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.

Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra: Everything we know about Samsung’s next flagship foldable
Though it will feature improvements across the board, the memory crisis might not spare Samsung’s Fold 8 Ultra.
Electronics, Speaker, White Board

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is not the phone that reimagines what a foldable looks like. As that job falls to its sibling, the wider-screen Galaxy Z Fold 8, the Ultra could come as the direct successor to the Galaxy Z Fold 7, with the same tall, narrow design and the same book-style proportions, for the same audience. 

If you've used a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold in the past and think that the shape is perfect for you, the Fold 8 Ultra could be just the right phone for you. It has a redesigned inner display, a substantially larger battery, faster charging, and the new Flex Titanium technology designed to minimize the crease that has troubled Samsung's foldables for years.

Personal Intelligence in Search now connects to Google Calendar
Google Search AI can now read your Calendar and add events automatically
Google Calendar

Google is taking another step toward making Search feel less like a search engine and more like a personal assistant. The company has announced that AI Mode's Personal Intelligence can now connect directly to Google Calendar, allowing it not only to reference your schedule but also to create calendar events on your behalf.

Until now, Personal Intelligence mainly pulled information from apps like Gmail and Google Photos to provide more relevant responses. Calendar changes the equation because it becomes the first connected Google app that doesn't just provide context. It can actively act. The feature is rolling out now to users in the United States, with a wider international rollout planned later.
