Apple Watch Ultra 3 gets a $100 price cut ahead of Prime Day
Macworld Apple Watch Ultra 3 View Deal (function () { document.querySelector("#sticky-promo-block a").addEventListener("click", function(e) { const debug = document.location.host.search(/lndo.site|go-vip.net/) !== -1; const text = this.closest("#sticky-promo-block").querySelector("p.promo-title").textContent; const data = { event: "stickyConversionUnitClick", eventCategory: "Sticky Conversion", eventAction: "Click", eventLabel: text }; if(debug)console.log("Sticky Conversion CLick - pushing to dataLayer: ", data); dataLayer.push(data); return true; }); })(); Apple’s Watch Ultra 3 is down to $700, a $99 price cut on the most rugged, feature-packed watch the company makes. This isn’t the absolute best price we’ve seen for this model, which dipped a bit lower during Black Friday, but it’s still a great discount and the best we’ve seen all year. This watch was built to survive all your adventures. With a titanium case that will resist all sorts of knocks and a sapphire crystal display that’s scratch-resistant, this pricey wrist accessory won’t suffer any damage the first time your feet slide down the path, and you hug a tree. It will also be quite the companion when you’re swimming, as it comes with water resistance down to 100 meters, running, or anything else. This combo makes the smartwatch a great fit for anyone who isn’t exactly gentle with their gear. The Apple Watch Ultra 3 display is super bright, which means it’s easier to read in all situations, even at wide angles. This makes it easy to check your stats mid-run or in bright sunlight. It also doubles as a flashlight in a pinch. The Watch Ultra 3 comes with dual-frequency precision GPS that precisely tracks your route and pace, even in rough terrain. It will also track your fitness routines with ease. The battery will last for about 42 hours on normal use and up to 72 hours in Low Power Mode. The number will dip lower if you’re using the GPS workout tracking mode. The health features are amazing too, as the watch can take an ECG, read blood oxygen levels, track your sleep score, and even flag sleep apnea, hypertension, or irregular heart rhythms. The one issue we have with this watch is that it costs a lot of money. $799 for a smartwatch, even an Apple Watch Ultra, is a lot of cash. That’s why taking advantage of deals such as this one is important. At $99 off, the Apple Watch Ultra 3 is an easy pick if you genuinely live an active, outdoor life and want the best smartwatch for the job.

LiberNovo Maxis: The ergonomic chair redesigned for the bodies that design everything else
Macworld LiberNovo Early Bird Pricing June 16-July 31: LiberNovo offers its lowest prices ever Up to 44% off (function () { document.querySelector("#sticky-promo-block a").addEventListener("click", function(e) { const debug = document.location.host.search(/lndo.site|go-vip.net/) !== -1; const text = this.closest("#sticky-promo-block").querySelector("p.promo-title").textContent; const data = { event: "stickyConversionUnitClick", eventCategory: "Sticky Conversion", eventAction: "Click", eventLabel: text }; if(debug)console.log("Sticky Conversion CLick - pushing to dataLayer: ", data); dataLayer.push(data); return true; }); })(); LiberNovo is simultaneously launching three new chairs: the Maxis, designed specifically for big and tall users; the Omni Pro, a high-end model featuring electric seat ventilation; and the Omni SE, an accessible entry-level option. From June 16 to July 31, all three are available at super early-bird pricing — discounts exceeding 44% off MSRP, the lowest pricing LiberNovo has ever offered. For anyone who has been waiting for the right moment to address the weakest link in their setup, that moment is now. Designed for professionals There’s an irony that runs quietly through the world of professional design. The people who obsess over proportions, negative space, and the precise relationship between form and function—the UX designers, the brand strategists, the motion graphics artists, the architects—often spend their working lives in chairs that were engineered with little thought for any of those principles. And for bigger, taller creative professionals, the situation is worse still: a market full of ergonomic chairs that promise the world and deliver a scaled-up standard model with a premium price tag. LiberNovo’s new Maxis Series exists to correct that oversight entirely. Part of a three-chair launch that also includes the high-end Omni Pro and accessible Omni SE, the Maxis is LiberNovo’s large-format flagship—a chair designed from the ground up for users between 5’10” and 6’7″, supporting frames up to 399 lbs. From June 16 to July 31, all three models are available at super early-bird pricing, with discounts exceeding 43% off MSRP. For designers and sedentary professionals who spend most