One of the best Dyson Airwrap dupes Ive tried is at its lowest price ever during the final hours of October Prime Day
Save 21%: As of Oct. 8, the T3 Aire 360 is down to a new record low price of $236.99. This deal shaves $63 off the multi-styler, which usually goes for $299.99.
T3 Aire 360 $299.99 at AmazonGet Deal
As Mashable's shopping reporter on the Dyson beauty beat, I'm always looking for hidden gem dupes, and when it comes to the Dyson Airwrap, the T3 Aire 360 is one of the best.
While not as popular as the original Airwrap or the Shark FlexStyle, T3's multi-styler brings two major pros: its ceramic barrels help create the longest-lasting curls, and the storage pouch is the best option available for anyone who travels often or is limited on storage space. And best of all, the T3 Aire 360 is down to a new record-low price during the final hours of Prime Big Deal Days on Oct. 8, clocking in at just $236.99 — $63 cheaper than its $299.99 list price.
Prior to this October Prime Day deal, we'd only seen it get down to $249.99.
SEE ALSO: 200+ October Prime Day deals: Last call for savings on Apple, Kindle, Sony, Ninja, and LegoCompared to the original Airwrap and other dupes, the Aire 360 is admittedly more limited on the attachment options, with just two curling barrels (one for each direction), a round brush, and a standard dryer head. If you anticipate most wanting a multi-styler for drying and curling hair, I see this more limited selection as a bonus — instead of a massive case that you get with the Airwrap, the Aire 360 comes with a smaller pouch that's a much more convenient storage solution.
As I mentioned above, the curls are also more defined and longer-lasting. Most curling attachments I've tried are curly at first, but fall to a more blown-out look relatively quick. The Aire 360, on the other hand, creates a loose wave style (which I imagine on hair that holds curls well, would be more of a true curl).
All said, the Aire 360 is maybe the most underrated Dyson dupe on the market, even at full price, making this deal especially worth checking out.
Our favorite budget headphones are 50% off in this last chance Prime Day deal
SAVE $40: The already discounted JLab JBuds Lux ANC headphones just got another price cut. In the final hours of the Prime Big Deal Days, Amazon slashed the price on the headphones down to $39.99, making them 50% off and saving you $40.

We're in the final hours of Prime Big Deal Days, aka October Prime Day, and even though there are just hours left in the sale, we're still deal hunting. Even though the sale is about to wrap up, Amazon is still dropping deals. We're keeping an eye on our favorite products — and their prices — for any exciting last-minute savings to be had. The latest deal we found is on the JLab JBuds Lux ANC headphones.
For most of Prime Day, the JLab JBuds Lux ANC headphones have been hovering around $46, a pretty good deal, saving almost $35 on the headphones. But Amazon has knocked the price down even more, and the JLab JBuds Lux headphones are now just $39.99, bringing them to 50% off.
This deal is only on the mauve color, so if you're picky about colors and this shade isn't your thing, then you'll have to pay a little more. But if you're into the mauve, then this deal is not to be missed.
The JLab JBuds Lux ANC headphones are our favorite budget headphones. They deliver impressive active noise cancellation, multi-point pairing, and spatial audio. You may need to mess around with the EQ to find your preferred setting, but otherwise, you'll be pleased with the well-rounded sound they deliver.
Nearly all Loop earplugs are on sale during October Prime Day
Whether you're trying to protect your hearing during a concert or protect your focus in a noisy environment, Loop earplugs have become a popular option — and after testing them out for ourselves, we see why.
Though they offer a degree of convenience as reusable earplugs, they can also induce a bit of sticker shock, especially when compared to disposable foam earplugs. That's what makes this October Prime Day a great time to pick up Loop earplugs — especially as four different types are on sale. (The only ones we didn't spot on sale from their main lineup were sleep-specific Loop Dream earplugs).
SEE ALSO: What is Prime Big Deal Days? Everything to know about day 2 deals live nowSo, which Loop earplug deals are available? We broke it down below. If you're interested, you'll want to shop sooner rather than later — Prime Big Deal Days is only on through 11:59 p.m. PST on Oct. 8 (or 2:59 a.m. on Oct. 9, for anyone on the east coast).
Best Loop Experience 2 deal Loop Experience 2 $38.95 at AmazonGet Deal Why we like it
Mashable's Haley Henschel took the Loop Experience 2 earplugs along with her to Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter tour, and found that they did exactly the job she needed them to: "By the end of the night," she wrote, "I had two very sore feet but two very happy ears — no tinnitus, no headaches." Though they kept the volume down, Henschel wrote that the music still came through with perfect clarity. Add in the fact that they're cute, comfy, and have a convenient keychain case. It's clear why these earplugs are slowly becoming a concert staple.
