Best camping deal Opens in a new window Credit: Camelbak Camelbak Lobo 9 Bike Hydration Pack $62.99 at AmazonOne of the most important aspects of camping, or any outdoor activity for that matter, is staying hydrated. Without water or a good way to get it, you're cooked — so make sure you take plenty of water with you with a hydration backpack. This one can hold plenty of H2O in its reservoir and has plenty of space for additional supplies with a magnetic tube strap to keep your drinking tube around when you need it. It has a breathable mesh harness to keep you cool and comfortable, as well as a compartment where you can store your helmet instead of wearing it or carrying it to your destination. For less than $100, the Camelbak Lobo 9 Bike Hydration Pack may well be your lifeline one day should you encounter an emergency while camping. And believe it or not, not having enough water at your disposal is an emergency.

SAVE $150: Bose's QuietComfort headphones are down to $199 from their retail price of $349 this Prime Day.
Bose QuietComfort headphones $199.00 at AmazonIf you step into my boyfriend’s and my apartment, it’d be pretty easy to guess our favorite color. We have green bedding, a green shower curtain, green plants everywhere — heck, I’m evening typing this on a green keyboard. So, when we first saw Bose’s cypress green colorway for the QuietComfort headphones, we knew we wanted to buy them.
SEE ALSO: Live Blog: The latest news on October Prime Day 2024Now, I review headphones for a living, so I have a pretty solid stock of them and I’m not chomping at the bit to drop a ton of money on a new pair. The Bose QuietComforts retail for $349, and neither my boyfriend nor I could justify spending that money. However, for Prime Big Deal Days, the Bose QC headphones have dropped down to $199, or $150 off. That, I can justify. (The only other time the headphones have been this discounted was July's Prime Day.)
I personally have not tried out this specific model of headphones, but my colleagues Bethany Allard and Samantha Mangino rave about the Bose QuietComfort line, and I’d buy anything they recommend.
I know these headphones are going to be wildly comfortable and I know Bose doesn’t disappoint when it comes to noise cancellation or sound quality. The QCs have an adjustable EQ, quiet and aware modes, and up to 24 hours of battery life per charge. Brb while I click “add to cart.”

What are the best October Prime Day deals?Unsurprisingly, Amazon has reserved a lot of really good deals for itself: Select devices across its Echo, Fire, Kindle, Blink, and eero brands are on sale for up to 58% off on Prime Big Deal Days, including dirt-cheap Fire tablets and Echo smart speakers that come with free smart bulbs. Prime members can snag four free months of Amazon Music Unlimited, three free months of Kindle Unlimited, and a $10 discount on one GrubHub order of $15 or more; don't forget to use the coupon code PRIME10 at checkout.
Beyond that, we've seen a slew of TVs, laptops, tablets, headphones, and fitness trackers on sale on Amazon. Of note, that includes new all-time lows across the Apple lineup: Several MacBooks, the latest iPads, and the all-new AirPods Max with USB-C have never been cheaper on Amazon before today. Extra-deep discounts on robot vacuums are also making appearances, to the tune of up to $850 off.

Here's what was live at the time of writing:
Best Apple deal Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple MacBook Pro, 14-inch (M3, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD) $1,699.00 at AmazonRead Mashable's full review of the 14-inch Apple MacBook Pro (M3).
"The latest 14-inch MacBook Pro features an M3 chip that supports hardware-accelerated ray tracing for rendering lifelike lighting, plus a bright 120Hz mini-LED display, tons of ports (including an SDXC card slot), and a battery that lasted over 16 hours per charge in our testing. It's another Mashable Choice Award winner.
All configurations of the 14-inch M3 Pro are now on sale at all-time lows on Amazon (including the base model, which is now just $1,299). However, we're partial to the bumped-up version with 16GB of memory and 1TB of SSD storage: that extra RAM is necessary if you're going to be using it for multitasking and/or creative work. Normally $1,999, it's now just $1,699 — a 15% savings. Note that it's technically $100 cheaper at Best Buy, but only for paid members of its My Best Buy program." — Haley Henschel, Senior Shopping Reporter

