Im a Garmin watch loyalist — these are my favorite Prime Day deals

Thu, 07/10/2025 - 09:04
The best Prime Day Garmin watch deals at a glance: BEST OVERALL Garmin vívoactive 5 $190 (save $109.99) Get Deal BEST FOR ATHLETES Garmin fēnix 7 Pro (47mm) $499.99 (save $400) Get Deal BEST BUDGET DEAL Garmin Venu Sq 2 $149.99 (save $100) Get Deal

As a loyal Garmin watch user for five years now, I have nothing but wonderful things to say about the brand. I personally don't see why anyone would choose an Apple Watch, which you have to charge every day, over a Garmin smartwatch, which will last you well over a week on a charge. To each their own, of course. If you're not totally sold on the fruit company's flagship watch, allow me to point you towards some Garmin smartwatches that will wow you. They're not cheap, but on Prime Day, you can save over $100 on many models.

Whether you're a runner, a triathlete, or just dabbling in the health and wellness sector, there's a Garmin device for you. Below, we've highlighted the best Prime Day Garmin watch deals you can shop at Amazon, as well as Best Buy.

Note: Deals marked with a 🔥 have dropped to a new all-time low price

While we haven't tested the vívoactive 5 model, we did spend some time with its predecessor and gave it a nearly perfect rating. "The vívoactive 4 is an excellent smartwatch for active people wanting to be more in tune with their bodies, and for less active individuals who have the desire but need a little nudging to stick to their goals," our reviewer sums up. The fifth rendition of the watch upgraded the AMOLED display, enhances sleep and stress coaching, improves the heart rate sensor, and includes even more sports apps.

There's now a sixth-generation model in town, making the vívoactive 5 even more affordable. It's typically a pretty reasonable $299.99, but it's on sale for just $190 for Prime Day. That's only $1 away from its best-ever price from Black Friday.

While the fēnix 8 is the latest in the lineup, the Garmin fēnix 7 Pro is a whole lot more affordable. Regularly $899.99 for the 47mm Pro Sapphire Solar edition, it can be yours for just $499.99 on Prime Day. That's 44% in savings and a new record low.

The fēnix 7 Pro is a multisport watch built for training and adventure. It can last for up to 22 days on a charge, thanks to the addition of solar charging. Like most Garmin watches, it packs tons of health and wellness features, but it adds training features like hill score, endurance score, pacing modes, race predictor, morning reports, training readiness, advanced navigation, preloaded maps, and more performance-focused data. There's even a built-in flashlight for those who like to train at night.

The Daily Show skewers Elon Musk over Groks antisemitic MechaHitler tirade

Thu, 07/10/2025 - 09:04

The Daily Show's Ronny Chieng has taken aim at Elon Musk and his AI chatbot Grok after it labelled itself "MechaHitler" and went on an antisemitic tirade earlier this week.

"AI: it's an awesome tool that will soon solve all of humanity's problems with absolutely no downsides," quipped Chieng.

Grok's antisemitic X posts came shortly after it was updated to "assume subjective viewpoints sourced from the media are biased" and "not shy away from making claims which are politically incorrect." Musk announced the changes by saying Grok had been significantly improved. The chatbot's developer xAI has since stated that it's working to remove Grok's "inappropriate" posts.

"Was there really nothing between 'woke' and 'MechaHitler'?" Chieng said. "I didn't even know robots could get this racist. Like, how does AI even know what Jews are? It doesn't even know what traffic lights are."

Check out our full review of the Apple Watch Series 10.

Ready to take the plunge and get a new Apple Watch? This is your best bet during Prime Day. The Apple Watch Series 10 is well worth investing in, especially at a 30% discount. At $120 off, this is a better deal than average, especially considering it's Mashable's top pick for a smartwatch fitness tracker.

We like the Series 10 thanks to its suite of health tracking capabilities, including a heart rate monitor, sleep tracker, menstrual cycle tracker, and pedometer (the blood oxygen sensor is the main feature that's missing). It also has an ultra bright and lightweight display.

But one way you can lighten the load is to just start with a gaming laptop, which packs in everything you need to get started in PC gaming without all the extra pieces. Of course, gaming laptops can be expensive, too, but plenty of budget options also exist.

Too Much review: Lena Dunham gifts us TVs newest disaster couple

Thu, 07/10/2025 - 09:00

Lena Dunham is an expert at crafting messy TV romances. Take your pick from Girls, with options including (but not limited to) Hannah and Adam, Marnie and Charlie, or Jessa and Adam.

Each pairing prompted its fair share of misgivings or straight-up red flags, to the point that I spent most of my time watching Girls praying for the show's couples to break up instead of hoping they'd stay together. In many ways, that was the point of the series: to show all the mistakes — relationships included — that go into figuring yourself out throughout your 20s.

In Netflix's Too Much, Dunham's first major TV project since Girls, she once again delivers a messy love story, this time between Jessica (Megan Stalter, Hacks), an American woman recovering from a brutal breakup, and Felix (Will Sharpe, The White Lotus), the London boy she falls for after traveling to England. (The series is loosely based on Dunham's own experience of moving to London and meeting her husband, musician Luis Felber, with whom she co-created the series.)

SEE ALSO: 'Too Much' trailer: Lena Dunham and Megan Stalter team up for a London rom-com

This time, though, Dunham's romantic leads are in their mid-30s, reaching a point where their immature chaos clashes with external pressures to settle down. These pressures, coupled with Dunham and Felber's personal ties to Jessica and Felix, make Too Much more of a conventional rom-com than Girls, one where the show actively wants you to root for them as opposed to hoping they split.