Best Loop Engage 2 deal Loop Engage 2 $35.95 at AmazonGet Deal Why we like it
If the idea of lowering the volume in day-to-day life while still keeping you aware of the world is appealing, these are the Loop earplugs for you. The Engage 2 block up to 16 decibels of noise. When I tested them out, I found that it was easy to keep up a conversation, even in a noisier setting, but that background noise felt dimmed.
Best Loop Quiet 2 deal Loop Quiet 2 $14.49 at Amazon$20.95 Save $6.46 Get Deal Why we like it
If you want to hear much less of the world around you and be more dialed in on the task in front of you, the Loop Quiet 2 are your best bet. These earplugs block up to 24 decibels of noise, and truly compared to noise-cancelling earbuds when I tested them out. While you do lose the ability to stream audio, I found that helpful in not accidentally getting distracted by my devices. And, they can double comfortably as sleep earplugs. Plus, at $14.49, these are the cheapest Loop earplugs available during Prime Big Deal Days.
Best Loop Switch 2 deal Loop Switch 2 $44.95 at Amazon$59.95 Save $15 Get Deal Why we like it
For anyone who finds themselves caught between all of the above options, the Loop Switch 2 are the most versatile earplugs available from the brand. With a small on-ear switch, these earplugs offer three levels of blockage at 20dB, 23dB, and 26db. They do have a harder exterior that doesn't make them great for sleep, but for pretty much any other situation, these earplugs will do the trick. Their versatility does come with a cost — at full price, they're $59.95. However, their Prime Day pricing brings them down to a more manageable $44.95.
We tracked down 5 content creator-approved deals live during October Prime Day
These days, all you really need to create content is a phone.
That said, investing in your setup can upgrade the quality of your content. While that doesn't necessarily require spending hundreds of dollars — you can grab an Octobuddy phone case for under $20 — costs can add up quickly.
That's what makes sales like October Prime Day an opportune time to pick up new gear, whether it be an upgraded mic, new light, or camera. Admittedly, sorting through the mountain of deals that are live can get overwhelming, which is why we used our combined expertise of deals and what gadgets creators use to track down five of the best creator-approved deals live during Prime Big Deal Days.
There are still a few hours left to shop Prime Big Deal Days and, luckily, all of our creator-approved deals are still live. Check them out below:
Octobuddy phone case Credit: OctobuddyChances are, you've probably already seen the phone accessory that The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' Whitney Leavitt and TikTok creator Tess Gigone both cited as an essential tool in their content creation kit. The Octobuddy's popularity makes sense — the suction cups basically give you the option to turn anything into a phone stand. While the classic model isn't on sale (yet), the slightly larger MAX Octobuddy is a few bucks off.
Octobuddy Classic MAX $13.59 at Amazon$16.99 Save $3.40 Get Deal DJI Mic Mini Credit: DJI
If you've been on TikTok lately, you've almost certainly seen DJI's tiny mic, aptly named the DJI Mic Mini. We tested it out for ourselves, and were impressed by the jump in audio quality, range of customization, and ease of use (our social media team even used it to interview VidCon's Hall of Fame inductees). Great audio can elevate content, and though that can be pricey, this deal drops this mic (which comes with two transmitters and one receiver) to just $79 — its lowest price ever.
DJI Mic Mini $79 at Amazon$119 Save $40 Get Deal A comfortable pair of headphones Credit: Bose
YouTuber Nicole Rafiee told Mashable the Bose QuietComfort headphones are her "true ride or die." While she uses the older model (the QuietComfort 45), the QuietComfort headphones retain the excellent padding, great sound quality, and impressive ANC found on the older headphones. And on sale, they're just $230.
Bose QuietComfort headphones $199 at Amazon$349 Save $150 Get Deal The Alix Earle light
TikTok creator Sa Nguyen and creator Brooke Ashley Hall both told Mashable they use the clip-on found light made famous by Alix Earle in 2022. Hall said to Mashable, "We've had it forever, but it's the one that clips on the front of your phone. It's great that [Alix Earle] made it so popular." Though the light is already relatively affordable at full price, its Prime Big Deal Day price brings it down to just $20.39.
Newmowa LED light clip $20.39 at Amazon$29.99 Save $9.60 Get Deal A camera with a great built-in mic
A good camera can easily cost over $1,000, but one of the two cameras creator Nicole Laneo uses (outside of her phone) sits just under that price point at full price. Thankfully, it's also on sale during October Prime Day, putting it at a slightly more accessible $899. It's not an upgrade for the casual creator, but if you're serious about having some high-quality footage — and are interested in the built-in three-microphone array Laneo cites as one of her favorite specs, this deal could be worth checking out.

