Save $100: Grab the 11-inch M2 iPad Air for $499 instead of its full price of $599 at Amazon and Best Buy as of Jan. 27. All told, you'll get a 17% discount on this iPad by picking it up at its record low price.
Opens in a new window Credit: Apple 11-inch Apple iPad Air (M2) $499.00 at Amazon and Best BuyWe'll cut to the chase — we think the iPad Air is the best Apple tablet for most people and right now, it's on sale for its lowest price ever.
Though it's not the first time this tablet has dropped to this price (and likely won't be its last), it's still a great value on a tablet that's already fairly competitively priced. Whether your finally righting a holiday mishap one by grabbing one for yourself, picking up an early Valentine's Day gift, or simply are ready to get a new tablet, you can grab the 11-inch M2 iPad Air for just $499 at Amazon and Best Buy, saving you $100 off its $599 list price.
SEE ALSO: The best iPads for reading, working, and streamingThe name Air is a bit of a misnomer these days — Apple's M4 iPad Pro currently wears the crown for the thinnest Apple product on the market. That said, the iPad Pro also starts at $999 for an 11-inch display, and generally offers more premium features that everyday users might not want (or need). The Air, on the other hand, still has a sleek design, plenty of power thanks to the M2 chip, starting storage of 128GB, about 10 hours of battery life (according to our sister site PCMag, also owned by Ziff Davis), and still clocks in at just 1.2 pounds.
You may not get the OLED display of the Pro, but you do get a tablet that can power note taking and popular art apps. Unless you're regularly running intense tasks, PCMag's Sarah Lord put it best in her comparison between the two tablets: "Get the iPad Air if you want the most value. It's more than powerful enough to run any iPad app you want, supports nearly all the latest accessories, and comes in fun colors."
Today may not seem like a special day for shopping, but gadgets from Apple, Roomba, and more are down to some of their best prices ever on this random Monday in January. We've scoured the pages and pages of deals at Amazon and handpicked a few that we think are more than worth it on Jan. 27.
Here are our top picks for the best Amazon deals of the day. If none of these catch your eye, be sure to check back each day this week as we select new deals.
Our top pick: Apple M2 iPad Air Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple 11-inch iPad Air (M2, 128GB, WiFi) $499.00 at AmazonOur favorite iPad for most people, the M2 iPad Air is ideal for everything from streaming and reading to doubling as a laptop, thanks to the processing power of the M2 chip. In our Geekbench 6 tests, it actually scored on par with the M2 MacBook Air. So you can achieve a similar high-performance experience but pay a fraction of the cost — especially while it's on sale for $100 off as of Jan. 27. While it may not have been a massive design change from the previous generation, it doesn't need to be. As Mashable tech editor Kim Gedeon noted, the M2 iPad Air "delivers impressive performance and noteworthy battery life that will keep creatives, students, and on-the-go busy bees away from the imprisonment of charging cables and wall outlets."

Tile Mate Opens in a new window Credit: Tile Tile Mate $14.99 at AmazonWhile it's no longer the latest version of the Tile Mate, this Bluetooth tracking device will still get the job done — and for cheap. As of Jan. 27, it's on sale for only $14.99. That's 40% in savings. Just slip the ultra-thin gadget into your luggage, attach it to your keys, or fix it onto anything else you want to keep track of and you can use the Tile app to keep tabs on it. We found it to be "a reliable GPS tracker that works equally well for iOS and Android." Plus, we love that you can get notifications when you leave items behind and qualify for item reimbursement if you can't recover lost items (with a paid Tile Premium subscription).
iRobot Roomba Combo j7+ Opens in a new window Credit: iRobot iRobot Roomba Combo J7+ $599.00 at AmazonWe've sang our praises for the Roomba Combo J7+ many times before, but it always bears repeating — especially when it's on sale for nearly half price. It's been shown up by the newer, more powerful Combo J9+ in the years since its release, but it's still a beast of a mopping robot vacuum. It's a fantastic navigator, making it one of the least likely robot vacs on the market to get stuck. And while the mopping isn't the best in the business, as our in-house robot vacuum expert put it, "overall satisfactory cleaning and little need for human intervention make [it] an overall clutch investment." Snag it for just $599 instead of $1,099.99 as of Jan. 27 at Amazon. That's its best price to date.
Check out our full review of the Roomba Combo J7+.
Beats Studio Pro x Kim Kardashian Opens in a new window Credit: Beats Beats Studio Pro x Kim Kardashian $179.99 at AmazonI personally will never get over the outrageous cost of the AirPods Max — not when the Beats Studio Pro headphones exist and regularly go on sale. As of Jan. 27, the Kim Kardashian iteration of the Studio Pros are on sale for just $179.99 (down from $349.95). That's 49% in savings and about $20 shy of the lowest price on record. Not only did Mashable reviewer Alex Perry give these headphones a glowing 4.5 out of 5 stars, but he also awarded them a Mashable Choice badge of honor. Sure, they're no longer as shiny and new as other picks, but we still think they're worth grabbing. As Perry wrote in his review, "It's hard to find a pair of over-ear headphones with a better all-around experience than Beats Studio Pro.

