FIFA World Cup schedule today: Games, kickoff times, livestream info for June 24

Mashable - 9 hours 41 min ago

We're into the last round of the 2026 World Cup group games, and the excitement isn't letting up — these latest games decide who advances to the knockout stages and who will travel home empty-handed. And with some teams advancing from the third place in the groups, it's going to be tense.

Today, June 24, sees Brazil look to continue their momentum against Scotland. Canada are trying to secure a spot in their first ever knockout game at a World Cup.

It all kicks off today at 3 p.m. ET, with respective group games scheduled to take place simultaneously. Here's everything you need to know to tune in live today.

FIFA World Cup schedule today: June 24
  • Group B: Bosnia-Herzegovina vs. Qatar (Seattle Stadium) — kickoff at 3 p.m. ET

  • Group B: Switzerland vs. Canada (Vancouver Stadium) — kickoff at 3 p.m. ET

  • Group C: Morocco vs. Haiti (Atlanta Stadium) — kickoff at 6 p.m. ET

  • Group C: Morocco vs. Haiti (Miami Stadium) — kickoff at 6 p.m. ET

  • Group A: Czechia vs. Mexico (Mexico City Stadium) — kickoff at 9 p.m. ET

  • Group A: South Africa vs. South Korea (Monterrey Stadium) — kickoff at 9 p.m. ET

How to watch FIFA World Cup games todayWatch Bosnia-Herzegovina vs. Qatar

Bosnia-Herzegovina are yet to win a game at the 2026 World Cup. It's mathematically possible for them to automatically advance if Switzerland or Canada beat each other by a significant number of goals and Bosnia-Herzegovina beat Qatar by four or more. The latter result is definitely possible considering the hammering that Qatar took from the Canadians in their last fixture. That said, Qatar will be playing to reclaim some pride.

Live coverage will be on FS1 and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Watch Switzerland vs. Canada

It's safe to assume that both co-hosts Canada and Switzerland will advance to the knockouts. They sit at first and second place in Group B, with enough points and a good enough goal difference to hold off Bosnia-Herzegovina and Qatar (unless these games go absolutely goal crazy). The big question is whether Canada can repeat their performance against Qatar, which saw them win 6-0, against much stronger opposition in Switzerland.

Live coverage will be on Fox and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Watch Morocco vs. Haiti

Haiti are pretty much out, barring something absolutely spectacular against Morocco, the defending African Cup of Nations champions (albeit controversially). They ran rings around the mighty Brazil for parts of their opening game and held firm in a win over Scotland. The Moroccans will approach this as a tune up match, and you can expect them to aim for a statement win. After reaching the semi finals at the last World Cup, Morocco are now looking to go all the way.

Live coverage will be on FS1 and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Watch Brazil vs. Scotland

Brazil struggled in their opening game against Morocco, drawing 1-1, but found their groove with a 3-0 win over Haiti. Now they're looking to prove they're still the most exciting team on the planet in this final group game for Scotland. For the Scots this is a big game — they need to beat Brazil to automatically advance or secure a draw to be in with a chance of advancing in third place.

Live coverage will be on Fox and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Watch Czechia vs. Mexico

Czechia need a win for a chance at automatic promotion but are facing the toughest team in Group A. Indeed, Mexico have already qualified and have looked very good so far — this is a tough game for the Czechs. There's a chance of advancing from third place so Czechia will want to score as many goals as possible. And it's possible that Mexico will take their foot off the gas.

Live coverage will be on Fox and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Watch South Africa vs. South Korea

South Korea looked good in their opening win against Czechia but let their performance slip against Mexico in the second game. South Africa will prove easier competition and the Koreans will look to secure a win and automatically advance. South Africa have looked poor so far and need a win for any kind of chance of clinging onto their spot in the tournament.

Live coverage will be on FS1 and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Geek out over the best gadgets of 2026 (so far)

Mashable - 9 hours 41 min ago

The best new gadgets of 2026 include smartphones and wireless microphones with innovative display technologies, audio gear with incredible noise cancellation, and practical products for the home. There's just one problem.

Thanks to RAMageddon, it's not a good time to be an early adopter. A lot of the year's best tech products arrived with higher-than-usual prices. Fortunately, we've also seen established tech firms like Apple, Nothing, and Xreal prioritizing more affordable products, at least so far.

As we await a Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event in July and Apple's iPhone launch (where we expect to see the first foldable iPhone) in Septembers, here are our favorites from the year's first half.

