As of May 29, Amazon has dropped the price of the LG 27-inch UltraGear OLED gaming monitor to $499.99 — 44% off from its usual $899.99 list price. With this new lowest-ever price (confirmed with price tracker camelcamelcamel), you’re getting a 27-inch OLED panel with QHD 2560x1440 resolution — an affordable halfway point that’s a jump over 1080p but not as intensive as 4K.

As for speed, this particular UltraGear model boasts a 240Hz refresh rate and a 0.03ms gray-to-gray response time, so fast-moving games should feel especially smooth — whether you’re having a few rounds of League of Legends or playing the biggest new single-player cinematic adventures like 007: First Light.

What’s more, LG’s inclusion of NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro cuts out any extra worry, as it reduces stuttering and screen tearing. 

To make visuals even better, OLED gets even better with the added VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification, a 1.5M:1 contrast ratio, and up to 98.5% coverage of the DCI-P3 color gamut, which should give games, movies, and HDR content deeper blacks and more dramatic color than a standard gaming monitor. 

Other useful extras include an anti-glare OLED screen, HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4, USB ports, a virtually borderless design, and a stand with height, tilt, and pivot adjustments. LG also backs the monitor with a two-year UltraGear OLED warranty, including the OLED display panel. 

If you’re after an LG monitor that’s even bigger, the 52-inch UltraGear Evo G9 5K2K is $300 off at Amazon. As for different brands, the 32-inch ASUS ROG OLED gaming monitor is $200 off for a record-low price on Amazon.

TL;DR: Amazon has dropped the Magic: The Gathering Marvel Super Heroes Play Booster Box preorder to $139.55, down from its usual $189.99 price. This is a huge $50.44 discount on a 30-pack booster box ahead of its June 26 release.

Magic: The Gathering expansions don’t usually drop in price shortly before their release date, so if you’re a big Marvel fan, there’s no better time to invest.

As of May 29, Amazon has the Magic: The Gathering Marvel Super Heroes Play Booster Box available to pre-order for $139.55, slicing 27% off its standard $189.99 price. Better still, this listing is shipped and sold by Amazon directly, for delivery on June 29 with the retailer’s preorder price guarantee also included — meaning you’ll pay the lowest Amazon price offered between checkout and release. 

If you want your Play Booster Box even cheaper, there’s a third-party listing by Gaming Universe Corp for $137.88, with delivery between July 1-3. Whichever option you prefer, these make for the lowest prices this particular Play Booster Box has seen with the retailer — as confirmed with price tracker camelcamelcamel.

Both prices keep Amazon highly competitive against other retailers. Walmart currently has the same box listed for $139.45 through third-party seller Hitmen Sports Cards. For the lowest price possible, TCGplayer listings are sitting around $127.50 with shipping included — going even lower than the MTG Marvel Super Heroes Play Booster Box’s market price of $129.08.

Apple's Siri is about to undergo a massive redesign, and Bloomberg has images showing us what that might look like.

The images, shared by Bloomberg on Thursday, aren't leaks; instead, they're unofficial renders and illustrations created by Bloomberg, based on information viewed by folks at the outlet and by people reportedly with knowledge of Apple's plans.

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

First, some context. As we've previously written, Apple is working on an AI-infused version of Siri that will be much smarter (think ChatGPT-style) than before and will come with a standalone app for the first time. None of this is official, but we've seen numerous reports that this is the case, and Apple itself is teasing big Siri-related changes for its upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), which kicks off on June 8.

Now, thanks to Bloomberg's renders, we can get an idea of what this actually might look like. Siri will mostly live inside the iPhone's Dynamic Island, which will expand with a special animation if you invoke Siri with voice or with a long press of the iPhone's power button.

The other way to invoke Siri will be to pull down from the top center of the iPhone's display, which will show a new "Search or Ask" interface. From here, you'll be able to perform various tasks with Siri's help, including launching apps, starting text messages, and adding calendar appointments, but also search the web with AI's help, and ask various questions. You'll get the results as text cards that "pop up" from the Dynamic Island. Swipe down further, and you'll open a conversation with Siri, as you would with any AI chatbot.

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

And it won't be just Siri on offer here; Apple will reportedly let users choose a different chatbot, such as OpenAI's ChatGPT.

This will probably require getting used to, as the Notification Center will now be invoked by pulling down from the top left of the iPhone's screen.

Then there's the new Siri app, which will work similarly to chatbots such as Claude, Gemini, and ChatGPT, with a home screen that hosts a history of conversations and an interface that lets users type queries, use voice commands, and submit attachments. As previously reported, Siri will place greater emphasis on privacy than is typical for these apps, with an option to automatically delete previous chats.

