The adorable Grogu with Hover Pram set is expectedly sold out after an incredible 50% discount. But that was hardly Amazon's only good Lego Star Wars deal.

Alternate Wordle versions created by fans also sprang up, including battle royale Squabble, music identification game Heardle, and variations like Dordle and Quordle that make you guess multiple words at once.
Wordle eventually became so popular that it was purchased by the New York Times, and TikTok creators even livestream themselves playing.

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

The 5 best noise-cancelling earbuds include the most comfortable buds weve ever tested
Every top brand has its own take on ANC earbuds, each with a unique style and a plethora of features. Since you can't possibly try all the latest earbuds, the Mashable team has taken on the task of reviewing the best ANC earbuds for you.
We've recently updated this guide with our new favorite picks, including the Apple AirPods Pro 3 and second-generation Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds. The latter have already gone on sale ahead of Black Friday, but don't worry if the others haven't just yet — our team will be tracking the best headphones and earbuds deals all the way up to and through the shopping holiday.
SEE ALSO: I found 30+ early Black Friday tech deals I'd recommend to friends and family: Save on Apple, Samsung, DJI What are the best noise-cancelling earbuds? Not all earbuds are created equal — some are far more comfortable than others. Credit: Samantha Mangino / MashableWhile there are plenty of audio brands that provide good sound quality and noise cancellation, audio leaders Bose and Sony are in a league of their own. Not only do they offer phenomenal ANC, but they also make music and podcasts sound better. On a good pair of headphones, "Espresso" by Sabrina Carpenter sounds even catchier, somehow.
Earbuds usually aren't as comfortable as over-the-ear headphones. I know this well, as I've found many pairs of earbuds that just plain don't fit in my ear. Others are downright uncomfortable. Once again, Bose offers the most comfortable headphones and earbuds. However, Bose and Sony aren't the only brands out there. That's why we set out to test the best the market offers and see what makes a great pair of wireless earbuds.
How do noise-cancelling earbuds work? Noise-cancelling earbuds are small enough to slip in your pocket. Credit: Samantha Mangino / MashableAll noise-cancelling headphones, including earbuds, have some passive noise cancellation. While over-the-ear headphones naturally block out noise by wrapping around the ears, earbuds don't block sound as effectively. Instead of covering your ears, wireless earbuds deliver sound directly into the ear canal to drown out other noises. They rely more on active noise cancellation (ANC) to reduce environmental noise.
ANC is an electronic process within the headphones. Internal microphones listen to your surroundings and then invert the sound, effectively canceling it. Sometimes, with noise-cancelling headphones and earbuds, you'll hear a slight buzzing or humming in the background, and that's the ANC at work. The best ANC earbuds shouldn't have this buzzing, however.
20+ early Black Friday gaming laptop deals: Score record lows on Alienware, ASUS, MSI, and more
There's no better way to celebrate the holidays than getting an awesome Black Friday deal on a gaming laptop and ignoring the entire family. I'm only half joking, but Black Friday really is the best time of year to upgrade your gaming setup. And if you don't fancy having a big gaming PC dominating the corner of your front room, a gaming laptop is a perfect alternative.
Not only is it a space saver, but it can still work alongside gaming monitors, keyboards, mice, and all the other essentials you'll need if you decide you prefer a desktop setup down the line. You can even extend your laptop display for some dual screen action, because two screens is always better than one. How else will you watch YouTube whilst working?

So you're not getting a 5000 series RTX card, but DLSS 3 is still brilliant at generating frames, and there's some great workarounds out there to run DLSS 4 on 4000 series GPUs if you surf github. 8GB DDR5 RAM is enough for 1080p gaming and so is the i5 processor. In all honesty, a gaming laptop for $579.99 isn't going to run Cyberpunk 2077 at full settings with ray tracing, but who cares at this price point. It's more than capable and you can simply upgrade the RAM down the line if you fancy.

