The Dyson V15 Detect Plus cordless vacuum is $180 off for Prime Day
Near the record-low price for this model. $570 at Amazon
We loved the Dyson V15 Detect and it earned a slot in our best cordless vacuums guide. The Plus model on sale during Prime Day is the same vacuum with more accessories. The suction power on the V15 Detect Plus is really impressive, especially for a cordless vacuum. For anyone with pets, good suction should be a strong consideration when selecting a vacuum, and we were thoroughly impressed with the pet hair this model picked up in our tests from both hardwood and carpet.
The Fluffy Optic hard surface cleaning head comes with a laser that illuminates the ground in front of you as you vacuum. It does a frighteningly good job of highlighting just how much dust, hair and other debris have collected on your hardwood or tile floors that you might not have seen. For a shocking look at just how much stuff is on your floors, try vacuuming with the lights off.
The V15 Detect Plus gets its namesake from a handy LCD display screen on the main body of the vacuum that tells you exactly how many particles across different size ranges the vacuum has detected since you started cleaning. In practice, this doesn't add anything to the functionality of the device, but it sheds a light on just how much stuff you've picked up.

Looks Like Amazon Is Offloading Apple Watch Ultra 2, Now at a New Record Low Price
Amazon is (aggressively) clearing out its Apple inventory during the final week of July, and it offers the best deals we've ever seen on Apple products. These aren't just typical discounts: these are new, unprecedented low prices that have never been reached before. MacBook Air 2025 models have dropped to all-time record lows that set a new value standard, and the latest Apple Watch Ultra 2 (with GPS + Cellular) now begins at an all-time record price of $649, from $799. With Apple's flagship store itself now having no discounts for these devices, Amazon is the only option if you want to get your Apple gear at prices that are totally unbeatable. See at Amazon The Apple Watch Ultra 2 is meant for athletes who demand reliable performance on the wrist: Its 49mm titanium case offers lightweight yet rugged construction that can take heavy use and harsh conditions without adding bulk. The watch features precise GPS with multiple satellite systems support, and it offers great location tracking in demanding conditions. With cellular connectivity, you stay connected without needing to carry your phone, ideal for extended runs. It includes a variety of sensors that monitor various activities closely: You can track your swim workout because it is waterproof, and running, cycling, hiking, and even more labor-intensive sports like triathlons. It provides accurate fitness information like heart rate, blood oxygen level, and change in elevation. The Action Button offers customizable controls so you can quickly tap into your favorite features in the middle of a workout without interruption. Battery life has likewise been significantly enhanced with the Ultra 2 designed to last longer even under heavy usage. Whether you're away on a multi-day adventure or you simply want a watch that you can rely on to see you through the day, its extended battery life ensures that you won't be desperately searching for the charger. The Blue Ocean strap (see picture above) that is included with this watch is rugged and soft which is perfect for hard wear but adding a flash of color to the watch that sets it apart visually. Since prices in the Apple store do not offer any discount, making the most of this offer on Amazon saves you the pleasure of world-class tech at a lower cost. See at Amazon

The Gamesir G7 Pro Is Almost the Perfect Pro Controller... Almost
GameSir G7 Pro Controller $80 at Amazon Pros Sleek design Great ergonomics Solid hardware Good accessories included Cons Basic software Limited design customizations No wireless Xbox support GameSir G7 Pro Controller $80 at Amazon The term "pro" gets thrown around a lot, especially with tech gear, and it typically refers to a version of something with more features or more power than a stripped-down base model. When it comes to controllers, it's generally used to describe one with features such as extra remappable buttons, the ability to connect to multiple platforms and, of course, Hall Effect joysticks. Well, kind of. More on that later. GameSir has been making controllers for several years now. Unfortunately, they've been a bit hit-or-miss in terms of quality. Some, like the Super Nova, knock it out of the park, while others, like the Cyclone 2, just aren't impressive. However, I'm happy to say its new G7 Pro controller has rightfully earned the "pro" in its name. Design CNET/Jason Cockerham The G7 Pro has a nearly identical design to the original G7, which in turn was similar to Xbox's own controller. That's a good thing, as the Xbox controller has been one of the best ergonomically designed controllers for many years. The grips are one of the most noticeable upgrades from the G7. They made the top and bottom out