At $114, Google's first-gen Pixel Buds Pro have hit a new best price ever.
The Pixel Buds Pro may not be Google's newest earbuds, but they still have a lot to offer, especially at this all-time low price.
While Google's first-gen Pixel Buds Pro have been on the market for a few years now, they still hold up well, and Amazon has them marked down to just $114. This is the lowest price the Pixel Buds Pro have seen, and it makes for a savings of $86 from their regular $200 price. This all-time low price is limited to the Coral colored Pixel Buds Pro, but every color is available at a pretty impressive discount.
The Pixel Buds Pro were Google's flagship earbuds for several years, and while there are newer wireless earbuds on the market, we think the Pixel Buds Pro still stack up against them pretty well. They have ANC with a fit that adapts to your ear shape, ensuring external sounds are blocked out to help you focus on your work or to drop more deeply into your music.
Sound quality is also impressive with the Pixel Buds Pro. They'll outperform much of what you find among the many cheap wireless earbuds on the market, with custom 11mm speaker drivers. They also have Volume EQ, which maximizes audio performance even at high volume levels. This makes the Pixel Buds Pro a great option for kicking back with music, but also for pairing with your laptop or home theater while you watch a movie.
These are also a set of earbuds you can get active with. They're IPX4 water-resistant, so they can withstand sweat during workouts as well as light rain during a run. The Pixel Buds Pro can reach up to 11 hours of continuous listening time on a single battery charge, and with the included charging case you'll get an additional 31 hours of playback. These are great all-purpose earbuds, offering the kind of versatility typically reserved for more expensive options.
If you want the latest and greatest, the Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 are out there as well. But if you're looking for some great value in a set of wireless earbuds, the original Pixel Buds Pro are down to $114 at Amazon. This is the lowest price they've ever seen, and it's good for $86 in savings.

10 Android automation tips to simplify your daily routine
Many people don't know that they can automate certain tasks on their Android devices. These automations can save them time and streamline their workflows, and they only take a few taps to set up. It can take some trial and error to figure out which automations work for you, but the good news is that we have 10 of them you can try right now. Note: We are using a Samsung Galaxy phone for this guide. Due to Android phones having different user interfaces, depending on the manufacturer, the steps might be slightly different on your device. If you have a well-defined work schedule, automating when Do Not Disturb (DND) mode turns on and off ensures uninterrupted focus during those times. Here's how you can set it up: Now you need to choose what the mode does. Follow the steps below: You might need to send a message later, but you might not always remember to do so. Luckily, your Android allows you to schedule it to go out at a specific time in case you're tied up. Open the Messages app and compose your message as you normally would. Instead of sending the message, do this instead: Setting up a bedtime mode on your phone ensures you can sleep through the night without interruptions from your Android phone. It simply silences notifications and minimizes distractions automatically. To set it up, you will need to create a sleep routine. Follow the steps below: Enabling Google Autofill can save precious time by automatically filling in forms, passwords and payment details across apps and websites.

First, let's create the routine with the steps below: Automation isn't just about convenience. It's about creating habits that improve the way your Android phone works for you, especially in scenarios where it seems like it's working against you (e.g., causing too many distractions).

Google should learn from this rumored Apple Watch app upgrade
Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority TL;DR Apple's watchOS 26 could bring third-party widgets to the Control Center on Apple Watches. We really hope Wear OS gains this feature eventually as it would be extremely useful. Apple and Google are both working on their next smartwatch operating system updates, namely watchOS 26 and Wear OS 6 respectively. However, it now sounds like Apple is working on a great feature we'd love to see on Wear OS watches. 9to5Mac reports that watchOS 26 will offer third-party widgets in the Control Center. The outlet adds that this would let users 'surface relevant actions or data' from said apps. That would be major news as the Control Center on Apple Watches only supports first-party toggles like cellular functionality, the flashlight, Wi-Fi, and battery-related info. We really hope Google copies this feature and brings it to Wear OS smartwatches in the future. Android phones have long supported third-party tiles in Quick Settings, allowing users to quickly toggle their VPN service, activate Link to Windows, identify songs, and more. So bringing this feature to smartwatches seems like a logical expansion. It's likely too late for this feature to come to Wear OS 6, but the upcoming update still has some notable improvements. This includes a Material 3 Expressive visual style, up to 10% better battery life, and a much-improved always-on display. Got a tip? Talk to us! Email our staff at Email our staff at news@ .