It looks like an RTX 5060 is the sweet spot for mid-range gaming laptops, which is absolutley fine. You're always going to get less performance from a gaming laptop GPU compared to it's full-fat desktop alternative, but you have the power of native DLSS 4 to generate those extra frames you're looking for and best-in-class image upscaling. That simply means you can set your games to a lower resolution, then RTX 5060 pumps up the resolution artificially so you're getting more performance. The AI side of this laptop will help with that, too. The Ryzen 7 260 is built to handle the extra load and a massive 32GB DDR5 RAM is overkill. This is a cracking Black Friday deal for a gaming laptop that won't break the bank (much).

I picked this deal as the extra you'll be paying to get into RTX 5080 territory simply isn't worth it. This is a perfect 1440p gaming machine, which if we're being honest is the sweet spot for PC gaming right now. If you're looking for 4k 60 FPS+ gaming, you're going to save a fortune just buying or building a gaming PC. The 3ms response time and 240Hz refresh rate on this 2.5k screen means you can push well over 200 FPS at 1440p for most games, and RTX 5070 alongside the Ultra 9 275HX processor will get you there. With DLSS 4 tech baked in, there's no reason why you can't play the biggest and best games on max settings at 1440p with this setup, with possible headroom left over for decent ray tracing performance on some titles.

The 8 best budget headphones weve tested under $100
If you want to cheat the system a bit and get your hands on incredible, crisp sound from a pair of headphones under $100, we've got you. You no longer need to choose between a cheap pair of headphones and incredible features like active noise cancellation, Hi-Res Audio certification, and multi-device pairing.
SEE ALSO: Mashable will send the best Black Friday deals directly to your phone — how it worksSure, you might be doing an IRL side eye emoji regarding the class-leading Sony WH-1000xM6 headphones — unveiled at the start of summer — but those things will cost you $450. Don't bother dishing out that much money when you can get headphones for a fraction of the price (with much of the same functionality) or, better yet, noise-cancelling headphones that carry longer battery life and a stronger sonic punch than the AirPods Max. Speaking of which, did you know that users were previously reporting that their Apple headphones suffered "condensation death" after being exposed to moisture buildup? Fortunately, our wireless headphones suggestions are all models you can wear for lengthy stretches — without stressing about their impending expiration date.
What are the best budget headphones?If you're still an Apple loyalist when it comes to headphones, stick with us for a sec. You'll soon discover that these top picks from popular budget audio brands like 1More, Anker, and JBL are giving the market’s best a run for their money. We even have a bargain entry from Sony that’s well worth a look.
Don't believe it? You'll want to see for yourself by reading our reviews of the best headphones under $100 below — especially as Black Friday approaches, and your odds of scoring an even better deal on our picks go up.
What differentiates budget vs. higher-end headphones?In case we weren't clear enough before, cheaper does not mean worse by any means (and vice versa) when it comes to headphones. Not always, at least.
Yet, the general trend still stands that the "higher-end" a pair of headphones is, the more likely you are to get better sound quality (aka undistorted bass), more playtime, and state-of-the-art features like adaptive ANC.
Budget headphones are known to leak sound more often than their pricier alternatives, and they'll likely have fewer extras, like spatial audio for immersive 3D sound and TalkThru technology (which amplifies your convo buddy's voice while reducing music volume instantly) featured in some of JBL’s flagship headphones.
Nonetheless, we made it our mission to find headphones — both on-ear and over-ear models — that aren't "higher-end" in price and borrow a lot of standout functionality from their more expensive counterparts.
10+ early Black Friday deals on air fryers: Huge deals on Ninja, Cuisinart, and Instant pot
As we get closer to Black Friday, it’s time to start thinking about all those products you’ve always wanted but never quite had the cash to splurge on. For us, that includes new kitchen essentials such as the air fryer. It’s an increasingly popular (not to mention healthier) way of cooking, but not every kitchen is stocked just yet. It’s one of those countertop appliances that feels like a luxury purchase — but once you’ve got one, you’ll wonder why it took you so long to invest.
SEE ALSO: The 17 best Advent calendars to buy in November. Take advantage of early Black Friday sales.That’s exactly what Black Friday is all about. And even though there’s still a week to go until the year’s biggest sale event begins for real, there are plenty of early Black Friday deals already live. So, if you are in the market for your first air fryer — or perhaps you need to upgrade from one that’s already served you well — here’s a deliciously priced selection of air fryers for everyone.

