Amazon’s annual sales event might be entering its final day, but there are still plenty of earbuds, TVs, robot vacuums, and other gems to go around.

We won’t sugarcoat it: most Prime Day deals aren’t all that exciting. Amazon has a knack for running perpetual sales and advertising deep discounts, some of which aren’t all that different than what you might see throughout the rest of the year. The good news is that there are still plenty of gadgets and gizmos worth shelling out for, the bulk of which we expect to stick around until midnight tonight (fingers crossed).

Below, you’ll find the very best deals spotted by The Verge’s crack team of curators. There are smart home gadgets aplenty, gaming gear galore, and a whole lot more — including headphones, smartwatches, and a surplus of home theater equipment. We’re even seeing new low prices on some of the other fun favorites our staffers like, from oceanic board games to electric kettles. You can find all of that and more in our comprehensive Prime Day guide.

Don’t forget to sign up for a Prime subscription if you aren’t already a member. It’s a requirement to access Prime-specific deals. You can get a free 30-day trial if you’ve never signed up, which is more than enough time to shop the sale and take advantage of the membership’s deep bucket of benefits. Just watch out for that pesky autorenewal.

The best Prime Day deals on headphones and earbuds

  • The Beats Studio Pro are down to $169.95 (a massive $180 off) at Amazon. The noise-canceling headphones may have a slightly outdated look (they look like many prior sets of Beats), but they’re an excellent value if you want flexibility across Android and iOS. Read our review.
  • The Beats Studio Buds are still a serviceable pair of noise-canceling earbuds even if they’re a few years old since they’re just $79.95 ($70 off) at Amazon. Just keep in mind that the newer Studio Buds Plus have a variety of improvements and an even more fun seethrough design for $129.95 ($40 off).
  • Google’s Pixel Buds A-Series are selling for their usual all-time low of $69 ($30 off) at Amazon. They’re a little long in the tooth for a midrange pair of wireless earbuds, but they remain a great low-cost option for Pixel phone owners. Read our review.
  • Amazon is selling the Echo Buds with Active Noise Cancellation with a wired charging case for $34.99 ($85 off) or a wireless charging case for $44.99 ($95 off). It’s hard to beat the value of these ANC buds, even if other models have better noise cancellation. Read our review.
  • The donut-shaped Sony LinkBuds are selling for $128 ($50 off) at Amazon, matching the best price we’ve seen on the open-style earbuds. Their unique design offers a comfy fit that allows outside noise in, helping keep you aware of your surroundings. Read our review.
  • If you don’t need a cutting-edge pair of headphones, it’s hard to deny how good Sony’s WH-1000XM4 still sound, especially when you can grab them at Amazon for $198 ($150 off). Plus, unlike the newer XM5 that has usurped them, the older XM4 fold down for more convenient storage and travel. Read our review.
  • Are you on a tighter budget but still want some noise-canceling headphones? Check out the Sony WH-CH720N, which are selling for $88 (about $61 off) at Amazon. They’re not as fancy as the pricier XM models, but they have up to 35 hours of battery life and weigh just 192 grams.

The kid-friendly editions are often the low-key best value for a Kindle when they go on sale, especially since this incarnation of the 6.8-inch e-reader doesn’t have ads and includes a case and an extended warranty.
