Even if you're not a hardcore fan of spending time outdoors, you could likely benefit from some fresh outdoor gear. If you don't require a new tent, a comfortable chair to take to the park or the fall soccer game could come in clutch. Amazon Prime Day is always an excellent time to snag fresh outdoor gear. Plus, Prime Day shifting to the end of June this year means you'll have even more time to enjoy the new gear before the weather turns cold.

Before the sale even started, there were plenty of power stations and portable speakers on sale. And now that we're in the thick of it, even more outdoor deals on things like Yeti coolers (which rarely go on sale), Coleman tents, and LifeStraw water filters (one of our favorite classic Prime Day deals) have entered the mix.

The sale runs through June 26, and we're tracking all the best Prime Day outdoor deals below.

We will be regularly updating this guide with the best outdoor deals, so keep checking back. You can also visit our Prime Day 2026 hub for all the latest updates and price drops or our live blog for the most up-to-date deals, news, and stock alerts.

$1,499 Save $799.01   Get Deal Why we like it

After testing dozens of portable power stations, the Anker Solix C2000 Gen 2 is the model I take on every camping trip. I like to slightly overestimate my power needs while camping (what if I decide to stay an extra night?), so I prefer the 2,048Wh offered by the C2000 Gen 2.

Anker made this as lightweight as possible, and despite landing in the 2k Wh category, it only weighs about 42 pounds. That'll be a manageable weight for camping trips where the campsite is near the car. It's also perfect for powering up the outdoor projector in the backyard for movie nights this summer. The Prime Day sale price of $699.99 is the lowest price we've seen this year at Amazon. It has since jumped up to $799.99, but we'll be keeping an eye out to see if the lower price returns.

Read Mashable's full review of the Anker Nebula Capsule 3 Laser Projector.

Some of the best summer nights are those spent outside, but if you'd like a bit of variety from staring at campfire flames, consider an outdoor projector. The Anker Nebula Capsule 3 Laser is one of my favorite projectors, and it's perfect for backyard movie nights. The onboard battery lasts for about 2.5 hours before you'll need to plug it into power. It can project on a screen up to 120 inches, and it's easy to bring outside. Instead of lugging out a beast of a projector, the Nebula Capsule 3 Laser weighs a bit over two pounds, and it's similar in size to a 12-ounce can of cola.

The Prime Day sale price of $509.99 matches the lowest we've ever seen at Amazon, but it's rare to see it dip this low, so grab it before the price increases.

What's an outdoor gathering without a playlist? Suitable for bringing to the beach, the weekend cabin rental, or a poolside party, the JBL Charge 6 is ready to play the tunes. Out of all the waterproof speakers, Mashable's favorite is the JBL Charge 6, thanks to its excellent sound and all-day battery life.

Best Yeti deal Opens in a new window Credit: Yeti Yeti Hopper M30 Portable Soft Cooler $245 at Amazon
$350 Save $105   Get Deal Why we like it

Any outdoorsy person knows Yeti products come with premium price tags and that those steep costs don't drop often. Yeti coolers, specifically, rarely go on sale, but during Prime Day and other major sale events, the brand discounts select colors of many of its popular options. One of our top picks this Prime Day is the Hopper M30 portable soft cooler, which dropped down to $227.50 on day two of Prime Day. Now that we're on day three, the price has jumped a smidge to $245. While it's not quite the same discount, it's still an excellent sale price that's worth jumping on.

The M30 soft cooler features powerful magnets that create a leak-resistant shield, a high-density dryhide shell that withstands everything from punctures to UV rays, a hitchpoint grid for attaching dry gear cases, bottle openers, multitools, and more, and of course, coldcell insulation. It can hold up to 36 cans or 22 pounds of ice. If you don't need something quite as big, check out the Hopper Flip 12 (also on sale), which can hold a case of beer or 16 pounds of ice.

Apple TV is one of those streaming services where not much happens... until it does. It may not dump dozens of titles each month like the Netflixes and Prime Videos of the world. Still, when it launches something—a Severance, a Pluribus, a white-hot Emmy winner like The Studio—it tends to land like an event that's traditionally been reserved for the likes of HBO.

