Best Amazon Device Deals

The Paperwhite is the best Kindle you can get, and frankly, the best e-reader out there. The Paperwhite is fast so you get minimal delay between pages, brighter with adjustable warm light, and waterproof. Plus, 16 gigabytes holds thousands of books. If you upgrade to the Signature Edition, you’ll get 32 gigs of storage, wireless charging, and an auto-adjusting backlight. For $20 more, you can forgo ads on the lockscreen, but they shouldn’t disturb your actual reading. These haven’t been updated since 2021 and we’re not sure when a new version is coming. Still, Kindles tend to last for years longer than most tech devices and Prime Day is the time to get the best price. My Paperwhite from that year is still performing like it was on day one. —Medea Giordano

If you’re a Kindle fan who also needs a tablet for taking heavy notes or drawing, you might like the Kindle Scribe with its super-sized 10.2-inch screen and stylus. There’s no lag, so writing felt natural. The premium pen costs $30 more, but has an eraser on the opposite end the same way a regular pencil does. It’s not necessary, especially considering just how expensive the Scribe itself is, but it is nice to be able to move naturally. Unfortunately, you can’t write directly on books like you can on a Kobo. Instead, you have to use sticky notes. Confusingly for the price, the Scribe isn’t waterproof. —Medea Giordano

Folks seeking a simple mesh Wi-Fi system that’s easy to set up and use will enjoy the Eero 6. This dual-band Wi-Fi 6 mesh is suitable for relatively undemanding households with internet connections up to 500 Mbps, as discussed in our Eero buying guide. The Eero Plus subscription is quite costly at $10 per month or $100 per year, but it adds enhanced security, comprehensive parental controls, and handy extras like a password manager and VPN service. The Eero 6 is our pick for smart homes in our best mesh routers guide because it can double up as a smart home hub with support for the Matter, Thread, and Zigbee smart home standards. —Simon Hill

It’s still a bit early for most folks to consider Wi-Fi 7, but because Wi-Fi 7 systems are hitting the market, we are seeing rapidly falling prices on Wi-Fi 6E routers. The tri-band Eero Pro 6E (7/10, WIRED Recommends) is one of the best mesh systems, offering super speedy, if short range, 6-GHz Wi-Fi, handy smart home hub functionality, and compatibility with other Eero devices. The Eero Plus subscription is pricey at $10 a month or $100 a year, but it adds tons of value with security, parental controls, VPN service, and a password manager. This is the cheapest price we’ve ever seen for the three-pack, enough to cover up to 6,000 square feet. —Simon Hill

Amazon’s top-of-the-line battery doorbell delivers high-quality, crisp video with HDR support and color night vision, swift and accurate notifications, and good two-way audio. I love the option to set multiple motion zones, including a potentially handy bird’s-eye zone that lets you define range. The handy preroll feature captures a few seconds before each clip. The catch is you must subscribe to Ring Protect for $5/month ($50/year) for a single camera to get 180-day video storage, rich notifications, and person and package detection. Battery life was also disappointing (three weeks). It got an honorable mention in our best video doorbells guide. —Simon Hill

The Echo Pop (7/10, WIRED Recommends) is a geometric little speaker that’s easy to pop anywhere on your desk, shelves, or bedside table. I often have the Echo Pop out on display in my office since it’s so cute to look at with its half-moon shape, and the colorful shades of lavender and midnight teal are ones you won’t find on any other Amazon speaker (it comes in the classic black and white, too, if those are more your speed). It has a nice enough sound for the price point, though it lacks bass, and it’s especially a great speaker when you can find it on sale like you can right now. It often drops to a little over $20, but $18 is better than we usually find it for. I like it for jamming to electronic lo-fi and pop playlists while I write all day, so if those are your go-to tunes, you’ll like this fun little speaker. —Nena Farrell

There’s the Amazon Echo ecosystem, then there’s the Amazon Echo. What started as the tubular first-ever smart speaker is now the rounded fourth-generation Amazon Echo (8/10, WIRED Recommends). The latest generation has been around for four years now, and it’s still one of our favorite smart speakers you can buy given the detailed, room-filling sound, easy use as an Alexa-powered speaker, and great price point given the sound power packed into it. The rounded shape also gives it better acoustic abilities than the towerlike one did, and it gets much louder than similar smart speakers. It’s already a great price for all its features, and now it’s nearly half off, so don’t miss your chance to snag it for super cheap. —Nena Farrell

There’s always at least one Echo Show 8 somewhere in my house. I just moved, and the first smart speaker I set up was the third-gen Show 8 in my kitchen, where it’s become the downstairs DJ, weather station, and smart home hub. The Show 8 might be the middle child of Amazon’s smart display speakers, but it’s my favorite one Amazon makes and the one I recommend for Amazon users. It’s a perfect size to read recipes and the weather without taking up a ton of space, has a nice robust sound and good bass for the small size, and can even double as a security camera. It’s even got a built-in smart home hub to connect devices directly to it, rather than needing a third-party hub. Honestly, what can’t it do? —Nena Farrell

The Echo Show 5 is the baby bear of Amazon’s smart display lineup. With just a 5-inch screen, it looks a bit like a smartphone on its side, but with a camera in the center and speaker base behind it. I like the pint-sized option for bedrooms, since the screen will switch off whatever screen saver you’ve chosen to be a dark-mode clock with soft red numbers to make it easy on your eyes and not light up the entire room. It can still do everything the larger screens can do, but I find this screen size is really best for weather reports and clocks rather than video chatting or recipe reading. But it can still do it all. —Nena Farrell

The Echo Dot is small but mighty. The pint-sized speaker fits just about anywhere thanks to its small size but still has clear sound and good microphones built into it to pick up your voice, play music, and answer your various questions for Alexa. (Do I ask for the weather twice in a row because I wasn’t listening the first time? Yes, I do.) The Echo Dots have been popular for years thanks to the small size and cheaper price tag, but the 5th generation is the best one yet, and half off is hard to beat. There’s also the slightly more expensive Echo Dot with Clock that’s great for bedside tables. —Nena Farrell

If you love Amazon’s smart speakers but want the best sound money can buy, the Amazon Echo Studio is the speaker to buy, especially now that it’s on sale for Prime Day. The 350 watts of power and a downward-firing subwoofer are impressive for a speaker this size, and there’s both an upward-firing midrange speaker and two side-facing ones. That design means the Echo Studio is capable of playing 3D audio codecs that are usually limited to Dolby Atmos speakers, which is pretty cool. It still has everything else we love about an Amazon Echo speaker built into it, too, on top of these fantastic sound features. It’s one to jump for if you like asking Alexa for the weather, but want the best sound when you ask her to turn up the music. —Nena Farrell

Amazon’s Blink Mini 2 (7/10, WIRED Recommends) is the newest model of its security camera. It’s compact, but still captures crisp 1080p HD video and reliably captures motion. The Blink Mini 2 is weather-resistant if you want to use it indoors or outdoors, though you’ll need to purchase the version with a weather-resistant adapter ($50) to safely use it outside. We haven’t always been a fan of Amazon’s smart security offerings, but the Blink Mini 2 is one of our favorite affordable security cameras. You’ll need a subscription to get all the features, including person detection, live view recording, video sharing, and cloud recording with 60-day video history (30 days in the UK and Europe). You can also record locally with the help of a Sync Module 2 ($50) and a USB flash drive. —Nena Farrell

We prefer the Blink Mini 2 (7/10, WIRED Recommends), since it has a handful of handy upgrades, but the original Blink Mini is even more affordable if you’re on a tight budget or only need an indoor camera versus an indoor-outdoor option. For such a cheap price, there’s still plenty of features: 1080p HD video, motion detection (and the ability to make motion detection zones), two-way audio, and either cloud or local storage depending on if you add on the Sync Module 2 ($50) and a USB flash drive or get the subscription. It also pairs nicely with an Amazon Blink Video Doorbell, since the Blink Mini can double as a doorbell chime inside your home. —Nena Farrell

Amazon’s Blink Video Doorbell is our favorite affordable video doorbell. The video quality is nothing exciting, and you won’t get the same detailed notifications or video clips you would on more expensive models. But the fact that it can run for months on just two AA batteries makes it easy to set up and keep powered without needing any special battery sizes or wiring. It works with existing doorbell writing too, if your abode has that on offer. It’s especially exciting that the doorbell plus the Sync Module 2 ($50) are on sale together for such a good price, because the Sync Module means that you can skip out on the monthly subscription fee and store video locally. Just grab a USB drive to put into the Sync Module 2 and you’re good to go. —Nena Farrell

Smart plugs all work pretty similarly. Amazon’s Smart Plug works exactly as you expect it to: You plug things into it (A lamp! A TV! A light strip you lost the remote to!) and can remotely control the power. Amazon’s smart plug is nice if you want a guarantee to never need another app outside of your Alexa app. You’d set it up within the same app your other Amazon products, like an Echo speaker, are set up with. It’s worth noting that several smart plugs work with the Matter protocol and won’t require an app anymore to immediately connect with your Alexa. But ultimately, if you’re an Alexa user, going with the smart plug designed to work with her is a nice safe bet. The smart plug works well and is my recommendation if you know you’re going to only use it with Alexa, ever. —Nena Farrell

The Nanit Pro (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is a powerhouse monitor, and it’s one of my favorite baby monitors out there. Using Wi-Fi and the Nanit app, the Nanit turns your smartphone into a baby monitor, constantly playing the sound from your baby’s room through your smartphone’s speakers while you go about your evening—no more making sure you remembered to move the separate baby monitor when you went from the kitchen to your bedroom. It has cool tricks, too, like being able to track baby’s breathing and growth, and puts together a fun little recap of each evening. I love the floor stand since it gives you a great above view of your kiddo in the crib instead of a side angle without needing any hardware on the walls. The only downside is the floor stand is pricey, but right now it’s on sale for a fantastic price. If you prefer to install your monitor on the wall to keep it away from grabby toddler hands, that version is on sale too. —Nena Farrell

If you want to keep an eye on your baby’s vitals at night, the Owlet’s Dream Duo 2 gives you both a regular video baby monitor and a wearable sock, so you can both see them through the camera and track the baby’s heart rate and oxygen level. The app and monitor can also tell you the temperature, humidity, and noise level in the baby’s room, which is nice to keep an eye on. It’s a ton of information, basically, so if you’re a data nerd and worried about a baby’s vitals, this wearable monitor might be just what you need. The entry-level sock is designed for up to 18 months old, and while there’s a design for older ages, it’s really designed for those early days (and for babies who can’t remove the sock on their own). —Nena Farrell

Best Beauty Deals

I use this product almost every day. I most recently purchased it during Prime Day last summer, which means I’m due for a restock. Snail mucin exploded in popularity on TikTok last year, due in part to Emily Ratajkowski’s recommendation. I’m a longtime fan—snail mucin is soothing, hydrating, and overall helps my skin glow. It’s part of a lot of “glass skin” regimens for this reason. Obviously, you should not use this if you’re allergic to snails. But for everyone else looking for a way to be bright and glowy, this slimy stuff is worth it, especially at this price. —Louryn Strampe

The Remington Shine Therapy is one of the best curling irons we’ve tested. As the name suggests, it’s fantastic for shine. The barrel is made from keratin- and argan-oil-infused ceramic, so it helps keep your hair looking glossy and smooth. There are 10 different heat settings and you’ll get a heat glove to assist in the curling process. The handle is large, too, which will help prevent cramps if you’re curling long locks. —Louryn Strampe

