access through a company called Klue, a market intelligence tool that LastPass uses internally to track competitors and manage sales relationships. According to LastPass, an unauthorized actor obtained OAuth tokens that Klue held on behalf of its customers and used them to access LastPass customer data within its Salesforce environment.

The exposed information was limited to names, phone numbers, email addresses, physical addresses, and sales-related records. LastPass was emphatic that its core products and customer vaults, meaning passwords, were not affected.

The breach was not limited to LastPass. As BleepingComputer reported, a newly emerged extortion group calling itself Icarus has publicly claimed responsibility for the attack, describing it as a broad operation targeting multiple Klue customers. According to BleepingComputer's reporting, cybersecurity firms Huntress and ReliaQuest found that attackers exploited a compromised legacy credential to obtain OAuth tokens, then used Python scripts to query Salesforce's API and conduct large-scale data theft across numerous organizations. Confirmed victims include Recorded Future, Tanium, Jamf, Sprout Social, and Gong, among others.

Icarus is reportedly pressuring affected companies to make contact via the Session messaging platform or risk having their stolen data published.

LastPass says it has revoked Klue's access, notified law enforcement, and is cooperating with the broader security community through its internal threat intelligence team.

The company urged customers to remain alert to phishing and social engineering attempts that could exploit the exposed contact data. It reminded users that LastPass will never ask for a master password.

Supergirl review: Better than the comic, but not DCs best

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 16:00:00 +0000

At the end of 2025's Superman, she was a high-energy scene-stealer, perfectly paired to her chaotic pup, Krypto. Now Supergirl gives Kara (Milly Alcock) an adventure all her own.

Set far from Metropolis, and based on the comic book miniseries Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, this DC movie launches fans into the cosmos, where the violence and villains are more random. Yet there are evils here that have strong, disturbing parallels to those on Earth. So it's absolutely satisfying to watch a petite but powerful Supergirl dish out attitude with the grudging determination of a lunch lady and kick ass like only a pissed-off superhero can.

Supergirl is better than Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.

Screenwriter Ana Nogueira took the bones of the DC miniseries, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, and dropped its less cinematic elements. The story still follows Kara (Alcock) from her boozy birthday revels in space to a quest for vengeance, sparked by a young girl named Ruthye Marye Knoll (Eve Ridley). Together, they will hunt down the villain Krem of the Yellow Hills (Matthias Schoenaerts), a member of a band of vicious criminals known as the Brigands. However, Nogueira's version dumps much of Ruthye's tedious narration from the comics, allowing Supergirl to be more centered. Plus, she loops in Lobo (Jason Momoa), a bounty-hunting antihero with big personality, a devil-may-care attitude, and a roaring motorcycle.

Also, taking a page from 2025's Superman, Supergirl leans hard on the cosmic cuteness of Krypto, the flying dog. Supergirl begins where Superman left off, with Kara retrieving her canine bestie. Together, they trek to a red-sun system, where her superpowers vanish, so she can get properly intoxicated. Far from the noble boy scout her cousin Kal-El is, Kara is drowning her agony over the loss of their family and home planet in any booze she can get her hands on. (A flashback reveals why the loss was harder on her. And heads up, comics fans, it's different from the book.)

It's in a dangerous bar that she meets Ruthye, who's seen her entire family slain by Krem, and is now offering her father's sword to whoever will help her spill Krem's blood with it. Kara is not interested in a quest. But when a hulking alien steals the blade, she can't help but intervene — drunkenly. This becomes the pattern for Kara. She retreats to distractions with her pup, but can't help but step in for the underdog. However, this mission gets personal when a run-in with Krem results in Krypto being poisoned by the Brigand leader. Not only does this sideline the superdog from most of another DC movie, but it also puts a ticking clock on their quest. If Kara can't find Krem — who carries the antidote — in three days, Krypto will die.

That still doesn't mean she wants to help a child murder a guy, though. Reluctantly, she brings Ruthye along, equipping her with a Rick and Morty-like suit of protection. In their pursuit of Krem, they will save the day for others, including a bus full of travelers, and slew of girls who've been abducted by the Brigand. In another major shift from the comic, the Brigands aren't just a violence-seeking gang. Here, they have their own sex-trafficking operation, abducting girls from various planets to spawn new Brigands. (There's a line about how the Brigand race has no women, so this is how they procreate. Which makes zero sense, even in a world in which Kryptonians can fly under the yellow sun. Anyway, moving on...)

By essentially creating DC's version of Epstein island, this change adds another layer of threat to Supergirl by recognizing the real-world dangers of rape that women and girls face all too often. Referred to by the Brigand as "the brides," these girls are stolen from their family, robbed of their autonomy, and made objects by their powerful male abductors. In this setting, having a surly, short blonde woman be their savior feels thrilling, because aside from her superpowers, Kara is just like them. Yet it's not her strength that drives her to save them.

Another difference from the book is that Nogueira emphasizes the final wishes of Kara's mother in a thought-provoking way. Rather than simply "be good," Alura In-Ze (Emily Beecham) advises her daughter not to be "nice" but to "be kind." This is a message that suggests not creating a superficial facade of civility, but doing the work, offering the sacrifice demanded to truly express kindness to others. It's a powerful message and an infuriatingly timeless one. It's just a shame these messages don't permeate the execution of the film.

Despite Milly Alcock's terrific performance, Supergirl's girl power message feels sanitized by its director.

Within the script, Nogueira creates opportunities to display Kara's complexity. In some scenes, she seems a carefree party girl. But when she's alone with her dog, her grief throbs. In front of Ruthye, she tries to keep it together. Having her upbringing disrupted by the end of her world means that Kara's not great at playing with others. She's pugnacious but smart, reckless but kind. And Alcock masterfully swerves from one side of Supergirl to another, making her a crackling and compelling character onscreen — certainly more dynamic than the Woman of Tomorrow comic's depiction of an ever-stoic hero who abruptly curses.

Nogueria finds other ways to work more women into the plot line as well. For instance, the abducted girls create a focal point for the spreading malignance of the Brigand — and in the third act, some of these captives will get a chance at revenge. But even little details, like swapping a dragon out for a trio of female raiders as adversaries, bring greater representation to this DC offering. (Women can be villains too!)

However, Supergirl lacks the presentation of lived experience seen in Patty Jenkins' Wonder Woman, where Diana got to be delighted by babies and ice cream while also being a powerful warrior, or Cathy Yan's Birds of Prey, where an action sequence has a brief beat so one heroine can hand off a hair tie to another mid-fight. This movie yearns for such moments of specificity.

Director Craig Gillespie has made a dazzling array of movies, from the sexy, better-than-the-original remake of Fright Night to the Tonya Harding biopic/comedy I, Tonya to the fabulously fashion-forward Cruella and the GameStop short squeeze dramedy Dumb Money. He's shown a skill for crafting character. And it's not like Supergirl is flat. If anything, it feels like Gillespie got out of the way of Alcock, Schoenaerts, and Momoa. Alcock is not falling into the social pressure to be a (super)girl who smiles to appease. She even gets a beat where she plays up a valley girl voice to undermine a man she assumes will be placated by that. Schoenaerts oozes with sleaze, whether he's murdering innocents or snarling at kidnapped girls, and Momoa has the chaotic himbo energy that's made him such fun on red carpets and in Fast X. (He's so much better suited to Lobo than the nautical saga of Aquaman.)

However, there's just something lacking, keeping it from knitting it together beautifully. The action scenes are full of stunts. But none of the blows hit as hard as when Krypto gets shot in act one. The costuming by Michael Mooney and Anna B. Sheppard is surprising, as Supergirl wears a T-shirt, jeans, and trench coat for most of the film as opposed to her signature supersuit and cape. That it's a Blondie tee feels a bit reductive, as if Blondie is a band for girls. This shorthand is echoed in a soundtrack that includes songs from female-fronted bands like Wet Leg and Rilo Kiley, standards sung by Ella Fitzgerald and Winnie Ama, and a cover of Jimmy Eat World's "The Middle," performed by Kelty Greye and KidMotel.

The issue is not these acts or these songs, but that this approach to capturing girlhood or sisterhood feels like a "nice" superficial exterior to Nogueira's more challenging screenplay. For instance, "The Middle" cover falls into the cliché that's become rampant in movie trailers, where the memorable song is slowed down and song softly, as if that inherently gives it a new or deeper meaning. Its use makes Gillespie's choices feel strategically pandering to a female audience instead of organic to Kara's story.

Watching Supergirl, I wasn't able to fully enjoy the ride, because these details kept snagging my attention. I was jerked out of the movie by cosmetic choices that felt not exactly out of place, but certainly not smoothly integrated. Still, there's a lot of great stuff in this DC spinoff.

Alcock is captivating as the conflicted Supergirl, who's not sure if she's a hero or of her place in the universe. Schoenaerts is spectacularly creepy as Krem of the Yellow Hills, while Momoa is snarling fun as Lobo. The story runs more smoothly, dramatically, and satisfyingly than the comic. It shows more often than it tells and creates a greater complexity to its title character. And Nogueira does a sublime job of balancing Kara's processing of grief with comedic moments that allow for breath and laughs. So, this movie won't be bogged down by mourning like a series of the MCU ones post-snap.

