Trumps new White House app is a security and privacy nightmare

Sun, 03/29/2026 - 21:00

President Donald Trump's new White House app is a privacy nightmare for some users.

On Friday, the Trump administration released a new White House mobile app for iOS and Android devices. The official White House account on X shared links to the apps and said that the app would live-stream and provide real-time updates "straight from the source."

One thing they didn't share, however, is that when downloading the app, users are handing over quite a bit of information to the Trump administration.

The White House app requests user permission to access precise locations, network connections, fingerprint and biometric data, the ability to prevent the device from sleeping, and even modify or delete contents of shared storage.

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

X user @Thereallo1026 went so far as decompiling the White House app and found that it's sharing the exact location data of its users every 4.5 minutes and sending that information to a third-party server.

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

The third-party, OneSignal, is a company that provides push notification services. Location data is typically used by OneSignal to push notifications to users for location-based campaigns. While many companies use OneSignal's services, it is particularly concerning for the U.S. government to collect this data through an app that encourages users to report people to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

However, the most concerning part of @Thereallo1026's findings is that the White House app is apparently loading YouTube video embeds via a random GitHub user's personal page. According to the report, if this GitHub user's account is ever compromised, an attacker could "serve arbitrary HTML and JavaScript to every user of this app."

In addition to this major security issue, the in-app web browser on the White House app injects CSS and JavaScript that removes cookie consent prompts, GDPR banners, logins, and paywalls from third-party websites.

So, if for some reason you were compelled to download the new official White House app, be aware of these security and privacy issues.

Soundcore deals rock during Amazons Big Spring Sale

Sun, 03/29/2026 - 20:01
Soundcore deals during Amazon's Big Spring Sale at a glance Best headphones deal Soundcore Space One $69.99 (save $30) Get Deal Best mini speaker deal Soundcore Boom Go 3i $49.99 (save $30) Get Deal Best sleep earbuds deal Soundcore Sleep A20 $119.99 (save $60) Get Deal

If you're not looking to spend $200+ on new headphones or earbuds, Soundcore makes some of your best options. The same is true for portable speakers, sleep earbuds, and even portable projectors. If it has to do with audio, it's likely that Soundcore makes a model that's significantly more affordable than many brands.

The lower price says nothing of the quality. Plenty of our favorite sound-centric tech comes from Soundcore. We also love that Soundcore consistently shows up with epic deals during major sales, and that's exactly the case during the Amazon Big Spring Sale. Here are some excellent Soundcore options to shop before the sale wraps up on March 31.

If you plan on wearing headphones for hours at a time, comfort is gonna be a main priority. Mashable's favorite comfortable headphones that stick to a budget are the Soundcore Space One. "If you want a similar vibe to the Bose QuietComfort Ultras, but don't want to spend over $400, the Anker Soundcore Space One headphones are a great budget alternative. These cans offer comparable features like ANC, an intuitive companion app, a long battery life, and of course, a comfortable form factor that you can wear for long listening sessions," according to our reviewer.

The Amazon Big Spring Sale price of $69.99 matches the lowest we've ever seen on the Soundcore Space One at Amazon, so now is a great time to buy.

Best sleep earbuds deal Opens in a new window Credit: Soundcore Soundcore Sleep A20 $119.99 at Amazon
$179.99 Save $60.00   Get Deal Why we like it

Not many headphone and earbuds brands make a model specifically designed for sleep, but Soundcore has several models that Mashable has loved in testing. The most affordable option is the Soundcore Sleep A20 earbuds. They typically cost $179.99, but during the Amazon sale, they're down to only $119.99.

Mashable Deputy Shopping Editor Miller Kern has found them to be excellent when traveling for masking noise on the plane and for sleeping in Airbnbs across from nightclubs. Her review of the Sleep A20 earbuds praised their comfort and compact size, in addition to excellent performance. She wrote, "They have a 14-hour battery life, so they last through the night — or on a long flight — and the Soundcore app comes loaded with soundscapes and white noise options. The biggest draw for me is how comfortable they are."

Plus, the Soundcore Sleep A20 earbuds also work as standard earbuds, so you can use them for jamming out while commuting to work or for listening to podcasts on a leisurely dog walk.

The sun is rising, flowers are beginning to bloom, and pollen is in the air (so much pollen). This all means spring is finally here, and Amazon is celebrating in its customary fashion: with deals across tons of categories.

We're halfway through the third annual Amazon Big Spring Sale, with discounts set to run through March 31, just like last year. The Amazon Spring Sale is your best chance to save until Prime Day in June (or maybe July?), so don't miss out. The further we get into the sale, prices are frequently fluctuating so we're checking and updating products regularly.

