Apple wants to put its smartphones to the test, with the company set to broadcast a Major League Soccer (MLS) match live and shot only on the iPhone 17 Pro.
Announced Thursday, Apple TV will team up with MLS to air the LA Galaxy vs. Houston Dynamo FC match on Saturday, May 23, live from Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California.
Who's the creator you tell everyone to follow? Vote for them in Mashable's Fan Fav.
The broadcast will be the first time iPhones have been the sole cameras used to film a major live pro sports broadcast. Apple used iPhone 17s for select moments of a live broadcast of the Boston Red Sox and the Detroit Tigers in September 2025, and has been regularly using iPhones to support Friday Night Baseball and MLS broadcasts since.
Only iPhone 17s with their three 48-megapixel Fusion cameras will be used to film Saturday's match. In Mashable's review of the iPhone 17 Pro Max, Stan Schroeder praised them as "the best I’ve ever tried" on a smartphone, with particular praise for that 8x optical-quality zoom. According to Apple, the iPhones will be set up throughout the venue to "capture live footage throughout the match, including team warmups on the pitch, player introductions, in-net goal angles, and the atmosphere inside the stadium."
Apple's partnership with the MLS is the company's latest move to top streaming competitors, seizing a piece of the live sports space.
The LA Galaxy vs. Houston Dynamo FC match will be streaming on Apple TV at 7:30 p.m. PT on May 23.
Featured Video For You How F1 became a global obsessionWelcome to your guide to Pips, the latest game in the New York Times catalogue.
Released in August 2025, Pips puts a unique spin on dominoes, creating a fun single-player experience that could become your next daily gaming habit.
Currently, if you're stuck, the game only offers to reveal the entire puzzle, forcing you to move on to the next difficulty level and start over. However, we have you covered! Below are piecemeal answers that will serve as hints so that you can find your way through each difficulty level.
How to play PipsIf you've ever played dominoes, you'll have a passing familiarity with how Pips is played. As we've shared in our previous hints stories for Pips, the tiles, like dominoes, are placed vertically or horizontally and connect with each other. The main difference between a traditional game of dominoes and Pips is the color-coded conditions you have to address. The touching tiles don't necessarily have to match.
SEE ALSO: Wordle today: Answer, hints for May 22, 2026The conditions you have to meet are specific to the color-coded spaces. For example, if it provides a single number, every side of a tile in that space must add up to the number provided. It is possible — and common — for only half a tile to be within a color-coded space.
Here are common examples you'll run into across the difficulty levels:
Number: All the pips in this space must add up to the number.
Equal: Every domino half in this space must be the same number of pips.
Not Equal: Every domino half in this space must have a completely different number of pips.
Less than: Every domino half in this space must add up to less than the number.
Greater than: Every domino half in this space must add up to more than the number.
If an area does not have any color coding, it means there are no conditions on the portions of dominoes within those spaces.

After 11 years, The Late Show ended on a musical note.
In the footage above, Stephen Colbert comes out of the other side of a giant late night-destroying wormhole to join in on a performance of "Jump Up" with Louis Cato, Jon Batiste and Elvis Costello, before Paul McCartney joins them for a rendition of The Beatles' "Hello, Goodbye".
As the song ends Colbert's family and the entire show staff come up to the stage, before we cut to Colbert in a corridor with McCartney, getting ready to pull a giant "Late Show" lever.
The lights go off in the building, the entire Ed Sullivan Theater is shrunk down to a tiny snow globe, and Colbert's dog Benny makes a final cameo as he gives it a sniff.
"Come on Benny, let's go," says Colbert off camera. Then we fade to black.
If you haven't watched Colbert's final Late Show monologue yet, you can catch up on Mashable.

Today's Connections: Sports Edition will require hockey knowledge.
As we've shared in previous hints stories, this is a version of the popular New York Times word game that seeks to test the knowledge of sports fans.
Like the original Connections, the game is all about finding the "common threads between words." And just like Wordle, Connections resets after midnight and each new set of words gets trickier and trickier — so we've served up some hints and tips to get you over the hurdle.

These sets could comprise anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.
If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake — players get up to four mistakes before the game ends.

Is this the death of late night television?
In one of the final Late Show skits above it certainly seems that way, with Stephen Colbert seeking help from Jon Stewart, John Oliver, Seth Meyers, Jimmy Kimmel, and Jimmy Fallon after he's confronted with a gigantic wormhole that threatens to destroy late night TV.
"Why aren't you guys being pulled in too?" asked Colbert.
"You know what, actually one of these holes opened at my show last year, but it went away after about three days," says Kimmel.
"Is that what's going to happen to me too?" asks a hopeful Colbert, but the only response from the others is a group "Shhh" a handful of fingers placed on host's lips.