"The new Fire HD 8 has the same display, processor, 13-hour battery life, and storage options as the older model, but Amazon's added a gig of extra RAM for "enhanced performance while streaming, gaming, browsing, or downloading photos and videos." (Don't expect it to be super powerful, but more memory never anyone.) Its rear camera has also gotten a bump from 2MP to 5MP, which should translate to slightly better shots. On the software side, its newly added generative AI features include Writing Assist, Webpage Summaries, and a Wallpaper Creator.
No need to upgrade if you already own the previous model, but those in need of a new portable, affordable tablet should consider short-listing this guy. The 32GB base model is on sale for $54.99 through Oct. 9 (the second half of Prime Big Deal Days), which works out to a 45% savings." — Haley Henschel, Senior Shopping Reporter

This particular configuration packs a newer Intel Core Ultra 5 155H processor with 16GB of memory, which are solid specs for multitasking. It also comes with a compatible LG Stylus Pen for drawing and taking notes on its IPS touchscreen.
Amazon currently has it priced at $759.99 for Prime members, which is a whopping 42% off its $1,299.99 MSRP and its lowest price to date. For comparison's sake, it was listed for $799.99 on the LG website when we last checked." — Haley Henschel, Senior Shopping Reporter

"While Apple, Sony, and Bose tend to get most of the hype around earbuds, there are plenty of other brands that sneak in there and surprise us. Amazon happens to be one of them with their 2021 Amazon Echo Buds. They provide excellent noise cancellation and are compatible with any system.
Normally $119.99, they're already a steal for a pair of earbuds with active noise cancellation. But on October Prime Day, they're down to $34.99, saving you $85 for 72% off." — Samantha Mangino, Shopping Reporter

"Maybe your Bluetooth speaker kicked the dust this summer after one too many pool parties. If you find yourself in the market for a new one, Prime Day is an especially great time to hit add to cart.
If you need a speaker for a party, the JBL PartyBox is just that. Despite its large size, the shoulder strap makes it easy to carry. Plus, six hours of battery life keeps it running all night long. Built-in lights and a microphone really keep things turning up all night long.
This Prime Day, you can find the JBL PartyBox down to $299.95, saving $50 for 14% off." — Samantha Mangino, Shopping Reporter

As Amazon's most basic in-house Fire TV, the 4-Series would be best suited for people who aren't super picky about saturation or brightness levels as long as it's a step up from their old LED TV — and this definitely will be. With the intuitive Fire TV platform built-in, the 4-Series can access all of your favorite streaming apps, which you can arrange in whatever layout makes sense to you." — Leah Stodart, Senior Shopping Reporter

Is the Amazon Fire Stick 4K the best streamer we've ever tested? No, Roku takes the cake there. However, it still works perfectly fine, and not to mention, it's hard to turn away from its delightful $30 price tag on Prime Day. Having tested the Amazon Fire Stick TV, set-up is easy, as simple as plugging it into an HDMI port in the back of your TV.
While the home screen is a little clunky and slow, full of ads and promotions for Prime Video content, it is a dream for those who primarily stream on the site. The Amazon Fire Stick 4K is down to $24.99, saving you $25 and 50% off.

If your main hesitation with robot vacuums was that they can't scale a staircase, sweep under couch cushions, or detail corners up to your standards, this is the one robot vacuum purchase that can — now for well under $1,000." — Leah Stodart, Senior Shopping Reporter

Opens in a new window Credit: Garmin Garmin Venu 3S $395.00 at Amazon"Ideal for smaller wrists, the Garmin Venu 3S is about .2 inches smaller in diameter and .3 oz lighter than the standard Venu 3. It still offers the same advanced features, like a built-in speaker and microphone to take calls, the ability to store music, and an abundance of health and fitness tools and insights. The only real difference besides the size is that the 3S has a slightly shorter battery life (about 10 days in smartwatch mode versus the 3's 14 days), but it still blows the Apple Watch battery out of the water. It's usually $449.99, but you can save $55 during the October Prime event and get it for only $395. That's a new all-time low." — Christina Buff, Mashable Shopping Contributor

