There are a lot of soundbar deals that are still available as we approach the end of Prime Day, but this is the one that you should target — the Samsung HW-Q990D with a huge 41% discount from Amazon, slashing its price from $1,998 all the way down to just $1,178. It’s still expensive, but if you want to make an investment to dramatically improve your home theater setup’s audio, you shouldn’t miss this chance at $820 in savings. You have to hurry though, as there are only a few hours left before the shopping event closes.

Why you should buy the Samsung HW-Q990D soundbar

The Samsung HW-Q990D holds the top spot in our list of the best soundbars with its “utterly fantastic” sound. It’s an 11.1.4-channel soundbar, and our guide on how to buy a soundbar explains the numbers — it’s got 11 channels, or front-facing speakers; one subwoofer for solid bass; and four up-firing channels that enable Dolby Atmos surround sound. Combining with Samsung’s SpaceFit Sound Pro technology, which optimizes the soundbar’s output depending on your environment, and Active Voice Analyzer, which makes dialogue clearer, you’ll feel like you’re in the middle of the action while you’re watching your favorite shows and movies.

For those with smart home systems, the Samsung HW-Q990D is ready for integration with Amazon’s Alexa built in, and it works with Google Chromecast and Apple AirPlay 2 to stream music from your mobile devices. If you’ll use the soundbar with a Samsung TV, all of the speakers will work in perfect harmony with the brand’s Q-Symphony technology.

The Samsung HW-Q990D is our top pick among all of the soundbars in the market, and it’s still available from Amazon at 41% off for Prime Day. From its original price of $1,998, it’s down to only $1,178 for massive savings of $820. With the shopping event at its final hours, this discount is also about to disappear, so you should act fast if you’re interested. To make sure that you buy the Samsung HW-Q990D soundbar at almost half-price, you need to complete your transaction for it immediately.

Nothing’s next budget earbuds are coming for boring AirPods clones
Nothing Ear (3a) may bring back some personality to budget earbuds
Nothing Ear (a) deal

Budget wireless earbuds are the most popular kind of wearable tech in the market. But just like smartphones, a lot of these hearables basically look quite similar to one another. Nothing has actively worked on avoiding that trap, and its next affordable earbuds are expected to keep the track going.

The company has just confirmed that Nothing Ear (3a) will launch on July 7 at 11:00 BST, sharing the stage with the upcoming Nothing Phone (4b). The teaser does not reveal the full spec sheet yet, but it does show the earbuds in four colors: White, Black, Yellow, and Pink. Nothing’s audio lineup has always leaned on transparent styling and playful color choices to stand out in a sea of AirPods clones.

Sony’s WH-1000XM6 headphones just became more tempting for gamers who hate gaming headsets
The new update adds Bluetooth LE Audio's Gaming Audio Profile, giving Sony's premium noise-canceling cans a lower-latency trick for compatible gaming devices.
Sony WH-1000XM6.

Sony's WH-1000XM6 gaming mode is rolling out through firmware version 3.1.5, adding support for Bluetooth LE Audio's Gaming Audio Profile, or GMAP. The same update also includes general performance improvements, so WH-1000XM6 owners have a real reason to open the Sony Sound Connect app.

It's a handy upgrade for headphones built more for commutes or office silence than late-night matches. Bluetooth lag can make games feel faintly wrong, especially when a footstep or button press lands a fraction too late.

Acer’s 1,000Hz gaming monitor is real, expensive, and stuck waiting on a launch date
The Amazon listing confirms the $699.99 price, while the display remains temporarily out of stock.
Electronics, Screen, Computer Hardware

Acer’s 1,000Hz gaming monitor has moved from announcement to Amazon listing. The XV273U F5 is priced at $699.99, giving competitive players a real number to weigh before one of the fastest displays headed to North America actually ships.

Availability is still the problem. Amazon lists the monitor as temporarily out of stock, and Acer has previously pointed to a Q4 North America launch window instead of a firm release date.