I impulsively bought this viral lip mask after seeing it go on sale during every major shopping holiday. But reader, let me tell you—the curiosity paid off. I love this lip mask so much. I could write a book about it. It lasts forever—I’m still using my original tub that I bought almost two years ago. The balm is rich and moisturizing, and it’s not overly sticky since it melts down quickly. I keep it on my nightstand and take it with me when I travel anywhere. It’s especially nice in the winter or when traveling via air, or after an event when I’m taking off my mask. My lips have never been smoother or more supple. The consistency is super luxurious, the scents and flavors are light, and there’s no tint. My only complaint is that it’s easy to lose the tiny included spatula. If fingers in your product tubs bother you, consider purchasing a reusable applicator. —Louryn Strampe

A roommate in college used Paul Mitchell’s Express Ion Style+ Ceramic Flat Iron on my hair and changed my life. Until then, I’d never used a good iron and always had so-so results. After, I had hair that literally looked a different texture with actual body and life. The Style+ is still one of our top picks for the best hair straighteners. It’s been updated since I first tried it, notably with a digital screen for setting the temperature—it’s better to be accurate than having to guesstimate with a temperature dial. I’ve seen it work on multiple hair textures and curl patterns, so if you’ve always struggled, go with this one. —Medea Giordano

The Tymo Ring was a social media sensation at its release, and it lived up to the hype. It combines a straightening brush with a traditional hot comb, with an outer shell that helps you straighten hair close to the roots without accidentally putting the hot plate directly on your scalp. It took the curl right out of my hair in one to two passes. I had to use a quick pass of a flat iron to tame the poof, but softer hair textures will likely not need that extra step. We haven’t tried the newer Tymo Ring Plus. If it’s also discounted, it might be worth the upgrade, but it’s similar enough that you may not see a difference in use. —Medea Giordano

Not everything should cost as much as your outrageously high grocery order. There are a ton of great, pricey flat irons that we love, but Remington’s Shine Therapy Straightener outperforms many of them. It heats up quickly and I didn’t have to repeatedly go over a section of hair to get it straight (or curled!). You get the desired result without overheating it. While my coarse curls are never quite silky, my hair didn’t look crispy either—a win in my book. It also has an LED display, which isn’t always the norm at this price. —Medea Giordano

GHD is a leader in luxury hair care alongside Dyson, and the Duet Style is similar to the Airstrait. First, pass damp hair through as the hot air vents in the center of each arm dry hair. Depending on your hair type, this could be enough to fully straighten it too. But if your hair is particularly curly and thick, use Shine Shot mode after it’s dry to turn off the air and turn on the ceramic plates. Use it just like any other flat iron. Some WIRED staffers love that GHD products only reach 365 degrees Fahrenheit, but I personally want more control. —Medea Giordano

You wouldn’t think steam would be a friend to straightened hair. Yet the Steampod actually helps to infuse moisture into your locks while ironing it straight and then dries just the outer part of the hair shaft. This basically locks the hair so unwanted moisture doesn’t seep in once it’s set, so humidity shouldn’t cause frizziness the moment you step outside. It didn’t give our tester the poker straight look she normally gets from hot plates and it didn’t last as long. However, she said her hair felt healthier and softer. —Medea Giordano

The Solawave wand is a good buy for someone who wants to try red light therapy for wrinkles but isn’t sold on the idea of spending $400 or more on a full mask. It combines the LEDs with warmth and vibrations that genuinely just feel good to use. Two WIRED staffers said they saw visibly tighter skin, particularly around their eyes, after a few weeks of use. But because of its small size, you have to be even more diligent with how often you use it to see results. If you’re hoping for a full face transformation, just get a mask. —Medea Giordano

I’ve tried and liked a few pricey electric toothbrushes, but you don’t have to spend a fortune on the best. Oral-B knows what it’s doing after decades in the toothbrush biz and the Pro 1000 is for anyone who just needs a good brush and likes round, oscillating brush heads. It’s powerful, cleans well, and you should get 10 days out of a charge. —Medea Giordano

I haven’t used this specific Waterpik before, but the brand’s products all work the same. They’re like a pressure washer for the gunk between your teeth. They’re also faster than flossing. They can be great for folks who forget to floss since the process is so quick. There are seven different tips, which means multiple household members can use the device. The machine features 10 pressure settings, and the reservoir holds enough water for 90 seconds’ worth of flossing time. —Louryn Strampe

The Braun Series 9 is our top beard trimmer pick. Our tester notes that the quality of accessories is well above average, and if you’re paranoid that you might change settings while shaving your face, this trimmer is equipped with two safety measures. The control dial would be hard enough on its own to accidentally change it while holding it, but a switch locks that dial in place so you get a clean, consistent shave every time. —Medea Giordano

This makes our list of best beard trimmers for its luxury finishes. It’s not the most expensive of our favorites, but it still trades out plastic for hefty metal that feels substantial in your hand. The bottom is sturdy enough to let it stand on its own, too, without a separate piece keeping it steady. Our tester found that the steel blade system was a bit harsh on his skin over plastic, though. —Medea Giordano

Therabody makes some of the best massage guns, and the Sense is a reasonably priced option (for the brand, at least). It’s nearly silent, so you can use it at home, the gym, or maybe even at the office without annoying everyone around you. It has an LCD screen for controls and guided routines, and a breathwork feature with a heart rate monitor—you can find these in the very expensive Pro Plus too. The Sense has three fewer attachments than the Pro Plus, but most people won’t need all that excess. The pared-down Theragun Relief is even cheaper, but is only available from Target and Best Buy. —Medea Giordano

Therabody’s massage guns are its most popular recovery items, but I love the band’s Smart Goggles (9/10, WIRED Recommends). A combination of vibration, massage, and heat ease away eye pain and headaches, or simply give you 20 minutes of relaxation anytime you need it. It’s a pricey accessory, but if you suffer from frequent headaches like I do, it could be worth the money, especially on sale. —Medea Giordano

Best Apple and Apple Accessory Deals

I’m not the biggest fan of Apple’s standard AirPods (6/10, WIRED Review), but they do work impeccably well with iPhones, iPads, and other Apple products, and some folks find them to be just about the only earbuds that fit in their ears (looking at you, reviewer Martin Cizmar). This is the cheapest they usually get, so now is a great time to buy them. —Parker Hall

This is now the most feature-packed Apple Pencil. It looks identical to the second-generation version—matte finish and all—but with a few new noteworthy features. There’s a “squeeze” capability that triggers the tool palette (in addition to double-tap), as well as a haptic engine inside that delivers feedback whenever you squeeze the stylus. There’s also a built-in gyroscope sensor that allows you to change the orientation of the tools as you twist the stylus (which allows for finer control). It supports Apple’s Find My Network as well, so if you accidentally lose it, you can use your Apple device to find it. However, it’s only compatible with the company’s latest iPad Air (M2) and iPad Pro (M4). It’s pricey, but it’s the best option if you use your iPad for mainly sketching and drawing. —Brenda Stolyar

The 1st-Gen Apple Pencil has been around for almost a decade, but it still works well. It’s also compatible with a handful of iPads including the base model (6th-Gen and later) iPad Mini (5th-Gen), iPad Air (3rd-Gen) iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st- and 2nd-Gen), iPad Pro 10.5-inch, and iPad Pro 9.7-inch. It comes with various features too, including tilt sensitivity (for shading), pressure sensitivity (where the lines get thicker as you press harder on the display), and handwriting support within search fields and apps (like Notes). It dips to this price frequently, but we still think it’s a solid deal. —Brenda Stolyar

AirTags are our favorite Bluetooth trackers for iPhone users. They’re about the size of a quarter, and Apple offers a variety of compatible accessories that allow you to attach them to everything, including keys, bags, pet collars, and more. In addition to Bluetooth, it also uses Apple’s U1 location-finding chip that helps you pinpoint your item’s exact location via the Find My app. Using the app, you can walk around with your phone, and, using the phone’s accelerometer, gyroscope, and camera, it’ll direct you right toward the missing item. The Find My network, while giant, is also anonymous and end-to-end encrypted. —Brenda Stolyar

The M2-powered iPad Air (8/10, WIRED Recommends) came out only two months ago, but it’s already on sale. I love the new 13-inch solely for its bigger and brighter display. I’ve been using it as a secondary display to work off of during the day and watch TV before bed—both of which make for great viewing experiences. Under the hood is an M2 processor, which is the same one that powers the 13-inch Macbook Air and MacBook Pro from 2022. Equipped with an 8-core CPU and 9-core GPU, Apple claims it’s 50 percent faster than the M1-powered version. I didn’t notice a huge difference coming from the M1 chip, but regardless, the iPad Air delivered smooth performance even with various apps running simultaneously. You’ll likely notice a difference if you’re coming from an older A-series chip though. As with its predecessor, it also packs slim bezels, a USB-C port, and Touch ID built into the top power button. The only difference is that Apple finally moved the front-facing 12-megapixel camera to landscape orientation. —Brenda Stolyar

Even though Apple recently launched an all-new iPad Air (with M3), the fifth-generation version is still a solid option—for the right price. We also gave it an honorable mention in our guide to best iPads. It has an M1 processor (which can also be found in the 2020 MacBook Air), a 10.9-inch LCD screen, Touch ID built into the top power button, a USB-C port for charging, and support for 5G. Even with an older chip, it’s still plenty powerful for most tasks. It’s also lightweight, making it a great tablet to travel or commute with. It packs support for various accessories too, including the first-generation Apple Pencil and Apple’s Smart Keyboard. We only recommend it if you can find it on sale for $500 or less, so you’re in luck. —Brenda Stolyar

The iPad Mini (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is my favorite tablet to travel with. The 8.3-inch display is great for a variety of activities including watching movies, reading ebooks, sketching, and notetaking (it packs support for the second-generation Apple Pencil). With a modern design, the iPad Mini also has Touch ID built into the power button, a USB-C charging port, and the front-facing camera is equipped with Center Stage (which automatically adjusts to keep you in frame while on video calls). Under the hood is the same A15 Bionic processor that powers the iPhone 13 lineup, so it’ll easily handle taxing apps or games. It is, however, worth noting, that this model came out in 2021. Apple is expected to announce the next-generation version in September or early next year. So, I recommend waiting, if you can. —Brenda Stolyar

Clip the on-page coupon to see the lowest price we’ve ever tracked on the base iPad. The iPad 10th-Gen (7/10, WIRED Review) was never our top choice, mainly because it was too expensive for a basic iPad and the iPad ninth-gen was a better value. But ever since Apple discontinued the ninth-generation version and reduced the price of this iPad by $100, the 10th gen is the best iPad for most people. It comes with a variety of notable upgrades, including slimmer bezels around a larger 10.9-inch Liquid Retina (IPS LCD) display, a USB-C port instead of Lightning, a Touch ID sensor integrated into the power button, a 12-megapixel rear camera (up from 8 megapixels), and, most important, the 12-MP selfie camera has been moved to the center of the iPad—which means you’ll no longer have to stare awkwardly to the side during video calls. It’s powered by Apple’s A14 Bionic chip, which is also found in the iPhone 12, which delivers slightly faster performance and a bump in graphics over its predecessor. —Brenda Stolyar

Apple’s latest iPad Pro tablets (6/10, WIRED Review) pack the largest notable upgrades we’ve seen in a long time. The larger version has a slightly bigger and brighter display, at 13 inches, with an upgraded OLED screen (an improvement from mini-LED). The camera systems are a bit different too. Rather than a dual-camera module on the back, you’ll get a single 12-megapixel wide camera, a lidar scanner, and a new adaptive True Tone flash (which improves document scanning). Meanwhile, the front-facing camera has been moved to landscape mode. This is also, so far, the only device powered by the all-new M4 chip. I didn’t notice a major difference in performance compared to the M2 in its predecessor, but it felt smooth, snappy, and responsive, nonetheless. We originally recommended holding off on this iPad Pro, in case Apple announced any groundbreaking features for iPadOS 18 at WWDC, but none of the upcoming capabilities are exclusive to this chip. We still recommend the M2-powered iPad Pro over this one, because it’s overkill. But if you want the latest and greatest, we highly suggest snagging it only when it’s on sale—as in, right now. —Brenda Stolyar

This used to be the most feature-packed Apple Pencil until the Apple Pencil Pro was announced a couple of months ago. As with the first-gen version, it comes with pressure sensitivity, tilt sensitivity, and handwriting support. There’s a double-tap feature too, which lets you switch quickly between tools by tapping on the Apple Pencil twice. You’ll also get wireless pairing and wireless charging (the stylus automatically charges magnetically when attached to the top edge of supported iPads). It’s compatible with the iPad Air (4th-Gen and later), iPad Pro 11-inch (1st-Gen and later) and the 12.9-inch (3rd-Gen and later), and the iPad Mini (6th-Gen). —Brenda Stolyar

This is a great wireless charger if you own multiple Apple gadgets. It has a T-shaped design that suspends two of your devices midair, including your iPhone (at the fastest 15-watt charging speed Apple allows), and it can fast-charge your Apple Watch (Series 7, 8, 9, and Ultra). You can use the base to charge your AirPods Pro too (or your AirPods if you have a wireless charging case). Belkin has since come out with a newer version ($150) with Qi2 certification—the latest wireless charging standard, which you can learn more about in our explainer here. It’s fairly similar to this version, aside from a more rounded base and an iPhone charging pad that tilts to your preferred angle (with the option to flip it into landscape mode to watch a video or trigger StandBy mode). —Brenda Stolyar

The Symmetry Series+ Case holds the title of Best Overall in our Best iPhone 14 Cases guide. The mix of synthetic rubber and polycarbonate is durable, the raised edges around the display are higher than many other basic cases, and the buttons are satisfying to press. It has a strong MagSafe connection too. Overall, the case is protective without feeling clunky or adding too much weight. It looks stylish too, specifically in the lime green color, but there are also plenty of other colors to pick from. This case is for the iPhone 13 and iPhone 14, but it’s also available for the iPhone 15 lineup. —Brenda Stolyar

At WIRED, we’re fans of OtterBox cases. Throughout the years, several members of the Gear Team have had and tested OtterBox cases, so we can speak confidently about their durability. Many of our favorites are currently 20 percent off on the company’s official site, including cases, chargers, cables, and more. In addition to recommendations in our iPhone 15 and iPhone 14 case guides, you can also find the company’s accessories in other guides like the Best iPad Accessories, Best Wireless Chargers, Best Car Phone Mounts, and more. The Otterbox 3-in-1 Charging Station With Magsafe is also one of our top picks in our guide to the Best Apple 3-in-1 Wireless Chargers. —Brenda Stolyar

This is our favorite keyboard case in our guide to the best iPad accessories. It’s composed of two pieces. The first half covers the back of the iPad and comes equipped with a kickstand, while the second half is a detachable keyboard with a trackpad. The versatility is great for those who use their iPads to get work done during the day and watch TV at night. It’s sturdy, durable, feels nice to type on (the backlight keys are a nice touch too), and it connects via Apple’s Smart Connector instead of Bluetooth. It’s compatible with a variety of iPad models including the base iPad (7th-, 8th-, and 9th-Gen) and the iPad Air (5th-Gen and M2) and 11-inch iPad Pro (1st-Gen and newer), 12.9-inch iPad Pro (5th- and 6th-Gen), as well as the M4-powered 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Pro. It’s worth noting that if you’re buying this for the 13-inch iPad Pro, it does add a lot of weight to the tablet. Although I typically wouldn’t complain about this, it’s tough to ignore seeing as how the latest iPad Pro is lighter and thinner than ever. —Brenda Stolyar

This case received an honorable mention in our guide to Best iPad Accessories. It’s available for the base 9th- and 10th-Gen iPad and iPad Air (including the M2 version). It has a clear back that highlights the iPad’s design and a display cover that folds into two viewing angles and puts the display to sleep when covered. There’s also a latch that not only keeps the case tightly closed but also holds an Apple Pencil. It also comes in a variety of different color options depending on the model, including pink, blue, orange, and gray. We think it’s too expensive at full price, but we highly suggest snagging it while it’s on sale. —Brenda Stolyar

This is part of a broader 20 percent off Moft sale on all its laptop and mobile accessories. I really like the Snap Phone Tripod Stand—it uses MagSafe, so it’ll work with any iPhone that supports MagSafe. The magnets are really strong, and you can practically put your handset in any angle. It’s quick to get used to how it works, super lightweight, and an excellent travel companion if you regularly find yourself recording videos or selfies and want a way to prop your device up. —Julian Chokkattu

There’s no denying that iPhone screens are relatively delicate, regardless of how much Apple claims it’s improved the device’s durability. Whether you’re worried about scratching or shattering your phone, a screen protector is a great option—as long as it’s easy to install. The Smartish Tuff Sheet is a great choice. It comes in a two-pack, so you’ll have another one on hand when you need to swap it. You’ll also get an alcohol wipe, dust removal stickers, and a microfiber cloth to clean your screen ahead of installation. And, with the included applicator tool, the entire process is foolproof. We did have some air bubbles appear after installing it on our iPhone, but they quickly disappeared. —Brenda Stolyar

This wireless keyboard case from Zagg is one of our favorite iPad accessories thanks to its comfortable keyboard and detachable protective case if you want to keep your iPad protected without having to carry the keyboard around with you, too. The touchpad isn’t quite as spacious as some other models we’ve tested, but it’s still plenty to get basic work done. This case/keyboard combo comes in variations that fit most 10- to 12-inch iPads, so make sure you get the right one that fits your device. —Eric Ravenscraft

If you’re a fan of Apple’s StandBy mode, the iOS 17 feature that turns your iPhone into a smart display on your nightstand, then you’ll love this wireless charger from Twelve South. The 3-in-1 charger gives your iPhone more than enough room to sit in landscape mode, therefore triggering StandBy while also allowing you to charge two other devices simultaneously via the base. There’s a fast charger for the Apple Watch that you can either charge flat or flip up and another spot in the back for your AirPods or another wireless earbuds case. Since it’s Made for iPhone (MFi) certified, it’ll recharge your phone at the fastest 15-watt speed possible. You’ll also get a proprietary and removable charging cable, a charging brick, and international plug adapters for the US, UK, EU, and AU. It rarely goes on sale, so this is the lowest price we’ve seen yet. —Brenda Stolyar

Best Mobile Phone Deals (Plus Accessories)

I always carry two phones on me, one an iPhone and the other an Android. The Android is my work phone, and I don’t need a fancy camera but I do prize a big battery and fast charging. I have the luxury of working with one of the journalism world’s top experts on mobile phones, Julian Chokkattu, who had just the right phone to replace my busted Samsung Galaxy. The OnePlus 12R has been great. The blazing-fast 100W charger, which comes included, does its business in a half hour and the phone will usually last me two days on a single charge. The curved screen is pleasant and responsive, even if the photos don’t compare to my iPhone 15 Pro Max. —Martin Cizmar

The Pixel 7A (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is last year’s midrange Google phone, and it was just succeeded by the excellent Google Pixel 8A. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t spring for this sale though—this is a great price for a still-excellent smartphone. It’ll keep getting software updates for four more years, which is plenty of time. Performance is snappy, the cameras are great, and the best part is all the smart software features you can take advantage of thanks to Google’s machine learning algorithms. —Julian Chokkattu

I just reviewed the new Razr+ 2024, but you can get a similar experience with last year’s model without spending $1,000. The exterior screen isn’t as large as the latest Razr but it’s still roomy, allowing you to look at widgets, play some mini-games, and browse some apps. Performance is great, it’s super compact when closed, and you can open it up to view a 6.9-inch OLED screen. What’s not to like? Oh, and you can totally flip it closed to end a call. Nice. —Julian Chokkattu

Samsung’s flagship phone of 2024 remains the best Android phone to buy if you want all the bells and whistles, from a super bright screen to a versatile triple-camera system. All three Galaxy S24 models (8/10, WIRED Recommends) are on sale, including the S24+ and the S24 Ultra, the latter of which has a few extra perks like the built-in stylus and the extra 5X optical zoom camera. Read our Which Samsung Galaxy S24 Should You Buy guide for more advice. —Julian Chokkattu

The Pixel 8 (7/10, WIRED Recommends) will be getting a successor sooner than expected—Google has a hardware announcement planned in August where we are expected to see the Pixel 9 series. This discount is one we have sparingly seen before during major sale events but is a heck of a price for a flagship Android phone. The cameras are great, performance is speedy, and it’s packed with Google’s smart features that are genuinely helpful. My personal favorite is Call Screen, which vets calls from unknown numbers so you don’t have to ever deal with scams and robocalls. The larger Pixel 8 Pro, which also has a 5X optical zoom camera, is also on sale for $699 ($300 off). —Julian Chokkattu

The OnePlus Open (7/10, WIRED Recommends) is a great first effort from the company, not just in the hardware, but in the software. OnePlus’s interface allows you to have an excellent triple-app multitasking experience when you open the … Open like a book. I was able to swiftly cover an event using it, posting on X, Slacking team members, and taking pictures all at the same time. I just wish there was wireless charging. —Julian Chokkattu

This year’s Moto G Power 5G (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is the best Moto G phone Motorola has made in a long time. It looks and feels luxe, and has all the bells and whistles you could hope for in a modern-day phone, including wireless charging. The performance is solid, and the cameras are capable. It’s a no-brainer at this price. The only problem? Motorola promises one OS upgrade and three years of security updates, so don’t expect many new features after a year. —Julian Chokkattu

A Pixel 9 Fold is expected to arrive in August, which might explain this big price drop. The Pixel Fold (8/10, WIRED Recommends) has the older Tensor G2 chipset, but this is still one of my favorite folding phones because it’s quite short and wide, unlike many other booklike folding devices that opt for a tall and narrow experience. Wider apps are surprisingly nice as you can fit more on the 5.8-inch front screen, but you can open this handset up and enjoy a full 7.6-inch screen for all your multitasking needs. Just remember that, unlike newer Pixel phones, the Pixel Fold will only get four more years of security updates (and will only go up to Android 17). —Julian Chokkattu

The Edge+ was my favorite Motorola phone of 2023, and it’s still a good buy at this price. You get an immersive 6.7-inch OLED display with curved edges, a 165-Hz screen refresh rate, and the flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen-2 chipset of 2023. It has it all, from NFC for tap-to-pay to wireless charging. The only downside? The camera system is so-so, and this device will only get two more Android OS updates and three years of security updates. —Julian Chokkattu

The Galaxy S23 FE is the slightly cheaper version of last year’s flagship Samsung Galaxy S23 series, with lesser specs all around. It still makes for a perfectly compelling device with great performance, capable triple cameras, and perks like wireless charging. This is the lowest price we have tracked yet. It has a pretty good software update policy, too. —Julian Chokkattu

Want to carry a credit card or two and your license with your Galaxy S24? I like Smartish’s Wallet Slayer Vol 1. There’s space to fit roughly three cards in the back, and they all stay put—I vigorously shook the case with my cards in it and nothing flew out. The buttons are still clicky on the S24 with the case on, though it does add some bulk and the case does nullify wireless charging. —Julian Chokkattu

This is one of our favorite cases for the Galaxy S24 series, and it’s available for the S24+ and S24 Ultra too. It comes in two parts: a hard outer shell made from 35 percent recycled plastic that goes over a rubber inner cover. It has clicky buttons, good protection around the edges of the screen, and the port is even covered up (it’s easy to flip open to plug in a USB-C charger). —Julian Chokkattu