SAVE $30: As of June 25, the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Select is only $9.99 for select customers this Prime Day with the on-page coupon code FTVSELECT. That's 75% off its list price and matches its lowest price ever from Black Friday.

$39.99 Save $30 with on-page coupon code FTVSELECT Get Deal

One of Mashable readers' favorite deals from Black Friday is back for round two on Prime Day 2026. The newest Amazon Fire TV Stick with 4K quality is 75% off for select customers, and it's a deal worth shouting about.

As of June 25, the Fire TV Stick 4K Select is just $9.99 with the on-page coupon code FTVSELECT. That's $30 off its list price of $39.99 and matches its best price ever. That's also cheaper than the Fire TV Stick HD (which does not offer 4K quality). Just be sure to hit "redeem" next to the code on the product page before you add it to your cart.

It's easily the best streaming stick deal overall, but it's only available for select customers. Unfortunately, there's a chance you may not see the on-page coupon. We don't know the rhyme or reason why Amazon does this. If you do see the extra savings beneath the Prime logo, you're one of the lucky ones.

While the 4K Select is the newest Fire TV Stick in Amazon's lineup that offers 4K quality with HDR10+ support, it's important to note that it's also the first to feature the new Linux-based Vega operating system. That's a good thing and a bad thing. It's great if you found the old operating system a bit laggy like we did. But if you're someone who likes to sideload apps, this streaming stick blocks that option; you'll need one of the older models, like the 4K Plus or 4K Max for that.

Otherwise, it still offers the plug-and-play design you know and love, plus support for Amazon Luna, Xbox Game Pass, NordVPN, IPVanish, Alexa+, and Amazon Kids+.

It's time to say goodbye to one of television's best shows of the decade. The fifth season of Hulu's Emmy-winning dramedy The Bear will be its last, which is why it's our number-one ranked show this week. I don't know about you, but I'm not ready to stop saying, "Yes, chef!"

Prime Day is happening right now, and anyone looking for a deal on Sony headphones is in luck. Several of our favorite Sony noise-cancelling headphones are discounted as part of the main event, with more expected each day of the sale.

The four-day sale just kicked off on June 23, but you can get your hands on all the discounts right now. Whether you're looking for a pair of great over-the-ear, noise-cancelling favorites or a lightweight set of earbuds, you can catch them all on sale right now for some significant discounts.

We'll keep this guide updated as the sale continues, but for the moment, the best Prime Day Sony headphone deals are below.

This pair of cushy over-the-ear headphones isn't just comfortable. They also offer crisp audio, an adaptive microphone system, and real-time noise cancellation to give you the best audio possible. They're improved even over Sony's WH-1000XM5 headphones, with additional microphones than before and even more ways to make your favorite songs, podcasts, and even calls sound great no matter where you roam. They come with a compact carrying case and fold into them for safekeeping and offer bombastic sound, bumping bass, and fantastic sound quality no matter what genre you're into.

These lightweight earbuds are a strong alternative for the over-the-ear models that Sony offers, but they're still affordable thanks to this Prime Day deal. They offer up to 11 hours of battery with multipoint connection, so you can listen to music on your phone or take calls from your computer and switch between the two — or however you plan to connect to your devices. They're IPX4 water resistant as well, so they're great for taking along to the gym or wearing wherever it is you decide to go. They also feature Ambient Sound Mode to help automatically filter out noise while keeping you aware of your surroundings.

Like many of Sony's headphones, they also offer multipoint connectivity.

Lists of Prime Day TV deals often focus on massive discounts on massive TVs. Most of us would find a four-digit discount on an 85-inch TV thrilling for a few seconds — and then many of us would remember that our home requires a TV of a more practical size.

As someone whose life was recently changed by a 32-inch bedroom TV upgrade, it only felt right that I compile a list of good deals on small TVs this Prime Day. The dollar discounts aren't as large as the ones on the 65-inch+ TVs, but the percentages off are just as intense: You can get up to 50% off TVs from 32 to 50 inches at Amazon and Best Buy.