When it comes to air fryer technology, there’s one name that cooks the competition — not to mention fries, wings, meat, fish, vegetables, baked treats, and pretty much anything else you can think of. That name, of course, is Ninja. There are several Ninja air fryer models included in the early Black Friday deals, but the Ninja XL is the best all-rounder for most households: A 5.5 quart multifunctional fryer that offers five cooking — Air Fry, Air Roast, Bake, Reheat, and Dehydrate. It’s easy to control the settings and temperature, with plenty of room for healthily frying hefty meals.

The Chefman TurboTouch Fry isn’t the only budget air fryer included in the early Black Friday deals — there are even cheaper models available — but this gets our pick for overall brand quality at such a brilliantly low price. It has a 4 quart capacity, which is plenty for regular households, plus a selection of preset cooking modes. It’s already good value at the list price of $99.99, but with a full 50% off ahead of Black Friday, this is a bargain at just $49.99 — perfect if you’re looking to try healthier air frying for the first time.

It’s another brilliant air fryer from the always impressive Ninja, but this one is made for larger households and big hungry families. It costs more than the above Ninja, but it’s packing almost twice the capacity with two cooking baskets and DualZone cooking — which essentially means you can fry up two different foods with different modes and temperatures. It intelligently syncs the cooking so both foods finish cooking at the same time, and each basket is big enough for a whole chicken. This one has six cooking modes, throwing an Air Broiling option into the mix.

Jimmy Kimmel has the perfect response to Trump calling for him to be fired again
Trump ranting about Jimmy Kimmel online has become so common that the host barely bats an eyelid.
"I woke up this morning, I'm in bed, my wife comes out of the bathroom. She's got her phone, she goes, 'Um, Trump tweeted you should be fired again.' I was like 'Oh', then I went downstairs and made bagels for the kids," says Jimmy Kimmel in the clip above, referring to a Truth Social post in which the president wrote "Get the bum off the air!!!"
"And he posted this, this is interesting, at 12:49am, 11 minutes after the show ended on the East coast," says Kimmel. "Which is nice, he watches us live. Hi Mr President! How are you? Thanks for watching us on TV instead of on YouTube, we appreciate that, and I'll tell ya, it's viewers like you that keep us on the air, ironically."
I found 5 Dyson Supersonic dupes that are almost as good as the real thing
It's a simple truth: Where there’s a Dyson product, there’s a dupe, and that holds especially true for Dyson beauty products. For the past several years, I've been on the hunt for the best Dyson Supersonic dupes.
The brand entered the beauty sphere in 2016 when it released the now-iconic Dyson Supersonic hair dryer, which introduced an innovative design that maximized airflow and minimized hair damage. Nine years later, it remains the most coveted hair dryer on the market, making it clear that Dyson's beauty tech bet was a huge success. While it’s an impressive product, the standard model also retails for $519 (an increase from its previous $429).
The often-imitated hair dryer has a lot of copycats that dupe Dyson's signature look but skimp on quality. A good rule of thumb: Avoid the $40 Amazon knockoffs that copy Dyson's signature fuchsia and nickel design. I promise they won't perform the same, and you'll be lucky if they last six months. However, in recent years, a handful of competitors have released Dyson Supersonic alternatives that truly offer similar results.

