Still going strong! Salute these stellar extended Presidents' Day tech deals on Beats, Apple, LG and more

If you want to save a little on an Apple wearable, the Series 10 is still 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."

For Apple fans, these No. 1 bestsellers are a must-have upgrade. They're dust, sweat and water resistant, so no worries about getting caught in a downpour during your morning run. Seamless connection with all your Apple devices makes switching between your iPhone, iPad and Mac a breeze. The battery gives you up to six hours of listening time per charge — and up to 30 hours with the charging case. 

Sit back and let this robot vacuum do your dirty work for you. It can run for 120 minutes before charging and is slim enough to glide under sofas. It's also virtually silent in its regular cleaning mode. Control all the action from the Lefant app, Google Assistant or Alexa.

"Very quiet. Picks up a lot. Better than my Roomba," said one impressed customer. "I have two dogs and two cats, [so it] picks up a lot of fur. My floors are finally clean."

Listen up: Our senior tech writer, Rick Broida, has spent the past two decades testing (and testing, and re-testing) hundreds of earbuds. So, when he's surprised by just how good a $40 pair performs, you need to check them out ASAP. When he tested some of the best earbuds on the market, he named this pair the best budget option, praising their sound quality and noise-canceling abilities. And this wallet-friendly option just got even more budget-friendly, currently down to $20 — the lowest we've ever seen them.

Whether you'd like to drown out the sound of your neighbor's bagpipe lessons or the roar of the garbage truck as it comes down your block, these noise-cancelling earbuds have you covered. Boasting up to 24 hours of listening time, they offer a top-tier listening experience and even offer an IPX4 waterproof rating, in case your workouts get extra sweaty. 

This Shark might be smart, but grabbing it for 45% off is a certified genius move. 

This is your chance to grab a Fitbit for less — a lot less! This is the lowest we've seen the FitBit Versa 4 go. (FYI, the fitness trackers didn't even go on sale during the last Prime Day.) Use it to track your heart rate, steps, quality of sleep, calories and more. And the battery lasts for six days or more.

"Use it constantly, worth every penny," said one user. "The charge lasts over a week and it gives a low battery warning at 35%, meaning it never dies unexpectedly in the middle of the day. It's definitely waterproof (wear it in the pool or shower all you want). Sometimes I have some trouble getting the GPS to work, but strangely only for biking. Loved it enough that I also bought my husband one and he uses it even more than I do."

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. 

Unlike the model above, these AirPods feature active noise cancellation to block out nearly all ambient sound and background chatter. It's a remarkable sensation. The first time I put them in my ears and turned on ANC, I was amazed at how well it worked.

Just like the model above, these are currently at the lowest price they've ever been.

Need a new Apple Watch? The SE is $50 off. It offers 18 hours of battery life, and you can use it to count steps, track workouts, send texts, detect falls and more. It will alert you if your heart rate is low, high or irregular and send you a notification when your cardio is low for the day (time to get moving!).

"Its sleek, lightweight design makes it easy to wear all day," said one shopper. "The interface is intuitive, and navigating apps and features is a breeze. Since I’ve had it, I honestly can't imagine going without it. It keeps me connected, tracks my fitness, and helps me stay organized easily."

These AirPods came out in September 2024, and while they look like the original AirPods, they have a few more functions. First of all, they offer personalized spatial audio with dynamic head tracking, so your tunes sound great no matter how you move. They also offer up to 30 hours of battery life with the included charging case. And, of course, they have thousands of five-star ratings, thanks to their clear, rich sound quality and convenient cord-free design that makes them easy to use and connect to any of your other Apple devices.

"I had no idea how much Apple had improved the sound quality on the AirPods. I had my old ones for about four years and decided to upgrade and I'm so happy I did," explained one buyer. "I feel like I just received a brand new set of ears. Absolutely stunning sound and technology. Well worth the price and so easy to set up!"

These earbuds have been my go-to for everything from trail running in the mountains to gym sessions and catching up on my latest podcasts while doing dishes. With adaptive noise cancellation that cuts out up to 98% of background noise, they're perfect for staying in the zone wherever I am. The battery life is incredible — up to 10 hours on a single charge and a whopping 50 hours with the case. They deliver high-quality sound that keeps me motivated, and the comfortable fit means they stay put through any activity.

My favorite feature? The fast-charging. A quick 10-minute charge gives me four hours of listening time, so I never have to worry about forgetting to plug them in overnight.

These Sony headphones aren't just any old pair of cans — they're the No. 1 bestselling over-ear headphones on Amazon. With top-tier noise-canceling tech, they let you block out the world and dive into your music, podcasts or calls with clarity.

They boast a solid 30 hours of battery life as well as quick charging (a 10-minute charge will get you five hours of playback), so you won’t be hunting for an outlet mid-listen. And with touch-sensor controls, adjusting volume or skipping tracks is as easy as a tap.

These open earbuds bring a fresh twist to wireless audio with an open-ear design that keeps you connected to your surroundings — ideal for runners and outdoor enthusiasts. Despite the no-tip design, they deliver rich sound, while the comfortable fit makes them perfect for all-day wear. They’re built to withstand sweat and rain, so workouts and unexpected weather are no problem. Plus, the battery life is a solid 7 hours, ensuring they last through your day. If you’re looking for earbuds that deliver quality sound without shutting out the world, these are the ones for you.

Can’t choose between a tablet and a laptop? Why not have both? This powerhouse is packed with a 13th Gen Intel Core i7 Processor, 32GB of RAM and a spacious 1TB SSD, delivering top-tier performance whether you use it for work, school or at home. Use it as a tablet or a laptop — it’s versatility at its best. The matte screen ensures glare-free productivity outdoors, while USB-C/Thunderbolt ports, a micro SD card reader and a stylus make it as functional as it is flexible. And at less than 3.5 pounds, it's easy to take with you, whether your commute is minutes or hours.