But, in the end, while I enjoyed myself, I was never really blown away by this superhero movie. I left pleased, but not in awe, not craving a chance to see it again immediately. Still, if Warner Bros. greenlit a sequel, I'd be game to give Kara and her crew another go.

Supergirl opens in theaters on June 26.

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.

Best noise-cancelling earbuds deal

Apple AirPods Pro 3

$179 at Amazon
$249 Save $70

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.

EarFun Air Pro 4

$50.51 at Amazon
$79.99 Save $29.48

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

Sony LinkBuds Clip

$178 at Amazon
$229.99 Save $51.99

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.

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.

Climate.gov staff relaunch site after Trump killed it

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 15:31:26 +0000

It's been exactly a year since the Trump administration axed the "climate.gov" domain, the former federal hub for climate change information which now redirects Americans to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) climate page.

But former members of the Climate.gov team and NOAA scientists — many of whom were fired by federal leaders in the wake of President Donald Trump's “Restoring Gold Standard Science” executive order — have brought it back to life.

Announced today, Climate.us is an entirely independent, volunteer-run, nonprofit website dedicated to reestablishing up-to-date and trusted climate science to the public. It houses 15 years of climate news, blogs, reports, classroom materials, and other data, including the Fifth National Climate Assessment — materials all formerly accessible on Climate.gov.

The initiative is run by more than 80 volunteer scientists and was partially funded by a grassroots donation campaign that raised $250,000 from 2,500 donors.

"Trusted climate information should not disappear when politics change," said Climate.gov's former program manager Rebecca Lindsey. Lindsey is now the managing director of Climate.us. Last year, Lindsey told NPR that the current presidential administration was shuttering the website to curb discussion of climate change as part of its denialist agenda.

The Trump administration's attack on environmental regulation hasn't slowed. Last week, the Justice Department issued a letter pressuring a Mississippi court to drop a case against xAI that alleges the company's data centers are violating the Clean Air Act and polluting Black neighborhoods. The notice argued the case (and others like it) constitutes a national security threat because it could impede the Department of War’s AI-powered operations.

Best Prime Day laptop deal

Microsoft Surface Laptop 7, 15-inch (Snapdragon X Elite, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD) ✅

$1,229.99 at Amazon
$2,099.99 Save $870.00

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."

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.

HBO Max (Prime Video add-on)

40% off annual subscriptions

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

Paramount+ streaming deals:

Standalone deal

Paramount+ Premium

$0.99/month for 2 months (save $13/month)

prime video add-on

Paramount+ (Prime Video add-on)

$0.99/month for 2 months (save $13/month)

Roku add-on

Paramount+ Premium (Roku add-on)

$0.99/month for 2 months (save $13/month)

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

Amazon Music Unlimited

free for 4 months (save $11.99/month)

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.

GTA VI price revealed: What you get for the $99 ultimate edition

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 15:05:01 +0000

If you were looking to lock down a Grand Theft Auto VI pre-order this week, Rockstar Games just released some very important information about that.

Specifically, Rockstar finally gave us a price for the game. There is a standard edition for $79.99, making GTA VI the first game since Mario Kart World to start at that price. That's not terribly surprising, nor is the fact that Rockstar is also charging $99.99 for an Ultimate Edition of the game.

What exactly does that price get you? According to Rockstar, it's an "exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action around every corner." The official website for the game has some more specific information on that front. The Ultimate Edition of GTA VI includes:

Several exclusive vehicles
Exclusive weapons
A bevy of shops for fashion, vehicle mods, and tattoos that only exist in the Ultimate Edition

Locking outfits and even vehicles behind an Ultimate Edition purchase is pretty normal stuff for a game like this, but putting several shops in the game that can only be accessed by players who bought the more expensive version is...innovative, though maybe not in the way people want GTA VI to be.

It should also be noted that Rockstar emphasized in its news drop on Wednesday that GTA VI is, for now, a single-player experience. Barring the unexpected, there will not be an online portion of the game available at launch. That was also true of GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2. Both of those games got multiplayer modes later, with V's being a cornerstone of Rockstar's financial success for the last decade.

I test e-readers, and Ive found the best-ever Kindle deals to shop on Prime Day

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 15:03:42 +0000

The best Prime Day Kindle deals:

Best Kindle Deal

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition

$144.99 (Save $55)

Best Colorsoft Deal

Amazon Kindle Colorsoft

$159.99 (Save $90)

Best Scribe Deal

Amazon Kindle Scribe (32GB)

$379.99 (Save $120)

Best Kids Kindle Deal

$179.99 (Save $90)

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

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition

$144.99 at Amazon
$199.99 Save $55

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 everyday, 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.

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?

We tracked the prices on the Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite over the past four sales to predict this years prices. Credit: Mashable

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.

When does Prime Day end? Heres how long the sale lasts in 2026.

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 14:57:49 +0000

Prime Day 2026 has started out with a bang, offering the deep discounts we've come to expect over the years.

But it won't last forever! And people seem to be aware of this fact, as we've seen a spike in people asking exactly when Amazon Prime Day will end this year. No one wants to deal with FOMO when it comes to saving hundreds of dollars on the best Prime Day deals.

So, mark your calendar: Prime Day 2026 ends on Friday, June 26.

How long is Prime Day 2026? When exactly does it end?

Amazon Prime Day 2026 started at 3:01 a.m. ET on Tuesday, June 23. The Amazon sale will come to an end at exactly 2:59 p.m. ET on Friday, June 26, 2026 (or 11:59 p.m. PT). At that point, you can expect most deals on major brands like Apple, Lego, and Amazon's own devices will have ended. As of this writing, we're on day two of the four-day mega sale.

Some price drops do tend to linger once the sale is technically over, so it's worth checking to see if the products you've had your eye on are still available on sale. It's a bit of a gamble at that point, though, so we recommend grabbing deals sooner rather than later.

Best things to buy on Prime Day

Like Black Friday, Prime Day only comes around once a year — though there are other sales to be had year-round from Amazon. So it's definitely a bummer to think you may have missed one of the most lucrative events of the year when it comes to saving money.

The good news is that you still have plenty of time to find a bargain. Below, find a selection of some of the best Amazon Prime Day deals Mashable has curated for our readers. And be sure to follow along in our Prime Day hub for the latest and greatest price drops during (and after) the event.

Amazon Prime Day is here once again, 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 one this month and is set for a price increase to $499.99 on September 1 rather than a cut. 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.

Nintendo Switch 2: Choose Your Game Bundle

$499 at Amazon

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 backwards compatibility with most Nintendo Switch titles, it's well worth picking up, especially given the price hike coming in September.

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.

Why we like it

This excellent 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.

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.

Hisense 75-inch U7 Mini LED 4K TV

$999.99 at Amazon
$1,999.99 Save $1,000

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).

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 Amazon TV deal

Amazon 65-inch Ember Artline 4K QLED Fire TV

$799.99 at Amazon
$1,099.99 Save $300

with code SAVEFTV

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 Oura Ring 4 is at an all-time low price for Prime Day — save over $200

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 14:27:23 +0000

SAVE OVER $200: As of June 24, the Mashable-tested Oura Ring 4 has dropped to a new low price of $214 at Amazon, with prices varying based on the size. That's a 38% discount from its usual $349 price.

Oura Ring 4

$214 at Amazon
$349 Save $135

We're officially into day two of Amazon's four-day-long Prime Day sale, and there's still plenty of exciting offers catching our attention. One of our favorite fitness trackers, the Oura Ring 4, has hit a new all-time low price at Amazon.

As of June 24, this popular smart ring is available for as little as $214 on Prime Day 2026. Normally it's listed with a full price of $349, so this deal offers significant savings.

Multiple Mashable reporters and editors have tested this model of the Oura Ring, and across the board, they've had very positive experiences. One of our reporters even wore this smart ring while training for and then running the New York City marathon. Our testers praise its abilities as both a fitness and sleep tracker, and there's a reason it's beloved by pro and amateur athletes alike.

If you want a tracker without a screen, the Oura Ring 4 is an easy choice. Powered by Smart Sensing technology, this stylish smart ring tracks a variety of health metrics right from your finger, including sleep, stress, activity, heart health, and even metrics specific to women's health. It also boasts a solid battery life that can last you up to eight days.

It's among our favorite fitness trackers and our favorite overall smart ring, though it's since been eclipsed by the new Oura Ring 5. After testing the ring, Mashable's Kimberly Gedeon wrote, "the Oura Ring 4 is a wellness powerhouse with a sleek design and cutting-edge AI that takes personalized health tracking to the next level."

This Prime Day deal won't last for long. Act fast to save on the Oura Ring 4 while it's still on sale at Amazon.

Pro tip: If you're not sure of your size, order the Oura Ring Sizing Kit. The kit is available for Prime members for just $8.49 with overnight delivery in many locations.

