One of the best ways to improve your experience with any of the best tablets is to pair it with a stylus pen. And that is especially true if you have one of the best tablets for drawing, like an Apple iPad. Unfortunately, Apple’s stylus, the Apple Pencil line, is usually somewhat expensive. It’s opened the market wide for Apple Pencil alternatives, for sure. But right now you can get one of the most advanced Apple Pencils, the Apple Pencil Pro, at a reduced price of just $99. That’s $30 down from the usual $129, available at both Amazon and Walmart. Tap the button below to pick up the pencil or keep reading to see if it is the one for you.

Why you should buy the Apple Pencil Pro

The Apple Pencil Pro is pretty great, but first we need to see if it can work with your iPad. From the Amazon store page hosted by Apple, we can see that the Apple Pencil Pro works with the “iPad Pro 13-inch (M4), iPad Air 11-inch (M2 and M3), iPad Air 13-inch (M2 and M3), iPad Air 13-inch (M2), iPad mini (A17 Pro), iPad Pro 11-inch (M4), iPad Air 11-inch (M2)” models.

But, as we’ve said before, even in the current year, choosing the right Apple Pencil is not a trivial matter as all four makes of the Apple stylus are still in circulation. However, there’s a good case for the Apple Pencil Pro at this price. Using simple hand gestures you can switch brushes and change tools, saving you time and efforts when doing a lot of back and forth work between different styles when doing art. There’s even expert tilt and pressure sensing, giving you the feel of really writing on paper. The Apple Pencil Pro snaps rather strongly to the iPad via a magnet, which also charges it wirelessly, in a sort of “Qi” charging situation.

Getting the Apple Pencil Pro isn’t always a no-brainer, but at $99 it is the perfect time to get one. Again, that’s a $30 drop from the usual $129 price. You can get this deal at Amazon or Walmart, so be sure to tap the appropriate button below and get in on this deal while it is still around.

Your 15-minute reading habit could now earn you money in Singapore
Your endless scrolling habit finally has some financial competition.
Tap the top of the screen of your Kindle to bring up the menu interface.

I have plenty of apps on my phone reminding me to drink water, stand up, exercise, and stop staring at the screen. Singapore is taking a slightly different approach: instead of another reminder telling people what to do, it's adding a reward. The country has launched a new initiative designed to turn reading into a daily habit. Spend at least 15 minutes reading, record the session through the government's platform, and you'll receive 20 virtual coins.

Collect 1,000 of them, and you can exchange them for S$ 1, or roughly 80 cents in the US. Since only one reading session counts each day, reaching that first dollar takes 50 days. Nobody is getting rich here, obviously. But that's what makes the idea interesting. The cash functions more like the achievement badge or daily streak you'd find in an app, except this one tries to pull your attention away from the screen.

Galaxy S26 owners, the long One UI 9 wait is over
After eight betas, Galaxy S26 is getting the Android 17 update
Samsung Galaxy S26

Galaxy S26 owners have watched Samsung release beta after beta, launch newer phones with finished software, and even start testing that same update on last year's flagships. Thankfully, their turn has finally arrived. Samsung has begun rolling out the stable Android 17-based One UI 9 update to the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26 Plus, and Galaxy S26 Ultra, with the rollout starting in South Korea.

Reports from users indicate that beta participants are among the first to receive the finished build, identified by firmware ending in BZI6. Wider availability should follow in phases, as Samsung typically varies rollout timing by region and carrier.

Samsung’s budget Galaxy A18 will stay updated until 2032—if you can live without 5G
Galaxy A18 gets long software support, but Samsung made one strange omission
Samsung Galaxy A18 4G

Samsung has quietly launched another inexpensive Galaxy phone, and its most impressive specification has nothing to do with the processor, camera, or display. The Galaxy A18 will receive six generations of operating-system upgrades and six years of security updates, giving Samsung’s latest affordable phone an unusually long software runway.

It also ships with Android 17-based One UI 9 out of the box. While this sounds like a great deal for users who only upgrade after a couple of years, Samsung has only launched the 4G version right now.