Is Amazon Paying $4 Billion to Break Up With UPS?
Amazon is planning to spend up to $4 billion to enhance its ability to deliver in rural areas. The e-commerce giant has forged a partnership with FedEx on the delivery front. United Parcel Service is dramatically reducing its relationship with Amazon. 10 stocks we like better than Amazon › Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) is an online retail powerhouse, selling and delivering its own products and acting as a middleman for other retailers. The company's delivery trucks are ubiquitous in some areas of the country. But it has even bigger aspirations when it comes to getting products to customers. So why did United Parcel Service (NYSE: UPS) decide to stop handling as many Amazon deliveries? As with any good breakup drama, the story between Amazon and UPS, as United Parcel Service is called for short, is hard to call. UPS says that the Amazon business it was doing was high volume, but low margin. That meant that it didn't add enough to the bottom line to make it worth the top-line benefit. UPS says it plans to step away from half of the business it does with Amazon over the next couple of years. That effort is in keeping with UPS' goal of improving the quality of its business. But management highlighted that it will still work with Amazon on some things. Notably, Amazon is increasingly good at delivering its own wares, but it doesn't have a strong handle on returns. With a large retail store network, UPS can still provide return services to Amazon at an attractive return for UPS shareholders. So the relationship isn't dead -- it's just different. Or, you could say, they will still be friends. UPS' decision to put limits on its relationship with Amazon is a problem for Amazon. While it is true that Amazon has been growing its distribution capabilities, it now has to step up more quickly than it might have planned. To that end, Amazon recently announced that it was making a capital investment of up to $4 billion to enhance its ability to make rural deliveries. And it inked a deal with UPS' peer FedEx (NYSE: FDX), where that carrier will handle larger packages for Amazon. The market saw all of this as a win for FedEx and a loss for UPS. For Amazon, it wasn't too big a deal, noting that the stock is widely adored on Wall Street right now. While Amazon's stock is about 15% below its all-time high, its price-to-sales and price-to-earnings ratios are both above their five-year averages. And they are both fairly lofty on an absolute basis, as well. Still, it looks a little like Amazon is scrambling to take on the distribution services that UPS is willingly giving up. So what about UPS? The company's stock has lost more than half of its value since hitting a peak in 2022. In fact, it made the Amazon announcement just as it appeared it was getting its business back on track following a period of weakness that led to a corporate overhaul. Indeed, revenue had started to grow and margins appeared to have stabilized. Moving away from low-value Amazon business was a preemptive move made at a time when UPS had shifted from business weakness to business strength. In other words, UPS is being proactive because it sees the writing on the wall. Its Amazon business was going to keep shrinking anyway, so why not get ahead of it? The costs Amazon is incurring to make up for the loss of UPS as a delivery service is a sign that this was a big deal. But it will be a bigger deal for Amazon than UPS, since UPS was clear that the business wasn't very profitable. In fact, UPS could end up the big winner if the ability to slim down allows it to further improve its margins, even if the top line of its income statement shrinks along the way. Wall Street loves Amazon, and perhaps for good reason. But the stock is trading with a premium price tag. UPS, which could actually end up being the big winner in its breakup with Amazon, is deeply unloved. Notably, its price-to-sales and price-to-earnings ratios are well below their five-year averages. The stock's dividend yield, meanwhile, is historically high at around 6.7%. There's no question that UPS has extended the length of its turnaround by breaking up with Amazon. But the near-term pain could be exactly what it needs to rise up again. Contrarian investors, dividend investors, and value investors should all be doing a deep dive into UPS today with the idea of adding this unloved delivery service to their portfolios.