Slate reveals pricing for its affordable electric pickup

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 14:22:56 +0000

Remember Slate Auto, the minimalistic, made-in-America electric truck that went viral in 2025? Originally, the car was supposed to start at $20,000 after federal incentives.

Now, official price has been revealed and it's not exactly that, but it isn't too bad either.

The official starting price for Slate Auto is $24,950, though that doesn't include a destination charge, taxes, and other potential fees. Those federal credits that Slate hoped would push the price below $20,000 no longer exist thanks to Donald Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill", so hoping the price would be so low was unrealistic, anyways.

For the price, you get the Blank Slate edition, which comes with a nice surprise: a slightly larger-than-announced 63kWh battery with 205 miles of EPA range. Other highlights include a single, rear-mounted 135kW motor with 181 hp, a 20-80 percent charge in 30 minutes on a DC fast charger, a 1,550lb max payload,and a towing capacity at around 2,000lb. The 0-60mph time is a flat eight seconds, and top speed is 90mph.

In terms of safety and comfort, you get traction control, electronic stability control, automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, a backup camera, and remote keyless entry, among other amenities (see full specs on Slate's website).

The Slate Auto starts pretty basic, but you can add a bunch of goodies to it to make it unique. Credit: Slate

The car remains highly modular. You can choose between 100 color wraps with most costing an additional $499, and turn the Blank Slate variant into the Slate SUV variant which has a full roof (Fastback and an Open Air variants are also available). The pricing for those upgrades, however, hasn't been revealed yet.

While the price was expected, the big news here is the battery and the 205 miles of range, a pretty big increase from the originally announced 150 miles. Also, the car has an NCAS charging port, making it compatible with Tesla Supercharger network. The charging speed at 120kW is not the best out there but it's still plenty fast, especially on a battery of this size.

Slate said it received 180,000 reservations for the car so far, and deliveries start in the fourth quarter of the year.

The best Prime Day AirPods deals — AirPods Max 2 have never been cheaper

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 14:08:47 +0000

The best Prime Day deals on AirPods:

Best AirPods deal

Apple AirPods 4

$99 (save $30)

Best AirPods Pro Deal

Apple AirPods Pro 3

$179 (save $70)

Best AirPods Max deal (and a new record-low price)

Apple AirPods Max 2

$399 (save $150)

Need a new pair of AirPods? You can always find Apple's earbuds and headphones on sale for cheaper than usual during Amazon's Prime Day event — 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 involves 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 starting to dwindle as we approach the midway point of Prime Day, but Walmart still has a few colorways in stock at the same price; it's running a sale of its own 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.

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.

Apple AirPods Pro 3

$179 at Amazon
$249 Save $70

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.

Apple AirPods Max 2

$399 at Amazon
$549 Save $150

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. Amazon had them in stock at that price in midnight at the time of writing. They're price-matched at Walmart in blue, purple, and starlight.

$2,099.99 at Amazon
$2,590 Save $490.01

Prime Day is officially here, and if you've been waiting for the right moment to upgrade your gaming laptop, this might be it. Amazon has cut the ASUS ROG Strix G16 (2025) to $2,099.99, knocking nearly $500 off the regular price and bringing the high-performance gaming laptop down to its lowest price this year.

This is a high-end gaming laptop built for people who want serious speed without waiting around for things to load. It runs on Intel’s Core Ultra 9 processor paired with NVIDIA’s RTX 5070 Ti graphics, which basically means it can handle demanding games, creative work, and heavy multitasking without slowing down. You also get 32GB of memory and a 1TB solid-state drive, so apps open quickly, and there’s plenty of space for a full game library.

On the experience side, the 16-inch display is designed for fast, smooth gameplay, which helps keep motion clear in fast-moving games. It also has an advanced cooling system designed to maintain steady performance during long gaming sessions instead of throttling under pressure.

The RGB lighting is mostly for looks and customization, but you can switch it off or tone it down if you want a more simple, work-friendly setup.

Grab the ASUS ROG Strix G16 (2025) on Amazon before your laptop starts charging emotional damage fees.

Amazon Prime Day has kicked off earlier than ever this year. Amazon must know we're all looking for a good deal in an economy with ever-rising prices. If you're on team iPhone, those price increases aren't expected to chill out anytime soon. Tim Cook just announced iPhone price hikes are "unavoidable," citing a chip problem that doesn't seem to have a solution.

Our recommendation is to shop for deals as soon as possible if you need an iPhone upgrade. Amazon doesn't currently have any new iPhone deals, but we're seeing some great options elsewhere, including Best Buy and T-Mobile.

Here's where to snag the best iPhone deals before the price increase. If you're shopping for other Apple devices like AirPods or a MacBook, check out the best Apple deals this Prime Day.

It doesn't get better than free. With no trade-in required, T-Mobile has an excellent deal if you're eyeing the new iPhone 17 Pro. It's free! Of course, there's a slight catch, but it's not terrible. All you need to do is sign on to a T-Mobile Experience More or Experience Beyond plan for 24 months. Over these consecutive months, T-Mobile applies a promo credit to bring the price of the phone to zero. Plus, the Cosmic Orange colorway makes a statement.

Why we like it

If you’re okay skipping the brand-new box experience, this is one of the easiest ways to save on a higher-storage iPhone 17 Pro. The 512GB Renewed Premium iPhone 17 Pro is down to $999.99 on Amazon, cutting $249 off the usual price and bringing a top-tier storage option below the $1,000 mark.

Because it’s listed as Renewed Premium, it also comes with stricter quality checks than standard refurbished models, so it’s closer to a “like-new” experience while still costing significantly less.

Prime Day is officially here (yes, Amazon bumped the official sale up to June this year), and it's my pleasure, as well as journalistic duty, to give you the deets on where to find the best sex toy deals.

As I've noted in years past, buying sex toys on Amazon is a gamble. If you don't know what to look for, you could end up with something that does more harm than good (think porous jelly materials or chemical-laden vibrators). On top of that, Amazon isn't allowed to promote sex toys on Prime Day the way it does for TVs and air fryers, which means you have to dig to find the discounts.

Luckily, you have me to do the research for you. To be transparent, while the official sale is live, the best sex toy deals right now aren't actually on Amazon — they're hiding at competing sales from trusted retailers and brands like Lovehoney, LELO, Bellesa Boutique, and Hello Nancy.

Happy shopping!

Best Amazon Prime Day sex toy deal so far

Tracy's Dog OG Lick

$29.99 at Amazon
$39.99 Save $10.00

Why we like it

This year, the pickings on Amazon are slim, but Tracy's Dog is almost always marked down. It's one of my favorite sex toy brands for people who crave intense clitoral stimulation but aren't willing to pay more than $50. This is one of the only times I feel confident saying you'll get more bang for your buck.

Right now, you can get Tracy's Dog OG Lick (also known as the Juicy Clitoral Licking Vibrator) for $29.99 at Amazon. It doesn't have a "Prime Day deal" badge or even a "discount" listed, but $29.99 is a good deal. For context, it normally retails for $45.99 on the official Tracy's Dog website, so you're saving 35% by grabbing it on Amazon instead.

The OG Lick includes a remote and has seven licking modes and 10 vibration patterns. It's also waterproof and super easy to use hands-free (I actually love using mine while I'm giving my partner head; it's fun for everyone involved). Note: This is a "licking" vibrator; if you want suction, I recommend buying the OG Sucking Vibrator (which isn't available on Amazon for some reason).

How to sign up for Double Date Island, Tinders new TikTok dating show

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 13:26:53 +0000

I used to joke that auditioning for Love Island is a better alternative to dating, and now Tinder is taking it seriously. The app just announced that it's partnering with TikTok to launch a full-on reality dating show this summer called Double Date Island.

The concept is a little different from most dating shows. Instead of sending single people out to navigate an island or competition alone, Tinder is asking contestants to bring a best friend along for the ride. It's all part of Tinder's attempt to be relationship-focused while promoting its Double Date Mode. They're casting single duos from various countries (the U.S., UK, Brazil, Australia, France, Spain, Italy, and Germany), according to the press release, and flying them to Portugal for a summer of on-camera courting.

The show will follow real Tinder users as they go on double dates and participate in challenges and other activities, the app told Mashable. It's (unsurprisingly) inspired by the Double Date feature, and will be unscripted.

I'm not sure if Tinder is taking a page out of InStyle's book — The InTern mockumentary series went viral soon after its first episode, and now it's so popular that celebrities like Drew Barrymore and Sarah Sherman have appeared in it — but a dating show built just for TikTok sounds like something I'd binge while huddled under my covers.

If you want to try out for it, you have to move fast. According to a LinkedIn post shared by Tinder's Global Communications and Social Media Manager, Francisco Gonçalves, the casting window opened on June 22 and closes at midnight local time on June 28, this Sunday.

View this post on Instagram

If you're 18 or older, all you have to do is open up Tinder. A special casting card will randomly pop up right in your usual profile stack over the next few days, and if you want to apply, you literally just Swipe Right on it.

