The HoverAir X1 Pro is the best selfie drone — and it's currently $426 off for Prime Day

Tom's Guide11 hours ago
As part of this year's Prime Day sales, we're really seeing drone deals take off, and we've already spotted some major discounts from the likes of DJI and Potensic. HoverAir isn't far behind either, as the brand has slashed the price of all its drones. Yep, the X1, X1 Pro and X1 ProMax are all on sale — but I want to draw your attention to a specific deal...
The HoverAir X1 Pro Skiing Combo is currently 30% off at Amazon, bringing it down to $994 from its retail price of $1,420. I've thoroughly tested this drone for my HoverAir X1 Pro review so trust me when I say this is a deal you shouldn't miss. It includes the 4K drone, smart batteries, thermal batteries, and a Joystick and Beacon which, when combined, become a very cool controller.
The HoverAir X1 Pro Skiing Combo includes the 4K drone, smart batteries, a thermal smart battery, the Joystick and Beacon to control the drone, a carry case and other goodies.
In the U.K., the HoverAir X1 Pro Skiing Combo is discounted by 25%, bringing it down to just £973 as opposed to its retail price of £1,298.
I reviewed both the HoverAir X1 Pro and X1 ProMax together, and in my HoverAir X1 Pro review, I said both drones were highly capable and easy to fly. The X1 Pro can record smooth 4K/60fps or FHD/120fps slow motion footage.
You don't even need a controller or smartphone to fly it. Simply press the button on its body to cycle through the various short-form recording modes available, and the drone will autonomously record the footage and save it into its 32GB internal hard drive.
The X1 Pro features 10 intelligent flight modes: Hover, Zoom Out, Follow, Orbit, Bird's Eye, Dolly Track, Indoor Follow, Dolly Zoom, Ski Mode and Cycling Mode. You can see a couple examples in the video above. The Skiing Combo includes the Joystick and Beacon which you can combine to make a functioning controller. They're highly responsive and make flying extremely easy.
Like I mentioned up top, the bundle includes thermal batteries. If you're planning on going skiing later this year, or want to fly your drone in sub-zero temperatures, you'll appreciate the thermal battery which can operate in -4°F / -20°C!
I'd wholeheartedly recommend the X1 Pro to anyone who wants a funky little drone to have fun, and one that can operate in harsh weather conditions. It's currently 30% off in the U.S. and 25% off in the U.K. So what are you waiting for?!

Want a Drone This Summer? DJI Mini 4K Bundle Is at an All-Time Low for Prime Day

DJI has been the go-to first thought in drones for a very long time and Mini 4K is their cheapest model: This drone's ultra-light build (weighing less than 249 grams) makes it even more appealing as it is able to fly it freely without having to stress about complicated rules or registering the vehicle. To celebrate Prime Day, Amazon has come up with an unparalleled deal that's only for Prime members which has made this package the #1 best-seller on the site among drones. Now you can find the DJI Mini 4K Fly More Combo available for just $359, which saves you 20% off the regular price of $449. This great deal is the lowest price Amazon has ever offered on this set, and it includes three batteries for maximum flight time. See at Amazon The core element of the drone is its 4K Ultra HD camera which captures silky, high-definition video and 12 MP images. Thanks to 3-axis gimbal stabilization, video feels smooth and cinematic even in challenging conditions. Regardless of capturing sunrises or high-speed action, the performance of the camera ensures your content will look professional in each shot. The drone supports one-tap takeoff and landing, GPS Return to Home, and stable hovering, which makes it simple to operate even if you're a beginner. DJI has also included in-app tutorials and tutorial materials so you can learn the ropes easily and start capturing stunning aerial footage. The foldable, lightweight design is easy to take the drone with you wherever you go and wind resistance gives stable flight even on windy days. Increased battery life is also a major benefit of this package: The Fly More Combo includes three smart flight batteries, offering a total of 93 minutes of flying time. This means you'll spend more time in the air and less at the charging station. The two-way charging hub included makes it simple to charge your batteries and the shoulder bag provides a tidy way to carry all that you'll require for an entire day of flying with you. The Mini 4K also supports long-range control and video transmission with up to 10 kilometers range. You can fly vast open areas and get amazing views from creative angles. The drone's anti-interference technology delivers a stable and unobstructed connection so you can focus on getting the best shot. Smart QuickShots modes such as Helix, Dronie, Rocket, Circle, and Boomerang enable easy creation of engaging videos. This Prime Day deal is a rare chance to get one of the most popular drones on the market at an all-time low price. See at Amazon

Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500 slip as Trump stays firm on August tariff deadline, announces copper duties

US stocks were little changed on Tuesday as Wall Street weighed President Trump's latest threats of stiff tariffs against his three-week reprieve on the return of sweeping "Liberation Day" duties. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) slipped slightly, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) dipped around 0.4%. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) rose just above the flatline after all three gauges retreated in the prior session. Stocks treaded water for a second day in a row after Trump moved his July 9 deadline for the resumption of "reciprocal" tariff rates to Aug. 1, giving countries three extra weeks to negotiate trade deals with the US. On Tuesday morning, Trump said there would be no extension beyond the Aug. 1 deadline, when countries are expected to begin paying tariffs, as his administration continues sending letters to foreign officials notifying them of the rates on imported goods. His comments come amid investor speculation that Trump might once again delay the timeline in what has been dubbed the "TACO" trade — the idea that "Trump always chickens out," or that he will eventually dial back on his trade threats. Still, parts of the market responded sharply to the headlines. Copper futures (HG=F) jumped more than 10% after Trump pledged to impose a 50% tariff on certain imports. Meanwhile, major pharmaceutical stocks, including Pfizer (PFE), Amgen (AMGN), and AbbVie (ABBV), pared earlier gains after Trump said he plans to unveil a new pharmaceutical tariff program "very soon."

The e-commerce giant has extended the event to four days this year, with investors on watch for signs that tariff costs are pushing up price tags. Elsewhere, Wall Street expects a quiet week in terms of economic releases and earnings. Minutes from the Federal Reserve's June meeting are due on Wednesday, while Delta's (DAL) results on Thursday signal the return of earnings season. Yahoo Finance's Brooke DiPalma reports: Read more here. Solar stocks were on track to end the session lower on Tuesday after President Trump signed an executive order aimed at stricter enforcement of already scaled-back credits for solar and wind projects inside the 'big, beautiful' bill, which was signed into law on July 4. Panel maker First Solar (FSLR) sank 5%. Inverter manufacturer SolarEdge (SEDG) dropped 5%. Shares of residential solar firm Sunrun (RUN) also fell 10%. At issue was a provision in the legislation that allowed solar and wind developments to still be eligible for scaled-back credits if they began construction within 12 months. The executive order signed on Monday night instructs the US Treasury to enforce stricter enforcement of 'beginning of construction' in order to close loopholes. The order is aimed at appeasing fiscal conservatives who argued 'in construction' was a loose term that allowed green projects to receive extra time to qualify for credits. Copper (HG=F) futures surged Tuesday after President Trump said he would impose a 50% tariff on imports to the US. Copper futures soared over 10% at last check. Yahoo Finance's Ben Werschkul reports: Read more here. Yahoo Finance's Claire Boston reports: Read more here. President Trump said on Tuesday that he will be announcing a new program for pharmaceutical tariffs "very soon." He suggested that there would be a grace period for drug companies to move manufacturing to the United States before they face steep tariffs. "We're going to give people about a year, year and a half to come in, and after that they're going to be tariffed," Trump said during a Cabinet meeting. "If they have to bring the pharmaceuticals into the country, … they're going to be tariffed at a very high rate — like 200%." Pharmaceutical stocks such as Pfizer (PFE), Amgen (AMGN), and AbbVie (ABBV) dipped on Trump's comments, though they remained in the green. Trump also noted that he plans to unveil similar programs for chips and other sectors. Yahoo Finance's Allie Canal reports: Read more here. Uber (UBER) shares briefly touched another intraday record on Tuesday before retreating. The stock was down more than 1% by mid-session on Tuesday. Shares of the ride-hailing company have been on a tear this year, gaining more than 60% and closing at an all-time high on Monday. Tesla's (TSLA) muted response to its robotaxis event in Texas two weeks ago could be helping the stock. Uber and Alphabet's (GOOG, GOOGL) Waymo have expanded their partnership to offer autonomous ride-hailing services in Atlanta and Austin. President Trump said there will be no extension beyond the Aug. 1 deadline, when countries are expected to begin paying tariffs, as his administration continues sending letters to foreign officials notifying them of the new import duties. "As per letters sent to various countries yesterday, in addition to letters that will be sent today, tomorrow, and for the next short period of time, TARIFFS WILL START BEING PAID ON AUGUST 1, 2025. There has been no change to this date, and there will be no change," wrote Trump on social media. "In other words, all money will be due and payable starting AUGUST 1, 2025 - No extensions will be granted," he added. His comments come amid investor speculation that Trump might once again delay the timeline, following a previous pause days after April's Liberation Day, when he announced a broad reciprocal tariff plan targeting US trading partners. Circle (CRCL) shares dipped as much as 4% before paring losses on Tuesday after a Wall Street analyst flagged growing risks from rising competition and looming interest rate cuts that could take a bite out of the stablecoin issuer's revenue. The stock has surged more than 500% since Circle's public debut last month at $31 per share, buoyed by optimism around the broader adoption of asset-backed digital tokens. But Mizuho analysts pushed back on the bullish outlook, initiating coverage with an Underperform rating and a $85 price target, compared with its recent levels above $200 a share. Circle makes much of its money from interest income — specifically from the short-term Treasury bills that underpin its stablecoin, USDC. "We believe consensus does not fully account for looming interest rate cuts, and also overstates USDC's medium-term growth potential," Mizuho managing director Dan Dolev and his team wrote. Dolev also pointed to rising distribution costs as Circle shares a portion of its reserve income with partners like Coinbase (COIN). The analysts also pointed out last month's passage of the GENIUS Act, legislation aimed at creating regulatory guardrails for the industry, could be the catalyst that brings competing stablecoins to the market. Stocks were little changed Tuesday as investors awaited further trade developments after President Trump sent tariff letters to 14 countries and extended his deadline for "reciprocal" tariff rates from July 9 to August 1, giving trading partners three more weeks to negotiate. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) rose 0.1%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) fell slightly. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) edged up 0.3%, on the heels of a losing start to the week for the major gauges. Tesla stock (TSLA) rose 1% after sinking more than 6% in the prior session as CEO Elon Musk announced his intention to start a new third political party in the US. Tesla stock (TSLA) rose 1% in premarket trading on Tuesday. However, it remains below the key 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, according to Yahoo Finance analysis.

