The Apple Watch Ultra 2 is cheaper than weve ever seen it before, dropping well below the Prime Day price. The companys premium smartwatch is available via Amazon for $689, which is a savings of $110. This is Apples latest and greatest (for now) ultra-premium smartwatch. It boasts the companys Double Tap feature, which lets users pinch quickly in mid-air to bring up the home screen and make adjustments. The high-end watch is geared toward serious athletes and others with specialized fitness-tracking needs, so the sensors are on point and the exterior is incredibly durable. It still features the same 49-millimeter form factor as the original, so it's not too chonky. The screen is much brighter than the OG Ultra, up to 3,000 nits. This should make it easier to read in low light conditions, which is another boon for extreme athletes who do early morning training sessions. As for power, the smartwatch includes Apples new S9 chip, which allows for the aforementioned Double Tap gestural controls and upgraded Siri functionality. The battery can last up to 72 hours on a single charge, so long as its in low power mode. Otherwise, itll brick out after around 36 hours. This is a whole lot of smartwatch. Not only is it double the price of the Apple Watch 9, but it's chock full of features that most people dont need. This is a machine for serious fitness enthusiasts or those who go off the grid for long periods of time. With that being said, todays sale makes this thing pretty darn attractive for the rest of us. October Prime Day 2024 is around the corner, serving as Amazons (un)official kickoff to the holiday shopping season. If youre eager to snag some early holiday deals for those on your list (or yourself), heres what we know so far about the next Prime Day shopping event. When is October Prime Day 2024?

Still, there are a few discounts worth checking out: A four-pack of Apple's diminutive AirTag trackers are $24 off Apple's list price, for instance, while Keychron's C3 Pro, our favorite mechanical keyboard for those on a budget, is still at an all-time low of $25. Other picks from our guides to the best microSD cards and affordable wireless earbuds are on sale as well, as is Sonos' bag-friendly Roam 2 speaker and Elgato's new Stream Deck Neo control panel.

Signify launched a more future-proofed Philips Hue Sync Box, the companys gizmo that plugs into your TV and creates a light show synced with your onscreen content. Unlike the original model from 2019, the upgraded box supports HDMI 2.1, making it better suited to the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. The Philips Hue Play HDMI Sync Box supports resolutions up to 8K at 60Hz for video and 4K at 120Hz for gaming. In theory, this should make for a smoother, more screen-accurate Hue-powered light show. Even if you dont have a current-gen gaming console or compatible TV, the box will be better equipped to handle the gear you buy down the road. Signify The box can sync with up to 10 color-capable Hue lights. As with the previous model, you can tweak the brightness and intensity to your liking in the Hue app. The system also works with Alexa, Google and Siri voice assistants, a feature the company added to the older model during Covid lockdowns. The Philips Hue Play HDMI Sync Box 8K is available now from the companys website. It costs $350.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/home/smart-home/the-new-philips-hue-sync-box-can-keep-up-with-your-game-consoles-framerates-160025361.html?src=rss
