Amazon announces Prime Day 2025 dates, and the 4-day rumors are true

Mashable - Tue, 06/17/2025 - 07:00

It's official: Prime Day 2025 will take place July 8 through July 11, Amazon confirmed in a press release early June 17.

The four-day window is a first for Amazon — previous Prime Days were just 48 hours long. It's actually a wonder that Amazon managed to wait until its tenth Prime Day to have its sale take up a majority of the work week. Whether the extension is related to the decade anniversary or inspired by challenging market conditions, we can't say for sure. We can say this: we saw it coming months ago.

When exactly does Prime Day start this year?

Amazon's signature shopping event will kick off on Tuesday, July 8, shortly after the Fourth of July weekend. Typically, shopping events at Amazon start at 3 a.m. ET in the early morning hours, so in this case, a few hours after midnight on July 7. We expect the deals will stay live until around the same time the following Friday. We'll update this article if we learn anything new.

What else is new this year?

In addition to the four-day schedule, Amazon is introducing a new type of deal called Today's Big Deals. In a press release, Amazon describes these deals as "themed daily deal drops featuring some of the most exciting deals of the event, exclusive to Prime members. Members can enjoy deep discounts across top brands like Samsung, Kiehl’s, and Levi’s. These special offers launch daily at midnight PDT and remain available for a limited time, while supplies last."

Do I need a Prime account?

For the most part, yes. While some deals will be available to anyone who shops at Amazon, whether you're a Prime member or not, most deals are Prime exclusives. Prime members also get access to free 2-day shipping and returns, as well as access to Prime Video and other perks like Grubhub+. Fortunately, if you're not a member yet, it's easy to sign up for a free trial. You can pay for Amazon Prime memberships monthly, so there's nothing stopping you from canceling your membership once your Prime Day packages arrive.

Once your trial is over, Prime memberships cost $14.99 a month, or $7.49 a month for Prime Student.

There will probably be a higher volume of Prime Day deals this year just because there's more time to squeeze them all in. In theory, the deals should also last longer, which might be less stressful for buyers who want to ponder the items in their cart for a few days. This'll be nice for bigger investments that would ideally involve some quick research before buying, like a TV, laptop, or robot vacuum.

Plus, it's easy to frantically buy a ton of stuff you don't need on Prime Day just because it's on sale and just in case that price goes up tomorrow. Perhaps the extended time window will act as a cushion against time-sensitive panic buys.

This is barring the infamous lightning deals, which drop on the hour and have a limited inventory that can be claimed.

However, the actual dates of Prime Day aren't exactly hard cutoffs for most Prime Day deals. Just like Black Friday lasts essentially the entire month of November, we expect many Prime Day deals to linger throughout July. Many brands also unlock their Prime Day deals days ahead of the official start. Amazon itself tends to open discounts on some of its own devices early, though it is pretty strict about ending its own discounts once the clock strikes 12 (a.m. PT or 3 a.m. ET). If we see deals dropping early, we'll update this story immediately.

Hurdle hints and answers for June 17, 2025

Mashable - Tue, 06/17/2025 - 06:00

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.

There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it'll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters clearly shown.

An important note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle.

If you find yourself stuck at any step of today's Hurdle, don't worry! We have you covered.

The best drones for beginners

Mashable - Tue, 06/17/2025 - 06:00

This content originally appeared on Mashable for a US audience and has been adapted for the UK audience.

Whatever activity you try your hand at, you always start off as, well... a beginner. Hey, even the likes of Lionel Messi or Simone Biles were newbies once upon a time. And who knows? Maybe you’ll reach the heights of an elite droning competition one day.

For now, it’s all about learning the ropes — or rotor blades in the case of drones. To help you get started, we’ve looked for the best, most capable drones available.

Picking a drone isn't as easy as it sounds. There's more to this droning lark than just pressing takeoff. There are different types of drone-based activities plus regulations (not to mention — yawn — administrative costs) to know about before getting your frequent drone flyer miles. That applies whether you’re interested in drone photography or racing or mastering the art of the 360° roll. Here's everything you need to know, along with a roundup of select drones for beginners.

What is a drone?

It seems simple but it’s worth reiterating. In basic terms, drones are remote-controlled aerial vehicles. They can be controlled and utilised in a variety of ways — not to mention flown at various distances and heights, depending on how advanced they are. You’ve probably heard a lot about drones in recent years. Drones sometimes make headlines thanks to their use in military and aerospace technologies.

Are there different types of drones?

In terms of the kind of drones listed here — i.e. drones used for leisure activities — the most popular type is the multi-rotor drone. They’re often small and lightweight and have four rotors (sometimes called quadcopters). Some of the drones on the list are also “mini” — palm sized flyers that are easily portable, but still come equipped with decent camera equipment and other features.

What is drone photography?