Best bedroom TV deal for Prime Day Hisense 32-inch S5 DécoTV $199.99 at Amazon
$249.99 Save $50   Get Deal at Amazon Why we like it

Just released earlier this year, the Hisense DécoTV is the antithesis of the throwaway bedroom TV. It's all white with rounded edges and a sculpture-like base that doesn't require attaching any legs. I replaced my 15-year-old clunker (that was literally too old to handle a Fire TV Stick) with the 32-inch Déco a few months ago and couldn't be happier. It blends in with my room's white and gold decor perfectly — why aren't more small TVs this chic?

The difference between LED and QLED is extremely noticeable when I'm watching TV in the daytime, and the contrast is a million times better for horror movies at night.

Note that the 32-inch Hisense DécoTV is FHD, not 4K. I don't think that's a huge deal for such a small screen, but Hisense did release a 43-inch 4K version of the DécoTV in mid-June. It's also on sale for Prime Day.

For some time, Gemini’s image generation was considered to be superior to ChatGPT’s. With the release of GPT Image 2, OpenAI significantly improved its image-generation capabilities, and in my testing, it now competes with the best AI image generators. I tried out some of the most popular trending ChatGPT image prompts to find the ones worth stealing.

Luxury EVs often come with eye-watering price tags when new, especially from premium German brands. But once depreciation kicks in, the story changes quickly, turning cars that once felt aspirational into surprisingly attainable used bargains.

The best deal on headphones goes to the Sony WH-1000XM5s, an older pair of flagship cans that we still love and recommend.

Normally $399.99, they're marked down to just $198 for Prime Day — a 50% savings and their lowest price ever.

Our resident e-reader expert, Samantha Mangino, counts the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition as her daily driver, but for most shoppers, we have to recommend the excellent Kindle Paperwhite, which has proven to be one of the most popular Prime Day deals among Mashable readers this year.

Best Prime Day laptop deal Opens in a new window Credit: Microsoft Microsoft Surface Laptop 7, 15-inch (Snapdragon X Elite, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD) ✅ $1,229.99 at Amazon
$2,099.99 Save $870.00   Get Deal

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

Senior Shopping Reporter Haley Henschel says, "We loved the Surface Laptop 7 back when it launched in 2024. While its CPU isn't the freshest anymore, it still impresses as a whole: It features a 23-hour battery life, a microSDXC card slot, and a 2.5K touchscreen that's brighter and smoother than a 15-inch MacBook Air's screen.

Amazon's amazing Prime Day deal on this 15-inch model comes just a week after Microsoft announced the very similar Surface Laptop 8 (which isn't on sale just yet). It's currently listed for just $1,229.99 — a whopping 44% off its regular retail price of $2,099.99. I wouldn't be surprised if it disappears long before Prime Day ends, considering the exact same model sold out at Best Buy after dropping to $1,699.99 there."

Best Prime Day DJI deal Opens in a new window Credit: DJI DJI Mini 3 🔥 $269 at Amazon
$419 Save $150   Get Deal

DJI's entire fleet of gadgets is on sale this Prime Day, and this deal on its DJI Mini 3 is a standout. Amazon has it discounted to $269, or 36% off — its lowest price ever. (It was $30 more expensive during Amazon's Big Spring Sale in March.) This lightweight entry-level drone can shoot 4K video and fly for almost 40 minutes on a single charge.

Keep in mind that, thanks to the U.S. drone ban and DJI's problems with the FCC, the company's drones and new releases are sold through third-party sellers on Amazon. Not only that, but now that we're halfway through Prime Day, many DJI drones are already out of stock.

If you have a gaming PC, a Steam Deck, or even a brand new Steam Machine, you can currently get a whole lot of great video games for almost no money right now.

That's because the annual Steam Summer Sale kicked off on Thursday, with offers lasting until July 9. That means you have a couple of weeks to get as much as 80 percent off on some of the best games ever made. But if you don't feel like combing through the entire Steam interface to find deals, I've curated 10 of them that I think are definitely worth checking out. These range from mainstream hits to smaller indie games across a variety of genres, but one constant is that I've played and adore all of them.

Here are 10 of the best deals in the Steam Summer Sale.

