The Apple Watch Series 10 is $100 off ahead of Prime Day
Amazon Prime Day is around the corner, but there are plenty of great deals to be found before the July 8 to 11 event. Right now you can pick up the Apple Watch 10 for $100 off its normal price. That's the lowest we've ever seen it, and trust us, 25 percent off on current-generation Apple products is not easy to come by. It's hard to believe that the Apple Watch is already ten years old. It seems like only yesterday that we got our hands on the first generation, and now the Apple Watch 10 is counting the days until the next generation is announced. Whether you're looking to upgrade from an older Apple Watch or this is your first time buying an Apple smartwatch (though keep in mind an iPhone is required to use an Apple Watch), this sale is a great opportunity to pick one up at a fantastic value. The tenth generation of the Apple Watch represents a powerhouse of computing on your wrist. In our hands-on review, we loved the comprehensive health and fitness tracking capabilities on the watch, which has been a strong niche for Apple. We were sad to see the blood oxygen app removed following a patent dispute, but features like fall detection and sleep apnea tracking are still intact. It's also the thinnest Apple Watch yet, feeling more like a slim accessory than a bulky gadget. We gave the Apple Watch 10 a score of 90 out of 100, and it remains our top pick for best smartwatch. The $100 off sale is available across multiple sizes, colors and strap options. The sale includes both GPS and Wi-Fi only models, as well as models with LTE connectivity.

Google faces trouble in Japan over Pixel phones, even as popular as they have become
A Japanese court has banned Google from selling Pixel 7 series smartphones in the country after ruling that the company violated a patent. This development comes as Pixel phones have become increasingly popular in Japan, where they recently became the second most popular brand behind Apple. According to a new report, the court found that Google had infringed on a patent related to control signal mapping technology. This patent covers the way an acknowledgment signal (ACK) is sent from a base station to a device in an LTE network, which is a core part of 4G communications. The court determined that this technology was used without permission in the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro. Because of this ruling, Google is now banned from selling, importing, displaying, or transferring Pixel 7 series phones in Japan. The judge also criticized how Google responded to the legal case, describing its approach as having an "insincere attitude," which reportedly influenced the decision to impose the sales ban. Google Pixel 7 Pro. | Image credit — PhoneArena What makes this more concerning is that the issue may not stop here. The company behind the complaint, South Korea-based Pantech, is also seeking to expand the ban to include the newer Pixel 8 and upcoming Pixel 9 series. It's not clear yet whether those efforts will succeed, but it adds pressure on Google in one of its most promising international markets. Japan has become an important region for Pixel. As we previously reported, Google saw strong growth in the country in 2023, largely driven by the popularity of the Pixel 7 series and the affordable Pixel 7a. A wider ban could disrupt that momentum and impact future sales. Pantech, the company involved in the case, no longer makes smartphones. The legal action was handled by IdeaHub, a group that focuses on monetizing patents. While Pantech has been inactive in the smartphone market, its intellectual property is now being used in court to challenge competitors. For now, only the Pixel 7 series is affected. But with more models potentially under review, Google's position in Japan could face more challenges ahead. We will continue to monitor how this story develops, especially if the dispute expands to other Pixel devices. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!
