It’s May today. Well, today and the next 30 days, too. But we’re saying “Hello May” with code HELLOMAY at OnePlus to get great deals. For example, you can get the OnePlus Watch 2 — it’s a smartwatch with a special hybrid mode that you’ll need to keep reading to learn about — that you would normally have to pay $300 for. However, by just entering HELLOMAY upon checkout you’ll get it for $50 less, or $250. Tap the button to evaluate the watch yourself or keep reading to see what we liked about this watch and why this is considered one of the best smartwatch deals around today.

Why you should buy the OnePlus Watch 2

When we made our OnePlus Watch 2 review, we reviewed it as a smartwatch with an “excellent battery life and a lovely design.” The casing simply looks nice and the textured band is admittedly a step up from the competition and even the likes of what you’ll see on a standard nylon G-Shock band, as an example. And, of course, the screen — it has a 1.43-inch AMOLED screen with a crisp 466 x 466 display.

The watch works like many fitness trackers, with sleep stage measuring, Sp02 level checking (sorry Apple!), heart rate data, among others, without a subscription and without all of the pageantry of workout challenges and social engagement. You’ll control the watch with two buttons, one being a cosmetically rotating crown. The lack of being able to do something with the rotation initially bummed us out, but it’s the kind of thing that time (and a hot deal) really smooths out.

A unique feature of the OnePlus Watch 2 is its potential for an absurdly long battery life via a special ‘Power Saver’ mode which extends the watch’s 3 days of battery life to 12 days instead. Our review explains the mode perfectly: “When you enable Power Saver mode, you can access all of the watch’s health and fitness functions, the weather app, your alarms and timers, and notifications. It even looks just like normal Wear OS! However, features like the always-on display, Wear OS apps, and Google Assistant do not work.”

To get your OnePlus Watch 2 for just $250 and not the usual $300, all you need to do is tap the button below and enter the code HELLOMAY upon checkout. That code saves you $50 off of your watch, which is a pretty fantastic way to start the month. For alternative ways to track your health, be sure to check out these Fitbit deals.

Musk’s SpaceX could finally launch its carrier service after buying Boost Mobile
Elon Musk found a workaround after major mobile carriers blocked SpaceX’s network request.
SpaceX-Boost-Mobile-deal

Elon Musk wants SpaceX to become more than a rocket and satellite internet company. After Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T all turned down SpaceX's request to use their networks, the trillionaire is reportedly exploring a deal with Boost Mobile that could help the company enter the $235 billion US wireless market.

SpaceX has discussed either acquiring Boost or gaining access to its existing cellular network through parent company EchoStar. Neither option has been finalized, but it could give Musk a shortcut into an industry dominated by Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile.

[EXCLUSIVE]: How Lexar made Muse, the world’s thinnest portable SSD that looks like a metal card
Lexar made a sleek metallic SSD that's just one millimeter across and magnetically attaches to your phone. The engineering is also pretty special on this one.
Lexar Muse SSD.

For decades, Lexar has been one of the most reliable names in memory and storage. From the era of megabyte-class storage cards and picture card drives to industry-first high-capacity cards, NVMe drives, and a stainless steel SD card as recently as 2024, the company has seen — and done — it all. Lexar's legacy has been a mainstay in the camera enthusiast community for years, and it's easy to see the brand's logo in a professional's kit.

So, it was only poetic that for its 30th anniversary, Lexar created something special. And this time around, that something special was targeted at smartphones, the device that has quickly become the camera of choice for the entire world. That reveal came at IFA 2026, where Lexar launched Muse, the world’s thinnest SSD. It's stunningly sleek and almost looks like a metallic card. It's so thin that there's not even a USB-C port, and it attaches magnetically to the back of your phone.

I visited Infinix’s first global flagship store, and it’s unlike any phone store I’ve been to
Phones, coffee, and robots: Infinix's Bali concept store was a delightful surprise
Infinix Flagship Store

I've been to plenty of smartphone stores over the years, and I can't tell any of these experiences apart. Picture neatly arranged tables, rows of smartphones, and the occasional accessory tucked away in a corner. Honestly, this works for most people who show up knowing exactly what they need and just leave.

So, when Infinix invited me to Bali for the grand opening of its first global flagship concept store, I was curious to see what the company had planned. I expected an elaborate showroom and a few extra things, like eye-catching installations to celebrate the occasion. And while there were a few of these, a lot of the things that actually caught my eye were permanent parts of the store.
