Amazon Deals of the Day: Don't Miss a Record Low on the Latest M4 Mac Mini
Amazon sells tons of products, with new ones arriving daily. The retail giant carries everything from home essentials to tech gear and wellness items. As much as it loves adding new products, Amazon also loves cutting prices. Deciding which deals are worth grabbing (and which aren't) is a full-time job -- our job, specifically. That's why we scope out the top deals for you.
Today, we spotted the Apple M4 Mac Mini down to a record-low price, saving you over $100. We also found the Baseus laptop power bank for more than half off, plus you'll get a cool freebie too. And finally for the Harry Potter fans, the Hagrid's Hut Lego set is down to a new low price, saving you $15.
The M4 Mac Mini is a tiny yet powerful desktop. It's made with an ultracompact design but doesn't compromise on the strong performance. It is also equipped with an ample amount of ports and even supports up to three displays. It's great for everyone, from those looking for a simple home office computer to those who are using high-powered creative tools. It comes with Apple's coveted M4 chip along with 10‑core CPU and 10‑core GPU. You get 16GB of unified memory and 256GB of SSD. It also uses Apple's AI features, too. And for the environmentally conscious, this M4 Mac Mini is the first carbon neutral Mac. It normally retails for $599 but right now you can score one for $489, saving you $110 off the sticker price. This is also a new record low.
Oftentimes when we're away from home, we use portable power banks to keep our devices powered up. This usually works for small devices like cell phones, headphones and some tablets. But to keep a laptop powered, you'll need something with a little more juice than your average power bank. The Baseus laptop power bank has a 20,000mAh capacity. This means it can charge even a MacBook Pro 16. It has an LED display that shows you the remaining battery level, charging power and charging/recharging time. It's compatible with MacBooks, Dells, iPads, AirPods and more. And with multiple ports, you can charge up to four devices at once. Right now, you can score $70 off the normal price of $130, bringing your cost down to $60. But that's not all. When you purchase this laptop power bank, you can score the Baseus Picogo ultra slim power bank for free. This is a $35 value which bumps your savings up to $105. Simply add both items to your cart and the discount will automatically apply.
Calling all Harry Potter fans. The Hagrid's Hut Lego set comes with seven Lego Harry Potter characters. This includes Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Draco Malfoy, Rubeus Hagrid mini figures, and Lego figures of Norbert the dragon and Hagrid's dog, Fang. It also comes with two of the 14 random Hogwarts collectible portraits. It's made for ages eight and up, meaning the whole family can enjoy building the hut. It has 896 pieces. Plus, the hut can open up and the roof can lift up, creating space for open play. Normally, $75, this Lego set is down to $60 right now, a record-low price.
With so many deals on Amazon, deciding which ones are worth your money can be difficult. But CNET combs through what the world's largest online retailer has to offer and gathers the best deals for you.

Sunrise Spirits Will Bring Classic Mecha Toys To Western Fans
Sunrise Spirits is a new toy brand for classic mecha anime. Sunrise is responsible for most of the major mecha anime ever made, and Bandai Spirits is now looking to honor this legacy with a new toy brand. Heading up this new Sunrise Spirits initiative is Yoshinari Kimura, Assistant Manager on the Robot Product Planning Team at Bandai Spirits. Following the increased accessibility and popularity of Sunrise mecha anime outside of Japan, Kimura wanted to ensure that Western fans weren't left behind. 'Given that people can now easily discover and watch Sunrise titles through social media, the official YouTube channel, and an ever-increasing selection of streaming platforms, we felt it was important to build an accessible solution for fans to purchase Sunrise merchandise. Through this initiative, we wanted to create a 'three-dimensional portal' for fans, both new and old. Furthermore, we wanted to clarify where people were able to purchase our products and figure out what would be necessary for us to sell them on an ongoing basis. The Tamashii Nations store in New York is one of many outside Japan. 'After carefully analyzing the balance between supply and demand, we concluded that the best way forward was to sell products through our own stores and an official online shop. Finally, when thinking about how to present the lineup within our stores in an accessible manner, we settled on the project name: Sunrise Spirits. 'The purpose of Sunrise Spirits is to serve as an entry point for both new fans and those who already have fond memories of Sunrise titles, and to maintain our lineup as a permanent platform. Thanks to our fans' passionate support, we have already expanded our presence to eight stores in Japan and another eight official Tamashii Nations store locations overseas, including New York City.' FEATURED | Frase ByForbes™ Unscramble The Anagram To Reveal The Phrase Pinpoint By Linkedin Guess The Category Queens By Linkedin Crown Each Region Crossclimb By Linkedin Unlock A Trivia Ladder Considering the depth and breadth of Sunrise mecha anime, the Sunrise Spirits brand has its work cut out for it, but it's already well on its way to covering off some of the more major titles. 'We currently have seven products available for purchase, including five from 1980s-era series such as Dunbine, Dougram, and Xabungle (shown below), as well as Zegapain from the 2000s. In addition to developing this extensive lineup, we have also updated each product's key visuals to make them more appealing to a wider audience. The classic mecha Xabungle is also getting the Sunrise Spirits treatment. 'In addition, we also plan on adding Robot Spirits Villkiss from the 2010s anime Cross Ange to our lineup in 2025. There are numerous exciting animated series out there, so we plan to continue exploring product lineups that cater to different age groups while reviewing the status of existing items. 'We really want our overseas fans to enjoy the same purchasing experience and potential for discovery that are available to Japanese consumers. With characters becoming something of a global language these days, we feel it is important to offer both virtual and real-world entry points and touchpoints. 'In the years to come, we expect that continued internet and social media usage will result in decreased language barriers and a more border-free world. As manufacturers of physical goods, we believe it will be increasingly important for us to offer a platform where fans can purchase our products. Our goal is to create opportunities for consumers to experience, across numerous contexts, the reassurance of purchasing products on-demand directly from an official supplier. Additionally, with initiatives like the Sunrise Robot Laboratory, we can now explore new ways to present and share classic series. In 2025, Sunrise Spirits will feature products from both Walker Gallia and Xabungle. We look forward to people visiting our stores and checking out these exciting new releases for themselves. In the meantime, we hope fans will continue to enjoy and support our work.' Sunrise Spirits toy releases are currently available at the Tamashii Nations New York store as well as online via Amazon.

It's straightforward to use as well, offering offline reading capabilities, adjustable fonts, and simple highlighting. If your primary goal is distraction-free reading of saved articles, Instapaper is worth a look.
