Get this DEWALT 20V MAX Cordless Drill Combo Kit at 44% off during Big Deal Days
Quality combo tool kits, like DeWalt's Cordless Drill and Impact Driver, are perfect for home DIY jobs or professional builds and will never go out of style. They make hard jobs easier and are durable enough to last for years without needing replacement.
Your Windows 11 PC is always using half its RAM, and that's a good thing
When I open up Task Manager and I see that 60% of my 32GB of RAM is in use and I have 10GB cached even though I'm not doing anything, my first instinct is to start ending tasks and services to "free up RAM." My intuition—built in the XP and Vista era—tells me that it is a sign of a problem.
Skip Ryobi and Craftsman, this affordable power tool brand offers better prices and 5-year warranties
If you've been buying Ryobi or Craftsman because they seemed like the safe, practical choice, the warranty math might not be working in your favor anymore. Both brands offer a 3-year limited warranty on their cordless lineups, and neither makes it easy to get a replacement when something goes wrong. However, there is still Hercules, which acts a lot like Craftsman used to.
Amazon Prime Video is streaming the Emmy Awards for free, breaking its own rule
You won't have to sit in the living room to watch TV shows receiving their annual honors. Amazon and the Television Academy have signed a six-year agreement to make Prime Video the exclusive, free streaming home for the Emmy Awards.
Hard drive partitions used to solve 4 big problems that don't exist anymore
Partitioning your storage drive from one large volume into multiple smaller ones seems like an unnecessary step on modern PCs that can often create more problems than it solves. But back when hard drives were the mainstream storage medium, partitions were surprisingly common — you'd be hard-pressed to find a Windows PC that didn't have multiple partitions.
Get a big-screen experience with an AWOL Vision projector during Fall Prime Day
Nothing beats the big-screen experience. For over a century, films have been a major part of our lives. Movies give us entertainment, art, commentary, and inspiration. But how those movies look and sound matters. So, good equipment is essential. If you’re going for the theater experience, you’ll need a high-quality screen and, more importantly, a powerful projector that won't let you down.
Fresh starts for healthier routines: Waterdrop filters for Prime Big Deal Days
As the weather cools, most households quietly change how they use water at home. Iced drinks give way to hot coffee and tea, slow cookers and soup pots come back into rotation, and kitchens start filling up ahead of Thanksgiving. All of that runs through the same tap, which is why autumn is a reasonable time to think about what is actually coming out of it before the year's busiest cooking season arrives.
Someone turned their phone into a working external GPU
You don't have to buy a pricey video card enclosure to add external graphics to your PC — the phone in your pocket might do. Reddit user StayLameBro has found a way to use his iPhone 17 Pro Max as an external GPU that assists his MacBook Pro M4.
I ditched multiple Excel worksheets for one dynamic report and saved myself a ton of work
It's easy to end up with multiple versions of the same Excel report. You might need one for each region, department, or product, so you copy the report and change the data it shows. I've done this plenty of times, and for a while, I didn't see much of a problem.
The best headphones and earbuds deals on October Prime Day — my favorite Bose headphones are on sale
Just like that, fall is here and so is the holiday shopping season — well, almost.
We're kicking things off with Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days, otherwise known as October Prime Day. The sitewide sale runs from Oct. 6 to 7, and deals on headphones are popping off.
SEE ALSO: Amazon announces dates for Prime Big Deal Days, its 48-hour 'October Prime Day' saleStandouts include the first-ever price cut on the new Bose QuietComfort headphones (some of the best I've tested this year) and a $65 price cut on the Technics EAH-AZ100, our favorite premium earbuds for sound quality. Other deals have had some fluctuation in the lead-up — the AirPods Pro dropped to $199 only to go up to $234, and now they're down to $179 — but we'll be keeping this list updated.
Below, check out the best headphones and earbuds deals live on October Prime Day, according to someone who tests them.
Deals marked with a ✅ are Mashable editor favorites and award winners. Deals marked with a strikethrough are no longer available.

