AMAZON shoppers are rushing to grab this top-rated smartwatch that's now 80% cheaper.

Amazon is packed with hidden gems from lesser-known tech brands that often deliver great quality at bargain prices.
This particular model caught my attention, not just because of the big price drop, but because it's genuinely a good-looking piece of kit.
The Soudorv Y10 Smartwatch boasts a large screen, hundreds of sports modes, and an impressive list of features, making it a steal for under £40.
Granted, you might not recognise the brand 'Soudorv,' I didn't either, but don't let that put you off.
Its spec sheet is packed with impressive features that, although I haven't had the chance to test myself, are a steal for the price.
For starters, it comes with Bluetooth 5.4 and even features a built-in voice assistant.
That means you can make and receive calls, get notifications from WhatsApp and Instagram, and control music or tasks hands-free.
There are also handy apps available for smartwatches that can help you develop healthier habits, including one designed to help users quit smoking.
That's a genuinely useful feature for anyone looking to make positive lifestyle changes.
The battery life goes the distance too, lasting up to 20 days on a single charge, which can stretch to 60 days on standby, so you won't find yourself constantly searching for a charger.
Some smartwatch screens can be fiddly, but the 1.43-inch AMOLED display here is an ideal size for functionality, and it's fully customisable.
There are over 250 watch faces to choose from, or the option to use your own photos via the FitCloudPro app, so you can make this your own.
Most users invest in this tech for the health tracking features to stay on top of their fitness.
The Soudorv Y10 does all the basics you want in a smartwatch, including tracking steps, heart rate, blood oxygen levels, sleep, and even menstrual cycles.
The heart rate monitor, in particular, can be a lifesaver, helping you spot early warning signs of heart disease.
Add to that over 130 sports modes, and it's a fantastic companion for tracking your activities in real time.
I might not have given this a test run, but with a perfect 5-star rating from over 170 happy customers, it's clear the quality speaks for itself.
One reviewer described it as 'functional and stylish,' saying, 'It has a sleek, masculine look that feels great on the wrist.
'The build quality is solid, and the display is bright and easy to use. Battery life is decent, setup is easy, and the display is great.'
Another said, 'It looks great, feels solid, and does everything I need, calls, heart rate, sleep tracking, all spot on. The battery life is way better than I expected, too. Worth it for the price.'
A third customer praised the touchscreen, noting, 'Various functions, but the important ones are there and accurate. Easy to use as the touchscreen is very responsive, and scrolling is fast.'
For £39.99, this smartwatch feels like an absolute no-brainer.
If you're after a functional bit of tech that doesn't look bad on either, this deal is definitely worth grabbing while it's still available.
Do keep in mind, though, this is badged as a limited-time deal, so there's no telling how long it'll stick around at this price.
For those of you in the market for a new phone, I've spotted an offer you won't want to miss.
You can nab a free tech bundle worth nearly £410 when you pick up the Honor 400 Pro, including a smartwatch, wireless speaker, and earbuds.

A robot surgeon? I'll put my money on that

T hank you for waiting, the robot will see you now. Nine in ten keyhole operations won't need a human surgeon in the room within the next decade, according to the NHS. One in five operations are already carried out by robots, guided remotely, to improve outcomes while cutting costs. Science fiction is becoming surgical fact because robotic-assisted surgery can mean smaller incisions, reduced scarring and quicker recovery. There's no need to take my word for it: Sir Jim Mackey, the chief executive of the NHS, said: 'We are using every tool to ensure patients get the best possible treatment. Expanding the use of new tech, such as robotic surgery, will play a huge part.' Wes Streeting, the health and social care secretary, added: 'I know how important this is. The NHS saved my life from kidney cancer with an operation led by a world-class surgeon being helped by a robot.'

