One of the great things about consumer tech is that we occasionally get some pretty sweet deals on pretty much anything with a screen and battery—with that in mind, Anker’s got some rather tasty deals for this year’s Amazon Summer Prime Day, and it hasn’t held back given the number of products that are on offer at the moment.

Smartphone and electronics giant Samsung recently announced that it’s been working on its latest Universal Flash Storage (UFS) 5.0 solution, which it says is designed to enable more capable and efficient AI services on future mobile devices. According to the company, the new memory technology greatly reduces latency and speeds up response times when running large language models (LLMs) directly on-device.

It’s finally time—signups are now officially open for Valve’s upcoming Steam Machine, and hopeful buyers have from now until Thursday, June 25th at 10:00 AM (PT) to register for their preferred console configuration. Once the window closes, Valve will randomize the signups to establish a definitive reservation and waitlist order.

Soundbars—they’re undoubtedly a great way to improve your TV’s sound system, and in turn your overall indoor entertainment experience. That said however, they’re often expensive, and sometimes it makes more sense to wait for deals rather than buying a new soundbar outright. This is where the Creative Stage Pro comes in—it’s a feature-packed soundbar that’s also cheaper at the moment, thanks to this Prime Day Deal over on Amazon.

Amazon’s Summer Prime Day Deals are finally here, and with it are tons of sweet tech deals on all your favourite tech brands and hardware.

As such, we’ve put together this handy little list of JLab earbuds and headphones which you might want to add to your shopping list.

Picking a phone usually means picking a budget first. Google’s made that part easier this week by discounting the entire Pixel 10 lineup at once. These Pixel 10 Prime Day deals run from the budget 10a all the way up to the Pro XL. Wherever your number lands, there’s a configuration waiting for you. The Pixel 10a sits at the bottom of the ladder, now $399 instead of $499. It runs on the Tensor G4 chip with 8GB of RAM, and it still gets Gemini and Camera Coach baked in.

Budget laptops already get cheaper every sale season, but Acer’s making sure this one doesn’t slip past you. These Acer Aspire laptop deals are live for Prime Day, and three different Aspire configs are sitting at their lowest prices yet. The Aspire 14 AI (A14-52M-72S0) drops $380 to $599.99. It’s a Copilot+ PC with an Intel Core Ultra 7 Processor 256V. The NPU is rated up to 47 TOPS, and the Intel Arc 140V graphics hit up to 64 TOPS.

If there’s anything that we love about Prime Day, it’s that there’s a ton of deals and discounts across different product categories, from smartphones to computers and tablets, all the way down to home entertainment systems. Speaking of the latter, buyers after a slick way to spice up their indoor (and outdoor) viewing setup might want to check out the Dangbei Mini N2, which is on sale right now thanks to this Prime Day Deal from Amazon.

Motorola quietly dropped some of the best Prime Day deals around, and this year’s lineup covers pretty much every budget. These Motorola Prime Day deals start at the foldable end with the Motorola Razr 2024. It gets a flat $300 cut, bringing it down to $399.99. That’s the same Razr that’s been turning heads for anyone curious about flip phones without flagship pricing. The Motorola Edge 2025 is also part of the sale, down $150 to $399.99.

Game accessory manufacturer GameSir has pretty much made a name for itself thanks to a wide range of gear (such as controllers) designed for different gaming platforms, and buyers who are thinking of getting an Xbox or Windows controller for not much cash might want to check out this Prime Day deal on the GameSir G7 Pro, which comes packed with a ton of features. With that in mind, the Gamesir G7 SE comes with support for Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One consoles, PC, and even Android devices.