The most common use for drones is photography. In basic terms, you can fly a drone and capture aerial footage, but photography features and functionality go way beyond simple birds-eye-view shots. Drones are used by filmmakers and professional photographers, and they offer all kinds of shooting modes that can track, follow, and spiral around your photography subject. This is usually controlled in a smart device app. Some drones also have advanced cameras that are capable of recording and transmitting 4K quality footage. Depending on the drone, they may be able to transmit this footage in real time or even post straight to social media. But you don't have to be a pro to use a camera drone. They're also great for fun snaps and general use.

What is an FPV drone?

FVP drones ("first person view") allow you to control your drone by beaming a real-time video to your device or a pair of VR-like googles. In other words, it puts you in the pilot’s seat. FPV drones are usually used for drone racing, a popular trend among drone hobbyists, so they tend to be built for speed and agility. Also look out for "tiny whoop" drones — micro-sized FPV racers.

What flight features to drones have?

There are all kinds of flight features to know about. Some drones (depending on how advanced they are) will allow you to map a predetermined route and fly using GPS, for instance. Common features include one-button takeoff and altitude hold, which means the drone can hover in the same spot mid-air. There's also headless mode, which allows your drone to fly in any direction, and 360° flips at the push of a button. Most decent drones will have return to home (RTH) technology, which means the drone will automatically fly back to you when you're finished flying or the battery is low. Hi-spec drones may also have obstacle avoidance sensors to prevent collisions.

How far does a drone fly?

Most beginner-level drones fly from a range of anything between 80 and 500 metres. Some models, however, will fly out several kilometres. It all depends on the kind of tech you want and how much you’re willing to spend.

How do you register your drone?

It may come as a surprise but if your drone weighs over 250 grams, you have to register it with the CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) for a small fee. Piloting an unregistered drone is against the law. Go to CAA.co.uk for all the rules and regulations and CAA Consultations for drone registration. Once you've done that, you can start thinking about which device you actually want.

What is the best drone for beginners?

We've put in the air miles and landed on the very best models. There's something for every type of budding drone pilot on this list. Just read on and pick a favourite.

These are the best drones for beginners in 2025.

Tinder launches Double Date feature to swipe with your BFF

Mashable - Tue, 06/17/2025 - 01:01

Today, Tinder launches Double Date, a feature that lets users pair with friends and match with other pairs. Users in the U.S. can try it now, with a global rollout planned for next month. (Some Tinder users online have already spotted the Double Date feature.)

Here's how it works: Tap the Double Date icon (two smiley emojis) at the top right corner of the main screen, and invite up to three friends to create a "pair" with. Then you can scroll through profiles and Like other pairs.

SEE ALSO: Feeling thrifty: 10 free dating apps to try in 2025

In settings, you can choose whether to prioritize Double Dates or see them at all. You can also choose whether to show up on your friend's profile or whether your friend shows up on yours, according to a video from a user.

Double Date builds on Tinder features Matchmaker, which lets loved ones recommend profiles, and Share My Date, which allows users to do just that with friends and family.

Women who tested Double Date were three times more likely to Like a pair than they were individual profiles, Tinder found in 2025 internal data. The match rates have also been significantly higher for those using the feature, the popular hookup app reported in its press release.

Individual users sent 35 percent more messages in Double Date conversations than in typical one-on-one chats. Almost 15 percent of users who accepted a Double Date invite were new to Tinder or recently reactivated their accounts.

In testing, nearly 90 percent of Double Date profiles came from users under 29 years old. (Half of Tinder users are apparently Gen Z as of 2024.) This feature may play into incoming CEO Spencer Rascoff's plan to change Tinder and its reputation to attract more Gen Z users. Rascoff wants the app to move away from its hookup reputation, as young adults are having less sex and drinking less alcohol than previous generations.

Rascoff is also instilling "product principles" at Tinder, one of which is "fewer likes, better types." On LinkedIn, Rascoff wrote, "Users don't want more matches, they want better ones... We're building a smarter experience that surfaces the right person, at the right time."

Tinder also made headlines recently for testing a height preference as a paid feature, reigniting a longtime internet discussion about height and dating.

How would the Trump T1 phone compare to the iPhone 16?

Mashable - Mon, 06/16/2025 - 23:02

The Trump family is entering the smartphone business. On Monday, the Trump Organization announced the September launch of Trump Mobile and the T1 smartphone — a $499, Android-based device. A Trump Mobile press release describes the phone as “sleek” and “American-made.”

Trump Mobile itself appears to be a licensing deal built on the back of Liberty Mobile, a "freedom-focused" mobile virtual network operator. (The Trump Mobile terms of use say the company is "powered by Liberty Mobile Wireless.") MVNOs are carriers, like Boost or Mint, that don't own any telecommunications infrastructure — instead piggybacking off networks like Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile. Trump Mobile says it will also provide extra perks to customers such as access to roadside assistance and telehealth services.

