Upgrading to the latest and greatest flagships can be really convenient, especially when you're snagging a top-of-the-line model like the Galaxy S24 Ultra with all the bells and whistles. Premium phones come with price tags to match. Finding a deal to cut some of the cost of a new phone is pretty essential, and right now Amazon is offering a 26% discount on the S24 Ultra, netting you $335 in savings and dropping the cost from $1,300 to just $965. That's the lowest price we've ever seen.

Hollywood child stardom has taken its toll on many actors through the decades. Lani O'Grady, for one, found fame in the 1970s on the TV family series, Eight is Enough. O'Grady followed in the footsteps of her brother, actor Don Grady, an original Mouseketeer and member of another popular TV family show: My Three Sons. Their mother, Mary B. Grady, was a talent agent who represented several child actors. But Lani, who would also eventually become an agent, died in 2001 just one week before what would have been her 47th birthday.

Midrange phones are more competitive than ever, and their performance and battery life make us wonder why we spend $1,000+ on flagship devices. Phones under $500 used to include drab displays, awful build quality, and hardly any software support. But recently, even budget devices have featured OLED displays and years of software support. With so many high-quality options close in price, even a small discount can make a big difference.

The iPad Air is a great device with a thin and lightweight design, powerful capabilities, a long-lasting battery, and support for games, video, and work. However, one shortfall of the Air is that, unlike the iPad Pro, it uses an LCD panel and a screen with a 60Hz refresh rate, which makes it feel sluggish and outdated compared to Apple’s top-tier devices.