Im wary of buying sex toys on Amazon, but this last-chance Satisfyer deal is too good to ignore
Here's something you probably know (or maybe don't know): Amazon's Prime Day doesn't officially support deals on sexual health and wellness products. You won't see them advertised on the homepage. But that doesn't mean the deals don't exist. If you know where to look, you can still snag some "Prime Day-esque" deals on tons of great toys.
SEE ALSO: When does October Prime Day end? You're running out of time to shop for Amazon deals.Now, I'm a stickler for this stuff. I usually advise against buying sex toys on Amazon due to issues with counterfeits and questionable third-party sellers. But for the final hours of Prime Day, I'm making an exception for Satisfyer. It's a legit brand with a real legacy, especially when it comes to its suction toys.
Because of Amazon's category restrictions, you won't see a big "SALE" banner on Satisfyer's product pages. Instead, the brand is offering exclusive discount codes and other promotions that run through Oct. 11.
Best Satisfyer deal overall Opens in a new window Credit: Satisfyer Satisfyer Pro 2 $39.66 at Amazon$49.58 Save $9.92 Get 20% off with code FALLPRIME20 Get Deal Why we like it
The Satisfyer Pro 2 is designed specifically for people who prefer clitoral stimulation over penetration, using what the brand calls "Airpulse technology" to create touch-free pressure waves. So there's nothing actually touching your clitoris — it's just light, little puffs of air. (There are 11 pressure settings that can get intense quick!)
With over 59,000 reviews on Amazon, the Pro 2 is a true cult classic. It's not my personal favorite (I own it in rose gold and blue; and it gets me there, but I have other toys in my arsenal that I prefer over this one), but I'm not here to yuck anyone's yum — and the sheer volume of glowing, and some totally hilarious, reviews speaks for itself. Seriously, if you need a laugh, go read them.
Now through Oct. 11, you can use the code FALLPRIME20 to get 20% off and find out what all the hype is about.

My favorite yellow headphones are even cheaper than last Prime Day
SAVE $36.99: The Sony WH-CH520 headphones are down to $33 in the butter yellow color ($38 in other colorways). That's a 53% discount on the $69.99 MSRP.
Opens in a new window Credit: Sony Sony WH-CH520 headphones $33 at Amazon$69.99 Save $36.99 Get Deal
During July's Prime Day, I could not shut up about the butter yellow Sony WH-CH520 headphones. The color is stunning, and the $38 sale price was too good to pass up. Now, during Prime Big Deal Days, my beloved yellow headphones are down to an even lower $33. If you want to get them at this price, you'll have to act fast, though, as we're coming into the final hours of Amazon's sale, which ends at 11:59 p.m. PT on Oct. 8 (2:59 a.m. ET on Oct. 9).
I, of course, bought myself a pair in July (even though I test audio products for a living and literally have five premium noise-cancelling headphones sitting in my home office). I use them as my everyday headphones when I don't care to fully block out the world. They're an awesome pair of cheap headphones that I don't have to be too precious with. (I also influenced my mom to buy the pink pair.)
SEE ALSO: Long-term review: Sony's WH-CH520 are the best headphones under $50 — periodBecause of the on-ear design, you're not going to get superb noise cancellation (there's no ANC on these cans), but they do a surprisingly good job of passively blocking noise. I took these on a flight and was able to comfortably block out the passengers around me.
I could ramble on about these, but I'll just say that three months later, I'm still stoked about my purchase, and I'm jealous of everyone who gets to buy the gorgeous butter yellow Sony headphones for even cheaper during Prime Big Deal Days.
Prime Days best outdoor deals from Yeti, Coleman, and Jackery end tonight

This is your last opportunity to grab these deals before they're gone.
Below, you'll find the best outdoor deals you can still grab before Prime Day ends tonight.
Best October Prime Day outdoor gear deal overall Opens in a new window Credit: Anker Anker Solix C1000 $379 at Amazon$799 Save $420 Get Deal Why we like it
Going camping with a portable power station in tow is arguably more important than the hot dogs or the firewood. A portable power station gives you the ability to keep your phones charged, the mood-setting lights on, and even power a coffee maker if you brought one along. The Prime Day sale price of $379 is a new record-low, beating the previous all-time low of $429.
In our testing, the Anker Solix C1000 is the best overall portable power station, packing in a nice 1,056Wh of capacity. That's enough to keep everyone happily charged up for several days. Plus, it only takes 58 minutes of charging time to get back to full capacity on the power station.
Best October Prime Day hydration deal Opens in a new window Credit: LifeStraw LifeStraw Personal Water Filter $9.45 at Amazon$14.95 Save $5.50 Get Deal Why we like it
A LifeStraw Personal Water Filter is an essential if you're heading out on a hike. Even if you pack along an Owala water bottle, you never know what might happen, and the LifeStraw ensures you'll be able to filter and drink clean water from practically any water source. It's also a great idea to add one to your emergency kit at home. LifeStraw is a classic Prime Day item that's always worth scoring.