Unveiled by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. at Trump Tower on Mondaymarking 10 years since their father announced his 2016 campaign — Trump Mobile is another entry in the Trump Organization’s white labeling enterprise. Like meme coins, shoes, and steaks before it, this one banks on the enduring value of their dad's name.

Donald Trump has long pressured Apple CEO Tim Cook to bring iPhone production to the US, a move that analysts say could push the iPhone’s retail price as high as $3,000. Now, the Trump camp is selling its own "Made in America" phone to supporters who care where their devices come from. How it plans to pull off this manufacturing feat, we don't know.

So, how would the T1 compare to the base model iPhone 16?

The Trump Mobile T1 vs. Apple iPhone 16

Because no one has actually seen a T1 phone, we're relying entirely on Trump Mobile's promised specs for this comparison. The T1's specs fall firmly in mid-tier territory.

  • 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage

  • A 6.8-inch AMOLED screen

  • R120Hz refresh rate (with no listed resolution)

  • 50MP main camera, two 2MP auxiliary cameras

  • 16MP selfie camera

  • 5000mAh battery

  • Fingerprint sensor and AI face unlock

  • Processor: Unknown

We have to note that the omission of the processor that powers the Trump Mobile T1 phone is very unusual.

For comparison, here are the key iPhone 16 specs:

  • 8GB of RAM and 128GB, 256GB, or 512GB storage

  • 48MP main camera, two 12MP auxiliary cameras

  • 12MP selfie camera

  • 6.1‑inch OLED display

  • Up to 2,000 nits of peak brightness

  • 60Hz refresh rate (2,556 x 1,179 resolution)

  • 3,500 mAh battery (up to 22 hours of video playback)

  • Face ID

  • A18 Bionic chip

That should say "battery." Credit: Trump Mobile How does the T1 compare to other smartphones?

The Google Pixel 9a, widely praised as the best value in Android phones this year, costs the same as the T1 and runs on Google's custom Tensor chip. The T1’s pricing also mirrors that of the now-infamous Freedom Phone, a 2021 MAGA-branded device that turned out to be a rebranded budget handset from China.

The iPhone 16, Apple’s latest flagship, starts at $799. For that price, you're getting Apple’s A18 chip — one of the most powerful mobile chipsets on the market.

But let’s get granular. Compare the Trump T1 to Apple’s budget-friendly iPhone 16e, which costs $599, just $100 more. The 16e offers 8GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, the same A18 chip (with a 4-core GPU), and a 6.1-inch display.

Trump's fans could argue that the Trump Mobile carrier plan is the real draw, since it works with any unlocked phone. However, at $47.45 per month (a nod to Trump being both the 45th and 47th president), the plan costs about twice as much as comparable offerings from MVNOs like Boost or Mint Mobile. Liberty Mobile, the MVNO powering Trump Mobile, offers nearly identical plans for $20 per month elsewhere.

At that price point, you might just be paying for the branding.

Lastly, we have yet to hear any details on the T1 phone beyond what's been posted to Trump Mobile. The processor omission is a potential red flag, as is the fact that the only other made-in-America phone we're aware of, the Librem 5 USA, is priced at $1,599.

All the Sharks trailer: Photograph sharks, win money in Netflixs new reality competition

Mashable - Mon, 06/16/2025 - 22:34

Netflix looks to take a bite out of Shark Week with its upcoming shark-centric reality competition show, All the Sharks.

SEE ALSO: Summer TV preview: All the TV shows you need to know, and where to stream them

The series, hosted by Tom "The Blowfish" Hird, pits four teams of shark experts against one another. Their goal? To photograph as many types of shark as they can. We're not just talking about some sharks. We're talking about — say it with me — All the Sharks. Whichever team wins will earn $50,000 for their marine charity of choice.

To snap their shark pics, these teams will dive into shark habitats in six stunning locations: the Maldives, the Galápagos Islands, the Bahamas, South Africa, Japan, and Australia. Every shark contestants get on camera earns them points. The rarer the shark, the more points you get. Simple, right? Well, wait until you throw challenging diving conditions and fast-moving currents into the mix.

As someone with a crushing fear of both sharks and the deep sea, All the Sharks sounds like a Netflix executive found a way to turn my worst nightmare into a show. However, the trailer for All the Sharks is far from terrifying. Instead, its cast of passionate shark fans hopes to upend people's expectations of these fascinating, ecologically important predators.

The full trailer above teases several breathtaking encounters with sharks, including a snake-like epaulette shark — a type of shark I didn't know existed until now! And of course, it wouldn't be a shark show without appearances from great whites, tiger sharks, and hammerheads. While I'm not quite ready to get in the water with these bad boys, I feel perfectly intrigued watching them — and the teams trying to photograph them — from the comfort of my own couch.

All the Sharks premieres July 4 on Netflix.