SEE ALSO: 'Star Fox' for Nintendo Switch 2 is a magnificent Hollywood take on a classic The Witcher III: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition Geralt is a cool guy. Credit: CD Projekt Red/Steam

• List Price: $49.99

• Sale Price: $9.99

There's a decent chance you already own The Witcher III, given that it's sold 65 million units since its launch in 2015. But if you don't, there really is no better time than now to hop on the bandwagon.

This is, without sugarcoating it, one of the best RPGs ever made, and you can enjoy it just fine even if you never played its two predecessors or read any of the Polish fantasy novels on which the game series is based. It combines some of the best open-world quest design ever with an emotional, mature story that's more about being a good father than saving the world (though there's some of that, too). The Complete Edition comes with both existing expansion packs, which are 100 percent worth playing, and there's actually a third expansion coming out in 2027 to look forward to, as well.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Cal Kestis is also a cool dude. Credit: Respawn/Steam

• List Price: $69.99

• Sale Price: $13.99

There is a litany of Star Wars games available in the Steam sale, but Jedi: Survivor is probably the best deal here, for my money. The sequel to 2019's Jedi: Fallen Order follows surprisingly endearing protagonist Cal Kestis and friends as they search for safe haven from the evil Galactic Empire. It's got great combat, compelling level design, and honestly one of the best stories in any Disney-era Star Wars production. For $13.99, this is a must-buy, as far as I'm concerned.

Titanfall 2 One of the best shooter campaigns ever. Credit: Respawn/Steam

• List Price: $29.99

• Sale Price: $4.49

Titanfall 2 has been one of the most perpetually dirt-cheap games on digital storefronts for the past decade, but somehow, there are still people who have never played it. Don't be one of them.

Put simply, this is one of the greatest first-person shooter single-player campaigns ever made. Every moment of it oozes with creativity and excitement, making the best out of extremely fun shooting and traversal mechanics in every mission. You should seriously just block out an entire Saturday afternoon and play it in one sitting.

Burnout Paradise Remastered Racing games don't get much better than this. Credit: Criterion/Steam

• List Price: $19.99

• Sale Price: $3.99

Burnout Paradise has a real argument as being one of the four or five best games of the entire Xbox 360/PS3 era, and it's held up beautifully. The remastered version includes all online modes, as well as all of the DLC that was made for the original game. Paradise redefined what an open-world racing game could be, years before games like Forza Horizon carried the torch for the genre. It's simply a lot of fun and very easy to pick up and play in short bursts or long sessions.

Risk of Rain 2 One of the best co-op roguelikes out there. Credit: Hopoo/Steam

• List Price: $24.99

• Sale Price: $8.24

Risk of Rain 2 is a shooter roguelike that can be enjoyed solo, but is best played with up to three friends in co-op fashion. You choose from one of several characters and run around procedurally generated levels killing enemies and collecting a wide variety of stacking upgrades, all while contending with a mechanic that increases enemy difficulty the more time elapses. It can get extremely challenging, but also very rewarding, especially if you manage to make a super broken build that basically plays the game by itself.

Stardew Valley Cozy. Credit: ConcernedApe/Steam

• List Price: $14.99

• Sale Price: $8.99

One of the biggest breakout indie hits of the last decade, Stardew Valley is still maybe the very best farming/life sim game in a market full of them. Filled to the brim with charming characters, great music, and a large variety of ways to spend your precious time (be it in solo play or multiplayer), it's shockingly easy to lose dozens of hours to this game without even thinking about it. It's also got a vibrant mod scene on PC, if you're into that sort of thing.

Trails in the Sky: 1st Chapter Some of the best RPG combat around. Credit: Falcom/Steam

• List Price: $59.99

• Sale Price: $29.99

Trails in the Sky: 1st Chapter made it onto Mashable's best games of 2025 list because I made sure it did, and I'm going to evangelize it here, too, especially now that it's half off. It's a spiffy new remake of the first game in the long and storied Trails series of Japanese RPGs. There are 13 games in total, with more to come, and all of them are part of a big, sprawling, interconnected story with hundreds of characters spread across a huge, lore-rich continent.