What we like best about this phone mount is that you can use it one-handed. Simply adjust the bottom feet, place your phone against the trigger button, and the arms automatically close around the phone. To remove it, press the release bars. Equipped with a telescopic arm and a ball joint, you can easily adjust the placement and angle of your phone too. The rubber clamp holds your charging cable in place, so you don’t have to fish around for it. This new version replaces the One Touch 5, which we also love. iOttie didn’t make a lot of changes to this version, aside from redesigning the cable clamp (it’s magnetic on the 5) and removing the adjustment knobs—now you can pull it forward to extend the arm and pull the feet down to adjust them. —Brenda Stolyar

Best Smartwatch Deals (Plus Fitness Trackers)

I’ve been telling everyone with an Apple Watch that’s older than a Series 5 that they will need to upgrade soon. WatchOS 11 has a couple of very exciting (for me) updates, but chief among them is that the OS is only compatible with watches released after the Series 6. Happily, that includes the second-gen of the Watch SE so if you’re not planning on waiting for the latest, greatest upgrades at Apple’s hardware event this fall, this is your best chance to pick one up that will have the new Vitals and Training Load apps. —Adrienne So

In a world awash with ever more technical fitness trackers collecting ever more esoteric data, I am grateful for the stripped down simplicity and affordable price of a Fitbit. Late last year, we finally saw the company start to integrate more Google features into its line of flagship fitness trackers. On the Charge 6 (7/10, WIRED Recommends), you can get directions via Google Maps, music controls with YouTube Music Premium, and contactless pay with Google Wallet. The app redesign is lovely and no longer looks like it’s from 1996. And of course, you get Fitbit’s full suite of health sensors and algorithmic expertise, although for the full benefit you do have to pay extra for a Fitbit Premium subscription for more in-depth features. I have a caveat here that there’s no fall detection and sometimes connectivity was an issue. Still, in a time where every fitness tracker seems to be adding on increasingly outlandish health metrics, the Charge 6 is refreshingly simple, useful, and under $150. —Adrienne So

I’m being dead serious with you here: This is my favorite fitness tracker (9/10, WIRED Recommends) and the one that I would wear if I didn’t have to test other fitness trackers. Apple watches are great but charging your watch every day, or even every other day, is a pain. With Garmin’s solar charging glass, I only had to charge the Instinct 2S Solar once every three weeks. It’s also much smaller than every other outdoor watch with its features—a huge variety of different preloaded sport profiles, health sensors like blood oxygen and respiration, Garmin’s actionable health algorithms, incident detection—and is rated for water up to 100 meters. The updated memory-in-pixel display is also noticeably sharper than previous iterations, and it comes in a wide variety of very cool, fun colors. If you like the chunky aesthetic of the cheap retro Timex or Casio watches but want a fitness tracker that can do something else besides tell time, the Instinct 2S Solar is your pick. —Adrienne So

Did you want an Apple Watch but you have an Android phone, or simply not enough room in the budget? Then the Sense 2 is for you. Like the Apple Watch, it has skin temperature sensing, blood oxygen sensing, and an ECG sensor to note signs of atrial fibrillation. It also has a stress response score, taking into account electrodermal activity and changes in your heart rate to tell you when you need to take a chill pill and slow down (although I found the stress response test to be only mildly helpful when I tested it). As always, you do need to have a Fitbit Premium subscription to access some of the best health features, like sleep tracking. I also have to mention that if you really do want an Apple Watch, the Apple Watch SE frequently dips on sale for below $200. However, buying an iPhone is a much higher barrier to entry than a smaller monthly subscription, so if you wanted a more high-powered fitness tracker, this might be a good bet for you. —Adrienne So

Bar none, the Pixel Watch is the most gorgeous smartwatch and fitness tracker on the market right now. The first iteration was missing a lot of features, but the latest one now has everything we wanted when it first came on the market, along with a faster processor and Wear 4, the latest version of Google’s wearable OS. It pairs with Fitbit and that company’s lovely app redesign and it has all of Fitbit’s health features, including a new feature called Body Response, which warns you when you’re stressed (like, you know, in the middle of Prime Day). It’s so pretty that it almost makes you overlook the annoying proprietary charger and so-so battery life (you have to charge it every day). —Adrienne So

We can go on about specs all day, but when it comes down to it, a watch is an object that you have on your body all day, every day. You should like how it looks and feels. That’s why reviewer Julian Chokkattu likes the Galaxy Watch6 (7/10, WIRED Recommends). Unlike most smartwatches that have you poking and tapping at a screen, it has Samsung’s famous mechanical rotating bezel that you can click and turn! Other than that, this is a pretty standard smartwatch with two-day battery life and the usual set of health and fitness features. Some apps only work with Samsung phones, so this is our best pick if you own one. —Adrienne So

Best TV Deals (Plus Streaming Devices)

TCL’s QM8 series has been among the best mid-tier TVs you can buy for years now. When Parker Hall reviewed last year’s QM8 (8/10, WIRED Recommends), he lauded the 75-inch model as a brighter and cheaper alternative to a projector. In my own review, I praised the TV for its mix of fabulous brightness, rich colors, and the striking contrast of its mini LED, among plenty of great features. We haven’t yet reviewed the 2024 version, the QM851G, as it’s relatively new. What we know so far is TCL has gone a little bonkers, claiming the new screen provides double the peak brightness of last year’s model to create the brightest mini-LED TV on the market, besting even the ultra-bright Hisense U8N. The latest QM8 keeps all the other features we liked, including a mini-LED panel, a Google TV interface, solid gaming features with HDMI 2.1 support, and much more. This TV stands to be one of the best mid-tier TVs you can buy this year and an outstanding mercenary of brightness to battle even the most challenging lighting conditions. —Ryan Waniata

Roku’s first TV, the Plus Series, was an impressive entry for the brand best known for making our favorite streaming software. With the Pro Series, Roku proves it can hold its own against some of the best mid-tier TV brands (namely Hisense and TCL). The Pro Series has a few flaws, including minor struggles with motion handling and, like virtually all LED TVs in its class, poor side-view performance. On the bright side, its mini LED screen provides deep black levels, powerful brightness, and quantum dots for vibrant colors. Unlike the Plus Series, it’s got a 120Hz refresh rate and features like VRR for smooth gaming at high frame rates. As well as it performs, the Pro Series’ biggest strength is usability, from its intuitive Roku OS smart interface to features like a button on the side that produces a chime from its remote when you lose it. I just love using this TV, and when you pair that with its standup picture performance, you get serious value—especially at its sale price of around $1,000. —Ryan Waniata

LG’s Gallery edition TVs have always been the cream of its OLED crop, but the G3 stands out as one of the best and brightest OLEDs ever made, a major evolution from the previous year’s G2. Utilizing LG’s evo panel with technology enhancements like MLA (Micro-lens Array), this TV gets fantastically bright for an OLED screen, while still preserving perfect black levels for near-infinite contrast, a wide viewing angle, and brilliantly accurate yet vibrant colors. The stunning picture is just part of the story, as the G3 provides a stylish panel designed to be flush mounted to your wall, four HDMI 2.1 inputs for 4K resolution at 120 frames per second, and top gaming features like VRR and ALLM. It’s also got a speedy, if somewhat clunky webOS interface and LG’s lightning-fast A9 Gen-6 processor. While the newer G4 offers modest upgrades, this is a fabulous flagship display that’s dropped to $1,000 below original price even before this sale. Not bad for one of the very best TVs you can buy. —Ryan Waniata

LG’s C-series OLED TVs are perennial stunners, offering tons of flagship features and premium picture quality at a price that sits a tier below the top 4K TVs of the season. The C3 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) was one of the best TVs we reviewed last year, offering impressive brightness, sweet and accurate colors, crystal clear detail, and generally fantastic performance across the board. It’s flush with four HDMI 2.1 ports to get the most from modern gaming consoles and PCs, a snappy (if somewhat clunky) webOS interface, and a refined design that looks gorgeous on your console. There’s a reason this TV is a surefire top choice for everything from movies to gaming, and with the modestly updated C4 now on shelves, it’s a great time for savvy shoppers to grab the previous model. —Ryan Waniata

TCL’s Q7 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) was one of the best affordable TVs we tested last year thanks to its mix of great features, an intuitive Google TV interface, and picture quality that easily competes with pricier models from brands like Samsung and LG. You’ll get a bright LED screen with expansive quantum dot colors, a 120Hz panel to keep up with the fastest content, and gaming features like VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) for buttery smooth action in everything from Forza Horizon 5 to God of War Ragnarök. The biggest missing feature here is mini-LEDs, which can enhance contrast, but the TV’s hundreds of dimming zones still provide a sweet mix of flashy brightness and deep black levels to appease even picky viewers on a budget. —Ryan Waniata

Samsung’s Frame TV has won the hearts of buyers for years now thanks to its distinctive aesthetic, which frames the TV panel like a painting to blend in with your decor. The latest model offers a matte, anti-glare screen like the new Samsung S95D (8/10, WIRED Recommends), which provides a slick aesthetic that looks more like the canvas of a painting than a traditional glossy screen. The anti-glare tech also dissipates in-room reflections more than regular screens. Behind the Frame’s matte screen is a 4K HDR QLED display, which uses quantum dots for bright and vivid colors. Add in features like a customizable picture border, background art displays at rest, and a sensor to turn the TV on or off when you enter or leave a room and you’ve got a work of art that’s also a solid 4K TV. —Ryan Waniata

After a decade away, Samsung jumped back into OLED TVs to near-universal praise with its S95 QD-OLED series. The second-edition S95C (8/10, WIRED Recommends) brings a potent mix of quantum dot colors, improved brightness, and all the best OLED traits like perfect black levels and a wide viewing angle. It all adds up to a picture that’s among the most stunning you can buy. Like all Samsung TVs, the S95C lacks Dolby Vision support and uses Samsung’s cluttered Tizen interface, but it heaps in plenty of other topline features. You’ll get a fully loaded inputs section, a fabulous gaming hub, and support for gaming extras like VRR for silky motion. Samsung’s latest S95D (8/10, WIRED Recommends) has higher brightness, but its new anti-reflective screen has pros and cons depending on your room. Especially given its sinking price, 2023’s S95C is one of the best TVs you can buy right now, full stop. —Ryan Waniata

The Roku Streaming Stick 4K is the best streaming device for most people. There are fancier devices with more features, but all Rokus are generally the simplest to set up and navigate. A no-frills home screen shows you all your apps without extra clutter so you can do what you came there to do: stream your favorite content. —Medea Giordano

This particular Roku bundle is an Amazon exclusive. Unlike the Streaming Stick 4K, the Express 4K doesn’t support Dolby Vision or have long-range Wi-Fi (you likely won’t notice much of a connection difference anyway), but it has a better remote. The Voice Remote Pro lets you ask Roku to do things, like pull up Netflix, without having to actually touch a button. That also means that if you lose it in the couch cushions, you just have to ask Roku where it is for it to play a sound. This has come in handy more than a few times. —Medea Giordano

With a 240-hz refresh rate and 4K resolution, this is an excellent projector for folks who like to game or watch sports at an up to 300-inch scale. It’s HDR10 compatible for great color, and a 15,000-hour lamp life on the DLP bulb means it will last you years of solid use. —Parker Hall

Best Laptop and Tablet Deals

Be sure to read through our guides to the best laptops, best cheap laptops, best Linux laptops, and best gaming laptops for more buying advice.

Acer’s Chromebook Plus 514 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is one of our favorites out of the recent crop of new, more powerful Chromebooks. It’s everything you need for everyday tasks like browsing the web, editing documents, and chatting with friends. The Keyboard and trackpad are excellent, which is unusual for a Chromebook and the touch display feels great. It’s not going to win any design awards, and there’s no backlit keyboard, but this is a lot of laptop for the price.

