There’s two things going on right now. One, it’s the middle of summer and you know that every time you go running you’ll build up a sweat that can kill earbuds, which means you’re probably after some good running headphones. Two, it’s Prime Day, which means Prime Day deals are here. Combine the two together, and you’ll find this deal on the Beats Powerbeats Pro 2, which are currently $70 off. That drops them from $250 to $180, making them much more appealing than they normally are. Tap the button below to see them for yourself, or keep reading to see why we think they’re the perfect pickup for the season, our past experiences with them, and more about this great offer.

Why you should buy the Beats Powerbeats Pro 2

When we made our Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 review, we immediately called them “your next workout earbuds.” And “next” does a lot of lifting here, because the Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 do two standard things and one unexpected thing to ensure a great workout experience.

For the expected, the Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 are IPX4, meaning they can handle sweat and getting caught in the odd sprinkler or drizzle. They also have a very secure fit with around-the-ear earhooks that are “very durable, but flexible” thanks to their nickel titanium alloy wiring. They’re fleshy and hold their shape well and, most importantly, won’t fly out into the street when you look both ways. Oh, and while we’re talking about expected features, they have great sound, a touch of noise canceling, and get up to 45 hours of battery life when you combine the buds and the case.

Then there is the unexpected. The Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 listen to your beats too. Your heartbeats, that is, and monitor your heartrate from your ears. Sure, you might be wearing your fitness tracker as well, but if you want a quick way to see if you’re getting up to your optimum heartrate, this is a fantastic way to go about it — just check the app and you’re good to go.

To get the Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 for just $180, which is $70 down from their typical $250, simply tap the button below. Don’t forget that this amazing Beats headphones deal is tied to Prime Day, however, so be sure to order your buds soon.

I’m already surrounded by AI. I don’t need ChatGPT living beside my bed
No, OpenAI. I don’t want your ChatGPT speaker.

AI is all around us now. From your phone to home appliances, it practically sits everywhere--and it might just get a lot more intimate. A recent report claims OpenAI and Jony Ive are working on a small, screenless AI speaker shaped somewhat like a doughnut. It could be battery-powered, portable enough to carry around the house, and packed with microphones, cameras, sensors, speakers, lights, and even moving parts.

It sounds like someone finally decided the Amazon Echo needed eyes and a personality. And not to be too negative, the idea of a "ChatGPT"-powered hardware really doesn't sound so great.

For months, reports have suggested that OpenAI’s first hardware product would be a screen-free smart speaker designed to act more like an AI companion. We already knew it could understand its surroundings, be carried around the home, and proactively help users. A new Bloomberg report now gives us a clearer picture of what the device may actually look like.

As per the report, OpenAI’s first gadget will be shaped like a doughnut and measure about the same size as a hockey puck. You will be able to carry it between rooms or leave it nearby on whatever surface is convenient. The device is expected to be on the expensive side, as the company has pondered pricing it around $300 to $400. A release is currently planned for 2027.
