No matter how spectacular the display of your 4K TV, a watching experience isn’t complete without excellent audio. If you want to retire from tinny, muffled TV speakers, we suggest going for a soundbar. They come in a small footprint, are easy to set up, and sound much better than TVs alone.

Amazon has the Samsung HW-R550 and LG SL5Y 2.1 channel soundbars discounted at the moment, cutting up to 34% off their standard price tags. Sale prices are $198 and $185, respectively. These soundbar deals are further sweetened with the inclusion of a wireless subwoofer.

It may not feel like it, but Microsoft Word is probably one of the most popular word processors out there, along with Google Docs, and pretty much everybody has likely used it at some point, regardless if you prefer Microsoft Office to Google Docs. Of course, if you want to get your hands on it these days, you're going to have to buy it as part of Microsoft Office, as opposed to getting it as a standalone product like you used to. While you do have to pay for the subscription, you can get Microsoft Word for a month using the free trial before it reverts to a paid subscription. Also, be sure to check out some of these useful Microsoft Words tricks and even how to run Microsoft Office on the Quest 3.
Is there a Microsoft Word free trial?

Microsoft Word is actually part of the company's wider Office app suite. Now known simply as Microsoft 365 (formerly Microsoft Office), Microsoft's enterprise software is available in a number of different packages that are now subscription-based; the company has retired the older bundles that were available for a one-time payment. That means if you want a Microsoft Word free trial, you'll need to sign up for the Microsoft 365 trial.

We find the QN85C to be sitting at just about the perfect price for a TV right now, while still maintaining the qualities and freshness of a much more quality TV.