"Espresso machines can easily run you near $1,000, and though Breville is known for their pricier machines, this Duo Temp Pro deal sits squarely in the middle of the budget range for most consumer espresso machines. You'll get the low-pressure pre-infusion designed to help you achieve even extraction, a milk frother, and a machine that heats up quickly. If you're not a huge coffee drinker or prefer as minimal effort as possible, one of the under $200 options or a Nespresso might work better for you. However, if you're looking to level up your espresso game but don't want to pay $500-plus, then the Duo Temp Pro is a solid pick.
According to the price tracker camelcamelcamel, this machine has dropped lower in price only one time before for a record low of $279.99." — Bethany Allard, Lead Shopping reporter

"Samsung's Galaxy A35 is a 'strong buy for the price,' as our friends at PCMag (also owned by Ziff Davis) said in their review. The budget-friendly Galaxy phone was released as a more affordable alternative to the Galaxy S24. As a budget phone, it doesn't offer the same speed and performance as the S24, but it also doesn't cost over $1,000. It packs a gorgeous 6.6-inch display, Samsung's Exynos 1380 processor, a 50 MP wide-angle camera with optical image stabilization, and a long-lasting 5,000mAh battery that supports fast charging. It's not the most impressive phone on the market, but on sale for [under $300], it's a pretty hard deal to beat." — Christina Buff, Mashable Shopping Contributor

The Pixel Watch 2 is priced at $170.99 for Prime Day, which is a 32% drop from its list price of $249.99 (previously $349). Back in August, in fact, $249.99 was considered a really good deal — so this is quite a nice price drop in just a couple of months.
Mashable's tech editor, Kimberly Gedeon, extensively covered the pros, cons, and differences between the Pixel Watch 2 and its successor the Pixel Watch 3. Gedeon wrote that the two watches were quite similar beyond the size of the display.
"If you've been praying for a bigger display, get the Pixel Watch 3," she wrote. "If you've been holding out for better battery life or a more fortified display, you want to wait for the Pixel Watch 4."
And if you're in the market for a Pixel Watch 2, there certainly hasn't ever been a cheaper time to buy.
Hurricane Milton is the monster storm churning through the Gulf of Mexico, and is headed toward the populated Tampa Bay region of Florida. Numerous weather experts are watching the major hurricane closely, sharing real-time updates about what's being forecast as possibly the worst storm to strike Tampa in a century.
The wind and storm surge predictions are so dire that both Tampa mayor Jane Castor and President Joe Biden are urging residents in evacuation zones to flee, or face imminent death.
SEE ALSO: Plane flies into Hurricane Milton, captures turbulent footageBut finding accurate information online about Milton's path and landfall isn't easy. Conspiracy theories and misinformation about the hurricane are rife. The situation is so bad that the White House's new Reddit account will start debunking bad information circulating about Milton and Hurricane Helene, which tore through parts of Florida and the southeast just weeks ago.
Meanwhile, bona fide weather experts are worn out by untrained posters and commenters who think they know a thing or two about tropical cyclones.
To help you filter out the falsehoods, we've assembled a list of trusted weather experts on X/Twitter who've been tracking Milton. Of course, accounts run by the National Hurricane Center and the National Weather Service, federal agencies tasked specifically with updating the public around the clock, are also trustworthy.
Now, here are top weather experts to follow for accurate information, presented in alphabetical order:

And if you're going to listen to your favorite tunes, better make sure you're doing so with a great pair of headphones. If you're ready to bring home some that actually offer decent sound quality, comfort, and some great colors to boot, you're going to want to take advantage of this Prime Day deal.
SEE ALSO: Live Blog: The latest news on October Prime Day 2024As of Oct. 8, the Beats Studio Pro x Kim Kardashian headphones are on sale for $189.99, down from their usual price of $349.95. That's $80 off their previous sale price in September, so if you chose to skip out on them last month, now's the best time to go ahead and lock in your purchase.
This special edition of the fan-favorite Beats Studio Pro headphones comes in three different hues: dune, moon, and earth, all of which are inspired by Kim's favorite colors (which you'll see all over her house). The color makeover hasn't changed what's under the hood, however, and these are excellent options if you need a new daily driver in terms of audio.
The headphones boast powerful 40mm drivers for booming sound as well as active noise cancellation and transparency mode so you can hear what's going on around you. Plus, they'll get you up to 40 hours of listening time before they need to be charged. Just 10 minutes can boost them up to four hours' power if you're in a pinch.
This deal likely won't last long as Prime Day wears on, so be sure and grab yours while you still can.

For the first day of the two-day event that is Prime Big Deal Days, Amazon has marked down tons of e-books, from self help to fiction and children's books, for prices as low as $1.99.

Best Kindle book deal Opens in a new window Credit: Europa Editions The Story of the Lost Child by Elena Ferrante $3.99 at AmazonObviously, taste in books is very personal, but for anyone out there who likes decade-spanning series about the complexities of female friendship, the Neapolitan novels fit the bill. You've probably seen this book recommended before, but I have to add my endorsement. When I finally picked up this series earlier this summer, I found myself unable to read anything else until I finished all four books — currently, my friend who I lent the first book is in the same cycle (and for anyone who's read the series, yes, we do text about how much we hate Nino).
Basically, if you've read or are planning on reading the first one, I'm willing to bet you'll be in need of the fourth one at some point — might as well get it for $3.99. And when you're done reading the books, you can check out the show.

Opens in a new window Credit: Ooni Ooni Karu 16 Multi-Fuel Outdoor Pizza Oven $519.20 at AmazonOoni's Karu 16 multi-fuel outdoor pizza oven — one of its premium offerings — is priced at $519.20 for Amazon's Prime Day. While that's still a hefty chunk of change for a pizza oven, that represents a 35% drop from its list price of $799. For more Prime Day, check out our massive list of the best deals and our live blog that's being updated with the latest news and deals.
The Karu 16 multi-fuel model is, well, what you would expect — a pizza oven that can run on multiple fuels. You're able to use wood, charcoal, or gas with the oven, which is a helpful trick. I've tested a wood-pellet-fueled Ooni in the past and there's a bit of a learning curve in getting it right. The convenience of the gas-powered option is a nice feature.
Sure, the Karu 16 is one of the bigger and more expensive models on the market, but if you're going to spring for it, now may be the time.
Flying through the most powerful hurricanes is part of the job.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Hurricane Hunters — brazen pilots and storm researchers — journey through storms like Florida-bound Hurricane Milton and work as a high-altitude weather station. They collect invaluable data about storms which are fed to forecasters and their computer models, allowing for the most informed predictions. And they're often impressively accurate.
NOAA posted footage of a turbulent atmospheric ride through Milton on Oct. 8. You can watch it below.
"Bumpy ride into Hurricane #Milton on @NOAA WP-3D Orion #NOAA43 'Miss Piggy' to collect data to help improve the forecast and support hurricane research," the NOAA Aircraft Operations Center posted online.
SEE ALSO: Hurricane Milton: See Tampa Bay webcams live as the storm approaches"Miss Piggy" is a four-engine turboprop aircraft — you can see the propellers outside the window — designed to fly for some eight to 10 hours while releasing "dropwindsondes" into the storm. These tubes relay back information about a tropical storm's wind direction, wind speed, pressure, and beyond.
"Pardon my Appalachian hoots and hollers but this is right up there with the Ian flight from two years ago. Floor panels came up. Dropsondes broke. A mess in the cabin," NOAA Hurricane Hunter engineer Nick Underwood wrote online.
"All that turbulence and we still get the dropsonde out to collect data. This is the job. Important work," he added.
Tweet may have been deletedHurricane Milton is expected to make landfall on the central coast of west Florida on Wednesday night.
Though a number of factors influence the formation of strong hurricanes (opposing winds that can break apart storms, moist or dry air, etc.), a vital influence is warm sea surface temperatures of over 80 degrees Fahrenheit (27 degrees Celsius). Warm oceans act as jet fuel for hurricanes, storm scientists explain. That's because warmer oceans fuel tropical storms as more water naturally evaporates into the air, giving storms energy and moisture to intensify. Crucially, the oceans, which absorb most of the heat created by burning fossil fuels, are relentlessly warming.
Today, Atlantic hurricanes are already twice as likely to develop from a milder storm into a major hurricane.