The basic AirPods just got an upgrade with the new AirPods 5, and last year's Apple AirPods Pro 3 are back on sale. They were $234 in the lead-up to October Prime Day, but have since dropped to $179 — $70 off their $249 list price. The earbuds have ANC, a more comfortable, redesigned fit, and support for live translation with a compatible iPhone. They're a good pick for commuters and even measure your heart rate during workouts, which is great for athletes who love a good workout playlist.

The 25+ best October Prime Day tech deals, hand-picked by our gadget-obsessed experts
Mashable's discerning reporters and editors are constantly testing the latest gadgets, from e-readers to headphones, laptops, phones, power stations, smart rings, and portable speakers. This year, many of our favorite products have been hit with price hikes due to the ongoing memory crisis. Fortunately, Amazon has brought tech shoppers some relief with Prime Big Deal Days, better known as October Prime Day.
Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days is officially live, running Oct. 6 to 7. We've been covering this fall shopping event since its 2022 debut, and this year, we’re tracking all the top tech savings as they drop. From deep discounts on noise-canceling headphones to major price drops on SSDs and memory cards, here are the absolute best tech deals worth your money right now.
SEE ALSO: Try Amazon Prime for free for 30 days to get access to October Prime Day 2026Amazon is offering steep discounts on top devices from brands like Apple, TCL, Garmin, Beats, and Sony. After spending hours poring over these live savings, we've identified the best Prime Day deals that are so good, we'd buy them ourselves.
How do we pick these deals? We look for products we recommend at record-low prices (or close to them). We use price-tracking tools like camelcamelcamel to see if Amazon's discounts are actually better than usual, then cross-check them with other retailers' listings to make sure they're not cheaper elsewhere. (Walmart and Target are both gearing up to host their own October sales, FYI.) You can add our picks to your cart with confidence. And if we expect prices to drop lower in the days ahead, we'll be sure to tell you that.
So, without any further ado, these are the best October Prime Day tech deals we've spotted so far.
$79 AirPods (a Prime Day classic)It wouldn't be an Amazon Prime event without some heavily discounted AirPods. But, ironically, before the sale officially begins, you can also grab these earbuds for $79 at Walmart. That could change come Oct. 6, as Amazon may be holding back some inventory for Prime Big Deal Days.
Apple's fourth-generation earbuds have excellent audio quality, a comfortable fit, and a five-hour battery life. The newer AirPods 5 sound even better and add ANC, but this pair is still a great option for iOS users on a budget. (Read Mashable's review.)
Note: The AirPods 4 dipped down to $69 last Black Friday, but $79 is their lowest price so far in 2026. Plus, they probably won't be in stock much longer now that their successors have launched.

Amazon surprised us all with big price hikes across all Kindles, then dropped a collection of new Kindle models and accessories, including a page-turner. But if you're cool with a non-Paperwhite model, the 2024 Kindle is on sale for $103.99 for a nice 31% discount. Bundle it with three months of Kindle Unlimited for free.

We've been waiting for good deals on Apple MacBooks, and Amazon has finally delivered, with both the MacBook Air and Pro on sale.
If you're a professional creative, developer, or AI enthusiast who needs a compact new laptop for work, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better option than the 14-inch, M5 Max-powered MacBook Pro. The "base" configuration with 36GB of RAM and 2TB of storage got a $500 price increase back in June, which bumped it from $3,599 to $4,099. But right now, Amazon has it on sale for just $3,499 — a $600 savings.
If you don't need the powerful MacBook Pro's features or the price tag, you can go with the M5 MacBook Air while it's on sale for $1,099, or $200 off the normal price. Not only is it highly portable, but it also uses the M5 chip, and it stays in a moderate lane without going wild with features not everyone needs. It's a great buy for students or professionals.

Anker is the go-to charging brand for many tech nerds (including us), and the brand dropped some big discounts for Prime Day. You can grab the cute little Nano USB-C wall charger for under $30, and it even matches the new burgundy iPhone 18 Pro. The new Anker MagGo 2 Pro Power Bank just got its first-ever discount, and it offers 25W wireless charging.