The deals featured in this sale reflect the spirit of the season: Outdoor gear and yard care supplies, spring cleaning supplies, spring fashion, and other household essentials will be the major featured deals. However, there's no shortage of savings on QLED TVs, flagship Sony headphones, Apple devices, Shark and Dyson hair tools, and of course, Amazon devices like Kindles and Echo smart speakers.

According to our review, Apple's AirPods Pro 3 are an "easy buy" if you've been looking for a new pair of AirPods. It's easy to see why: They have excellent ANC, eight hours of listening time per charge, a built-in heart rate monitor, and live translation features. While they hit a lower price of $184 back in February, this markdown is still worth checking out.

The JBuds Lux ANC are the best budget headphones we've tested in recent memory, offering decent noise cancellation, a long battery life, and balanced sound. (Just note that their fit can be hit or miss.) They're a great value at their regular price of $80, but $41.99 is even better during the Big Spring Sale. We saw them dip to $27 at Walmart on Black Friday, but this is their lowest-ever price on Amazon.

And if you're looking to spend a bit more for a more comfortable fit and top-notch ANC, flagship headphones from Apple, Bose, and Sony are all on sale.

Mashable reporter (and dog parent) Tim Marcin called this Shark stick vac "life changing" when he wrote about it for us. Marcin said, "[It's] my personal favorite vacuum — the best I've ever owned — which has made my life much easier. The long and short of it: It's light, super-effective at sucking up fur, affordable, and lasts for quite some time on a charge. It also converts into a hand vacuum when needed."

If you have some spring cleaning to do, select Shark vacuums are 50% to 60% off.

It offers support for Alexa+, HDR10+, Amazon Kids+, Amazon Luna, Xbox Game Pass, and NordVPN, and it's already more than 50% off.

Weighing in at just under 25 pounds, Anker's Solix C1000 Gen 2 portable power station makes an excellent camping companion. The power station can keep your devices juiced up and even has enough oomph to power up some cute fairy lights or whip up a quick meal in the air fryer. It can also recharge in under 50 minutes, which can really come in handy when you're off the grid. Mashable's reviewer called it "the perfect model for taking on a weekend camping trip or keeping around the house for occasional power outages."

The Neo is the perfect starter drone for people just venturing into the drone hobby for the first time — and not just because of the low price.

For creators and hobbyists, it's a great entry point.

There's a reason Samsung has been the most popular TV brand in the world for 20 years in a row: The Korean tech giant makes reliable TVs that last a long time. This QLED Samsung TV was just released in 2025, and for the Amazon Spring Sale, it just got its first big price cut. It's also got a ton of ports and a sleek design.

If you're an on-the-go gamer, the Asus ROG Flow Z13 should make your shortlist. It has a 180Hz display (so smooth), a detachable keyboard, and an AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 chip that offers RTX 4060-level graphics performance.

GTA V star Ned Luke recently told Mashable he uses this gaming laptop when he travels, calling it "an animal." The model with 32GB of RAM and a terabyte of disk space is $330 off on Amazon, and it comes with a free copy of Crimson Desert. It's never been cheaper before. (Best Buy is price-matching it, but doesn't throw in the free game code.)

We're happy to report that the bestselling Ninja Creami is just as great as TikTok says it is. Once you fill and freeze its pints with the base of your choice, "It makes ice cream, gelato, frozen yogurt, sorbet, and smoothie bowls with just the press of a button," writes Mashable's Samantha Mangino.

This TikTok-famous appliance is marked down to $199.99 during the Big Spring Sale (or $30 off), which matches deals at Best Buy, Target, and the SharkNinja website. However, Amazon one-ups them all by throwing in a free $19.96 credit on top of that discount; you save about $50 total there.

The Supersonic Nural's main flex over the regular Supersonic is a system of sensors that automatically lower heat near your head, preventing a sizzling scalp. The Nural can also remember your preferred settings just based on the attachment being used, and knows to pause airflow when you set it down.

From cases to remotes to stands, there are great deals to pair with your new Kindle. If you're looking to up your summer reading game, a remote and stand will craft the coziest reading setup. Plus, our favorite Kindle case, which is rarely on sale, just got marked down.

Here are all of the best e-reader accessories to shop to go with your new Kindle.

My favorite Kindle case, the one that goes on my very own Kindle, is the PopSockets MagSafe case. It's lightweight but protective, so I know my Kindle Paperwhite is protected wherever I take it on the road. Plus, I don't like that the power button sits on the bottom of my Kindle, as it results in a lot of accidental presses. But this case covers it, making it a lot less sensitive. It also has a perfectly placed MagSafe ring for adding a MagSafe PopSockets grip. It's a super strong grip, and my PopSockets grip never falls off.

