If you’re ready to upgrade your monitor, this Samsung deal over at Amazon just might be your best bet. The 27-inch version of Samsung’s Odyssey G3 is $130 right now, a full $100 off its regular $230 price and its lowest price of the year. It’s a part of early Prime Day deals and a good sampling of what we can expect for the shopping holiday, which officially lands on July 8th. Tap the button below to see it for yourself or keep reading to see why we like this deal and why this should be your next monitor.
If you want smoother gaming and extra gaming features on a budget, this monitor is where it’s at. It has a 180Hz refresh rate, AMD Radeon FreeSync, and a 1ms response time for extremely smooth action. For stealth gamers, it includes a black equalizer, which dynamically normalizes the darker parts of your screen. In affect, this means that you’ll be able to see character models that are hidden in dark spots better without making the rest of the screen a bright, glaring mess. Plus, with the monitor’s Virtual Aim Point, which provides an on-screen aiming cursor, you’ll be able to get that headshot with no issues. The monitor is 1080p, however, but for a full monitor with a 180Hz refresh rate and gaming features for less than the cost of a tablet, it’s a great deal — oh, and it has an eye saver mode, and the ability to tilt, twist, and adjust to your heart’s desire, too!
So, if you’re excited to try a true gamer’s monitor at a drop down price, this is the deal for you. The Samsung Odyssey G3 isn’t going to be $100 off forever. Again, this makes the $230 monitor just $130. You can see it, and pick up the deal while it is still active, by tapping the button below. If you’d rather try something else, though, there are other great monitor deals going on, including a ton of Samsung monitor deals, if you know where to look.
The absolutely absurd idea of putting a touchscreen display on a mouse isn't exactly new. Turtle Beach already did it with its Command Series MC7, which features a 2.25-inch control screen. But apparently, even that wasn't ridiculous enough for Arctic Fox Technologies. Its new Super Mouse looks like someone took the chunky old Atari ST mouse, slapped a touchscreen and scroll wheel on it, and called it an upgrade.
The result is a rather unusual-looking mouse that is now on Kickstarter, starting at $199. And as ridiculous as it looks, some of its features are genuinely intriguing.
Apple is less than a day away from launching its highly anticipated OLED MacBook Pro with a touch-sensitive screen. But it appears that the upgrade is going to cost a pretty penny. According to a report by Bloomberg, Apple is reportedly eyeing a starting price of $2,899 for the 14-inch MacBook Pro, while the 16-inch version could start at $3,399 in the US.
"At $2,899, the 14-inch model would mark the highest starting price for a new MacBook Pro model, surpassing the $2,799 Apple charged for a 17-inch version introduced in 2006," says the report. The report claims that Apple is targeting a minimum price hike of $400 for its upcoming redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models.
I've spent a good amount of time digging into the spec sheet of the new M6 MacBook Pro (14-inch), and for all intents and purposes, this is a classic Apple "chip and connectivity" refresh. It's not a full redesign. The chassis, Liquid Retina XDR panel, speakers, ports, and battery, all of them carry over unchanged.
However, the M6 brings more cores, stronger on-device AI, higher memory bandwidth on the larger configs, and modern wireless. Here’s the practical rundown of what actually improved, and whether those gains are worth your money.