Mashable readers know best — heres what our readers bought during October Prime Day
All day, we're here writing about the best deals to shop during Prime Big Deal Days, but we often wonder if our top picks resonate with our readers. Luckily, we have data to tell us what Mashable reader's are actually buying.
The list doesn't entirely surprise us. Our readers are into the classic deals like Apple AirTags, Crest 3D WhiteStrips, and Lifestraws, but there are a few things that surprise us on the list.
If you're still shopping on day two of October Prime Day, look to what our readers are buying for some guidance. Here are the 20 most popular items Mashable readers bought during October Prime Day.
Apple AirTags Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple AirTag 4-pack $64.99 at Amazon$99 Save $34.01 Get Deal
We're not surprised to see Apple AirTags topping the list of items our readers bought during Prime Big Deal Days. These Bluetooth trackers work seamlessly within the iOS system, are not just travel essentials. They help you keep track of important items like your keys or wallet, perfect for the absent-minded among us.
The 4-pack of Apple AirTags are basically at their lowest price ever at $64.99 (technically their lowest was $64.49, but who's counting 50 cents?) That saves you $34.01, making each AirTag $16.25.
M4 MacBook Air Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M4, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD) $799 at Amazon$999 Save $200 Get Deal
When the 13-inch Apple MacBook Air dropped back down to $799 — its lowest price ever — Mashable readers jumped to buy the laptop. It's one of the best deals during October Prime Day, offering exceptional speed thanks to the M4 chip, for under $1,000.
Beats Pill x Kim Kardashian Opens in a new window Credit: Beats Beats Pill x Kim Kardashian $49.99 at Amazon$149.95 Save $99.96 Get Deal
One of the absolute best deals during October Prime Day was on the Beats Pill x Kim Kardashian. It dropped down to $49.99, its lowest price ever, saving 67% off its $149.95 list price. Readers jumped at the deal, grabbing the speaker and saving $99.96. Unfortunately, it was so popular that it sold out. It's still on sale, but for a price of $118.95, which admittedly, isn't nearly as exciting as $50.

Crest 3D Whitestrips are a Prime Day classic. They're a bathroom cabinet staple, but at their list price of $45.99, they're expensive to restock. But when they're down to $29.99, they're a much better value.

One deal that our readers went crazy for is on Shark's cordless pet vacuum. This deal was so popular that it sold out (sad), but then reappeared as back in stock (yay). Since there's no telling what the last few hours of October Prime Day will bring, hop on this deal soon before it vanishes again.
Why Sega’s $70 Million Flop Is the Best Game of All Time
In late 1999, after spending $70 million developing what was then the most expensive game ever made, SEGA released Shenmue for the Dreamcast. Though the world was a better place for it, the game did not recover its development costs, nor did it get the audience it deserved.
Amazon’s get 3 for the price of 2 sale is the sneaky savings trick you’ll want to use before Prime Day ends
If you’ve been lurking on Amazon during the new Prime Day sale, thinking the bargains aren't big enough, the retailer quietly dropped a ‘3 for 2’ promo that's easy to miss.
Just in time for the Prime Big Deal Days sale’s final day, this is a deceptively simple offer that can lead to huge savings across books, music, DVDs, toys, and more, but there’s a little strategy involved if you want to make the most of it.
This “Get 3 for the price of 2” deal at Amazon during Prime Big Deal Days is refreshingly straightforward: add three eligible items to your cart, and the cost of the cheapest one is automatically deducted at checkout; that’s in addition to any Prime Day price drops these items already have.
That means if you pick up Atomic Habits (now $15.39 instead of $27), The Secret of Secrets ($22.80 instead of $38), and Regretting You ($12.95 instead of $14.95), your total will be discounted by $12.95 (the cheapest item of the three) when you hit checkout.
SEE ALSO: 200+ October Prime Day deals: We found record savings on Apple, Kindle, Sony, Ninja, and LegoThe catch that you need to look out for, though, is that the discount doesn’t appear until the final screen, right under your total; so don’t panic if you don’t see it upfront.
Here’s how to claim in three easy steps:
Add any three qualifying products to your cart (look for items sold by Amazon.com).
Go to your cart and proceed to checkout.
The lowest-priced item becomes free — automatically.
An important tip to remember is that since Amazon always subtracts the cheapest item, stick with three products of similar price to maximize your savings. If you’re buying a bunch of things at various prices, it could be worth breaking your haul into separate groups of three (with similar-priced items in each) instead of one giant order.

Film fans, for instance, can grab Blu-Rays like Alien, Deadpool & Wolverine, and Oppenheimer — three stellar movies that are even better when you get one of them for free.
Music lovers can score classics like Abbey Road by The Beatles, Rumours by Fleetwood Mac, and The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill on vinyl.
