If you’ve been tempted by the idea of a big-screen setup for movies, sports, or gaming, this officially licensed Google TV smart projector is a very clean way to do it. Right now it’s down to $250.79 for the Cyber Monday deal, marked down from $439.99 for a 43% discount.
You get 1500 ANSI lumens, support for 4K input with Full HD projection, Dolby sound, and built-in Google TV apps, so you don’t need an extra streaming stick or box just to watch your usual services.
This projector is designed to behave more like a smart TV that happens to be portable and scalable to a much larger “screen.”
Because Google TV is baked in, you can sign into your streaming services directly on the projector and start watching without extra hardware.
There are plenty of basic projectors out there, but many of them require extra boxes, cables, and compromises. This one stands out because it combines:
It makes sense if you want a big-screen setup but don’t want to commit to a huge TV permanently mounted on the wall, or if you like the idea of a flexible “TV” that can move from room to room—or indoors to outdoors—without much hassle.
At $250.79, it sits in a sweet spot: much more capable than cheap, barebones projectors, but still nowhere near the cost of a large 4K TV plus a separate streaming box.
If you want a simple way to turn a blank wall into a proper home theater, this 1500 ANSI Google TV smart projector is set up to do that with minimal extra gear. You get built-in streaming apps, auto focus, Dolby sound, and enough brightness to make movies and games actually look good in real use.
At $250.79 for the Cyber Monday deal, down from $439.99, it’s a strong pickup for anyone who’s been waiting for the right moment to jump into the projector world.
Amazon has unveiled a new Alexa lineup featuring the Echo Show 16, Echo Time smart clock, and Alexa Photo Frame. Two speakers join them: an upgraded Echo Dot with a built-in smart home hub and the Echo Studio with Home Camera, which lets Alexa+ see its surroundings. Both are available now for $99.99 and $249.99, respectively.

Instagram is making its way to yet another screen, and this time, Apple TV is getting a taste of the Reels rabbit hole. The company has launched a dedicated Instagram app for Apple TV, bringing Reels, longer videos, and live shows to the big screen. So, if watching one quick clip on a phone somehow turns into an hour of scrolling, there's now a much larger screen for that.

Audio-Technica, a brand well known for making some of the best studio and professional headphones on the market, has just come out with the ATH-AWX7000, which the company itself claims to be its "finest headphones ever." The new flagship closed-back headphone has debuted at an eye-watering price of $3,799. It combines hand-finished Japanese woodwork with a newly developed 58mm driver.
The earcups are made from Kiso cypress, a prized wood historically used for Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples. Each housing is finished by hand with traditional Echizen lacquer, which brings out the grain and is expected to darken over time. The frame and sliders are finished in a deep navy kachi-iro shade traditionally associated with samurai.