Why Caterpillar Stock Jumped 11.5% in June

Caterpillar raised its dividend per share by 7% in June. The company grew its backlog by a record $5 billion in the first quarter. 10 stocks we like better than Caterpillar › Caterpillar (NYSE: CAT) stock handily outperformed the markets in June, rallying 11.5%, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI) and the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC), meanwhile, gained 4.9% and 4.3%, respectively. Tailwinds were aplenty for shares of the mining and construction equipment giant, including a dividend hike, multiple analyst ratings upgrades, and a trade truce between the U.S. and China. Caterpillar has extensive global operations, and China is an important market for the company. That is why the stock rose after President Donald Trump announced a trade deal with China on June 10. A day later, Caterpillar raised its dividend per share by 7%, marking its 31st consecutive year of dividend increases. Caterpillar confirmed that it continues to generate robust free cash flows from its core machinery, energy, and transportation (ME&T) businesses despite a challenging business environment, and put to rest investors' concerns about its ability to grow dividends. That also caught analysts' attention, encouraging many to reiterate or upgrade their price targets on Caterpillar stock in June. For example, while Citigroup analyst Kyle Menges raised Caterpillar stock's price target to $420 per share from $370 a share, analysts at Bank of America reiterated their price objective of $385 a share. Analysts at Bank of America and Bernstein see strong growth potential in Caterpillar's E&T segment. Bank of America expects E&T to be a key earnings growth driver for the company, driven by trends like global energy demand and higher spending in oil and gas pipelines, power generation, and data centers. All these factors should push demand for Caterpillar's engines, power generation systems, and turbines. Caterpillar provided great insight into its expectations for 2025 at a recent earnings conference call. Although the company expects lower sales from its construction industries and resource industries (mining equipment) businesses this year, it projects continued strength in energy and transportation to offset much of the weakness. Because of its diverse business, Caterpillar expects only a slight fall in revenue for the full year because of tariffs, if at all. Caterpillar, in fact, saw a strong order flow in the first quarter, and its backlog grew by a record $5 billion, or 17% sequentially. The company now expects to generate ME&T free cash flow at the "top half" of its guidance range of $5 billion to $10 billion. If you ask me, Caterpillar is one of the finest and few iconic American companies you'd want to buy at every dip and hold forever.
