Now we’ve found a major price drop on one of the few non-DJI drones to feel like a genuine game-changer, the Antigravity A1 8K 360-degree camera drone. Our reviewer had a blast with this drone when it officially launched.  Thanks to the Amazon Spring Sale, you can now land an Antigravity A1 Infinity Bundle for $1,599, a 20% discount from the regular list price of $1,999. To save a little more, the A1 Standard Bundle is $1,279, a 20% discount.Not only does this drone offer a 360-degree view and 8K resolution, but it comes with immersive video goggles that let you fly using the drone's POV.Mashable reviewer Adam Doud said it "gives you a sense of freedom in flight not possible until now." SEE ALSO: Review: Is the Antigravity A1 drone the DJI replacement we've been hoping for? Why we like the Antigravity A1 camera droneThe camera tech brand behind this drone, Insta360, boasts that this is the world’s first consumer aerial drone with built-in 360-degree video capture. You fly it with a combination of lightweight Vision goggles and a one-handed grip controller (all included as part of the marked-down Infinity bundle, including batteries, a charging hub, a carry case, spare parts, and more). It’s a freaky but fun flying experience. When you turn your head in the goggles, you can see all 360-degree of the camera’s capture — it’s almost like drone flying combined with VR but it’s, erm, real.Mashable’s Amanda Yeo said that the Antigravity A1 is “delightfully easy to fly, and the device makes it simple even for drone novices to capture spectacular, high quality aerial images.” There’s also simple landing, built-in obstacle avoidance, and lots of camera and video capture options. Its dual-lens camera system is based on Insta360’s X Series line and offers “beautifully smooth, clear, and seamless 8K 360 video,” according to our reviewer.One of our few quibbles with Antigravity A1 was the price, but thanks to the Amazon Big Spring Sale, that’s no longer an issue.

We've officially reached the halfway point of the Amazon Big Spring Sale 2026, and we've already seen deals on iPads and MacBooks come and go. We're also seeing new deals drop daily, and our shopping reporters are on the job.This event might not carry quite the same weight as Prime Day or Black Friday, but it's still one of the biggest sales events on the shopping calendar, and this year's deals are surprisingly good. This spring-themed event will go hard on outdoor equipment like drones and power stations, spring cleaning essentials like robot vacuums, and everything else shoppers are looking to buy after a long, cold winter. Our professional deal hunters have spotted record-low prices on Apple, Fire TVs, Kindles, and Sony headphones.We've lined up all the best deals from the Amazon Big Spring Sale. Keep scrolling for the full schedule of events and the latest live updates, price drops, and news from the Mashable shopping team.

SAVE $15: As of March 28, you can grab a Kindle for only $94.99 at Amazon during the Big Spring Sale, a 14% discount and record-low price. Opens in a new window Credit: Amazon Amazon Kindle $94.99 at Amazon $109.99 Save $15   Get Deal If there's one thing we can always guarantee, it's that Amazon devices will get the biggest discounts during the retailer's major sales events. And such is the case for Kindles during the Big Spring Sale (which runs through March 31). If you've had your eye on a Kindle, but didn't want to pay full price, now's a great time to grab one.As of March 28, the basic Kindle is down to just $94.99 at Amazon during the Big Spring Sale. That's about $15 cheaper than usual and the best price we've seen since post-holiday season sales. Kindles do not see discounts very often, so this is likely the cheapest you'll find it until Prime Day in June.I own this exact model in the matcha shade and am constantly recommending it to everyone I know. Mashable has tested every major e-reader, and this is one of our faves. SEE ALSO: Live updates on Amazon Big Spring Sale 2026: Save $100 on Bose and Marshall headphones The smallest and most affordable in Amazon's e-reader lineup, the basic Kindle is an excellent device. At only six inches, it's comfortable enough for one-handed reading and can easily slip into a purse. Though 16GB of storage may not sound like much, it's surprisingly enough to hold thousands of books. And if you ever come close to filling it up, you can simply offload books to make more space. It'll also last you up to six glorious weeks of reading before you even need to charge it.While it's not waterproof like the Kindle Paperwhite — which is Mashable's top-rated Kindle and is also on sale — it does have the same screen resolution and adjustable front light. The display also looks just like paper has that same dose of magic that somehow makes you read incredibly fast. Just make sure that you're extra cautious if you read at the beach or in the bathtub.If you're in the market for an e-reader and don't want to spend over $100, I highly recommend grabbing the basic Kindle while it's down to just $95.And if you don't mind spending a little more, you can also grab the Kindle Paperwhite on sale for $134.99.

