Get the Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 For Just $10 More Than the Black Friday Price
The earbuds offer noticeably improved sound quality and noise cancellation compared to their predecessor. They're built with Google's powerful Tensor A1 chip and designed to offer powerful, immersive sound. It's the first time a Google Tensor chip has been featured in any earbuds, and the result is robust active noise cancellation and advanced sound.
The Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 earbuds deliver deep bass with 11mm drivers built in, and they have a new high-frequency chamber for a smoother treble. CNET Editor David Carnoy noted that compared to the original Pixel Buds Pro, "there's more depth and richness to the sound with better overall definition and extension."

These buds also got a design upgrade. Google made the earbuds 27% smaller and 24% lighter to provide a design that securely fits even more ear types. If you want to wear them during workouts, there is a twist-to-adjust stabilizer to help lock your earbuds in place while you're moving around and sweating.
There's also a conversation detection feature that pauses your music and switches your earbuds to the transparency mode if you start talking. And with an impressive 30-hour battery life, you can listen to all your favorite songs, audiobooks and podcasts for hours on end without having to recharge.
Why this deal matters
At $189, these earbuds are a great buy with advanced active noise cancellation, impressive sound quality and a lengthy battery life. The current deal is only $10 more than the sale pricing we saw during Black Friday last year, and it's unlikely we'll see them drop lower anytime soon. But it's still a great deal on great buds.

Why AppLovin Stock Was Gaining Today
Key Points Meta's revenue grew 22% in the second quarter, reflecting strong ad demand. That and Microsoft's strong quarter could bode well for AppLovin, as the high-growth stock is set to report Q2 earnings next week. Analysts are expecting earnings per share to double to $2.32. 10 stocks we like better than AppLovin › Shares of AppLovin (NASDAQ: APP), the fast-growing adtech company, were soaring today even as there was no news out on the company. Instead, the stock seemed to benefit from a wave of bullish sentiment for artificial intelligence (AI) and digital advertising stocks after strong reports from both Meta Platforms and Microsoft last night. As a result, AppLovin stock was up 8.2% as of 12:53 p.m. ET, while those two big tech stocks gained as well. AppLovin rides Meta's coattails Strong results from Meta in particular seemed to benefit AppLovin, as Meta's report showed off healthy demand in the digital advertising market. Revenue jumped 22% to $47.5 billion, and advertising made up 98% of its revenue, showing strong demand for ads on Facebook and Instagram. Meta credited AI improvements for driving both growth in ad impressions and an increase in the price per ad, reflecting increased demand and ROI. That trend, along with Microsoft's strong quarterly numbers, set off a wave of bullishness for stocks like AppLovin, which is high-priced and high-growth and offers exposure to both adtech and AI. In fact, AppLovin may be ahead of the curve in AI-driven advertising, as its AI-powered recommendation engine, Axon, has been a key source of growth for the company recently. What's next for AppLovin? As an expensive, high-growth stock, AppLovin tends to be volatile, and today's gains reflect an improved perception of its future growth ahead of its own earnings report on Aug. 6. Investors are expecting 13% revenue growth to $1.22 billion in the quarter, though that includes the sale of its mobile apps business. Excluding that, organic growth will be much stronger. On the bottom line, analysts expect earnings per share to essentially double to $2.32, a better reflection of the underlying growth in the business. The stock has the potential to pop again if it can beat those estimates. Do the experts think AppLovin is a buy right now?

Microsoft is killing its failed ChromeOS competitor, Windows 11 SE
Microsoft is ending support for its ChromeOS competitor Windows 11 SE. The company will officially stop providing "software updates, technical assistance and security fixes" in October 2026, according to an updated support document spotted by NeoWin. When it was announced in 2021, Windows 11 SE was pitched as a simplified, lightweight version of Microsoft's operating system for the classroom. Chromebooks and ChromeOS devices are widely used in schools around the world, so it made sense that Microsoft would want to offer something competitive. Windows 11 SE, and the Surface Laptop SE that launched alongside it, were the company's latest attempt to do just that. Clearly the plan didn't work, as evidenced by Microsoft's decision to shutdown Windows 11 SE just five years later. The operating system was available on other low-cost devices, but it doesn't appear that it acquired nearly the same-sized audience as ChromeOS. If it had, Microsoft likely wouldn't be dumping it so unceremoniously. Windows 11 SE isn't the first time Microsoft has tried to spin-off a more efficient version of Windows, though it did seem like the most thought out. For example, the company has also tried Windows 10 S (which lives on as "S Mode" in Windows 11) and the never-launched Windows 10X, a streamlined version of Windows for dual-screen devices. While Windows 11 SE devices will work after Microsoft's October 2026 cut-off, the company recommends "transitioning to a device that supports another edition of Windows 11 to ensure continued support and security."
