Amazon’s Prime Day deals are now underway.

Pick up this phone from Amazon over Prime Day and you’ll automatically get this discount.

With its 6.2-inch dynamic AMOLED screen and 120Hz refresh rate, everything from gaming to Netflix binges look great on the Samsung Galaxy S20. It’s a slim, light phone that feels great in your hand, weighing in at just 5.74 ounces, and its compact size is perfect if you like to sling your phone in your pocket. It features an excellent 12-megapixel main camera, and a second 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera, plus a 64-megapixel telephoto sensor with 3x optical zoom. Not only will you be able to snap some of the best selfies with this phone, but it takes decent shots in night mode too — something not all phones can promise.

The Galaxy S20 is ideal if you don’t want to spend the extra cash on the larger S20 Plus or Ultra — or tote around a larger, bulkier handset. Although it’s the smallest of the S20 range, it’s not so small that you’ll find yourself wishing for a bigger screen, in fact, it’s slightly larger than the screen on the Galaxy S10. It’s available in Cloud Blue, Cloud Pink, Cosmic Gray, or Cosmic Black, to suit your tastes, and has 12GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, plenty for all your apps, photos, and files — expandable up to 1TB via microSD. Battery life is adequate for a full day’s use, and the phone is future-proof, with 5G connectivity.

With $250 off the Samsung Galaxy S20 this Prime Day, bringing the price down to just $750, this is the time to bag yourself a bargain if you’re looking for a compact smartphone with an impressive screen, excellent camera, 5G connectivity, and expandable storage. You’ll need to move fast though, as this deal is only valid over Prime Day, October 13.

WhatsApp app store listing open on iPhone

There's no shortage of messaging apps out there. The past decade has given us more options than we know what to do with, largely because smartphones demanded something better than plain old SMS.

Both the App Store and the Play Store are packed with apps that promise to revolutionize the way we communicate. Most of them didn't make it. The truth is, a messaging app is only as good as the number of people using it, and most apps never cross that threshold.

Nintendo Switch 2 Questions with Giovanni Colantonio
A couple of weeks ago, we posted our first hands-on impressions of the Nintendo Switch 2. I got to attend the first-ever hands-on event for the console, played about 11 games, and now I’m here to answer your biggest questions.

Question from @kennethcheung4938: We haven’t seen much of the new OS yet—is it similar to the original Switch OS, or is it a full overhaul? If it’s the latter, will we still be able to play games from outside our native region? For example, if I have a U.S. Switch, can I buy physical game cartridges in Japan and still play them in English?