Meta, one of the mega-corporations advancing artificial intelligence the fastest, has agreed to underwrite the energy costs of its newest and largest data center in Northeast Louisiana, according to the Wall Street Journal.Currently under construction in Richland Parish, Louisiana, the new data center is projected to cost $27 billion and consume up to 5 gigawatts of power, enough to power approximately 1 million homes. In an attempt to convey the scale of the undertaking, and while sounding like a James Bond villain without realizing it, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg described the finished data center as "so large it would cover a significant part of Manhattan." SEE ALSO: Meta, YouTube found guilty of negligence in history-making social media addiction trial But to ensure that the good people of Louisiana don't subsidize the undertaking with absurdly high electricity bills, Meta has signed an agreement with Entergy Louisiana to privately fund new energy infrastructure throughout the state, including seven new natural gas power plants with a total energy output of 5,200 megawatts, 240 miles of 500-kilovolt transmission lines, and three new battery storage locations to help store excess energy. Fears about the economic disruptions caused by artificial intelligence, as well as the rising toll on the environment and local energy grids, have crossed political lines, with a recent poll finding that majorities of registered Democrats, Republicans, and independents support stronger regulation of AI and data centers. However, the same poll also found that majorities across all age groups continue to use AI at least once a month.

The global memory shortage due to rapid AI data center expansion is hitting everyone, even the biggest tech companies in the world.Case in point: Sony is suspending orders for almost all SD card sales from both vendors and consumers, per PetaPixel. The announcement was made on Sony's Japanese website, and explicitly blamed the lack of available memory as a reason why it can't fulfill SD card orders for the time being. Sony's full statement is as follows:Thank you for your continued patronage of Sony products.Due to the global shortage of semiconductors (memory) and other factors, it is anticipated that supply will not be able to meet demand for CFexpress memory cards and SD memory cards for the foreseeable future. Therefore, we have decided to temporarily suspend the acceptance of orders from our authorized dealers and from customers at the Sony Store from March 27, 2026 onwards.Regarding the resumption of order acceptance, we will consider it while monitoring the supply situation and will announce it separately on the product information page. SEE ALSO: PS5, PS5 Pro price hikes announced as Sony blames economic pressures CFExpress Type A and Type B cards, as well as regular SD cards, are all affected by this move. Some low-end cards appear to still be in production, per PetaPixel, but as it stands, just assume that any card you see on a store shelf is the last one you'll see there for a while from Sony. The company's statement even straight up said that it doesn't know when it will be able to get the manufacturing up and running again.Sony follows Western Digital as a fellow big tech memory manufacturer that is feeling the squeeze from the needs of data centers. Western Digital announced in February that it had sold out of all hard drives for the year, with 10 whole months to go. This wasn't a great week for Sony in general, as the company also announced massive price hikes on its current-gen PlayStation video game consoles, most likely for the same reasons that it had to stop making SD cards.

Mac users mourning the loss of Launchpad have found solace in a few third-party apps that replicate its functionality. However, one popular replacement, AppGrid, is now being blocked by Apple from receiving updates in the App Store. Why? According to the app's developer, Apple told them it's too similar to Launchpad, which, again, no longer exists on the Mac.Launchpad was an iPad-like app grid on the Mac, accessible from the dock. Apple released Launchpad alongside Mac OS X Lion in July 2011. When a user clicked Launchpad in the dock, a pop-up filled the screen with all the apps installed on the Mac. Users could curate and order the apps in Launchpad, however they liked. SEE ALSO: iOS 26.4 available now: All updates, security improvements to know However, Apple killed off Launchpad with macOS Tahoe, released last September. Launchpad was replaced with a new app called Apps. However, Apps simply lists the Mac's apps in alphabetical order, with no way to sort the app icons. In addition, the search function in Apps is buggy and doesn't always find the app that a user is looking for.Many Mac users were quite unhappy with Apple removing Launchpad. Third-party developers have since stepped in to replace Launchpad, launching their own apps with their take on the feature.One of the more popular Launchpad replacements in Apple's official App Store is AppGrid. However, according to its developer, Attila Miklósi, Apple is blocking the app's ability to release new updates in the App Store.According to Apple's developer guidelines, apps cannot be “confusingly similar to an existing Apple product or interface.” However, Launchpad no longer exists in the latest version of macOS. Apple is essentially blocking developers from creating a feature that no longer exists.Miklósi says that Apple shared that they would accept updates if AppGrid looked less like Launchpad did when it existed. However, the developer is hesitant to change AppGrid's look, as thousands of users have already paid for the version that looks like it currently does.While Miklósi has maintained the app with updates through direct downloads on AppGrid's website, the App Store version hasn't been updated since November 2025. As Miklósi points out, Apple oddly didn't remove the app from the App Store. Users can still buy the Pro version of the app too, giving Apple its percentage of the App Store revenue cut. However, the AppGrid version in the App Store can't be updated there and is essentially in a "zombie state" due to Apple's policies.

Mashable's reviewer called them, "without a doubt, one of the best products of the year" in 2025. The latest premium buds feature outstanding noise cancellation (twice as good as the Pro 2), a solid eight hours of battery life with ANC on, and new foam-infused tips that come in five sizes to find the perfect fit. Apple also brought the heart rate monitoring tech from the Powerbeats Pro 2 (our favorite earbuds for working out) and Fitness app compatibility to the new AirPods Pro 3, and introduced a live translation feature.While we've seen the buds drop as low as $184 in the past, this Amazon spring sale discount is still worth grabbing.More AirPods dealsApple AirPods 4 — $99.99 $129 (save $29.01)Apple AirPods 4 (with ANC) — $149 $179 (save $30)Apple AirPods Max (1st Gen, USB-C) — $449.99 $549 (save $99.01 — also available at Walmart)Best AirTag deal Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple AirTag (1st Gen, 4-Pack) $59.99 at Amazon $99 Save $39.01   Get Deal Why we like itThis four-pack of Apple's Bluetooth trackers keeps going in and out of stock on Amazon, which is hardly surprising: It's never been cheaper there.

The main differences are the upgraded processor and a new wireless chip. You can save some money by grabbing the M4 model with 16GB RAM and 512GB of storage, which is currently down to just $949 at Best Buy.

It's not a major upgrade (is anything in 2026?), but as Mashable's reviewer put it: "Buy it for the battery life."

This year, I've been focused on a lot of virtual reality and augmented reality products, particularly smart glasses. SEE ALSO: Amazon Big Spring Sale 2026: Live updates on the best deals I tested a ton of smart glasses at CES 2026, and most recently, I put the new TCL RayNeo Air 4 Pro AR/XR Glasses through their paces. And as I mentioned, these futuristic smart glasses are only $249 during the Amazon spring sale. These glasses were just released in late February, and an on-page coupon lets you take $50 off the retail price of $299. Opens in a new window Credit: RayNeo TCL RayNeo Air 4 Pro AR/XR Glasses $249 at Amazon $299 Save $50   Get Deal In my TCL RayNeo Air 4 Pro review, I said that these AR glasses are like an OLED TV you can wear, and they're designed for entertainment and gaming. Wherever you are, they project a 201-inch virtual display into the air. They're the first smart glasses with an HDR display, and they're almost twice as bright as the competition. While I enjoyed testing (and watching The Lord of the Rings) on the new RayNeo smart glasses, the pair I actually use most often come from Xreal, the market leader in this niche.Xreal's AR glasses can produce an ultra-wide display that you can anchor in place in your field of view, giving you an extra monitor. I've found they're really useful when working on an airplane or on the go. The Xreal One Pro AR Glasses have way more customization options than the RayNeo and a new AI 3D conversion feature.Finally, Xreal recently released the Xreal 1S AR Glasses, which offer big upgrades at a lower price. The 1S can project a 500-inch virtual screen. If you want to work, go with the One Pro. If you want to work and watch movies or game, go with the 1S. Both are on sale at record prices.

For early adopters, yes.Bear in mind that smart glasses are still in their infancy as a product category, and even the best AR glasses have some issues. But if you're an early adopter who wants to explore the augmented world, TCL and Xreal are the brands I'd recommend. Crucially, none of these glasses feature cameras. Smart glasses with cameras have always felt a bit creepy to me, and as Mashable has reported, creeps do seem to love Meta-Ray Ban smart glasses.Want to learn more about getting the best out of your tech?