To answer that question, I tested a bunch of hair dryers. Some look similar to the Supersonic, and some look nothing like it. I wanted to find the best alternatives to the Dyson Supersonic that replicate the experience: That is to say, they dry your hair in a way that feels quick, easy, and at least a little luxurious.
My top recommendation as of November 2025? The Laifen Swift. Not only does it look like the real thing, but it utilizes ions to minimize damage and has a powerful 110,000 RPM high-speed motor. Plus, it's affordable, which is why it's held the top spot in this guide for nearly a year.
The Laifen Swift, along with many of the other dupes on this guide, often go on sale during Black Friday, allowing you to get even more bang for your buck (especially with the increased prices of the Supersonic line).
What makes the Dyson Supersonic special?The Supersonic has stood the test of time because with it, Dyson reimagined the hair dryer. Instead of a bulky, loud dryer, the Supersonic is sleek and compact yet more powerful than other dryers on the market (and a little less loud, too).
Dyson is known for this futuristic aesthetic on its products, but the look of this dryer also has a function. The ring-shaped head ditches the vented and coiled model of the traditional hair dryer and houses the tiny V9 motor in the handle. The combination of the V9 motor and the Air Multiplier technology makes for a dryer that clocks in at only 1.8 pounds yet still delivers a powerful airflow that’s notably quieter than the roar of a traditional dryer. That extra strong airflow also makes this dryer less reliant on heat and keeps hair damage to a minimum.
SEE ALSO: All the best Dyson beauty dupes we've testedTo further mitigate any heat damage, the Supersonic also measures the air temperature up to 20 times per second and uses a built-in ionizer to minimize static and give hair a sleek finish, which brings us to a quick ionizer science lesson.
Ionizers are pretty common in higher-end air dryers. Why? They blow negative ions at wet hair to reduce static electricity by sealing the hair cuticle and taking down the power of that positive ionic charge (aka what's causing that annoying frizz). As negative ions make contact with hair, they're also dispersing the positive ions of water, therefore cutting down on your drying time and reducing damage in the process.
SEE ALSO: All the best skincare tech that we tested and loved, and some that we didn’tBasically, it's one of the reasons the Dyson Supersonic provides such quick and excellent results and why hair dryers with ionizers cost more money — they do more than simply dry hair.
Magnetic attachments designed to easily snap onto the blow dryer round out the futuristic feel of the Supersonic. Five are included: a styling concentrator, a flyaway attachment, a diffuser, a gentle air attachment, and a wide-tooth comb. It's a nice array of included nozzles, even for high-end dryers, which might typically include three or four attachments at the most.
Why is the Dyson Supersonic so expensive?At $519, the Supersonic is definitely an investment. However, you're paying for a high-end motor that's built to last, multiple heat settings to protect hair, an innovative design, and of course, the ionic tech. Other dryers from popular hot tool brands like T3, ghd, and Harry Josh boast some similar features and run you anywhere from $150 to $350, but none quite capture the magic of the Supersonic.
SEE ALSO: Honest review of Ruggable: Are the washable rugs worth the price?When I tested the Supersonic, I found that it had a luxe feel that stands out from other hair dryers. But don't forget: the Dyson Supersonic is now almost 10 years old.
Last year, Dyson released the updated Supersonic Nural (which you can find more info on in the FAQ section of this article), but it's not a drastically different product, with the main upgrade coming in the form of smart features, including improved temperature regulation and attachment detection. I tested it for a few weeks and found the upgrades nice, but by no means game-changing, especially for a $549 hair dryer. I also tested it against other smart hair dryers and found that the T3 Aire IQ offered the best intelligent features for the price point (more on that below, too).
Even with the original Supersonic being an older model, there is something to be said about it standing the test of time, and for providing a luxurious (yet efficient) drying experience, especially for folks with thick hair. On the other hand, Dyson competitors have had plenty of time to develop alternatives, all at a fraction of the price.
Recent testing updatesI'm in the process of testing newer hair dryers from Dreame, including the Dreame Miracle Pro.
The newest addition is the Supersonic Nural dupe, the T3 Aire IQ dryer, which I added in April 2025. Prior to that, I added the Dreame Gleam hair dryer, the Dreame Pocket, and the Shark SpeedStyle Pro Flex in November 2024. In the same month, I removed the Shark HyperAIR from my recommendations as it's largely been phased out from store shelves after Shark discontinued it. If you're still especially keen to get it, a version with just one attachment is available at Walmart.
I also replaced the BaBylissPRO with the Dreame Gleam as the best pick under $100 — though the BaByliss is still a solid hair dryer, it felt more like a standard blow dryer than a Supersonic dupe. Plus, it's less widely available these days.
In February 2025, I tested the L'Oréal Airlight Pro, which at $475 costs even more than the original Supersonic and almost as much as the Supersonic Nural. The Airlight Pro looked and functioned very similar to the Zuvi Halo, which makes sense — the hair dryer was developed in partnership with Zuvi. At the time, I didn't include it as it wasn't that different than the Zuvi Halo, and cost significantly more. However, since then, the Zuvi Halo appears to be discontinued — it's been sold out for months on Zuvi's website after a drastic price hike to $634. I reached out to a representative from Zuvi to confirm the discontinuation, but didn't hear back. As I result, I've decided to remove the Zuvi Halo from our list of recommendations, and am reconsidering the inclusion of the Airlight Pro.
Finally, Dreame recently released the Dreame Pocket Ultra, an upgrade to one of our current recommendations, as well as the Dreame Miracle Pro, another Supersonic dupe contender. I'll be testing both for potential inclusion in this guide.