That doesn't mean Too Much is a rosy romance. Far from it! Jessica and Felix are nothing short of a disaster couple, much in the vein of Girls' Hannah and Adam. You'll likely toggle between thinking they're great for each other, or that they need to sprint far, far away from one another. But instead of letting her two leads cut and run, Dunham sticks with them throughout the season, emphasizing the work it takes to keep a relationship going, even if it seems like it's going off the rails. Does it always work? Not quite, especially when it comes to Too Much's fairy-tale ending. Yet the journey is as flawed and chaotic and absorbing as the show's central couple (not to mention Dunham's own public persona).

Too Much does quite a bit to separate itself from Girls, from its London location to its focus on one core romance, as opposed to a friend group. But hints of it remain, especially in the dynamic between Jessica and Felix, which echoes that of Hannah and Adam.

Like Hannah, Jessica is an often-unaware oversharer, talking at a mile a minute about UTIs and her sex life to anyone within earshot. The role is a perfect showcase for Stalter, who has proven herself to be the reigning queen of cringe comedy, thanks to projects like Hacks and Cora Bora. However, Too Much also gives her an opportunity to tap into more grounded dramatic work, especially when it comes to Jessica's grief over the end of her eight-year relationship with her ex, Zev (Michael Zegen). He's moved on to peppy influencer Wendy Jones (Emily Ratajkowski), the seemingly perfect avatar to whom Jessica addresses private video diaries whenever she needs to work through a particularly hard time.

SEE ALSO: The best Netflix TV shows of 2025 (so far)

When Jessica moves to London for work, leaving New York and all its memories of Zev behind, Jessica crosses paths with indie musician Felix in a pub loo. Like Girls' Adam, Felix fits into the "brooding artist" archetype but comes with his fair share of idiosyncrasies. (He finds voicemails "sort of violent," and he's obsessed with Paddington.) He's often distant, with his fair share of intimacy issues, but he shows up for Jessica in times of need. In turn, Jessica idealizes him and her relationship with him, seeing him as the lead in one of those English-set romance films she so enjoys. Of course, he's anything but. However, Sharpe perfectly toes the line between charming and troubled, to the point that viewers understand Jessica's fascination with him while also wondering, "Is this a good idea?"

Too Much makes you root for Jessica and Felix — while also wanting them to take a step back. Will Sharpe and Megan Stalter in "Too Much." Credit: Netflix

That question of "Is this a good idea?" haunts quite a bit of Too Much. After all, Jessica is in a fragile state, processing a devastating breakup and all alone in a brand-new city. Meanwhile, Felix is similarly fragile, as he's struggling financially and attempting to get sober. Will the chaos and codependency of their new relationship help either of them sort their lives out, or will it make their already-precarious emotional states worse?

The answer, it turns out, is a little of Column A and a little of Column B. As Jessica and Felix's relationship moves from a fling to something deeper, there are screaming matches, accusations of love bombing, and questions of fidelity. There are red flags and relapses and judgment from everyone looking on, be it friends and family, coworkers, or even the audience.

But in the middle of it all, there are moments of sweetness. For every time Jessica lashes out at Felix over his crowded romantic past, there's a time when she holds him close and listens to his trauma without judgment. For every instance of Felix ditching Jessica to go out or play a gig, there's a moment when he returns to her, bringing her a much-needed cup of tea or her adorably ugly dog, Astrid — gestures Zev rarely afforded Jessica when they were together.

Too Much relishes the messiness of these contradictions, suggesting that these two broken-down, hurt individuals are exactly what the other needs for support. They just need to be ready to work hard for it, because there's a lot of ground to cover between a meet-cute and a happily-ever-after.

Your mileage may vary on just how well Too Much treads that ground, especially since there are times when it seems like neither Jessica nor Felix truly want to put in any work, or when the series gets lost in a variety of side characters' thinly sketched relationship woes. But through it all, Dunham, Stalter, and Sharpe stir up sparks during even the most awkward or cringeworthy moments of Jessica and Felix's relationship. (And given that it's a Dunham project, there are many such moments.) In the end, this cross-continental pairing often teeters on the edge of disaster, but Too Much finds joy in their messy journey of trying to pull back from the brink.

Too Much is now streaming on Netflix.

Bricks twisty ending, explained

Thu, 07/10/2025 - 09:00

You can't beat a good claustrophobic sci-fi about a group of characters trapped in a strange place, and on this front Netflix's Brick delivers.

Taking a bizarre metallic wall as its starting point, writer/director Philip Koch's mystery is filled with twists, turns, and an intriguing ending that's worth a bit of further discussion.

So what exactly happens at the end of Brick, and what does it all mean? We've broken it down below.

SEE ALSO: The best Netflix movies of 2025 now streaming What's Brick about?

The premise is simple and compelling: A struggling couple, Tim (Matthias Schweighöfer) and Liv (Ruby O. Fee), wake one morning to discover that their apartment has been completely encased in a black wall. They can't leave through the front door or the windows, their water isn't working, and they no longer have phone signal. The pair's only choice is to drill through into the apartment next door, and then ultimately start burrowing down to the basement, in the hope of finding a way out.

On their journey through the apartment building, Tim and Liv meet various neighbours in the same predicament. One of these is conspiracy theorist Yuri (Murathan Muslu), who's staying in the apartment of his recently deceased friend Anton (Josef Berousek) — a programmer who works for local defence company, Epsilon Nanodefense, and whose pacemaker appears to have given out at some point after the wall came down. Epsilon Nanodense was ravaged by a fire the night before the wall appeared, and Anton believed the two events were connected.