The White House is turning to Redditors to help disseminate important information and correct misinformation, as it officially launches its own Reddit account.
The page's first matter of business: Bolstering the Biden administration's Hurricane Milton response, fact-checking conspiracies about the back-to-back climate disasters of Helene and Milton, and connecting storm victims with the support they need. The Reddit page will include updates on federal actions, resources, and state-specific subs for those in affected areas, the Hill reported.

Happy October Prime Day to all who celebrate. Amazon has dropped prices on the usual suspects (Apple, laptops, TVs, headphones, etc.) as well as categories you might not expect, like Lego building sets.
If you're looking for a creative way to kill some time this season or a fun gift for practically anyone in your life (kids and adults), these Lego deals are pretty dang good.

Best Buy is typically a much bigger threat than Amazon when it comes to laptop deals, including gaming ones. But during any Prime event, like Prime Big Deal Days (happening Oct. 8 and 9), there are definitely a few solid options to choose from. These include several Acer Nitro models and our favorite overall gaming laptop, the Alienware M16 R2, down to a new record-low price according to Amazon price history tracker Camelcamelcamel.

After "explosively intensifying," Hurricane Milton is now growing into a larger storm.
The Florida-bound cyclone is projected to hit the central coast of west Florida as a major hurricane, and for those interested in following or better understanding the potentially historic impacts, you can watch the livestreams below (unless they are dismantled by winds or storm surge).
The hurricane is tracking towards the Tampa region, but its wind field is expansive, meaning high winds and storm surge will impact other sections of the Florida Peninsula. Milton is expected to make landfall late Wednesday.
"If the storm stays on the current track, it will be the worst storm to impact the Tampa area in over 100 years," the National Weather Service's Tampa Bay office posted online.

The Dyson Hot+Cool (AM09) is a heater and a fan, so you can use it year-round. Its Jet Focus tech gives you both a diffused airflow for evenly distributed heating or cooling and a concentrated stream of air for targeted cooling. It also has a sleep timer and oscillation for even air distribution.
Prime members can buy it at Amazon for $299.23 (regularly $469.99), or if you’re not interested in signing up for Prime, you can get it at Dyson for $299.99.

The Dyson Airwrap is $100 off for Prime members, bringing it to $499.99. (It's not on sale at Dyson.) That’s still a lot of money to pay for a hair styler, but it’s a cult-fave for a reason. It’s designed to dry and style hair without super-high heat, so it's healthier for your hair and cuts down on styling time. You’ll also get a fancy storage case and multiple styling attachments.
Mashable’s shopping reporter, Bethany Allard, says it best: “If you have the cash to spare, heat style regularly, and don't mind that your curls won't be locked in all day, the Dyson Airwrap is worth the investment.”

Best October Prime Day kitchen deals Opens in a new window Credit: Ninja Our pick: Ninja Foodi 8-in-1 XL Pro Air Fry Oven $129.99 at AmazonOne of the juicier discounts we found on any Ninja Foodi so far during Prime Big Deal days is a 43% slash on this XL air frying oven, which is now $100 cheaper than its regular price. This 8-in-1 oven has buttons for air fry, air roast, bake, whole roast, broil, toast, bagel, and pizza, and it can do two of those at once. The two-shelf design is seriously spacious, fitting two 12-inch pizzas, a tray of veggies and a five-pound chicken, or a full 12-pound turkey if you remove the shelf.