Apple M4 MacBook Pro Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple MacBook Pro (M4, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $1,399.00 at AmazonIf you aren't worried about the price, we can't say enough good things about the M4 MacBook Pro. In our testing, it lasted almost 17 hours on a single charge and outshined the M3 chip by 27 percent. According to Mashable Tech Editor Kim Gedeon, it "wows with endurance-defying battery life and stellar performance, allowing Apple to reclaim its throne." The base model with 512GB of storage is usually $1,599, but as of Jan. 27, you can slash 13% off and get it for $1,399. Sure, that's still steep, but it matches its lowest price on record.

A new super-powered, open-source AI model called DeepSeek R1 is rattling the industry this week, after it was unexpectedly dropped into the laps of artificial intelligence experts — and the world — with seemingly valid challenges to OpenAI's expensive AI model.
Released by Chinese AI startup DeepSeek, the DeepSeek R1 advanced reasoning model purports to outperform the most popular large language models (LLMs), including OpenAI's o1. According to the company, DeepSeek R1 bested these black box offerings in several important benchmarks, and has a particular talent at mathematical, coding, and reasoning tasks, Mashable's Stan Schroeder reports. Schroeder's own tests have shown that it holds its own against rival ChatGPT in complex coding tasks.
SEE ALSO: Why DeepSeek is hitting tech stocks hard, including Nvidia's"In the background of all this are training costs which are orders of magnitude lower than for some competing models, as well as chips which aren't as powerful as the chips that are on disposal for U.S. AI companies," wrote Schroeder. "DeepSeek thus shows that extremely clever AI with reasoning ability doesn't have to be extremely expensive to train — or to use."
DeepSeek is free to use – how to try it nowFor curious minds and those looking for open source alternatives to the industry's current major players: DeepSeek's chatbot offering is free to use on the web and now available for download on the Apple App Store.
In order to use the new, "highly-intelligent" DeepSeek-V3 model, users will need to create an account or log-in with their Google information.
Credit: DeepSeekThe model's API is also available for extremely low cost — just $0.14 for one million input tokens, compared to OpenAI's $7.5 rate for o1. In addition to the full size (32-billion-parameter) RI model, DeepSeek offers smaller, distilled models ranging from 1.5 billion parameters to 70 billion, reports the Register. Create an account on DeepSeek's API platform to get started.
Mike White's anthology series The White Lotus returns for its third season this February, promising more satire of the ridiculously rich (and maybe another death).
SEE ALSO: 'The White Lotus' isn't a whodunnit. So why are we watching it like one?The White Lotus Season 3 brings us to a luxury resort in Thailand, where new groups of travelers — plus a familiar face in Season 1's spa manager Belinda (Natasha Rothwell, How to Die Alone) — are ready for the vacation of a lifetime. The trailer gives us a taste of what's to come for each hotel guest, played by an all-star cast.
Leslie Bibb (Juror #2), Michelle Monaghan (MaXXXine), and Carrie Coon (His Three Daughters) star as three longtime friends on a girls' trip, but it seems like cracks are already forming in their friendship. Jason Isaacs (Baldur's Gate 3) plays wealthy businessman Timothy, who's on vacation with his wife Victoria (Parker Posey, Beau Is Afraid) and their three children (Patrick Schwarzenegger, Sarah Catherine Hook, and Sam Nivola). Yet this family getaway could go off the rails when Timothy learns that he might lose everything and go to jail.
Elsewhere, Fallout's Walton Goggins and Sex Education's Aimee Lou Wood play a couple on vacation, and Tayme Thapthimthong, Lek Patravadi, and BLACKPINK's Lalisa Manobal, star as the White Lotus staff members who will surely be saddled with all these guests' nightmarish problems.
Watch the full trailer above for more teases of social satire, sex, and violence. Plus, the immortal question, "Why are rich men always so angry?"
The White Lotus Season 3 premieres Feb. 16 at 9 p.m. ET on HBO and Max.
SAVE $200: The 14-inch M4 MacBook Pro (16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) is on sale at Best Buy for $1,399, down from the usual price of $1,599. That's a 13% discount.
Opens in a new window Credit: Apple M4 MacBook Pro (14-inch, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $1,399.00 at Best BuyTo no one's surprise, it's not a cheap investment to own an Apple laptop. We're talking the need to spend well over $1,000. But for plenty of people, the cost is worth it for the specs. The wince-inducing price tag, however, means it's just that much more exciting to find a nice deal. Until tomorrow, Best Buy is offering us a nice discount on a premium MacBook.
Through Tues. Jan 28, the M4 MacBook Pro (14-inch, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) is on sale at Best Buy for $1,399, marked down from the typical price of $1,599. That means you'll be getting a 13% discount that shaves $200 of the price.