Apple MacBook Neo Credit: Joe Maldonado / Mashable
  • Release date: March 11, 2026

  • Price: Starts at $599 ($499 with education discount)

  • Mashable score and awards: 4.8/5, Mashable Choice Award

The MacBook Neo is the colorful new budget laptop from Apple, which burst onto the laptop scene in March. There's nothing in the Windows laptop market that even comes close to matching its feature set and design at this price point. Haters were skeptical of its A18 Pro Chip — but as we noted in our MacBook Neo review, it performs surprisingly well and offers everything you expect from a MacBook.

The newest flagship Sony noise-cancelling earbuds were a long time coming, and arrived with a price increase over their predecessor. Still, these are some of the best wireless earbuds in the world for sound, active noise cancellation, and comfort. Read our full review of the Sony XM6 earbuds.

GoPro decided not to release a GoPro Hero 14 Black, instead offering an entirely new line of cameras. The GoPro Mission One series were designed to bridge the remaining gap between the best action cameras and true cinema-grade cameras, and based on our intitial testing, GoPro has succeeded.

The Mission One introduces a new and larger sensor, as well as a new processor, and the result is more flexibility for capturing professional-grade footage under any conditions. Read our hands-on with the GoPro Mission One Pro camera.

The new flagship Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra smartphone from Samsung has a powerful Snapdragon processor that outperforms Apple's latest A19 Pro chip. Add to that a stunning display, a full suite of AI tools, a 5,000mAh battery, and impressive cameras, and you have the best phone of the year so far. Samsung also introduced an exciting new hardware feature: the innovative Privacy Display.

The Galaxy TriFold finally made it to the U.S. market in January, and was gone almost as soon as it arrived. Reports suggested Samsung was losing money with each unit it sold, given its advanced flexible display. Still, after trying out this one-of-a-kind phone at CES 2026, I couldn't stop thinking about it. Hopefully, we'll see something like it in the near future.

DJI has had the wireless microphone market on lock in recent years, but this recent release from Insta360 made us do a double-take. The lapel mics in this kit feature a customizable e-ink display, something we've never seen before in the category. It's a genius idea, and we expect to see more brands find unexpected ways to use displays like this in the future.

We're still testing these microphones, but they've already earned a spot as one of the best new gadgets of 2026 for creators.

Here's a phone you can and should buy: The new flagship flip phone from Motorola. If you're a fan of the classic clam-shell design or just miss phones that can fit in your pocket, you'll appreciate this beauty. The Motorola Razr Ultra 2026 is a fantastic foldable with gorgeous displays and impressive performance, and its only real flaw is its price tag. Read our full review of the Motorola Razr Ultra.

We've seen some solid mid-range phones released so far this year: the iPhone 17e, Google Pixel 10a, and this new handset from British brand Nothing. What makes the Nothing (4a) stand out is the Glyph Matrix on the back of the phone. Expect to see more brands making use of the back of phones for features like this in the near future.

In an age where all smartphones look pretty much the same, credit Nothing for its unique designs. Read our full review of the Nothing (4a) Pro.

The best new tech should feel a little bit like a magic trick, and that's what it was like trying these earbuds for the first time at CES 2026. The best open earbuds keep you in touch with your environment, yet Shokz found a way to add genuine noise-reduction (not noise cancellation).

They don't totally block out the world, which would defeat the whole purpose of open earbuds. But they do offer noticeable noise reduction so you can fully appreciate your music. Read our full review of Shokz OpenFit Pro earbuds.

Among creators, the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 is a sequel years in the making. For the last few years, whenever I attended an event with a lot of creators, the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 was a common sight. Here's the bad news: Thanks to the U.S. DJI drone ban and the Chinese company's issues with the FCC, the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 isn't officially available in the U.S. yet. We have a review from Mashable's Australian team in the works, but for now, U.S. shoppers can only get this device through third-party sellers, typically with a markup.

Mashable reporters and editors were on hand when Lego debuted its new Smart Play system at CES 2026, and again in June when the company unveiled its upcoming Pokémon smart sets. Lego calls its smart bricks and mini figures the biggest evolution to the brick in 50 years, and we think they have a lot of potential as screen-free tech for young people.

As much as I appreciate the brand's just-released ROG Xreal R1 Gaming AR Glasses with a 240Hz refresh rate, they're designed for use with handheld gaming consoles — which have become outrageously expensive thanks, of course, to RAMageddon.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup has entered its next exciting stage, with the last round of group games kicking off and the knockout stage on the horizon.

Group A comes to a close with two games, including Czechia vs. Mexico. Co-hosts Mexico have already qualified for the knockouts, so all the pressure is on Czechia. They need a win here, while also hoping that South Korea lose their last Group A game against South Africa.

