Best Apple deal
Why we like it
Read Mashable’s full review of the 13-inch Apple MacBook Air (M2).
“The 13-inch MacBook Air from mid-2022 is a Mashable Choice Award winner that combines “[rock]-solid battery life” with “a keyboard that’s to die for, and enough horsepower to handle everyday tasks with ease,” wrote tech and games reporter Alex Perry. It’s our current favorite ‘budget’ MacBook, and it’s now cheaper than ever before.
You can snag the base configuration with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage for $749, or $250 off its $999 MSRP. If it sells out on Amazon, check Best Buy: It was matching the deal at the time of writing.” — Haley Henschel, Senior Shopping Reporter

Best Amazon deal
Why we like it
Amazon Music Unlimited provides unrestricted access to millions of songs and thousands of playlists, all without any adverts. Users can stream and download their favorite tracks with unlimited skips and explore a vast selection of podcasts. And Amazon Music Unlimited now offers an exceptional audio experience thanks to HD and spatial audio options.
That’s a lot of benefits to get for absolutely nothing, but this deal really doesn’t come with a catch.

Why we like it
Read Mashable’s full review of the 13-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop 7.
“This upgraded configuration of the new Surface Laptop 7 features a Snapdragon X Elite processor with 32GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. With M3 Macbook-beating performance, a battery life of just under 23 hours, and some new AI-powered features that ‘make Windows fun again,’ per tech editor Kim Gedeon, it’s easily the best laptop we’ve tried so far in 2024. Just make sure you won’t into any app compatibility issues with Windows on ARM.
It usually retails for $1,999.99, but Amazon has it on sale for $1,699.99 during Prime Big Deal Days — a new record low. Note that it was price-matched at Best Buy and in the Microsoft Store at the time of writing.” — Haley Henschel, Senior Shopping Reporter

Why we like it
Audiophiles will absolutely love these headphones. Major IV headphones deliver that signature Marshall sound that dedicated followers love. Custom-tuned dynamic drivers deliver roaring bass, smooth mids, and brilliant treble for a rich sound that competing headphones can only dream of providing. Users also get over 80 hours of wireless playtime with quick-charge capability, so they are efficient with that quality sound, as well.

Best Bluetooth speaker deal
Why we like it
“Maybe your Bluetooth speaker kicked the dust this summer after one too many pool parties. If you find yourself in the market for a new one, Prime Day is an especially great time to hit add to cart.
If you need a speaker for a party, the JBL PartyBox is just that. Despite its large size, the shoulder strap makes it easy to carry. Plus, six hours of battery life keeps it running all night long. Built-in lights and a microphone really keep things turning up all night long.
This Prime Day, you can find the JBL PartyBox down to $299.95, saving $50 for 14% off.” — Samantha Mangino, Shopping Reporter

Best TV deal
Why we like it
“Who says you need to spend a grand to get a nice (and decently sized) 4K TV? With the 35% discount that Amazon slapped on the 55-inch version of its most affordable Fire TV, Prime members could actually get one for two different rooms for way less than $1,000.
As Amazon’s most basic in-house Fire TV, the 4-Series would be best suited for people who aren’t super picky about saturation or brightness levels as long as it’s a step up from their old LED TV — and this definitely will be. With the intuitive Fire TV platform built-in, the 4-Series can access all of your favorite streaming apps, which you can arrange in whatever layout makes sense to you.” — Leah Stodart, Senior Shopping Reporter

Best streaming deal
Why we like it
Is the Amazon Fire Stick 4K the best streamer we’ve ever tested? No, Roku takes the cake there. However, it still works perfectly fine, and not to mention, it’s hard to turn away from its delightful $30 price tag on Prime Day. Having tested the Amazon Fire Stick TV, set-up is easy, as simple as plugging it into an HDMI port in the back of your TV.
While the home screen is a little clunky and slow, full of ads and promotions for Prime Video content, it is a dream for those who primarily stream on the site. The Amazon Fire Stick 4K is down to $24.99, saving you $25 and 50% off.

Best gaming deal
“The Razer BlackWidow V3 Mini is a high-end gaming keyboard that’s going for under $100 on Prime Big Deal Days (usually $199.99). The low-profile keyboard features wireless support, a lengthy battery life, and some of the best RGB customization in the business. If you’re serious about PC gaming but don’t have a lot of desk space, this gaming keyboard is the way to go, and it’s an absolute steal at the moment.” — Dylan Haas, Lead Shopping Reporter

Best board game deal
Why we like it
“Catan is a classic strategy game that’s perfect for families and game nights. And, at almost 50% off — down to just $32.99 — it’s a steal. (You can get the five-to-six-player extension for $27.21). In this game, you’ll need to collect resources, settle the land, and trade with other players to build the biggest settlements. If you like any of the digital empire-building games, Catan is a great tabletop version that requires tight strategy, some luck, and a good dose of diplomacy to win.” — Tabitha Britt, Mashable Shopping Contributor

Best drone deal
Why we like it
“If you’re really into drones, the name Holy Stone should be on your radar. This brand is known for making high-end drones that are feature-packed and, at times, super affordable.
The HS175D RC Quadcopter is currently $169.999 at Amazon, which is [$100 off its true MSRP on the Holy Stone website. (Amazon’s list price is deflated.)] It’s a solid mid-range drone option that shoots 4K videos, has a 46-minute flight time, and a special flight mode where you can direct its movement — whether you want it to follow you or fly along a specific path.” — Tabitha Britt, Mashable Shopping Contributor