I still think Samsung’s high-end Android tablets are overpriced—but I also think the same about Apple’s top-end iPad Pro models. If you’ve been eyeing a high-powered flagship Android tablet with a beautiful OLED screen, high refresh rate, powerful performance, and an included stylus, then you know you want the Galaxy Tab S9 series. These slates from 2023 are still the most luxe Android tablets you can buy and it’s unlikely that Samsung will have a successor in 2024. The Tab S9+ specifically is the middle option in the lineup and packs a large 12.9-inch screen, but you can opt for the equally great smaller Tab S9, which is also on sale for $675 ($125 off). —Julian Chokkattu

OnePlus’ first tablet (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is currently our favorite Android tablet, though the company is actually announcing a successor today. Probably explains this deal, though it’s not the lowest price we’ve ever tracked. It remains an excellent slate, with a sharp 11.6-inch LCD display and a 144-Hz screen refresh rate, and the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 chipset inside is powerful enough for work and play. Make sure to check OnePlus.com to see if the company is bundling the keyboard or stylus for free. The keyboard is a very nice addition if you plan on doing some light work off this tablet. —Julian Chokkattu

The Fire HD 10 remains our favorite of Amazon’s tablets. The 1080p screen is much better for watching videos, and the 3 GB of RAM helps in browsing the web with many tabs. There are 32-GB or 64-GB models, with a microSD slot on both so you can add up to 1 TB of storage if you need more space. Whichever you choose, Amazon will serve up advertisements on the lock screen. To get rid of that, you’ll need to spend $15 more for the version without “special offers,” something we highly recommend.

The Fire Max 11 (5/10, WIRED Review) is the company’s attempt to make Fire tablets go to 11. From this effort I learned that, some devices just aren’t meant to go to 11. One big problem is the price, which this deal eliminates. At $140 the Fire Max 11 is worth considering, though it is still hamstrung by the same Fire OS that powers the cheaper models. Still, f all you plan to do is consume Amazon content, and the price doesn’t bother you, the Fire Max 11 is a good way to do it. The screen is bright and sharp enough, the speakers aren’t bad, and the cameras are 1080p and nicer than the cameras on the rest of the Fire tablets. —Scott Gilbertson

Amazon’s Fire HD 8 (6/10, WIRED Review) hasn’t been updated since 2022. It’s fast enough for most things you’ll do on a Fire tablet, which is why it’s our budget pick, but the screen isn’t nearly as nice as the Fire 10 HD screen. On this smaller model, pixels are often still visible and movies often feel flat. Still, the HD 8 has most of the benefits of the HD 10, including hands-free Alexa, stereo sound, USB-C, and nearly 12 hours of battery life. —Scott Gilbertson

Western Digital’s SN770 is our top pick for most people. It achieved speeds of 5,100 Mbps in my testing, which is blazing fast. If you’re doing a lot of drive-intensive tasks, like editing video or gaming, this drive is well worth the money. The largest version you can get is 2 TB, but the price is reasonable considering the speed increase. I’ve been using it as my main drive for several months and found it fast enough for everything I do, including editing 5.2K video footage and compiling software. My favorite part? It generates very little heat. —Scott Gilbertson

One of our favorite luxury upgrade drives, the SN850X is awesomely fast. Western Digital claims up to 7,300 Mbps read speeds, and in benchmark tests, this drive’s results came close. To take full advantage of the speed here, you’ll need a system that supports the PCIe 4.0 SSD standard, but this is a great drive if you want to upgrade a gaming system, whether it’s a desktop PC or your PlayStation. —Scott Gilbertson

You probably know what a microSD card is. These itty-bitty thumbnail-sized cards can help you greatly expand the storage space of your Fire tablet, Nintendo Switch, or compatible smartphone (as just a few examples). SanDisk microSD cards are popular for good reason. They’re fast and they’re reliable, and they tend to be affordable. The price of this card fluctuates wildly, but anything under $20 is a good deal. It comes with an adapter so you can transfer files to and from your computer. —Louryn Strampe

If you need a massive amount of storage space, this drive fits the bill. It’s the 20-terabyte version of our favorite hard drive for making backups. I have been using a variation of the Elements desktop hard drive to make incremental backups of my data for more than a decade now. These drives are big and require external power, but they’re some of the cheapest, most reliable drives I’ve used. They’re not the fastest, but usually backups run overnight, so why spend money on a fast drive you don’t really need? —Scott Gilbertson

Best Soundbar Deals

If you have a smaller room but are looking for immersive audio to pair with your fancy late-generation TV, this is a very solid choice (9/10, WIRED Recommends) that ranks among the best soundbars. It has clean looks, dedicated rear speakers, and a subwoofer, and the ability to fire sound off your ceiling for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X effects like helicopters flying above you in action movies. We see deals on this model all the time, but $400 is about as low as it ever goes, which makes now a good time to buy. —Parker Hall

Vizio’s Elevate (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is designed to bring a bit of visual excitement to an otherwise boring product category, using a pair of turning drivers on the outside of the bar to aim sound either at your ears or the ceiling, depending on what you’re watching. Play music or other non-Dolby Atmos audio and the two side drivers on the bar aim at your ears, but they turn skyward when you play any content with immersive audio, creating a height channel. It also comes with wireless surround speakers and a subwoofer, for a more cinematic experience than most smaller bars. —Parker Hall

When I started testing Bose’s pint-sized Soundbar 600, I was instantly impressed by the sheer musicality and immersion it creates from such a small frame. Bose’s blend of advanced signal processing and well-placed acoustics, including dedicated upfiring drivers, creates engaging sound for everything from Dolby Atmos movies to sitcoms or your favorite Spotify Playlist. The one missing element is lower bass, which can take some of the punch out of action flicks, but Bose does sell an add-on subwoofer should you want to supplement the soundbar later. As with Sonos’s Beam, the 600 offers streaming over Wi-Fi, a built-in microphone for Amazon Alexa voice commands, and the ability to connect with other Bose speakers in a multiroom audio setup. Unlike the Beam, it also includes Bluetooth as a backup to Wi-Fi streaming and a dedicated remote. It all adds up to a loaded smart bar that sounds a lot better than you’d expect. —Ryan Waniata

All-in-one soundbars tend to barely be better than the crappy built-in speakers on your flatscreen, which is why I was particularly impressed with this bar from Sony. Not only does it feature built-in drivers that are dedicated to low end (they call it a built-in subwoofer), but this model can shoot sound off your walls and ceiling to simulate Dolby Atmos object-based audio. Sony’s audio and video processing is legendary and leads to this smallish bar sounding massive, especially in medium-to-small rooms like apartment living rooms or dens. —Parker Hall

Sony has made some of the best noise-canceling headphones for a decade at this point, and the latest model continues the tradition with excellent sound and insane levels of silence. I like their clean, businesslike looks, which don’t draw attention to the luxurious listening experience you get underneath. They have a solid app, and support features like putting one hand over an ear to pause music for a second, which is nice for announcements on planes and in airports. Touch controls make changing volumes and songs a breeze, and the included case is great for tucking in backpacks or larger purses. They’re still electronics, but I also like that they come in eco-friendly packaging. —Parker Hall

The Space A40 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) are some of the very best earbuds you can buy for the money. They offer noise canceling powerful enough to quiet buzzing HVACs and turn bustling streets into a tranquil whoosh. Their sound is clear and accessible, with excellent delineation of instruments. They’re comfy and offer plenty of features in the Soundcore app, and they look and feel more like a flagship model than budget buds. You can certainly get better noise canceling and more precise touch controls by spending up, and the buds skip auto-pause sensors. Those are mere nitpicks considering the price, though. If you’re looking to spend well under $100, good luck doing better than these budget ballers. —Ryan Waniata

The Beats Solo 4 (7/10, WIRED Recommends), an update of 2016’s Solo 3, were a long time coming. For all the waiting, Beats kept the features quite minimal, without adding upgrades like noise canceling and transparency mode. The Solo 4s aren’t bereft of modern extras, though, with features like one-touch pairing and Find My support for both iPhone and Android devices, as well as spatial audio support and Hands-Free Siri support for iPhone. The Solo 4’s sound is what really impressed me, with clear detail and a buttery touch to the bass and lower midrange that combines for a fun and vibrant performance. For Beats fans after a deal who don’t mind sacrificing noise canceling, the Solo 4s could be worth grabbing above cheaper offerings, especially at a price that falls well below their $200 MSRP. —Ryan Waniata

When I reviewed the Studio Pros (7/10, WIRED Recommends), I called them good not great, which is true at their full $350 price. At $250 or lower, the Studio Pros rise above that status, especially if you like their style and sound, which are equally vibrant, colorful, and fun. Their zippy treble and firm but balanced bass help them stand out in a crowded market. They skip extras like auto-pause sensors, something the majority of headphones in their class offer, but they also bring some Apple exclusives like support for “Hey Siri” and Find My support. They pair those with Android extras like Google Fast Pair and Find My Device, playing both sides of the aisle. I was also impressed by the Studio Pros’ natural-sounding transparency mode, which pairs with their solid noise canceling for a pretty clutch package. Greatness is subjective, but at this price, I’d say the Studio Pros easily qualify. –Ryan Waniata

The 2021 Echo Buds (8/10, WIRED Recommends) might be the older version, but they’re still our favorite Echo Buds to buy. The second-generation model has wireless charging, active noise canceling, good overall sound with 5.7-mm drivers, and a great app experience, too. It’s easy to summon Alexa for various commands like setting timers and checking your calendar, similar to how you’d use Alexa’s smart speakers. It’s one of the best experiences you can get for the price, and that’s before it was on sale. These headphones often drop to around $45, so seeing them lower is a great deal. —Nena Farrell

Jabra’s Elite 4 Active still rank among my favorite affordable sports buds two years on, and what’s not to love? They’ve got a comfy and durable build, good sound, lots of customization features in the Jabra Sound+ app, and even some modest noise canceling. The fit is stable and comfy, allowing me to wear them all day for all sorts of activities. I love the accessible push-button controls, and the design is dust- and water-resistant, meaning you can use them for all your sporty adventures and even rinse them off when you’re done. Jabra has thrown in the towel on consumer earbuds, but the company promises to support all its earbuds at least through their ample two-year warranty. If you’re after affordable workout buds that stay put and work great, the Elite 4 Active are a great buy on sale or otherwise. —Ryan Waniata

Bose’s QuietComfort Ultra headphones (9/10, WIRED Recommends) are the ultimate in noise cancellation, offering spooky silence across frequencies. While no headphones can cancel everything, these get as close as we’ve heard, strangling sounds like HVACs and passing cars into near oblivion, and even shutting down louder annoyances like washing machines and barking dogs—especially with a bit of music playing. Speaking of music, they offer clear and spunky sound marked by excellent instrumental definition and good balance. They also support top features like multipoint pairing and spatial audio for stereo tracks with head tracking designed to anchor you in the center of the sound. While they’re tough to afford at full price, at well below $400 they’re solid value in this pricey space. —Ryan Waniata

Sony’s Linkbuds S are an odd follow-up to the original Linkbuds (8/10, WIRED Recommends) in that, besides the fact that they’re both small Sony earbuds, they share very little in common. Unlike the original Linkbuds, the “S” model has no hole through the middle to let in the outside world. Instead, they’re designed like traditional wireless earbuds, offering features like noise canceling and transparency mode to block out or let in the world around you, respectively. Their biggest asset is their small size, which makes them brilliantly light and comfy. They also bring lots of customization options like a multi-band EQ, speak-to-chat (which pauses the buds when you talk), and Adaptive Sound Control to adjust to your environment. They top things off with clear and zippy sound, though it does lean toward the brighter side. The Linkbuds S were too pricey at $200, but at $130 or so they’re a good deal for Sony buds with a lot to offer. —Ryan Waniata

These Sennheisers are our top pick among wired, in-ear headphones. Wired in-ear headphones are a great way to take top-tier audio quality with you anywhere for use with any device (provided it has a headphone jack). The Sennheisers are ergonomic and wrap comfortably around your ear for a secure fit, and a good seal. The quality dynamic drivers mean you’ll hear all of your music and virtually none of the world around you. If you want wired headphone audio quality but want something compact you can travel with, these are a great option, especially at this price. —Parker Hall