After discovering that the recently refurbished apartment block has been kitted out with hidden ceiling cameras, the characters discover that Anton had managed to figure out a way to open the black wall before he died — and that it was actually Yuri who killed him, because he believes the wall has been put in place to protect them from outside contamination.

Yuri is the only character that doesn't want to leave. Credit: Sasha Ostrov / Netflix What happens at the end of Brick?

The characters die one by one in a variety of creative ways, until finally it's just Tim and Liv left. Tim, with his own coding knowledge, is able to recreate the app Anton built to open the wall, figuring out that the wall responds to a specific sequence of light flashes. Using hidden camera footage of Anton they work out the sequence of these flashes and open a section of wall in the basement, overpowering Yuri when he reappears to try and stop them from leaving the building.

Escaping to the surface, Tim and Liv are greeted by a disturbing sight — every single nearby building is encased with the same black wall that was trapping them. The streets are deserted. As Tim and Liv climb into their van and start driving, a news broadcast comes over the radio.

"...state of emergency in Hamburg," read the announcers. "It has now been confirmed that the fire at Epsilon Nanodefense triggered a serious malfunction that activated a secret defense system. It remains unclear whether the fire was natural or an act of sabotage. People who have been able to reach safety are strongly advised to stay together."

In the final shot above the city we see that every building in the area is encased in the same wall, while emergency helicopters and planes fly overhead.

What was the deal with the hidden cameras?

The cameras were essentially a red herring that proved useful to the plot. They were installed by the creepy owner of the apartment block, Mr Friedman (Alexander Beyer), who also had a hidden room in his own apartment that he could use to monitor his tenants.

Although the characters initially think the cameras are connected to the wall, it turns out that they're completely unrelated.

Is the outside world contaminated?

Contaminated? No. Unsafe? Possibly. The ending of Brick makes the origin of the wall pretty clear, but the cause of the fire at Epsilon Nanodense that leads to the wall spiralling out of control is still a little murky.

The key line in that radio broadcast is, "It remains unclear whether was the fire was natural or an act of sabotage."

Turning a wall meant for defensive purposes into a weapon would be a pretty effective means of attack, so it does seem possible that the fire could be manmade. But we won't know for sure unless Brick gets a sequel.

Brick is streaming now on Netflix.

My favorite robot vacuums are on sale for Prime Day: Save on Roomba, Shark, and Roborock

Thu, 07/10/2025 - 08:58

Prime Day is nearly as good a time to buy a robot vacuum on sale as Black Friday. For new robot vacuums that debuted at CES 2025, it's the first big sale event of the year — most of them were far too fresh to go on sale for Amazon's Big Spring Sale in March.

Case in point: All three of Roborock's flagship Saros robot vacuums got their first-ever discount for Prime Day, and almost all of the new Roombas that just came out a few months ago have been on sale for a week. I guess Amazon and iRobot are still on good terms despite their acquisition falling through.

The top Prime Day robot vacuum deals: Budget pick Roborock Q7 M5+ robot vacuum and mop $279.99 (save $150) Get Deal Best mop washing station deal Roborock Saros 10R $1,279.99 (save $320) Get Deal Editor's Pick eufy Robot Vacuum 3-in-1 E20 Stick and Handheld Vacuum Combo $349.99 (Save $300) Get Deal Mid-range hybrid Shark Robot Vacuum & Mop Combo $699.99 (Save $500) Get Deal Roomba Pick iRobot Roomba Plus 504 Vac Robot Vacuum with AutoEmpty Dock $379.99 (Save $370) Get Deal SEE ALSO: Roborock Saros Z70 review: If you think you need the robot vacuum with an arm, no you don't

These deals aren't guaranteed to last through the end of Prime Day on July 11; however, and we've already seen popular Roombas go out of stock. It's also pretty unlikely that discounts on these major models will drop further into the sale. The wisest move would be to compare your top robot vacuum options quickly and make a move before the sale price disappears.

Regardless of your budget, there's definitely a robot vacuum on sale during Prime Day 2025. I'm tracking all of the best robot vacuum deals at Amazon below, noting when they self-empty, mop, or wash and dry their own mopping pads. All robot vacuums in the list have smart mapping. Note: Deals with a 🔥 next to them have dropped to record-low prices.

$429.99 Save $150 Get Deal Why we like it

This budget Roborock model was also just released this year, but it's been living in the shadow of the big bad Saros trio. Nevertheless, it deserves a spotlight for the value that it packs, especially now that it's under $300 ahead of Prime Day. The most impressive feat of the Roborock Q7 M5+ is its 10,000 Pa of suction power — that's far stronger than the norm for cheap robot vacuums. That matches the power of my favorite robot vacuum from 2024, the Roborock Qrevo Master, and is the baseline number I'd recommend for keeping up with substantial pet hair.

Note that the Q7 M5+ does mop and does self-empty, but doesn't wash and dry its own mopping pad like the more premium Roborocks.

$1,599.99 Save $320 Get Deal Why we like it

It happened. My favorite robot vacuum of 2025 so far went on sale for the first time, and it's not some measly discount, either. Now less than $1,300, the Roborock Saros 10R is technically cheaper than the similar Saros 10 — though I still chose the 10R over 10 in my comparison because the 10R is a beast at corner mopping. With suction power reaching 20,000 Pa, the Saros 10R is also one of the most powerful robot vacuums on the market.