The group stage of the 2026 FIFA World Cup is coming to an end, with the third round of games now kicking off. Group A sees South Africa make a last ditch effort at qualifying for the knockout stage as they play South Korea. The South Africans have had a loss and a draw so far. They need a win for a chance to go through — as long as Czechia lose to Mexico in the other Group A game.

South Korea also need a win, which would see them advance from Group A with Mexico to the knockouts. South Korea showed major flair in their opener against the Czechs but were lacking the all-important quality in a follow-up loss to Mexico. Can they rediscover that quality for this decisive group contest?

Mashable - 9 hours 41 min ago

TL;DR: Get Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and more for life for only $30 during Deal Days.

$239.99 Save $210.02   Get Deal

Have you seen how much Microsoft 365 costs? It’s $99.99/year at the absolute cheapest, and you’re never done paying. Microsoft Office Professional 2021 skips all that with a one-time license, and during Deal Days, it’s on sale for $29.97 (reg. $239.99) with a free 42-lesson training course bundled in.

This is the full desktop suite you already know, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, Publisher, Access, and the free version of Teams, installed on one PC. No subscription means no monthly bill, no renewal email next year, and nothing you have to remember to cancel. Whatever you’re working on, the apps stay quick to move through. You can put a budget together in Excel, lay out a flyer in Publisher, or build a database in Access without hunting around for the right button. Keep in mind this isn’t Microsoft 365, so your features stay parked at the 2021 version instead of changing on you in the cloud.

The free course is a great addition for anyone who hasn’t had a chance to really explore what some of these apps can do. Zero to Advanced packs 42 lessons into about 25 hours and takes you from a complete beginner to comfortably productive. You’ll work through Excel formulas like VLOOKUP, XLOOKUP, and conditional formatting, then carry the same hands-on approach into Word, PowerPoint, and Access. Everything plays out inside the actual software, so you’re building real documents as you go instead of watching someone else do the clicking.

Until June 28 at 11:59 p.m. PT, you can get Microsoft Office Pro 2021 and a free Microsoft training bundle for just $29.97.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A on Switch 2 has had a massive price drop for Prime Day — save $25 with record-low price

Mashable - 9 hours 41 min ago

TL;DR: Pokémon Legends: Z-A (Nintendo Switch 2 Edition) is on a major discount at Amazon. Buy now for $44.99 on Prime Day.

$69.99 Save $25.00 Get Deal

Amazon’s Prime Day sale has been delivering a lot of Nintendo Switch 2 deals, but the retailer has dropped a surprise discount on one of last year’s most popular Switch 2 games: Pokémon Legends: Z-A

As of June 24, the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition of Pokémon Legends: Z-A is on sale for $44.99 at Amazon, a 36% markdown from its $69.99 list price. A Prime Day price exclusive, you will need an Amazon Prime membership to get the full discount. 

Now at its lowest-ever price (confirmed with price tracker camelcamelcamel), this is one of the standout Prime Day deals for gamers.

Compared with the standard Switch release, the Switch 2 Edition adds improved performance with a higher frame rate and resolution, so Lumiose City should look and run better on the newer hardware. 

The game takes place entirely in Lumiose City, the Kalos region metropolis first introduced in Pokémon X and Y. Instead of being spread across a whole region, everything fun about a Pokémon game is condensed into one giant city: packing wild zones, shops, restaurants, Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon, and the nightly Z-A Royale competition where you climb from Rank Z to Rank A.

As mentioned in Mashable’s Pokémon Legends: Z-A review, the real-time combat is the best feature of all — mechanics have been "refreshingly reimagined." 

If you play more than Nintendo Switch games, we’ve dug through Amazon and found a wide range of PlayStation Prime Day deals as well — including discounts for a ton of titles for PS5 and PS4. We've also tracked down Pokémon Prime Day deals, including Pokémon cards, Nintendo Switch games, movies, and gifts.

TL;DR: The Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Chaos Rising Booster Bundle is on sale from $45.27 in Amazon’s Prime Day, down from its usual $59.99 list price. For this six-pack box, that saves $14.72 in total and brings each booster pack down to about $7.55 before taxes.

Pokémon prices have been dropping all over the place for Prime Day, and if you’re a collector who’s been waiting for a deal to get into Chaos Rising, this is one of the rare times when you can grab the Booster Bundle for close to market price. 

As of June 24, the Pokémon TCG Chaos Rising Booster Bundle is available at Amazon for as low as $45.27. That works out to a 25% discount from its $59.99 list price, saving you $14.72 on the sealed six-pack box. 

