Prime Day is June 23 to 26, and Lifehacker is sharing the best sales based on product reviews, comparisons, and price-tracking tools before it's over. Now that the screenless Fitbit Air has made its debut, it's hardly surprising that older Fitbits are on sale. But I think the existence of the Air actually makes older Fitbits seem like an even better deal: They can do everything the Air can do, plus they have a screen to tell you the time and show you a few metrics during your workouts. You don't even have to pay extra for this functionality—for Prime Day, the Charge 6 and Inspire 3 are cheaper than the Air, and in fact, both are at t...

The Meaning of 'Brain Health' Depends on Who You Ask

The Meaning of 'Brain Health' Depends on Who You Ask

Few things are more important than having a healthy brain—but what does “brain health” mean, exactly? It feels like every day I encounter a new multivitamin, health app, or wearable with some version of the promise that the product will “support cognitive function,” “sharpen focus,” and of course, “improve brain health.” As long as these products don't make claims about treating specific diseases, the FDA doesn’t require a strict definition of what that actually means. As a result, “brain health” can mean different things to a supplement company, a meditation app, or an actual neurologist. Meanwhile, consumers are left grasping at straws trying to evaluate these claims. Before you can judge whether a product delivers what it promises, you need to understand what “brain health” actually mea...

I’m a Tech Editor, and These Are the Best Early Prime Day Deals I’m Seeing

We may earn a commission from links on this page. Deal pricing and availability subject to change after time of publication. Amazon Prime Day kicks off next week, but that doesn't mean that you need to wait for tech deals. While the biggest sales will likely start during the sale itself, Amazon currently has discounts on a number of devices, including smart speakers, headphones, and smartphones. If were you planning on upgrading your tech in the near future, it's not a bad time to take a peek at Amazon's sale. Now, seeing as this is Amazon Prime Day, the biggest tech deals I'm seeing are on Amazon products, across the company's many brands. That's all fine and well if you were planning on buying Amazon stuff anyway, but I don't typically want to highlight...

Walmart’s Big Summer Sale Is Ready to Take on Prime Day

We may earn a commission from links on this page. Walmart isn't taking this year's Amazon Prime Day sale sitting down. The retailer has announced plans for this year's Walmart Summer Deals promotion, which will kick off the day before Amazon's big annual sale. Walmart held a major sale alongside last year's Prime Day, too—it seems mega-retailers competing with Amazon have become as much of a tradition as Prime Day itself. Here is what you can expect from Walmart Summer Deals this year.What is the Walmart Summer Deals sale?Walmart Summer Deals is Walmart's answer to Amazon's Prime Day. It is both an in-store and online sale, with deals to be had on most things that Walmart sells (save for groceries). Although the name might vary a bit from year to year, Walmart hosts a...

This Windmill Smart Air Conditioner Is My Home Upgrade of the Week

We may earn a commission from links on this page. As temperatures keep climbing here in New York City, I've been thinking a lot about what's made my apartment actually livable through the last couple of summers. The Windmill Window Air Conditioner isn't a new upgrade for me; I've been using it for about a year and a half after scoring one for free from a friend. But with the heat recently roaring back to full strength, it feels like the perfect moment to shout about it. Here’s why this is the best air conditioner I've ever used. What really makes this AC a tech upgrade is how the companion app lets you control the unit from your phone. Before I had the Windmill, I'd come home to a sweltering apartment, crank the AC, and wait in front of it. Now, I can open the app on ...
