Tech Deals

The Nextbase 622GW is our very favorite dashcam. It comes in a few configurations with varying prices, but this deal gets you the base model that records the front-end view. (If you want a rear view as well, there’s a slight discount on Amazon, but the price isn’t as good based on historical data.) The camera is easy to mount and can record video in 4K at 30 frames per second, and it offers clear views of license plates and your vehicle’s surroundings. It’s got solid night vision and image stabilization, and the companion app has options for Alexa-based voice support, video review, and subscription-based SOS alerts in case of an accident.

The Sonos Roam 2 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) is the best smart Bluetooth speaker. It’s dust- and water-resistant, has 10 hours of listening time, and is about as big as a 16-ounce beer can. It’s easy to tote around and it charges via USB-C, and most important, it sounds fantastic despite its small size. It’s hard to find a better Bluetooth speaker for the price. If you want a larger speaker, the pricier Sonos Move 2 is down to $336 ($113 off).

We like this little Bluetooth speaker, which has a built-in strap and sits flat in a bike basket or cupholder. It’s dust- and water-resistant and boasts a 16-hour battery life, and you can even pair two of these together for stereo sound. It’s just under 4 inches tall, so you can take it with you everywhere—and though it may be small, it still has great sound. There are four available colors, all of which are discounted.

Sony WH-1000MX5Photograph: Sony

We see this deal quite often, but we’d be remiss not to include this discount on one of our favorite pairs of headphones. The Sony WH-1000XM5 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) have an excruciatingly annoying name, but they make up for it in sound quality and value overall. They were just replaced with a new addition to the lineup, but this pair is still fantastic, with excellent sound quality and class-leading noise cancellation. They’re lightweight, comfortable, and easy to control. What more could you ask for?

This affordable, wearable reading light is one of our favorites, and it’s even cheaper right now when you apply the on-page coupon. The light wraps around your neck to provide hands-free illumination. There are three color temperatures and six brightness settings, and the light itself is available in seven different colors. The battery lasts for up to 80 hours on a single charge.

Our favorite reading light overall is both affordable and versatile. It’s got an adjustable gooseneck and two swiveling light bars, and the clamp can be attached to a nightstand or headboard with ease. There are three color temperatures and five brightness levels. If you want a book light but don’t want the wearable option listed above, go with this one.

Most sizes of this TV are $100 off. The LG C4 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) is the best high-end TV. It offers excellent brightness and color, with a slim bezel that helps it blend in with your existing living room decor. There’s support for Dolby Vision as well as a magic remove, plus easy casting with Google Chromecast or Apple AirPlay. We haven’t seen this sell for less.

The Beats Pill (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is a feature-packed Bluetooth speaker available in several discounted colors. It has fast pairing for both Apple and Android devices, plus a built-in speakerphone and the ability to charge other devices (though you should probably just use a power bank for that). It also has Beats’ Fast Fuel feature, meaning 10 minutes of charging gets you 5 hours of playback time (a full charge gets you 24 hours of battery life). And it also has Beats’ characteristic bass-heavy sound, making it a good option for parties.

This charging stand fluctuates in price all the time, but this comes within $10 of the lowest price we’ve seen. We think 3-in-1 chargers make the most sense for Apple Watch owners, but if you just need to charge your phone and AirPods, this is a solid pick. It can fast-charge your phone in landscape or portrait mode, and it’ll top off your compatible AirPods too. Perhaps best of all is the fact that this comes with a wall charger, a feature that may seem like a no-brainer but often goes forgotten for gadgets such as this.

The newest base iPad (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is our favorite for most people. This is a small discount, but it’s still the best price drop we’ve seen for this model, which was released in April of this year. It has Touch ID, USB-C charging, and more base storage than its predecessors. It looks nice and performs well, though note that this iPad doesn’t support Apple Intelligence (which you may view as a benefit). Overall, if you’re on the hunt for the best tablet and don’t need any fancy bells and whistles, this is the one you want.