The 2026 American Music Awards (AMAs) — aka the world's largest music awards show voted by fans — returns on Memorial Day. Live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, the awards will honor the most popular songs and artists of the past year. That includes Sabrina Carpenter, Bad Bunny, Olivia Dean, Kendrick Lamar, Alex Warren, SOMBR, RAYE, and of course, Taylor Swift.
It's sure to be a talent-filled evening, packaged with grand performances and tributes. Plus, of course, some major winners and upsets. Here's everything you need to know to watch the AMAs live at home.
When are the American Music Awards?The 52nd AMAs will take place on Monday, May 25 (Memorial Day), at 8 p.m. ET (5 p.m. PT). Queen Latifah will host the awards live from Las Vegas.
What channel are the AMAs on?For the second year in a row, the AMAs will air live on CBS for those with cable. And because we're in the age of streaming, CBS's streaming sibling Paramount+ will also simulcast the awards show via its Paramount+ Premium tier only. The Paramount+ Essential plan will only get you access to the on-demand broadcast the day after the awards air.
How to watch the American Music Awards live without cableFor those who no longer have cable or access to their local CBS network, you'll have a few different options for tuning in live and for free.
The easiest way to watch is through a Paramount+ Premium subscription. The streamer itself no longer offers a free trial, but if you sign up through Prime Video, you'll get seven days of free streaming.
You can also opt for a live TV streaming service that broadcasts your local CBS station, which will allow you to watch for free with a trial if you're a new subscriber. Scroll for a breakdown of the best ways to watch the American Music Awards live and for free.
Watch for free: Paramount+ Premium free trialAs noted above, Paramount+ no longer offers a seven-day trial for new subscribers. But if you have an Amazon Prime account, you can still score a free week of streaming with the Paramount+ Premium add-on. That'll allow you to easily tune in to the AMAs for free.
If you can't score a free trial, the only other way to save some money on a Paramount+ Premium subscription is by opting for the annual plan over the monthly plan. Usually $13.99 per month, the price drops down to just $11.67 per month if you pay for a year up front. That's about 17% in savings.
Opens in a new window Credit: Paramount+ Paramount+ Premium (Prime Video add-on) free 7-day trial, then $13.99/month Get Deal Opens in a new window Credit: Paramount+ Paramount+ Premium annual subscription $139.99/year (save $27.89) Get Deal Watch for free: YouTube TV free trialWhile it's a lot more expensive than Paramount+, YouTube TV will also give you live access to local channels, including CBS, so you can tune in to the AMAs as they're happening.

You probably expect great deals on mattresses and outdoor gear for Memorial Day, but it also happens to be a great time to upgrade your TV. Many of the new releases from CES 2026 are officially on shelves now, and some of those are actually already on sale.
If you prefer an even more budget-friendly option, there's also a ton of last-generation models getting the deal treatment to make way for the newer models. Regardless of your preference, you can definitely score a discount on TVs from top brands like Hisense, Samsung, and LG in all shapes and sizes.
I'm tracking all of the best Memorial Day TV deals leading up to the holiday weekend, so check back if there's a specific model you're hoping to bring home for cheaper than usual.
Best Memorial Day TV deal Opens in a new window Credit: Hisense Hisense 75-inch U6 Pro Mini-LED ULED 4K TV $849.99 at AmazonThe U6 Pro is one of Hisense's new mid-range models for 2026 and it's a perfect mashup of performance and value. It packs Mini-LED backlighting, quantum-dot color, AI-driven processing, a peak brightness of 1,200 nits, a 144Hz refresh rate, and 2.1-channel Dolby Atmos audio. Hisense markets it as an easy way to "step into a premium experience without moving into higher-priced tiers." And that's especially true now that the 75-inch model has received its second price drop since its launch earlier this month.
Best Memorial Day Art TV deal Opens in a new window Credit: Hisense Hisense 65-inch S7 Canvas QLED 4K TV $1,099.99 at AmazonHisense also launched a new version of the extremely popular CanvasTV for 2026, which features a Hi-QLED display with an AI RGB ambient light sensor. Not only is the display upgraded with deeper color accuracy and richer hues, but it can also adjust brightness and color temperature based on the lighting in the room. A new motion detection feature will also wake your display when you enter the room and fade when you walk away in order to save some energy. It still packs the same 144Hz refresh rate, Hi-Matte design, teak frame, and free digital art library to turn your TV into fancy artwork. Amazon and Best Buy both have the 65-inch model for $900 off this Memorial Day.