$109.99 Save $22 Get Deal Cheaper-than-ever Fire tablets
Two of Amazon's own Fire tablets are already on sale for record-low prices ahead of Prime Big Deal Days. Take your pick from the compact Fire HD 8 with 64GB of storage — our favorite Fire tablet overall — or the big-screened Fire HD 10 with 32GB of storage, nicer cameras, and a sharper display. (Both have 13-hour battery lives.) They're now up to 53% off for Prime members.

$154.99 Save $82.00 Prime membership required. Get Deal Get 46% off a 4K streaming stick
Amazon's Fire tablets have been safe from price hikes so far, but the retailer raised the prices of all its Fire TV streaming sticks by at least $5 in August. The 4K Plus model went from $49.99 to $69.99. Nevertheless, Amazon will sell it to you for just $37.99 right now. (You can also try the coupon code STREAM4K, as we've seen it work at times this week.)
FWIW, this is Amazon's cheapest media player with support for Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, Nvidia Geforce Now, and Alexa Home Theater (a surround sound feature that works with Echo devices).

Dropping to the lowest we've seen at Amazon, the Apple Watch SE 3 is down to $199. In Mashable's review of the best smartwatches, the Apple Watch SE 3 takes the cake as the best model for most people. The SE was the first Apple Watch to include an always-on display, and we're always thrilled to look down and see the stunning OLED display. Plus, the S10 chip is the same as the Ultra 3, which costs nearly $800 at full price.
Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple Watch SE 3 (GPS, 40mm) $199 at Amazon$249 Save $50 Get Deal A huge discount on a huge QLED TV
The 65-inch TCL QM8L is the best QLED TV for most people, according to Leah Stodart, our former TV expert. She praised its "superb peak brightness, detailed picture quality, and fantastic glare handling." (QLED TVs in general "are ideal for people whose TV usage happens mostly in the daytime, especially watching sports," to quote her TV specs guide.)
The 85-inch QM8L is down to $2,297.99 for Prime Big Deal Days — which is an even deeper discount than the $2,497.99 price point we were hoping to see. If you've been holding out for a massive TV deal, now is the time to pull the trigger.

The best Prime Day tech deals always include savings on Amazon's own devices, like the affordable 40-inch Ember Fire TV. This TV has a high-definition HDR10+ display and doubles as an Alexa smart speaker for your home. The 28% discount drops the price to a very affordable $179.99, its lowest-ever price.
And if you're looking for a cheap TV with a little bit more oomph, the 50-inch QLED Ember Fire TV is currently $100 off.
40-inch Ember Fire TV $179.99 at Amazon$249.99 Save $70 See It at Amazon Save $10 when you preorder the 'Ocarina of Time' remake
Nintendo's upcoming remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for the Switch 2 will be one of the year's biggest gaming releases (after GTA 6, obviously). Preordering the physical edition will normally cost you $69.99 — it's $10 more than the digital version — but Amazon has it on sale for $59.88 ahead of its Nov. 5 launch. The first print run has special packaging with foil cover art, so don't dawdle.

Our tech editor reviewed this classic DJI vlogging camera when it first came out. At the time, we called it the perfect camera for social creators, and we were right. Since then, this camera has become a very common sight at tech events, conferences, and anywhere else streamers and creators get together.
The new DJI Osmo Pocket 4 can be hard to find in the United States, but the previous-gen version is hardly out of date. This gimbal camera shoots gorgeous 4K vertical and horizontal video, and uses the built-in gimbal for tracking and motion stabilization.

This has not been a good year to buy a new phone, thanks to rising prices, so if your battery is holding on for dear life, just slip this power bank into your purse or backpack and avoid low-battery anxiety. It charges your phone via an included USB-C cable at a speedy 45W.

Apple released a new generation of AirTag trackers this year, the AirTag 2. The popular Apple tracker is already at an all-time low price, and we don't expect it to get any cheaper in the days ahead. You can also grab the 4-pack on sale for $89, though we're hoping that price drops to $79.99 soon.

