If you're a Google Photos user, you probably know the app likes to highlight some of your best shots using AI, either by adding special effects to them or grouping them. Back in September, Google's popular service received the ability to automatically curate memories for you and added an option to print photos in a new Canvas offering. The company is now testing out a new service that can automatically print and mail the best photos you've taken every month.

If you're eyeing a Galaxy Note10 but don't want to spend a fortune on one, you might want to consider a Note9. Even though it's not the company's latest model, it's still a great device that offers amazing performance and shoots great photos. The 512GB model traditionally sells for a whopping $1,250, but you can snatch it for just $685 on Amazon thanks to this deal.

Whether you're looking to buy a Christmas gift or just want to make your home a little more intelligent, a smart display is worth considering. With this deal, you won't have to choose between these options, as you can get two Nest Hubs for only $100, which is significantly cheaper than purchasing them separately.

If you didn't jump on the opportunity to get a Galaxy S10+ for $300 off a couple of days ago, here's another — and more interesting — opportunity: Thanks to this deal, you can snatch the unlocked 512GB version for $860, which is $390 off the regular retail price. It's a better offer than the previous markdown, as the 512GB model was selling for $950 last week.

As we're getting closer to the official announcement of the Samsung Galaxy S20 lineup, more details are continuing to leak regarding the upcoming handset. After seeing renders of the phone's official covers, new information reveals early buyers should get a free pair of Galaxy Buds+ when pre-ordering the phone.

Arlo Cameras are amongst the most popular ones on the market, mainly thanks to the advanced features they offer. Unfortunately, some improvements released over time require you to buy new cameras, as the new upgrades require new hardware. A good example is the Arlo Pro 3, which featured a higher resolution than its predecessor, but wasn't compatible with the Pro 2's base station. This meant you needed to buy a whole new kit if you wanted to enjoy the new camera's features. Thankfully, Arlo CEO Matthew McRae announced the company is fixing this issue as it's bringing backward compatibility to its base stations.

Wear OS smartwatches may not be as popular as they used to, but they still offer enough features to please most people, especially when you can get them at a discount. The Skagen Falster 2 is a great option to consider, especially when it's down to just $69. It looks like a traditional watch but comes with all of Wear OS' features to assist you through your day. When it came out, the timepiece cost about $275, but it's now dropped to just $69. At this price, I wouldn't even look for an alternative if you're fine with using Wear OS.

Samsung is due to unveil its newest flagships in just a couple of weeks during its Unpack event; and even though we already know quite a bit about the upcoming S20 lineup, we didn't have a lot of details regarding its accessories. Thankfully, new leaks reveal more information about the phone's official cases.

It's never too late to shed that winter belly, and what better way to start doing it than with a little extra help? Garmin has you covered, with its Vivofit 4 fitness tracker. You can grab one for $20 off at just $60 on Amazon to start working on your beach bod.

Smart devices are becoming increasingly popular in the kitchen, mainly because our hands tend to be dirty, and it's particularly convenient to control devices with your voice while doing other tasks. As one of the leaders in smart home infrastructures, Amazon wanted to be a bigger part of your connected kitchen by announcing its Alexa-enabled smart oven back in September. If you've been eyeing one, you'll be happy to know the appliance is now in stock on the retailer's site for $250.As a reminder, the product is a 4-in-1 convection oven, microwave, air fryer, and food warmer. It features more than 30 built-in presets, a temperature probe, and a 'scan-to-cook' feature that can configure heating options for food purchased from Amazon. In addition, it's compatible with Alexa, and the latter can notify you when the oven is preheated or when your food is done, which is particularly handy if you're in another room.As the smart oven doesn't come with a microphone and speaker, you'll have to pair it with an existing Echo device for it to work with Alexa. Thankfully, it comes with a free Echo Dot if you don't already have one. Surprisingly, you can also buy the oven without the Echo Dot, but you'll end up paying the same price, so you might as well get the speaker.Buy: Amazon

It's no secret that Samsung is working on a second foldable which is expected to feature a clamshell hinge, just like the new Motorola Razr.

Whether you travel a lot or simply want to avoid multiplying the number of wall chargers, getting one with several outlets can be a good idea. If you're looking for a reliable one with USB-C compatibility, you're in luck, as Aukey's 36W USB-C PD wall charger is down to $19 with this deal.

Connected devices are amazingly convenient, but they're also relatively costly. Thankfully, you don't necessarily have to replace your existing appliances to make them smarter, as connected plugs let you add the same level of convenience for a much more acceptable price. Anker is known for building reliable products, and its Eufy smart plug delivers that promise in a compact product. It usually sells for $23, which is relatively pricey, but you can get it for just $14 thanks to this deal.

Spark, the popular email client, made its way to Android back in April. Since then, it received further improvements with the addition of a dark mode in November. Now, the company behind the app, Readdle, is introducing customizable notifications per account, to help you differentiate between emails that require your immediate attention and those that can wait.

In a recent move to reduce unnecessary notifications, the Play Store no longer confirms when apps are updated in the background. While this may not be a big deal for most users, it's understandable some people want to be notified when their apps have been successfully updated. Thankfully, AppNotifier solves this problem, as it can send similar notifications to what the Play Store used to do when apps are updated.

Running out of power when you're on the go can be a real pain, but this RAVPower external battery has got you covered: It can charge a variety of devices thanks to its three ports and high capacity. It usually sells for $60, but you can now get it for $10 off on Amazon.

They usually sell for $50, but they're currently down to just $30, making them one the cheapest options around.

If you're looking for an affordable Android device that packs all the essentials, the Nokia 2.3 could have been a good option. Unfortunately, it wasn't officially available in the US until now, but HMD just announced the phone's upcoming release in North America.

Although the Galaxy S20 lineup is just around the corner, the S10+ remains a performant and attractive device.

The three versions are on sale, namely the 128GB model for $700, 512GB for $950, and 1TB for $1300.