This cute, colorful smartwatch made our list of the best heart rate monitors. It doesn’t need a chest strap to deliver accurate heart rate metrics, including heart rate variability and whether or not you’ve fully recovered from your previous workouts. The battery lasts for up to 13 days depending on whether or not you’re using GPS mode.

It isn’t hard to find high-quality, inexpensive earbuds these days. In fact, we have a whole list of the best cheap headphones. But the Anker Soundcore Space A40 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) remain an honorable mention in our guide despite being a few years old. They have clear sound and great noise canceling, with a polished look that belies their price tag. They’re available in five different colors, all of which are discounted to $45 or $50.

The Blink Video Doorbell is our favorite budget option, and this gets you the version we recommend. It includes the Sync 2 Module, which means you don’t have need a subscription to get access to recorded videoclips. It runs off AA batteries, so you won’t need to fiddle with wires or a complicated setup. The video and audio is clear enough, though a bit basic, but the whole package is cheap enough that it’s still worth considering. If you want a simple video doorbell, this is a solid pick.

This little pyramid is one of our favorite gifts for remote workers. Simply affix the included magnetic clips onto your cables, and you can easily keep them all in one spot. If your nightstand, desk, or kitchen counter is full of stray cables, this is an easy and affordable way to get them under control.

It’s just an honorable mention in our Bluetooth Speaker Buying Guide, but there’s no denying the fact that some people just love Marshall’s speakers. This comes within $20 of the best discount we’ve seen, and it matches the best price we’ve tracked all year. The sound is smooth and balanced, and the steel grille adds to the guitar amp design’s flair. The battery lasts about 20 hours.

The best cheap robot vacuum is now even more affordable. It has a companion smartphone app that’s easy to navigate, and the vacuum’s mapping is fast and accurate. There are a few fiddly areas—for example, sometimes the vacuum will return to its charging dock, but not seat itself accurately—and you do have to empty the dustbin yourself. But overall, this gadget will efficiently de-dust your floors, and it’ll do it for a much lower price than other botvacs.

If you have a 7th, 8th, or 9th-Generation iPad, this is the best keyboard case you can get. This is a combination case, keyboard, trackpad, and kickstand. It’s a bit top heavy, but it’s easy to attach your iPad, and you can also detach the keyboard from the tablet case. It has backlit keys and connects via the Smart Connector so you don’t need to worry about charging it separately. It fluctuates in price pretty frequently, but this is still a good deal.

I love the Buffy Breeze comforter, especially for the summer. It’s permanently in my bedding rotation and has been for years, ever since I first tested it. I struggle to sleep without a blanket, even if there’s a corn sweat heat wave happening outside. The Breeze is made with silky, cooling eucalyptus fabric, making it a perfect option for the warmer months. But the blanket is still warm enough for winter use with another comforter thrown on top. It’s breathable and cozy-feeling. This price makes it even better.

We recommend Quince bedding in several guides. The brand makes our favorite down comforter, the best budget bamboo sheets, and the best affordable linen sheets. Right now you can upgrade your whole bedding setup and save a bit of cash. There are options for bamboo, percale, down, and linen.

The Mill Food Recycler (6/10, WIRED Review) is usually quite expensive, and it doesn’t go on sale very often. In our guide to the Best Home Composters, we recommend this model for its large capacity and for the fact there’s an option that actually lets you recycle food waste through the mail. It’s a great option if you aren’t a huge gardener or you don’t have a compost pile. The app makes the process user-friendly, and you’ll only need to empty the bin about once per month.

Meal kit companies almost always have some sort of promotion going for new subscribers, but this is one of the better discounts we’ve seen for Purple Carrot (8/10, WIRED Recommends). It’s a vegan meal kit service that offers adventurous recipes, which can be a little time-consuming but are ultimately a worthy choice for any intermediate-to-advanced home chef. When I tested the service out a few years ago, I was impressed by the use of ingredients in novel ways. You can choose between fresh and premade meals, swap your meal choices, and pause or cancel your plan easily.

