Anyone who grew up in the '80s is in for a treat, with Amazon MGM Studios dropping the first glimpse of live-action He-Man (Nicholas Galitzine) in a teaser for Masters of the Universe.

The teaser itself gives little away — it's pretty much a 30-second promo for the actual trailer dropping tomorrow — but we do see some brief glimpses of the heroes based on Mattel's famous action fantasy franchise.

Unsure what size TV to get? We think 65 inches is the sweet spot for most people. And our top pick for a 65-incher is TCL's QM8K TV. It's a particularly worthwhile choice when it's on sale and as of Jan. 21, it's more than half off.

Typically listed at $2,499.99, you can grab the TCL 65-inch QM8K Mini LED QLED 4K TV for only $997.99 at Amazon this week. That's more than $1,500 or 60% in savings based on its full list price (Amazon's current list price is deflated). That's also only $98 away from its best-ever price from Black Friday. Best Buy also has a great deal on the TV if you prefer to shop there — it's just $2 more than Amazon.

The internet practically unanimously agrees that the TCL QM8K is the best QLED TV for most folks, thanks to its highly impressive brightness and stellar picture quality, contrast, and shadow detail. "While this intensity of brightness makes the QM8K a solid choice for watching TV in daylight, its more-precise-than-usual backlights keep details crisp in a dark room. The new anti-halo effect is an effective fix for some of the blooming its predecessor experienced," Mashable's Leah Stodart notes.

It's also equipped with a 2.2-channel Bang & Olufsen-designed speaker array with Dolby Atmos spatial audio, a 144Hz native refresh rate with VRR and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, a low 12.9ms input lag, ATSC 3.0, Wi-Fi 6, and plenty of ports for all of your peripherals.

If you're looking to upgrade your TV this season, you certainly won't be disappointed with this pick — and your wallet will be pleased with the price. And BTW: If you're not sure what to do with your old TV, you can recycle it at most Best Buy stores for free.

SAVE UP TO 14%: Select configurations of the Apple MacBook Air (M4) are on sale on Amazon for $200 off as of Jan. 21, with prices starting at $1,199 (normally $1,399). Each variant comes with at least 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage.

Amazon puts latest M4 MacBook Airs on sale for $200 off so often, Apple might as well edit their MSRPs. Indeed, data from the price-tracking site camelcamelcamel shows that every configuration was enjoying that discount since the start of the year, up until earlier this week. However, only a few upper-end variants are still holding onto it at the time of writing.

This isn't a sign to panic yet, but the ongoing RAM shortage makes one wonder if sizable discounts on the cheapest base models are going to be rarities going forward. (They're currently just $100 off; Mashable's deals team will be watching them closely.) Regardless, it's never a bad idea to splurge on some extra memory and storage for future-proofing's sake if your budget allows.

As of Jan. 21, Amazon's $200 discount is still live for the following sizes, colors, and configurations:

• 13-inch M4 MacBook Air (24GB RAM, 512GB SSD) in midnight and silver — $1,199 $1,399 (save $200)

• 15-inch M4 MacBook Air (16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) in silver — $1,199 $1,399 (save $200)

• 15-inch M4 MacBook Air (24GB RAM, 512GB SSD) in midnight and silver — $1,399 $1,599 (save $200)

Amazon's deals weren't matched anywhere else the last time I checked — including Best Buy, which usually gives the retail giant some competition. All of the aforementioned configurations were still full price there.

I'd steer most people towards the 15-inch model, which has two extra speakers and a GPU with two extra cores (read: it's a little bit better at handling heavier workloads). However, students and those who prioritize portability will be served well by the 13-inch version. Check out my complete guide to the best MacBooks for 2026 buyers if you need more intel.

The "Mini" lives up to its name: It's compact enough to fit in a backpack, yet delivers max speeds over 100 Mbps and features an integrated WiFi 5 router, so you don't need to haul extra gear to get a signal. Plus, it's designed to be plug-and-play. Just set it up with a clear view of the sky, plug it in, and you’re online in minutes.

