Amazon Deals of the Day: Get a Camera for Your Nintendo Switch 2 for the Lowest Price of the Year
Amazon sells a vast array of products, with new ones arriving daily across multiple categories, including home essentials, tech gadgets and furniture. Lucky for us, the retail giant loves cutting prices as much as it loves adding new products. But deciding which offers are worth grabbing (and which aren't) is a full-time job, so we did all the heavy lifting, hand-picking the top markdowns from the bunch. Today, we spotted the Logitech Brio 501 webcam down to it's lowest price of the year. We also found Anker's MagGo portable magnetic charger at a nice 30% discount. As well as the Shark Navigator vacuum for 30% off, too. The Nintendo Switch 2 is one of the most popular gaming systems out there. And if you already got your hands on one, it's time to pick up some accessories like a camera. The Logitech Brio 501 webcam is a great option. It takes HD video in 1080p, making sure you can be seen clearly. It even uses features like auto light correction and auto-framing to automatically adjust the light in your environment to make sure you look the best and you're centered in frame. The camera can tilt, too, if you want to be at an angle. And for when you're not using the camera, simply slide on the privacy cover for peace of mind. This camera is normally listed at $130. But this limited-time deal brings the price down to $100, the lowest we've seen all year. With many of us going to school or work in-person almost everyday, keeping our a full battery on our essential devices all day isn't always easy. Sure, we can bring our cords and charging blocks, but there's not always somewhere to plug it in. If you're wanting to charge your phone on the go, the Anker MagGo charger is made for exactly that. It's a wireless, portable, magnetic charger. And it's compatible with the iPhone 12 and newer. Simply snap it onto your phone to let your phone charge. It's pretty powerful at 5,000mAh. Plus, it has temperature control technology to prevent overheating. It comes in a few different colors so you can pick whichever matches your phone or case best. This charger is pretty affordable at $40. But it just got even cheaper. A generous 30% discount has dropped the price down to $28. It's not the record-low price, but it's only $4 away from it. And, every color is discounted. With so many kinds of vacuums out there, it can be hard picking which one is best for you. A great option is the Shark Navigator Lift-Away vacuum. It has Advanced Swivel Steering so you can get around your furniture and the corners and even includes extended reach so you can get all the way up to your ceilings. The vacuum is completely sealed so all the dust, dirt and germs stay inside the vacuum. If you have furry friends, it does a great job of cleaning up pet fur, especially if you use the included pet power brush. It also comes with a dusting brush and a crevice tool. This wired vacuum is normally $200. But this limited-time deal knocks 30% off the price, coming down to $140. That brings it back to the lowest price of the year, so don't miss out. Although this vacuum comes in three colors, note that only the white/silver option is down to this price. With so many deals on Amazon, deciding which ones are worth your money can be difficult. But CNET combs through what the world's largest online retailer has to offer each day and gathers the best deals for you to check out.

Elgato's new 4k60 Facecam might just become our new favourite, featuring a new a lens, sensor, and analogue filters
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. When it comes to streaming and conferencing gear, Elgato is a company I've come to really appreciate. They make some of my favourite streaming gear like great keylights, and are also behind some of the best webcams around. The brand's Facecam line has impressed us since its inception back in 2021 with Elgato's first ever webcam and continues today with the Facecam MK.2 sitting atop our list of beloved cameras. Now, we are treated to the latest in that lineup as Elgato releases the Facecam 4k, and I'm only going off specs here, but it sounds like a really great webcam. Right out the gate the Elgato Facecam 4k presents some impressive details to drool over. We see the same Elgato Prime lens which impressed us on the MK.2 paired with an improved 1/1.8" Sony Starvis 2 CMOS sensor. These guarantee that the image the camera is able to capture with its own optics is going to be very solid, and makes for a great foundation for the rest of the performance for this webcam. These aren't the only interesting pieces of hardware featured, as Elgato has gone surprisingly analogue here. The Facecam 4k sports manual shutter-speed and ISO settings so you can dial in the light intake and speed to help make the best of your image. If you've not got the best lighting this should be a huge help in getting the best balance without things getting too grainy. There's also physical lens filters. You know, those bits of coloured plastic you put infront of a lens to get different effects? Some of the younger crew may not be familiar with these, as usually filters are digital here in 2025, but they definitely exist. And now they can exist on your camera, which I think more creative streamers and content creators will have a lot of fun playing with. It will fit any 49-mm filter you can find, and Elgato are currently throwing some in for those who order from the webstore. The 4k in this Facecams name isn't just for show. These can record HDR video up to 4k at 30 fps. You can also grab uncompressed video up to 4k 30 as well, as long as you've got the bandwidth in your USB. You can also drop the resolution down to 1080 if you're after higher framerates and generally dial this in to whatever suits your setup the best. Through Elgato's Camera Hub software you can further dial a bunch of this stuff in and play with other effects. This includes full pan and tilt controls, digital presets, and if you're packing an Nvidia RTX card you can potentially access extra features like background blur. If Elgato's Facecam 4k turns out to be as it says on the tin, I think we could have a contender for a new top webcam on our hands. It's launching at $200 USD, which also doesn't feel unreasonable for what actually looks like a really decent upgrade from the 1080p60 Facecam which still retails for $140. $60 for better sensors, upgraded lens, 4k capabilities, and all those sweet weird lens features sounds very worthwhile and I think this will become a staple for many streamers in the near future.