Ooni basically invented the entire category of portable home pizza ovens; its products are distinguished by their attractiveness, efficacy, and relative affordability—they’re easy to unbox, set up, and use instantly. Almost everything is 20 percent off but two standouts are the Volt 12 (8/10, WIRED Recommends), the compact indoor/outdoor electric oven, and the Karu 2, the updated multi-fuel oven, which I am testing right now. I also love the Halo Pro spiral mixer (8/10, WIRED Recommends) but it’s already sold out.—Adrienne So

Ruggable makes some of the best rugs around, and right now you can save on basically any style and size using the coupon code MEMDAY. Some items are also discounted on Amazon, though they’re a bit cheaper over at Ruggable’s main website. Ruggable is unique because its rugs are machine-washable thanks to a clever Velcro system that makes the patterned area detachable. This also means you can easily swap the appearance of your rugs! They’re stain- and water-resistant, too.

We think Mustard Made storage lockers are excellent products for people that work from home. I reviewed the Mustard Made Lowdown (8/10, WIRED Recommends) and editor Julian Chokkattu has a few different lockers in his home office setup (pictured above). They’re stylish, they’re functional, and they’re pretty easy to put together, complete with video instructions. This sale extends to many different styles in six different colors. It’s also worth noting that this gear basically never gets discounted.

I’m currently in the process of testing this pillow, and so far, it’s been fantastic. I’m a side sleeper that frequently wakes up with neck pain, and this pillow has helped prevent that most nights since I started testing. It’s supportive and helps fill that awkward gap between my head and my shoulder. It’s got a unique rectangular shape, so I recommend adding on the pillow case on the product page. There’s also the cooling Ice Cube pillow that you can get for $72 ($18 off). One thing to note is that this pillow is specifically for side sleepers. If you’re on the hunt for an upgrade, check our Best Pillows guide for additional recommendations.

We like this filtered showerhead, which did an excellent job of removing chlorine from our tester’s water. Hydroviv also says that its filters are “bacteriostatic,” which means it’s difficult for mycobacteria to grow inside the filter. The company recommends a $75 filter replacement every six months, but there’s another deal running that gets you the whole package for $115 if you subscribe to automatic filter replenishment, which takes out a bit of the sting of another expense.

Canopy makes our favorite filtered showerhead. It thoroughly removed chlorine from our tester’s water, and it performs its basic functions well, with an adjustable stream and supremely easy installation and filter replacement. The filters are also relatively inexpensive, at $37 roughly every 3 months. There are even aromatherapy options available for purchase to elevate your shower experience. (Personally I think belting out Destiny’s Child achieves the same effect, but you do you.)

We’ve tested many air fryers, and this is our top pick. It fluctuates in price all the time, but it very rarely drops below $100. It keeps temperature precise and has a generously sized 6-quart basket—big enough for a dozen wings or a couple pounds of French fries. The controls are simple and there’s a viewing window that lets you check on your food without opening the basket, thus dropping the air temperature inside. It also has modes for roasting, dehydrating, broiling, baking, and reheating.

This handy gadget is the best automatic cat feeder for dry food. It’s controlled via an app and has a 5-liter capacity. It’ll automatically dispense food based on whatever schedule you create. There’s also an HD camera with night vision and two-way speaker capabilities (so you can say hello to your pet while they’re eating). You can feed up to six meals per day and dispense snacks as well. While we tested it for cats, it’ll also work for small dogs.

This is our favorite smart bird feeder! It comes with a solar panel, but the version without the solar panel is also on sale for $110 ($90 off). We think it’s worthwhile to fork out the extra cash for the solar panel, since otherwise you’ll have to pull the whole feeder down to recharge it. The feeder is durable and easy to clean. The camera will send smartphone notifications when a bird is feeding, and it has AI recognition that (usually) correctly identifies the species. Note that the AI recognition does require a separate subscription; you can choose to pay for it ahead of time by purchasing that bundle and save some cash in the process.