For readers, the book selection is stacked as well: The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins, Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir (which is worth reading before the movie starring Ryan Gosling comes out next year), and The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt all qualify. Kids’ favorites like The Very Hungry Caterpillar and Room on the Broom are also part of the mix.
Toys are in on the fun, too — with big-name brands like Lego, Hasbro, and Melissa & Doug appearing across the promotion page.
Running for a limited time during Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, the 3 for 2 deal only applies to products sold directly by Amazon — so no third-party sellers — and it excludes digital content, too. As always, quantities are limited, so once a hot title sells out, it’s gone.

For plenty of folks, vacuuming is a dreaded chore. For those people, a robot vacuum can be a lifesaver. For others, vacuuming is kind of enjoyable. If you cannot fathom getting enjoyment out of vacuuming, perhaps you haven't yet experienced the convenience of a cordless stick model. If that's the case, or if you simply need a new vacuum, check out this incredible deal.
As of Oct. 8, the Shark Pet Cordless vacuum is back in stock and on sale during Amazon Prime Day for $149, down from the list price of $299.99. That's a 50% discount that shaves a massive $150.99 off the price. It also happens to match the lowest price ever at Amazon.
The Shark Pet Cordless vacuum is one of Mashable readers' favorite Prime Day deals. It was so popular that we watched it sell out at Amazon. But we're all in luck because the deal is back for the last handful of hours during October Prime Day. Will it last? Who knows, so jump on it soon if you're interested.
SEE ALSO: I'm a pro vacuum tester, and all of my favorite robot vacuums are on sale for October Prime DayGetting up to 40 minutes of runtime, the Shark Pet is the perfect model for those who deal with stubborn pet hair getting stuck to furniture. But it's also awesome if you have a home full of hardwood floors and no pets. Its LED headlight is a joy for noticing and then sucking up any dust, debris, or spills, and it comes with great attachments like a crevice tool.
The Shark Pet Cordless Vacuum weighs about seven pounds, so it's easy to maneuver around the house. The extra-large dust cup also adds convenience.
Before the stock disappears again, snag the Shark Pet Cordless Vacuum and perhaps shift vacuuming from chores you hate to chores you don't really mind. For the sale price of $149, it's worth trying.

No Other Choice trailer: Park Chan-wooks latest is a black comedy about capitalism and murder
Job hunts can be murder. Literally, in the case of Park Chan-wook's upcoming film, No Other Choice.
The heralded South Korean director of Oldboy, The Handmaiden, and Decision to Leave returns with a black comedy all about the perils of capitalism, and the lengths people will go to to survive in an uncaring system.
SEE ALSO: 2025 fall movie preview: Every upcoming film you ought to know aboutAdapted from Donald E. Westlake's 1997 horror novel The Ax, No Other Choice stars Squid Game's Lee Byung-hun as Man-su. He's a happy family man with a steady job, but his whole world gets thrown into chaos when his employer abruptly lays him off. Man-su may have 25 years of job experience, but that doesn't mean much in a stagnating job market.
When a solid opportunity comes along, Man-su is desperate not to miss his shot at employment. His surefire plan to get the job? Take out all the other candidates. Permanently.
No Other Choice's trailer offers up morsels of Man-su's grisly murder methods, showcasing him wielding a gun, a chainsaw, and even a potted plant against the people who stand between him and a job.
No Other Choice has made the festival rounds this fall, positioning it as a potential awards contender. Following its premiere at the Venice International Film Festival, it played at the Toronto International Film Festival, Busan Film Festival, and New York Film Festival. It garnered positive buzz and critical acclaim out of each, and even won the inaugural International People's Choice Award at TIFF. Could Park's film make a splash come awards season?
October Prime Day: The Hisense Canvas art TV is significantly cheaper than The Frame in every size
SAVE UP TO $498: As of Oct. 8, every size of the Hisense Canvas art TV is on sale at Amazon for Prime Big Deal Days. The best discounts are 30% off the 55-inch Canvas and 28% off the 75-inch Canvas.
Opens in a new window Credit: Hisense 55-inch through 85-inch Hisense Canvas 4K QLED Art TV Starting at $695.99 (up to 30% off) Get DealAny time Samsung's The Frame goes on sale during a big internet sale event, it's automatically one of our favorite TV deals. But even with some sizes at 50% off for Prime Big Deal Days, I still wouldn't necessarily call The Frame budget-friendly. For everyone looking for an art TV that's even more affordable, Amazon also has the Hisense Canvas on sale.