No one loves a power outage. The idea of cozy blankets, no WiFi, no phones, and sitting down with a Lego set or a puzzle seems magical at first, but the joy can wear off quickly. Once you realize the refrigerator is no longer running, things get less magical. Instead of dealing with the inconvenience of no power, a portable power station offers a great solution. There's a solid model on sale today at Amazon that even comes with solar panels to help with recharging.

As of Jan. 21, the Jackery HomePower 3000 with two 200W solar panels is on sale at Amazon for $1,598.99, marked down from the normal price of $2,999. In total, that works out a savings of $1,400.01 from a massive 47% discount.

Like the name suggests, the Jackery HomePower 3000 comes packed with 3,072Wh of battery capacity. In simpler terms, that means you can keep the refrigerator cooling for one or two days, the WiFi router on for 66 hours, or a light on for up to 10 days. All of those will be useful during a power outage. Of course, you'll also be able to recharge your phone, Kindle, or your Nintendo Switch 2 to stay entertained.

Once we get back into camping season, the Jackery HomePower 3000 should get an invite to the campground. You'll be able to pack along the air fryer, lights, projector, and speakers thanks to the portable power of the Jackery.

Since today's deal includes two 200W SolarSaga solar panels, you'll be in great shape for recharging the HomePower 3000. With the 400W combined solar input, Jackery says this model will get back to 100% charged after 11 hours. An 80% charge is possible with nine hours of solar charging.

Useful in all season, upgrade to the Jackery HomePower 3000 this year while it's on sale for a major 47% off. You'll be endlessly thankful during the next power outage when you have a fully charged phone and working refrigerator.

At a massive 49 inches, the Odyssey G9 is built to dominate your desk; a 32:9 curved display of that size is essentially the equivalent of two 27-inch monitors fused together, minus the annoying bezel gap. With a Dual QHD resolution (5120 x 1440) and an aggressive 1,000R curve, it fills your peripheral vision and pulls you straight into the action, whether you’re racing in Forza Horizon 5, flying in Microsoft Flight Simulator, or exploring open worlds like The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.

Performance doesn’t take a back seat, either. You’re getting a 144Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, helping fast-paced games like Battlefield 6 stay smooth and tear-free. Add VESA DisplayHDR 600, and darker scenes gain extra contrast without washing out highlights — a noticeable upgrade for cinematic titles and late-night gaming sessions.

Beyond gaming, this monitor shines as a productivity powerhouse for work, too. Picture-by-Picture and Picture-in-Picture modes make multitasking easy, while the ergonomic stand lets you fine-tune height and tilt for marathon sessions.

If you’re shopping around across different brands, LG’s 32-inch UltraGear QHD monitor is still $100 off. As for more from Samsung, the OLED version of the G9 monitor is also on sale at almost $400 off.

Elon Musk and Ryanair have been experiencing turbulence of late, but what exactly has occurred?

The billionaire Tesla and SpaceX CEO has been swapping barbs with Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary, with petty insults thrown around by two grown-ass men on public platforms. And it's all about internet on short-haul flights. Here's what's been happening.

SEE ALSO: X reportedly still allows Grok-created, sexualized images despite new ban

Back on Jan. 14, Ryanair ruled out the possibility of installing Musk's Starlink internet tech on its planes, like competitors British Airways and Lufthansa. O'Leary told Reuters, "You need to put antenna on fuselage, it comes with a two percent fuel penalty because of the weight and drag. We don't think our passengers are willing to pay for WiFi for an average one-hour flight."

The following day, Musk sprang into action on his social platform X, claiming O'Leary was "misinformed" and writing, "I doubt they can even measure the difference in fuel use accurately, especially for a one hour flight, where the incremental drag is basically zero during the ascent phase due to high angle of attack," and pairing it all with an AI Grok explainer.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Since then, it's been on — and in increasingly lower levels of mature.

