The Apple Watch Series 10 is back on sale for $100 off

Engadget2 days ago

Summer is almost here for those of us in the northern hemisphere, which means that you might be getting more active outdoors. One way to keep track of all your workouts en plein air is with the Apple Watch Series 10. The smartwatch is back on sale for $299, which is $100 off the regular price. It also matches a record low.
There are a few variants on sale for this price at Amazon, but they all have a 42mm case and are GPS models with no LTE connectivity. If you'd rather have the larger 46mm case, several Apple Watch Series 10 configurations with that are also $100 off at $329.
Not only is the Apple Watch Series 10 a darn good fitness (and wellness) tracker, it's our pick for the best smartwatch overall. Android wielders need not apply, unfortunately, since you need a paired iPhone to set up and use any Apple Watch. If you're not looking for one for yourself, the Apple Watch Series 10 would also make for a great Father's Day gift.
We gave this smartwatch a score of 90 in our review. It's a fairly iterative update, so if you already have an Apple Watch Series 8 or 9 already, it might not be worth upgrading. At least in the US, the blood oxygen feature that was available in previous versions isn't present in the Apple Watch Series 10 following a patent dispute. Some of the Apple Watch Series 10's major features are found in other models too — the sleep apnea detection function is also available on the Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2.
However, if you're looking for your first Apple Watch or upgrading from a Series 7 or earlier, the Series 10 is probably the best way to go. It has a larger screen than its predecessors, so it'll be easier to see notifications and such. The thinner frame looks rather fetching too.

Bank of America Weighs in on Amazon Stock Amid Rising Robotics Potential

Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) has made several high-profile acquisitions in recent years, including the $13.7 billion purchase of Whole Foods in 2017 and the $8.45 billion acquisition of MGM Studios in 2022. Confident Investing Starts Here: But long before these deals, Amazon made a strategic bet that would quietly redefine its core operations. In 2012, it acquired Kiva Systems for $775 million – a move that laid the foundation for the company's massive push into automation. That early investment has since evolved into a robotics powerhouse, with Amazon now deploying more than 20 types of robots and operating a fleet of over 750,000 units. Although robots are already deeply integrated into Amazon's fulfillment centers, Bank of America's Justin Post, an analyst ranked in the top 1% of Wall Street stock experts, thinks the company is still in the early stages of broader robotics adoption, as evidenced by the late-2024 launch of its automated fulfillment center and the May announcement of eight new robots for delivery stations set to be deployed over the next two years. 'Robots will be instrumental in improving Amazon's long-term cost structure,' says Post, 'likely by: 1) reducing labor dependencies and impact of wage inflation; 2) reducing employee injury costs; 3) increasing order accuracy, and 4) driving higher warehouse utilization.' Post thinks Robotics could strengthen Amazon's 'competitive moats,' especially as increased transparency in an AI-driven retail landscape favors companies with lower costs and faster delivery. According to Amazon, recent AI advancements have brought a 'step change' in how automation can help its employees, opening the door for further logistical innovation. The development of spatially aware robots capable of sorting, picking, and packing represents a 'significant breakthrough' in fulfillment and delivery – one that Amazon is likely to embrace well ahead of rivals, thanks in part to its leadership in AI through AWS. The cost-saving potential of robots is not to be sniffed at. The new 12th-generation fulfillment centers – equipped with 10 times more robots – are expected to reduce peak period service costs by 25%. The multi-year rollout of these advanced centers and retrofitting of existing facilities is underway, after kicking off with the initial one last year. Amazon is also deploying more robots in delivery stations and piloting autonomous drone deliveries in Texas and Arizona. Based on estimated efficiency gains – 20% in new fulfillment centers, 15% in updated delivery stations, and 40% for drone deliveries on select packages – by 2032, Post reckons robotics could generate up to $ 16 billion in annual cost savings. Additionally, there's still a way to go in improving margins. The 2024 retail operating profit margin of 5.4% amounts to a big improvement vs. 2022, and Post thinks that over the long-term, there is potential for margins to reach 11%, based on assumptions of a 55% margin on advertising, 20% on third-party (3P) services, 5% on subscriptions, breakeven for 1P (first-party) retail, and $10 billion in annual investment spending. 'We think robots and drones will increase Amazon's shipping speed advantages, and could add another 2pts to Amazon's long-term retail margins, helping move 1P toward better profitability in a very price-transparent AI world,' Post further said. Conveying his confidence, Post assigns a Buy rating to AMZN shares and raises his price target from $230 to $248, suggesting the stock could gain ~21% in the months ahead. (To watch Post's track record, click here) That is just one of many bullish AMZN takes on Wall Street; the stock's Strong Buy consensus rating is based on a lopsided mix of 47 Buys and 1 Hold. Going by the $240.62 average price target, a year from now, the shares will be changing hands for a 17% premium.