Train Dreams review: Joel Edgerton brings Denis Johnsons novella to life
By no means a fast-paced film but one rich with detail and strong performances, Train Dreams weaves one man's life through a rapidly changing American West in the early 20th century.
Based on Denis Johnson’s 2011 novella of the same name, it's a steady, meditative, and at times devastating journey with many a conversation around the fire. Train Dreams sees Sing Sing collaborators Greg Kwedar and Clint Bentley reunite — this time with Bentley in the director's chair — to explore delicate themes of love and loss amid this fading frontier, sitting on the cusp of industrialisation. It's a slow-going, sombre film at times, an historical essay at others, and it won't be everyone's cup of sarsaparilla.
SEE ALSO: 'Hamnet' review: Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley burn in William Shakespeare tragedyHowever, the true heart of this moving film is a subtle, sensitive performance by Joel Edgerton, one immersed in Bryce Dessner's meticulous score and Adolpho Veloso's lush cinematography, and concluded with the unmistakable spirit of Nick Cave.
What is Train Dreams about? Joel Edgerton and Felicity Jones in "Train Dreams." Credit: Courtesy of NetflixBeginning in 1917 and running through to 1968, Train Dreams follows a man's search for meaning as the 20th century arrives. The Wild West days are over. The American frontier is transforming. And Edgerton leads as devoted family man and stoic railroad worker Robert Grainier, who works for the Spokane International Railway in Idaho. He builds transient bonds with his fellow lumberjacks and pines for home. He's also a man riddled by guilt for his complicity watching the racist murder of Chinese immigrant worker Fu Sheng (Alfred Hsing) during a railroad job, perpetually haunted by the memory. Here, the script diverges from the novella: In the latter, Robert physically helps in hauling the worker to a tall bridge, but in the film, Robert simply doesn't intervene.
Despite this shockingly casual event, the film spends most of its time tracing Robert's life. After a brief courtship with his soon-to-be wife Gladys Olding (Felicity Jones), in the small village of Meadow Creek, Robert builds a simple, idyllic home with her among fields of wildflowers and beside a babbling brook. The pair map out their single-room cabin with river boulders and soon welcome the arrival of their daughter Kate. It's an almost overwhelmingly romantic existence, hammered home in near-saccharine montages and Dessner's tender score, and one Robert yearns for when torn away for months on dangerous railroad-building projects. The job's perils are emphasised in both Johnson's novella and Bentley's film, with injury or death from the felling of colossal trees a common workplace risk for 20th-century lumberjacks. Veloso's POV shots of these ancient giants falling prove the point, and several scenes show how risky this business of pillaging the natural landscape was.
Featured Video For You NYCC Recap, Good Boy's Oscar Plea, and Best Book Adaptations from BFI LFFAt one tragic point, in a devastatingly shot and enacted sequence, Robert's world is upturned forever. He's left desperately searching for meaning in it all, feeling obsolete and expecting "a great revelation to arrive about his life." Edgerton delivers a solemn, raw performance — and with everything that happens, we're not mad that he's surrounded by fluffy stray puppies for a large chunk of the film. Giving Edgerton's character room for deep conversation and reflection, Bentley and Kwedar expand characters from Johnson's book, including Robert's friend Ignatius Jack (a wonderful Nathaniel Arcand), a Kootenai store owner who helps him rebuild, and forest service worker Claire (Kerry Condon), who bonds with Robert down the track.
Train Dreams is a journey of solitude and American history. Joel Edgerton in "Train Dreams." Credit: Courtesy of NetflixThough it's not necessarily a history lesson, Train Dreams subtly meanders through stories of the American West and where these unsung railroad workers fit within it. Through an omniscient narrator (voiced by Will Patton) and conversations between characters, the script pieces together fragments of the past. As in Johnson's novella, mentions of the American Civil War, American Indian Wars, and World War I arise organically. In particular here, William H. Macy is a highlight as Arn Peeples, a harmonica-playing explosives expert and "gadabout of unknown origin" who befriends Robert. As in the novella, Arn's the character most reflective on American history, lamenting his younger peers' disconnection to it.
Like Arn, Patton's narration lends a certain grandfatherly energy, describing locomotive mechanics, the construction of the Robinson Gorge Bridge, and "the cost of progress" in the same tone as he describes Robert's existential crisis. Nonetheless, it gives the film a steadfast emotional consistency. Additionally, his narration gives the film's present an awareness of the future, as we learn what will become of things.

