The Discover Samsung Summer Sale is up and running, so now’s an excellent time to take a look at the available Samsung Galaxy deals. If you’re thinking about buying a new laptop, you may want to consider the Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro, which is $300 off as part of this sale, bringing its price down from $1,350 to $1,050. The discount is scheduled to last until June 8, but we highly recommend completing your purchase as soon as possible as stocks may not last until the sale’s final minute.

Why you should buy the Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro

While Samsung is better known for its smartphones and TVs, the Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro launches a worthy challenge against the best laptops with the performance provided by its Intel Core Ultra 7 Series 2 processor, Intel Arc Graphics, and 16GB of RAM. With these specifications, it will be more than enough for your daily workload, even when you’re multitasking between several apps at a time.

The screen of the Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro is relatively small at 14 inches, but that helps keep the device portable, making it perfect if you’re planning to use it while on the go. The display more than makes up for its size with its sharpness and vivid colors though, as it’s a 3K AMOLED touchscreen. You’ll also have plenty of storage space for your files on the laptop’s 512GB SSD, and with Windows 11 Home pre-loaded, it’s ready for action right after you unbox it.

Samsung isn’t the usual source for laptop deals, but it has this amazing offer for the Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro as part of the Discover Samsung Summer Sale. Its original price of $1,350 has been slashed to $1,050 for savings of $300 on this dependable machine. You’re going to have to be quick though — the sale will run until June 8, but it won’t be a good idea to wait until the last minute before you proceed with your transaction for the Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro — stocks of the laptops may be gone by then.

Buying a laptop may soon come with an instant carbon score thanks to AI

Researchers want AI to calculate the environmental cost of your next laptop

When shopping for a new laptop, most buyers compare specifications like performance, battery life, display quality, and price. But a new AI-powered initiative could soon add another metric to that list: carbon footprint.

Researchers are developing AI agents capable of calculating and displaying the environmental impact of consumer electronics in real time, potentially giving shoppers instant access to sustainability information before making a purchase. The effort aims to bring the kind of emissions transparency already available in services like flight booking platforms to the world of consumer technology.

The US government just hit the brakes on Anthropic’s most powerful AI models

Anthropic disables Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US government directive

Anthropic’s troubles with the US government do not seem to be easing. The company has now been ordered to suspend access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all foreign nationals, including foreign national Anthropic employees working inside the United States.

Anthropic said it received the directive on June 12 and is disabling the two models for all customers to comply. Other Anthropic models are not affected. The government has not publicly explained the full national security concern, but Anthropic says it understands the order is linked to a reported method for bypassing, or jailbreaking, Fable 5’s safeguards.

Nvidia’s RTX Spark made me hate content creation a little less

Adobe's AI-powered demos showed me a future where masking, rotoscoping, and scene detection might finally stop being a chore.

NVIDIA RTX Spark for Creators Image Generation Demo Computex 2026

Every video editor has a list of tasks they'd happily outsource to someone else. Exporting isn't one of them anymore because modern laptops are already plenty fast. The real-time sinks are the boring bits: manually masking subjects, finding scene cuts in long recordings, rotoscoping frame by frame, or wrestling with tedious edits that require more patience than creativity.

That's exactly why NVIDIA's RTX Spark demo at Computex 2026 caught me by surprise. I walked into the booth expecting another presentation full of AI buzzwords and benchmark charts. Instead, I walked out thinking that for the first time in years, hardware might actually be changing the editing experience itself, rather than simply making renders finish a little sooner.