The thing about the PopSockets Kindle case is that I've never seen it go on sale — until now. Get it now for $34.18, its lowest price ever, which will save you $5.82 off its $40 price tag.

Already have a case? Well, there are plenty of other Kindle accessory deals to explore, too.

Amazons Big Spring Sale has the Soundcore Sleep A30 Special earbuds down to a record-low price

Sun, 03/29/2026 - 18:50

SAVE UP TO $60: The Soundcore Sleep A30 Special earbuds are on sale for $179.99 at Amazon, down from the normal price of $199.99. The older Soundcore Sleep A20 earbuds are on sale for $119.99, down from the list price of $179.99.

Sleep is tricky. We all know we need it, but there are 803 other things we should be doing, and when we do have time to sleep, there tend to be interruptions. If you deal with a snoring partner, noisy neighbors, or find you sleep best with some white, pink, or brown background noise, you might fare well with sleep earbuds. Two of Mashable's favorite models are on sale during the Amazon Big Spring Sale.

The new Soundcore Sleep A30 Special earbuds are on sale for $179.99 at Amazon, down from the normal price of $199.99 for a 10% discount. This sale price marks the lowest we've ever seen at Amazon. The older but still fantastic Soundcore Sleep A20 earbuds are on sale for $119.99, down from the list price of $179.99 for a major 33% discount.

We've all tried to sleep with earbuds in. It's not espeically comfortable. Sleep earbuds use softer materials and a design that's much more friendly for wearing while sleeping. Mashable Deputy Shopping Editor Miller Kern has slept through bumping nightclub noise and red-eye flights thanks to the Soundcore Sleep A20 earbuds. "Soundcore’s Sleep A20s are our favorite budget sleep earbuds. They have a 14-hour battery life, so they last through the night — or on a long flight — and the Soundcore app comes loaded with soundscapes and white noise options. The biggest draw for me is how comfortable they are," wrote Kern.

SEE ALSO: 50+ home deals from Amazon's Big Spring Sale — cooling sheets, air purifiers, and robot vacuums on sale

If you want even better sound-blocking power while sleeping, the Soundcore Sleep A30 Special earbuds come with noise cancellation. Mashable Lead Shopping Reporter Bethany Allard notes this new version marks the best earbuds on the market right now. "Soundcore's quick upgrade to the recently released Sleep A30 earbuds is a welcome one, delivering a longer battery life and lower price point, making a great pair of sleep earbuds even better," she wrote.

In either case, you'll be getting a comfortable pair of earbuds that will help you lull off to sleep and stay asleep regardless of the noise around you. Of course, you can set an alarm to sound in the earbuds, so you won't have to worry about not hearing your phone come morning.

While they're on sale for as low as $119.99, upgrade your sleep with the Soundcore Sleep A20 or A30 Special earbuds. There's no better wellness hack that getting good sleep.

Amazon's Big Spring Sale is live through March 31. This seasonal event ushers in discounts on all sorts of items, giving you an early-year treat before the major sales get going later in the year (like Prime Day). That even includes Apple products, a lot of which have fallen to record-low prices this week.

If you’ve been eyeing an iPad, we've spotted discounts of up to $199.01 across Apple's tablet lineup. The just-updated M4 iPad Air has a small price cut, while its M3 predecessor is nearly $200 off if you opt for a model with cellular connectivity. Some of the latter's configurations are starting to sell out, so don't wait too long to add one to your cart because these tablets are moving fast.

Below, we've rounded up the best live iPad deals so you don't have to go digging through Amazon's listings yourself. Note: Offers marked with a 🔥 have dropped to an all-time low.

As we head into the back half of Amazon's Big Spring Sale, iPad deals are moving quick. Early in the sale, the iPad Air was down to its lowest price ever. While we think it's the best Apple tablet for most people, it's no longer at its lowest price so there are better deals to shop.

Instead, shop the already budget-friendly iPad which is down to $299. That saves you $50 off its $349 list price so for under $300, you're getting a stellar tablet. Is it the best price we've ever seen on the tablet? No, that price would be $271.29 so for right now $299 is pretty good.

But there are plenty of other iPad deals to shop, and we rounded up the best ones.

If you had your eye on the AirPods 4 with ANC, the good news is those are also on sale right now. They are currently marked down to just $149.99 at Amazon, or roughly $30 off their original list price of $179. So no matter which option you choose, you can save some cash right now.