iOS 26: All the new features coming to your iPhone

Apple is gearing up to reveal iOS 26 (or iOS 19, if the name-change rumors are inaccurate) at WWDC 2025. While a potential name change is interesting, what'll make or break the company's next significant OS update are the new features. Apple needs to offer something compelling with iOS 26, as the last few updates have been relatively minor (Apple Intelligence being the most significant new feature, which has been plagued with problems). Thankfully, the rumor mill has been churning out potential new iOS 26 features regularly, and it sounds exciting. Here are the most significant new features we expect to see when Apple launches iOS 26 at WWDC 25. The centerpiece of the next version of iOS is reportedly a massive visual overhaul. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple has three key focuses for the new interface: simpler to use, faster to navigate and easier to learn. "The big thing with this redesign is consistent controls, icons, buttons, user interface dynamics and mechanisms across both iOS and macOS," said Gurman in a report. A big look at what iOS 26 could look like came from a Jon Prosser video. This isn't a final look at the OS, as it's leaked mockups, but it could give us a strong indication of what to expect from the new design. This is expected to be the biggest shakeup to the iOS look and feel since iOS 7, which launched 12 years ago. That's a long time for a popular OS to remain relatively stagnant, so I'm very excited to see what Apple does. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Apple has to knock it out of the park with Apple Intelligence. Whether the company calls it Apple Intelligence 2.0 or something else entirely, the original launch wasn't good. Apple typically doesn't launch a half-baked product, but that's precisely what happened with the company's race to catch up in the AI space. Some new changes expected to arrive on iOS 26 include: Siri's AI upgrades, new third-party AI integrations, iPhone battery improvements and expanding AI into more apps. Siri in particular is way behind Google Gemini Live and ChatGPT. Apple isn't rumored to have a true competitor that can handle live conversations and multi-modal support for audio and video until next year. But we could could get other promised upgrades like personal context awareness (think emails, photos, and calendar), on-screen awareness, and deeper app integration in iOS 26. It just might not happen right away. The biggest thing Apple needs to do is make Apple Intelligence good. As the main selling point of iOS 18, it underdelivered. The company has another chance to make a good impression, as users want the AI built into their phone to work well. However, if Apple drops the ball again, it might be tough to win users over. While this might seem like a minor change, knowing how long it'll take your phone to charge is a helpful feature when you're in a hurry. And this should be an iOS 26 feature. According to some reputable leakers, you'll be able to look at your iPhone's lock screen and see how long you must wait for a full charge. Knowledge is power, and this feature is most definitely a powerful one that's worth getting excited about. Like any major OS update, Apple is expected to add numerous accessibility features to iOS 26. Some of these features will only be useful for specific individuals, but others can significantly speed up workflows for everyone. Apple announced that it will add App Store labels, systemwide Reader mode, and more. Here's the complete list of features coming to the accessibility side of things: We've also heard rumblings that Apple will introduce new first-party apps and make significant updates to some existing ones. There will be a new Apple Games app, according to reports. Essentially, it will replace the often-forgotten Game Center app and add new functionality that was previously unavailable. For mobile gamers, this alone is worth getting excited about, as it signals that Apple still considers games an essential part of iOS. Other rumored updates include live translation in the Translate app, allowing it to further compete with Google Translate (which can now be made the default on iOS). Apple is also expected to enhance the Health App with Apple Health+. Features include food logging, educational videos, and AI coaching are on the table. Finally, Messages is expected to play better with RCS, further bridging the divide between Android and iOS. Here's a rundown of other small tweaks you might expect to see on iOS 19:
