Hisense is expanding into portable audio with its new Boom speaker family — score loud deals on Prime Day
You know Hisense for giving high-end TVs budget-friendly price tags, but now the brand is bringing that same energy into portable audio. Just in time for Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days event running Oct. 6 through Oct. 7, Hisense is officially launching its brand-new Boom family of Bluetooth speakers — and dropping immediate discounts on all three models.
Whether you need a lightweight speaker to throw in a backpack or a heavy-hitting outdoor system with thumping bass for pool days and backyard hangouts, the lineup has something for every setup.

The entry point to Hisense’s new audio line balances grab-and-go portability with solid volume, pushing out up to 40 watts of punchy sound with crisp highs. The FlexBoom speaker carries an IP67 rating for dust- and water-resistance, so it handles beach trips, rainy hikes, and poolside drops. You get up to 20 hours of battery life on a single charge — plus a fast 10-minute quick charge that nets two extra hours of playback along with built-in FM radio, hands-free speakerphone calling, and easy app controls to tweak your sound settings.

The mid-sized WeBoom is ideal for full-day outdoor adventures, pairing a massive 24-hour battery life with a quick 10-minute charge that gets you two extra hours of playtime. Equipped with dual woofers and passive radiators, a single tap of the Bass Boost button cranks up the low end, while beat-synced ambient lighting sets the mood through the ConnectLife app. It is built like a tank with IP67 dust- and water-resistance, and supports Auracast pairing so you can link multiple speakers together.

It packs an IP67 waterproof design, up to 24 hours of battery life, and a built-in power bank to keep your phone charged while streaming. Extra perks like beat-driven lights, a cozy campfire mode, mic and guitar inputs, and multi-speaker pairing make it a complete portable entertainment rig.
No matter which size best fits your vibe, grabbing these Prime Day prices before the end of Oct. 7 is an absolute no-brainer.

Dont miss Prime Day’s biggest surprise: A rare Yeti Tundra cooler deal
SAVE 25%: For Prime Big Deal Days 2026, the Yeti Limited Edition Tundra 45 Cooler is on sale for $243.75 at Amazon, down from its $325 list price. That’s 25% off and a rare discount on one of Yeti's most popular products.
Opens in a new window Credit: Yeti Yeti Limited Edition Tundra 45 Cooler $243.75 at Amazon$325 Save $81.25 Get Deal
Prime Big Deal Days usually brings standard price cuts on tech and small appliances, but experienced Prime Day shoppers also know this is one of the only times of the year when Yeti coolers go on sale. Even so, Yeti's hard coolers almost never drop below their standard retail price, making this Amazon offer one of the standout discounts of the shopping event so far.
Right now, the Yeti Tundra 45 Hard Cooler in the limited-edition aquamarine violet color is marked down to $243.75, a 25% savings off its standard $325 list price.
The Yeti Tundra 45 is a rock-solid, single-piece hard cooler that offers enough space to hold up to 26 standard aluminum cans, with a recommended 2:1 ice-to-contents ratio. Instead of cheap glued panels, Yeti uses a rotomolded plastic shell — making the body practically uncrackable even if it takes a beating in a truck bed. Our tech editor personally tested Yeti's Tundra coolers to verify the brand's claims that they hold ice for at least three days, and he came away very impressed. There's a reason Yeti is the gold standard for outdoor coolers.
SEE ALSO: The best Prime Day outdoor deals: Anker power stations, Igloo coolers, and LifeStraws are among our top picksThe insulation setup is what really sets it apart from grocery-store ice chests. It packs up to three inches of pressure-injected foam directly into extra-thick walls, paired with a freezer-style sealing gasket around the lid to lock in cold air and keep heat out for multi-day trips. On the lid, heavy-duty rubber T-latches pull the lid down tight without snapping, rusting, or popping loose over time.
For extra usability out in the field, non-marking rubber feet on the bottom keep the cooler from sliding around on slippery boat decks or truck beds, while a leakproof drain plug lets you empty melted ice without removing the cap entirely. It also comes with a certified bear-resistant rating when locked and ships with a removable dry goods basket to keep your food out of the slush at the bottom.

Bluetti power stations get steep price cuts on October Prime Day: Shop our top picks for under $1,000
If you're anything like the Mashable team, you'll get a buzz of excitement when all the prices start dropping over sale events like Prime Big Deal Days, which has launched on Amazon and runs through Oct. 7. There are deals across all kinds of tech and devices, but there's one specific category that's sure to give you even more buzz: power stations. And specifically, power stations from Bluetti, one of the top names in portable power station tech.
There's a selection of Bluetti power stations discounted right now, with major price cuts of up to 50%, which amounts to hundreds of dollars. The Bluetti Elite 300, for instance, is $499.01 off, which puts the model back to its lowest-ever price — the first time it's dropped to that price point since June.
SEE ALSO: Amazon announces dates for Prime Big Deal Days, its 48-hour 'October Prime Day' salePart of the fun of these sale events is that prices keep dropping and new deals get added, but these are the best deals on Bluetti power stations right now — and you never know when a deal might sell out.
Best premium Bluetti power station deal Opens in a new window Credit: Bluetti Bluetti Elite 300 Power Station $999.99 at Amazon$1,499 Save $499.01 Get Deal Why we like it
The biggest and most powerful of the Bluetti portable power stations we've picked, the Bluetti Elite 300 has an impressive 3014.4Wh capacity and a 2,400W output. It's powerful enough to keep a fridge running for two days. Despite packing all that power, the Elite 300 is highly portable and offers 11 ports for all your devices.
It's currently at its lowest ever price of $999.99, saving you $499.01 overall.

To call anything that costs almost $500 "budget" seems like a stretch, but power stations are expensive devices, and the current discounted price of $498.99 for the Bluetti Elite 100 V2 is a steal. It's the most portable of the bunch, and while it loses something in its capacity and output — it has a 1024Wh capacity and 1800W output — you have to be a serious off-grid adventurer to notice the difference.

I tried 3 Linux distros inside Windows for free to see which felt most familiar
I spend a lot of time behind a computer, and for decades Windows has been my daily driver. Mostly, that's because it's the environment I had to work in at the different companies I've worked for over the years. That said, the gap between Windows and Linux keeps getting smaller for the things I actually do every day. At this point, I can see pretty clearly that Linux can handle my regular workload and workflow without too much compromise.
ASOS app users spammed by weird messages after reported hack
UK fashion retailer ASOS has reportedly been hacked, and its customers are finding out about it in an unusual way.
According to the BBC, shoppers in the UK are being spammed with pop-up messages from within the official ASOS app, seemingly sent by hackers who have seized control over some part of ASOS' IT systems.
"Dear ASOS DPO and IT, we have fully compromised the Snowflake instance. Engage with us, or we will leak it," reads one message, per an X user posting a screenshot on Tuesday.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.Judging by posts on social media, the incident appears to be fairly widespread, with dozens of people reporting that they've received this message.
Snowflake is a data storage company which ASOS may be using, though Snowflake's official website doesn't mention it in its list of partners. ASOS itself hasn't posted anything about the incident through its official channels; Mashable has contacted the company and will update this article when we hear back.
SEE ALSO: OpenAI discloses another Australian government hackFor now, ASOS app users should refrain from using the app and they should definitely not click the link included in the pop-up message. If you must know, the link leads to a Telegram channel of a group called the "Xuanye Group," which has used the channel to brag about hacking ASOS.

