iRobot's Roomba Combo 10 Max robot vacuum and mop is 47 percent off right now
The high-end iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max + Autowash Dock hybrid robot vacuum/mop is on sale for $741 right now via Woot. Just enter the discount code "ENGADGET47" at checkout. This is a discount of 47 percent, which is more than $650 off the regular price of $1,400.
The Roomba Combo 10 Max is the company's most premium model and filled to the brim with high-tech advancements. This is a hybrid unit, so it vacuums and mops. However, the model goes even further and can actually wash and dry the mopping pad. This is something that had to be done manually with previous hybrid vacuums.
It also automatically refills the mopping solution tank and can dump dirt from the dock into an enclosed bag for easy disposal. There's an affiliated app that lets folks know when it's time for a manual maintenance task. The mopping tank holds enough water for seven continuous days of use.
The vacuum portion boosts suction power when on top of a carpet, which is nice, and it automatically retracts the mopping system to avoid accidental spillage. It can vacuum and mop simultaneously on hard floors.
This is a near-perfect robovac with all kinds of bells and whistles, but there's one major drawback. As previously mentioned, the regular price of this thing is a whopping $1,400. That's nearly the equivalent of a new MacBook Pro. Thank goodness for today's deal, which makes things much more palatable.

Anker's 100W 3-Port Prime Charger Costs Less Than Prime Day, Practically a Clearance Steal
A minor pet peeve of mine is when a room doesn't have enough outlets. More and more of our crap require a lithium battery that need to be charged regularly, but when a room only has one power receptacle for my laptop, my phone, and my watch—but it's already being taken up by the lamp—it makes me want to pull my hair out. Luckily, you can compete with this impracticality by traveling with an Anker USB-C adapter. This one has three different ports and is currently on sale over at Amazon. Normally, the 3-in-1 Anker Prime Charger goes for $70, but for a limited time, you can pick one up for 34% off. That saves you a whole $24, bringing the price down to just $46. Let's start with the obvious benefit. The Anker Prime Charger contains three separate ports—two USB-C and one USB-A. That means that you can charge three devices at once with just one outlet. Each USB-C port has a maximum power delivery of 100W which means your devices can refuel fast. To put that in practical terms, a 14-inch MacBook Pro with the M3 Pro chipset can get boosted back up to 50% from dead in just 30 minutes. See at Amazon The Anker Prime Charger is designed to be significantly thinner than other power adapters on the market and the prongs can be folded back into the unit. It's 52% smaller than the 96W single-port Apple MacBook charger. Not only does that make traveling with the adapter easier, but it doesn't commit the cardinal sin of plugs. That is, of course, when an adapter is so large it blocks other outlets on the power strip. Absolutely despicable. Thankfully, that isn't even remotely an issue with this one from Anker. Optimized for stability, the Anker Prime Charger has been engineered to stay plugged. A common problem with plugs like this is them sagging in their socket, making for a loose connection. This charger has been designed with a center a gravity closer toward the outlet it's plugged into. That combined with its thicker prongs, ensures that the Anker Prime Charger stays firmly in place. You devices will stay protected in real time thanks to ActiveShield 2.0. This protocol monitors the temperature of the Anker Prime Charger over three million times per day to ensure your devices don't overheat. For a limited time, you can snag this 100W Anker Prime Charger for the reduced price of just $46—down from $70. See at Amazon

The Switch OLED went up in price, but you can still save $110
Nintendo recently made the unexpected decision to increase the prices of its last-gen Switch hardware due to 'market conditions,' adding $30 to the cost of the $199.99 Switch Lite, $40 to the standard $299.99 Switch, and $50 to the $349.99 Switch OLED. The price difference between the Switch OLED and the standalone Switch 2 now stands at a mere $50. But we found a deal that's worth checking out for those who don't want to spend anywhere near $400 for a Switch OLED. Woot is still offering the Switch OLED that comes with white Joy-Con controllers and a free download code for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, which is one of the console's best games. You'll pay just $289.99 at Woot, which was already a good deal at the OLED's original $349.99 price, let alone compared to its new, inflated price. This deal is available for the next four days, or until supply runs dry. The Nintendo Switch OLED Model: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Bundle includes a digital copy of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. While the Switch 2 is currently getting all of the attention, the Switch OLED remains a great choice due to its vast game library full of modern classics. Some of its games may run better on the Switch 2, but you'll still get the same experience overall on the last-gen console. In fact, the Switch OLED's screen is superior in some ways to what's offered in the newer hardware. Looking past the facts that it's a smaller 720p screen and locked to 60Hz refresh rate, the OLED panel knocks the socks off the Switch 2's LCD when it comes to color accuracy, contrast, and brightness control. Since there's an abundance of vibrant games available for the console, including Super Mario Odyssey and The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, to name a couple, the Switch OLED's screen will likely impress whoever's playing on it. Something to note: The discounted Switch OLED model is the 'International version,' and the biggest difference between this and something you can get at Walmart or Target is that it has a 90-day warranty through Woot. If you can look past that, it includes a power adapter for US outlets, and the console itself is region-free, meaning that games from any region will play as intended.