Replacing a busted laptop or losing your favorite earbuds is painful enough without having to pay full retail price to replace them. Memorial Day is historically a great weekend to score discounts on big-ticket electronics (and mattresses!), but finding a real deal among all the manufactured holiday markdowns can be confusing, and a little insulting. (Looking at you, inflated list prices!)
SEE ALSO: The best deals this week, according to Mashable's team of shopping expertsTo help you find the biggest discounts, I sifted through the sales to round up the best tech deals happening this weekend. I prioritized Mashable's favorite tech — so you get genuinely good, vetted gear, not just whatever inventory retailers are trying to clear out of their warehouses.
Best Memorial Day headphone deal Opens in a new window Credit: Nothing Nothing Headphone (a) $169 at AmazonRead our full review of the Nothing Headphone (a).
Mashable's Lead Shopping Reporter is fresh off reviewing Nothing's new mid-range headphones, which she rated a 4.3/5. She thinks they're better than the flagship Nothing Headphone (1) because they offer the same app experience, comparable noise cancellation, and a comfier fit at a lower price. Moreover, they last for up to 135 hours on a single charge (!) without ANC, and their retro design is fun. Amazon has them on sale for a record-low price ahead of Memorial Day, saving you 15%.

This isn't the lowest price we've seen it hit, but it's close: It was $949 on April 6.

If you go by the calendar, the official start of summer in June 21. But we won't hear anything of the sort. We prefer to celebrate the unofficial start, the long Memorial Day weekend, which is coming up in just a few days. And as the season turns to outdoor activities and adventures, now's the time to think about upgrading any relevant tech and devices — the kind of things to get the fun going all summer long.
If you've yet to get the buzz around portable power stations, this is the moment to do it. Camping season is very nearly here, so it's worth snagging a powerful model to stay fully charged. It'll keep phones powered, along with portable speakers, earbuds, and anything else you might need on that camping trip. You can also use the electric air pump for the inflatables before hitting the beach or pool.
The great news is that Memorial Day not only marks the unofficial start of summer, it also means a whole bunch of deals and discounts as retailers jump aboard the festivities with a Memorial Day sale. And the prices are dropping already at Amazon, with plenty of early deals now available.
Best overall deal Opens in a new window Credit: Anker Solix Anker Solix C1000 $449.99 at AmazonRead Mashable's full review of the Anker Solix C1000 here.
For weekends at the campground, it's impossible to go wrong with the Anker Solix C1000. It has 1,056Wh of capacity for keeping your phones charged up and for plugging in the string lights. If you're feeling like more of a glamping experience, pack along the coffee maker and air fryer for comforts from home and easy camping meals. Unlike plenty of models, the Anker Solix C1000 has a built-in LED light which is excellent for both visibility for getting your devices plugged into the ports but also for illuminating the campsite.
Best waterproof portable power station deal Opens in a new window Credit: Jackery Jackery Explorer 1500 Ultra $899.10 at AmazonIf your summer camping trips might involve wet weather, head out with the waterproof Jackery Explorer 1500 Ultra. Rare for portable power stations, it comes with an IP65 waterproof and dust-proof rating. That means it'll hold up to light splashes or sitting near a pile of sawdust in the work shed.
Best portable power station deal for creators Opens in a new window Credit: DJI DJI Power 1000 V2 $386.10 at AmazonRead Mashable's full review of the DJI Power 1000 V2 here.
We're all familiar with DJI cameras, drones, and mics, but the brand has been building its lineup of portable power stations in the recent years. The DJI Power 1000 V2 comes with great features for creators, especially those who use DJI drones. The quick-charging SDC ports means super quick recharging of drone batteries.
Even if you're not a creator, the sale price of $386.10 is excellent for a portable power station that offers 1,024Wh of capacity. It also focuses on quiet operation which is great if you'll be using this at home during an outage in a bedroom at night.

Memorial Day is one of the best times of the year to buy a new mattress — that's just a fact of life. Discounts during this extended holiday weekend, which marks the unofficial start of summer, typically drop prices by $400 (or more in some cases), and brands love to throw in free add-ons — things such as pillows, sheets, and bedding bundles. It's gentle on your bank balance — not to mention your back, neck, and sense of relaxation.
SEE ALSO: Saatva is already taking $650 off luxury mattresses for Memorial DayIt's true that sleep is no place to place to cheap out. I recently upgraded to the Saatva Rx, which has been one the best decisions I've made all year. But while investing in a good bed is important, there's no reason to pay full price when with all these great a holiday discounts currently available. So, if your current mattress is sagging, overly springy, or you're just tired of waking up stiff as a board, now's the time to scope out the mattress deals and take advantage.
Best Memorial Day mattress deal Opens in a new window Credit: DreamCloud DreamCloud Classic Hybrid (Queen) $649 at DreamCloudThe best deal you can get right now is on a DreamCloud. The brand's top-rated hybrid Queen mattress — which features six layers, a CloudQuilt quilted cover, cooling fiber technology, and 1 inch of "pressure-relieving" memory foam — is on sale for just $649 (!!) right now. Or, if you need a base and all, the company's basically giving away bundles. You can score a bundle that includes the mattress, an adjustable bed frame, and a full sheet set (pillows and all) for under $2K.