Sony’s noise-canceling buds (7/10, WIRED Review) won’t get you quite the same isolation as over-ear noise-canceling headphones, but they’re much easier to travel with. The relatively compact buds come with excellent adaptive canceling and great microphones for calls, plus extra features like the ability to sense when you are talking and pause the music, which is great for folks who hate constantly taking in and out one earbud for quick chats. These work great for workouts, with the included memory foam ear tips keeping them very stable in my ears. —Parker Hall

Denon’s PerL earbuds (7/10, WIRED Recommends) have a neat trick that maps your hearing like an ear doctor and adjusts the sound accordingly. There are lots of earbuds that offer some version of this, but Denon’s comes from a company called Nura that has been evolving its customization technique for years. The result is impressively clear and detailed sound tailored just for you, though you may have to do a few rounds of tests before you get it dialed in just right. The earbuds are bulky and can wear on your ears after a few hours, but the fit is stable and features like noise canceling, a volume limiter, and adjustable auto-pause make them worth considering, especially on a sweet sale. —Ryan Waniata

These noise-canceling earbuds from lesser-known brand Raycon (7/10, WIRED Recommends) surprised me with their quality build and great features. They rival much more expensive buds on sound, and I liked them enough to give them an excellent review at full price. At the $50 mark, as long as you’re in need of a pair of great cheap buds, these are a no-brainer. —Parker Hall

Jabra’s Elite 8 Active earbuds have a lot of good stuff, from clear and balanced sound to solid noise canceling, but their best asset is their design. With an IP68 rating, they’re both dust- and waterproof, able to accompany you from the trail to the pool. Their ergonomic fit makes them stable and comfy for hours of wear, without the need for fins or hooks to keep them in place during your toughest workouts. All of this has made them our perennial top pick as the best workout headphones. Jabra has a new Elite 8 version, which basically just upgrades the case with a wireless transmitter that can plug into 3.5-mm devices. The company is calling it quits on consumer earbuds after this latest pair, but promises to back their products through their two-year warranties at least. As such, the older Elite 8s are still a good buy, especially at their enticing sale price. —Ryan Waniata

Brands like Sony, Bose, and Apple get all the love when it comes to high-quality earbuds, but don’t sleep on Technics. The Panasonic-owned hi-fi brand has been making loaded earbuds with excellent sound for a few generations now. I was a big fan of the original EAH-AZ60 earbuds for their great balance of performance, features, and overall polish and the 2nd-Gen is even better. You’ll get mid-tier noise canceling, clear and detailed sound (including Sony’s LDAC tech for high-resolution streaming), and multipoint pairing that lets you seamlessly switch between not two but up to three different devices. They’re also quite stylish with a metallic finish that harks back to Technics turntables and amplifiers. At this price, you’re getting a sweet deal on some very good earbuds. —Ryan Waniata

If you want an AirPods-like experience on Android, it’s best to pair your cell phone with some earbuds from the same manufacturer. I’m a Samsung phone user and have really enjoyed my time with the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro (9/10, WIRED Recommends). They’re ergonomic and comfortable (more so than Apple models) and work extremely well with all Android phones. Noise canceling and call quality are excellent, and you get multi-device pairing if you have a Samsung device. They’re even able to do 24-bit audio with select devices. —Parker Hall

Jabra is leaving the headphone game for what it thinks will be greener pastures, but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t made some of the best earbuds around for over a decade. These are great workout buds that I find super comfortable, and they have active noise canceling that rivals more expensive options like the AirPods Pro. Six onboard microphones make calls excellent, and you’ll get over six hours of battery life (what AirPods Pro get) with noise canceling on. —Parker Hall

If you want to pick just how much of the outside world pipes through to you during your running or cycling playlist for safety reasons, the JBL Reflect Aero are a solid choice that rank among our best workout headphones. You can use the JBL Headphones app to choose how much noise canceling (or added outside noise) you want inside the svelte white earbuds, and cozy earfins keep them locked in your ears. Battery lasts eight hours, which drops to six with adaptive noise canceling engaged; you’ll have more than enough time for everything but ultramarathons. —Parker Hall

JLab’s Go Air Pop buds are an exercise in sheer technological concision. There’s nothing fancy or superfluous here, just solid earbuds that work well for less money than you might spend on a Tuesday night happy hour. You’ll get up to eight hours of battery per charge, simple touch controls, a charging case with multiple recharges, and even a few EQ presets to adjust the sound. The audio performance is understandably basic, but it’s easygoing and unobjectionable for music and podcasts. Add in fun colors and moderate water resistance and you’ve got a guilt-free purchase that’s perfect for those who just want some cheap wireless earbuds that get the job done. These are already our favorite cheap buds at their regular $25 price, and their latest discount makes them even harder to pass up. —Ryan Waniata

After a decade-plus as an A/V reviewer, I’ve heard way more than my fair share of mindblowing audiophile earbuds. While there have been plenty of highs, only a few leave a lasting imprint like Shure’s fabulous KSE1500. These specialized, electrostat buds aren’t for the timid, requiring a big investment and a specialized headphone amplifier/DAC (included), but when you hear them you’ll know sheer sonic bliss. Their sound is astonishingly clear, with instruments seemingly spread across a broad soundstage like radiant pillars. Every breath, string slide, or stick click is there, laid out in effortless detail. Maybe most remarkable is the KSE1500’s warm and rich tone coloration, which makes their brilliant definition all the more engaging. You don’t have to spend this much on earbuds to get amazing sound, but if you want true, ultra-portable hi-fi, the KSE1500 bring it, now with a very enticing price reduction. —Ryan Waniata

Sony’s Ult Wear headphones bring the bass, and lots of it. Like, an insane amount of bass, especially if you dare to go full-blast with the left ear cup’s sidecar bass button. It’s more powerful than I care to explore, but if you’re a bass addict it could be a fun ride. Without the bass button engaged, the sound is expansive and accessible, if rather flat and murky in the midrange and treble. The Ult Wear have some solid extras for their price class, including mid-level noise canceling that turns fans and HVAC drone sounds to mere whispers, touch controls for easy navigation, and extras like multipoint pairing. Not bad for a pair of Sony cans priced well under $200 on sale. The build leans more toward bargain bin than premium digs, and the sound quality doesn’t match up with siblings like the WH-1000XM4, but if you’re looking for bounteous bass in a laidback pair of noise cancelers, the Ult Wear will get you there. —Ryan Waniata

Whether you are jogging, cycling, working out, or running errands, headphones that stay in place and can withstand some sweat are a necessity. These open-ear headphones can clip onto a titanium memory wire to fit securely around the back of your neck. They can go for 14 hours with an additional 40 or so from the charging case. WIRED editor Adrienne So said they are the comfiest she has tested, and they appear in our best workout headphones guide. They have been on sale before, but this is the first time we have seen a discount this deep. —Simon Hill

The feature-packed Liberty 4 NC wireless earbuds (8/10, WIRED Recommends) boast excellent noise canceling for the money. Reviewer Ryan Waniata said they combine clear and relatively detailed sound with flashy looks. He also found them light and comfortable to wear with plenty of customization options, though he found the touch controls finicky. We have seen them at this price before (last year), but they have never been lower. —Simon Hill

With solid hybrid active noise-canceling, excellent 40-hour playtime, and pretty good sound quality for the money, there are our favorite noise-canceling headphones under $100. They have 40-mm silk diaphragm drivers inside and work well as a travel companion. Just be careful of the fragile plastic headband. While these headphones are frequently discounted to this price, we have never seen them cheaper. —Simon Hill

Best Speaker Deals

This isn’t the latest or greatest Ultimate Ears speaker, but it still is a well-designed option that is waterproof, has excellent bass, and has speakers on both sides for 360-degree sound (9/10, WIRED Recommends). Twenty hours of battery life and big volume and pairing buttons make this easy to use, and it even floats if you toss it in the water at the beach. —Parker Hall

This speaker only gets an honorable mention in our Best Bluetooth Speakers guide because it carries a high price tag. This Prime Day mitigates that issue with a hefty discount. The second generation of the Soundlink Revolve+ has some of the best room (or yard)-filling sound I’ve tested in any speaker, thanks to its lanternlike shape. Speakers all around shoot sound in 360 degrees, which makes this a great thing to set on a table next to the hors d’oeuvres. —Parker Hall

Clippy little Bluetooth speakers are some of our favorites for a reason: This form factor makes it exceptionally easy to put these little things on a bike bag, backpack, or even hang from a doorknob. They come in fun colors and are water resistant, and though there are newer, fancier options JBL’s clip line has performed well for us throughout the years. This one has 10 hours of battery life and an IP67 rating, for sand and sun. It frequently dips to this price. —Parker Hall

This follow-up from the popular Motion Boom speaker provides big and punchy sound, an easy grip handle for portability, and dunkable water resistance–it even floats so you can take it on all your watersport adventures. The customizable LEDs on the Boom 2’s front flash in time with the music to light up nighttime gatherings, while its battery life of up to 24 hours keeps the sound pumping as long as the party lasts. The speaker’s exterior has a budget feel to it, and the treble can get a little tinny, but its powerplant of 80 watts of amplification and three separate speakers, including a 50-watt racetrack woofer, make for a powerful portable backdrop for whatever you’re into. —Ryan Waniata

Sony’s little can-shaped speaker sounds way better than it has a right to for its size, especially if you give it a solid base on which to pump its tunes. When sitting properly on a good table or countertop, the XB100 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) blasts clear and pleasant audio with impressive bass for a speaker you can easily fit in a purse, pack, or coat pocket. It’s also pretty loaded on the feature side, with up to 16 hours of battery, Google Fast Pair, and easy access controls. It comes in a variety of fun colors, perfect for summer, and its IP67 dust- and water-resistance rating means it can hang at a sandy beach or even survive a quick dunk in the pool. This speaker has become my go-to option when traveling light, livening up my hotel or Airbnb with solid sound. I loved it at full price. On a good sale, it’s a no-brainer. —Ryan Waniata

Best Gaming Deals

The SteelSeries Arctis 7P+ (8/10, WIRED Recommends) used to be our top pick for PlayStation gamers, and it’s still an excellent choice. With 30 hours of battery life on a single charge, it lasts long enough to make it through most AAA game stories while only stopping to recharge once (or a few times if you’re playing Persona 5). The included USB-C dongle makes for easy pairing with a wide variety of devices, including the Nintendo Switch or even your phone or tablet. While the Arctis 7P+ is designed to work with the PS5, this flexibility makes it a great option for platform-agnostic gamers, too. —Eric Ravenscraft

The Logitech G735 is an older headset, but still a solid one that we recently revisited as part of Logitech’s Aurora collection. It has plush, comfy ear cups and a stylish ring of RGB lights along the outside. Reviewer Nena Farrell found them to be designed for smaller head sizes, but still only snug if you’re more cranially endowed. Even still, they’re light enough that you could almost forget that you’re wearing them. They might be a little bit outdated at this point, but with support for 3.5-mm audio, Bluetooth, and Logitech’s own Lightspeed wireless connection, it’s still a robust headset at a reasonable price. —Eric Ravenscraft

Anything we review here at WIRED rarely gets a perfect 10/10, but the HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless managed to earn it. HyperX claimed this headset gets up to 300 hours of battery life, which is about 10 times more than most competing headsets can achieve. I put that claim to the test … and it exceeded 325 hours. It’s not often we come across a company that claims to beat the competition by 10 times, much less one that goes even further. The ear cups are comfy, the audio quality is great, and the mic is solid for team chat, but that battery life is the star of this show. —Eric Ravenscraft