Sold by a third-party seller, Collectors Expedition, this Booster Bundle will still be shipped by Amazon itself — and will be delivered as early as July 10 at the time of writing.

Each Booster Bundle includes six booster packs of trading cards from the Mega Evolution set’s Chaos Rising expansion, making it a more budget-friendly way to jump in than paying for a full 36-pack Booster Display Box. Based on the $45.27 Amazon price, you’re paying about $7.55 per pack before tax.

If you plan on hitting the beach, hosting friends, or heading out on a camping trip this summer, having a quality speaker in tow is a good idea. And lucky for you, plenty of fantastic options are on sale to kick off the season, thanks to Amazon Prime Day.

Prime Day formally falls on June 23 through 26 this year, but as per usual, Amazon started dropping deals on speakers weeks ahead of time. Top brands like Sony, Sonos, and JBL saw solid discounts in the lead up to the big event, but now that Prime Day is actually here, prices have dropped even further for some of our top picks. The ULT Field line of Sony speakers is seeing record-low prices across the board, as are some of our niche favorites like the Marshall Emberton III and Ultimate Ears Miniroll.

We'll be tracking the best Bluetooth speaker deals throughout Prime Day and updating this page with the absolute best pricing. If nothing catches your eye quite yet, check back as things start to ramp up.

Our favorite Bluetooth speaker for bass lovers, the Sony ULT Field 3 just hit a new best price ever for Prime Day 2026. Surprisingly powerful, it checks all the right boxes for a Bluetooth speaker: it's waterproof, dustproof, shockproof, and rustproof, and has excellent audio quality, impressive battery life, and hefty bass you can feel bump through your whole body.

Mashable's Miller Kern writes, "The speaker is great for punching up your music and bringing out little details you might miss on another speaker." Typically $209.99, it's dropped all the way down to $137.75.

If you like your tech to look as stylish as it performs, the Marshall Emberton III is another one of our top picks for a Bluetooth speaker. "Not only does this premium Bluetooth speaker have Marshall's iconic vintage look, but it's also a solid-sounding speaker for its price point," Mashable's reviewer writes. It produces clear and well-rounded sound with a slightly bass-heavy mix right out of the box. We wish there was a custom equalizer, but the companion app does have presets that you can use to personalize your sound. The list price is a bit steep for what you get, but now that it's down to a record-low $99.99, we highly recommend it.

If you're not ready to completely replace your old TV (and dish out the money to do so), but you want a speedier, more modern streaming experience, grabbing a streaming stick is the move. Their simple plug-and-play design can completely transform any TV with an HDMI port for a whole lot cheaper than getting a new one — especially if you grab one during Prime Day.

While Prime Day doesn't officially kick off until June 23, our shopping team has spotted lots of early deals worth grabbing. From streaming services to devices, I'll be tracking all of the best streaming deals throughout the Amazon Prime Day shopping event. And yes, there are also plenty of TV deals up for grabs if you are ready to take the leap.

While Amazon Fire TV Sticks are definitely running the show so far, I'll be keeping an eye out for more Roku, Google, and Apple TV streaming devices as we inch closer to the official event.

The Fire TV Stick 4K Plus is the most affordable Fire TV Stick in Amazon's lineup that offers 4K quality with HDR10+ support, as well as Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. It still features the old Android-based operating system, which can be slightly laggy, but overall it's well-loved by many longtime users. It also still allows for sideloading apps if you're into that. (Starting with the 4K Select model, all future Fire TV Sticks will switch to the Linux-based Vega operating system).

Be sure to click on the "redeem" button next to the on-page coupon code underneath the Prime logo and pricing details to score 50% off this streaming stick ahead of Prime Day. While there's a chance we could see an even lower price come Prime Day proper, this is currently its lowest price on record.

Should you buy a robot vacuum on Prime Day? I test them for a living and found some best-ever deals.

The best Prime Day robot vacuum deals at a glance: Best robot vacuum on sale overall Dreame L60 Ultra FE $699.99 (save $300) Get Deal Best mid-range robot vacuum deal Eufy C28 $449.99 (save $350) Get Deal Best budget robot vacuum deal Roborock Q10 S5+ $264.99 (save $285) Get Deal

Don't ask ChatGPT which robot vacuum you should buy on Prime Day — ask the person who's tested nearly 40 robot vacuums in their own home. Most of the best robot vacuums of the past few years, including new 2026 models, are on sale for Prime Day between June 23 and June 26. Since the event has officially kicked off, I found a handful of worthwhile robot vacuums on sale to buy right now.

That doesn't just refer to the models with the biggest discounts. I've further whittled down the list to the robot vacuums with the best ratio of cleaning specs and smart features compared to their sale price.