Best robot vacuum deal
Why we like it
“Ecovacs wasn’t lying when it came up with the term ‘all-in-one cleaning hub’ here, considering that this robot vacuum not only empties itself and washes and dries its own mopping pads, but also has another sweet feature tacked onto the dock: a handheld cordless vacuum. If your main hesitation with robot vacuums was that they can’t scale a staircase, sweep under couch cushions, or detail corners up to your standards, this is the one robot vacuum purchase that can — now for well under $1,000.” — Leah Stodart, Senior Shopping Reporter

Best Dyson vacuum deal
Why we like it
“The Dyson V8 Plus cordless vacuum (silver/nickel) is lightweight and powerful and can handle most daily cleaning tasks. It has a detachable wand for cleaning stairs, upholstery, and hard-to-reach areas, and it converts to a handheld vac for quick cleanups. It comes with four accessories, including a hair screw tool for pet hair.
With a runtime of up to 40 minutes on a single charge, this little vac is ideal for small apartments and quick cleanups.
You can get it at Amazon for just $299.99 in a Big Prime Deal (originally $469.99). It’s out of stock at Dyson.” — Tabitha Britt, Mashable Shopping Contributor

Why we like it
“Ideal for smaller wrists, the Garmin Venu 3S is about .2 inches smaller in diameter and .3 oz lighter than the standard Venu 3. It still offers the same advanced features, like a built-in speaker and microphone to take calls, the ability to store music, and an abundance of health and fitness tools and insights. The only real difference besides the size is that the 3S has a slightly shorter battery life (about 10 days in smartwatch mode versus the 3’s 14 days), but it still blows the Apple Watch battery out of the water. It’s usually $449.99, but you can save $55 during the October Prime event and get it for only $395. That’s a new all-time low.” — Christina Buff, Mashable Shopping Contributor

Mashable’s Bethany Allard has spent a lot of time with the Dyson Supersonic, assessing its performance and value. While Allard commends the hair dryer for its lightweight design, quick drying, and user-friendliness, its downfall comes with its $429.99 price tag.
During Prime Big Deal Days, the Dyson Supersonic was listed for $329.99, $100 off the usual price. Included with the hair dryer are several magnetic attachments including a diffuser, styling concentrator, flyaway attachment, gentle air attachment, and a wide tooth comb attachment. Unfortunately, this deal is no longer available at Amazon or alternative retailers, but Walmart has refurbished models for $239.99.

“If you only need a single security camera, the TP-Link Tapo MagCam is a reliable choice. While we haven’t had the chance to test it out, our friends at PCMag (owned by Mashable’s publisher, Ziff Davis) have done the honor and awarded it a 4.5 outstanding rating. ‘It’s an excellent value for a battery-powered camera that offers color night vision, built-in spotlights, local and cloud storage options, free intelligent alerts, voice control, and many other features,’ the review states, all of which earned the camera an Editors’ Choice award. The TP-Link Tapo MagCam security camera usually sells for $119.99, but during Prime Big Deal Days, the camera is down to an all-time low of $59.99, according to Amazon price history. Just be sure to select the on-page coupon before adding it to your cart.” — Christina Buff, Mashable Shopping Contributor

Best Samsung Galaxy deal
Why we like it
“Samsung’s Galaxy A35 is a ‘strong buy for the price,’ as our friends at PCMag (also owned by Ziff Davis) said in their review. The budget-friendly Galaxy phone was released as a more affordable alternative to the Galaxy S24. As a budget phone, it doesn’t offer the same speed and performance as the S24, but it also doesn’t cost over $1,000. It packs a gorgeous 6.6-inch display, Samsung’s Exynos 1380 processor, a 50 MP wide-angle camera with optical image stabilization, and a long-lasting 5,000mAh battery that supports fast charging. It’s not the most impressive phone on the market, but on sale for [under $300], it’s a pretty hard deal to beat.” — Christina Buff, Mashable Shopping Contributor

“Noise-cancelling headphones can easily cost a couple hundred bucks, even on sale. When I tested noise-cancelling headphones to determine which were the best for travel, I found that the Anker Soundcore Life Q20 headphones already offered a pretty good value, even at their full price of $59.99 (and frequently discounted price of $49.99).
At nearly $40 flat, these are a steal. I was able to wear them comfortably for long periods of time, and get plenty of battery life off a single charge. Their ANC can hiss a little, but it also does a pretty good job of blocking out atmospheric sounds, and for $40, you really can’t complain.” — Bethany Allard, Lead Shopping Reporter

“Have you ever heard the crash of a YETI Rambler as it connects with concrete as you drive down the street, blissfully unaware you left it on top of your car? I assure you, it’s very loud. So loud, in fact, I expected my water bottle to be too damaged to use — I know a HydroFlask wouldn’t have survived that fall. But when I circled back to collect my YETI from the middle of the road, the bottle had one small scratch, and one small dent, and two years later, is still perfectly usable. What I’m saying is, if you want a water bottle that’s built to last, a YETI Rambler is a pretty good bet.” — Bethany Allard, Lead Shopping Reporter
