JBL speakers are very popular, and the hottest portable ones are the JBL Charge 6 and JBL Flip 7. Both sound great and are very easy to carry around, but they are on the pricier side of the spectrum. Thankfully, they are at a record-low price right now, and you can get them at a $50 discount. Buy the JBL Charge 6 for just $149.95 ($50 off) Buy the JBL Flip 7 for just $99.95 ($50 off) These offers come from Woot, an Amazon-owned website that focuses on deals.

JBL Charge 6 JBL Charge 6 JBL Charge 6 The JBL Charge 6 is here, with some key upgrades. The JBL Charge 6 is new and improved with its upgraded durability, customizable sound, and longer battery life. See price at Woot! Save $50.00 The JBL Charge 6 is an awesome portable speaker. In fact, our sister site, crowns it as the top option in their list of the best Bluetooth speakers. Of course, this isn't the absolute best, but it is the best considering the price and portability it offers. You can upgrade to a much bigger and more expensive speaker for better audio, but it won't be as convenient. The Charge 6's experience is perfect for the adventurers among us, or for those who want a great backyard speaker. It is built like a little tank, with improved rubber bumpers and an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance. The sound quality is outstanding for its size, and those who like a strong bass will especially like this one. If you're unsatisfied with the sound profile, though, the app comes with a seven-band equalizer. Battery life is impressive for something so small, at 24 hours. You can even use it to charge your smartphone and accessories, so it kind of doubles as a power bank. Other features include lossless audio, Auracast for syncing multiple speakers together, and more.

Save $50.00 The JBL Charge 6 is portable, but not as portable as the JBL Flip 7. This one fits perfectly in a backpack drink holder. Many compare its size to that of a water bottle. It's an excellent little speaker, especially at only $99.95. It comes with a carabiner and loop, so you can easily hang it from anywhere. This one is also easy to carry around during hikes or long walks. Like its bigger brother, it has a nice construction and an IP68 rating, so it is also very resistant. While tiny, it has great sound quality that is actually very similar to that of the Charge 6. The main difference is that bass isn't as thumpy with this one. Additionally, battery life isn't as impressive, as it has 14 hours of battery life per charge. It can't charge other devices, so there's also that. If you value portability but still want great sound, this little guy offers a great balance, and at $99.95 it is quite the steal! If you're not sure which speaker to pick, our friends at also have a detailed JBL Charge 6 vs JBL Flip 7 comparison. Check it out to make a more educated decision.

UK Competition Appeal Tribunal Certifies Class of Amazon Customers in £1.3B+ Antitrust Buy Box Case
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Solicitors at Hagens Berman EMEA LLP representing millions of Amazon customers alleging the tech giant Amazon abused its market dominance today celebrated along with its co-counsel law firm Charles Lyndon Limited a major victory in the case as London's Competition Appeal Tribunal (CAT) performing its gatekeeper role unanimously decided to certify the case, brought by these firms, allowing it to proceed to the next stage. 'Achieving class certification in the UK is no easy hurdle, and often it is not yet readily granted in competition cases.' 'We are incredibly pleased with the Tribunal's decision in this matter and recognise how monumental this is for millions of Amazon customers in the UK who we believe have been forced to pay higher prices directly due to Amazon's actions,' said Steve Berman of Hagens Berman EMEA. 'Achieving class certification in the UK is no easy hurdle, and often it is not yet readily granted in competition cases.' The 61-page 24 July 24 2025, judgment responds to two pending actions against Amazon, one from Hagens Berman EMEA's client, consumer advocate and class representative, Robert Hammond, and one from Professor Andreas Stephan represented separately seeking claims on behalf of more than 200,000 third-party retailers. Both however allege that Amazon uses its algorithm to rank search results in favor of products that are more profitable for the company in its online marketplace, causing millions of consumers to pay artificially inflated prices. Robert Hammond's case is valued in the billions of British pounds and comes backed with Hagens Berman's parent law firms' history, pedigree, and expertise of US antitrust litigation against Amazon. With today's unanimous act of the CAT certifying the claim, they also certified Robert Hammond was suitable to act as the class representative, in his case against Amazon, on behalf of all British consumers on an opt-out basis, meaning class members will be automatically included as part of the case unless they choose to exclude themselves. If you are domiciled within the UK and purchased a product on between October 2015 and June 7, 2023, find out your rights. Hagens Berman EMEA is affiliated with Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, a US based law firm currently pursuing 12 antitrust, price-fixing and price gouging allegations against Amazon. Robert Hammond is supported by a deep bench which also includes co-counsel Charles Lyndon Limited, Philip Moser KC and Ben Rayment, at Monckton Chambers, economic experts Fideres and Four World Capital who are the funders for the case. 'We look forward to continuing to fight for UK consumers and their right to demand transparency from Amazon,' said Sergei Purewal, Hagens Berman EMEA solicitor leading the case. 'While Amazon may believe it is too big to fail, we see that very mindset as evidence that it has abused its market dominance to the detriment of millions of its own UK consumers.' About the Claim Against Amazon According to the claim, filed on June 7, 2023, Amazon uses a proprietary algorithm to rank product offer results when consumers search for products in its Marketplace. The first-ranked item in the search results typically appears in the 'Buy Box,' allowing consumers to purchase the product with one click without choosing between competing sellers or retail offerings. By choosing the purchase option in the Buy Box, the consumer buys from whichever seller Amazon's algorithm determines to be the Buy Box winner. According to the firms' investigation, overwhelmingly—about 80% of the time—consumers accept Amazon's recommendation and purchase through the Buy Box due to its efficient design. The claim alleges that the algorithm steers consumers towards product offerings that are more profitable for Amazon while obscuring other, often more affordable options, thus dampening price and quality competition among sellers and causing consumers to pay artificially inflated rates. 'The CMA considered that: the process of selection may unfairly favour products that are FBA [fulfilment by Amazon] over products that are FBM [fulfilment by merchant]. The CMA was concerned that any bias or discrimination in the selection process may reduce competition between sellers on the UK Amazon Marketplace and/or reduce the scale and competitiveness of fulfilment service providers that serve merchants on the UK Amazon Marketplace,' the CAT said in its judgment, citing concern that Amazon's actions may 'disadvantage merchants' and 'lead to higher prices for consumer by way of passing on of higher fulfilment costs.' In discussing the two claims' experts' findings and claims the CAT wrote, 'In either case (or in reality some combination of the two) consumers who bought from sellers supplying FBA would have paid less for the same purchase by either buying from a lower priced alternative (FBM) supplier or from the same supplier at a lower price.'

Trump's AI plan calls for massive data centers. Here's how it may affect energy in the US
President Donald Trump's plan to boost artificial intelligence and build data centers across the U.S. could speed up a building boom that was already expected to strain the nation's ability to power it. The White House released the 'AI Action Plan' Wednesday, vowing to expedite permitting for construction of energy-intensive data centers as it looks to make the country a leader in a business that tech companies and others are pouring billions of dollars into. The plan says to combat 'radical climate dogma,' a number of restrictions — including clean air and water laws — could be lifted, aligning with Trump's 'American energy dominance' agenda and his efforts to undercut clean energy. Here's what you need to know. What AI means for the environment Massive amounts of electricity are needed to support the complex servers, equipment and more for AI. Electricity demand from data centers worldwide is set to more than double by 2030, to slightly more than the entire electricity consumption of Japan today, the International Energy Agency said earlier this year. In many cases, that electricity may come from burning coal or natural gas. These fossil fuels emit planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions, including carbon dioxide and methane. This in turn is tied to extreme weather events that are becoming more severe, frequent and costly. The data centers used to fuel AI also need a tremendous amount of water to keep cool. That means they can strain water sources in areas that may have little to spare. What Big Tech is saying and doing about finding all that power Typically, tech giants, up-and-comers and other developers try to keep an existing power plant online to meet demand, experts say, and most existing power plants in the U.S. are still producing electricity using fossil fuels — most often natural gas. In certain areas of the U.S., a combination of renewables and energy storage in the form of batteries are coming online. But tapping into nuclear power is especially of interest as a way to reduce data center-induced emissions while still meeting demand and staying competitive. Amazon said last month it would spend $20 billion on data center sites in Pennsylvania, including one alongside a nuclear power plant. The investment allows Amazon to plug right into the plant, a scrutinized but faster approach for the company's development timeline. Meta recently signed a deal to secure nuclear power to meet its computing needs. Microsoft plans to buy energy from the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant, and Google previously signed a contract to purchase it from multiple small modular reactors in the works. What's at stake in the kind of energy that powers data centers Data centers are often built where electricity is cheapest, and often, that's not from renewables. And sometimes data centers are cited as a reason to extend the lives of traditional, fossil-fuel-burning power plants. But just this week, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres called on the world's largest tech players to fuel their data center needs entirely with renewables by 2030. It's necessary to use fewer fossil fuels, he said. Experts say it's possible for developers, investors and the tech industry to decarbonize. However, though industry can do a lot with clean energy, the emerging demands are so big that it can't be clean energy alone, said University of Pennsylvania engineering professor Benjamin Lee. More generative AI, ChatGPT and massive data centers means 'relying on wind and solar alone with batteries becomes really, really expensive,' Lee added, hence the attention on natural gas, but also nuclear. What does AI growth mean for my electricity bills? Regardless of what powers AI, the simple law of supply and demand makes it all but certain that costs for consumers will rise. New data center projects might require both new energy generation and existing generation. Developers might also invest in batteries or other infrastructure like transmission lines. All of this costs money, and it needs to be paid for from somewhere. 'In a lot of places in the U.S., they are seeing that rates are going up because utilities are making these moves to try to plan,' said Amanda Smith, a senior scientist at research organization Project Drawdown. 'They're planning transmission infrastructure, new power plants for the growth and the load that's projected, which is what we want them to do,' she added. 'But we as ratepayers will wind up seeing rates go up to cover that.' ___ Alexa St. John is an Associated Press climate reporter. Follow her on X: @alexa_stjohn.