The AirPods Pro 3 are some of our favorite earbuds for Apple users, earning spots on both our lists of the best headphones and best earbuds. Our review had high praise for them, with writer Adam Doud calling them, "a remarkable upgrade in functionality over their predecessors, with better battery life and ANC, as well as a new heart rate sensor."

Boasting great sound quality and noise-cancelling features, alongside a hefty battery life that can last up to eight hours (with ANC) on a single charge, these AirPods are a nice upgrade indeed. Ahead of Amazon's Big Spring Sale, they're marked down to $199.

Premium noise-canceling headphones from brands like Sony and Bose are much better value, but AirPods Max are a popular pick nonetheless. (If nothing else, they're super stylish.) Apple announced the AirPods Max 2 with better ANC and smart features earlier this month, and now the first-gen models with USB-C charging are on sale on Amazon for $449.99. That's about $100 off their regular retail price of $549. But it's just the purple colorway available at this price for now — the other variants have been snapped up already.

Note we've seen these go in and out of stock at Amazon during the Big Spring Sale, so check Target and Walmart if you're not having luck with Amazon.

Amazon's Big Spring Sale is back for its third consecutive year, with deals running across the site through March 31. The retailer began rolling out wide-ranging discounts earlier this week, with more to come as prices drop on such items as robot vacuums, TVs, and your daily essentials. And if there's one thing we can always guarantee, it's that this sale features a raft of much-welcome Apple deals.

Apple has kept us very busy so far in 2026. We've been hard at work testing the first-ever budget Neo MacBook, as well as the upgraded MacBook Airs and MacBook Pros, a new iPad Air, and the iPhone 17e. Next on our Apple to-do list: the upcoming AirPods Max 2.

With so many new Apple products, we're seeing a bunch of first-time discounts during the Amazon Spring Sale, as well as new record-low prices on last-gen models like the Apple Watch SE 2 and M4 MacBook Air. What more could you want from a major sale event? Just keep in mind that many of the older models are selling out fast at Amazon. If the model you want is no longer available, be sure to check the stock at Best Buy and Walmart. These retailers are matching many of the best Spring Sale deals.

We'll be tracking prices on AirPods, MacBooks, and iPads between now and March 31, so keep checking back on this page for info on the lowest-possible prices across Apple products.

We've always been fans of the AirPods Pro, but the third generation really takes them to new heights. Mashable's reviewer called them, "without a doubt, one of the best products of the year" in 2025.

The latest premium buds feature outstanding noise cancellation (twice as good as the Pro 2), a solid eight hours of battery life with ANC on, and new foam-infused tips that come in five sizes to find the perfect fit. Apple also brought the heart rate monitoring tech from the Powerbeats Pro 2 (our favorite earbuds for working out) and Fitness app compatibility to the new AirPods Pro 3, and introduced a live translation feature.

While we've seen the buds drop as low as $184 in the past, this Amazon spring sale discount is still worth grabbing.

This four-pack of Apple's Bluetooth trackers keeps going in and out of stock on Amazon, but luckily, Walmart's stock has stayed consistent. Right now, get a 4-pack of 1st gen AirTags for just $59.99, the lowest price ever on the bundle. You wind up paying just $15 per AirTag. As of March 29, this pack of AirTags is out of stock at Amazon, but still available at Walmart and Best Buy.

Just launched earlier this month, the 13-inch M4 iPad Air is already on sale for $84.50 off. The base configuration with WiFi connectivity and 128GB of storage is now just $746.50 (normally $799). Mashable's tech editor took the M4 iPad Air for a spin and found it pretty impressive — too impressive for the average user, even. "It delivers iterative updates that improve an already stellar tablet," he writes in his review.

Apple released its new MacBook Air with the M5 chip this month, but honestly, they're not a whole lot different than the M4 Airs. The main differences are the upgraded processor and a new wireless chip. You can save some money by grabbing the M4 model with 16GB RAM and 512GB of storage, which is currently down to just $949 at Best Buy. Amazon had the same deal at the start of the Big Spring Sale, but it's since gone out of stock multiple times and jumped up to $999.

The Apple Watch Series 11 offers significant battery improvements over its predecessor. For that reason alone, it's worth the upgrade. It also features a tougher build with durable glass that's twice as resistant to scratches, 5G capability for quicker connectivity, and a Sleep Score and hypertension tool that can flag chronic high blood pressure. It's not a major upgrade (is anything in 2026?), but as Mashable's reviewer put it: "Buy it for the battery life." Now $100 cheaper, it's an even better value.

Im a tech editor. I found 45+ tech deals Id actually buy in the Amazon Big Spring Sale.