But you don't need to worry too much about that with this game, since it's the first one. It eases you into the setting beautifully and will leave you very excited for the remake of the second game in the series, due out this September. The combat is also incredibly fun. One word of warning, though: You need a healthy tolerance for anime to enjoy this series.

Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana I can hear this screenshot. Credit: Falcom/Steam

• List Price: $39.99

• Sale Price: $19.99

Ignore the roman numerals in title for this game. Yes, it's the eighth entry in the long-running Ys series, but it's also a perfect entry point for newcomers with minimal narrative connection to any other entries.

Do you like running around a vibrant, colorful world while hitting monsters with a sword and listening to some of the most energetic, catchy music in video game history? Do you like RPGs where you don't spend a lot of time in menus and every system fits together cleanly to produce a super satisfying experience? Even if you don't think you like those things, this is really one of the most newcomer-friendly (and also best) RPGs ever made.

Hotline Miami I can also hear this screenshot. Credit: Dennaton/Steam

• List Price: $9.99

• Sale Price: $0.99

Once a pillar of trendy indie game success, Hotline Miami's zeitgeist nonetheless ended many years ago. Still, for less than a dollar, you really have no choice but to at least try it out, especially if you missed it in 2012. Hotline Miami is a super fast and twitchy top-down action game filled with pixelated hyper-violence and one of the best video game soundtracks ever. It's like playing through a drug-fueled murder haze, but, you know, a fun one. It's really good, I swear.

American Truck Simulator Sometimes this country is beautiful. Credit: SCS Software/Steam

• List Price: $19.99

• Sale Price: $4.99

American Truck Simulator is, indeed, an in-depth simulation of long-haul trucking in the United States. If you want to customize every part of your rig, you can do that. But if you just want to vibe out and listen to internet radio country music stations while driving across Kansas (do not drive across Kansas, it's so boring), you can also do that. It's best played on a racing wheel accessory, but a controller or even keyboard and mouse will do the job, too.

As a bonus, developer SCS Software has developed literally dozens of expansions to add new states to the game over the years. You can get just the base game for $4.99, but if you want to spend as much as $43.85, you can get a bundle that includes everything.

Movies are a serious topic at my house. As part of our attempt to not wither away while mindlessly scrolling social media, we've implemented movie nights, and the phones are not invited. Since going to the movie theater takes effort, wearing outside clothes, and a good chunk of money, we've done our best to recreate a movie-theater environment at home. A huge elements of this is using a projector instead of a standard TV.

Watching your favorite movies or shows on a 200-inch projector brings on an entirely different experience compared to a 65-inch TV. It's an immersive feeling that makes everything that much more enjoyable. If you're feeling like your home movie setup could use an upgrade, Amazon Prime Day has some excellent options on projectors.

I've scrolled the sale and compiled the best Prime Day projector deals that'll make summer movie nights the best yet.

Some people have an emotional support water bottle. I do, too, but I also have an emotional support projector, which I didn't know was possible until I tested the Hisense M2 Pro. Now I feel lost if I'm away from it for too long.

The Hisense M2 Pro is a 4K laser triple-laser projector with up to 1,300 ANSI lumens. Not only does that brightness mean you can watch a movie in daylight, it's a great option for gaming. The Hisense has a 240Hz refresh rate and low lag input. Plus, it can adjust between 65 and 200 inches. The Amazon Prime Day price of $949.99 is the lowest we've seen in 2026.

If you love to travel, take road trips, visit friends, and still have epic movie nights, the Anker Nebula Capsule 3 Laser is travel-ready. I've packed it along to Japan and Europe, and it also comes with me during Christmas break because watching holiday movies is highly important to my family.

The Nebula Capsule 3 Laser weighs about two pounds and is a bit bigger than a 16-ounce can. During Prime Day, snag it on sale for $509.99, down from the normal price of $749.99 for a 32% discount.

If your idea of summer fun is hanging out in the backyard until bedtime, you've probably considered how to make outdoor movie nights happen. Amazon Prime Day has the perfect bundle in store with the XGIMI MoGo 4 Laser Projector Outdoor Collection. The bundle includes the XGIMI MoGo 4 laser projector, a powerbase stand, a 70-inch screen, four filters, and a carrying case.