When a cleaning session is finished, the Saros 10R empties its own dust bin and washes its own mopping pads while charging on the dock. It's well-rounded self-sufficiency that allows for true hands-off cleaning whenever a mess pops up. Pet parents will also appreciate the addition of the livestream pet camera, which gives a live view of whatever the vacuum sees as it cleans. The vacuum can even specifically search for the pet, giving you a heads-up about its current hangout spot in the app.

Best Prime Day Roomba deal iRobot Roomba 104 Combo Robot Vacuum and Mop $249.99 at Amazon
$449.99 Save $200 Get Deal Why we like it

Normally, without any Prime Day discounts, it's tough to get a mopping robot vacuum for less than $300. The iRobot Roomba 104 is far from the only mopping robot vacuum that's steeply discounted right now, of course, but it's well-regarded and a top seller on Amazon. For $249.99 during this sale, you get a robot vacuum that offers up to 75 days of hands-free cleaning, automatic carpet detection so it doesn't get your rugs wet while mopping, and customizable cleaning settings.

My favorite tablet deals on Prime Day — score the iPad Mini for its record-low price

Amazon is coming in hot this year with the longest Prime Day run ever. What was once a simple one-day event will now span four days, from July 8 to 11. And the tablet deals are going strong on day two.

Right now, there are some all-time low prices on iPad minis and iPad Airs, as well as Android tablets and Amazon Fire tablets. More deals are expected to drop each day as the sale continues, but we don't recommend waiting too long. There's a good chance some could sell out.

Here are all the best Prime Day tablet deals that you can shop right now.

Note: Deals marked with a 🔥 have dropped to a new all-time low price, while struck-through deals were sold out or expired at the time of writing.

Check out Mashable's full review of the Apple iPad mini (7th generation).

The seventh-generation iPad Mini features a handful of welcome (although predictable) upgrades. It packs an A17 Pro chip, more starting storage at 128GB, a boost in RAM, and Apple Intelligence compatibility. "If you're new to the iPad, and you want the most compact one around (or any compact tablet), the new iPad mini 7 is the best choice," Mashable reviewer Stan Schroeder writes. He adds that it's not the most exciting upgrade, but it's great for streaming, reading, and casual scrolling. For Prime Day, you can grab the base model for only $379 instead of $499 — that's its best price ever.

Streaming just got way cheaper: Snap up Prime Day streaming deals from Paramount+, Apple TV+, and more

Thu, 07/10/2025 - 08:56
The best Prime Day streaming deals at a glance: BEST OVERALL Paramount+ Premium (with Showtime) $0.99/month for 2 months (save $24) Get Deal BEST PRIME VIDEO ADD-ON DEAL Starz (Prime Video add-on) $0.99/month for 2 months (save $20) Get Deal RUNNER-UP PRIME VIDEO ADD-ON DEAL Apple TV+ (Prime Video add-on) $4.99/month for 2 months (save $10) Get Deal BEST DIGITAL MOVIE DEAL 'Warfare' $12.99 (save $7) Get Deal

Prime Day isn't just a good time to score a TV or laptop at a steep discount anymore. In 2025, it's also a good time to load up your devices with streaming services and digital movies.

For the first time in Prime Day history, streaming deals are aplenty, so long as you're a Prime member. (Not yet a member? Sign up here.) One of the perks of subscribing to Prime is having access to Prime Video, Amazon's own streaming service. And since Prime Day is a celebration for members, the mega retailer is offering streaming deals in the form of Prime Video add-ons and digital movie discounts. There's certainly a chance more streaming services will toss their hats in the ring to compete with Prime Video, but we're not expecting Black Friday-level streaming deals or anything.

Still, we're pretty impressed by the sheer number of streaming discounts available this Prime Day. Below, we've rounded up all the best options, and we'll continue adding to this list if any new streaming deals pop up. Keep in mind that most of these deals will fizzle out once Prime Day ends on July 11. Be sure to secure the streamer of your choice before then.

Best Prime Day streaming deal Opens in a new window Credit: Paramount+ Paramount+ Premium $0.99/month for 2 months (save $12/month) Get Deal Why we like it

New and returning subscribers can get their first two months of Paramount+ Premium — that's the ad-free tier with Showtime — for just 99 cents per month. Typically $12.99 per month, that saves you $24 total. Even better, you can score the deal on its own through Paramount+ or as a Prime video add-on. For what it's worth, the streamer typically offers a $2.99 per month deal for six months during Black Friday. While the Prime Day discount is only valid for a third of the time, it'll cost you $2 less per month, making this a pretty epic deal.

The Premium tier gives viewers an ad-free experience (except with live TV), access to the entire Showtime library, the ability to stream CBS live and download movies and shows for offline viewing, and 4K, UHD, Dolby Vision, and HDR10 quality. The discount is only valid through July 13, so be sure to sign up ASAP. Also, remember that the cost per month will go back to full price ($12.99/month) after your two-month promotional period, unless you cancel.

Make note that many Lego sets may seem like a good deal, but they've actually been sitting at the same "deal" price for five months or more. For example, this Lego Creator 3-in-1 Flowers in Watering Can set looks appealing at 20% off, but according to price-tracking site Camelcamelcamel, it's been chilling at $23.99 since last spring. On that note, we've only chosen Lego sets that are newly discounted — so you can be sure you're actually getting a good deal.

We're keeping a running list of the best Prime Day Lego deals below, and we'll update it with any new deals as they pop up.