One of the most exciting upgrades to the M4 MacBook Pro is the larger RAM. The M4 offers 16GB of RAM, which is twice as much compared to the 8GB found in the M3. The deal price of $1,399 gets you 512GB of storage capacity, but if that's not enough, you can also save $200 on the model that offers 1TB of storage. The M4 MacBook Pro with 16GB RAM and 1TB SSD will set you back $1,599 during this Best Buy sale, instead of the usual $1,799.
Mashable Tech Editor Kimberly Gedeon reviewed the 14-inch version of the M4 MacBook Pro and noted it comes with some impressive stats that should scare Windows PCs. For starters, Gedeon found the laptop to get about 17 hours of battery life. That's slightly less than Apple's statement that the laptop should get 24 hours of battery life. However, the 17 hours of Mashable testing involved streaming a movie non-stop, so less taxing tasking could improve battery life.
Gedeon also mentions the sound quality on the latest MacBook Pro is fantastic. "The 14-inch Apple MacBook Pro continues to have angelic audio that sounds like it's been tuned by a choir of heavenly beings." She continues on to say, "I've been reviewing laptops for several years now, and nothing comes close to what the MacBook Pro has been able to do with sound."
As Gedeon mentions in the review, the specs Apple injected into the M4 MacBook Pro are especially great for creative professionals. But she warns it's not an especially great laptop if you plan on streaming movies, sending emails, and signing onto the family Zoom party every holiday season. Even with the $200 discount, the M4 MacBook Pro's price is fairly steep for simple tasks a more budget-friendly laptop is totally capable of completing.
But if you're a creative professional, the M4 MacBook Pro is hard to beat. Especially thanks to today's sale price at Best Buy, the 14-inch model can be your new best friend for $1,399. But you'll want to hop to it because the Best Buy sale price expires tomorrow.

Today could be a very red day in the stock market, and DeepSeek might be to blame.
China's AI startup DeepSeek has captured the attention of enthusiasts ever since its launched its latest reasoning AI model, DeepSeek R1. It's just as smart or even more capable than competing models, including OpenAI's top model, while charging a lot less for AI access. It's free to use as a web or smartphone app, and it's available as open-source, meaning you can use it locally and fine-tune it as you wish, without worrying about the privacy implications or Chinese censorship.
In a matter of days, DeepSeek proved to be so popular as to climb to the top of Apple's App Store, surpassing OpenAI's ChatGPT as the most downloaded app.
But for owners of Nvidia stock, and stock traders in general, DeepSeek is on track of becoming a black swan — an unexpected event with extreme consequences.
Early on Monday, Nvidia stock went down 13% in premarket trading at one point, threatening to wipe more than $500 billion off of Nvidia's market cap. As of this writing, $NVDA is at $125.95, roughly 11% down from its last traded price of $142, while NASDAQ is down 3.9% in premarket trading.
The reason why the market reacted so poorly to DeepSeek can be found in its cost and efficiency. While we don't know all the details about DeepSeek's budget, it apparently cost DeepSeek just $5.58 million to train its DeepSeek V3 model, and the company reportedly had 50,000 Nvidia GPUs at its disposal; a respectable number but still very low when compared to major U.S. AI companies which reportedly have more than 10 times that number.
Tweet may have been deletedSpeaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, on Wednesday, Microsoft's Satya Nadella said that DeepSeek should be taken "very seriously."
"To see the DeepSeek new model, it’s super impressive in terms of both how they have really effectively done an open-source model that does this inference-time compute, and is super-compute efficient," he said.
And investor Marc Andreessen called DeepSeek "one of the most amazing and impressive breakthroughs" he'd ever seen.
Tweet may have been deleted What DeepSeek's rise means for the AI industryIf DeepSeek was indeed able to match the performance of OpenAI's best model on far less Nvidia GPUs and at a fraction of a cost, then the implications are that the demand for Nvidia GPUs, which is driving the company's stock price up, may go down in the future. More broadly, the entire AI market may be overblown, as seen by today's performance of AI-related companies.
SEE ALSO: DeepSeek AI is now on top of Apple's App StoreOf course, it's never that simple. DeepSeek, an offshoot of Chinese AI-specialized hedge fund High-Flyer Quant, could actually be running more GPUs and train its models on a higher cost than is publicly known.
Furthermore, while the market obviously reacted poorly to the news, it is possible that DeepSeek tech could open up new possibilities in AI in the future, which in turn could once again spark another race to get as much AI hardware as possible.
It's also worth noting that DeepSeek is not the only new Chinese player in the space. ByteDance, parent company of TikTok, announced its Doubao-1.5-pro model yesterday, which also beats many top models in a number of benchmarks, though - in contrast to DeepSeek - Doubao is not available as open source.
It will likely take a while until the market absorbs all this news and its significance to the AI space; for now, though, the direction is down.