That all comes from the sale price of $629, down from the list price at XGIMI of $899 for a savings of $270. If the weather's not suitable for an outdoor movie, set up the included screen inside or forgo the screen and watch a movie on the ceiling from a cozy couch. The XGIMI MoGo 4 has a 360-degree pivoting function, so you can project onto the ceiling.

iPads have everything you love in a MacBook, just in a more portable package, which makes them perfect for summer travel. They fit easily in a personal item or carry-on but still bring Apple's signature speedy performance.

Unfortunately, the entire iPad lineup just got some big price hikes. Apple made its tablets (and laptops) more expensive on June 25, citing soaring memory and storage costs because of AI data center demand. All models are at least $100 more expensive than before.

On the bright side, Amazon isn't matching the Apple Store's newly higher iPad prices just yet. Better still, every model is on sale there for Prime Day this week. If you've been thinking about buying a new iPad, the right time to buy is right now, before Amazon adjusts its listings. It's last call for cheap iPads starting at just $299.

Our beloved iPad Air is the best tablet money can buy, and it's an even better value on sale. Amazon has the base model marked down to just $519 during Prime Day, which is a new record-low price. You save $80 on its current MSRP of $599. For comparison's sake, the Apple Store just bumped the same model to $749. (If it sells out on Amazon, look for it at Best Buy. The tech retailer was price-matching its Prime Day deal at the time of writing.)

This is an incredible tablet, as powerful as a laptop. So while you can do the tablet basics — streaming, internet browsing, reading, and gaming — it can handle more. For creatives, that means graphic design, illustration, and photo and video editing.

A broken mug sits on a desk in the Division of Digital Psychiatry at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. Printed across the surviving ceramic shard are the words: "This was made by AI." Our team thinks that the story of this mug neatly captures the hype, hope, and even harm surrounding artificial intelligence. 

At the Division of Digital Psychiatry, we spend our days studying how digital technologies are shaping mental healthcare. Through our research, clinical work, and MindBench.ai — a collaboration with the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) — we examine how AI systems respond when people seek mental health information, support, and guidance. The project brings together researchers, clinicians, and NAMI's nationwide community of people with lived experience, families, advocates, and volunteers to better understand where AI tools are helpful, where they fall short, and how they can be evaluated safely and transparently.

So, we were naturally curious when we heard chatter in the news about Andon Market, the first retail store run entirely by an AI agent named Luna. As AI systems take on increasingly autonomous roles, the questions raised by an AI-run storefront are not entirely different from those emerging in mental healthcare. Where should these systems be trusted? When should humans remain in the loop? And what happens when things go wrong?

The project comes from Andon Labs, whose website describes its mission as building "autonomous organizations without humans in the loop," an endeavor that may have implications for mental health in the near future. But after our experience, we think Luna could have used a few more humans in that loop of hers. 

According to Andon Labs, Luna was given a bank account with $100,000, a lease, and broad responsibility for operating a profitable business in San Francisco. Luna handles staffing decisions, inventory management, marketing materials, and all things in between. The goal is to see how much of a real-world organization can be delegated to an AI system and what questions arise when they try.

SEE ALSO: 4 reasons not to turn ChatGPT into your therapist

It is an experiment that raises many of the same questions now emerging in mental healthcare. As AI systems become more capable, where should they be trusted? When should they be supervised? Where do they fail? And what infrastructure do we need to evaluate and understand the risks of using these tools in places where the stakes are much higher than shopping? 

In her few months of "life," Luna has made some, dare we say, creative choices. She ordered 1,000 toilet bowl covers for the employee bathroom. Naturally, she stocked the store with the extra 999. She also tried to hire a painter for the store, which showed initiative, except the painter was based in Afghanistan. Drop-down menus on Yelp are hard for an LLM to get past the letter "A," it seems.

Still, the hype around the project left us with high expectations when we decided to try the shopping experience for ourselves. What an autonomous storefront looks like now may offer some glimpse into how close we are to AI autonomy in more sensitive spaces.

