Buy an HTC 10 before the end of July and get $100 off, plus your choice of free accessories

The world is going crazy for deals, so why wouldn’t HTC want to get in on the fun with a price reduction for its HTC 10 smartphone. Any time before now, you’d have laid down $700 for an unlocked HTC 10, but from July 12 until July 31 you’ll only spend $600, a sizeable $100 saving over the usual price.

That’s a great deal on perhaps one of the more overlooked flagship smartphones of 2016. However, HTC’s not finished yet. It’s also adding in free uh-oh protection, which is HTC’s stupidly named warranty, that’s way more beneficial than the name may suggest. If you break the screen, of send the HTC 10 to a watery grave, then the company will replace it for free.

Amazingly, HTC’s still not done. Once you’ve bought the HTC 10 and you’re armed with proof of purchase, then HTC will give you $100 credit towards accessories you buy from a supporting retailer or outlet. Just to recap. That’s $100 off the HTC 10, $100 of credit towards some accessories, and a free replacement if you do something silly with it between now and this time next year. Not bad at all.

Should you buy it? We rated it highly in our review, noting its gorgeous design and fast fingerprint sensor, plus the stunning 5.2-inch 2560 x 1440 pixel screen. A Snapdragon 820 with 4GB of RAM provides the power, and Android 6.0 is installed with only minimal interference from HTC. Oh, and did we mention how good it looks? Get this phone in your hand, and you won’t want to put it down.

To get the offer from HTC you’ll need to buy the phone unlocked through HTC.com, where you can choose the exclusive carbon grey color scheme instead of the usual silver. The unlocked model will work with AT&T and T-Mobile, or there’s a version for Verizon and Sprint available too. The promotion will end on July 31.

A smartwatch that’s determined to improve your golf game is $100 off today
A trio of Garmin Approach S62 smart watches.

Most smartwatches are made to help you understand your body's performance in a wide variety of sports and activities. Many of the best smartwatches brag about the number of sports modes, giving numbers like "150" or "400+" to show the wide range of activities you can do with the watch. But, truth be told, we all know that a jack of all trades can easily be mistaken for a master of none.

That's why we think you'll be interested in this deal on the Garmin Approach S62. It's a GPS golf watch that acts as a virtual caddie and constant companion during your golf game while also tracking steps and giving you a good look at your overall fitness. It's usually $500, but you can get one on Amazon for just $400 today, saving you $100. This deal is likely somewhat related to the watch being discontinued for newer models by Garmin, so be sure to buy it now if you want it — this deal could very well sell out.

If you’ve got a Samsung Galaxy S24 in your hand, then it’s time to start checking the software update page again, as it appears the much-delayed One UI 7 update has restarted in South Korea. It means there’s a strong chance it will also be sent out to global Galaxy S24-series phones in the near future. 

Samsung phone owners will be aware of how much hassle the One UI 7 update has been for the brand’s top 2024 smartphones. Not only has it been a long-time coming — One UI 7 arrived with the Galaxy S25 in January — but when it did eventually arrive last week, a serious flaw related to locking and unlocking the phone was discovered and the update was abruptly stopped.