Sun, 03/29/2026 - 16:58

As Mashable's tech editor, it's my job to test the latest and greatest products from brands like Apple, Samsung, and DJI. But I also get to test cool under-the-radar finds and random gadgets that only true tech nerds know about. For the Amazon Big Spring Sale, I hand-picked a fresh batch of tech deals that are actually worth shopping. I've also included some deals from competing retailers — if they have a better price.

Between inflation, a global memory shortage, and overall economic anxiety (trust me — I'm feeling it, too!), you don't want to miss a chance to save some money.

I've personally tested many of these products, and I'm only recommending products with genuine discounts, because we all know big retailers like to play fast and loose with the definition of the word "deal."

Finally, a word of warning — Apple deals are moving fast. We've already seen the M3 iPad Air, AirTags, AirPods, and select MacBooks go out of stock.

Kindles starting at $94.99

I don't know what I'd do without my Kindle. As an avid book collector, I have literally run out of space to store books, and so I depend on my Kindle Paperwhite. And just like during Black Friday, you can grab my beloved Kindle on sale for $134.99, with the base Kindle available for under $100.

During the Big Spring Sale, you can shop wireless Sony headphones starting at just $48. On day five of the savings event, Sony's flagship cans, the famous XM6 headphones, are also discounted to $398, their best-ever price. I loved these headphones, and as I wrote in my review, "The ANC in the XM6 is as good as or better than any I've ever heard."

However, if you're looking for something in the mid-range, you can also grab the bass-heavy Sony ULT Wear Headphones on sale for $148, another Mashable Choice winner, at a 41% discount.

If you're a creator, real estate professional, or wedding photographer who wants to take beautiful aerial videos in 4K — or just an aspiring pilot looking to have some fun outdoors — these drones are by far the most popular choice.

Amazon Echo device deals

As per usual, some of the best deals of the spring Amazon sale are on Amazon's own products, particularly in the Echo lineup. I was at the fall 2025 event where Amazon unveiled its new Echo smart home products, which include refreshes to the popular Echo Dot and Echo Show devices. You can also grab Fire TV Sticks starting at just $14.99, letting you stream movies and enjoy cloud gaming at home.

We've been waiting for this one: Our favorite Bose headphones are finally discounted for the Amazon Spring sale. The Bose QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2), the brand's current flagship, are supremely comfortable. In fact, our reviewer called them the most comfortable headphones in the world, full stop. And if you need something a little more affordable, their younger sibling is also on sale.

During Prime Day, you can grab TVs starting at just $99. However, I recommend spending a little more than that. You can grab a 55-inch Fire TV at a very reasonable price, or a 65-inch Samsung QLED TV, released last year and now getting its first big price cut.

Unfortunately, I'm still waiting for good deals on my favorite TV: The Frame art TV from Samsung. Strangely, The Frame is more expensive during the big Amazon sale.

But let me also call your attention to the cult-favorite DJI Osmo Pocket 3 Vlogging camera, which almost never goes on sale like this. Pro creators and YouTubers are obsessed with this camera (in my review, I wrote, "it should replace whatever vlogging camera you're using now"), so grab it before it goes out of stock again!

The next social media ban? Austria looks to block kids under 14 from social media

Sun, 03/29/2026 - 16:38

Less than 4 months ago, Australia banned social media for kids under 16, sparking a wave of similar proposals from governments around the world. The latest effort to ban social media for children now comes from Austria. In a press release, the Austrian government announced that a bill will be introduced by the end of June to ban social media use for children under 14.

According to the press release, a mandatory minimum age of 14 for social media would only be one part of the bill seeking to address child safety online. The bill would also introduce media literacy in schools to help young people "recognize disinformation and radicalization."

SEE ALSO: Pinterest CEO says ban kids under 16 from social media

The Austrian government said these measures would be taken in order to address the issues children have faced as a result of social media, such as cyberbullying, addiction, and mental health problems.

While the press release doesn't provide many details, it does mention that any bill introduced would address data privacy concerns related to age verification methods, ensuring that users' information is protected.

Many social media platforms have policies requiring users to be a certain age to join. However, these rules are implemented by companies themselves, with little to no incentive to uphold them. At the government level, however, as in Australia's first such bill, these bills slap social media companies with hefty fines for allowing users under age to join their platforms. The U.S. may be joining soon, as a bipartisan group of Senators proposed a bill earlier this year that would ban social media for children under 13.

The U.S. also recently saw social media companies like Meta and YouTube lose two separate trials regarding social platforms harming young people's mental health. It will be interesting to see how U.S. lawmakers go forward with their age limit proposals following those verdicts.

NYT Pips hints, answers for March 29, 2026

Sun, 03/29/2026 - 15:59

Welcome to your guide to Pips, the latest game in the New York Times catalogue.