This little gadget always goes on sale during Amazon sales, and so we're hardly surprised that it's one of the retailer's Prime Day deals for October 2026. You can add this smart plug to your cart for just $12.98, a nearly 50% discount. If you're trying to spend every last penny of an Amazon gift card, go ahead and add it to your shopping cart.

The global memory crisis has led to rising costs for smartphones, laptops, and gaming consoles, but it's been a disaster for SD cards and hard drives. So, while the discounts aren't as huge as they were in past years, you can find savings on these memory products during October Prime Big Deal Days. We've found a bunch of Prime Day deals on portable SSDs and hard drives, and we expect even more savings to come.
Case in point: The SanDisk Nintendo Switch 2 microSD Card Express is down by $70. Likewise, you can score $90 in savings on the popular 1TB SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD, which is even cheaper now that October Prime Day has begun.

As of this writing, you can once again save $100 on the latest iPad Air, which is powered by the powerful M4 chip, is razor thin, and won a Mashable Choice award (read our full review if you're on the fence) earlier this year.
If you want to upgrade to the M5 chip and a breathtaking OLED display, then you can also save $100 on the iPad Pro. The HDR display is incredibly bright, even in direct sunlight, and it has enough processing power to handle video editing software and 4K video files.

Samsung's S95H OLED TV is our tech editor's dream TV, but it's impractically expensive, even when it's on sale. Fortunately, the brand's S90H OLED TV is also a phenomenal TV, and it just dropped to its lowest price ever, making this one of the best Prime Day TV deals of the sale so far (honestly, it's one of the best Prime Day deals, period).
It's definitely an investment, but if you're a gamer or cinephile, then this is a future-proofed TV with a stunning, glare-free display, a speedy AI processor, and a sleek design.

We're big fans of DJI cameras and drones at Mashable. Unfortunately, they've become a lot harder to find in the United States thanks to the ongoing drone ban and the company's troubles with the FTC. However, Amazon has delivered with some big Prime Day deals on DJI drones. So, if you're looking to take your videos airborne, you can grab the entry-level DJI Mini 3 4K camera drone for under $300.
Note: This product is only available through third-party sellers at Amazon, which we normally try to avoid.

Samsung's One UI 9 is finally rolling out in the US, but only for some Galaxy owners [UPDATE: Older phones included]
Samsung is rolling out its One UI 9 update in earnest, if later than expected. The custom take on Android 17 is starting to reach Galaxy S26 devices in the U.S. roughly a week after the launch was supposed to start.
8 streaming services got more expensive in 2026, and Netflix isn't even the worst offender
Streaming was supposed to be a cheaper alternative to cable television. Unfortunately, that ship has sailed. Streaming has now become a necessity for major media companies. Between new originals, licensed content, live broadcasts, and sporting events, many streaming services have significantly expanded their content offerings. More movies and shows lead to bigger spending, which, ultimately, has resulted in higher subscription prices.
The best October Prime Day kitchen deals: We found live Ninja and Keurig deals worth grabbing
Cooking at home is supposed to save money, but between grocery prices and the cost of decent appliances, it doesn't always feel that way.
Amazon's October Prime Day, officially Prime Big Deal Days, runs for 48 hours from today — Oct. 6–7 — so if you need a new air fryer, want to upgrade your morning coffee station, or just need to replace a worn-out pan without spending a fortune, now's your moment.
The best deals include the Ninja Foodi 10-Quart DualZone Air Fryer at $149.99, $100 off the Ninja French Door Premier Air Fry Oven, $120 off the KitchenAid Artisan Stand Mixer, and $300 off the De’Longhi Rivelia Automatic Espresso Machine. Prices can move fast during Prime Day, so we’ll keep checking and adding new deals as they go live.
Best kitchen deal Ninja Foodi Air Fryer (10-Quart) $149.99 at Amazon$229.99 Save $80 Get Deal at Amazon Why we like it
At $149.99 (down from $229.99), the Ninja Foodi 10-Quart DualZone is just 99 cents above its all-time low.
Instead of cooking in batches or relying on your oven, it gives you two separate 5-quart baskets that run at different temperatures at the same time. The Smart Finish setting automatically syncs the timers so both baskets finish cooking at the exact same time, while Match Cook lets you duplicate settings across both sides for full 10-quart meals. It also includes six standard functions — air fry, broil, roast, bake, dehydrate, and keep warm — and has enough total capacity to handle about eight pounds of wings.