From the handcrafted elements of the Graniers' cabin to the changing technology of the logging sites from rudimentary tools to machinery, Schaller's team craft a detailed picture of life in the American West from early to mid century. But there's one crucial element that pulls all the elements of Train Dreams together.
The simmering engine of Train Dreams is Bryce Dessner's score. Joel Edgerton and Kerry Condon in "Train Dreams." Credit: Courtesy of NetflixAdding to his lauded catalogue of modern film scores from The Revenant to We Live In Time, The National's Bryce Dessner once again flexes his atmospheric composer skills in Train Dreams. At once a whimsical, romantic ode to potential and a hypnotic, reflective accompaniment to loss, Dessner's score drives the emotional engine of Train Dreams. Edgerton's Robert is characteristically stoic and interior in his emotions, allowing Dessner to draw out the brilliant subtleties of his performance. Meanwhile, it's the perfect partner to Veloso's gorgeous shots of Robert engulfed by the Idaho landscape, immersed in the beauty and history of the American wilderness.
Worth staying through the film's end credits for, Dessner teams up with the ever-iconic Nick Cave (no stranger to a lyrical exploration of love and loss) for the haunting original song "Train Dreams." This brooding ballad essentially encapsulates the film's narrative and emotional tone in a few minutes, marking a sublime conclusion to the film.
Train Dreams takes its time, relishing in conversations about grief, loss, feeling obsolete and overwhelmed by both nature and modernity. This slower pace can feel a little engulfing at times, but Edgerton's performance, Dessner's score, and Veloso's balance of handheld and static photography kept me hitched on the ride.
Train Dreams was reviewed out of BFI London Film Festival. The film will hit select U.S. cinemas on Nov. 7 before streaming on Netflix worldwide on Nov. 21.
