The viral invisible selfie stick camera is down to its lowest price ever
SAVE 32%: As of Sept. 19, the Insta360 X4 Standard Bundle is on sale for $339.99 at Amazon, down from a list price of $499.99. That's a discount of 32%, or a savings of $160.
If you’ve seen those mind-bending travel videos on TikTok where it looks like a drone is following someone, chances are it was actually shot on an Insta360 camera. The brand is famous for its "invisible selfie stick" effect, which magically erases the stick from your footage. And right now, their latest 8K model is on sale for its lowest price yet.
As of Sept. 19, the Insta360 X4 Standard Bundle is on sale for $339.99 at Amazon. That's a 32% discount off its $499.99 list price, saving you $160.
The X4 is basically built for creators. You can shoot stunning 8K 360-degree video, which gives you the freedom to reframe your shot after you've already filmed. Or if you prefer a more traditional look, you can also use it as a standard 4K wide-angle action camera. It's cold resistant and waterproof (according to the manufacturer, it can tolerate temperatures as low as -4ºF), and features built-in stabilization to keep your footage smooth.
Bonus: The Insta360 app has all kinds of AI editing tools and features. If you don't want to spend hours sifting through footage, it can automatically pull out the most interesting moments and edit them into a shareable clip. The camera also comes with removable lens guards for extra protection (because accidents happen) and a battery that lasts for up to 135 minutes.

Despite its security flaws, OpenClaw's popularity as an open-source AI assistant has catapulted it to proper viral status (at least, within the AI community). While many users were running to pick up Mac Minis to run the assistant, the Apple computer isn't exactly at its cheapest right now.
Don't get us wrong — you can catch the Mac Mini on sale from time to time. But as of April 13, the $599 regular M4 version is unavailable at Amazon, and the more expensive M4 Pro model will run you $1,419.99 — not exactly the most cost effective solution.
Our advice? Check out other mini PCs on the market. At the time of writing, the Beelink SER5 MAX 7735HS mini PC with AMD Ryzen 7, 24GB RAM, and 1TB SSD is on sale for $539 with an on-page coupon, knocking $120 off its usual $659. Even when the M4 Mac mini is available, it can be harder to find it below $549, making this an especially competitive price for the Beelink PC.
Just a note: its important to be aware of the security risks that come with using this open source AI tool. And if you're already using OpenClaw, be sure to update to the latest version immediately.
SAVE 30%: As of April 13, you can get the DJI Mini 4K for $209, down from $299, at Amazon. That's a 30% discount or $90 savings.

My dad and my cousin are obsessed with drones, so I've spent enough time watching them fly to know two things: the really good ones are usually very expensive, and they're easy to crash if you don't know what you're doing (and sometimes, even if you do!).
If you've been wanting to get into the hobby without the steep learning curve (or the high price tag), this DJI model is a great place to start. Right now, the DJI Mini 4K is listed at $299, but if you clip the on-page coupon, it drops to $209.
Despite its tiny size, this drone has the practical features you need to get in the air quickly. It has a 4K Ultra HD camera paired with a 3-axis gimbal to keep your footage smooth and cinematic. Because it weighs under 249 grams, you don't have to worry about FAA registration or Remote ID for recreational use. It also has a maximum flight time of 31 minutes, Level 5 wind resistance (stable in winds up to 38kph), and a 10km video transmission range.
If you're worried about flying it into a tree or the ocean, it features one-tap takeoff and landing, stable hovering, and a GPS Return to Home (RTH) function, so you don't have to panic if you lose it. It even comes with intelligent QuickShots modes that automatically fly the drone in cinematic patterns to get you professional-looking shots with just a few taps (which could be good if you're a real estate agent or photographer!).
SAVE $404.03: The Bluetti Elite 100 V2 is on sale at Amazon for $394.97, down from the list price of $799. That's a 51% discount.

Memorial Day weekend will be here in just over a month. After that, we'll officially be in summer camping season. If you've been hearing about portable power stations and how useful they can be at the campground but don't own one yet, consider this sale your sign.
As of April 13, the Bluetti Elite 100 V2 is on sale at Amazon for $394.97, marked down from the normal price of $799. That's a 51% discount that takes $404.03 off the price.
Packing in 1,024Wh, the Bluetti Elite 100 V2 is well worth bringing along on your next weekend away. It'll be able to recharge phones, laptops, drone batteries, camping lights, and keep the coffee pot running each morning.
Bluetti equipped this model with four standard AC ports, two USB-A ports, and two USB-C ports. Plus, it only weighs about 25 pounds so it'll be portable enough to carry around the campsite. It's also a relatively quiet model, operating at about 30 decibels, which will be nice if you're using it to power up a CPAP machine at night.
With 45 minutes of standard wall AC recharging, the Bluetti Elite 100 V2 will go from 0 to 80% charge in about 45 minutes. A full charge should take around 70 minutes. You can also connect the Elite 100 V2 to up to 1,000W of solar power for recharging. With that input, expect to get a full recharge in about 70 minutes.
Before you head off on the next camping adventure, upgrade you setup with the Bluetti Elite 100 V2. It's down to an incredibly affordable price of under $395. That's nearly as good as it gets for a power station in the 1K Wh range.