Applications will then be reviewed by the production team, Tinder told Mashable. Selected applicants may be invited to participate in further casting stages, such as interviews, additional social or video submissions, social media reviews, background checks, welfare assessments, and other standard production checks.

The show will culminate in an international finale featuring contributors from multiple countries, according to Tinder. Double Date Island will premiere exclusively on TikTok (not Tinder or another streamer) this summer — apparently, if you're 18 and older.

It might be a promo for the app, but hey, traveling to Portugal with your best friend "for the plot" sounds way better than normal swiping.

Star Fox for Switch 2s multiplayer is Mario Kart for dogfighting

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 13:00:00 +0000

In online spaces where people talk about video games, the necessity (or lack thereof) of remakes is pretty well-worn discourse. Any given remake needs to have some reason to exist beyond just being new, so the argument goes. If we are to accept that framing with regards to Nintendo's new Star Fox reboot for Switch 2, I'd say the multiplayer mode is a solid enough reason to exist.

Between playing the new online Battle Mode at a preview event a few weeks ago and then getting some more hands-on time with it during the review process, I've come away thinking that it's much more than just a tacked-on bonus for this Star Fox 64 remake. While Battle Mode is ultimately too limited in scope to become anyone's new multiplayer obsession, matches are big and chaotic enough (thanks to some added Mario Kart elements) to make it a worthwhile diversion once you're done racking up high scores and collecting medals in the single-player campaign.

'Star Fox' battle mode is a frenzied take on dogfighting

Star Fox for Switch 2 is far from the first game in the series to experiment with competitive multiplayer. Its chief inspiration, Star Fox 64, had a very basic split-screen dogfighting mode that is a source of nostalgia for some, but, frankly, it was never the appeal of that game for me. Some later entries, like Assault for GameCube and the 3DS version of 64, expanded on the number of modes and vehicles, but the Switch 2 reboot is the first time since Command for the Nintendo DS that the series has allowed online play.

Given its history, Star Fox for Switch 2 is easily the most the franchise has ever delivered on the potential of online dogfighting with strangers or the homies. Battles take place between two teams of four, with one team stepping into the boots of team Star Fox, and the other inhabiting the role of the rival crew Star Wolf. These battles take place in extremely large arenas full of obstacles to maneuver around, enemy NPC ships that you can shoot down for small point bonuses, and wormholes that you can use to quickly teleport around.

It can be a lot to take in at first, and you might find yourself getting shot down frequently if you get a little too adventurous before learning how the game works. The skies of the Lylat System aren't especially forgiving.

Given that the single-player modes in Star Fox are entirely beholden to a game from 1997, Battle Mode is the main avenue for the developers at Velan Studios to flex their creative muscles. That's done primarily via random weapon pick-ups a la Mario Kart; you don't know what you're getting until you've collected it, and it's gone once you use it. These can range from small drones that accompany your craft and augment your weapon fire, a quick teleport you can activate at will, homing cluster missiles, or my personal favorite, a giant f***-you laser beam that just wipes out anything it touches.

At its best, Battle Mode feels like Mario Kart in the air. A rough stretch can quickly turn around if you happen to collect the right weapon, and that can snowball into a come-from-behind victory if enough things go right. All of that combines with truly excellent flight mechanics to make something that's tremendously easy to pick up and play for a few minutes, provided you've at least played the tutorial for this game.

But there just isn't enough of it

Oh yeah, you can use characters' faces in GameChat, too. Credit: Nintendo

Star Fox for Switch 2 fills a nice little niche for multiplayer dogfighting that's more approachable and family-friendly than something like Ace Combat or any of the myriad online military sims you can play on PC. Sadly, in accordance with the game's relatively low $50 price tag, there just isn't a ton of it to chew on.

Specifically, there are only three modes:

Capture a zone of the map before the enemy does
Avoid falling meteorites and collect pick-ups from their impact craters to score points
Steal cargo from space pirates and carry it to your enemy base

That'd be a decent enough selection of modes if not for the fact that each one is tied to a certain map, meaning there are a total of three maps in Battle Mode. Nintendo and Velan have also not indicated any plans for DLC, so there's a good possibility that this is all we'll get. While all three maps are fun enough to play on their own, it's just too meager an offering to be something that anyone but a handful of die-hards will want to play for longer than a couple of weeks.

In a vacuum, that's not a bad thing. I'm always in favor of games being intentional with scope and not demanding that players give over their entire lives to them. I don't need Star Fox to be the next Fortnite. But this is the first Star Fox game in a decade, and the first good one in much longer than that, so it's kind of a bummer that Battle Mode is as good as it is while also being extremely limited.

But hey, at least you can also use a webcam to plaster an AR Falco model that roughly follows your facial movements in GameChat lobbies. That's funny, if nothing else.

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.

Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 AI (Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD)

$1,599.99 at Amazon
$2,199.99 Save $600.00

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

MSI Katana 15 HX (Intel Core i9-14900HX, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD)

$1,829.99 at Amazon
$2,199.99 Save $370.00

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.

Apple 2026 MacBook Pro M5

$2,399.99 at Amazon
$2,599 Save $199.01

With Prime Day officially underway, Apple’s 2026 MacBook Pro with the M5 Pro chip has dropped to an all-time low price. It’s down to $2,399.99 on Amazon, saving you $199.

This MacBook Pro is powered by Apple’s M5 Pro chip, which is built to handle heavy workloads like large creative projects, development work, and AI-assisted tools without slowing down when things stack up.

A key shift is that more AI-related tasks can now be handled directly on the device. Apple’s system is designed to run these workloads locally where possible, with some heavier tasks still supported through external processing. It’s also paired with faster storage and memory, which helps reduce delays when opening large files or moving between apps and projects.

The display is one of the stronger parts of the experience. The 14-inch Liquid Retina XDR screen is tuned for high brightness and strong contrast, which helps text stay sharp and visuals look defined across different lighting conditions. Despite the performance jump, it still maintains the usual MacBook Pro balance of long battery life and an easy-to-carry design for day-to-day use.

Star Fox for Nintendo Switch 2 is a magnificent Hollywood take on a classic

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 12:00:01 +0000

Nintendo's new Star Fox reboot for Switch 2 has all the trademarks of something that should be totally creatively bankrupt.

It's a gussied-up remake of Star Fox 64, a game that Nintendo has already remade once before for the 3DS. On top of that, its existence feels like a big attempt at corporate synergy with the distressingly awful Super Mario Galaxy Movie, in which Fox McCloud made his surprise cinematic debut. Instead of reviving the long-dormant Star Fox series with something new, Nintendo has gone and just given us the same game for the third time.

And the wildest part is that it totally kicks ass. Nintendo and new development partner (and Troy, New York's own) Velan Studios have done the impossible and made a big, Hollywood-style remake of a classic arcade-style rail shooter that really, truly works once you sit down and play it. Star Fox for Switch 2 marries timeless levels and mechanics with gorgeous visuals, a breathtaking soundtrack, and just enough new flavor to make me excited about the future of Star Fox for the first time since the Bush administration.

Star Fox proves that 'cinematic' doesn't have to be a dirty word in games

That's a cool dude right there. Credit: Nintendo

If you haven't been following along closely, I should probably clarify a few things about Star Fox for Switch 2.

First, yes, this is a one-to-one recreation of Star Fox 64 in terms of level design and mechanics. Enemy placement, boss strategies, the branching path system, and the way scoring works are all retained here, exactly as they were in 1997. It's still a rail shooter with some open-zone segments, and you can still finish it in roughly half an hour. I have played through the original game dozens of times in my life, so I can speak pretty authoritatively on this subject.

What Star Fox lacks in innovation, it makes up for in pure, timeless arcade-style gameplay. Controlling the Arwing spacecraft has, in my mind, never felt better than it does here. It took all of 30 seconds for me to feel totally comfortable with everything I was doing, and a new, extended tutorial should be pretty good at easing newcomers into the fun, too. Using a charged shot to eliminate a group of enemy ships and then quickly barrel rolling out of the way of an incoming obstacle was thrilling 29 years ago, and it's still thrilling now.

I am largely uninterested in conversations about whether a remake is better or worse than the original. In my mind, remakes are either additive or can be safely ignored, so long as the original is readily, legally available on modern hardware, as Star Fox 64 is on Switch.

This is the first time Aquas has been a fun level to play. Credit: Nintendo

Having said that, there are actually a couple of aspects of this new Star Fox that I feel elevate the experience beyond what the N64 was capable of. The new visuals, for example, add personality to some levels that badly needed it. Corneria, the game's opening level, regardless of which branch you choose to pursue, is downright apocalyptic here, befitting of a planet undergoing a violent invasion from an evil empire. I'm also a fan of the new take on Katina, which turns that level into a wetland marsh environment rather than the nondescript brown smudge that defined it on N64.

I'm also particularly fond of how reactive each environment is to player actions. Shooting basically any surface in the game produces a satisfying graphical effect, such as space dust on meteorites or sparks from metal surfaces. In one section, you can shoot pine trees on the ground to set them on fire. It all looks and feels right in that respect, and frankly, I think the new character designs are kinda cool. I like how much more animal-like they are.

