    Amazon's Glow is no more. The tech giant has discontinued the children's device, which included an 8-inch display and a projector that could display games on a mat, Bloomberg reported Tuesday.

    You can't buy the Glow on Amazon's website anymore. According to Bloomberg, the device was on sale for $150 (down from $300) on Tuesday before it became listed as unavailable later that day.

    The publication cited slow sales as a reason for the product's demise. It also noted the device's focus on remote connectivity as pandemic-related restrictions eased. Amazon announced Glow on September 28, 2021, before launching invite-only availability, followed by general availability in March.