When X suffered a major outage on Jan. 16, Ryanair took a jab at Musk on the platform, asking, "perhaps you need Wi-Fi @elonmusk?" Musk fired back, tweeting, "Should I buy Ryan Air and put someone whose actual name is Ryan in charge?"

Featured Video For You Motorola is entering the wearable AI game

Then, in a radio interview on Ireland's Newstalk, O'Leary was asked about Ryanair's stance on Starlink. The airline CEO rejected the idea again, not only describing the impact of adding antennas to aircraft — "about a 2 percent fuel drag" and a boosted fuel bill of "$200, $250 million a year...in other words, about an extra dollar for every passenger we fly" — but then targeting Musk directly.

"I frankly wouldn’t pay any attention to anything that Elon Musk puts on that cesspit of his called X," he said. "He was the guy who advocated to getting Donald Trump elected. I would pay no attention whatsoever to Elon Musk. He’s an idiot. Very wealthy, but he’s still an idiot."

Of course, Musk hit back on X, recycling the insult and calling for O'Leary to be fired — a message he's repeated on X since.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Since then, there's been a few side-eye barbs on social media — on Jan. 19, Ryanair's official X post retweeted a post responding to a question posted: "what is a propaganda you're not falling for?" The airline's response: ""Wi-Fi on planes."

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Now, Musk appears to be moving into his favoured tactic of controlling the narrative by buying it. Musk responded to the above post asking, "How much would it cost to buy you?" before later calling for O'Leary's firing while using the r-word slur. Then, on Jan. 19, Musk posted a poll to X, asking whether he should "Buy Ryan Air and restore Ryan as their rightful ruler."

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

On Tuesday, Ryanair moved things into even more immature territory than Musk (hard to do), with a post on X announcing that O’Leary has called a press conference on Wednesday at 10 a.m. in Dublin, suggesting the airline is "launching a Great Idiots seat sale especially for Elon and any other idiots on 'X'." And yes, O'Leary did hold the conference, with Ryanair actually launching that sale.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

O'Leary thanked Musk "for the wonderful boost in publicity, which has seen our bookings rise significantly," and repeated Musk's r-word slur about himself (not great) during his address.

"The Starlink people believe that 90 percent of our passengers would happily pay for Wi Fi access," he said. "Our experience, sadly, tells us we think less than 10 percent of our passengers would pay for this access, and therefore we can't afford to shoulder costs of between 150 or 250 million a year. If Starlink wants to fit our aircraft and pay for the fuel drive, we'd happily put them on board. But the only way we see Starlink working on board our aircraft on short haul flights is if you give it away for free."

As the BBC points out, Musk would have a hard time buying Ryanair, as airlines based in the EU must be majority owned by people from the EU, Norway, Liechtenstein, Iceland, or Switzerland.

At this point, can Ryanair get back to draining our wallets with oversized baggage fees and Musk actually address the issue of Grok continuing to created sexualized images despite being banned from doing so?

Donald Trump's anger at not being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize appears to be leading to all sorts of global issues, and the Daily Show's Josh Johnson is here to point out how ridiculous the whole situation is.

"For the last year Donald Trump has been fiending for a Nobel Peace Prize. Like a humanitarian award addict he's tried everything from whining to pretending that he ended eight wars," says Johnson in the clip above. "But the Nobel committee gave the prize to Venezuelan opposition leader, María Corina Machado, and Trump was so butthurt he said that she should give her prize to him. And because that's the stupidest possible thing that could happen, guess what happened?"

Cue a news reel showing Corina Machado presenting her prize to Trump, accompanied with a photo of the U.S. president smiling while holding the plaque.

"Wow. This is one of the saddest images I've seen in months, and I follow one of those hairless cats on Instagram," says Johnson. "You know the medal is only a symbol, right? Like just because I steal A$AP Rocky's wedding ring, doesn't make it so that I'm married to Rihanna."

Donald Trump is one year into his second presidential term, and like Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert is feeling reflective.

In the Late Show clip above the host rattles through a recap of some of the president's lowlights from the past 365 days, painting quite the bleak picture.

