Three Amazon deals stood out in CNET's daily roundup published Sunday afternoon: a pair of bone-conduction running headphones, a 50-inch TV built for art lovers, and a docking station aimed at desk setups with too many cables.
The Shokz OpenRun Pro, the 2022 model that's since been succeeded by the OpenRun Pro 2, was listed at $110 when CNET reported the deal on October 12, down from its usual $180. That's a 39% cut. The headphones use bone conduction instead of in-ear or over-ear drivers, sending sound through the cheekbone so runners and cyclists can still hear traffic and conversation around them. CNET notes they carry an IP55 rating for water and dust resistance and a 10-hour battery life, specs the outlet lists as part of its running-headphone recommendations rather than its own testing.
For anyone who's wanted a Samsung Frame TV but balked at the price, CNET points to the Hisense 50-inch S7 Canvas as a cheaper alternative. The set was down to $650 from its usual $1,300 at the time of CNET's report, a 50% discount that the outlet says sits just $20 above the TV's all-time low. The S7 runs 4K QLED with Quantum Dot color, and its Art Gallery mode can display a single painting, cycle through a slideshow, or pull up personal photos loaded from a USB drive or a QR code. A Hi-Matte coating is meant to cut glare and make displayed art look less like a screen, and an ultraslim wall mount is designed to sit flush rather than jut out.