Each 2025 Hisense Canvas TV is significantly cheaper than every respective Frame TV between 55 and 85 inches. The 30% off discount on the 55-inch Canvas and the 28% discount on the 75-inch Canvas are the best deals of the bunch. Here are the exact numbers for comparison's sake:
55-inch Hisense Canvas TV — $695.99 $999.99 (save $304) vs. the 55-inch Samsung The Frame on sale for $974.95 or $797.99 for the 2024 model
65-inch Hisense Canvas TV — $998 $1,199.99 (save $201.99) vs. the 65-inch Samsung The Frame on sale for $1,357.99 or $1,197.96 for the 2024 model
75-inch Hisense Canvas TV — $1,299.99 $1,797.99 (save $498) vs. the 75-inch Samsung The Frame on sale for $1,699.99 at Samsung, sold out at Amazon
85-inch Hisense Canvas TV — $1,997.99 $2,097.99 (save $100) vs. the 85-inch Samsung The Frame on sale for $3,297.99 or $2,737.99 for the 2024 model
(The Canvas doesn't come in a 43-inch model, so The Frame wins by default there.)
Note that, depending on your location, certain models may show as "Temporarily out of stock" on Amazon, so if the one you want is available, it's worth jumping on it quickly.
Deputy shopping editor Miller Kern has a Hisense Canvas TV hanging in a gallery wall of actual framed art, and this thing is chic. "The CanvasTV has a matte finish that makes it look less like a TV and more like a giant picture frame. It's not totally glare-proof, but it does look really nice whether the TV is on or off. The TV itself looks stupid good in a gallery wall and really does blend in with other artwork and wall hangings, especially in art mode." As a QLED TV, the Hisense Canvas will do its best work while watching or displaying in daylight. If you're upgrading from a plain ol' LED TV, you'll notice the difference in brightness and color saturation immediately.
SEE ALSO: If dark scenes are too dark on your TV, play around with these settingsThe option for a non-Samsung art TV is great news for people who don't vibe with Samsung's... unique smart TV interface. "I'm a big fan of the TV's Google interface and find it way more intuitive and responsive than Samsung's," Miller told me.
Each Hisense Canvas TV comes with an ultra-slim magnetic teak frame that you can click on or off, depending on how far you want to stray from the tech-y TV look. The included wall mount can be pushed in further than a typical TV mount, letting the TV lie flush with the wall for a more realistic framed art look.
The best Apple Watch deals for Prime Day include a massive bargain
Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days sale may be starting to wind down, but the Apple Watch deals still up for grabs are well worth scooping up. Not only are older models marked down up to $170, but Amazon is also pricing starting models $10 lower than Apple.
Right now, you can grab the Apple Watch Series 10 with cellular connectivity for an impressive $170 off (putting it down to the same price as its non-cellular counterpart). That deal is still live now as part of Prime Big Deal Days and is joined by several Apple Watch deals that you're not going to want to miss.
SEE ALSO: Amazon's October Prime Day is coming on October 7 — here are 30+ early deals to shop nowMore interested in the newer models? No problem — the Series 11 has a small $10 price cut. On a budget? The second-generation SE watches are both below $200. Plus, we finally spotted a deal on the Apple Watch Ultra 3 and Ultra 2 that you won't want to miss.
Note: Deals marked with a 🔥 denote an all-time low price.

Check out our full review of the Apple Watch Series 10.
The Series 10 offers lightning-fast battery charging; fitness sensors like heart rate monitoring, temperature sensing, and depth gauges; and, in this model, cellular capability for the cost of the non-cellular models out there. The $170 price cut marks an all-time low for this watch, which earlier this week was priced at $429. Most times, we anticipate that the best deals will come during the actual days of the sale, but this is one of those cases where we'd be surprised if the price dips any lower, making it a great grab for an early deal.

Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold review: I think Samsung takes this round
Google chose the wrong year to focus on incremental upgrades for its flagship foldable.
In the abstract, there's nothing wrong with that. There are only so many things you can do to improve phones on an annual basis, and last year's Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold was, at the time, one of the best foldables money could buy. Alas, 2025 is not 2024. This year's edition, the $1,799 Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold, looks and feels nearly identical from a hardware perspective, instead focusing on AI features that may or may not wet your whistle, and don't really feel new given that they were already present in the Pixel 10.
Pixel 10 Pro Fold does curry plenty of favor thanks to solid displays, long battery life, and the same Google photography magic you get with other Pixel phones. But for my money, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7's remarkably thin and light form factor makes that device much more pleasing to use.
The 2025 version of the foldable fight goes to Samsung.
Pixel 10 Pro Fold: Specs Big ol' screen. Credit: Joe Maldonado/MashableBefore we get into the nitty gritty details, here are the basic specs for the Pixel 10 Pro Fold:
6.4-inch outer display with 1080x2364 resolution and 60-120Hz adaptive refresh rate
8-inch inner display with 2076x2152 resolution and 1-120Hz adaptive refresh rate
Google Tensor G5 chip
16GB RAM
256GB/512GB/1TB storage
5,015mAh battery
It's not super different from the Pixel 9 Pro Fold in these terms, but there are some differences worth noting. For starters, the 1TB storage option is new, and very welcome. I noted in my review for the Pixel 9 Pro Fold that it's bizarre for such a premium (read: expensive) device to top out at 512GB of internal storage, so I'll give Google props for addressing that.