For example, the Roborock Saros 10R that I loved last year is on sale for $899.99 ($700 off), which is a new record low. That sounds like a steal until I remind you that you can get significantly more suction power for $699.99 with the Dreame L60 Ultra FE. The self-emptying Shark Navigator for $246.95 sounds great until you realize that just $18 more can get you mopping and small obstacle avoidance with the Roborock Q10 S5+. (If you're shopping for a really high-end robot vacuum, I recommend the Dreame X60 Max Ultra Complete, which is now $355 off, or the Narwal Flow 2, which is $450 off.)

So, here are the Prime Day deals on robot vacuums that are worth your time so far:

Not to rope the Roborock Saros 10R back into it, but it really does make the Dreame L60 Ultra FE's value stand out. This model was just released at the end of April 2026, and its 30,000 Pa suction power isn't too far off from the 35,000 Pa of the most powerful Dreame robot vacuum. With accurate AI obstacle avoidance and heated self-washing mopping pads thrown in, this is a really solid vacuum for less than $800.

I can personally attest to the L60 Ultra FE's cleaning power for the price — it's currently sitting in my living room. I'm a sucker for the corner mopping of a spinning mopping pad, which still squeezes into 90-degree angles better than roller mop robot vacuums that can slide out to clean edges. This Dreame model has done a commendable job with cat litter, crumbs under the kitchen counter, and cat scratcher flecks stuck in the rug.

The Soundcore P30i earbuds fall well within a budget price but don't skimp out on features. As a Prime Day treat, Amazon has them on sale for only $23.69 in all colorways, down from the list price of $49.99 at Soundcore.

According to Mashable's list of the best budget earbuds, the Soundcore P30i have the most impressive sound for an option under $50 (now under $25).

Summer 2026 is in full swing now. Barbecues, camping trips, vacation, and avoiding mosquitos are all on the agenda. But something else big happens every summer — Amazon Prime Day. This year, Amazon is hosting the annual sale earlier than ever, running June 23 to 26. Things are well and truly underway.

There are some excellent deals on portable power stations, from tiny models that keep your phone charged up to absolute beasts that can keep your refrigerator cooling for days. Having reviewed dozens of power stations, these are the models I would consider buying during Prime Day.

Read Mashable's full review of the Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2.

If you're looking to buy your first portable power station, the Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 is an excellent all-around model. It offers a respectable 1,024Wh capacity, which is a bit like a Goldilocks amount. That's a good amount of power for a weekend away, but it doesn't go overboard. It's also easy to transport, coming in at under 25 pounds. It has excellent recharging ability, going from dead to 100% power in under 50 minutes. It's a summer essential for me, and it's also excellent during a power outage.

If you don't need heaps of power, consider the Bluetti Elite 10, one of my favorite small portable power stations. It comes with 128Wh of power, which is enough to keep your phone, earbuds, or Kindle charged up during a camping trip or when the power goes out. Plus, the green colorway option is undeniably special.

In addition to its small size, the Bluetti Elite 10 is lightweight and great for people to carry from room to room during a power outage. On Prime Day, it's on sale at Amazon for $107.

The Jackery Explorer 1500 Ultra has a unique feature when it comes to portable power stations — it's resistant to water and dust. As you can imagine, it's not wise to add water into the mix with most portable power stations, but the Jackery Explorer 1500 Ultra has an IP 65 rating and a level nine seismic shockproofing. All of that means this model is ideal if you'll be in harsh conditions. Bring this model camping in the rain or take it to the job site. It's also ideal if you'll be working in a shed with wood shavings.

The Jackery Explorer 1500 Ultra is currently $899 at Amazon, its lowest ever price.

A huge benefit to choosing a portable power station is its ability to recharge via sunlight. Of course, in order to do that, you'll need a solar panel. The EcoFlow Delta 3 with a 220W solar panel is a great deal to hop on. For $669, down from the normal price of $999, you get the EcoFlow Delta 3 and a 220W solar panel for recharging.

The EcoFlow Delta 3 itself comes with 1,024Wh with an impressive 3,600W surge. EcoFlow states the 220W solar panel can recharge the Delta 3 back to 100% in about six hours. Take the power station and solar panel camping this summer and you might be in for unlimited power.

You might know DJI better for their leading drone technology, but the tech brand makes highly-rated power stations too. This model, the DJI Power 1000, is equipped with 1,024Wh plus a selection of outputs or multiple device charging, including various USB ports and AC outputs. The power station itself fully recharges in just 1.35 hours, making it highly practical for a continuous power supply.