UK's military and spy services set for £330m AI tech boost to help track enemies

Hundreds of millions of pounds will be invested in cutting-edge drones and artificial intelligence for the military as part of Rachel Reeves ' attempt to revive the flagging economy. The Chancellor's new industrial strategy will include a £330 million investment in technology used by the Armed Forces, such as 'next-generation drones' to be developed for joint use on the battlefield and by the emergency services. Money will also be ploughed into ultra-powerful computers for MI5, MI6 and GCHQ as well as artificial intelligence (AI) applications to track enemy targets. The investment, part of the strategy being launched tomorrow, comes as Ms Reeves is struggling to boost the UK's flagging growth prospects, which the Confederation of British Industry last week slashed to 1.2 per cent for this year and 1 per cent for 2026. In addition, government borrowing hit a non-pandemic record for May and retail sales last week were down. Without proper growth, the Chancellor will likely have to make the unenviable choice between hiking taxes further in autumn's Budget or breaking her fiscal rules. Ms Reeves has promised that the ten-year infrastructure strategy will lead to a 'decade of national renewal'. The Government is putting £15.6 billion into transport upgrades, £39 billion into social and affordable housing and £14.2 billion for the Sizewell C nuclear power station. Money will also be ploughed into ultra-powerful computers for MI5, MI6 and GCHQ as well as artificial intelligence (AI) applications to track enemy targets. pictured: MI6 headquarters Ms Reeves told The Mail on Sunday she intended to 'pull together a plan to exploit new opportunities, whether it's AI, energy technology, a whole range of parts of the economy'. She added: 'I'm really optimistic about Britain's future. We've got great businesses, we've got great trade deals... I don't see any reason for Britain not to be leaders in these jobs and industries of the future.' But Shadow Chancellor Sir Mel Stride said: 'We have to put the public finances back on a sustainable footing. A future Conservative government will have to contend with a bloated national debt after Labour's reckless borrowing splurge. 'We will never make promises we cannot afford, and our plans will always be fully costed. Labour's "spend now, tax later" approach is utterly short-sighted. 'It mortgages Britain's future for short-term political convenience and leaves ordinary families to foot the bill.'

UK government unveils £275m investment in training and apprenticeships in Ebgland

The government will present a £275m investment in technical training and apprenticeships as the centrepiece of its long-awaited industrial strategy, in a direct challenge to Nigel Farage's growing influence in England's manufacturing heartlands. The package, announced by the business secretary, Jonathan Reynolds, on Sunday, includes funding for new technical excellence colleges, short courses in artificial intelligence (AI) and digital manufacturing, and major capital upgrades to training providers across England. It aims to tackle longstanding skills shortages in engineering, defence and high-growth sectors such as battery production and advanced manufacturing. Officials said the new strategy was designed to 'end the overreliance on foreign labour' and ensure a pipeline of domestic talent for critical industries – a move clearly aimed at countering Farage's narrative of national decline and reclaiming the industrial vote in traditional Labour strongholds. While the £275m pledge is not a full industrial funding package – and falls short of sector-wide subsidies or energy cost changes – it is being positioned by ministers as the first concrete step in a broader 10-year plan for growth. The full strategy, due to be published this week, will also include a new trade strategy focused on exports, supply chains and making the country 'the best-connected place in the world to do business'. Reynolds said the skills funding marked a shift away from decades of managed decline. 'Our modern industrial strategy will be powered by investing in British people,' he said. 'It will help transform our skills system to end the overreliance on foreign labour, and ensure British workers can secure good, well-paid jobs in the industries of tomorrow and drive growth and investment right across the country.' The announcement comes as Reform UK intensifies efforts to peel off Labour voters in post-industrial seats, with Farage promising to restore manufacturing and impose tougher immigration rules. While Labour has promised a broad 'plan for change', the industrial strategy has been delayed for months as ministers wrestled with how best to rebuild support in regions hit hardest by automation, outsourcing and underinvestment. The timing now is deliberate – a policy-heavy counteroffensive in the so-called red wall, where Reform UK has surged in recent polling. The skills package responds to a stark reality: one in seven young people are not in education or employment, and the number of apprenticeships has fallen by nearly 20% since 2016. The education secretary, Bridget Phillipson, called the strategy an 'economic and social reset'. 'Skills rightly run right through the heart of this industrial strategy because they are key to breaking the link between background and success for young people,' she said. The strategy builds on previous announcements, including a £187m package for AI training announced during London Tech Week and a £3bn apprenticeship fund to create 120,000 places in healthcare, carpentry and construction. But the scale of new funding is modest – about £275m spread over four years, including roughly £200m for infrastructure and course delivery – and Labour may face pressure from industry and unions to go further in reforming the apprenticeship levy, immigration skills charge and energy costs for heavy industry.