The new Tensor G5 chip is the same as the one in the other Pixel 10 phones, and we'll talk performance in a bit. Aside from that, RAM is the same and the display sizes are very similar, with the outer display being just one tenth of an inch bigger than last year's. One thing that's nice here is that both displays have 3,000 nits of peak brightness, an upgrade over the 2,700 nits you'd find in the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. It's a better device for using in sunny conditions outside because of that.
The battery has also gotten a boost from 4,650mAh to 5,015mAh, but again, we'll save analysis for later.
SEE ALSO: Are foldable phones worth buying in 2025? As a tech editor, I say heck yes. Pixel 10 Pro Fold: Design I don't much care for this color. Credit: Joe Maldonado/MashableGoogle really didn't get very ambitious with the Pixel 10 Pro Fold's physical design, which is the source of my greatest disappointment with the device.
Put simply, it looks and feels a lot like the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. At a glance, you'd barely be able to tell the two apart. It only comes in two boring colors (Moonstone and Jade), as well. It's also got the same weird silhouette as the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, where some of the corners are rounded and others are hard 90-degree angles. I actually find it sort of difficult to grip in certain circumstances; trying to use it in its folded state while lying flat on my back in bed, for instance, is a chore, as it likes to slip out of my hands.
To be fair, I praised last year's model for its physical design because, at the time, it was about as thin and light as foldables got. That is no longer the case. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is remarkably svelte, coming in at 8.9mm of thickness when folded and just 4.2mm when unfolded. Pixel 10 Pro Fold, meanwhile, is 10.8mm folded and 5.2mm unfolded. That's a really serious and immediately noticeable difference.
Left: The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold Credit: Joe Maldonado / Mashable Right: The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 Credit: Joe Maldonado / MashablePut simply, Samsung's phone just feels a lot better to use on a moment-to-moment basis because of its form factor. What Google did here isn't bad, necessarily, but it does feel notably inferior to its main source of competition in the U.S.
Aside from that, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold's displays are both very nice and good for use in a variety of situations thanks to their new boosted peak brightness. I still think an unfolded tablet-style foldable is the very best way to watch YouTube videos on the go, and that hasn't changed here.
Pixel 10 Pro Fold: Performance It's perfectly usable when folded. Credit: Joe Maldonado/MashablePut succinctly, the Tensor G5 chip powering the Pixel 10 Pro Fold does what you want it to do. This phone performs nearly flawlessly in everyday testing. Apps load quickly and it doesn't ever hitch or buckle when there's a lot going on. I also never noticed any kind of heat problems during use, so you can probably survive without putting a case on the Pixel 10 Pro Fold. You might want one just for some more interesting color options, though.
Unfortunately, the Geekbench 6 app that we use for benchmarking isn't available on Pixel 10 Pro Fold at the time of publication, so we can't provide any kind of real numbers-based analysis here. But this feels like a premium handset when it comes to performance, I can promise you that.
Sadly, there aren't really any revolutionary new software features this year that I could find. Pixel 10 Pro Fold has the exact same suite of AI features as the other Pixel 10 phones. That includes good and useful ones, such as live language translation during phone calls and Magic Cue, which scans your data for relevant information (such as flight info or a restaurant reservation) and surface said information when you might need it, such as during phone calls or text chats.
It also includes the ones I don't like so much, such as text-based image editing and that thing where you can show objects to Gemini using the phone's camera and learn more about said object. These are not things I ever plan on using, but your mileage may vary. At any rate, these don't work any differently on Pixel 10 Pro Fold than they did on Pixel 10, so there isn't a lot else to say about them.
To its credit, Pixel 10 Pro Fold does bring back all of the foldable features Google has been building out over the years, such as multitasking on the inner screen. That's eminently useful, and only becomes more-so with the ability to drag and drop things like images from one app to another. Multitasking is extremely intuitive to the point where you don't even really need a tutorial to figure it out. That said, it was that way last year, too, so this isn't necessarily novel.
Pixel 10 Pro Fold: Battery life Credit: Joe Maldonado/MashableThere's one area where the Pixel 10 Pro Fold's thicker form factor benefits it versus the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, and that's battery life.
Google rates this device for about 30 hours of use on a charge, and that's about what I got out of it. I actually had a pretty difficult time getting the battery to fully drain without resorting to cheap tricks like streaming video for hours at a time. When just using it as a regular phone (for web browsing, social media, and the occasional YouTube video) I was able to get more than a day's worth of use out of it.