While it's not down to its lowest price ever, the Lego Ideas Vincent van Gogh "The Starry Night" building set is one of those Lego sets that rarely gets discounted. We're hoping to see the price drop even further, but at over $20 off, it's already a pretty solid deal for what you get: a 2,316-piece building set that constructs a 3D Lego wall art homage to one of the most beloved paintings. The set is a collaboration with the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) and really captures Van Gogh's colors and brushstrokes through creative building techniques. When you finish building, you'll have a gorgeous piece of art for your home — all for just under $150.

Physical page turning holds a special, untouchable place in our hearts, but physical copies of books are not cheap. For Prime Day, however, Amazon is giving shoppers the ability to pick up three books for the price of two. That means you can finally add to your physical TBR list without breaking the bank. It also helps, of course, that most of the books are already discounted as well. There are tons of bestsellers, new releases, and BookTok favorites included in the sale, including Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins, Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir, and The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid. Just add three books to your cart from the promo page and the deal will automatically be applied at checkout.

2025 has already been a huge year for video games.

Amazon Fire Tablets start at $54 for Prime Day

It's a known fact that Amazon loves to discount its own devices during its Prime events. As such, it's no surprise that some of the best tablet deals of Prime Day 2025 are going to Amazon's Fire line. On the second day of the sale (live through Friday, July 11), we're seeing discounts of up to 56% off Fire tablets for the whole family, with prices starting at just $54.99. In fact, all but one model have fallen to record-low prices. Not too shabby, indeed.

SEE ALSO: Prime Day 2025: Live updates on the top deals

Below, Mashable's team of shopping experts has compiled a list of the best Prime Day Fire tablet deals that Amazon's mustered up. (You'll see any all-time lows marked with a 🔥.) Remember: These deep discounts are only for Team Prime, though trial members are eligible.

Best Fire tablet deal Amazon Fire HD 10 (32GB) 🔥 $69.99 at Amazon
$139.99 Save $70.00 Get Deal Why we like it

Read Mashable's full review of the Amazon Fire HD 10.

The 10-inch Fire HD 10 is a Mashable Choice Award winner, earning high praise from our reviewer for its lightweight build, sharp display, "surprisingly decent" sound quality, long battery life, and 5MP selfie camera. It's "probably is a good purchase for most people on the market for an entertainment tablet," she wrote. That's especially true at its Prime Day price of just $69.99, which is half off its $139.99 MSRP — an unprecedented deal that beats its previous record low by $5.

If you need more storage — the base model comes with 32GB — the 64GB Fire HD 10 is on sale for $79.99 this week (normally $179.99). At 56% off, it has the biggest Prime Day discount out of all the Fire tablets.

The 5 top laptop deals from Prime Day: $849 MacBook Air, $919 Surface Laptop 7, and more

Thu, 07/10/2025 - 08:51
The best Prime Day laptop deals at a glance: Best MacBook deal Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M4, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD) $849 (save $150) Get Deal Best Windows laptop deal Microsoft Surface Laptop 7, 13.8-inch (Snapdragon X Elite, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $918.99 (save $481 with Prime) Get Deal Best 2-in-1 laptop deal Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro 360 (Intel Core Ultra 7 256V, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $1,249.99 (save $350 with Prime) Get Deal Best gaming laptop deal Asus ROG Strix G16 (Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX, Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD) $2,399.99 (save $500 with Prime) Get Deal Best Chromebook deal Acer Chromebook Plus 515 (Intel Core i3-1305U, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD) $329.99 (save $100 with Prime) Get Deal

The battle of the best Prime Day laptop deals seemed like M4 MacBook Air's game to lose. In the lead-up to its annual members-only sale this week, Amazon had Apple's latest 13-incher marked down to only $849 (in all colorways, too). That's $150 off the M4 MacBook Air's already modest MSRP of $999, which is a hefty discount for a popular laptop that only just came out in March.

I thought it would be tough for Amazon to one-up that deal once Prime Day formally started, but I'm happy to say it's proven me wrong. On the second day of the sale (now live through July 11), I'm seeing a slew of Windows laptops discounted to record-low prices there. That includes our beloved Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 and four different gaming laptops with Nvidia GeForce RTX 50 series graphic cards, which were my Prime Day white whales. I really didn't expect Amazon to put any on sale, much less at such steep discounts.

SEE ALSO: Prime Day 2025: Live updates on the top deals

As Mashable's resident laptop guru (and someone who's been covering Prime Day since 2019), I want to share a few quick reminders to help you make smart shopping decisions when you're making a purchase as big as a new computer. One is to avoid third-party sellers on Amazon, which may have their own customer service policies or dabble in sketchy selling practices. The other is to cross-check prices with other retailers to verify Amazon's deals — it occasionally lists incorrect MSRPs — and to make sure you're getting the best price possible. For what it's worth, Best Buy is Amazon's biggest rival when it comes to laptop deals. It's currently running a Black Friday in July sale alongside Prime Day through July 13.

Below, I've rounded up the best Prime Day laptop deals I've found so far on Amazon. I'll be refreshing my picks throughout the week whenever Amazon rolls out more offers, so check back soon. Note: Deals marked with a 🔥 have dropped to an all-time low price, while struck-through deals were sold out or expired at the time of writing.

Best MacBook deal Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M4, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD) $849 at Amazon
$999 Save $150 Get Deal Why we like it

Read Mashable's full review of the 13-inch Apple MacBook Air (M4).

