Prime members can now score the best price ever on the All-new Blink Mini 2 smart cam at just $20 (50% off)

50% off/$20

As part of its early Prime Day deals, and just after the debut of the sweet All-new 2024 Amazon Echo Spot smart speaker with display (it is seeing a massive price drop for Prime members right now too), we are now tracking the best price yet on the All-new Blink Mini 2 smart camera. This regular $40 smart camera debuted earlier this year just after we had a chance to give it a test run ahead of launch, but today’s deal at $19.95 shipped for Prime members is the very best yet. There has been some notable one-day offers at Best Buy that undercut the previous $30 low at Amazon, but nothing quite as low as the straight up 50% drop we are tracking ahead of Prime Day this year – it could drop lower next week, but it’s very hard to believe at a price like this.

Review: JBL’s Live Beam 3 ANC earbuds with touchscreen charging case and Google Finder action

$200

Today we are taking a hands-on look at the new JBL Live Beam 3 earbuds that were unveiled earlier this year. This time landing with a more AirPods Pro-like form-factor, the noise cancelling action also joins the brand’s latest iteration of its Smart Charging Case complete with an onboard touchscreen. The question is whether or not it’s just a gimmick, and if the sound experience can hold up to the $200 price tag. Head below for a closer look and some hands-on impressions.

All-new 2024 Amazon Echo Spot smart speaker with display arrives with launch deal

Echo Spot 2024
Reg. $80/$45

Update: Amazon has issued and official press release for the brand new Echo Spot smart speaker with additional details. You’ll find them down below.

Amongst all of the now live early Prime Day deals on Amazon in-house tech, the retail giant has just delivered a new 2024 iteration of the Echo Spot seemingly out of nowhere. This smart speaker is essentially an updated version of the previous-generation Spot, taking on a more elevated form-factor similar to what we see on the entry-level Echo Pop. The new 2024 Amazon Echo Spot features all of the Alexa voice control prowess you would expect, but adds a customizable nightstand or desktop-ready display to the experience. The new speaker seems to have just went live on Amazon with a discounted launch deal marking it down from the $80 MSRP to just $44.99 shipped for Prime members as part of its early Prime Day offers – there’s no telling how long this deal might last.

Friday’s best game deals: Metal Gear Solid collection $24 low, Dragon’s Dogma 2 $56, more

39% off/From $24

While we all await the release date for the upcoming Metal Gear Solid Delta (and remain incensed after GameStop “played us like a damn fiddle”), Amazon is now offering deals on the official Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol.1 to get you ready.

Regularly $40, this is at least 25% off and marking a new Amazon all-time low on the Switch version at 39% off. Metal Gear is a storied and wonderfully convoluted franchise. It’s no easy task to get caught up on the the timeline/story, but this collection can certainly help. It reaches way back to the 8-bit origins, delivering copies of Metal Gear, Metal Gear 2, Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2, Metal Gear Solid 3, Metal Gear (NES/FC version), and Snake’s Revenge, alongside a host of add-ons and extras in the package.

Nintendo hosted what can only be described as a completely epic Direct showcase streaming event yesterday. After Xbox mostly blew me away, I might have to give the award for best summer gaming showcase to Nintendo this year. The new Zelda Echoes of Wisdom, Mario and Luigi: Brotherhood, Donkey Kong Country Returns HD, and the new Super Mario Party Jamboree were just some of the highlights here – there’s even a new Nintendo Switch Lite Hyrule Edition launching in September. But the real star of the show for many was the, to put it extremely lightly, the highly-anticipated proper reveal of Metroid Prime 4: Beyond (it’s actually real!). And on top of all that, as if that wasn’t enough, there are some serious classics landing on Nintendo Switch Online starting right now from the Zelda and Metroid franchise as well as the N64 hit, Perfect Dark (I played way too many hours of this back in the day). Details below.

Belkin Auto-Face Tracking MagSafe Stand Pro with Apple DockKit

After seeing some notable deals on its more traditional 15W MagSafe charging stations and the dedicated Apple Watch model, today we spotted a rare deal at Amazon on the Belkin Auto-Face Tracking MagSafe Stand Pro with Apple DockKit. This model debuted at CES earlier this year before being official launched thereafter as the world’s first Apple DockKit-supported iPhone stand with auto-tracking. It carries a regularly $180 price tag and you can now knock 25% off for a total at $134.99 shipped. Simply go to this page to redeem the discount, or use code 25BELKINDEAL at checkout – if the code doesn’t work at checkout, it likely means you’re already seeing the $135 deal price there.

Amazon is now once again offering the Belkin BoostCharge Pro Apple Watch Charger starting from $47.99 shipped. Regularly $60 and currently on sale for $51 directly from Belkin, this is a solid 20% in savings and the best price we can find. It lands on par with our previous mention and within $5 of the lowest price we have tracked this year to provide a clean minimalist solution for Apple Watch users. While plenty of folks are rocking a 3-in-1 tree-style MagSafe station that powers your entire Apple kit, including an Apple Watch, it can be nice to have a basic setup for your Apple wearable elsewhere in the house, at the office, on the nightstand, and more with a space-saving footprint.
