While we can argue the Samsung Galaxy Ring is the best wearable ring, it is also quite pricey at a cent under $400. I don't feel comfortable dropping four Benjamins on a wearable, but this free $100 gift card makes the offer more enticing. I use Amazon all the time, anyway (even for groceries), so to me it is definitely a nice incentive.
Something I really like about the Samsung Galaxy Ring is that it is made to go unnoticed, really. It doesn't look like a high-tech product, featuring a sleek design with a minimalist touch.
It's far more than a simple band, though. This is made of titanium, making it both light and resistant. It's only 7mm wide, and 2.6mm thick.

Of course, there is much more to the Samsung Galaxy Ring than its awesome design. It has features to throw around! This accessory can measure your heart rate, blood oxygen levels, skin temperature, sleep, and even track your activity. Get this: it can even help women predict their menstrual cycles.
As if all the health features weren't enough, the Samsung Galaxy Ring even gets some smart home functionality. It integrates with Samsung SmartThings, so you can use it to control your smart home devices. For example, you can program it to turn the lights off when it detects you are asleep. Pretty nice, right?!
You can use it with any Android device, but some features do require a Samsung device. This is why we mostly recommend it to those well invested in the Samsung ecosystem. If you're part of the Sammy crew, though, you'll be glad to know it requires no subscription, while many of the competitors do.

The battery life is pretty nice at about four days per charge, and you can charge it on the go using the case.
Make sure to act quickly if you've been considering getting a Samsung Galaxy Ring. Again, this wearable rarely goes on sale, and we're not sure how long this offer will last. It has been a week since we first reported it already!
Oh, and make sure to get the right size for your finger. Samsung has a guide to help you figure out what size will work best for you and your Samsung Galaxy Ring.

Magic Cue on the Pixel 10 sounds like Pixel Screenshots on steroids

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Google has reportedly been working on a new AI-powered assistance tool for Pixel devices since 2023. The system would monitor your screen and actions in apps, and offer 'personal predictive suggestions.' First known as Pixie, and then Pixel Sense, a new leak suggests Google has renamed the tool to Magic Cue. Who doesn't love a good mystery? In the smartphone world, upcoming high-profile devices sometimes leak so much that it feels like there's nothing left to know about them. While that can be really satisfying, it's also a lot of fun to watch a more nebulous rumor evolve over time, raising question after question as the story behind it slowly unfolds. We're still not quite to the bottom of this one yet, but this week a new leak adds a curious chapter to the story of Pixie and Pixel Sense. In case you haven't been following this one, we first heard about Pixie back in late 2023, described as a new on-device AI-powered assistant for Pixel hardware. It failed to materialize for the Pixel 9 series, but then just this March we reported on Google's interest in retooling the service as Pixel Sense and introducing it with Pixel 10 phones. Further analysis suggested this would be less like the interactive voice assistants we have with the Google Assistant and now Gemini, and more like an automation tool — even spinning off into Pixel Screenshots. Apparently Google wasn't done with reinventing this project yet, because over on Telegram, Mystic Leaks shares a short video recording with the claim that Pixel Sense has found a new name in the form of Magic Cue (via 9to5Google). As you can see in these screengrabs from the video, Magic Cue does indeed seem to be taking the form that we were beginning to expect from Pixel Sense, using AI to gather information about what you're doing in apps, and predictively trying to help get stuff done. If the idea of AI reading your chats just sounds like a privacy trade-off you could do without, it's reassuring to see that users will have to positively opt in to Magic Cue, as this setup screen does not depict the service as being on by default. The source here claims that Magic Cue is on track for introduction alongside the Pixel 10, and considering the false start with the Pixel 9, we really hope that's finally true. Got a tip? Talk to us!

Amazon joins the big nuclear party, buying 1.92 GW for AWS

Amazon tapped into an emerging trend this week, one that's seeing big tech firms buy power from existing nuclear power plants. The tech company will power a chunk of its AWS cloud and AI servers using 1.92 gigawatts of electricity from Talen Energy's Susquehanna nuclear power plant in Pennsylvania. Amazon is the latest hyperscaler to go direct to big nuclear operators, following on the heels of Microsoft and Meta. Amazon's deal was announced Wednesday, but it's not entirely new, instead modifying an existing arrangement with Talen. The old version had Amazon building a data center next to the Susquehanna power plant, siphoning electricity directly from the facility without first sending it to the grid. That deal was killed by regulators over concerns that customers would unfairly shoulder the burden of running the grid. Today, Susquehanna provides power to the grid, meaning every kilowatt-hour includes transmission fees that support the grid's maintenance and development. Amazon's behind-the-meter arrangement would have sidestepped those fees. This week's revisions shift Amazon's power purchase agreement in front of the meter, meaning the AWS data center will be billed like other similar customers who are grid-connected. The transmission lines will be reconfigured in spring of 2026, Talen said, and the deal covers energy purchased through 2042. But wait, there's more: The two companies also said they will look to build small modular reactors 'within Talen's Pennsylvania footprint' and expand generation at existing nuclear power plants. Expanding existing power plants is typically an easier way to add new nuclear. They might include switching to more highly enriched fuel to produces more heat, tweaking the settings to squeeze out more power, or renovating the turbines for a bigger bump.

Boston, MA | REGISTER NOW Microsoft kicked off the trend last year when it announced that it would work with Constellation Energy to restart a reactor at Three Mile Island, a $1.6 billion project that will generate 835 megawatts. Meta hopped aboard earlier this month, also with Constellation, to buy the 'clean energy attributes' of a 1.1 gigawatt nuclear power plant in Illinois. Amazon and Talen's pledge to build new small modular reactors is a longer shot, though there, too, Amazon is in good company with its peers. Several startups pursuing the concept with the hopes of cutting construction costs by mass producing parts. Amazon has invested in an SMR startup, X-energy, which is planning to add 300 megawatts of nuclear generating capacity in the Pacific Northwest and Virginia. New generation at existing reactors and new SMRs are intended 'to add net-new energy to the PJM grid,' Talen said, referring to the region's grid operator. That last bit is likely a bid to head off any criticism from regulators about leaving ratepayers holding the bag.

Beats' new Powerbeats Pro 2 earbuds just went on sale for the second time at $50 off

One of the best pairs of workout earbuds received a long-awaited update earlier this year. Back in February, Beats finally launched a follow-up to its beloved fitness earbuds after making runners wait over five years. If you've been waiting a little longer to upgrade to the Powerbeats Pro 2 without paying full price, several retailers have launched discounts for only the second time. Take $50 off at Amazon and Best Buy with these all-time low tech deals. Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 One of the most eagerly awaited sequels in the world of tech just went on sale. The Powerbeats Pro 2 upgrade the most beloved workout earbuds on the market and come in four new colors. Mike Andronico's glowing review is convincing me to ditch the Bose Ultra Open buds I use when working out in favor of these newer buds, which are $50 off for only the second time. In the world of workout earbuds, there's one brand that has consistently released the most popular options: Beats. Its headphones have been topping the charts at CNN Underscored for ages, and its new Powerbeats Pro 2 should be following suit. Andronico has been covering consumer electronics for over a decade. So when he was impressed by the company's latest, I knew these earbuds were the real deal. Today's offer makes that endorsement even better. It's only the second time these Beats headphones have gone on sale since launching in February. The first and only other discount was back during the Memorial Day festivities, a deal that was so popular it quickly sold out. So, if today's rehash of that all-time low from the holiday weekend catches your eye, it'll be worth adding to your cart sooner rather than later. Shipping times are already beginning to slip, but there's a chance you'll still be able to have these delivered as a last-minute Father's Day gift.