The new 13-inch MacBook Air is our top budget pick for Apple users and a Mashable Choice Award winner. "It's powerful, silent, and comes with a couple of much-needed upgrades," including an upgraded 12MP webcam and support for two external displays, wrote senior editor Stan Schroeder. He gave it an overall rating of 4.5/5.

Amazon's $849 deal applies to all colors of the base configuration with 16GB of RAM and 256GB of SSD storage. The Sky Blue variant briefly dipped down to an even-cheaper $829 in late June, but I have no trouble endorsing it at its current price: It's such a good deal on a popular new laptop that's already pretty affordable.

Read Mashable's full review of the 13.8-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop 7.

Microsoft's 13.8-inch flagship PC is our favorite Windows laptop, combining a slick, sophisticated design with peppy performance and an all-day battery life. (Literally: It lasted nearly 23 hours in our testing.) This variant has a high-end Snapdragon X Elite processor, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage — our ideal baseline specs for most everyday users.

Prime members can snag the Platinum colorway on sale for just $918.99, which is 34% off its $1,399.99 MSRP and a new all-time low by a couple bucks. For comparison's sake, Amazon's deal is $181 cheaper than competing discounts at the Microsoft Store and Best Buy (where it's currently sold out).

With thousands of deals to trawl through, we've done the hard yards for you and tracked down the best deals on everything tech. You can also check out Amazon's Prime Day page and have a scroll yourself.

You will need to be an Amazon Prime member to partake in the fun. If this isn't you, fear not! You can grab a no-obligation 30-day free Prime trial and still get in on the action.

Happy hunting!

What is Amazon Prime Day? Is it different in Australia?

Prime Day is an annual online sales event, like Black Friday or Click Frenzy, but exclusive to Amazon Prime customers. It started as a one-day event in the US in 2015, but has since expanded to a five-day event that takes place across the globe, including Australia.

The first Prime Day Down Under happened in 2018, and has grown every year since. Australia is unique in that it gets one of the longest Prime "Days" in the world – this year's event goes for a whopping five days, and because of our time zone, for us it’s 5 and a half. This is because Australian users get access to deals on both Amazon.com.au and the Amazon Global Store until the conclusion of the event in the US.

Additionally, the Shop Local Businesses store highlights a number of small Australian businesses that are also partaking in the Prime Day fun.

What will be on sale this Prime Day?

While it can be difficult to predict specific products that go on sale, Amazon has promised over 100,000 deals in Australia from big brands, small local brands, and everything in-between. The brands that Amazon has confirmed will be a part of Prime Day include Apple, Samsung, Lenovo, Bose, and more – a pretty hefty list!

Expect deals across all categories, including tech, such as TVs, Smart Home, Headphones, Gaming, as well as homeware, sports, fashion, beauty and more.

How to find the best deals during Prime Day in Australia

Amazon is often the cheapest place to find a particular product in Australia, but the really good deals can sometimes be a bit elusive. Of course, our list above features some of the very best tech deals available during Prime Day. However, you can also properly prepare for the event to make sure you truly get the most out of it.

Before Prime Day kicks off, you should put together a shopping list of items that you are after, then 'wishlist' those products on Amazon and set deal alerts on the Amazon app. This will ensure you don't miss top deals on products that you especially want.

Ensure you are subscribed to Amazon Prime, or else you won't be able to secure the products for the Prime Day deal price. A subscription costs A$6.99 per month, but there is a 30-day free trial available if you are just looking to take part in Prime Day and nothing else.

It is also worth spending a bit of time on Amazon and familiarising yourself with its interface and how it works. This can save you time and hassle when the deals start dropping (many of which are only available for a limited time).

How to shop on Amazon Prime Day

Of course, we'll be keeping track of all the best Prime Day deals we spot in the lists above. But if you are keen to trawl through some deals yourself, here's how to best shop during the event.

  • Amazon app: If you'll be out and about on Prime Day, download Amazon's mobile app, log in, and you'll be ready to shop wherever you are.

  • Amazon Wishlist: Add items to your wishlist in the product interface to get alerted if it goes on sale.

  • Ask Alexa: Why move at all? The main idea behind Amazon's Echo devices is to sell you stuff, so Alexa is more than willing to help you add things to your cart.

  • Amazon Global Store: Check out the best deals from the US and across the world on the Amazon Global Store.

  • Support Local: Amazon's Shop Local Business initiative highlights deals curated from small Aussie businesses across Amazon.

Hurdle hints and answers for July 10, 2025

Thu, 07/10/2025 - 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.

My favorite Prime Day deals on headphones and earbuds — record-low prices on AirPods

Between all of our testers and reviewers at Mashable, we've put in a lot of time testing the best headphones and earbuds. From noise-cancelling to budget options to earbuds designed specifically for sleep, we want to recommend the best of the best.

So naturally, when sales like Amazon's Prime Day roll around, we closely track deals on all the models we've tested and loved (and those that are in our testing pipeline). And this year, Amazon has gone all-out in the audio category, and we've been shocked by how low prices are on wireless earbuds in particular. We're talking Apple AirPods for $89. Noise-cancelling Echo Buds for $44.99. And the first-ever discount on Sony's new flagship headphones.

SEE ALSO: 100+ deals are live on Prime Day — get record-low prices on Apple, Ninja, and Samsung

This is your chance to score record-low prices on AirPods, Beats, Anker Soundcore, Bose, and Samsung audio products. There are even some impressive deals on open earbuds if that's your cup of tea. We've rounded up all the best Prime Day deals on headphones and earbuds, so you don't have to do the digging yourself. Stay tuned for updates throughout the four-day event.