Dell Premium 14 review: New name, same great laptop
Every now and then companies make truly boneheaded decisions, which is exactly what happened when Dell killed off the name of its most iconic PC line and replaced it with something generic. It's like if Ford decided to rebrand Mustang and call it The Prime Sportscar instead. It doesn't make sense. But now that XPS has become Premium, it's time to see if Dell's latest flagship 14-inch ultraportable — the Dell 14 Premium (you see how dumb that sounds?) — still has the DNA that made its predecessors one of the best notebook families for more than a decade. Design and display: How Dell puts the P in Premium Instead of doing a full redesign to match its updated name, for 2025 Dell kept the same chassis it used on last year's XPS 14. And I'm not mad at all because it's still one of the most beautiful and elegant notebooks on the market today. Its aluminum chassis has clean lines, a Gorilla Glass 3 surface and just the right amount of ports for a laptop this size: three USB-C slots with Thunderbolt 4, a 3.5mm audio jack and a microSD slot. That's important, because the 14 Premium's smaller sibling — the XPS 13 (which isn't being renamed yet because it isn't getting updated this year) — doesn't have a headphone jack or a built-in card reader. That said, at between 3.66 and 3.79 pounds depending on which display you pick, the 14 Premium is a touch heavier than some of its similarly-sized rivals like a 14-inch MacBook Pro (3.4 pounds). The difference is small enough that I'm not bothered, though. While Dell rebranded the XPS 14 with a new and frankly worse name, it's still every bit the world-class Windows laptop that its predecessors were. $1,500 at Dell There's also a glass wrist rest with a touchpad that blends invisibly into the deck, which might make it seem potentially hard to use. However, because the tracking area is absolutely massive (it spans the entire area below the spacebar plus the right ALT and Copilot keys), I never felt cramped or like I needed to actively search for my cursor. I also appreciate how Dell found room for speakers on either side of the keyboard. On the other hand, Dell's touch buttons above the number row may be a bit more contentious. I don't mind the ones for adjusting volume and display brightness, but replacing the physical keys for Escape and Delete with the touchscreen options just feels a bit weird. Especially if you ever need to use the classic Windows CTRL + ALT + DEL shortcut and have to press regular keys and touch controls in a single motion. The touch keys also don't turn off when you disable the keyboard's backlight, but at least they're dim enough that they're not distracting. The Dell 14 Premium can be equipped with an optional OLED display for $200, which is worth the added cost in our opinion. (Sam Rutherford for Engadget) As for its display, by default the 14 Premium comes with a 14.5-inch 2K 120Hz non-touch IPS display. However, on our review unit, I've been using Dell's optional 3.2K 120Hz touch OLED panel and I must say, it's definitely worth the $200 upcharge. That's because while the OLED screen has slightly lower max brightness (400 nits versus 500 nits for the IPS), its wider color gamut and improved contrast ratio more than make up for that shortcoming. A base Dell 14 Premium comes with an Intel Core Ultra 7 255H CPU, 16GB of RAM and 512GB of M.2 storage. However, our review unit includes extra memory (32GB), a bigger SSD (1TB) and perhaps most importantly, an optional NVIDIA RTX 4050 GPU. The Dell 14 Premium's invisible touchpad might seem difficult to locate, but it's so large that it never becomes an issue. (Sam Rutherford for Engadget) All told, that's a pretty well-rounded package, as Dell's default config has more than enough performance to handle pretty much any level of regular productivity. And by adding in support for discrete graphics, suddenly you have a machine that's significantly better equipped to take care of more demanding tasks like video editing or even gaming in your off hours. Granted, the 14 Premium's RTX 4050 card is an entry-level component that recently became a generation old, but it was strong enough to hit 60 fps in Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p on high settings (with DLSS set to balanced), which ain't too shabby considering its portability. Battery life: Good enough Unlike the Dell's smaller XPS 13 (which isn't getting an update for 2025), the 14 Premium features both a 3.5mm audio jack and a microSD card slot. (Sam Rutherford for Engadget) The Dell 14 Premium packs good but not outstanding battery life thanks to its 69.5WHr power pack. On PCMark10's Modern Office rundown test, it lasted 8 hours and 30 minutes on the dot That's significantly longer than ASUS' ROG Z Flow 13 (6:54) and last year's Razer Blade 14 (6:46) , but still a far cry from true power-sipping systems like the ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED (12:43) or even Dell's own XPS 13 (13:15) . Wrap-up Even with a new and rather uninspired name, it probably shouldn't come as a surprise that the Dell 14 Premium remains one of the best Windows laptops on the market. It has the same sleek design from back when it was still called the XPS 14 but with some refreshed specs and components for 2025. Its chassis strikes a brilliant balance between modern minimalism and usability, while upgrades like its OLED display and discrete graphics give you the ability to build out a versatile but still very portable device. The Dell 14 Premium is made from aluminum and Gorilla Glass 3 and is available in two colors: platinum and graphite. (Sam Rutherford for Engadget) Now I admit that our fully loaded review unit is a bit pricey with a retail price of $2,450, though I'd be remiss to mention that Dell is currently running a sale that knocks $200 off that cost. Regardless, with the base model starting at $1,650 (before discounts) or $1,850 when paired with Dell's optional OLED panel (which everyone should at least consider), the 14 Premium still feels like a great deal. And when you consider that the XPS 13 isn't getting any updates this year on top of having fewer ports, the choice becomes even clearer. If I were going to spend my own money on a traditional Windows ultraportable laptop, this is the laptop I'd get.