So here’s the thing about the AeroPress; It either sells for $40, or $30. Snagging it for $32 is about the best discount you’re going to get unless you want to wait until December to get another $2 off. It’s an excellent coffee press that has somewhat of a cult following here on the WIRED Reviews desk (and elsewhere across the internet). You’ll get delicious coffee quickly, and you can tweak your grind, brewing time, filter, and more to dial in the perfect cup.

The All-Clad Factory Seconds Sale is one of the easiest, most reliable ways to save on expensive, excellent All-Clad cookware. You’ll need to enter your email to access the sale. The Factory Seconds products have minor flaws—maybe scuffs, or damaged packaging. Each product details the reasoning for the designation. But you can score some excellent deals, such as this three-piece All-Clad Outdoor Cookware Set for $70 ($110 off). It’s perfect for cookout season and the only flaw is packaging damage. Flat-rate shipping is $10, and even with that cost factored in, this sale is still worth shopping.

Deals on Everything Else

We recommend R+Co products in our guides to heat protectants, dry shampoos, and hair masks. This is an easy way to save if you need to restock. Just make sure to use coupon code SUN. I love R+Co’s eye-catching packaging and pleasant scents, like you get with the On a Cloud Baobob Oil Repair Masque, on sale for $35 ($9 off). That hair mask is hydrating but not heavy, making it great for warmer months when your hair is more likely to get oily. We also like the dry shampoo paste, but stock is fluctuating.

The Away Carry-On Suitcase (9/10, WIRED Recommends) is the best carry-on we’ve tried. (And we’ve tried many such pieces of luggage!) The polycarbonate shell looks sleek and protects your stuff, and the suitcase is available in a wide array of colors, most of which are currently discounted. The suitcase has multiple height settings, a built-in TSA-approved combination lock, and even an included laundry bag. There’s also inner organization and compression, and an underside grab handle for easier maneuvering into the overhead bins. This deal is part of the larger Away Memorial Day Sale, which offers 20 percent off select products. This includes our favorite toiletry bag, which is currently down to $64 ($9 off).

This price matches what we saw during Cyber Monday last year. This little straw filters out bacteria, microplastics, parasites, sand, silt … you name it, and this will probably get rid of it. It’s also super light and durable, and you can even attach it to a water bottle so you don’t need to stoop down to the river to take a drink. It has an unlimited shelf life, making it a popular option for prepping an emergency bag. It can filter over 1,000 gallons of water.

We recommend a few different ShedRain picks in our umbrellas buying guide. All ShedRain umbrellas are automatically 20 percent off right now—the discount will show up in your shopping cart. This option is 20 inches long when closed, but the canopy spans a whopping 50 inches. It’s a bit heavy, but if you want a full-size canopy without a leg-length umbrella to tote around, this is your best bet. It’s also backed by a lifetime warranty.

In an upcoming guide to the best sweatpants, editor Julian Chokkattu says these are his favorite for traveling. The tailored fit helps you look put together, and they’ve held up well over months of testing. They’re stretchy and packable, and the double-knit fabric is comfortable but also retains its shape.

Dagne Dover sale is structured as follows: Orders up to $200 get 20 percent off; Orders over $200 get 25 percent off; Orders over $350 get 30 percent off. We recommend a few different Dagne Dover products, including the Mila bag ($75) in our toiletry bags buying guide, the Petra Convertible Tote ($300) in our tote bags buying guide, and the Sloane Water Bottle Sling ($95) in this rave. I personally like the Extra Large Landon Carryall ($260) for weekend trips where I just want to dump a bunch of stuff in a duffel. Dagne Dover gear is generally reliable and durable, and this is a good way to save if you’ve been eyeing a few pieces.

The Aviron Victory Treadmill (8/10, WIRED Recommends) makes running fun. The screen provides access to games or shows, and the deck is nice and low so it’s easy to step on and off. The membership that gets you access to the fun content costs $29 a month or $288 per year, and there are also $299 loadable weights to add strength training to your cardio routine. But if you’re okay with the yearly costs, this is a good option for making home workouts more enticing. Check our guide to the Best Treadmills for more.