I'm only 32, but because I live with endometriosis and interstitial cystitis, I experience back pain on the reg. Like, chronic, can't sleep, going to rip my hair out, back pain.

The Avocado Green Mattress is the "most certified organic mattress" and has a 4.5 average star rating with around 19,439 reviews. It's formaldehyde-free (you'd be surprised how many products contain this nasty stuff!), OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified, and is available in five comfort levels. Of course, the price will vary depending on the size you get, but a Queen with a "medium" top will cost you $2,039 with the discount.

The long Memorial Day weekend is almost upon us. And like every other major calendar event, Amazon has jumped on the celebrations with a sale.

To keep the deals seasonal, Amazon's Memorial Day sale has seen prices drop on summer-themed items, including portable power stations, a TV worthy of every MLB and World Cup game, and stacks of camping gear. There are also excellent deals for home upgrades, from the kitchen to the backyard — everything you need to get the summer party going.

Read Mashable's full review of the Anker Solix C1000 portable power station here.
I've tested dozens of portable power stations, and the Anker Solix C1000 remains one of the best models for taking along to the campground. Sure, Anker has already launched the Solix C1000 Gen 2 but the original C1000 comes with some features that are excellent for camping. For one, the built-in LED lightbar is fantastic for using around the campsite, which is missing from the new Gen 2.
The Solix C1000 has six AC ports, an impressive amount for a power station with 1,056Wh capacity. There's also the dual USB-A and USB-C ports for plenty of options while camping.

Read our full review of the Bose QuietComfort earbuds here.
Summer calls for endless playlists and great earbuds. The playlists are up to you, but we recommend the budget-friendly Bose QuietComfort Earbuds for jamming out. When it comes to the entire lineup of Bose headphones and earbuds, Mashable feels the QuietComfort earbuds have amazing sound quality, especially given their lower price point compared to other Bose earbuds. The noise cancellation is solid and the fit is both secure and comfortable.
Ahead of Memorial Day, Amazon has all colorway options on sale for $149, down from the list price of $179. Since this is the lowest price we've seen at Amazon all year, now's a great time to make the upgrade.

Unless you espeically love vacuuming or mopping, there's not a whole lot of reason to do it manually anymore. We have great robot vacuums that can also take care of mopping and the budget-friendly Eufy C28 combo is already on sale ahead of Memorial Day. Mashable's robot vacuum expert Leah Stodart tested the new Eufy C28 and said, "When it comes to big spills and dried stains, the Eufy C28 is easily the most efficient robot mop in the $600 to $800 price range I've ever tested." Its compact size could also be a benefit for smaller homes or apartments.

There are already deals live at Amazon, where you'll find savings of up to 40%. There are also plenty of savings from other online shopping destinations, with deals on products such as mattresses, TVs, furniture, and outdoor patio items. Plenty of brands are getting in on early MDW action — you can grab the Dyson Airwrap i.d. for $150 off and the Bose QuietComfort headphones for $120 off.
We'll be updating all the best Memorial Day deals throughout the weekend, so be sure to keep checking back on this page for the biggest and best savings.
Best Memorial Day Amazon deals Ninja Slushi $259 at AmazonWhat says start of the summer better than slushies on demand? When Mashable's Leah Stodart reviewed the Ninja Slushi, she pointed out the merits of the Slushi over a regular blender: no ice is required, and it keeps drinks frozen while in its cooling cylinder. From cola slushies to frosé, this might just be the ultimate summer drink machine. It has some downsides (sugar-free beverages are a no-go), but if you're a frozen drink enthusiast, this deal is worth a closer look.

Best Buy and Amazon have been racing to match prices on this Fire TV. Best Buy was initially $75 cheaper than Amazon, so Amazon dropped its sale price to keep pace. But that's only a piece of the picture demonstrating just how good this deal is. Our resident TV expert, Leah Stodart, pointed out that this $264.99 price point is so good that it's less than the sale price of the 43-inch version of Amazon's most basic Ember 4K Fire TV. In other words, if you're looking to score a solid deal on a smart TV this Memorial Day, this could be the one for you.