If there’s a bell and/or whistle you could ask for in a gaming headset, the Arctis Nova Pro likely has it. The headset comes with a robust GameDAC that comes equipped with a ton of EQ features to customize your sound to your exact preferences, as well as tools to mix sidetone, team chat, and game audio so you can hear exactly what you need to hear at any given moment. The GameDAC supports two USB-C inputs, so you can play on multiple consoles without having to swap cables. I loved the wireless version of this headset (8/10, WIRED Recommends) when I tested it, and the only thing this model is missing is the swappable battery system since, you know, wired headsets don’t need them. —Eric Ravenscraft

SteelSeries’ mechanical keyboards have bright, colorful LEDs and your choice of several satisfying switch types, but the standout feature that makes the Apex 7 TKL (and its siblings) unique is its built-in OLED display. This display can show notification info and system alerts, and monitor things like CPU usage or temperature. It might not be life-changing, but I’ve found it to be a nice little convenience that I can use to keep an eye on my system without having to pull up the Windows Task Manager or a system monitoring app. This model lops off the 10-key numpad on the right, which can save a lot of precious desktop space and is particularly handy when playing FPS games like Overwatch 2, where making big, sweeping mouse movements can mean the difference between landing that headshot or not. —Eric Ravenscraft

This is one of our older keyboard picks, but it’s still a solid option for a lot of people. Its tactile switches are among the most satisfying we’ve tested, and it’s compatible with most custom keycaps, so you can tweak the board to your exact, hyper-specific preferences. While numpads might not be the most popular feature out there, I’m particularly partial to them, so I’m happy that this 96 percent keyboard keeps them. The keyboard’s casing is made of plastic, but it’s high-quality material that doesn’t feel like it’s cheaping out compared to aluminum, like many plastic keyboards do. —Eric Ravenscraft

The Corsair K100 is a unique keyboard, thanks mainly to its customizable wheel on the upper left side. This is a feature most keyboards don’t have, but it’s incredibly handy for things like scrubbing through media or controlling the timeline in video editing applications. If you’re a media professional, there are several presets for Adobe apps like Premiere, After Effects, and Photoshop. I’m a big fan of using gaming peripherals to get work done, and the K100 has some unique options for doing so that I can’t find anywhere else. It doesn’t hurt that it looks pretty stylish, as well. —Eric Ravenscraft

If there’s another microphone as recognizable as a Blue Yeti, it’s probably the HyperX Quadcast S (8/10, WIRED Recommends). Twitch streamers in particular gravitate to this mic because, in addition to picking up excellent audio over USB without needing complicated extra hardware, it comes with RGB LEDs built-in. The LEDs sit under a mesh of circular cutouts, giving the mic an iconic look that catches the eye on camera. It also has convenient features like a large, tappable mute button and a gain knob built into the bottom of the mic, all of which make it easy to control your audio while you’re managing your stream. —Eric Ravenscraft

Nothing says “for gamers” like slapping a bunch of RGB LEDs on something, which means this mesh Wi-Fi system from Asus is screaming it. This system is easy to set up and supports Wi-Fi 6 and all the benefits that brings, including blistering fast speeds over both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands. Asus has tricked this router out with features to prioritize gaming devices so you can minimize lag in online, competitive games. But all of that is secondary to the most important feature: that grid of LEDs on the front in the shape of the Rog logo. It glows red by default, but you can tweak it to any color you want. That makes your games better, right? —Eric Ravenscraft

The Scuf Instinct Pro controller is our top pick for Xbox players and once you get your hands on it, it’s not hard to see why. Or feel, as the case may be. It has a satisfyingly grippy texture, a matte black finish, and plenty of customizable extra buttons. This includes four rear flippers you can customize with up to 16 different controller functions. This makes the controller excellent for complex, class-based games like Overwatch 2. While it’s technically compatible with PC, reviewer Simon Hill found it best suited for Xbox games, where the controller layout most resembles what the games are designed for. —Eric Ravenscraft

Plugging in an SSD isn’t usually a difficult process, but on the Xbox Series X/S, it couldn’t be simpler. The consoles have a dedicated storage expansion slot on the back for cards like this 1-TB SSD from Seagate. Just pop it in and your console instantly has more room for all the games you want to download. The expansion card features the same speed as the internal SSD in the Xbox console so you won’t notice any difference in load times either. The only (extremely minor) downside is that the expansion card sticks out about an inch from the back of the console, but it doesn’t take up more space than the ends of the cables that also plug into the back, so it’s unlikely it will affect how you arrange your devices. —Eric Ravenscraft

Curved, ultrawide monitors provide an incredibly immersive experience, and this QD-OLED display from Alienware (9/10, WIRED Recommends) does an amazing job at it. It has the characteristic infinite blacks of most other OLED displays, but with better color accuracy and less wasted energy. The 34-inch screen is pretty large, but the 3,440 x 1,400 resolution means that text is still super crisp and readable from a typical sitting distance, and the HDR Peak 1000 mode emits so much light (aptly, 1,000 nits) that reviewer Simon Hill said he had to squint while playing on it at night. —Eric Ravenscraft

I type to you from this very monitor, or at least from a laptop connected to this very monitor. The Philips Creator Series 27-inch has a ton of features I love in a computer monitor, from a 4K screen to an adjustable base with a VESA mount. But it has my favorite thing of all these days: a built-in KVM switch. I’m able to connect both my work laptop and personal gaming laptop to the monitor using the included cords (you’ll need to follow the instructions to make sure all cords are connected right) and then connect my speakers, keyboard, and mouse to the monitor to easily switch them between computers. It’s super convenient if you have two different computers you’re using regularly. —Nena Farrell

Logitech’s Pro X 2 gaming headset is our top pick for Best Gaming Headset, thanks to its comfy ear cups, 7.1 surround soundstage, and ultra-low latency connection using the company’s proprietary Lightspeed wireless connection. On top of this, the Pro X 2 supports a Bluetooth connection, which its predecessor didn’t, as well as a 3.5 mm input for wired audio. I test a lot of gaming headsets, but I often end up falling back on these as a daily driver because they’re just that comfortable and sound that good. It doesn’t hurt that they last up to 50 hours on a single charge, more than long enough to get me through all the Overwatch 2 games I play in a given week. —Eric Ravenscraft

In our guide to building a PC, we recommend this 1,000-watt power supply as a good option for desktop computers that have multiple graphics cards or an excess of storage. It’s quiet, fast, and efficient. The modular design isn’t particularly unique when it comes to power supplies—most PSUs around this price point are fully modular— but it’s still a nice feature to have. —Louryn Strampe

The Meta Quest 3 is a substantial upgrade over the Quest 2, and comes with an appropriately higher price tag. While the previous model had some rudimentary visual pass-through features, the Quest 3 reconstructs a full-color view of your surroundings with its external cameras, enabling a ton of AR games that weren’t possible in previous VR headsets. Combined with higher resolution screens, upgraded controllers, and a sturdy headset strap that’s not sold as an optional add-on (like with the Quest 2), the gaming experience on the Quest 3 is a bulky head and shoulder above its predecessor. —Eric Ravenscraft

The SteelSeries Arena 7 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) are incredible-sounding desktop speakers that have built-in RGB LED lights. That means your soundscape becomes a lightscape! Included is a 6.5-inch subwoofer that can be almost too powerful, which means gaming will be more immersive than ever. The speakers can be used with consoles, phones, and computers. They’d make an excellent gift if you yourself don’t need the upgrade. —Louryn Strampe

When you’re building your own desktop computer, the motherboard is one of the most crucial elements. The motherboard is the “base” of your desktop—everything else plugs into it. We recommend the Gigabyte B650 if you’re building a mid- to high-end PC using an AMD processor. It’s got plenty of dedicated slots for memory and storage, an easy-to-use BIOS, and a pretty straightforward layout. There are nice extras, too, like support for addressable LED and a few built-in Thunderbolt ports. If you’ve built a computer before, you might not even need to consult the manual when putting everything together (though, when in doubt, you always should). —Louryn Strampe

A processor is one of the most important components when it comes to building your own computer. We recommend this as a great AMD option for gaming or editing rigs. It isn’t the fastest or most powerful of the bunch, but it should still be more than enough for most use cases—especially if you’re not trying to spend a whole lot of money. It’ll be able to handle modern games and video editing, and it’ll do it for much less than higher-end alternatives. —Louryn Strampe

Best Charging Deals

If you need a very compact, folding, 3-in-1 charger, look no further. Anker’s MagGo 3-in-1 is perfect for travel and can wirelessly charge MagSafe iPhones or Qi2-certified phones at up to 15 watts. There’s also a pad for AirPods or other wireless earbuds and a fold-out Apple Watch charger. You get a 5-foot USB-C cable and power adapter with it. The fold-up stand allows you to place magnetic-backed phones in portrait or landscape orientation while they charge. This clever gadget appears in our Best Apple 3-in-1 Wireless Chargers, Best Travel Adapters, and other guides. —Simon Hill

Anker’s 622 is our favorite MagSafe power bank for anyone who has an iPhone that supports MagSafe. Just snap it magnetically to the back of your device and it’ll top it up; just don’t expect it to fully refill your device, as it only packs a 5,000-mAh capacity. (It topped an iPhone 14 Pro from zero to 78 percent in our testing.) Best of all, it has a built-in kickstand to keep your device propped up in landscape or portrait orientation. —Julian Chokkattu

This is a great hybrid wireless charging stand. In addition to your phone (it supports both iPhones and Androids), you can charge another device on the rubberized charging pad beside it—which we like to use to charge our wireless earbuds. It comes with a cable and adapter too. The stand can also be used in either portrait or landscape, but it’s important to note that if you choose the latter, you’ll block the pad next to it. We don’t suggest placing this on your nightstand though, because the LED on the front can be glaring (making it tough to sleep). But it looks pretty, with fabric wrapped around the stand, so you shouldn’t have trouble finding a spot around the house. —Brenda Stolyar

If your iPhone is forever running out of juice, a MagSafe power bank can help top it off without you having to stop to plug in. Anker’s MagGo Portable Charger is the best of the best MagSafe power banks because it’s slim, comes in fun colors, and can add between 50 and 80 percent to your iPhone battery. The fold-out stand is a handy extra that lets you prop your iPhone in portrait or landscape orientation for video calls or recording TikToks. It’s compact enough to slip in a pocket or bag and comes with a USB-C cable. You can also charge other devices using the two-way USB-C port on the edge. —Simon Hill

The Qi2 wireless charging standard, developed in partnership with Apple, introduces MagSafe-style magnetism for perfect alignment and a fast wireless charging rate of up to 15 watts. This chunky power bank from Anker boasts a 10,000 mAh capacity, enough to charge most phones twice. It also has a handy LED display showing remaining power as a percentage, a kickstand, and a USB-C port that can deliver up to 27 watts (a short USB-C cable is provided). So far, only iPhones support Qi2, but it is backward compatible, so it can charge any Qi phone, just at a slower rate. This is our Qi2 pick of the best portable chargers. —Simon Hill

All-in on Samsung? This charger is a bit long in the tooth; it’s not the fastest wireless charger, nor does it have the latest specs, but it’ll juice up three devices—a Qi-compatible phone, a wireless earbuds case, and Samsung’s Galaxy Watch series with no trouble. (Just make sure your watch is supported). It’s one of the few wireless chargers out there that support Samsung’s smartwatches. —Julian Chokkattu

Plugging in when you’re on the go can be a pain, but this clever device from Satechi is a wireless charger and power bank that you can take with you. The top flips up to act as a wireless charging stand for any Qi phone, there’s a spot behind to charge wireless earbuds, and you can also charge another device from the USB-C port. The downside is speed, because the wireless charging is only 5 watts for most phones (7.5 watts for iPhones), wired charging is 10 watts, and it takes three hours to recharge the 10,000 mAh capacity. Not only did this gadget make our Best Portable Chargers, but also our Best Wireless Chargers. —Simon Hill