Note: Deals with a 🔥 next to them have dropped to record-low prices.

The new Sony XM6 headphones were just released on May 15, but they're already on sale for around $20 off, putting them at $428 at Amazon. Now, I'll be the first to admit that a $20 price drop doesn't exactly put these flagship cans in the bargain price range. But since this Prime Day deal is the first-ever discount on XM6 headphones, I had to share the news. These flagship noise-cancellers have been reviewed by two Mashable staffers, who both declared the sound best-in-class and worth the investment.

The AirPods Pro go on sale year-round more regularly than you'd think, but not $100 off. At $149, these earbuds are at their record-low price. There is some risk of them selling out. In other words, we suggest grabbing them ASAP; 40% off is an excellent price point for our favorite pair of AirPods.

Plus, other retailers are getting in on the savings. Walmart, Target, Best Buy, The Home Depot, and even TikTok Shop are running overlapping sales that last even longer than Prime Day. But the key thing about Prime Day, as the name implies, is that you have to be a Prime member to enjoy the savings. If you want to get in on the deals, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial, and if you're aged 18 to 24, you can get six months of Amazon Prime for free.

We've rounded up a massive running list of all the best Prime Day deals to shop on the second day of the event. Check back here often, as we're updating this guide constantly throughout the sale. Note: Struck-through deals were sold out or expired at the time of writing.

Read Mashable's full review of the M4 Apple MacBook Air.

"The new 13-inch MacBook Air is our top budget pick for Apple users and a Mashable Choice Award winner. 'It's powerful, silent, and comes with a couple of much-needed upgrades,' including an upgraded 12MP webcam and support for two external displays, wrote Senior Editor Stan Schroeder. He gave it an overall rating of 4.5/5.

Amazon's $849 Prime Day deal applies to all colors of the base configuration with 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. The Sky Blue variant briefly dipped down to an even-cheaper $829 in late June, but I have no trouble endorsing it at its current price: It's such a good deal on a popular new laptop that's already pretty affordable." — Haley Henschel, Senior Shopping Reporter

Read Mashable's full review of the 13.8-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop 7.

"Microsoft's 13.8-inch flagship PC is our favorite Windows laptop, combining a slick, sophisticated design with peppy performance and an all-day battery life. (Literally: It lasted nearly 23 hours in our testing.) This variant has a high-end Snapdragon X Elite processor, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage — our ideal baseline specs for most everyday users.

Prime members can snag the Platinum colorway on sale for just $918.99, which is 34% off its $1,399.99 MSRP and a new all-time low by a couple bucks. For comparison's sake, Amazon's deal is $181 cheaper than competing discounts at the Microsoft Store and Best Buy (where it's currently sold out)." — Haley Henschel, Senior Shopping Reporter

"As much as we love the affordable iPad Mini, it's really hard to argue with a $279 iPad. And so we're not even going to try. While the base model iPad is missing the latest Apple silicon (the M series chips), do you really want your tablet to feel like a laptop? Then you might be tempted to get some work done instead of playing The Sims." — Timothy Beck Werth, Tech Editor

"If you're looking for the best possible deal on a Kindle e-reader, then you're looking for the base model, which gets a rare price drop for Prime Day. Kindles typically only go on sale during big events like Prime Day and Black Friday, so this is a rare chance to get a new Kindle for under $100. In her review, Shopping Reporter Samantha Mangino said this is the 'best e-reader on a budget,' and that's doubly true when it's on sale." — Timothy Beck Werth, Tech Editor

$139.99 Save $95 Get Deal Why we like it

"This deal's a Prime member exclusive, but it's a good one: the Amazon Echo Buds with ANC are all the way down to $44.99, making them an excellent price for a pair of noise-cancelling earbuds. Admittedly, this drastic of a price drop isn't exactly rare: Just last month, these earbuds received an $85 discount.

These earbuds are a 2021 release, so you won't be getting the latest and greatest tech. Their battery life is just okay at five hours per charge, and their ANC isn't going to be anything mind-blowing. But if you're looking for something that's good enough and at a price that's hard to beat, you'll find it in this deal." — Bethany Allard, Lead Shopping Reporter

$499.99 Save $200 Get Deal Why we like it

"The cheapest 65-inch QLED TV we're clocking at Amazon this Prime Day isn't an Amazon TV. It is still a Fire TV, but oddly enough, it's from Insignia — a Best Buy brand.

If you have trouble picturing the difference between an LED and QLED TV in your head, this is your chance to try an XL QLED out at home without severely overspending. The Insignia QF series has been garnering quite positive customer reviews on picture quality and color vibrancy. At this price, it's probably not going to have the same pop as some of the premium QLEDs out there, but you'll definitely notice the quantum dot difference compared to your old TV, especially during daytime viewing." — Leah Stodart, Senior Shopping Reporter

Read Mashable's full review of the Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones.

