Apple iPad (11th Gen)
Apple just updated its most affordable iPad with this 11th-generation model, and now it's at its best price yet. It's the successor to our best iPad pick and will likely dethrone the older edition once we adjust our guide, especially if this $50 discount sticks around past Memorial Day.

4 Lessons You Can Learn From Jeff Bezos' Early Amazon Stock Sales
Jeff Bezos, with an estimated net worth of $240.9 billion, is currently the fourth richest man on the planet. Most of Bezos' wealth comes from owning approximately 905 million shares in Amazon, the company he founded in 1994, took public in 1997 and helmed until 2021. But what was his Amazon stock origin story when it comes to building his wealth and shaping his fortune? Learn More: Find Out: The way Bezos handled his early stock sales set the path for decades of wealth accumulation that ultimately positioned him as the world's fourth-wealthiest person. You can use lessons from his early years and more recent business activities to help secure your own financial future. Quick Take: Amazon Stock's Current Performance Bezos' Amazon holdings have fluctuated over the years as he has acquired and sold shares. For example, last November marked the completion of a planned divestment of 25 million shares announced in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing last spring. Here are a few takeaways as to how the company's stock is currently performing: Stock price: $222.69 Market cap: $2.363 trillion 52-week high: $242.52 52-week low: $161.38 P/E ratio: 33.73 Lesson 1: Start Where You Are Bezos presumably used cash from Amazon stock sales to launch Blue Origin in 2000. And in 2017, Bezos said at an event that he sells around $1 billion worth of Amazon stock each year and uses it to fund the space company. The company is private, so its financials aren't available to the public. But even though it's entirely possible that Bezos won't live to see people colonize space, Blue Origin seems to at least be holding its own as it develops rockets and engines for commercial and government use. NASA alone has awarded Blue Origin more than half a billion dollars in contracts over the last several years. Read Next: Lesson 2: Build Wealth Through Investing, Not Saving When Bezos worked at Amazon, his salary stayed pretty stagnant at less than $82,000. But he's been selling Amazon shares since shortly after its initial public offering, according to an analysis of Bezos' stock sales. That means he has relied on money from stock sales to support his lifestyle and other business activities almost since day one, which appears to be working out for him. Meanwhile, his wealth keeps on growing because it comes mostly from his Amazon holdings. Those holdings have appreciated far more over time than a savings account balance would have, ultimately providing Bezos with more cash than he could ever hope to spend. Lesson 3: Leverage Your Investments Instead of Spending Your Salary Bezos has sold Amazon shares fairly consistently over the years, so he always has had plenty of cash to spend and invest in other businesses despite a modest salary. But as Amazon shares have increased in value, Bezos has been able to draw increasingly more cash from fewer shares, leaving all those extra shares to continue building his wealth. Raising cash by selling shares instead of increasing his salary has had the additional benefit of saving him a fortune in taxes. Whereas the highest personal income tax bracket is 35% for 2025, the top capital gains tax rate is just 20% in most cases. What's more, he pays tax on the proceeds of his stock sales rather than his accumulated wealth. For someone who has only their salary to spend, it's the equivalent of being taxed at a low rate on what you spend versus being taxed at a higher rate on everything you earn — which is exactly how wage earners are taxed. Lesson 4: Diversify Your Portfolio Considering that the cumulative gain on Amazon stock is over an estimated 157,600% since its IPO, Bezos would've done quite well had he simply kept all of his wealth in Amazon stock. But he hasn't. Through Bezos Expeditions, the family office Bezos established in 2005, Bezos invests in dozens of different companies, including his own Blue Origin and the Washington Post.