Featured Video For You How prediction markets got people betting on nuclear warOctober Prime Day takes up to 42% off DeWalt tools: Shop cordless drills, drivers, and toolkits
Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days is officially live, kicking off 48 hours of sitewide price cuts. While the October event usually gets hyped for smart speakers and TV discounts, some of the best stealth savings are landing squarely in the tool aisle.
If your current home tool setup consists of a bent butter knife and a mystery hammer you inherited three apartments ago, now is the time to fix that. Solid power tools aren't just for full-time pros — they're what turns fixing a wobbly cabinet into a quick 10-minute fix.
We waded through Amazon's massive wall of discounts to pull out standout DeWalt deals that give you maximum reliability, battery cross-compatibility, and real value without buying filler tools you'll never touch.
Best under $20 DeWalt tool deal Opens in a new window Credit: DeWalt DeWalt 40-Piece FlexTorq Screwdriver Bit Set $18 at Amazon$21.57 Save $3.57 Get Deal Why we like it
Stripped screw heads and snapped tips turn simple fixes into disasters. This 40-piece DeWalt set solves that. The precision-machined tips grip fasteners tightly to prevent slippage, while the impact-rated core flexes under heavy loads so bits don't shatter at high torque.
You get an essential lineup of Phillips, square, Torx, and flathead drivers, plus nutsetters and a magnetic lock sleeve that holds long screws in place for easy one-handed driving. It all packs into a clear-lid hard case with quick-release bit bars, so you can grab the exact bit you need without wrestling with tight plastic slots.
Best DIY car maintenance deal Opens in a new window Credit: DeWalt DeWalt 108-Piece Mechanics Tools & Socket Set $65.99 at Amazon$79.97 Save $13.98 Get Deal Why we like it
This 108-piece DeWalt set is tailored for DIY vehicle work. It comes loaded with both SAE and Metric 6-point sockets — giving you exact-fit coverage for foreign and domestic cars, lawnmowers, and trailers — plus deep sockets specifically built for reaching recessed bolts and exposed wheel studs.
The sockets feature off-corner loading tech that grips the flat sides of a bolt rather than the corners, delivering max turning power without stripping rusted or stubborn hardware. Both the 1/4-inch and 3/8-inch drive ratchets feature 72-tooth gears and low-profile heads, giving you a tight 5-degree arc swing to turn bolts in cramped engine bays where you barely have room to move your wrist.

A basic drill handles lightweight tasks, but driving long lag bolts or driving fasteners into dense lumber requires the raw power of an impact driver. The DeWalt 20V MAX Cordless Drill & Impact Driver Combo gives you both without the extra bulk. Both tools are short and lightweight, making it easy to reach into tight cabinet corners, floor joist spaces, or overhead frames without exhausting your wrists.
The drill’s half-inch ratcheting chuck locks bits down tight so they don't slip, while the impact driver lets you swap driver bits one-handed. Integrated LED work lights keep dark workspaces lit, and two 20V MAX battery packs let you keep one on the charger while powering through your project.

We've been keeping tabs on October Prime Day deals for weeks now, and for most of the categories we cover, there have been plenty of opportunities to save long before the event officially went live. However, that was not the case with DJI drones.
We've been waiting patiently for something to drop, but we've been left empty-handed. That is until now, because the DJI Mini 3 has dropped to an all-time low price for a limited time. We were ready to give up, but DJI came through when we needed it most.
For a limited time, the DJI Mini 3 drone is down to $269 on October Prime Day. That's the lowest-ever price for this creator favorite.
The DJI Mini 3 is a great choice for content creation. It offers Dual Native ISO Fusion, enabling the capture of details in highlights and shadows, both day and night.

As of Oct. 6, this Kindle model is priced at $519.99 on Amazon. Compared to its usual cost of $679.99, that means you get to keep $160 in your pocket. Plus, it looks like it's not exclusive to Prime members. So, if you're not signed up and just casually shopping around, this is a great time to grab it while it's still at its lowest price.
SEE ALSO: October Prime Day is here: We found 100+ deals on Apple, Bose, Kindle, Lego, and Samsung favoritesWhile it's on the pricier side of Kindle devices, Mashable's Samantha Mangino still had very high praise for the Kindle Scribe Colorsoft, writing in her review that it's "an exceptional e-reader with strong writing capabilities." It features a slim design — 5.4mm and 400 grams — and an 11-inch glare-free Colorsoft display. Mangino's review also says it's "faster, brighter, and a lot of fun for writing, reading, and doodling."
It has quite a hefty battery life as well, offering up to eight weeks of reading power or up to two weeks if you're spending most of your time writing on it. Plus, with 64GB of storage, you have plenty of space to fill up with books, notes, and more.
Considering the Kindle Scribe Colorsoft (64GB) has a limited-time deal tag, it may only be available until the end of Prime Big Deal Days.