Released in August 2025, the Pips puts a unique spin on dominoes, creating a fun single-player experience that could become your next daily gaming habit.

Currently, if you're stuck, the game only offers to reveal the entire puzzle, forcing you to move onto the next difficulty level and start over. However, we have you covered! Below are piecemeal answers that will serve as hints so that you can find your way through each difficulty level.

How to play Pips

If you've ever played dominoes, you'll have a passing familiarity for how Pips is played. As we've shared in our previous hints stories for Pips, the tiles, like dominoes, are placed vertically or horizontally and connect with each other. The main difference between a traditional game of dominoes and Pips is the color-coded conditions you have to address. The touching tiles don't necessarily have to match.

SEE ALSO: Wordle today: Answer, hints for March 29, 2026

The conditions you have to meet are specific to the color-coded spaces. For example, if it provides a single number, every side of a tile in that space must add up to the number provided. It is possible – and common – for only half a tile to be within a color-coded space.

Here are common examples you'll run into across the difficulty levels:

  • Number: All the pips in this space must add up to the number.

  • Equal: Every domino half in this space must be the same number of pips.

  • Not Equal: Every domino half in this space must have a completely different number of pips.

  • Less than: Every domino half in this space must add up to less than the number.

  • Greater than: Every domino half in this space must add up to more than the number.

If an area does not have any color coding, it means there are no conditions on the portions of dominoes within those spaces.

Best Apple Watch Series 11 deal Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple Watch Series 11 (GPS, 42mm) $299 at Amazon
$399 Save $100   Get Deal Why we like it

A $100 discount on the 42mm GPS Apple Watch Series 11 drops it to a record-low price, making it the perfect time to grab what our Tech Editor, Timothy Beck Werth, calls the "Best Apple Upgrade." Mashable's Stan Schroeder agrees, noting the battery life alone is worth the jump. "Even if you already have a Series 10, which has nearly all the same features, the new Apple Watch Series 11 doesn’t require you to charge it mid-day in order to keep it going through the night," he writes.

If you just want a reliable smartwatch without paying for features you won't use, the Apple Watch SE 3 is the way to go. We named it the "Best for Most People" in our smartwatch guide because it packs the exact same S10 chip as the Ultra 3 and the same water resistance as the Series 11 — "all for $150 less than the Series 11."

Now that the Big Spring Sale is in full swing, the 40mm model is down to $219, saving you $30. It’s also not the only configuration on sale right now. We've rounded up a few other discounted SE 3 models below so you can pick your preferred setup and still save some cash.

My beloved air fryer is down to a new best price ever during Amazons Spring Sale

Sun, 03/29/2026 - 15:45

SAVE $56: As of March 29, the Our Place Wonder Oven is on sale at Amazon for only $129 instead of its usual $185. That's a savings of 30% and its lowest price ever.

$185 Save $56   Get Deal

My air fryer bit the bullet at the end of 2025, which led me on the surprisingly overwhelming journey of choosing a new one. The market is overflowing with options, but I had a few priorities in mind on my search: non-toxic materials, a compact build that won't waste counter space, and an aesthetically pleasing design that matches my colorful kitchen. One of the only air fryers that checked all the boxes was the Our Place Wonder Oven.

I received the Wonder Oven as a gift, but honestly, it's one of the few appliances I'd gladly spend my own money on. Especially now that it's dropped to a new record-low price during the Big Spring Sale. It typically retails for $185, but you can pick it up in any color for just $129. That's a total steal for an air fryer that can also toast, reheat, roast, bake, and broil.

The Wonder Oven comes with three different trays you can swap out depending on what you're cooking — a chromed steel air fryer basket and wire rack, and an aluminum bake pan with non-toxic ceramic coating. There's also a chromed steel crumb tray to slide in at the bottom to keep the oven from getting too messy. You can also easily slip all three inside for storage when you're not using the oven.

It takes up just a sliver of counter space compared to other air fryers, yet it can fit a whole chicken up to 4.5 pounds. I was honestly concerned with how tiny it is when I opened it for the first time, but it's actually a perfect size to feed two people.

Did I mention this air fryer oven is actually cute? Its retro-inspired design features manual knobs instead of digital controls. So it doesn't just look like a hunk of tech on my counter; it looks like a tiny oven from the '70s.

With Amazon's Big Spring Sale running through March 31, you still have a few days to snag the Our Place Wonder Oven for its best price ever. If you're in the market for an air fryer, I urge you to consider this one.

NYT Connections Sports Edition today: Hints and answers for March 29, 2026

Sun, 03/29/2026 - 15:40

Today's Connections: Sports Edition is for people who watch women's soccer.