There's more legal trouble brewing for Google, as a victim of Jeffrey Epstein has filed a class action suit against the world's largest search engine, alleging its AI Mode improperly published personal information about sex trafficking victims.The problem began with the Department of Justice, whose rollout of the Epstein files, following the passage of the Epstein Files Transparency Act last year, was riddled with hasty redactions, which often protected the identities of alleged perpetrators while the identities of victims were left unconcealed. SEE ALSO: Jmail creators release Jeffrey Epstein’s calendar as JCal The DOJ, however, has acknowledged the errors and removed the personal information from its website. The problem now lies with Google, and more specifically, its artificial intelligence, which trawled the initial, unredacted document dump and still hosts the sensitive personal information of sex trafficking victims."Even after the government acknowledged the disclosure violated the rights of survivors and withdrew the information, online entities like Google continuously republish it, refusing [the] victim’s pleas to take it down," the lawsuit reads. The allegations don't stop there. Not only did Google knowingly refuse to remove the sensitive information, which includes "full name, contact information, cities of residence, and association with Jeffrey Epstein," but the AI also allegedly "generated a hypertext link allowing anyone to send direct email to Plaintiff with the click of a button."Worse still, for Google: the lawsuit alleges that other artificial intelligence companies did not improperly publish victim information: "Notably, several other publicly available AI tools that generate content by analyzing online sources, such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity, provided no victim-related information whatsoever in similar repeated testing."This latest lawsuit comes on the heels of a damning Los Angeles jury ruling that found both Meta and Google-owned YouTube liable for "designing products that addict and harm children," prioritizing online engagement over the well-being of their users. At the time of writing, Google has not issued a public statement on the lawsuit, but a verdict in this trial could set important precedents for privacy protections in the age of AI, with implications that would ripple across the tech landscape.

Welcome to your guide to Pips, the latest game in the New York Times catalogue.Released in August 2025, the Pips puts a unique spin on dominoes, creating a fun single-player experience that could become your next daily gaming habit.Currently, if you're stuck, the game only offers to reveal the entire puzzle, forcing you to move onto the next difficulty level and start over. However, we have you covered! Below are piecemeal answers that will serve as hints so that you can find your way through each difficulty level.How to play PipsIf you've ever played dominoes, you'll have a passing familiarity for how Pips is played. As we've shared in our previous hints stories for Pips, the tiles, like dominoes, are placed vertically or horizontally and connect with each other. The main difference between a traditional game of dominoes and Pips is the color-coded conditions you have to address. The touching tiles don't necessarily have to match. SEE ALSO: Wordle today: Answer, hints for March 28, 2026 The conditions you have to meet are specific to the color-coded spaces. For example, if it provides a single number, every side of a tile in that space must add up to the number provided. It is possible – and common – for only half a tile to be within a color-coded space.Here are common examples you'll run into across the difficulty levels:Number: All the pips in this space must add up to the number.Equal: Every domino half in this space must be the same number of pips.Not Equal: Every domino half in this space must have a completely different number of pips.Less than: Every domino half in this space must add up to less than the number.Greater than: Every domino half in this space must add up to more than the number.If an area does not have any color coding, it means there are no conditions on the portions of dominoes within those spaces.

As Mashable's tech editor, it's my job to test the latest and greatest products from brands like Apple, Samsung, and DJI. But I also get to test cool under-the-radar finds and random gadgets only true tech nerds know about. For day two of the Amazon Big Spring Sale, I hand-picked a fresh batch of tech deals that are actually worth shopping. I've also included some deals from competing retailers — if they have a better price.

Pro creators and YouTubers are obsessed with this camera (in my review, I wrote, "it should replace whatever vlogging camera you're using now"), so grab it before it goes out of stock again!

