The Prime Day deals are well underway and, once again, I’ve found myself cruising the best Prime Day TV deals looking for that one can’t-miss opportunity to get an incredibly high-end TV at an equally incredibly low price.

I finally found “the one.” My pick for Prime Day 2021 is the 65-inch Sony A8H 4K HDR OLED TV, available at Amazon for under $1,600. Keep in mind, this TV came out at $2,500. I’d say $900 worth of savings on a TV this stellar is a deal worth pouncing on.

I’ve been a professional TV reviewer for about 10 years now, and the Sony A8H is one of the most impressive-looking televisions I’ve ever evaluated. Part of its luscious picture quality is down to the fact that it uses an OLED panel which delivers perfect black levels and dazzling contrast as well as eye-popping color.

The rest of what makes this TV look so good is owed to Sony and its long history of making the best picture processors on the planet. Picture processing may not be a sexy topic, but it makes the difference between a TV that merely piques your interest and one that takes your breath away. Sony has the market cornered on TVs that take your breath away, and the 2020 A8H is one of the company’s best examples.

With the Sony A8H OLED TV, you’ll get a strikingly thin profile (the top of the TV is thinner than your mobile phone) as well as a minimalist stand that slings the TV very close to your media cabinet or credenza for a very modern look. If not stand-mounting, you’ll be thrilled with how svelte the A8H OLED TV will look up on your wall.

Sony’s A8H OLED runs the Android TV Smart TV platform with support for just about every streaming app you could possibly want or need, and its easy-to-use interface makes accessing the content you want to watch simple and straightforward.

Built for those who demand the best picture quality, the Sony A8H OLED is most at home in a dedicated entertainment room, but its versatility makes it a great pick for anywhere you love to watch TV and movies or play video games.

I’ve always felt a TV purchase is one you make infrequently and is therefore worth an investment to ensure long-term happiness. I can very confidently stand behind the Sony A8H as a TV that will bring many years of viewing enjoyment — and bragging rights — to anyone who owns it. A discount of 36% means you’re saving over $900 on one of the most dazzling TVs I’ve seen. This is a Lightning Deal and absolutely will not last, so don’t hesitate before you click that Buy Button.

I stand behind this TV 100%, but even with this incredible deal, the price point is just not for everyone. And that’s ok. There are a ton of other excellent quality Prime 4K TV deals for every budget. We’ve curated the best right here.

Stop joining group projects with a blurry laptop webcam and buy one of these instead
Your laptop webcam is sabotaging your first impression. These five can fix it
I'm holding my Logitech C920 1080p webcam in my hands.

The webcam built into your laptop might be good enough for a quick call with friends and family. But its shortcomings become much harder to ignore when you are presenting a semester project, interviewing for an internship, or maybe if you're planning to stream for fun.

Laptop cameras also tend to sit far too low, especially when the computer is placed directly on a desk. Meanwhile, a dedicated webcam lets you position the camera closer to eye level. This improves the framing and brings larger sensors, better microphones, and more effective low-light processing.

I desperately want a new classic Walkman, but Sony probably can’t give me one
Tech minimalism is begging for a new Walkman. Though rebuilding it may be close to impossible
Sony Walkman WM2011

Every few months, another piece of tech that seems obsolete crawls out of a drawer and becomes cool again. The age of minimalism has revived the popularity of iPods among younger buyers. Dumbphones have become an escape hatch from endless notifications. Similarly, digital cameras are dangling from bags again. Physical media keeps attracting people who want something they can actually hold instead of another frustrating subscription.

All of this makes it the perfect time for Sony to bring back the classic Walkman, which was a phenomenon during the 80s and 90s. I would love one. Give me a compact cassette player, physical buttons, and wired headphones. Keep the apps, notifications, and algorithms that shape your taste of music. No more AI assistants or personalzied feeds, just you and your Walkman. There is only one problem though. Recreating the Walkman that people love and remember, would be far harder than putting an old design back into production.

Proton reveals how smart TVs track you and the escape situation is pretty grim 
Modern smart TVs fingerprint your screen content at the chipset level.

Your smart TV may know far more about your viewing habits than you realize, even if you rarely use its smart features. In a new privacy explainer, Proton warns that many modern TVs quietly collect data about everything displayed on the screen and share it with manufacturers, advertisers, and analytics companies.

The worrying part is that escaping this tracking is becoming increasingly difficult because many privacy controls are buried deep in settings or enabled by default. Proton argues that buying a smart TV today often means accepting a level of surveillance that most people never knowingly signed up for.