Arguably, the best aspect of this remake, and the one thing that I would say is a straight-up upgrade over the original, is the soundtrack. Star Fox 64's score was, and remains, extremely well composed, but the N64's sound hardware just wasn't particularly good at producing artificial orchestral sounds. Nintendo has gone and re-recorded the entire thing with a real orchestra for this remake, and I would say every single song is better here than it was before.

There are also new cutscenes sprinkled in between every story mission. These are typically pretty quick mission briefings that serve to add a little bit of flavor to the Star Fox universe, and they're mostly successful at that. I enjoy seeing the crew hang out with each other between battles, and I particularly like how often Fox makes it clear that his main motivation is getting paid because he's a mercenary. Making the world of Star Fox feel a little more grimy is cool.

As a fun bonus, you get different cutscenes based on which branching paths you choose in the campaign, so there's another little reason to play it over and over again.

These visual and audio changes work in concert to make the new Star Fox feel "cinematic," a term that has evolved into a pejorative for glossy AAA productions. In this context, though, Star Fox earns the compliment. A rail shooter ought to feel cinematic, given the genre's inherent reliance on heavy scripting while still preserving interactivity. Star Fox 64 also felt cinematic in its day, but I do believe the new version does that particular thing better than the original.

New modes are fun, but some changes fall a little flat

Of course, Nintendo and Velan also made a bunch of changes, as you'd expect from a full-on remake. Most of them are fine, but some of them are not.

I'll start with the bad. The new voice acting is generally done fairly well, in line with how modern video games and cartoons sound. That is to say, the tone on each line read is usually a bit more muted and less theatrical than the original. It can often be jarring if the lines from 1997 are imprinted on your brain like they are on mine, but I have to imagine anyone starting their Star Fox journey with this version will not notice anything wrong.

Still, it was hard for me not to notice how many lines that were previously screamed dramatically are now spoken more casually. I prefer the original reads, but that's to be expected of someone who has been hearing them for three decades. I also want to bemoan the lack of a weird robot voice saying "GOOD LUCK" when you start each level. There was no need to take that out.

The Landmaster is still rad. Credit: Nintendo

Other than that, though, most of the additions are worthwhile. Challenge Mode adds a bunch of achievement-like objectives to each level, giving you even more reason to replay them after you've earned all the medals in the story mode. Battle Mode is a new, expanded multiplayer experience that offers online 4v4 dogfights across three maps, with a different team objective on each map.

I'm pretty into what I've played of Battle Mode, but I can easily see it wearing a little thin after a week or two, given the lack of maps and (thus far) lack of indication that there will be any more added to the game. Regardless, the dream of online Star Fox dogfights has finally been realized in a console game, and that counts for something.

Star Fox for Switch 2 might not be the franchise revival many of us had in mind when rumors of its existence started trickling out months ago. But on its merits, this is a mostly excellent take on a tremendous N64 classic, and one that I think would be a fantastic starting point for anyone who has ever been Star Fox-curious. Given the way Nintendo has treated remakes made by external studios in the recent past, I also fully expect this to be an on-ramp to a new, original game in the near future.

And for the first time in a very long time, I'm actually excited by the prospect of a new Star Fox game.

Boys on the internet are telling me nicotine is a productivity hack

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 12:00:00 +0000

A new wave of wellness influencers, biohackers, and MAHA-aligned creators are promoting nicotine pouches, patches, gums, and lozenges as cognitive enhancers.

The claim, from influencers like Dave Asprey, goes like this: Nicotine can help you focus, make you sharper, more alert, more productive, and more locked in. And, unfortunately, this is the exact kind of thing the internet is designed to make irresistible, since it’s rooted in a shred of truth and then blown out of context. Like, remember mouth taping and color analysis?

Doctors told The New York Times that many claims around nicotine are exaggerated or misrepresent the research. It’s both a stimulant and a relaxant, and really can make people feel more alert. Some studies have shown nicotine may have potential benefits in very specific medical contexts, but with the tobacco industry funding many studies, things can be a little murky here.

And notably, over time, people can build a dependence on nicotine. In any given year about half of all smokers try to quit, but only six percent actually accomplish that. Eventually, the thing that initially makes you feel "locked in" can become quite literal.

In this episode of Mashable's Trending Now series, Christianna Silva and Teodosia Dobriyanova unpack this eyebrow-raising trend.

Prime Day deals are already rolling in, and if you’ve been putting off replacing an aging laptop, Acer just dropped a pretty tempting option into the mix.

Right now, the Acer Aspire 14 AI is down to $479.99 on Amazon, saving you $103 on Prime Day. That's an 18% discount and an easy way to get a new everyday laptop without crossing into four-figure territory.

The Aspire 14 is for people who want a dependable everyday laptop without spending premium laptop money. It has a 14-inch display with a little more vertical screen space than the usual setup, which makes a difference when you're bouncing between documents, browser tabs, and spreadsheets.

The lightweight aluminum build helps if you're carrying it between work, school, or coffee shops, instead of keeping it desk-bound. You’re getting 16GB of memory and a 512GB SSD, which is enough for smooth multitasking and a healthy amount of storage for files, photos, and apps.

Acer also says the battery can last up to 22 hours under certain conditions, though real-world use will likely vary depending on what you're doing. AcerSense puts AI tools in one quick shortcut so you can tweak settings, clean up video calls, and adjust performance without digging through menus.

Grab the Acer Aspire 14 AI on Amazon before your tabs start staging a revolt.

It's the time for gamers around the world to rejoice. Yes, Prime Day is here once more, kicking off a little earlier than usual in 2026 (it's normally a July event) and running until June 26. There are stacks of deals on otherwise expensive gaming hardware, including Samsung monitors.

If you're looking for a new monitor we would always recommend looking at Samsung models. The brand is one of the best in the business when it comes to screen technology, something that applies to Samsung TVs as much as gaming monitors.

We've picked three of the best Prime Day deals on Samsung monitors, but it's worth noting that prices may drop further and new deals may be added as the week rolls on. We'll be sure to update this page so make sure you check back in.

The Samsung 32-inch Odyssey G55C sits at the budget end of the Samsung monitor range, and is even cheaper than usual thanks to Prime Day. This one's also at an all-time low price, with a discount of $140. But don't go thinking it skimps on features. Its curved monitor creates a fully immersive gaming experience, which compensates for some of the spec shortcomings. At $189.99 for Prime Day, it's a steal from Samsung.

If you want to level up with something a little flashier, the Samsung 32-inch Odyssey OLED G8 is an upgrade. It's bigger, bolder, and boasts 4K resolution — everything you need for eye-popping visuals and butter-smooth gameplay. It also has an AI-powered processor that upscales lower-res games to 4K quality. Those are just some of the reasons this monitor has a significant bump in price, usually listed at $1,249.99. But Prime Day has delivered its biggest ever discount — now available at $657.77 — for an overall saving of over $590.

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 June 26.

As Mashable's resident expert on all things laptops, I want to note 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 all of them aren't cheaper elsewhere. But don't feel like you need to be loyal to it 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

Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M5, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD)

$949 at Amazon
$1,099 Save $150

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.

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.

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.

Amazon Prime Day is live now through June 26, and this year's sale is an especially important one for Apple users: Apple products are about to get price hikes because of the global RAM shortage. With that in mind, the Mashable Shopping team is monitoring the best Prime Day Apple deals extra-closely to flag any worthwhile discounts on Apple Watches, AirPods, iPads, and MacBooks.

So far, there are several notable Apple deals. The top offers from the first 12 hours of Prime Day include some record-low prices on the AirPods Max 2, the Apple Watch Series 11, and the M4 iPad Air. (Pro tip: Other past-gen models that are still in stock are also getting deep discounts.) But deals are moving fast, we already saw the M3 Macbook Air sell out.

Most other Apple products are still anywhere from $9 to $100 away from their all-time lows. We're still holding out hope for further price drops on AirPods and the latest M5 MacBook laptops. So, if you're unbothered by the possibility of these products selling out, it's worth waiting a few more days to see if they get even cheaper. Amazon has been known to improve its Apple deals midway through Prime Day.

Over the next few days, we'll continue to update this page with the best Prime Day Apple deals multiple times a day. For what it's worth, 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 on all things Apple. If they manage to beat one of Amazon's deals, we'll note that and link to the competition.

Note: Products marked with a 🔥 are at their lowest-ever price.

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 in all five colors — that's 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.

iPhone 18 news, leaks, and rumors: Release date, iPhone 18 Pro details, more.

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 11:02:50 +0000

Apple's flagship smartphone hasn't taken a year off from its updates since 2007, and barring a massive surprise, 2026 won't be any different.

The Cupertino-based tech giant is widely expected to launch a new lineup of iPhones later this year, including the new iPhone 18, the 18 Pro, and the rumored iPhone Ultra, the company's first-ever foldable.