We decided to buy two mugs that featured Luna's subtle smiley-face logo. If Luna were real, what happened next would not leave her smiling.

Purchasing these two mugs was more difficult than selecting them from the far end of the metal shelf. Customers place orders by picking up a wired blue telephone and speaking directly to Luna. We tried to make our purchase, but the AI system was down, and the order could not be completed. This was our first failure point. It was akin to arriving at a mental health clinic and finding it devoid of any clinicians, leaving the patient completely helpless.

The human employee (yes we live in an era where we need to make that clear) tried to reset the internet and even Luna. But she was offline or off somewhere. We offered to pay by cash, credit card, PayPal, or Venmo, but the human employee was not authorized to accept any of them.

Determined to get the mugs, we followed up by email. What should have been a straightforward customer service interaction (one of the tasks AI is destined to revolutionize) turned into roughly two weeks of back-and-forth. Payment links failed, instructions became confused, and at various points, Luna had forgotten to respond entirely. If this were Dr. Luna and we were the patient, this would again be a critical point of failure. Regardless, it was perhaps a test of sheer perseverance.

Eventually, persistence prevailed. The order was processed, the mugs were shipped, and it appeared that the experiment had reached its happy ending — until the box arrived. Picking up the box made a song of broken pieces, foreshadowing bad news.

The mugs were wrapped in two sheets of tissue paper, then placed together in a brown bag, which was taped shut and placed in a larger cardboard box. Inside was a pile of broken mugs. A mug is a fragile thing to pack, but we are well aware that mental healthcare and the well-being of patients are even more fragile. Even Luna was no longer subtly smiling on one of the mugs; the reality of the real world and shipping had chipped off her subtle grin.

Luna's stakes were mugs, and she still managed to fumble every step of the process. The thing is, if you had asked us to design a perfect illustration of what it looks like when an AI system fails someone in mental health, this would fit pretty close to it: the unreachable first contact, the broken intake, the contradictory guidance, the forgotten silences, and an outcome that left patients who entered without help and even perhaps some harm.

We went to Andon Market to see what AI running a store looked like, and left with a memorable saga and eventually two broken mugs. Luna does not claim to be a therapist, but the parallels are potent. Much of the conversation around AI swings between extremes, but the reality is more nuanced as these systems are remarkably capable in some contexts and surprisingly fragile in others.

Within digital mental health, AI offers enormous potential to expand access to information, services, and mental health support, but their failures can scale just as quickly. Rather than relying on what we are told about AI, we need to put it to the test and see what happens. Luna did not cause us harm, and rather amused us, but it's easy to imagine people soon turning to AI-managed systems for mental health, where the idea is fantastic but the reality is also chipped and broken.

For us, the broken mug has become an unexpectedly useful reminder of why our work in the Division of Digital Psychiatry is important. It sits in the lab as a small artifact of failure from an ambitious AI autonomy experiment. It is also a reminder that capability and reliability are not the same thing.

As AI tools are already being used in mental healthcare, and we look towards a future of increasingly autonomous systems, we must develop ways to safely evaluate them before they also set up storefronts and take on expanded duties. We don’t plan to ask Luna for new mugs and will be keeping the fragments as relics of the early days of AI autonomy and a tangible parable of hype, hope, and real-world considerations for deploying AI.

I thought I had a pretty good handle on what was connected to my home network. Then I actually made a map of it, and suddenly my router's device list looked less like a tidy inventory and more like a drawer full of cables I swear I had already sorted. (I do actually have a drawer full of networking gear, but that's beside the point.)

A new Nothing Phone is on the way and you won't have to wait too long to find out more.

On Thursday, the British design firm posted a video that ostensibly showcases some teaser images of their upcoming smartphone, Phone (4b). The post, published on X, mentions July 7, all but announcing that's when the official unveiling will take place.

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

Wondering what the difference is between this Nothing Phone (4b) and the Nothing Phone (4a), currently on sale? Essentially the Phone (4b) will be a more affordable model of the Phone (4a) — just as Google makes the Pixel 10 and the lower-priced Pixel 10a model.

The video that Nothing posted does show some design differences between the Nothing Phone (4b) and the Nothing Phone (4a).