BLK launches Events feature to bring Black singles together IRL
Following Tinder's launch of an IRL Events feature this summer, another Match Group-owned app, BLK, is doing the same.
BLK, a dating app for Black singles with more than 13 million downloads, is introducing Events in 29 American cities today after testing in Atlanta this summer.
SEE ALSO: The 10 best hookup apps of 2026: I swiped until my thumb hurt"Black singles have always met through community," Corinne Harris, director of brand marketing at Match Group, stated in a press release shared with Mashable. "What our community keeps telling us is that they want to meet people in person; they just don't always know where to go. Events answers that. It takes the pressure off and puts the focus on being in the room with people who understand you."
Mashable has also reported time and again that daters long to meet potential connections in person rather than on their phones, but they're unsure how to do so. Dating apps are now attempting to bridge that gap themselves. In addition to Tinder Events, Bumble has hosted events in various cities this summer, and Hinge has its One More Hour initiative to encourage community events. (Hinge is also owned by Match Group.)
On BLK, 60 percent of singles surveyed last year said they prefer meeting someone in shared spaces. But a recent survey found that nearly seven in 10 feel lonely, and six in 10 don't know where to go to meet people.
Now, BLK users in major areas like Atlanta, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C, and Miami will be able to use Events. They can find a nearby event, reserve a spot, invite friends, add it to their calendar, and connect with others going before, during, and after the event. Like Tinder's Events feature, BLK users will also be able to match with other attendees.
Since the Atlanta test began on Aug. 7, 65 percent of eligible active users engaged with the tab, according to BLK, signaling an interest in venturing offline...but using the app to help.
Hollywoods tech movie boom has arrived
The people selling us the future are having a bit of an image problem right now: AI companies are promising to transform work while workers worry about losing their jobs. Social platforms have become fixtures of daily life even as questions about their influence on people and politics persist. And the founders behind them are increasingly part of the controversy themselves. Which makes this a pretty interesting moment for Hollywood to put them on a much bigger screen, don't you think?
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.This fall and winter, Hollywood is turning its cameras on four of tech's most consequential and controversial founders: Meta's Mark Zuckerberg, Tesla and SpaceX's Elon Musk, OpenAI's Sam Altman, and Theranos' Elizabeth Holmes. Their stories are wildly different, spanning social media, electric cars and rockets, artificial intelligence, and convicted fraud. But the films have a common question at their center: What happens when someone promises to change the world, and millions of people, investors, and institutions decide to believe them?
The founders are getting their close-up. The audience is already skeptical.When The Social Network first arrived in 2010, Facebook’s beginnings supplied plenty of drama. But writer-director Aaron Sorkin’s The Social Reckoning, opening Oct. 9, has a different perspective than his movie from over a decade ago. As he put it: "'The Social Network' was about the invention of Facebook. 'Social Reckoning' is about what it’s become and, in particular, Facebook’s role in the rise of extremism and divisiveness."
In the film, Jeremy Strong takes on Zuckerberg, with Mikey Madison playing Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen and Jeremy Allen White as Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz, and is set to follow the disclosures behind the newspaper’s "Facebook Files" investigation, tracing what Facebook actually knew about the harms of its platforms, and what happened when that information became public.
But since 2021, the allegations about harm to young users have hardly faded. In August 2026, Meta agreed to a settlement worth up to $17.1 billion with a coalition of attorneys general over claims that it knowingly built addictive features that harmed children and teens. The agreement, subject to court approval, also requires new restrictions on minors’ use of Facebook and Instagram.
That is part of the history audiences bring to the movie theater. As Meta’s platforms have become woven into how we talk, get news, and spend our time, scandal after scandal has given users reasons to question the company’s influence. Concerns about social media’s power are widespread: A 2024 Pew Research Center survey found that 78 percent of Americans believed social media companies had too much power and influence in politics, up from 72 percent in 2020.
The pushback goes beyond what’s on our feeds. People across the country, on both sides of the political aisle, have been resisting the technologies becoming part of their everyday lives.

