Benson Boone Outsells His Competition Several Times Over
Benson Boone debuts his new album American Heart in the runner-up spot on the Billboard 200 this week. While he misses reaching the summit, the Grammy-nominated pop singer achieves a new career high, as his latest full-length collection comes in behind I'm the Problem by Morgan Wallen.
American Heart wasn't the most consumed album in the United States, but it was the bestselling. When it comes to pure purchases, Boone wins by a wide margin.
American Heart Debuts at No. 1
Luminate reports that in its first seven days of availability in the country, American Heart sold 30,000 copies. That sum is easily the largest of the week, and Boone's latest opens at No. 1 on the Top Album Sales chart.
A Clear Winner
Boone didn't face any serious competition on the Top Album Sales tally this frame. Coming in at No. 2 is I Quit, the latest full-length by Haim. That set, powered by the three Grammy-nominated sisters, kicks off its time on that list with a little under 13,400 pure purchases. That means Boone outsold his closest competitor by more than twice over.
Benson Boone Vs. Morgan Wallen
American Heart arrives with 61,000 equivalent units shifted. Almost exactly half of those were actual sales, while streaming activity made up much of the rest. Unlike on the Top Album Sales ranking, Boone misses the No. 1 spot on the overall tally, the Billboard 200, and he didn't come very close to the summit when looking at the final numbers. I'm the Problem moved another 177,000 equivalent units in its sixth week — almost three times as many as American Heart shifted in the same timeframe.
American Heart Starts on Four Billboard Charts
American Heart debuts on four Billboard charts, and opens inside the top five on all of them. In addition to ruling the Top Album Sales list, the newly-released project also kicks off its time at No. 1 on the Vinyl Albums ranking. The set narrowly enters the highest half of the top 10 on the Top Streaming Albums list, beginning at No. 5.

This Portable TV Turns My Patio Into a Full-Blown Entertainment Hub, and It's on Sale for Prime Day
Amazon Prime Day deal: The Skyworth 24-inch P100 Companion Series portable TV is seeing a 25% discount for Prime Day. That drops the price down to $299.99, or $100 off its usual retail price, making it an impressive deal on a battery-powered TV that's designed to be taken outdoors. Back in the day -- we're talking 40 years ago -- portable TVs were a big thing. That's when people would tune into over-the-air signals with a Sony Watchman and watch whatever local TV stations were broadcasting. But with smartphones, tablets and laptops now able to stream content wirelessly, including live TV from apps like YouTube TV and many other services, a portable TV seems like something of a novelty. And to a certain degree, that's just what Skyworth's battery-powered 24-inch P100 Companion Series portable TV is. At a typical list price of $400, it isn't exactly cheap, but it's also the largest portable TV I've ever used, and it's turned my patio into an entertainment oasis. Read more: Best TVs of 2025 The Skyworth 24-inch TV has an integrated battery than runs up to 3 hours. David Carnoy/CNET There are a few key things to highlight about the 1,080-pixel Skyworth portable TV. First, it's Wi-Fi-enabled and is equipped with Google TV, so it's a streaming device. It's also got Chromecast built-in so you can cast to it from an Android phone (I was able to cast the Spectrum TV app to it from my iPhone 16 Pro but had to fiddle around with the settings in my Google Home app to get it to work). And finally, it has an integrated battery that delivers up to 3 hours of battery life in energy-saving mode (the battery life seemed closer to 2 hours in my tests). You can also plug the TV in -- that's what you have to do to charge it -- just like a normal TV. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. David Carnoy/CNET Best Prime Day TV Deals Prime Day is well known as one of the best times of the year to save big on a new TV. We've checked through every deal available, and rounded up the best discounts for you to take advantage of.

However, when you start streaming, the picture does appear to be 1080p. You just aren't going to get inky blacks. But it is a matte screen that cuts down on the glare and has a relatively wide viewing angle. The TV is designed to be taken outdoors, though it has no water resistance rating, so you wouldn't want to leave it out in the rain. (Sylvox makes a 15.6-inch portable TV that's apparently waterproof, but it's considerably smaller than this TV). There's a mini soundbar in the base -- Skyworth says the TV is equipped with Dolby Audio -- that can play pretty loud, but the dynamic range is a little narrow. That's a polite way of saying there isn't a whole lot of bass. But again, for casual viewing, it does the job and you could connect a better speaker to it if you wanted to you. You could also connect a streaming device like a Roku 4K Streaming Stick to it. On the side of the TV, you'll find a single HDMI port, a USB port out for power, plus an optical output, 3.5mm auxiliary output and Ethernet port. The TV's connectivity options. David Carnoy/CNET Screwed into the back of TV is a handle made out of faux leather for carrying the TV, which is fairly lightweight at 11 pounds. Skyworth also sells a carrying case for it, which is also currently on sale for $50. Is this a better option than a portable monitor? In some ways, yes. First off, this is bigger than most portable monitors, and to reiterate, the key feature here is the integrated battery (alas, it doesn't appear to be replaceable), so you can view the TV wherever you want (for 2 to 3 hours anyway). I used it on my home Wi-Fi but also connected the TV to my phone's hot spot when I was outside, and it worked fine streaming content. True, it's significantly more expensive than many portable monitors, but the use case for a portable monitor tends to be different.

King Charles Posts Stunning Photo of Himself Standing All Alone in the Rain
When it comes to the royal family, there's never a shortage of iconic photos. Whether it's Prince William and Kate Middleton looking stunning or Queen Camilla and Duchess Sophie serving timeless elegance, the royal archives are basically a style goldmine. King Charles is no exception and Buckingham Palace just dropped another stunning photo of the monarch that has royal fans talking. The post, shared on Monday, July 7, marked the 20th anniversary of the 7/7 bombings in London. To honor the day, King Charles shared a heartfelt written message (complete with his signature) but it's the second slide that truly stood out. The image shows the monarch standing alone in a dark suit during his visit to the memorial site. While others linger in the background, the photo captures a quiet, emotional moment that really speaks volumes. 'Today, as we mark twenty years since the tragic events of 7th July 2005, my heartfelt thoughts and special prayers remain with all those whose lives were forever changed on that terrible Summer's day,' Charles wrote. 'While the horrors will never be forgotten, we may take comfort from the way such events rally communities together in solidarity, solace and determination. It is this spirit of unity that has helped London, and our nation, to heal,' he continued. 'As we remember those we lost, let us therefore use this 20th anniversary to reaffirm our commitment to building a society where people of all faiths and backgrounds can live together with mutual respect and understanding, always standing firm against those who would seek to divide us.' Just last week, royal watchers were treated to another round of King Charles content—this time in a lighter mood. During the historic Ceremony of the Keys at the Palace of Holyroodhouse, he looked especially dapper in a beige blazer, matching trousers, and a bold green-and-red striped tie. The caption read: 'Today, the historic Ceremony of the Keys took place in the Gardens of the Palace of Holyroodhouse. Dating back centuries, this tradition symbolises Edinburgh welcoming its monarch.' Want all the latest entertainment news sent right to your inbox? Click here.
