If you have a little more to spend on an Apple wearable, the Series 10 is worth the investment. It boasts an always-on Retina display and comes with useful features like ECG apps, a fitness tracker and more. And while the Series 11 has just been released, it sports the same processor, same design and nearly all of the same features. In other words, you're getting the bulk of the 2025 Apple Watch here, but at the 2024 discount.
"I upgraded from a Series 5," said this watch wearer. "The battery life is phenomenal, I can literally go two days without charging. When I do have to charge it, it's full in about 30 minutes. The price is on par for the quality. The health sensors are nice. I know I have sleep apnea and never got around to taking care of it. The watch notified me after about a month of use and provides data to bring in to the doctor's office."
Thanks to AirTags, I can track my bags from drop-off to the plane to the luggage carousel. And even when the worst happens, and my bags end up in Orlando when I'm in Michigan (true story), I know where they are and how to find them.
"First, we bought one Apple AirTag for my husband's wallet. Then we bought a second one for his car keys," said this repeat buyer. "Now, we have a four-pack, which is cheaper, for our golf bags and checked roller bags."
If you don't like that feeling of having something wedged in your ear and don't need active noise cancellation, these buds are the way to go. How are they different from the previous generation? The shorter stem gives them a cleaner look, and the new quick-press controls mean no more fumbling to pause your tunes or take a call. Plus, they fit better and stay put, so you won't have to keep adjusting them while you're at the gym or running to catch the train.
"I decided to upgrade from my AirPods 2 and I'm impressed!" a happy listener wrote. "Sound quality is great! Wow! They don't feel like they're going to fall out of my ears and [are] very comfortable."
Imagine this: You're stopped at a red light when the car in front of you starts to back up. Before you have time to think, let alone drive away, bam! They hit your car, but claim you rear-ended them. Unfortunately, these kinds of insurance scams happen all too often, and unless you have a dash cam that shows what actually happened, you might be shelling out a lot of dough to make this problem go away. Fortunately, high-quality dash cams don't have to cost an arm and a leg: For instance, this dash cam is on sale for its lowest-ever price thanks to this lightning deal.
All-time-low-price alert! If you prefer headphones to earbuds, this is a deal worth considering. "Expect rich, balanced audio with clear highs and punchy bass that’ll make your playlists pop," says Senior Deals Writer Chris McGraw, who specializes in all things tech. "They pair seamlessly with Apple devices, offer up to 40 hours of battery life and are as portable as they are comfortable, making them perfect for life on the go."
Planning any road trips? This popular power station is an absolute steal at nearly $400 off. With a massive 1,070 watt-hour capacity and multiple ports, it's perfect for powering everything from your camping gear to essential appliances during a power outage, and this is the best price I've seen in marked down to months.
Ready for some Apple picking? Yes, we realize it's not fall, but you'll want to pluck this bad boy from the ol' Amazon tree and add it to your cart because it's currently down to its all-time lowest price — and this is the most recent version! As the unofficial Goldilocks of tech (less bulky than a laptop but larger than a smartphone), this tablet keeps you connected on the go or at home, and you can use it for everything from reading books to taking notes to watching videos.
Broida named this the "best overall tablet," owing to its "under-the-hood improvements, including a faster processor, more RAM (4GB instead of 3GB), Bluetooth 5.0 (up from 4.2) and a USB-C charging port."
Check out his roundup of the best tablets of 2024 for a full review.
This portable speaker looks as good poolside as it does on the shelf. Plug it in and it'll even play lossless audio.
This hue is actually called Statement Red, and it's perfect for the significant other who Just. Doesn't. Listen. Har.
At just $100, the Beats Pill is a steal. Beats gear rarely sees this kind of discount, so if you’ve been eyeing one, now’s the time to grab it.
Not all speakers are created equal. The Pill isn't just louder; it delivers richer, deeper, room-filling sound than other comparable models. How? A larger woofer and redesigned tweeter move more air, bringing out the bass while keeping every note crisp, no matter the frequency. Speaking of clean audio: Audiophiles can skip Bluetooth altogether and plug in with a USB-C cable for lossless, high-resolution sound. You can even pair two Pills and listen in stereo.
The best part about the Beats Pill, in my opinion, is its portability and 24-hour battery life. Is your phone running low on battery from playing music all day? No problem. In addition to playing music, the Pill can charge your cell. You can also take calls and talk to Siri.
Oh, and it looks great too ... which makes it all the more attractive that the Pill is on sale in all colors: Matte Black, Statement Red, Champagne Gold, Dark Gray and Light Gray.
This little speaker has more than 800 five-star reviews. That's a lot of people singing its praises, including folks who rave about the sound quality, especially now that it's 33% off.
The design is great, and the sound is awesome," praised one five-star reviewer who couldn't stop raving about the sound. "The sound stage is huge, and this speaker is *loud*. And even at higher volume, the sound is clean and not distorted. The acoustic details are nice, the highs are crisp, and the basses are strong and solid."
The same happy customer compared the Pill to their other wireless speakers, confirming that they are, in fact, a true audiophile. "This new Beats Pill is a direct competitor to Bose Soundlink Flex, JBL Charge 5, Sono Move etc.... This new Pill is as good, if not better than all these competitors, and is cheaper than all of them!"
Another five-star user called their Beats Pill use case as "boring" and then described it in the same exact way as I use my speakers, so I'm not sure if I should be offended. "I use it in boring ways, at my desk, in the kitchen during chores, doing yoga - and it just shines, filling the room with music."
"I was expecting this Beats Pill... to be similar or the same size of my beloved (not working anymore) original Beats Pill 2.0; but to my disappointment, this new Beats Pill... is much larger than the original one," cautioned a long-time Pill owner who still gave the speaker a five-star rating. "This new one has a diameter of 2.8in vs the original one is only approximately 1.8in. So the length is 1in longer, the diameter is 1in larger, the whole thing is much beefier, almost 2.5 times heavier."
A final critique came from a four-star reviewer. "Overall really love this speaker. It sounds so good for its size and has an amazing sound quality that's crisp and clear. Only negative I have found is that it's slightly hard to turn off the speaker sometimes."