"A lot has happened in a short time," says Colbert. "This year alone: Trump renamed the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America, held a giant military parade on his birthday, said he wants Canada to be our 51st state, signed an executive order ending birthright citizenship, tore down the East wing of the White House to build a ballroom, covered the remaining parts of the White House in golden geegaws, forced Paramount to make Rush Hour 4, made himself the chair of the Kennedy Center board and then renamed it the Trump Kennedy Center, and personally pocketed over $1.4 billion.

"And guess what? You didn't remember most of that stuff."

When training for a specific goal, a smart fitness tracker is an essential. Aside from simply tracking your activities, it can support your training through suggested workouts, fatigue tracking, and health stats that can relay the stages of your recovery. Many of these smartwatches now also offer insights into your training load, providing a readable stat that shows just how your workouts are impacting your body.

This is a popular feature on the Apple Watch Ultra 3, Apple's most rugged smartwatch. But is this data actually useful?

What is Apple's training load feature and does it prevent overtraining?

Apple’s Training Load feature helps you see how hard your body is working over time, rather than just how tough a single workout was. It looks at the intensity and duration of your workouts over the last seven days and compares them to your previous 28 days of activity. Using this comparison, it puts your current workout load into categories from "well below" to "well above" your normal level. This gives you a sense of whether your training is sustainable.

It's a handy stat to have on hand, but it's also designed to support smarter training decisions, especially when it comes to rest. Now, the biggest indicator is always how you feel. Data can be wrong, so always listen to your body first and foremost. But the training load feature is a nice extra, and it even uses insights like how you slept to provide extra context on recovery. If your watch is telling you that you're overtraining, chances are you could do with another rest day.

The training load feature isn't specific to the Ultra 3. In fact, you can find it on watches like the Series 11, Ultra 2, and Series 10.

Other features of the Apple Watch Ultra 3

Training load is just one of many great features of the Ultra 3, and if you're serious about data and sports tracking, you'll fall in love with this watch. Training features include precision dual-frequency GPS for accurate pace and distance, heart rate zones and running power for more detailed effort analysis, pacer tools for structured sessions, and fully customizable workouts. There's also the Workout Buddy feature which gives you live guidance during sessions.

The design of the watch is impressive too, and it's seriously robust. The titanium case and sapphire crystal display are built to last, and the large, bright screen is easy to read in all conditions, even in direct sunlight. The display also doubles as a bright flashlight. It’s water resistant to 100 meters, so it handles swimming, diving, and any water sports.

This watch is also a great companion for endurance activities and off-grid, multi-day tracking. The battery life won't fail you, lasting up to 42 hours in normal use and up to 72 hours in Low Power Mode. Safety is also covered, as the watch can detect hard falls or severe car crashes and will automatically alert emergency services if needed. If you’re off the grid, it also supports satellite emergency messaging, so you can get help even without cell signal.

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck became Hollywood golden boys with Good Will Hunting before the childhood friends forged their own distinct paths in movie-making. Now they reunite for writer/director Joe Carnahan's The Rip, a Netflix action-thriller that's currently streaming.

In The Rip, Damon and Affleck play narcotics police officers whose long-time friendship is challenged when they discover $20 million in cash. Should they steal "the rip"? Their team is divided over the temptation to turn corrupt cops. And to hammer home some of the film's most dramatic moments, Carnahan blasted music between setups to give his cast, which includes Catalina Sandino Moreno and Sasha Calle, a sense of the tone he was building.

In an interview with Mashable Entertainment Editor, Kristy Puchko, Carnahan, Damon, Affleck, Moreno, and Calle spoke about this use of music on set. Then Carnahan shared how he used an unconventional audio tool for the film's final moments. To hammer home the loss Affleck and Damon's characters feel over the death of their captain, Jackie Velez (Lina Esco), Carnahan recorded audio of their children and moms yelling "Jackie!" so he could play that on set.

Affleck explained how "trigger objects" can be a tool for actors to channel an emotion, and how that came into play in shooting The Rip.

The Rip is now streaming on Netflix.