As we've shared in previous hints stories, this is a version of the popular New York Times word game that seeks to test the knowledge of sports fans.

Like the original Connections, the game is all about finding the "common threads between words." And just like Wordle, Connections resets after midnight and each new set of words gets trickier and trickier — so we've served up some hints and tips to get you over the hurdle.

If you just want to be told today's puzzle, you can jump to the end of this article for the latest Connections solution. But if you'd rather solve it yourself, keep reading for some clues, tips, and strategies to assist you.

The NYT's latest daily word game has launched in association with The Athletic, the New York Times property that provides the publication's sports coverage. Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.

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

Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake — players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.

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

Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.

I test laptops for a living — here are the best MacBook deals from the Amazon Big Spring Sale

Sun, 03/29/2026 - 15:37
A quick look at the best MacBook deals from Amazon's Big Spring Sale: Best MacBook Air deal Apple MacBook Air, 15-inch (M4, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $1,099 (save $300) Get Deal Best MacBook Pro deal Apple MacBook Pro, 14-inch (M5, 24GB RAM, 1TB SSD) $1,799 (save $100) Get Deal Best MacBook Neo deal (that's barely a deal) Apple MacBook Neo (A18 Pro, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $689.99 (save $9.01) Get Deal Best New Release Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M5, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $1,049 (save $50) Get Deal

Amazon's third annual Big Spring Sale is live through March 31. The event mainly revolves around seasonal essentials like cleaning supplies and outdoor gear, but it's also hosting some very attractive deals on must-have tech — including flagship Apple products like MacBooks. As Mashable's resident laptop expert, I'm on the case.

Apple actually just refreshed its MacBook lineup earlier this month, announcing updated MacBook Airs and Pros in addition to an all-new budget MacBook Neo. Most configurations of these new releases are seeing their very first (tiny) discounts during the Big Spring Sale, while their predecessors are priced to move at up to $300 off.

SEE ALSO: Amazon's Big Spring Sale is surprisingly good: We found 111+ deals on Apple, DJI, Sony, and Dyson

Keep in mind that Apple has discontinued its last-gen MacBooks, which means they'll only be available on the refurbished market once third-party retailers' inventories dry up. If you see a good deal on an M4 MacBook Air or Pro at Amazon this week, don't wait too long to add it to your cart. A few configurations are starting to go in and out of stock, and I think they'll sell out long before this summer's Prime Day sale. As of Sunday morning, we're seeing a few steeper price drops on MacBook Pro models compared to the first part of the Amazon Big Spring Sale. That means today could be a great day to buy.

I'll continue to monitor Amazon's Big Spring Sale MacBook deals as the sale continues into next week, so check back if nothing catches your eye just yet. Note: Deals marked with a 🔥 have dropped to a record-low price. Deals with a strikethrough are no longer available at the time of writing.

The M4 MacBook Air may be a last-gen laptop, but it's still an incredibly capable ultraportable. (In our testing, it proved much faster than much pricier Windows laptops.) It has the same 12MP Center Stage webcam, Liquid Retina display, and 18-hour battery life as its new M5 counterpart, which just offers slightly faster performance and newer wireless connectivity. This 15-inch configuration with 16GB of memory and 512GB of storage has never been cheaper.

Nine bucks off barely counts as a discount, but this is the best MacBook Neo deal I've seen outside of the Apple Store itself. (You can get $100 off there, but only if you're a college student, a parent of one, or school faculty.) This colorful little laptop has the same premium aluminum build as any other MacBook, and it boasts incredibly impressive single-core performance; in basic everyday tasks like web browsing, it's just as fast as an M4 MacBook Air. This particular model comes with Touch ID.

A MacBook Pro has more ports and a brighter, smoother display than a MacBook Air. It's also better at handling heavier workloads (like video editing) over a long period of time since it has fans. I recommend it as an upgrade pick for power users like content creators and developers. This current-gen M5 model is well future-proofed with 24GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. It's only $50 away from its record-low price from December.

Another configuration with an older, but more powerful M4 Pro chip is still in stock at the same price, though it comes with half the storage.

Navigating the launch of Perfect Order has been tricky for Pokémon TCG collectors, with prices fluctuating wildly. With that in mind, we're delighted to see Perfect Order Booster Bundles back in stock at a competitive price on Amazon.

As of March 28, Amazon has the Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Perfect Order Booster Bundle listed for $49.95 in the Big Spring Sale. Each Perfect Order Booster Bundle contains six booster packs from the new Perfect Order expansion. Every pack includes 10 cards, one Basic Energy, and a Pokémon TCG Live code card.