It might be loading or has been removed.Whether they’re fighting data centers going up in their communities, protesting or vandalizing Flock Safety cameras, or dubbing Meta’s smart glasses "pervert glasses" online, people aren’t simply buying into the future tech companies are selling anymore.
AI has its own skeptics. A June 2026 survey found that 52 percent of Americans were more concerned than excited about its growing use in daily life. The distrusted tech now has its own movie as well, adding to this slate. Artificial, director Luca Guadagnino’s drama about Sam Altman’s 2023 firing and return to OpenAI, is set to take audiences inside the fight over who gets to run one of the companies shaping that technology. Andrew Garfield plays Altman and said making the film actually left him questioning his own use of AI.
"I got off my ChatGPT immediately," Garfield told Jimmy Kimmel Live! in September, explaining that learning more had made him realize "we’re careening into some very unknown territory."
"They’re not an evil person, they've got blinkers on."It’s easy to see why these stories draw us in. There’s money, competition, and the conviction that you’re building something important enough to change everyone’s lives. A founder may see that ambition as heroic, though for the people living with the consequences, it can look very different. Ron’s Gone Wrong co-writer Peter Baynham told WIRED in 2023 that the film’s contrasting tech executives reflected how these figures can see themselves as the good guys.
"They think they’re on a heroic mission to make the world a better place," he said. "They’re not an evil person, they’ve got blinkers on."
To me, that's a more interesting character to watch than someone who simply wants to do harm — someone so convinced they’re helping that they stop questioning what their version of progress costs everyone else.
No one better epitomizes that ideal than Elizabeth Holmes. If you watched The Dropout, you know what I mean. Holmes promised to revolutionize blood testing through her startup, Theranos, and went to extraordinary lengths to sell investors on technology that could not do what she claimed. That deception led to her conviction for defrauding investors.
Now she’s the subject of You Can See Everything, a documentary opening Oct. 16 from directors Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim. It follows Holmes in the 34 days before she reported to prison for
+her TK-year sentence, with the equally uncomfortable-to-watch Fielder — whose Nathan for You and The Rehearsal turn awkwardness into must-watch television — joining her at home. If you’ve seen his work, you can imagine why that pairing is hard to resist.
SEE ALSO: Does 'You Can See Everything' live up to the hype?Holmes won’t be the only tech figure appearing as herself this fall. Audiences will also get a closer look at Elon Musk in filmmaker Alex Gibney's documentary, Musk. Musk's influence stretches from the cars people drive to the posts they see on X and the politics shaping their lives.
The film will explore his business empire and political influence, opening in New York and Los Angeles on Oct. 9 before expanding nationally. For viewers used to encountering Musk through his posts and the headlines they generate, the film offers a chance to spend more time with the story behind them.
Now, just because all these movies are arriving at the same time doesn’t necessarily mean change will follow. But they can bring scrutiny beyond the usual audience for tech news. Someone who uses ChatGPT, Facebook, Instagram, or X every day may know relatively little about the people and decisions behind those products. But what film is very good at is giving audiences a reason to look more closely at topics they may — or may not — be familiar with.
For now, I'm looking forward to seeing whether Andrew Garfield really nails Sam Altman's (in)famous walk.
The Samsung 85-Inch QN70F Smart TV is at its absolute best price for October Prime Day — save over $500
SAVE $558: As of Oct. 6, the Samsung 85-Inch Class Neo QLED QN70F 4K Mini LED Smart TV (2025 Model) is on sale for $1,139.99 at Amazon. That’s a 33% discount for Prime Big Deal Days and marks its lowest price ever.
Opens in a new window Credit: Samsung Samsung 85-Inch QN70F 4K Mini LED Smart TV $1,139.99 at Amazon$1,697.99 Save $558 Get Deal
Prime Day discounts are officially live, and Samsung’s massive 85-inch QN70F Neo QLED just hit a huge price milestone. It dropped to $1,139.99 — down 33% from its standard $1,697.99 price tag. Getting a display this size for just over a grand is a rare buy, marking its absolute lowest price since launch. If you want a home-theater setup without spending thousands, this is easily one of the best value picks on the board.
The real draw of this model comes down to its Mini LED panel. Instead of using a few oversized backlights that spill light across the screen, Samsung uses thousands of tiny LEDs grouped into tightly controlled dimming zones. That level of precision keeps deep blacks looking dark and uniform during shadowy movie scenes rather than turning into a murky gray, while bright highlights still pack a heavy punch.
SEE ALSO: The best October Prime Day TV deals, according to our experts: Save $1,200 on OLED TVsProcessing is handled by an onboard chip that runs 20 separate neural networks to upscale whatever you are watching. Standard 1080p cable feeds, older YouTube videos, and compressed streams get cleaned up with sharper lines and better contrast in real time, making them look remarkably close to native 4K. An automated HDR remastering feature also injects extra color pop into non-HDR content, so everyday viewing looks noticeably richer.
Fast motion is another area where this display excels, thanks to a native 144Hz refresh rate and full Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) support. Live sports stay crisp without blurry artifacts, and high-frame-rate console or PC gaming runs completely tear-free.