of their working lives seated, this is a meaningful investment opportunity at the lowest price LiberNovo has ever offered. Pre-order Maxis series from $809 / £719 instead of $1,299 / £1,099. LiberNovo Why “Large-Size” has always been a lie Ask any tall or broad-framed professional about their chair history and you’ll hear a familiar story. The headrest never quite reaches. The seat cuts into the thighs halfway through the afternoon. The armrests force the elbows inward at an angle that gradually tightens the shoulders. The recline mechanism, which felt solid in the showroom, develops an unsettling instability under real-world weight. These aren’t minor inconveniences. For designers working ten-hour creative sprints in Figma or After Effects, or analysts and writers spending their careers in front of a screen, chronic discomfort is a productivity killer and a long-term health risk. Lower back tension, poor circulation, and postural fatigue don’t stay at the desk—they follow you home. The Maxis was built by a team that understood this intimately, and the engineering reflects it. LiberNovo Designed with intention The headrest alone tells you this chair was designed differently. Offering 140mm of vertical and 120mm of horizontal adjustment, with a U-shaped profile that tracks the natural curve of the cervical spine, it provides genuine support for longer necks and broader shoulders—not a gesture toward it. For designers who spend hours leaning toward a monitor in focused concentration, proper neck support isn’t a luxury; it’s essential to finishing the day without tension headaches. The backrest spans 430mm at the shoulder and 520mm at the waist, providing full coverage for larger builds rather than the partial contact that traditional chairs pass off as support. A flared lower section relieves hip pressure during extended sitting, while LiberNovo’s Bionic Flexfit BackRest—built from eight flexible panels with a multi-pivot linkage system—moves continuously with your body rather than holding it rigidly in place. The 52cm ultra-deep seat eliminates the leg-dangling problem that undermines circulation and accelerates fatigue across long working sessions. Custom arc armrests with an extended adjustment range keep broad frames comfortable without compressing the waist—a detail that makes an enormous difference for designers who naturally shift and reach across large creative workflows. And a six-spring Controlled Recline System engages progressively by angle and weight, delivering smooth, confident recline without the sudden drops that make larger users wary of reclining at all. Underpinning everything is LiberNovo’s platform-wide Dynamic Support System: 60 precision joints reacting in milliseconds, four synchronized mechanisms continuously adjusting to your movement, and an ErgoPulse electric lumbar motor maintaining your spine’s natural S-curve throughout the day. Given that research shows the human body makes over 127 unconscious postural adjustments across a standard working day, a chair that moves with you rather than against you isn’t a premium feature—it’s the baseline that ergonomic seating should have always achieved. LiberNovo An investment in your most important tool Designers understand better than most that the right tool changes the quality of the work. A poorly calibrated monitor, a trackpad that doesn’t respond with precision, a desk at the wrong height—each creates friction that compounds across thousands of hours. Your chair is no different, and for big and tall professionals who’ve spent years accommodating hardware that doesn’t truly fit, the Maxis represents something genuinely new. The super early-bird pricing window runs until July 31. For creative professionals and sedentary workers who are serious about long-term comfort, posture, and productivity, the timing is worth noting. Pre-order Maxis series from $809 / £719 instead of $1,299 / £1,099. LiberNovo Omni: Dynamic support for full-body alignment In addition to the Maxis, LiberNovo is expanding the series with two other variants. The Omni Pro is aimed at demanding people and comes with electric seat ventilation—useful for long working days in summer or warm offices. The Omni SE offers the ergonomic core functions with manual adjustment and is the more affordable entry-level variant. Super early-bird pricing LiberNovo Maxis plus Omni Pro, and Omni SE have super early-bird pricing is available from June 16 to July 31 at libernovo.com. U.S. early-bird pricing Omni Pro starts from $909, up to 35% off Omni SE starts from $569, up to 41% off Maxis Series starts from $809, up to 44% off U.K. early-bird pricing Omni Pro starts from £849, up to 41% off Omni SE starts from £509, up to 44% off Maxis Series starts from £719, up to 44% off Deliveries of the Omni Pro and Omni SE are already underway, with the Maxis to follow from August 10, 2026.