As we await the iPhone 18 — and its updated operating system, iOS 27 — tidbits of news and rumors continue to trickle out. While we won't see any of the new Apple phones in the wild for months, we can at least bring you the most substantiated and most likely updates in one place.

Want to learn more about getting the best out of your tech? Sign up for Mashable's Top Stories and Deals newsletters today.

iPhone 18 release date and pricing

If you're in the market for a new iPhone, you should circle September in your calendar. That has been the month for Apple's big showcase event for a very long time, and there's no reason to believe Apple will change that in 2026. Expect to see new Apple CEO John Ternus take the stage to introduce it; his term of office officially begins Sept. 1.

What he'll be introducing, alas, may put more of a dent in your wallet. Thanks to the ongoing RAM shortage caused by the AI industry (also known as RAMageddon), tons of smartphones, laptops, and gaming consoles are seeing huge price hikes. Experts who've spoken to Mashable say that trend isn't going to stop anytime soon.

As the world's number one smartphone maker, Apple has some advantages over its rivals, but a price increase is definitely coming. We had hoped otherwise — Apple raised prices on its new MacBooks earlier this year, while also introducing a low-cost $599 laptop that put big pressure on its Windows rivals.

But then outgoing Apple CEO Tim Cook took the unusual step of preparing us for a pricier iPhone. "Price increases are unavoidable," Cook told the Wall Street Journal in an interview. The Journal quoted an analysis showing that the memory chip components in the iPhone 18 Pro will cost Apple $150 more than those in the iPhone 17 Pro.

So should you expect the phones to cost just $150 more than their predecessors (see the iPhone 17 prices here)? You wish. There's the pesky fact that Apple is a for-profit company, and the iPhone is the #1 smartphone in the world for a reason, even though it's already pricier than Samsung's.

How much of an increase will Apple fans bear? We may be about to find out, but the Journal estimated $1,299 for the iPhone 18 Pro ($200 more than last year).

iPhone 18 models

Barring a huge turn under Ternus, Apple will release a base iPhone 18, an iPhone 18 Pro, and an iPhone 18 Pro Max in late September or early October. One thing that might be a surprise (depending on how much tech news you follow) is that Apple may launch or announce a foldable iPhone alongside the normal iPhone 18 models.

That phone is rumored to be called the iPhone Fold, or iPhone Fold Ultra. It's not strictly a member of the iPhone 18 family, at least by name, so head to our hub for all things iPhone Fold/Ultra to read more about it.

iPhone 18 and iPhone 18 Pro design

Again, Apple has not released any official teasers or other imagery for the iPhone 18 lineup yet, so anything reported to date could be wrong. Still, from the sum total of all reports, it sounds like Apple isn't really reinventing the wheel, design-wise. But Ternus, a hardware guy, is reportedly bringing the company's industrial design group into the center of the Apple fold.

Looking further into the future, the iPhone 20 is said to bring big changes, including a curved waterfall display.

Per our friends at CNET (Mashable and CNET are both owned by Ziff Davis), the display sizes will be roughly the same as last year:

iPhone 18: 6.3 inches
iPhone 18 Pro: 6.3 inches
iPhone 18 Pro Max: 6.9 inches

However, the display quality might be a little different this year. Prominent leaker Instant Digital shared on Chinese social media that Apple's brightness demands are unusually high this year, so it would be reasonable to expect much brighter displays than in previous years.

The base iPhone 18 could also have a smaller camera bump compared to previous models. There are reports of a slightly redesigned Dynamic Island on the screen itself, with the pill-shaped notification hub potentially being made smaller in the iPhone 18 models. One alleged leaked image purports to show an iPhone 18 Pro with a downsized Dynamic Island cutout.

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

Wondering about the iPhone 18 color options? For the iPhone 18 Pro, at least, it seems the color options have already leaked. Previous rumors indicated Apple was experimenting with a "deep red" color for the iPhone 18 Pro, and a new report from MacWorld backs that up. According to their reporting, the color lineup for the iPhone 18 Pro will be silver, gray, light blue, and a color called "dark cherry" — likely the deep red previously reported.

Sadly, we think fans of black iPhones are out of luck again.

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

iPhone 18: rumored hardware features

So we know the software the iPhone 18 will run: iOS 27, introduced at WWDC 2026. Time to start talking about some of the internal hardware changes Apple is reportedly making to the iPhone 18 lineup.

For starters, it sounds like the lineup will have a standardized 12GB RAM count across the board. In previous years, the Pro models had 12GB of RAM, while the base model had only 8GB. According to Korean outlet The Bell, Apple will be upgrading the base model so that it matches the Pro models in that regard. It's also widely expected that Apple will adopt new A20 and A20 Pro chips for the base and Pro models, respectively.

It's also expected that the new iPhones will have a new C2 modem for improved cellular connectivity, and they may also have 5G satellite support. Also reported: a new N2 chip for better WiFi performance.

Latest iPhone 18 Pro rumors

For the iPhone 18 Pro, the current expectation is that Apple will improve the battery size in the premium iPhone 18 models this year. Leaker Digital Chat Station on Weibo reported that the batteries could exceed 5,000mAh, which would be an improvement over the iPhone 17 Pro.

In addition, the smaller camera cutout reportedly applies only to the base model. It's expected that Apple will retain the bigger plateau seen on the iPhone 17 Pro last year for the iPhone 18 Pro.

Instant Digital posted in a separate Weibo leak that the back glass of the iPhone 18 Pro has been altered, resulting in a new unified look, as opposed to the two-tone look of the iPhone 17 Pro. Whether that change will affect durability (or if it's just an aesthetic difference) remains to be seen.

iPhone 18 camera rumors

Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, a source of many spot-on iPhone reports, says the iPhone 18 Pro, in particular, will have "some of the biggest camera hardware upgrades in the lineup's history."

Why? First, the telephoto camera has a larger aperture. But more important is the variable aperture.

First reported by Digital Chat Station on Weibo, variable aperture is a huge deal. It would let the iPhone 18 Pro camera capture different amounts of light for different situations — potentially leading to a huge leap in photo quality, if you know what you're doing.

For instance, the bokeh effect famously associated with portrait mode on iPhones would be possible in-camera rather than through software processing, resulting in more natural and generally better-looking shots.

What about AI Siri?

Of course, one of the first things many users will want to know about the iPhone 18 when they get their hands on one: what is the new, revamped, AI-upgraded Siri experience like?

We've been waiting for the answer for some time. Apple first promised users a newer, smarter, Apple Intelligence-powered Siri two years ago, and the company has since faced lawsuits after it failed to deliver. (The company settled a class action suit related to these claims for $250 million.)

Well, post-WWDC, we know a lot more about Apple Intelligence in general. We know Siri will understand what's on your screen. We know Siri will be smarter in general, powered by Gemini. And as Apple daddy Craig Federighi has been at pains to point out, AI Siri will not try to suck you into conversations and be your friend.

"Siri really wants to say, 'I can help you get things done. I can help you learn about the world," Federighi said. "But if you try to engage Siri as a romantic partner, Siri's not up for that. Siri's 100 percent not into that."

There you have it: If you want to fall in love with an Apple product, fall in love with the all-new iPhone 18, not its chatbot.

Amazon Prime Day is officially here, 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.

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.

What's even better is it's actually not an exclusive Prime Day deal, so if you're not a member, you can still take advantage of it. Plus, both colors have dropped to this price as well, so you can choose between the starlight or midnight models.

The Apple Watch SE 3 is an excellent choice for those in the Apple ecosystem who don't want to go all-out with extra features that come with higher-end smartwatches from the brand, like the Apple Watch Ultra 2. There's a reason it's our favorite smartwatch for most people, as Mashable's Timothy Beck Werth says it offers "98 percent of what you need from an Apple Watch or fitness tracker, and at a much better price."

As for what kind of tracking you'll get from it, the SE 3 boasts activity tracking for keeping an eye on your steps throughout the day or workouts, sleep tracking (including a daily sleep score and sleep apnea notifications), heart rate tracking, and more. It even comes with safety features like fall detection and crash detection, alongside a battery life that can last you up to 18 hours.

If you've had your eye on this smartwatch, don't miss out on this great deal on the Apple Watch SE 3 (GPS, 40mm) at Amazon.

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, take up less space on a tablet but still bring Apple's signature speed.

Entering day 2 of Prime Day, we're checking in on the iPad deals. The base Apple iPad is still sitting at $299, $25 away from its previous low of $274, but that's not our favorite deal. Another iPad just dropped to a new all-time low, and we're all in.

Here are the best deals to shop this Prime Day.

Best Prime Day iPad deal

Apple iPad Air, 11-inch (M4, 128GB, WiFi)

$519.99 at Amazon
$599 Save $79.01

Why we like it

Our very favorite iPad, the iPad Air, is the best tablet money can buy, and it's an even better value on sale. The Air, which prior to Prime Day was sitting around $559, is now down to $519.99. That's the tablet's new lowest price ever, saving you $79.01.

It's 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.

Ive covered Amazon Prime Day for 7 years. Here are the MacBook deals worth buying right now.

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 10:32:01 +0000

The best Prime Day MacBook deals at a glance:

Best MacBook Air deal

Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M5, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD)

$949 (save $150)

Best MacBook Pro deal

Apple MacBook Pro, 14-inch (M5, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD)

$1,549 (save $150)

Best MacBook Neo deal (for now)

Apple MacBook Neo (A18 Pro, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD)

$589.99 (save $9.01)

Prime Day 2026 is here — one of the best times to get a deal on a MacBook. I've covered Amazon's flagship summer sale for seven years straight now, and I always see Apple laptops get hefty discounts as part of the festivities. This year is par for the course, with savings of up to $250 across the MacBook Air and Pro lineups.

Amazon's Prime Day MacBook deals are especially welcome right now because Apple is on the verge of sweeping price hikes. (Blame the global RAM shortage.) Going forward, I think it'll be rarer to find MacBooks at prices like we're seeing this week.

That said, most configurations are still a ways away from their lowest prices on record. For instance, the M5 MacBook Airs are $150 off right now, but they were $200 off last month around Memorial Day. Amazon has sweetened its MacBook deals midway through previous sales, so consider waiting to make your purchase until later this week in case prices dip further. (Already, one kitted-out MacBook Pro has gotten $50 cheaper since Prime Day 2026 started.)

I'd also check out competing retailers' anti-Prime Day sales — namely, Best Buy's Tech Fest. It features lots of deals on older refurbished MacBooks that you won't find elsewhere.

Read on for my one-stop guide to all of the top Prime Day MacBook deals, and check back often. I'll continue to update my list based on Amazon's latest prices and deals availability. I'm marking any record-lows I encounter with a 🔥.

Best Prime Day MacBook Air deal

Credit: Apple

Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M5, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD)

$949 at Amazon
$1,099 Save $150

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 on Amazon this Prime Day, which is 14% off its regular $1,099 sticker price.

You'll find the same deal at Best Buy this week, too. Both retailers' discounts apply to all four colors: starlight, silver, midnight, and sky blue.

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 (typically $1,699) — a 9% savings. Best Buy is also price-matching Amazon here.

What about the MacBook Neo?

The Apple MacBook Neo has yet to see a sizable discount on Amazon. Credit: Joe Maldonado / Mashable composite

The MacBook Neo is Apple's colorful new budget laptop. It starts at $599 with 256GB of storage. For $699, you can double its storage capacity and add Touch ID.

While Amazon hasn't been totally resistant to putting the Neo on sale — it's been $9 off there for several weeks now — it doesn't get the same big price cuts as Apple's other laptops. This is probably because it's already a bargain at full price. For that reason, I wouldn't count on it getting a big discount this Prime Day (but I'm happy to be proven wrong).

As things stand, the best MacBook Neo deal right now is Apple's education pricing for college students, their parents, and teachers. Eligible buyers pay just $499 for the base model and $599 for the Touch ID model (a $100 savings either way). If you don't qualify for that offer, Amazon's $9 discount is waiting.

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 best Pokémon deals to grab over Prime Day — Chaos Rising down to all-time low prices

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 10:27:47 +0000

The best Prime Day Pokémon deals at a glance:

Best Pokémon card deal

Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Chaos Rising Booster Box

$229.95 (save $50.05)

Best clothing deal

Pokémon Tracksuit Set

$23.83 (save $27.16)

Best video game deal

Pokémon Legends: Z-A (Nintendo Switch 2)

$44.99 (save $25)

We're officially into day two of Amazon's Prime Day sale, which runs through June 26. While there are plenty of discounts across tech, home goods, and gaming accessories, collectors are mostly just here for the Pokémon cards, games, toys, and merch.

Now that the four-day shopping event is live, Amazon is pushing out a much larger wave of deals than we saw during the early access window. You do have to be fast, though. Pokémon discounts sell out quicker than almost anything else on Prime Day, and trading card releases tend to vanish the second they drop below market price.

Whether you're hunting booster packs from the newest trading card game sets, picking up a Nintendo Switch title, or adding a few gifts to your basket, Mashable has sifted through Amazon to find the Pokémon offers worth buying before they sell out or climb again.

Here are the best Prime Day deals available right now.

Best Pokémon card deal

Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Chaos Rising Elite Trainer Box

$92.55 at Amazon
$118.99 Save $26.44

Why we like it

Far below its initial $118.99 list price, Pokémon TCG’s Chaos Rising Elite Trainer Box gets you nine Chaos Rising booster packs, a full-art foil Fennekin promo card, card sleeves, Energy cards, dice, a coin, a collector’s box, and a Pokémon TCG Live code card. Among those nine, you still have a chance at pulling one of its high-value chase cards (available to buy separately at TCGplayer) — including SIR Mega Greninja ex, Mega Hyper Rare Mega Greninja ex, Cinccino ex, SIR Mega Dragalge ex, and SIR Mega Floette ex.

Amazon isn’t the cheapest place to buy it today, with Walmart at $88.88 and TCGplayer listings from $75, but this is still a great Prime Day pick if you prefer to buy your trading cards from Amazon.

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

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 10:03:15 +0000

The best Prime Day deals on Bose:

Best noise canceling deal

Bose QuietComfort

$179 (save $170)

Best Premium Deal

Bose QuietComfort Ultra

$379 (save $70)

Best earbuds deal

Bose Ultra Open Earbuds

$199 (save $100)

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.

Bose QuietComfort Headphones

$179 at Amazon
$349 Save $170

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

Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones

$379 at Amazon
$449 Save $70

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

Bose Ultra Open Earbuds

$199 at Amazon
$299 Save $100

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.

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

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 09:50:39 +0000

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 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.

Why we like it

The Lego Artemis Space Launch System is a bestseller that almost never goes on sale if you buy it directly from Lego. Right now, it's 20% off for Prime Day, which drops the $59.99 price down to $47.99. Or, you could pick it up today and save 20% on the $59.99 list price, bringing it down to just $47.99. For a 632-piece set that measures 27.5 inches tall and has a pretty cool real-world analog, this set is a Prime Day steal. As a bonus, it comes with four astronaut nanofigures.

Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra (2025)

$357.24 at Amazon
$649.99 Save $292.75

Prime Day is in full swing, and Samsung’s Galaxy Watch Ultra (2025) has already dropped to a new low. Right now it’s $357.24 on Amazon, down from $649.99 — its lowest price yet.

This smartwatch sits at the higher end of Samsung’s lineup and focuses on longer battery life, fitness tracking, and outdoor use. It can run for multiple days on a single charge, depending on usage, which makes it good for travel or training than most standard smartwatches.

It tracks sleep, workouts, and heart rate, then turns that data into simple summaries of your activity and recovery, so you can see patterns over time rather than just raw numbers. The running features adjust guidance based on your pace and heart rate, giving you feedback during workouts.

For outdoor use, it offers strong water resistance, a titanium case, and accurate GPS tracking to maintain location accuracy in areas where the signal can be unreliable, such as busy streets or hiking trails.

All color options are discounted, with prices ranging from $348.27 to $434.99, depending on the finish. Titanium White is the lowest at $348.27, and both Titanium Gray and Titanium Silver are priced at $434.99.

Grab the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra (2025) at Amazon, before your “I’ll start tomorrow” becomes the new normal.

Daily Shows Josh Johnson gives hilarious breakdown of Trumps reflecting pool saga

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 09:25:55 +0000

Donald Trump's $15 million renovation of the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool swiftly managed to turn it green, and the president is blaming vandals.

In the Daily Show monologue above, Josh Johnson plays back-to-back clips of Trump accusing someone of cutting the pool with a knife, before showing a clip from two months earlier in which he said such an act was impossible: "I don't want to give anybody any ideas. If you had a knife, you couldn't even cut it," Trump said.

"I've never seen someone have a line of logic so stupid they reverse-Inception themselves," says Johnson. "Me from before had the idea to never. I told myself it couldn't be done, and then I forgot. That's why it happened.

"Look, I'll admit right now I'm one of Trump's biggest haters. But Donnie, let me help you out: You have got to chill. People are not shanking the pool at night. Also, algae can't be that hard to get rid of. I mean damn, you got one of the biggest algae eaters in your cabinet."

FIFA World Cup schedule today: Games, kickoff times, livestream info for June 24

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 09:00:00 +0000

We're into the last round of the 2026 World Cup group games, and the excitement isn't letting up — these latest games decide who advances to the knockout stages and who will travel home empty-handed. And with some teams advancing from the third place in the groups, it's going to be tense.

Today, June 24, sees Brazil look to continue their momentum against Scotland. Canada are trying to secure a spot in their first ever knockout game at a World Cup.

It all kicks off today at 3 p.m. ET, with respective group games scheduled to take place simultaneously. Here's everything you need to know to tune in live today.

