Google’s Pixel 10 launched in August 2025 at $799, which already made it a reasonable flagship then, if you liked Google’s software-first approach to Android. Now it’s down to $549 for the 128GB unlocked model on Amazon’s Spring Sale—a $250 drop and its lowest price yet, according to price trackers. The Pixel 10 Pro is also discounted to $749 from $999, which puts both phones in a much more competitive place than they were at launch. Buying an unlocked Pixel 10 means you are not tied to any carrier, so you can switch networks, use local SIMs while t…

If you work out at home, investing in some adjustable dumbbells is a no-brainer. The math is simple: Buying individual pairs of dumbbells from five to 80 pounds in five-pound increments would cost well over $1,500 and eat up valuable floor space. Adjustable dumbbells deliver the same versatility for a fraction of that price, whichever brand you choose. Right now, the PowerBlock Elite EXP Adjustable Dumbbells are $339.51, down from their usual $449 price tag. That's a solid $110 savings for Amazon's Big Spring Sale. …

Apple’s latest tablet is still one of the most powerful pieces of hardware you can carry in a backpack, and right now, the refurbished 13-inch M4 iPad Pro is on sale for $899.99 on StackSocial.

In Apple TV's Your Friends and Neighbors, Jon Hamm plays Andrew "Coop" Cooper, a recently divorced New York hedge fund manager who's even more recently, unemployed. In an effort to keep up an illusion that nothing in his life has changed, he begins breaking into the homes of his wealthy neighbors to steal and sell their stuff, inadvertently catching on to their secrets as well. (The friends and neighbors of the title include Amanda Peet, Olivia Munn, Mark Tallman, Hoon Lee, Lena Hall, and Aimee Carrero.) This dark comedy isn't exactly about how hard it is to be a once-rich suburban white guy, but neither is it a pointed l…

We may earn a commission from links on this page. Deal pricing and availability subject to change after time of publication. Spending $300 on a gaming monitor usually means picking a lane: You either go for resolution or speed and live with the compromise. The ASUS ROG Strix XG27UCG tries to ease that trade-off. It’s currently down to $299 (originally $449) as part of Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, which ends today, and this is the lowest it has dropped, according to price trackers. The idea is simple: use it as a sharp 4K display most of the time, then switch to a faster 1080p mode when you care more about responsiveness. …

Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is wrapping up, and the Nothing Phone (3) has dropped to $599 (originally $799) for the 12GB RAM and 256GB model. According to price trackers, that's the lowest price the phone has reached so far. This is Nothing’s most ambitious phone yet (according to this PCMag review), and it shows in how it tries to compete directly with flagship devices while still doing its own thing.

RAM, short for random access memory, is the high-speed, short-term storage that allows computer programs to quickly access the information they need—it's a crucial component of nearly every electronic device we rely on every single day. The price of RAM has risen steeply since last fall, but there may be a bit of a break on the horizon. What's going on with the RAM shortage?Demand for RAM is soaring, in large part thanks to AI. As The Verge reports, companies like Google, Meta, OpenAI, and Anthropic are buying up memory for their data centers, leading to a severe shortage in availability from major memory suppliers for consumer products like laptops, smartphones, and gam…

Lifehacker just launched a collection of tips and info about embracing retro technology, so I combed through Amazon's Big Spring Sale for the next best thing: retro-inspired technology. These prices are so low, you'll think it's 1998. These digital cameras look like they're from the distant pastIf you want a digital camera that makes a statement, check out the CHUZHAO Digital TLR Camera. It looks like a twin-lens reflex camera from the 1940s, when you shot from the waist. It doesn't use film, though: It's a 12MP digital camera in disguise. It's curr…

Amazon's Big Spring Sale ends tonight at 11:59 p.m. PT (that's April 1 at 2:59 a.m. ET), which mens you still have a few hours to snag some great deals on fitness equipment.

Starting tomorrow, April 2, the prices of all PlayStation 5 consoles and the PlayStation Portal are going up by as much as $150. It's no surprise, since we've been hearing about the cost of chips and storage going up over the years; throw in tariffs and a ongoing strong demand for the consoles, you start to get the whole picture. Luckily, it's not too late: You can still save up to $150 by buying refurbished consoles directly from the Direct PlayStation store, which come with a one-year warranty and h…

When it comes to gaming monitors, having an ultra-wide screen takes the experience to the next level, with a more immersive experience than a regular monitor. Unfortunately, that improved experience tends to come at a much higher price. But right now, Amazon is selling the 34-inch Samsung Odyssey G5 for $279.99 (originally $399.99), which is the second-lowest price this monitor has ever been, according to price-tracking tools.

The Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S3 wireless over-ear ANC headphones are currently down to $279 (from $479) on Woot, marking their lowest price so far (according to price trackers), with free shipping for Prime members and a $6 fee for others. The deal is expected to run for about a week or until it sells out, so availability could shift quickly depending on demand. The mix of fabric, aluminum, and synthetic leather gives these headphones a more premium touch than most all-plastic alternatives in this range, and their updated headband and thicker cushio…

It's officially the end of an era for the Samsung Galaxy community: Samsung is discontinuing its messaging app. If you're a Samsung Messages user, the company says you should plan to migrate to Google Messages to "upgrade your messaging experience." This deprecation isn't taking effect immediately, however. According to Samsung's official end of service announcement, the company will discontinue Samsung Messages in July 2026. That means you still have roughly three months to keep using the app, if it happens to be your messaging client of choice. That said, the company is encouraging users to set Google Messages as their default messaging app today to "maintain a consist…

Monitors with rolling stands are undeniably a bit of a niche product - while they might not be as popular as standalone TVs and gaming monitors, they offer an added perk: flexibility. Designed to easily move from room to room while remaining stable, they free up desk space and eliminate the need for a media stand, and offer height adjustability, making them a smart choice for studios, small apartments, and even home gyms. Right now, the 32-inch Samsung Movingstyle M7 4K smart monitor with an adjustable rolling stand is down to a record-low price of …

This week's collection might seem like a random assortment of odds and ends, but there's a throughline: vibes and absurdism over logic and order. Slang words like 7x7=49 and lowkenuinely don't make logical sense, but they are intuitively perfect. The Sea Lion is a purely absurdist anti "dance-craze" taking over TikTok, and Pizza Movie takes "drug flick" tropes to surreal new levels. In other words, Gen Z and A are not trying to make sense of anything anymore. What does the "7x7=49" meme actually mean?This piece of math-slang is growing popular on TikTok as a way of explaining what women find attractive in men. It's about how the equation feels. 7X7=49 makes intuitive sen…

Now, if you recently acquired a Kindle—recently meaning anytime in the past 10 years—you don't need to worry. But for anyone who is still rocking an older Kindle, you might be affected. The news started spreading on Tuesday, followed by a confirmation from Amazon. In a statement to PCMag, Amazon said the following: “Starting May 20, 2026, customers using Kindle and Kindle Fire devices released in 2012 and earlier will no longer be able to purchase, borrow, or download new content via the Kindle Store.” Amazon's first ever Kindle dropped back in 2007,…

We may earn a commission from links on this page. Sleep scores may be one of the most-checked metrics in wearable health tracking, but the companies behind them haven't agreed on a shared language. A Garmin wearer with a 75 is in "Fair" territory. An Oura wearer with a 75 is doing "Good." An Apple Watch user with a 75 might see "OK" or "High" depending on which software version they're running. Where are these numbers coming from, and what are they actually telling you? Each platform uses different scales, labels, and underlying signals to arrive at that single morning number. Here's a breakdown of how the most popular wearables calculate your "sleep score," and what tha…

The next season of HBO salacious, schadenfreude-rich dramedy The White Lotus doesn't premiere until October, so you'll need to wait months yet to witness the antics of an all-new all-star cast (Helena Bonham Carter!

While iOS has caught up in recent years, Android is still the most versatile OS when it comes to smartphone gaming—especially if you're looking beyond downloading games from app stores. Android supports a huge number of emulators, as well as game controllers and game pads. If you want to play a game, there's a decent chance you can get it up and running on Android. And yet, the OS doesn't have something that many other modern gaming platforms do: native controller remapping. The idea is, you get to choose which of your controller's buttons do what. If you'd prefer your down button to have the same effect as the L1 button, or the D-pad to have the same inputs as the right…

YouTube is a melting pot for everything from music videos and movie trailers to wilderness survival tutorials and funny animal clips. You could quite literally spend all day, every day plugged into the app and never run out of things to watch, or rabbit holes to go down. That's great, but it's also something of a problem—many of us use YouTube in different ways and for different purposes at different times, and that can make organizing and finding new content tricky. Just because you've spent four hours trying to troubleshoot a car engine problem doesn't mean you necessarily ever want to see a vehicle maintenance video ever again. For me, the issue is my love of lo-fi and…
