There are so many different handheld gaming devices to choose from right now, all with some pretty hefty price tags. But every once in a while a deal comes around that's worth checking out, especially if you've been on the hunt for your own portable gaming PC. Right now, Amazon has a great deal on the Lenovo Legion Go. It's currently available for $499, saving you over $200 on its $699.99 list price.

That's a discount of 29% and marks its lowest-ever price according to price tracker camelcamelcamel. This model comes with 512GB of storage, 16GB of RAM, an AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme GPU, and AMD Radeon graphics so you can enjoy crisp, clear quality from your favorite games while on the go. On top of that, it also features a large 8.8-inch display to take in all of your favorite titles.

We had plenty of positive things to say about the Lenovo Legion Go back when it was released, too. In our review, we said that the "Legion Go can whet your appetite with its gigantic, buttery smooth display, detachable controllers, and more than adequate horsepower for running games new, old, indie, and AAA." It's the kind of device that if "you want to get a foot into the PC gaming door without committing to a way more expensive laptop or desktop PC, the Legion Go can be an ideal choice for you."

We also favored it over its competitor, the Steam Deck. In our breakdown of Steam Deck vs. Lenovo Legion Go, we came to the conclusion that the "Legion Go has a bigger and better display, more impressive internal specs, detachable controllers, and requires much less effort to play games from a variety of online storefronts. Steam Deck is a fantastic device, no doubt, but Legion Go is better in all the ways that matter if you're really serious about PC gaming."

It's true that this is a device for those who are serious about PC gaming. The price tag can still be intimidating even with a discount like this, so it's worth the investment if you've been on the lookout for a portable gaming device that can keep up with you and your favorite games. Deals like this one don't last long though, so if it has caught your eye, it's worth picking it up at Amazon before it's gone.

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.

There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it'll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters clearly shown.

An important note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle.

If you find yourself stuck at any step of today's Hurdle, don't worry! We have you covered.

The Dark Tower has been on Stephen King's mind for months now.

After weeks of dropping hints on X (formerly Twitter) over the summer, the horror master finally said what a new story set in the universe of his eight-book series might look like — and now he's confirmed that he's actually got something in the works.

SEE ALSO: Every single Stephen King movie adaptation, ranked

"I'm back in Mid-World...and the Territories," wrote King over the weekend. "Don't know if it will develop into anything--I never know--but it's good to be back."

Tweet may have been deleted

Obviously there's not much to go on there. We don't know what the length of this new story might be (it could be a short or a full-length novel), or really anything about the plot. But King does mention "The Territories", which feature in both the main series and King's other novels that he co-authored with Peter Straub, The Talisman and The Black House.

Of course, we also don't know if this story will ever actually see the light of day. King's post makes it clear that he's in the early stages, and isn't even sure if it will "develop into anything." But for fans of The Dark Tower, even the possibility of a return to Roland Deschain's world is exciting news.

With up to 1TB of storage, you’ll have ample space for all your apps and documents, while the all-day battery life keeps you productive on the go.

When Apple launched its all-in-one personal computer, the iMac G4, back in 2002, it was the coolest computing device you could own. A big departure from your typical squarish-beige-box PC, the iMac G4 was funky and different, with a white/clear plastic display attached to a hemispherical base that held the components.

The legendary iMac G4 is long gone now (except as an artifact of adoration in fans' basements), but Apple might launch something similar next year – at least on the outside.

According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple's rumored smart home display will look pretty much like the iMac G4, with a display attached (at an angle) to a small base that could be "reminiscent of the circular bottom of the iMac G3 from a couple of decades ago."

The base might include speakers, which would make the device something akin to a HomePod (mini?) with a screen. But the display, Gurman claims, will be fairly small, "about the size of two iPhones side by side."

The small size should make this device "relatively cheap," something a user could have in several rooms in their home. Gurman also claims the device will run a new operating system, with iPad-like apps such as FaceTime, Notes, and Calendar, but overall tailored for videos and photo slideshows. So, a little bit of everything, then.

Apple's smart home display will launch in 2025, Gurman says, as the first of two smart displays Apple is planning. The larger of the two will have a bigger display and a robotic limb, but this one will cost "closer to $1,000" and probably won't be ready until 2026.
