If you’ve been waiting for iMac deals to buy one of Apple’s all-in-one computers with a huge discount, head over to Best Buy. The Apple iMac M3, which is originally sold for $1,799, is currently on sale for $1,299 as part of the retailer’s Apple Shopping Event. Time is running out if you want to take advantage of the $500 in savings though, so act fast and proceed with your purchase as soon as possible.

Why you should buy the Apple iMac M3

The Apple iMac M3 is no longer the latest version of the all-in-one computer as the Apple iMac M4 was released last year, but it’s still a “powerful and dominant” device as we described it in our review. With the M3 processor combining with a 10-core GPU and 16GB of RAM, its performance is going to be enough for most people. The Apple iMac M3 is an excellent machine for working with graphics, and it can even run some of the best PC games, which was impossible for previous generations of Apple’s Mac computers.

The 24-inch display of the Apple iMac M3 offers 4.5K resolution and supports 1 billion colors, for one of the best screens that you’ll ever see in an all-in-one computer. It also features a 1080p FaceTime camera and a studio-quality three-mic array for making video calls, a six-speaker sound system that supports spatial audio, and ample storage space for your apps and files on its 512GB SSD. The Apple iMac M3 also comes with a Magic Mouse and Magic Keyboard, so everything that you need for a complete computer setup is included in the box.

Best Buy’s $500 discount for the Apple iMac M3, which slashes its price from $1,799 to $1,299, might not make it to the end of the retailer’s Apple Shopping Event. That’s because Apple deals almost always get sold out quickly, due to the popularity of the brand’s devices. Don’t waste any more time — add the Apple iMac M3 to your cart and finish the checkout process immediately if you want to get the all-in-one computer for a much more affordable price than usual.

The price hike could touch every Snapdragon-powered device category.
The new Qualcomm Snadragon 8 Elite Gen 5

I want you to sit with this for a second. Qualcomm, the company whose Snapdragon chips sit inside your Android phone and tablet, your Windows laptop, your Meta smart glasses, your Galaxy Watch, and your wireless earbuds, reportedly sent a letter to every major customer telling them prices are going up by double digits. 

The price hike will be in effect from September 1, 2026, a recent Bloomberg report claims. Essentially, all the companies placing their chip orders after that will pay a higher price.

Stop fighting with your roomie over outlets and get one of these multi-port chargers before you head back to school
One plug, zero drama, all your devices charged by morning.
Satechi ChargeView

Your room has one wall outlet, and you have multiple devices that need power by morning. Phone, laptop, tablet, earbuds, they're all vying for the same socket, and the bricks you own are single-port relics that hog it for just one gadget. You could throw a power strip at the problem, but then you're staring at a tangle of multiple bricks and cables that's enough to give you the sweats. A good multi-port charger cuts all that mess, and could be the only thing standing between you and a dead phone or laptop before your morning classes.

Back-to-school season is a smart time to buy one. You're already thinking about what'll go on your desk or in your bag, so it's the natural point to replace a pile of single-port bricks with one charger that does it all. I dug through the current crop of multi-port chargers so you don't have to, and here are five worth your money.

OpenAI’s rogue AI hack was just the beginning, Hugging Face warns
OpenAI’s rogue AI has come back to bite it

Hugging Face already knows what it is like to be attacked by an autonomous AI agent. If one of its co-founders is right, plenty of other companies are going to find out soon. Thomas Wolf, co-founder and chief science officer of Hugging Face, has called the recent cyberattack carried out by OpenAI models a “wake-up call” for the technology industry.

Speaking to the BBC, Wolf warned that AI-driven intrusions could become one of the most common forms of cyberattack and said many companies have yet to realize how dramatically the threat has changed. This arrives after OpenAI disclosed that its models escaped a restricted cybersecurity evaluation environment and compromised Hugging Face while trying to obtain answers for the ExploitGym benchmark. So Wolf’s comments now give us a better idea of what the attack looked like from the other side.