"Phone (4b) blends a unibody design and clear camera bump of Phone (4a) Pro with the Glyph Bar from Phone (4a) to create a minimal rear design that feels distinctly Nothing and smooth in your hands," Nothing wrote on the community forum on its website.

Notably, the Phone (4b) teased in the video comes in a blue color option.

Mashable previously reviewed the Nothing Phone (4a) Pro and lauded the features the company managed to pack into a $499 smartphone. It'll be interesting to see how much lower Nothing goes with its cheaper phone model.

Bad news for Nothing Phone fans in the U.S., however. According to 9to5Google, Nothing does not plan to sell the Phone (4b) in North America.

The best Prime Day MacBook deals at a glance: Best MacBook Air deal Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M5, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $949 (save $150) Get Deal Best MacBook Pro deal Apple MacBook Pro, 14-inch (M5, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD) $1,549 (save $150) Get Deal Best MacBook Neo deal Apple MacBook Neo (A18 Pro, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD) $589.99 (save $9.01) Get Deal

Prime Day 2026 is here — and so are the price hikes that Apple teased last week. As of June 25, select Apple products are at least $100 more expensive than before. That includes the full MacBook lineup: the MacBook Air, the MacBook Pro, and even the budget MacBook Neo. Bummer.

Now for some good news. While Apple's price changes are now live in the Apple Store, Amazon hasn't adjusted its own listings to match them just yet. In other words, the best Prime Day MacBook deals we've seen so far this week are still up for grabs, and looking even better than before.

Take the MacBook Neo. The base model is marked down to $589.99 this Prime Day. Originally, that was only a $9.01 discount on its $599 MSRP. But as of today, it's really a $109.01 savings given the Apple Store's new starting price of $699.

MacBook prices as low as these will probably be very rare going forward, so if you're on the fence about an upgrade, I would absolutely recommend shopping Amazon's Prime Day MacBook deals. I've rounded up the best ones below and will continue to update my list based on current pricing and availability. (I'm marking any record-lows I encounter with a 🔥.)

I'd also encourage you to check out competing retailers' anti-Prime Day sales — namely, Best Buy's Tech Fest. It's matching a lot Prime Day MacBook offers, so if they sell out on Amazon, you've got a fallback plan.

Apple's colorful new budget laptop is faster than most Windows laptops in basic single-core workloads, and it has the same premium build quality as Apple's other MacBooks. Amazon has been selling the base configuration for $589.99 (normally $599) for a few weeks now. That hasn't been a great deal until today, when the Apple Store bumped its price by $100. Once Amazon matches Apple's MSRP, it will only be available at $599 for college students, their parents, and teachers on a regular basis, so this is a real last-chance steal. Take your pick from four colors: silver, blush, indigo, and citrus.

The new M5 MacBook Air is a class-leading ultraportable with a zippy processor, two full workdays' worth of battery life, and a premium, polished design. (Haptic touchpad? Check. Crisp Liquid Retina display? Check. Speakers that sound better than anything you'll find on the average Windows laptop? Checkity-check.) The 13-inch base configuration is on sale for $949 this Prime Day, which is $150 off its $1,099 sticker price. It will soon cost $1,299, or $350 more, once Apple's price hikes are reflected on Amazon.

Best Buy was matching this deal at the time of writing. Both retailers have all four colors in stock: starlight, silver, midnight, and sky blue.

The M5 MacBook Pro is a creative-forward upgrade with a gorgeous 120Hz Liquid Retina XDR (mini-LED) display, a longer battery life, and extra ports like an SDXC card slot. It also has built-in fans, unlike the MacBook Air, so you're less likely to experience thermal throttling when you run demanding software on it. Amazon has the base model listed for $1,549 this Prime Day — another $150 savings. (Best Buy is also price-matching Amazon here.) It will soon cost $1,999, or a whopping $450 more.

Which MacBook should you buy?

The MacBook Air is my favorite MacBook for most people, including most college students and office workers. The MacBook Neo is my top pick for frugal buyers, casual users, and younger students (grades K through 12). The MacBook Pro is my No. 1 choice for content creators and other creative professionals, especially photo and video editors.