There are a couple of things we keep a keen eye on over major shopping events like Prime Day and Black Friday: TV deals and record-low deals.
Can you imagine how our eyes bulged when we spotted the extremely popular Samsung The Frame TVs at all-time low prices? It really doesn't get any better than that for deal seekers.
A lot of TV brands have tried desperately to produce their own dupes of the Samsung Frame TV, but for many shoppers, there's nothing like the original. In our roundup of the best art TVs, we said this TV is an "easy choice for anyone who would simply feel most comfortable investing in the OG." There are many reasons for its top spot in our breakdown, including the fact that "the Frame's best-in-class anti-glare display and higher peak brightness will fare better than the Canvas if your framed TV is going to be in a room that gets heavy direct sunlight."
If that wasn't enough, The Frame was our tech editor's most recommended TV for several years running, only "eclipsed by the S95H OLED because it copied The Frame's best features." According to Timothy Werth, this "famous art TV has a legendary anti-glare matte display that's unlike any TV you've owned before."
For a limited time, you can save up to $600 on the Samsung Frame TVs at Amazon:
Samsung 55-inch The Frame LS03F QLED 4K TV — $697.99 $1,097.99 (save $400)
Samsung 65-inch The Frame LS03F QLED 4K TV — $897.99 $1,497.99 (save $600)

Replace these 4 popular Docker containers before they become security risks
Open-source is a promise, not a guarantee. And if you've been homelabbing long enough, there's a good chance that you're running some stale, unmaintained Docker containers. While these containers may be safe to use in the short term, they do pose some long-term risk (or may simply break at some point), so you should disable or replace them as soon as you can.

Sony headphones are hitting record lows on October Prime Day: Shop XM6, XM5, and budget headphones
You might not have felt ready for the holiday shopping season, which has kicked off with Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days — aka October Prime Day — but we know what you are ready for: an upgraded set of headphones.
Audio and noise-cancellation technology advances so quickly that new headphone models come out thick and fast, sounding better all the time.
If you're in the market for an upgrade but you don't know where to start, Sony is arguably the best all-rounder brand, delivering the best sound you'll find in everyday headphone tech and some of the most effective noise cancellation that money can buy.
SEE ALSO: Amazon announces dates for Prime Big Deal Days, its 48-hour 'October Prime Day' saleThey don't come cheap, of course, which is why October Prime Day is a can't-miss opportunity to pick up an excellent pair of Sony cans at an also-excellent price. Price drops may continue as the 48-hour sale rolls on (it runs Oct. 6-7), but we've already spotted great deals on a selection of key Sony models, including some all-time record lows.
Standouts include flagship Sony WH-1000XM6 returning to its lowest-ever price, as well as a new record price on the earbuds. And if you're specifically wanting noise cancellation, the previous-gen Sony WH-1000XM5 gives you the most bang for your buck, with a massive $200-plus discount and ANC that's as good as the upgraded model. That's another all-time low price, by the way.
Keep checking back for updates, but for now these are the best Sony headphones deals for Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days.

The Sony WH-1000XM6 is the latest iteration of Sony's flagship line and pretty much the best of the best. Sony's noise cancellation is a class leader, and these offer its best ever performance, adapting to external noise in real-time and ensuring you're immersed in your tunes to a level that suits you. For instance, Auto Ambient Sound Mode keeps you in tune with your surroundings, or you can adjust the ANC levels in the Sound Connect.
That noise-canceling tech combines with detailed, finely engineered audio — the signature sound that marks Sony as the standout name in consumer audio technology (for audiophile quality sound, you can get $51.99 off the Sony 1000X The Collexion headphones).
The current discounted price of $378 is the lowest the Sony WH-1000XM6 has been priced at since June. We don't expect them to drop any lower just yet, so now's the time to grab them.

Samsung is wasting "Conversations," the Android feature I love on my Pixel
As much as I want to like Galaxy phones, Samsung makes some software decisions that I just don't get. This is particularly true when it comes to notifications. One of my favorite conversation features on Pixel phones is technically present on Galaxy phones, but Samsung broke it.