The best Amazon Spring Sale deals on Bose: Best noise cancelling deal Bose QuietComfort Headphones $249 (save $100) Shop Now Best Premium Deal Bose QuietComfort Ultra Bluetooth Headphones $399 (save $50) Shop Now Best earbuds deal Bose Ultra Open Earbuds $229 (save $70) Shop Now Bose is late to the party, but the popular audio tech brand is finally getting involved in Amazon’s Big Spring Sale. There are now deals on three of its best models: the flagship QuietComfort over-ear headphones, premium QuietComfort Ultra headphones, and the innovative Bose Ultra Open Earbuds.While none of these are currently at their lowest-ever price, they’re still at significant discounts for such high-ticket headphones. These join a stack of other deals on headphones in the Big Spring Sale, which runs through March 31. We’ll keep tracking deals on headphones throughout the sale, so if you’re specifically looking for Bose discounts, keep tabs on this page as the Big Spring Sale continues.Best Bose headphones deal Opens in a new window Credit: Bose Bose QuietComfort Headphones $249 at Amazon $349 Save $100   Get Deal Why we like itThe Bose QuietComfort Headphones are tried and tested and well-regarded — they're one of the go-to models for tech-savvy music lovers. They boast highly-rated active noise cancellation with two ANC modes — Quiet mode to shut out external noise completely and Aware mode that keeps you in tune with your surroundings. The sound is excellent and customisable via EQ settings on the Bose Music. Oh, and did we mention they look super stylish and available in lots of colorways? These are headphones that make a streetwise statement. That’s all reflected in the usual price point of $349, which makes this $100 discount a sweet-sounding offer.Best Bose premium headphones deal Opens in a new window Credit: Bose Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones $399 at Amazon $449 Save $50   Get Deal Why we like itThe Bose QuietComfort Ultra are an upgrade of the brand’s flagship headphones thanks to added spatialized audio — 3D audio technology that places the sound all around you for a fully immersive listening experience. They also boast Bose’s signature noise cancellation, which combines with spatialized audio to create next-level Immersion and Cinema modes. And the noise cancellation isn’t just active, it’s adaptive, which means it reacts to your surroundings and adjusts in real time. This isn’t their lowest price — they previously dropped to $379 — but they’re now just $20 shy of that mark.Best Bose earbuds deal Opens in a new window Credit: Bose Bose Ultra Open Earbuds $229 at Amazon $299 Save $70   Get Deal Why we like itA Big Spring Sale discount on the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds is very welcome indeed. These babies are pricey for earbuds but for good reason: They’re a premium, innovative addition to the still-developing open earbud category. Rather than jam into your ear canal and close you off from the outside world, they clip to your ear and use OpenAudio tech to deliver immersive spatialised sound. You can still hear your surroundings but there’s no audio leakage. Your tunes are totally private. As with the QuietComfort Ultra they’re just $20 off their lowest-ever price, with a current saving of $70 on offer.

SAVE 37%: As of March 28, you can get the Sony WH-CH520 wireless headphones in black for $42.95, down from $69.99. The other colors are also on sale, priced at $48. Opens in a new window Credit: Sony Sony WH-CH520 Wireless Headphones $42.95 at Amazon $69.99 Save $27.04   Get Deal If you prefer on-ear headphones over earbuds (I hate how those little drivers feel crammed in my ears, too!), Mashable's Alex Bracetti says the Sony WH-CH520 are the best headphones under $50, period. At just $42.95 during Amazon's Big Spring Sale (a 37% drop from the $69.90 list price), they're an easy and affordable recommendation. Previously, we recommended these headphones at their $48 sale price, but as of March 28, the black model has dropped even lower. (The pink, yellow, and brown versions are still priced at $48.) SEE ALSO: Amazon Big Spring Sale 2026: Live updates on the top deals The Sony WH-CH520 offer up to 50 hours of playtime on a single charge, and if you forget to plug them in, a quick three-minute charge will buy you another 1.5 hours of listening time. While they don't have active noise cancellation or a 3.5mm audio jack for wired listening, they still deliver a sound profile that is "nicely balanced," where "deep lows blend well with transparent mids and crisp highs." They also feature Sony's DSEE technology to upscale compressed music files. "This technology upscales the clarity and depth on all tracks — no matter the format — achieving near-hi-res quality when playing stored files or streaming music online," writes Bracetti.Even though the plastic construction feels a bit flimsy and the on-ear design lets in some ambient noise, getting Sony's proprietary sound tech and multipoint Bluetooth connection (so you can connect to two devices at the same time) makes them an unbeatable value at this price.