"The new Sony XM6 headphones were just released on May 15, but they're already on sale for around $20 off, putting them at $428 at Amazon. Now, I'll be the first to admit that a $20 price drop doesn't exactly put these flagship cans in the bargain price range. But since this Prime Day deal is the first-ever discount on XM6 headphones, I had to share the news. These flagship noise-cancellers have been reviewed by two Mashable staffers, who both declared the sound best-in-class and worth the investment." — Bethany Allard, Lead Shopping Reporter

$1,119.99 Save $300 Get Deal Why we like it

"The 512GB Galaxy S25+, which launched earlier this year, has hit a new record-low price this Prime Day. While it's not quite as powerful as the S25 Ultra or the latest S25 Edge, it's also a lot easier on your wallet. You'll still get the impressive Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and 12GB of RAM, plus a slightly larger and nicer display than the basic S25 (6.7-inch QHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with new 'ProScaler' technology), as well as a bigger 4,900mAh battery. Mashable's Chance Townsend calls the S25+ the 'sweet spot for battery life and versatility' amongst the S25 lineup. It doesn't look too much different than the S24+, but it'll definitely wow you in terms of internal upgrades — and that's saying something, considering how brilliant the S24 lineup already was." — Christina Buff, Mashable Contributor

That saves you $14.49 off its usual $29.99, for 48% off. The Samsung Galaxy SmartTag2, is compatible with Android 11 or later systems. It's both water- and dust-resistant so that it can withstand the unexpected. It can be detected by nearby devices via Samsung’s SmartThings Find network. You can even make it ring, check its location history, and customize it to perform other, simple tasks." — Samantha Mangino, Shopping Reporter

"Do you look forward to summer for the outdoors? If you're eager to get outside on hikes and be more active than ever this year, then a fitness tracker will help you track ever step. Right now, the Garmin vívoactive 5 is the best fitness tracker deal we've spotted this year. With built-in GPS and 11 days of battery life, it's great for those constantly on the go. Plus, this Prime Day, it's 37% off. It's down to $190 from its normal $299.99 to save $109.99 — that's $1 away from its all-time low." — Samantha Mangino, Shopping Reporter

$429.99 Save $180 Get Deal Why we like it

"This budget Roborock model was also just released this year, but it's been living in the shadow of the big bad Saros trio. Nevertheless, it deserves a spotlight for the value that it packs, especially now that it's under $300 for Prime members this of Prime Day. The most impressive feat of the Roborock Q7 M5+ is its 10,000 Pa of suction power — that's far stronger than the norm for cheap robot vacuums. That matches the power of my favorite robot vacuum from 2024, the Roborock Qrevo Master, and is the baseline number I'd recommend for keeping up with substantial pet hair.

"Note that the Q7 M5+ does mop and does self-empty, but doesn't wash and dry its own mopping pad like the more premium Roborocks." — Leah Stodart, Senior Shopping Reporter

"You've probably already seen it on TikTok: The Ninja Crispi is a compact air fryer with a glass baskets (plus lids) that make meal prep a cinch. Mashable's Samantha Mangino tried it in her own kitchen and deemed it the best air fryer in the Ninja lineup. 'It delivered food that was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside,' she wrote. It's on sale for $159.95 this Prime Day, down 11% from its $179.99 MSRP. We've seen that discount on Amazon before, but not with its Prime Day offer of a bonus $7.96 credit. That'll get delivered to your Amazon account 30 days after the air fryer ships.

Best Buy, Target, and Ninja's website all have the Crispi on sale for $159.99, but they don't throw in any extra freebies." — Haley Henschel, Senior Shopping Reporter

"Snag the Dreo Tower Fan (DR-HTF007) for just $67.99, down from $79.99. I know a $12 savings might not sound like a huge number, but honestly, it's already pretty reasonably priced compared to a lot of similar models, and you're getting a ton of bang for your buck here.

This 36-inch tower fan features four different modes and speeds that you can easily adjust from the top panel or with the handy included remote. Plus, it oscillates a full 90 degrees to really get that cool air circulating throughout your room (reaching up to 25 feet per second, according to Dreo). It even has a timer function, so you don't have to worry about forgetting to turn it off. And for those light sleepers out there, it's designed to operate super quietly (at just 28 dB), making it a solid choice for bedrooms." — Tabitha Britt, Mashable contributor

It's more than just word creation, though — land your highest-scoring letters on special double- and triple-point tiles and see who can rack up the most points. It's meant for two to four players.

"New and returning subscribers can get their first two months of Paramount+ Premium — that's the ad-free tier with Showtime — for just 99 cents per month. Typically $12.99 per month, that saves you $24 total. Even better, you can score the deal on its own through Paramount+ or as a Prime Video add-on. For what it's worth, the streamer typically offers a $2.99 per month deal for six months during Black Friday. While the Prime Day discount is only valid for a third of the time, it'll cost you $2 less per month, making this a pretty epic deal.

The Premium tier gives viewers an ad-free experience (except with live TV), access to the entire Showtime library, the ability to stream CBS live and download movies and shows for offline viewing, and 4K, UHD, Dolby Vision, and HDR10 quality. The discount is only valid through July 13, so be sure to sign up ASAP. Also, remember that the cost per month will go back to full price ($12.99 per month) after your two-month promotional period unless you cancel." — Christina Buff, Mashable contributor

Read Mashable's full review of the Shark CryoGlow LED Red Face Mask.

"Trying to choose between investing in a red light mask or nice hair tool this Prime Day? Simply get both: This Amazon bundle gets you the Shark CryoGlow red light mask and Shark FlexFusion hair styler together for $499.99 — essentially $249.99 each — when they both typically cost $349.99. Then, prepare for your self-care routine to be completely transformed. The Shark FlexFusion is the rare styler that works on either wet or dry hair, and comes with several drying, curling, and frizz-fighting attachments.

I'm most excited about this ultra-rare Shark mask deal, though, considering I'd tell anyone to buy it at full price. I am fully convinced that the CryoGlow saved me from living in fear of my persistent adult acne striking again. No other mask does the red light, blue light, infrared, and under-eye chill pads combo like this." — Leah Stodart, Senior Shopping Reporter