Belkin’s BoostCharge Power Bank sits in the honorable mentions section of our Best Wireless Power Banks guide, but this is one of the lowest prices we’ve tracked. It has a 5,000-mAh capacity, so don’t expect it to fully recharge an iPhone from zero to 100 percent. But it comes in some nice colors, and there’s a kickstand (though it works best in landscape orientation). The magnets feel a bit weak in this one. —Julian Chokkattu

I love devices that combine functions and help you save space, and Satechi’s wireless charging headphone stand is a prime example. A mix of black and chrome, it blends in with any decor. There’s a well-designed headphone rest with cable management on the stem, and you’ll find a magnetic wireless charging pad in the base. It can wirelessly charge iPhones at 7.5 watts and other Qi phones at 5 watts, but you do need to supply your own power adapter (18W minimum). With mentions in our Best Wireless Chargers and Best Kids’ Headphones guides, among others, this handy stand is rarely discounted. —Simon Hill

This versatile, expandable, dependable device tops our Best Portable Power Stations guide. The Explorer 2000 Plus offers a decent mix of ports with support for fast-charging your gadgets and boasts a handy 2,042-watt-hour capacity. You can expand it with modular battery packs, use it as an emergency power supply (EPS), and charge it multiple ways, including from a wall outlet or solar panels. It is bulky and heavy, but there’s a telescopic handle and wheels to make it easier to lug around. It worked very well in my tests, powering various devices with ease, and it is relatively quiet in operation. The LiFePO4 battery should be good for 10 years, and Jackery offers a five-year warranty if you register. —Simon Hill

Best Travel Deals

Juice up your gadgets in more than 150 countries with this affordable adapter from Epicka. Sliders reveal the three most common international plugs—EU, UK, and US—and you can rotate the pins for sockets in Australia or China. As well as a socket, you get four USB-A ports on the bottom and a 15-watt USB-C port on the side for phones, tablets, smartwatches, and Kindles. It’s not grounded, but there is an 8-amp fuse for safety, and it comes with a spare. This is the budget pick in our Best Travel Adapters guide, so it’s already cheap, but we’ve never seen it lower than $20. —Simon Hill

Enter code 40YJ7S59 to see the discount. I’ve been using Zendure’s all-in-one travel adapters for years now. The Passport III has a boxy design with sliding toggles to switch between US, European, and British plugs. (It covers more than 200 countries.) The auto-resetting fuse protects your gadgets from power surges, and it has a 10-amp limit. I also love the funky, translucent design with a metallic finish (purple is best). Four USB-C ports, alongside a single USB-A port and an AC socket, let you charge six devices simultaneously. It can fast charge most phones and charge laptops, with up to 65 watts from the USB-C. The upgrade pick in our Best Travel Adapters guide, this universal travel adapter was expensive when it was first released, but it has come down in price significantly. —Simon Hill

This stroller just arrived at my home to test for our guide to strollers. I was intrigued by the cargo mode that lets the sides fold down flat to cart things around, or you can also lower the sides to make it easier for your bossy toddler (don’t mind me projecting here) to get out on his own, because he absolutely does not want your help. You also fold it down flat to store it, reminding me of what I like about the more expensive Veer wagon. Will it unseat the Veer for me? I’m not sure yet, but if you want something similar to a Veer without paying Veer prices, this is the closest I’ve found but with way more built-in storage. —Nena Farrell

This convertible car seat is popular for a reason. I’ve tried a couple different car seats, and I’m always so happy with how easy the straps are to maneuver on the Graco Extend2Fit, and they don’t get stuck or twisted as often as other car seats I’ve used. My kid started using this car seat when he was around 9 months old and grew out of the infant car seat (gotta love having a tall kid!), and it’s been easy to adjust as he gets taller and taller. It’s been easy to take out and pop into other cars when my parents babysit. I’m counting down the days till my kid is 2, because 2-year-olds can have their car seats facing forward, and it’ll be so much easier to hand him snacks or toys while I drive once we’re both facing the same way. And there’s no new car seat required—we’ll just unbuckle the Extend2Fit, flip it around, and secure it back into the car. Voila! —Nena Farrell

People who love cameras are meticulous and conscientious by nature, which I say by way of explaining exactly why it took WIRED reviewer Julian Chokkattu years to find the exact right camera bag. That bag is the Wandrd Prvke, which is the best camera bag in our guide to the Best Laptop Bags for Work, and crazily enough, everything from Wandrd’s Amazon store is 40 percent off for Prime Day. Chokkattu finds this 31-liter bag big enough to hold everything he needs for a full day of work. It’s extremely padded and durable, but what really sells it is the pockets, pockets, pockets, just like the ones the hobbitses have. He can fit a camera, shotgun mic, another lens, an external monitor, and more. —Adrienne So

This is a top recommendation in our Best Camera Bags guide. The Wandrd Transit is great for everyday use but also can handle a weekend trip just fine, and it doesn’t stick out as a camera bag. I tested the 35-liter model, which can fit in a lot of gear via the Essential Camera Cube (not included). The area above where the cube sits can fit a day’s worth of clothes (and a bit more). There are plenty of pouches, pockets, and sleeves to fit chargers, laptops, audio equipment, and even a tripod in the side pocket. It can handle the elements without issue and is compliant as a carry-on with most airlines. This is part of a broader 20 percent off Prime Day sale on all of Wandrd’s products. —Julian Chokkattu

Our top camera sling recommendation, the Wandrd Rogue comes in several sizes. I tested the largest 9-liter model and it has been my go-to sling whenever I travel by bike or scooter. You can cinch it as a sling, messenger, or waist pack, and it has enough room for my mirrorless camera and two lenses. I also regularly attach a tripod to the bottom straps, and it all feels fairly compact. —Julian Chokkattu

Best Home Office Deals

This is a nice compact standing desk, though you can get it in a larger size. You have several different tops to choose from to match your home office’s aesthetic. There’s a paddle on the corner to push the desk up or down, and it has two height presets. Setting these presets isn’t super intuitive, so make sure to follow the manual. It was easy to put together. —Julian Chokkattu

Branch often has sales on its own storefront but rarely discounts its products on Amazon. Now you can get one of the lowest prices we’ve tracked on our favorite office chair for most people. It works for people of varying heights, and you get a lot of adjustability considering the price. You can move the armrests back and forward and up and down, plus the seat can extend out or be pushed in. It looks elegant, and you have a lot of colors to choose from. Everything at Branch’s Amazon storefront is seeing a 20 percent discount; even our upgrade chair recommendation, the Branch Verve. —Julian Chokkattu

Best Camera Deals (Plus Binoculars)

This is not technically a Prime Day deal, but it is a good one. We love the Hero 12, it’s our top pick action camera for more people. It’s the camera a reach for when I head out to door. It’s got good battery life, excellent stabilization, and it overheats far less than previous models. The only real downside is it dropped GPS support. If you want that you can add a separate GPS accessory or go for the GoPro 11 below. This same deal is available on GoPro.com, which is where I suggest you buy it since you’ll also get a free one-year subscription to GoPro Premium. That’s GoPro’s subscription service, which gives unlimited cloud storage, damaged camera replacement, up discounts on accessories (it’ll renew at $50/year). —Scott Gilbertson

This is another deal that’s been going for a while, but it’s still a good one. If you can afford it, I suggest the Hero 12 above. It’s better in every way, except the GPS support. If you want in-camera GPS or just want to save $50 over the Hero 12, this is our favorite discount GoPro. It has the same sensor and processor as the new Hero 12, though it is missing the latest generation stabilization (it still has excellent stabilization though). Again, you might as well buy it at GoPro and get the free one-year subscription. —Scott Gilbertson

Once our top pick among mirrorless cameras, the A7III remains a solid choice, especially on sale for under $1,300. The 24 megapixel sensor can capture 15 stops of dynamic range in 14-bit uncompressed RAW files and the autofocus, while that as good as the A7IV or A7V, is still solid. It can shoot excellent 4K video as well, and is still a popular choice with YouTubers. I wouldn’t hesitate to invest at this price, it’ll save you some money that you can dedicate to lenses. —Scott Gilbertson

Fujifilm Instax Mini 11 Instant Camera (Non-Deal)

Lots of sites are going to suggest this is a deal. It’s not. Don’t fall for it. Every Prime Day Amazon reaches into some vast storehouse of outdated Instax cameras and comes up with a “deal” on the Mini 11. Avoid the Instax Mini 11. It’s only a few dollars cheaper than the newer, better Mini 12 and lacks most of the features that make the Mini 12 such a good buy. If you can find the Mini 11 for under $50, maybe it’s worth it. But otherwise, avoid the Mini 11, and get yourself a much more capable Mini 12. —Scott Gilbertson

HP’s Sprocket printer had the best quality prints (with nice, rich blacks and life-like colors) out of all the Z-ink printers we’ve tested. It’s roughly the size of a phone and can print direct from your iPhone or Android phone via Bluetooth. The mobile app lets you edit and customize your photos before printing and there’s an option to tile your images onto multiple prints for a larger, pieced-together image. —Scott Gilbertson

Fujifilm Instax Square SQ6 is one of the runner up picks in our Instax camera guide for square film. The SQ 6 is technically a better camera than our pick, the SQ 40, with several manual shooting options. Unfortunately, SQ 67 appears to have been discontinued (it’s no longer on Fujifilm’s Instax website anyway, and it’s getting hard to find at retailers. Yet here we are, with a Prime Day Deal on the SQ6. If you love the Instax square film, I say go for it. —Scott Gilbertson

These are the larger siblings of the TrailSeeker 8×32 binoculars, which we love (8/10, WIRED Review). The difference there is the size of the front lens in millimeters. This pair, with it’s 42mm lenses, will aloow more light reach your eye, which translates to a bigger, brighter, and clearer image (all other factors being the same, which in this case they are). I have never used this particular model, but given how much I like the 8×32, I have no problem recommending these. —Scott Gilbertson

My wife calls these “clown binoculars” because they’re huge and you do look ridiculous holding them. They’re not really meant to be held, they’re very heavy and do best on a tripod. When you think stargazing you probably think telescopes, but binoculars work too, especially huge ones like Celestron Skymasters. The Porro prism design, with 15x magnification and 70mm objective lenses make these are nice and bright, perfect for getting good views of the moon. They also work for larger clusters and nebulae. They do work for birding as well, but its more like using a spotting scope. —Scott Gilbertson

When Is Amazon Prime Day?

Amazon’s big sale event runs from Tuesday, July 16 through Wednesday, July 17, 2024. It ends at 2:59 am ET on July 17 (11:59 pm PT).

Will You Need a Prime Membership?

Yes, this event is for Amazon Prime members, meaning most of these Prime Day deals are for subscribers only. If you want to take the ride you need to buy the ticket. In this case, the ticket is $15 a month, and you get free two-day shipping. There are a whole bunch of other Prime Day perks you can take advantage of as well. You can also sign up for a 30-day Amazon Prime trial. Just register before the event and cancel right when the trial ends so you can take advantage of these deals. That said, there are a lot of discounted products available to folks who are not Prime subscribers. Retailers like Best Buy and Walmart are also price-matching some items or throwing their own competing sales.

What Are Invite-Only Deals?

Last year Amazon introduced invite-only deals—a system to help make it easier for Prime members to access deals that are expected to sell out quickly—and the company brought it back for Prime Big Deal Days. The feature is only available on select products but it has spread across a variety of categories and price points.

If a specific product is part of the Invite-Only Deals system, you’ll see a “Request Invite” button on the right-hand side. All you have to do is click it for a chance to buy the product at that sale price. However, it’s important to note that there’s no guarantee you’ll receive the invite. You can learn more about the program and how it works in our story on How to Shop Like a Pro During Amazon Prime Day.