FIFA World Cup schedule today: June 24

Group B: Bosnia-Herzegovina vs. Qatar (Seattle Stadium) — kickoff at 3 p.m. ET
Group B: Switzerland vs. Canada (Vancouver Stadium) — kickoff at 3 p.m. ET
Group C: Morocco vs. Haiti (Atlanta Stadium) — kickoff at 6 p.m. ET
Group C: Morocco vs. Haiti (Miami Stadium) — kickoff at 6 p.m. ET
Group A: Czechia vs. Mexico (Mexico City Stadium) — kickoff at 9 p.m. ET
Group A: South Africa vs. South Korea (Monterrey Stadium) — kickoff at 9 p.m. ET

How to watch FIFA World Cup games today

Watch Bosnia-Herzegovina vs. Qatar

Bosnia-Herzegovina are yet to win a game at the 2026 World Cup. It's mathematically possible for them to automatically advance if Switzerland or Canada beat each other by a significant number of goals and Bosnia-Herzegovina beat Qatar by four or more. The latter result is definitely possible considering the hammering that Qatar took from the Canadians in their last fixture. That said, Qatar will be playing to reclaim some pride.

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

Watch Switzerland vs. Canada

It's safe to assume that both co-hosts Canada and Switzerland will advance to the knockouts. They sit at first and second place in Group B, with enough points and a good enough goal difference to hold off Bosnia-Herzegovina and Qatar (unless these games go absolutely goal crazy). The big question is whether Canada can repeat their performance against Qatar, which saw them win 6-0, against much stronger opposition in Switzerland.

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

Watch Morocco vs. Haiti

Haiti are pretty much out, barring something absolutely spectacular against Morocco, the defending African Cup of Nations champions (albeit controversially). They ran rings around the mighty Brazil for parts of their opening game and held firm in a win over Scotland. The Moroccans will approach this as a tune up match, and you can expect them to aim for a statement win. After reaching the semi finals at the last World Cup, Morocco are now looking to go all the way.

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

Watch Brazil vs. Scotland

Brazil struggled in their opening game against Morocco, drawing 1-1, but found their groove with a 3-0 win over Haiti. Now they're looking to prove they're still the most exciting team on the planet in this final group game for Scotland. For the Scots this is a big game — they need to beat Brazil to automatically advance or secure a draw to be in with a chance of advancing in third place.

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

Watch Czechia vs. Mexico

Czechia need a win for a chance at automatic promotion but are facing the toughest team in Group A. Indeed, Mexico have already qualified and have looked very good so far — this is a tough game for the Czechs. There's a chance of advancing from third place so Czechia will want to score as many goals as possible. And it's possible that Mexico will take their foot off the gas.

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

Watch South Africa vs. South Korea

South Korea looked good in their opening win against Czechia but let their performance slip against Mexico in the second game. South Africa will prove easier competition and the Koreans will look to secure a win and automatically advance. South Africa have looked poor so far and need a win for any kind of chance of clinging onto their spot in the tournament.

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

Geek out over the best gadgets of 2026 (so far)

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 09:00:00 +0000

The best new gadgets of 2026 include smartphones and wireless microphones with innovative display technologies, audio gear with incredible noise cancellation, and practical products for the home. There's just one problem.

Thanks to RAMageddon, it's not a good time to be an early adopter. A lot of the year's best tech products arrived with higher-than-usual prices. Fortunately, we've also seen established tech firms like Apple, Nothing, and Xreal prioritizing more affordable products, at least so far.

As we await a Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event in July and Apple's iPhone launch (where we expect to see the first foldable iPhone) in Septembers, here are our favorites from the year's first half.

Apple MacBook Neo

Credit: Joe Maldonado / Mashable

Release date: March 11, 2026
Price: Starts at $599 ($499 with education discount)
Mashable score and awards: 4.8/5, Mashable Choice Award

The MacBook Neo is the colorful new budget laptop from Apple, which burst onto the laptop scene in March. There's nothing in the Windows laptop market that even comes close to matching its feature set and design at this price point. Haters were skeptical of its A18 Pro Chip — but as we noted in our MacBook Neo review, it performs surprisingly well and offers everything you expect from a MacBook.

Release date: Feb. 12, 2026
Price: $329.99
Mashable score and awards: 4.6/5, Mashable Choice Award

The newest flagship Sony noise-cancelling earbuds were a long time coming, and arrived with a price increase over their predecessor. Still, these are some of the best wireless earbuds in the world for sound, active noise cancellation, and comfort. Read our full review of the Sony XM6 earbuds.

GoPro Mission One series

Release date: May 28, 2026
Price: Starts at $599.99
Mashable score and awards: 4.6/5, Mashable Choice Award

GoPro decided not to release a GoPro Hero 14 Black, instead offering an entirely new line of cameras. The GoPro Mission One series were designed to bridge the remaining gap between the best action cameras and true cinema-grade cameras, and based on our intitial testing, GoPro has succeeded.

The Mission One introduces a new and larger sensor, as well as a new processor, and the result is more flexibility for capturing professional-grade footage under any conditions. Read our hands-on with the GoPro Mission One Pro camera.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra

Release date: March 11, 2026
Price: $1,299.99
Mashable score and awards: 4.6/5, Mashable Choice Award

The new flagship Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra smartphone from Samsung has a powerful Snapdragon processor that outperforms Apple's latest A19 Pro chip. Add to that a stunning display, a full suite of AI tools, a 5,000mAh battery, and impressive cameras, and you have the best phone of the year so far. Samsung also introduced an exciting new hardware feature: the innovative Privacy Display.

Samsung Galaxy TriFold

U.S. Release date: Jan. 30, 2026
Price: $1,299.99
Mashable awards: Best of CES 2026

The Galaxy TriFold finally made it to the U.S. market in January, and was gone almost as soon as it arrived. Reports suggested Samsung was losing money with each unit it sold, given its advanced flexible display. Still, after trying out this one-of-a-kind phone at CES 2026, I couldn't stop thinking about it. Hopefully, we'll see something like it in the near future.

Insta360 Mic Pro

Credit: Amanda Yeo / Mashable

DJI has had the wireless microphone market on lock in recent years, but this recent release from Insta360 made us do a double-take. The lapel mics in this kit feature a customizable e-ink display, something we've never seen before in the category. It's a genius idea, and we expect to see more brands find unexpected ways to use displays like this in the future.

We're still testing these microphones, but they've already earned a spot as one of the best new gadgets of 2026 for creators.

Release date: May 21, 2026
Price: $1,499.99
Mashable score and awards: 4.4/5, Mashable Selects

Here's a phone you can and should buy: The new flagship flip phone from Motorola. If you're a fan of the classic clam-shell design or just miss phones that can fit in your pocket, you'll appreciate this beauty. The Motorola Razr Ultra 2026 is a fantastic foldable with gorgeous displays and impressive performance, and its only real flaw is its price tag. Read our full review of the Motorola Razr Ultra.

Nothing (4a) Pro phone

Credit: Adam Doud / Mashable

Release date: March 13, 2026
Price: $499.99
Mashable score and awards: 4.25/5, Mashable Selects

We've seen some solid mid-range phones released so far this year: the iPhone 17e, Google Pixel 10a, and this new handset from British brand Nothing. What makes the Nothing (4a) stand out is the Glyph Matrix on the back of the phone. Expect to see more brands making use of the back of phones for features like this in the near future.

In an age where all smartphones look pretty much the same, credit Nothing for its unique designs. Read our full review of the Nothing (4a) Pro.

Mashable score and awards: 4/5, Mashable Selects

The best new tech should feel a little bit like a magic trick, and that's what it was like trying these earbuds for the first time at CES 2026. The best open earbuds keep you in touch with your environment, yet Shokz found a way to add genuine noise-reduction (not noise cancellation).

They don't totally block out the world, which would defeat the whole purpose of open earbuds. But they do offer noticeable noise reduction so you can fully appreciate your music. Read our full review of Shokz OpenFit Pro earbuds.

DJI Osmo Pocket 4

Global release date: Apr. 16, 2026
Price: n/a

Among creators, the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 is a sequel years in the making. For the last few years, whenever I attended an event with a lot of creators, the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 was a common sight. Here's the bad news: Thanks to the U.S. DJI drone ban and the Chinese company's issues with the FCC, the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 isn't officially available in the U.S. yet. We have a review from Mashable's Australian team in the works, but for now, U.S. shoppers can only get this device through third-party sellers, typically with a markup.

Lego Smart Bricks

Global release date: March 1, 2026

Mashable awards: Best of CES 2026

Mashable reporters and editors were on hand when Lego debuted its new Smart Play system at CES 2026, and again in June when the company unveiled its upcoming Pokémon smart sets. Lego calls its smart bricks and mini figures the biggest evolution to the brick in 50 years, and we think they have a lot of potential as screen-free tech for young people.

Price: $529

I've been testing a ton of smart glasses in 2026, but nothing released this year has been as exciting as the new Xreal 1S. As much as I appreciate the brand's just-released ROG Xreal R1 Gaming AR Glasses with a 240Hz refresh rate, they're designed for use with handheld gaming consoles — which have become outrageously expensive thanks, of course, to RAMageddon.

The Xreal 1S offer a lot of the best features of the brand's best-in-class augmented reality technology, at a more accessible price point.
