Dyson Memorial Day deals include $200 off the 360 Vis Nav robot vacuum

Engadget23-05-2025

This Memorial Day deal sucks… in a good way. The Dyson 360 Vis Nav may have the best suction of any robot vacuum. This purple dirt eater usually retails for $1,000. But you can get it for a mere $800 this holiday weekend. That's a record low.
The deal is featured on Dyson's website and Amazon. Even the world-famous Ginsu knife Mecca, QVC, got in on the action.
Save $200 on the powerful robovac. $800 at Dyson
Dyson says the 360 Vis Nav sucks debris as well as its cordless stick vacuums. The company claims it's twice as powerful as any of its competitors. For the technically minded, it offers 22,000 Pa/pascals of suction pressure. In short, that's a lot. Your dirty, pet-hair-infested floor won't stand a chance.
The D-shaped robovac has a little actuator protruding from its sides. It's an alternative to the side sweepers on competing models. The little duct only opens when cleaning edges and corners. Valentina Palladino for Engadget
In addition to its suction, the vacuum's most impressive feature is its obstacle avoidance. Engadget's Valentina Palladino tested it with small objects left on the floor, but the Dyson never got stuck. Many competitors run into all sorts of obstacles on a typical run.
There are a few drawbacks. The 360 Vis Nav doesn't mop. It also lacks an auto-emptying dust bin. (Although doing it manually is quick and easy.) It also lacks LiDAR. That means mapping your home can be slower and vacuuming at night won't be as smooth. What this model offers is the best suction possible and top-notch obstacle avoidance. And for $200 off its retail price, that's not too shabby.

Google Buyouts Could Point to More Tech Layoffs, as Sector Faces Heavy Job Losses

Google extended buyout offers to more employees this week, marking the latest move by Big Tech firms to lower headcounts. It may not be the last, as companies face pressure to reduce spending amid macroeconomic uncertainty. Microsoft, Amazon, and Intel are among others that recently announced or are reportedly planning extended buyout offers to more employees this week, marking the latest move by Big Tech firms to lower headcounts. It may not be the last, as companies face pressure to reduce spending amid an uncertain economic environment, while also investing in AI infrastructure. Tech has seen an exodus in 2025. The sector has announced nearly 75,000 job cuts in 2025 as of the end of May, according to a report last week from Challenger, Gray & Christmas, up from about 55,000 cuts in the same period in 2024. Within the last two months alone, reports emerged that Microsoft (MSFT) is looking to cut 3% of its global workforce, or roughly 7,000 jobs, and Amazon (AMZN) reportedly trimmed about 100 jobs in its devices and services unit. Intel (INTC) intends to cut a whopping 20% of its workforce this year, as the embattled chipmaker attempts to turn around its business. While software and cloud giants like Microsoft and Google parent Alphabet (GOOGL) may be seen as better-equipped to weather tariff-fueled uncertainty than many other companies with more direct exposure, worries about the economy in the face of rapidly shifting trade policies could still hold back demand, analysts have warned. Another factor at play is huge AI infrastructure investments announced by Microsoft, Alphabet and others. That spending puts greater pressure on profit margins, D.A. Davidson analyst Gil Luria told Investopedia, meaning companies 'are either keeping lower levels of hiring for personnel, or even sometimes taking action to reduce personnel.' Advancements also make it possible for companies to rely on smaller teams of software developers, Luria added. Microsoft, for example, has said it plans to spend $80 billion in capital expenditures this year. Luria estimates that for every year Microsoft invests at current levels, there are 10,000 positions the company could have to either let go unfilled or cut.

This JBL PartyBox Club 120 Speaker Is Cheaper Than Last Prime Day, No Need to Wait for Upcoming Sales

We can all agree that Summer is here, right? Sure, it might not be the kind of Summer we're all excited about, but the season of long days, BBQs, and big old get-togethers is upon us. It's just nice to get outdoors and spend time with friends and family, and one key part of all of these things is music. That's where this JBL PartyBox Club 120 portable party speaker comes in, and it's currently $100 off on Amazon. This thing is an excellent way to boost the vibes at any party, no matter where you are or who you're with. Music is the way to set basically any mood, and this speaker is one of the easiest ways to do that indoors, outdoors, or if you're in a secret third space. See at Amazon Get That Music Pumping The most obvious thing to note here is the sound itself. The speaker packs in 5.25-inch woofers and 2.25-inch tweeters to allow it to output excellent sound with a decent range and a good mix of highs and lows. You'll be able to pump the bass as needed, but also enjoy more chilled-out music, if that's what you're after. It helps better the general atmosphere with a visual display too, and can manage a few different lighting effects, all of which can sync to the music it's playing, which helps really cement the immersion. It's portable too, which is great because it means you can carry it around using the foldaway handle, and then just plonk it down wherever you feel like. The battery life is pretty spectacular as well, as it can last up to 12 hours on a single charge, and if you're in a rush, a 10-minute fast charge can still get you an extra 80 minutes of playback. That's great for those who often forget to prepare for things ahead of time. It's splash proof too, with an IPX4 rating, which means that a little bit of rain, a little bit of tide, or a little bit of pool party won't ruin your fun. The cherry on top is that it has dual mic and guitar inputs, which means that if you or your friends are really talented, or in a state where you're feeling like you are, you can hook into this thing and sing or play along. The speaker can't make you sound better, but you'll probably have fun with it all, so who cares? Plus, with it being $100 off, and only $300 as a result, it's a great investment for your good times.

Prime Video reportedly shows almost twice as many ads as it used to

If it feels like you spend a lot more time watching ads in Prime Video than you used to, that may not be a mistake. Amazon has increased the number of ads or "ad load" in Prime Video to four-to-six minutes of ads per hour, Adweek reports. Amazon's plan to increase the amount of advertising in its streaming service was previously reported in October 2024. Shifting to a max of six minutes of ads per hour is nearly double the up to three-and-a-half minutes of ads that could play when Amazon first converted its basic Prime Video subscription to an ad-supported tier. The company used to offer all of Prime Video's features and an ad-free experience for the cost of Amazon Prime ($159 per year / $15 per month) or $9 per month, but announced at the end of 2023 that avoiding ads would cost an extra $3 every month. Besides inserting ads, Amazon's basic plan also doesn't support for features like Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision. Engadget has reached out to Amazon to confirm the ad load changes and will update this article if we hear back. Regardless of your tolerance for ads, cheaper ad-supported subscriptions have quickly become expected from most streaming services. Netflix, Max, Peacock and Paramount+ all offer subscriptions with ads. Even Apple, who could theoretically afford to lose money on subscriptions, reportedly started building a team to sell ads for a possible ad-supported tier of Apple TV+ in 2023. While adding more interruptions to the Prime Video experience isn't what anyone wants, Adweek does note that streaming services still insert far fewer ad breaks than broadcast TV. The ad load on traditional television "typically ranges from 13 to 16 minutes per hour."