It's important to note that this Amazon price is not down to market price. That has been falling steadily over the last few weeks. Does this mean the Amazon price will continue to drop? It doesn't work like that. Anything close to market value is a good deal on Amazon.

The Perfect Order expansion features fan-favorites like Mega Zygarde ex, Mega Clefable ex, and Mega Starmie ex. Now that the set has officially released, we expect prices to finally stabilize.

When Amazon drops its latest sale event — such as the Big Spring Sale, which is live through March 31 — it's the perfect time to upgrade your gaming setup.

Gaming is a pricey hobby but there’s no substitute for high-spec, high-performance hardware. It takes the gaming experience to a whole other level and could make the marginal difference between success and failure. Arguably, the monitor is the most crucial of all hardware. So if you’re upgrading, you want the right model — and for the right price. That being the case, we’re recommending this deal on the Samsung 40-inch G7.

Thanks to the Big Spring Sale, the Samsung 40-inch G7 Gaming Monitor is currently priced at $699.99, a massive drop of 42%. This curved monitor is usually priced at $1,199.99, so you’re saving $500 in total.

SEE ALSO: Review: Is the Antigravity A1 drone the DJI replacement we've been hoping for?

Samsung are one of the very best when it comes to TVs and monitors, and this model is no exception. A mid-sized monitor, it has an impressively fast refresh rate on 180Hz and a 1ms response time — that means silky smooth gameplay — plus built in gaming spec such as AMD FreeSync Premium Pro. The real star of the show, however, is its ultrawide curved display, which delivers a WUHD resolution (5120 x 2160). Even at a modest 40 inches — ideal for more compact gaming stations — it’s fully immersive.

Don't miss your chance to save $500 on the Samsung 40-inch G7 Gaming Monitor as part of the Amazon Big Spring Sale. Now just $699.99 for a limited time.

One of the best TV deals we’ve seen is on the Samsung S95F 65-Inch OLED TV, which has been marked down by a sensational $800. Be sure not to miss it. There are just a few days left, with the Big Spring Sale coming to an end after March 31. The Samsung S95F 65-Inch OLED TV is currently marked down to $2,197.99, a 27% discount from the list price of $2,997.99.

We can’t recommend the Samsung S95F 65-Inch OLED TV enough. Samsung is among the very best names when it comes to dazzling smart TVs, and this one’s an absolute whopper — 65 inches of OLED 4K magnificence with access to all your favorite streaming platforms via an easy-to-navigate Tizen operating system and AI upscaling.

It’s also stacked with spec for gamers — including a 165Hz refresh rate — and boasts Object Tracking Sound+, a smart audio technology that emits sound from where the action is happening on the screen. So the sound actually travels with the action. Elsewhere in the features package, there’s an AI motion enhancer that smooths out finer details — particularly good for watching fast-paced sports.

Check out the Samsung S95F 65-Inch OLED TV while it's on offer at $2,197.99 — a saving of $800 in the Amazon Big Spring Sale.

If spring cleaning is on your mind, the aptly named Amazon Big Spring Sale is the perfect time to, erm, clean up on marked-down robot vacuums.

That’s right, the third annual Big Spring Sale — which continues through March 31 — has stacks of tech deals, whether you’re in the market for Apple devices, laptops, smart TVs, or even drones. And among those deals is a sleeper price on the Roborock Q10 S5+ Robot Vacuum, a vac and mop combo that does the dirty work on your behalf.

The Roborock Q10 S5+ Robot Vacuum has been marked down by a huge 49%, which puts it at the discounted price of $279.99. That's a total saving of $270 — this robo-vac's biggest ever discount. It's a full $50 cheaper than its previous lowest price.

SEE ALSO: Review: Is the Antigravity A1 drone the DJI replacement we've been hoping for?

This robot vacuum can pretty much do it. It tackles both carpets and hard floors thanks to a combination of hard suction vacuuming and a mop system that uses vibration technology. It can detect the difference between floors and automatically lifts its mop pads to prevent carpets getting wet. The robo-vac finds its way around your home using a LiDar navigation system that scans your living space. There’s also multi-level mapping, which means it memorizes up to four different floors, plus safe obstacle avoidance technology.

A dual anti-tangle brush means it’s great for pet owners, automatically untangling hairs as it cleans. It’s also self-emptying, with capacity in the docking station for up to 70 days of dirt before you have to empty it yourself.

All you need to do is programme its multiple modes via the Roborock app and put the daily chore of vacuuming out of your mind. Grab the Roborock Q10 S5+ Robot Vacuum for $279.99 in the Amazon Big Spring Sale and save $270.