of different materials for the Pro, which is genius. The plastic top makes it smoother to slide my palms around and less sweaty as I reach for different buttons. The rubberized bottom grips give me a firm hold on the controller. They aren't the first ones to do this, but that attention to detail is welcome. Another neat detail is that all the included accessories, including a docking station, wireless dongle, USB-C cable and cable retainer, all match the color of the controller. Not many companies do that, and I appreciate it. CNET/Jason Cockerham The controller also looks clean. As nice as the Panda motif is on the original Xbox controller, the dual-tone gray and white of the G7 Pro is just cool. There's also a black version with a red gradient faceplate if you want to go that route. The tops of the grips and the middle faceplate all magnetically detach from the controller, giving you a cool look at the innards. One big miss in my opinion is the lack of RGB lighting, especially since the entire top under the faceplate, as well as the triggers, buttons and extra mini bumpers, are all transparent. That could have been an awesome extra addition, but there's no additional lighting other than a ring around the Xbox button. Hardware CNET/Jason Cockerham The G7 Pro comes equipped with a lot of great hardware, including GameSir's TMR, or Tunneling Magnetoresistance, joysticks. TMR is essentially an upgraded version of the Hall Effect, which supposedly offers greater durability and responsiveness. TMR thumbsticks are still fairly new, but so far I'm enjoying them. While the thumbsticks use TMR, the triggers use Hall Effect, and there are even physical trigger stops to switch from analog Hall Effect triggers to micro switch triggers for faster response times. Ever since I first used a controller with physical trigger stops, I can't play without them. Speaking of micro switches, the "ABXY" buttons are optical micro switches, and the four-way D-pad has mechanical micro switches. The D-pad is the weakest part of the controller for me. It feels a bit too mushy, and even though GameSir includes three different caps, including a smooth circle hoping to mimic an eight-way D-pad, it's just not great. It's also insanely responsive, and I occasionally accidentally pressed one of the directions while gaming. It's not a deal breaker, but something to note. Rounding out the hardware are two mappable back buttons (which can be locked if you don't want to use them) and two mini bumpers up top, much like the Razer Wolverine V3 Pro, which is more than twice the price of the G7 Pro. At the bottom is a 3.5mm headphone jack, a mute button for the mic and a pairing button for the wireless connections. Connectivity CNET/Jason Cockerham The G7 Pro supports PC gaming via 2.4GHz wireless, Android over Bluetooth and Xbox over wired USB-C. It's nice to see support for more than one platform, but GameSir could have done better here. The lack of Xbox Wireless support is likely a licensing issue, and not paying for it helps keep costs down, but I certainly would pay a few dollars more to have it. The lack of iOS and Switch support is a big miss here as well. Again, I'm sure it's partially a licensing thing and partially to encourage folks to buy another controller for different platforms, but it's still not optimal. GameSir is absolutely targeting the Xbox gamers here, so it's not a huge surprise that those other platforms miss out. Software It's not the prettiest, but it works Jason Cockerham/CNET Any controller attempting to call itself "pro" these days needs to have, at the very least, remappable buttons and trigger and joystick dead zones. Most, including the G7 Pro, give you quite a few more options than that in their accompanying software apps. GameSir's Nexus app is available for Android, PC and Xbox and gives you granular controls over almost every aspect of the controller. You can even store up to four different profiles for custom setups for your favorite games. The software is basic in terms of UI, but to GameSir's credit, I've never had any issues with the app. Sure, it doesn't look flashy, but it works better than some others I've used, and I'd rather function over form any day. Easy to recommend In the end, I have no problems recommending the G7 Pro to anyone looking for an upgraded Xbox or PC controller. The hardware is great, and while it's not as colorful as some other options, the design is clean. It's got all the features you could ever want, including TMR thumbsticks, Hall Effect triggers and extra remappable buttons. All that's missing is wireless Xbox support. The included 10-foot USB-C cable was plenty long for me, however, so I didn't mind. Plus: No recharging. The best part is you get all of this for $80. While that's still a lot of money, I haven't come across many other controllers that give you such a complete package at that price. Sure, you can pay more for a couple of extra buttons, an eight-way D-pad or wireless Xbox support, but at the end of the day, the G7 Pro is a fantastic controller for anyone looking to explore the world of pro controllers.