SEE ALSO: Apple's new Siri will have auto-deleting chats, report claims

None of this would be very useful if it were the old Siri, which can only handle very simple queries. The new, revamped Siri will reportedly be able to perform far more complex tasks, including writing emails and creating text notes on various topics. Siri will also be integrated into the iPhone's Camera app, replacing the Visual Intelligence features. We've previously written about other improvements that are reportedly coming to the iPhone's Camera app.

All of this should be announced in less than two weeks at this year's WWDC opening keynote. And most of it should become available in iOS 27, which will likely launch in September, alongside new iPhones.

When I turned my old laptop into a makeshift NAS earlier this year, the idea was simple: turn it into a Plex media server by plugging in a few USB drives loaded with movies and shows.

Ahead of Computex 2026, Acer has announced a new Windows laptop called the Swift Air 14. Its name evokes Apple's mid-tier PC, the MacBook Air, but its price positions it as a strong alternative to the budget MacBook Neo: It will start at just $699.

Like the Neo, the Swift Air 14 will have an all-metal build and come in some fun color options, including sage green, frost blue, blossom pink, and lilac purple. It will be just as thin as the Neo and only slightly heavier.

The Swift Air 14 will run on Intel's new Core Series 3 chips (previously code-named "Wildcat Lake"), the entry-level counterparts to its flagship Core Ultra Series 3 chips ("Panther Lake"). In the coming months, they'll pop up in a lot of new cheap laptops, giving the class-leading MacBook Neo more direct competition.

The Swift Air 14 will start with a Core 5 processor, 8GB of memory, and 512GB SSD, matching the RAM and storage of the Neo's $699 configuration. Its 14-inch 1200p display won't be as sharp as the Neo's, but it will have a smoother 120Hz refresh rate.

The Acer Swift Air 14 weighs 2.76 pounds, making it just a hair heavier than Apple's MacBook Neo (2.7 pounds). Credit: Acer

It's rated at up to 19 hours of battery life, which would make it longer-lasting than the Neo. Acer said it charges fast, hitting 50 percent battery after 30 minutes plugged in.

The rest of the Swift Air 14's spec sheet includes a 1080p webcam with a physical privacy shutter, quad speakers with DTS X:Ultra 3D spatial audio, and older wireless tech (WiFi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3). It has two USB-C ports on the left side of its base, plus a USB-A port and headphone jack on the right.

The Swift will be available in North America starting this August. As far as I can tell, it's the first Wildcat Lake laptop announced for U.S. buyers. A couple other models debuted in China earlier this month.

Some smart home devices are expensive and can only do a single job. Other devices can cost less than the price of a smart bulb, and yet you can use them in multiple different ways. One of the most useful smart home devices I own is a cheap smart button.

If you ever wished you could make a buck while getting off, Joi AI (an AI companion platform) is here to make that dream a reality. Apparently, the startup is actively looking for 10 "masturbation consultants" to test its latest feature: Daily Guided Masturbation.

The "consultants" would be responsible for documenting how regular masturbation affects their stress, sleep quality, mood, and confidence levels for four weeks. To apply, you have to be 18 or older and based in the US or the UK. Oh, and the pay is $2,000 (so far, it sounds pretty good, right?).

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. Let's call it R&D

In an article published by Decrypt, Joi AI head of brand and communication Julie Levin says the new feature uses mood-matched AI voice sessions to guide users through the experience.

"The role involves testing and giving feedback on the mood-matched AI voice-guided sessions, and providing feedback on the overall user experience," says Levin. Basically, you complete the guided sessions and submit written questionnaires directly to the team.

The application process is pretty simple

The application is a simple Google Form (apparently it was a Typeform, but applicants reportedly "broke the link." It asks for your name, age, location, email, phone number, gender identity, and whether you can commit to a full four weeks. Other questions include when you'd most likely be doing the work (e.g., morning, evening, or at varying times) and whether you've done anything like this before.

The final three questions ask why you'd like to be a consultant, what you hope to learn about yourself, and whether or not you'd be open to being interviewed or quoted if your story is "interesting." They also give you an option to add additional info, which is nice.

"I've been training for this my whole life." - Same, buddy. Same.

The original job posting said candidates should be "articulate, observant, and impossible to blush” and be able to describe sensations “better than a sommelier describes a wine.” (I mean, it's a solid job posting.)

"The role is real, and we've had great responses since the posting went live," Levin told Decrypt.

According to a recent X post, Joi has received over 103,284 applications so far. The application closes May 31, so if you want to join the thousands of others, you'd better hurry! The company's also been posting its favorite cover letter openings, which included phrases like "this is my calling" and "I've been training for this my whole life."

Despite the total dumpster fire of ending The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Paramount+ managed to have a solid month of May on the streaming side of things. Dutton Ranch, the latest Yellowstone spinoff, debuted as the biggest original series launch in the platform's history with a reported 12.9 million viewers in the first week. Selfishly, the inclusion of Battlestar Galactica on the platform early in the month was the biggest coup, as far as I'm concerned, and I've been enjoying a rewatch immensely.
