If you prefer Android over iOS, Mashable's freelance tech reviewer, Adam Doud, says the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 is "worth the upgrade" — and right now, you can grab it on sale.

As of April 6, you can snag the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 for $289.99 at Amazon, down from $349.99. That's a 17% discount or $60 savings.

When it comes to health metrics, the Galaxy Watch 8 can "track just about everything you do." It features a running coach, heart rate tracking, and an Advanced Sleep Coach that assigns you a "sleep animal" based on how you snooze (which is kind of fun, IMO). Plus, it's the very first smartwatch to run Google Gemini AI right on the watch face, and it features a unique "squircle" design (a round face on a rounded-square base) that sits thinner and flatter on your wrist.

"In theory, if you follow the advice of the watch without outright dismissing it, it can help you live a better life," writes Doud. "And you'll look good doing it."

It's moon flyby day, folks.

The Artemis II astronauts are expected to make history today as they reach distances no humans have ever traveled before on their journey around the moon.

The four-person crew — Christina Koch, Victor Glover, Reid Wiseman, and Jeremy Hansen — aboard the Orion spacecraft is scheduled to pass the distance record of 248,655 miles from Earth, set in 1970 by the Apollo 13, and continue on to 252,760 miles. In doing so, they'll be the first humans to see some parts of the far side of the moon in real time.

They won't be landing, but they will be gathering vital insights and data that will help NASA prepare for a future lunar landing in a couple of years' time. It's the most critical part of the 10-day mission, and you can tune into the historical event live.

Where to watch the Artemis II moon flyby livestream

NASA will provide live coverage of the historic lunar flyby on Monday, April 6, beginning at 1:00 p.m. ET. Fortunately, they won't gatekeep the livestream; you have plenty of options to tune in.

NASA+, the space agency's streaming service, will livestream the flyby, as well as the agency's YouTube channel and social media accounts. All of these options are completely free. Several streaming services are also hosting the NASA+ livestream on their platforms, if you prefer to watch there, including Netflix and Peacock.

While coverage starts at 1:00 p.m. ET, the flyby itself isn't expected until around 2:45 p.m. ET. NASA has outlined key lunar flyby times and milestones, but they are subject to change based on real-time operations. The crew will surpass the record for humans' farthest distance from Earth around 1:56 p.m. ET, and audio-only remarks from the astronauts will begin shortly after.

Just because Amazon's Big Spring Sale ended last week doesn't mean you missed your opportunity to snag a great headphones deal ahead of Prime Day.

Prime example (no pun intended): the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones are on sale at Amazon for $248, putting them just $5 away from their Spring Sale price (and lowest price ever) of $243. This deal also slashes $151.99 off their $399.99 price tag — and makes them a whopping $210 cheaper than the $458 WH-1000XM6 headphones.

Of course, the XM6 headphones are priced higher because they're newer. That said, I tested the XM5 and XM6 headphones head to head, and found that unless folding ear cups are a non-negotiable for you or the XM6s had a stellar sale, the XM5s remained the better value headphones. The noise-cancellation felt about on par with the newer headphones, and while the XM6s have slightly better sound and a better design, I wouldn't say it's the difference of $210.

The Sony XM5s hold up — that's why we still consider them one of the best in Sony's lineup.