The 100+ best October Prime Day deals: We found record prices on Apple, Bose, Lego, and Sony favorites
Another Amazon Prime Day is here. Prime Big Deal Days (aka "October Prime Day") runs Oct. 6 and 7, and deals are officially live, delivering major sales across all categories.
October Prime Day deals could be a chance to get some relief from the RAMageddon price hikes impacting the tech industry this year. For its part, Amazon increased the prices of nearly two dozen Kindles, Fire TV Sticks, Echo smart speakers, and eero routers this summer because of rising component costs. Seasonal sales like Prime Big Deal Days (and later Black Friday) could offset some of those markups.

For October Prime Day, we spotted the first deal on the second-generation Bose QuietComfort headphones. Mashable's audio expert Bethany Allard says that the Bose QuietComfort (2nd gen) are the best combination of comfort, noise cancellation, sound quality, and value in headphones right now. Currently, they're $319, down from $359 — a $40 saving that makes them an even better value.
However, we also have to call out a fantastic deal on the first-gen Bose QuietComfort headphones, which are currently 53% off for Prime Big Deal Days. As much as we love the new 2nd Gen model, that price is hard to beat.

"Yeti coolers are the gold standard of outdoor coolers for a reason: They're strong enough to stand up to a grizzly bear (yes, they're actually bear-tested) and can hold ice for days on end. I've personally tested Yeti coolers, temperature gun in hand, to verify they perform as advertised, and I haven't been disappointed yet.
"These coolers only go on sale during big shopping events like Prime Day and Black Friday, and only in select colorways. This year, you can grab this cool limited edition colorway for 25 percent off its usual price." Timothy Werth, Mashable Tech Editor

"One of the major benefits of a portable power station is the ability to recharge using solar power. The EcoFlow Delta 3 Classic bundle with a 220W solar panel is a great choice for October Prime Day. You'll get the 1,024Wh portable power station with a 1,800W output that can power even big appliances like fridges. It has X-Boost providing up to 2,600W for higher-power devices.
"With full sun, EcoFlow says the Delta 3 Classic can recharge in about six hours with the 220W solar panel. Of course, you can also recharge using standard wall power or a generator. When plugged into a wall outlet, the EcoFlow can reach 80 percent capacity in just 45 minutes." — Lois Mackenzie, Mashable Contributor
