The best DNA testing kit Black Friday deal

AncestryDNA Genetic Test Kit — $59, was $99

An Ancestry shipment.
Ancestry

The single person AncestryDNA Genetic Test Kit is our pick for the best Black Friday deal already available. The kit normally costs $99, but right now it’s down to just $59. That’s a nice discount of $30 on one of the best DNA tests available. We’re not sure how long this deal will last, so you should grab it soon.

Testing your DNA with Ancestry gives you two major pieces of information: your genetic makeup and your family tree. On the genetic makeup side, you get to learn what percentage of your DNA comes from various ethnic groups. The test is detailed enough to tell your about 2,600 different regions you may have a family history in. Ancestry splits this up into a pie chart report that is easy to explore and understand.

The other benefit is your family tree. If you have relatives who have used AncestryDNA, you can see where they might fit on your family tree. You can request to connect with them, and if they accept you’ll get access to some of their family tree too. It’s a fun way to connect with your family. It may even reveal a new relative you didn’t know you had.

All of this is accomplished with a simple cheek swab that you send back to Ancestry in the mail. It’s simple, fast, and cheap now thanks to this Black Friday deal.

Starfish-inspired patch solves key issues for wearable heart sensors
Heart rate sensor inspired by Starfish.

The domain of wearable devices has grown by leaps and bounds, not just in terms of mass adoption, but also owing to some astounding innovations. Wearable heart rate sensors can now measure everything from heart rate and blood oxygen levels to ECG in form factors ranging from a watch to finger rings.

These sensors, however, come with an inherent set of problems. Motion artifacts arising from movement or vigorous activity alter the blood flow and affect their accuracy. Optical heart rate sensors (photoplethysmography or PPG tech) also struggle with darker skin tones, tattoos, or even body placement.

You Asked: What’s the most impressive thing you saw at CES?
You Asked CES Editors Cut

On today’s special edition of You Asked, we tracked down each of our editors and put them on the spot to find out what they thought was the most impressive thing they saw at CES 2025 in Early January. Let’s find out what they had to say.
Panasonic Z95B

There’s been some really cool TV tech at CES, but the thing I’m most excited about is the new Panasonic Z95B. Instead of the regular OLED display structure we’ve seen in recent years with MLA technology, this uses a four-layer panel structure. It features individual red, green, and blue layers (two of the latter) for the emissive light.