These headphones rival Sony and Bose, fans say — they're just $32 for a short time
It's no mystery why Tozo earbuds are popular — the low price and high quality make for a compelling buy. Now, the company is hitting that sweet spot again with its over-ear HT2 Headphones, on sale at Amazon. Fans compare them to higher-end options like Sony or Bose, which should tell you something: It's time to grab a pair for yourself. They're down to $32 thanks to a limited-time Lightning Deal — the lowest we've ever seen them. Why is this a good deal? 💰 Those Sony headphones we mentioned? Some of them go for nearly $400. These Tozos are less than a tenth of that price. (Even Sony's most affordable option, the WH-CH520s, are $49.) At 36% off, Tozo's HT2s are the lowest price we've seen them and, quite frankly, a no-brainer. They're also available in seven colors, though prices vary by color. Why do I need these? 🤔 Let's start with the battery life. These cans get 60 hours of playback on a single charge, which is absolutely bonkers. That's more than 700 songs or nearly 10 coast-to-coast flights. The battery life drops a bit when you use ANC (active noise cancelling), but you're still looking at about 40 hours of crisp, clear audio excellence. Don't worry, though. Even if they do manage to run out of juice, you can connect them through a wired connection to continue listening without missing a (literal) beat. The 40-millimeter drivers produce fantastic sound, including crisp high notes and clear bass. The ear cups are made of soft leather and automatically adjust to your head. The Tozo app lets you tweak the settings for different types of music. When it's time to stop listening, these fold up for easy storage and transport. What reviewers say 💬 These headphones have nearly 3,000 happy fans who vouch for their quality. Pros 👍 "These were purchased to replace a pair of Sony CH520s that got paint all over them. I think these Tozo headphones are better in every regard," one fan said. "They are comfortable (I wear glasses). The ear cups are ergonomic; each side has a range of pivot at the headpiece; the headpiece is adjustable (fits my weird head); the crown of the headpiece has nice padding. ... They sound amazing. The bass is deep without any adjustments. The sound is clearly better than the Sony." Another thrifty reviewer also wrote that the sound is on par with higher-end models. "I lost a pair of Bose over-the-ear headphones (yes, that was a painful $375 loss). I wanted to buy another set, but not at $375. Then I read about the quality and reliability of this brand, Tozo! What a wonderful surprise. The quality is comparable to my previous set." "These are amazing," echoed a third thrilled buyer. "For the price, you will not find any better headphones out there. They are comfortable, noise-cancelling is excellent and the sound quality is unsurpassed. They pair very easily, and the app lets you adjust your EQ to suit your tastes. Great buy." Cons 👎 Just because they can be used wired doesn't mean there are no strings attached (so to speak). "One downside I found was [that] the wired connection does not allow for noise cancelling. So if you are connected to something like a laptop that doesn't have Bluetooth, they will then work like regular headsets. So you may want a Bluetooth adapter in that case," shared one shopper. (If you need one, we recommend the TP-Link Bluetooth Adapter.) Another fan offered an audio-related gripe: "My only complaint is the beeping sound the headphones make when they have a low charge. I wished the sound could have been a little bit less sharp." The reviews quoted above reflect the most recent versions at the time of publication. If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.) Looking for more great Amazon tech deals? Check these out:

Amazon.com (AMZN) Partners With Sendbird To Enhance AI Capabilities And Market Reach
Sendbird Inc.'s recent collaboration with AWS marks a significant development in the AI agent space, likely aligning positively with market expectations for growth in agentic AI. During the last quarter, saw its stock price move 5%, a change that can be attributed to a combination of factors, including its robust Q2 earnings report and the completion of a substantial share repurchase program. The company's strategic partnerships and expansion initiatives, such as the $10 billion investment in North Carolina for infrastructure, complemented broader market trends, which have been buoyant with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq hitting all-time highs. We've identified 1 weakness with and understanding the impact should be part of your investment process. Diversify your portfolio with solid dividend payers offering reliable income streams to weather potential market turbulence. The collaboration between Sendbird Inc. and AWS could enhance Amazon's role in AI-driven solutions, particularly in the AI agent space. This complements the narrative that cloud transition and AI adoption will propel Amazon's growth. The ongoing development in AI, coupled with AWS's leadership, might positively influence future revenue and earnings forecasts, as AWS leverages its infrastructure to meet increasing AI demands. However, competitive and regulatory pressures remain, potentially affecting the ability to maintain margins. Over a three-year period, Amazon's total shareholder return reached 54.56%, underscoring strong performance. This return outpaced the US Multiline Retail industry's one-year performance, where Amazon exceeded the 28.3% industry gain. In comparison to the broader market, Amazon also surpassed the US Market's 19.4% increase over the past year. Considering the current share price of US$221.30 against the consensus price target of US$262.14, there is an 18.46% discount to the target, suggesting room for growth if forecasts align with reality. This potential upside reflects analyst expectations, hinging on whether Amazon can achieve anticipated revenue and earnings milestones. The recent news and strategic developments might aid in closing the gap towards the price target, as market confidence in the company's growth initiatives strengthens.