Compare that to the Z Fold 7, and Samsung looks a little worse. That phone doesn't last for more than 24 hours or so in my experience, so Google wins on battery life, if nothing else.
Pixel 10 Pro Fold: CamerasAs is usually the case with Pixel phones, the cameras here are more than adequate. That said, they don't seem terribly different from last year. On top of that, they're actually a step down from the Pixel 10 Pro — a significant step down. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold doesn't support 8K video, lacks the 100x Pro Res Zoom, and has far fewer megapixels.
Here are the specs:
Rear cameras: 48MP wide, 10.5MP ultrawide, 10.8MP telephoto with 5x optical zoom
Front camreas: Two 10MP selfie cameras
In terms of megapixels and optical zoom count, these are exactly the same as what Google provided last year. Still, they snap nice pictures anyway thanks to decent specs and Google's signature software wizardry. Being able to use the inner, unfolded display as a huge viewfinder is nice, too.
Fall is finally here in NYC. Credit: Alex Perry/MashableAs always, I like the macro lens for taking close-up pictures of tiny things.
But some flowers are still in bloom. Credit: Alex Perry/MashableNight Sight is still here and still brightens up photos taken in the dark, though I don't think it's noticeably better or worse than before.
No Night Sight. Credit: Alex Perry/Mashable Night Sight. Credit: Alex Perry/MashableThe 5x optical zoom lens does its job admirably well, but the 20x zoom is also pretty good, in my experience. The end results don't look overly fake or smudgy, as they often do on other phones. However, the "eye-popping" 100x zoom on the Pixel 10 Pro is missed.

Portrait mode is good. Credit: Alex Perry/Mashable Pixel 10 Pro Fold: Final verdictThere's nothing really wrong with the Pixel 10 Pro Fold on its merits. Taken on its own, it's basically as good as last year's phone, but with a bigger battery and a stronger chip powering it. And at $1,799, its starting price is $200 cheaper than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7. For that price, we would expect cameras more on par with the Pixel 10 Pro, which starts at $999.
But $200 is frankly not a huge number when you're talking about phones that cost around $2,000. If you're going to spend that much on a flagship foldable, you might as well go for Samsung's phone just because it's so much thinner and more comfortable to use. I hate to hinge so much of my criticism on the physical form factor, but with foldables, that's kind of a big deal. I think Samsung has the foldable to beat so far this year (rumor has it the company still has a tri-fold coming soon). We'll see how it shapes up in 2026.

This is Halloween: Ohio man’s Lego skeleton is almost as tall as a house
High up on the list of things I never knew I wanted was a massive, house-sized Lego skeleton adorning my front yard for Halloween. Alan Perkins, a man (and living Halloween legend) from Olmsted Falls, Ohio, is living that dream after engineering exactly such a skeleton. Perkins' giant Lego skeleton measures over 13-feet tall. And yes, the arms articulate.
This isn't actually the first time Perkins has gone viral for his Halloween displays. When it comes to Halloween decor, he has a history of doing too much.
As the story goes, Perkins wanted to craft a Lego skeleton, which is available in any one of a number of Halloween-themed Lego sets, except he wanted it really big, like, 100 times bigger than what you'd get in a Lego kit. This was no easy task for Perkins, who made several custom tools for the project.
SEE ALSO: Live, laugh, LifeEyes™️: How the 12-foot Home Depot skeleton became a perennial hitThe full tutorial on how to build your own is available at the popular DIY website Instructables, written by Perkins. The process essentially involves custom cutting a bunch of foam shapes, fixing them together with foam spray, attaching all the various parts with wire and PVC, and then finishing the whole thing with sytroplast and a paint job. All told, the cost was around $1,700, although Perkins admits recreating it from scratch would be closer to $2,500.
Perkins is known around the Cleveland area for his lavish Halloween setups. The LEGO skeleton is his latest masterpiece, but a Facebook video of the rest of his yard shows a Halloween wonderland.
Not only did Perkins wind up with arguably the coolest Halloween decoration of all time, but it also got the attention of Lego, which posted his skeleton on Instagram. It has since gone viral, accumulating more than 185,000 likes with many people asking where or how they can obtain one.
In addition, Perkins has partnered with Skeletons of St. Jude, a charity event to raise money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, along with over 650 other houses to collect donations. Visit Skeletons of St. Jude and donate if you wish.
Recreating such a gem of a decoration is no easy task, but you can buy some pretty neat stuff if you don't go the DIY route. Home Depot released its Halloween lineup, which includes its cult-favorite 12-foot skeleton Skelly. It’s not a Lego skeleton, but it’s still pretty cool. Amazon’s Halloween shop is also open for business, which includes a couple of Halloween Lego sets and Nightmare Before Christmas-themed Echo Dot devices.