The MacBook Air is fantastic, but sometimes you need a little extra muscle for editing photos or videos. That’s where the Pro shines. Having used a MacBook Pro for nearly two decades to edit 4K videos on the go, I can confidently say it’s a powerhouse that handles just about anything you throw at it — especially this model with its advanced M4 chip. And while it might lack the "Air" branding, this 14-inch version is surprisingly portable, tipping the scales at just under 3.5 pounds.

This midrange option sports several appealing features, which are all the more appealing given its $280 price tag. While we have seen this laptop go a bit lower, this is still a great deal. It's got enough storage and RAM for basic use and, though its 128GB of storage suggests a flash drive might be a wise purchase, it's still a terrific choice for a student or someone who wants a laptop for day-to-day use.

Senior Tech Writer Rick Broida named it one of Yahoo's best laptops of 2024, saying it "should handle most mainstream computing tasks with no trouble."

If you're in the market for a versatile gaming laptop that won't break the bank, the HP Victus can handle almost any modern game on at least medium settings. The high refresh rate makes it a great option for esports titles like League of Legends or Overwatch, and it has a large enough drive to store multiple games at once. 

Gaming laptops are notoriously expensive (and pretty niche), but this one strikes a fine balance between price and performance.

Want a powerful tablet without paying the mind-boggling $1,000-plus smackeroos for an iPad Pro? The Air is a good bet, experts say.

If they're all about getting their steps in or want to get more active, give them some motivation with this Fitbit. I've used this one myself, and I love that it helps you stay on task without being confusing or intrusive. You can see your heart rate, try fitness tools straight from your wrist, track your steps and more. Unlike other Fitbits, this one comes packed with Google apps like Maps and Wallet, making it a great sidekick for more than working out.

These Oprah faves feature one-touch pairing, up to 40 total hours of battery life and fast-charging capabilities. If you want them at this low price, don't press pause.

Says a five-star reviewer: "These are some of the comfiest headphones ever! I could live in these puppies. They are nice and big, cover my ears and they don't squish or hurt them like some headphones do. And they're really light, which is super nice."

Need to keep track of your wallet? A pet? Luggage? Car keys? This set of four gives you more bang for your buck than buying AirTags individually (you'll pay $18 a pop versus $24). Score them now while they're priced within a couple bucks of their all-time low. You don't know you need these until you get them — and then you'll wonder how you ever managed without them.

Proof that we live in a golden age of electronics pricing. Ten years ago I paid this much for my first 4K TV, a 43-inch model that didn't offer much in the way of features. This one is four times the size and has active HDR and Alexa built-in. Good times! 

Want to streamline your streaming experience? This Roku stick will have you flipping through Netflix, Disney+, Hulu and more, seamlessly. With 4K resolution and Dolby Vision, your viewing experience will be a crisp, vivid one, and it's compatible with voice-control programs like Siri and Alexa. It's rarely on sale for less than this, folks. 

"This stick is inexpensive enough to use with a not-too-smart TV to get a taste of streaming services," wrote one shopper. "It's also handy to have when weather and/or tree foliage blocks the satellite dish. It plugs directly into an HDMI port and is powered by the set's USB, so no other cables/power packs are needed."

While this MacBook Air isn't the newest and best by any means, for those looking for a super lightweight, portable way to get into the Apple ecosystem and only need their machine for light tasks (think streaming, writing, browsing the web), you won't find a better price.

If you're an old-school audiophile, Apple's OG EarPods are on sale for just $16, a record low! These come with a built-in remote to control music, phone calls and volume. 

"These are perfect for calls and Zoom meetings because they never run out of battery and have the best microphone," a five-star reviewer wrote.

If you've been eyeing the MacBook Air but want a bit more screen to work with, the 15-inch model might just be your sweet spot. It takes everything you love about the 13-inch version and supersizes it, giving you more room to get things done, making multitasking, streaming and even photo editing way more engaging. And thanks to an upgraded six-speaker system with force-cancelling woofers, the sound quality gets a nice bump, too.

Even with the extra screen real estate, the 15-inch Air keeps that trademark slim, lightweight feel. Not surprisingly, its battery life is longer than the 13-inch's, and the price jump is pretty reasonable, considering what you’re getting in return.

When it comes to a deal on an everyday Windows laptop, this Surface is worth a look. It’s faster than the MacBook Air M3, has a stunning 13.8” touchscreen for added versatility and offers up to 20 hours of battery life — perfect for long days without a charger. Plus, it’s super lightweight with a premium aluminum design that looks and feels high-end.

This streaming device is as simple as it gets — just plug it in and you’re streaming all your favorite apps in no time. It’s perfect for anyone who wants an affordable, no-frills way to upgrade an older TV without spending a fortune.

One of my favorite family vacations growing up was a trip out west to Yellowstone National Park. When we got to the hotel, my sister and I were horrified to find there was no TV in the room (this was long before smartphones and tablets). That week, my family went to nighttime ranger talks, learned how to play euchre and stayed up late staring at the stars — all things we probably wouldn't have done if we were inside watching Cartoon Network every night.

That said, there are places — like the middle of Iowa or Nebraska — where you're just stopping to rest. In those spots, it's nice to have a streaming device. On a recent trip to Arches and Canyonlands with my daughter, we spent every morning eating breakfast and watching an episode of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse together. It was perfection.

How do we love this set? Let us count the ways: 4K resolution. Access to upwards of 1 million movies and TV episodes via the streaming world's heavy hitters. Upscaling capability. 43-inch screen. Under $200 price tag. Oh, and 5,000+ of these have been sold in the past month. 

Take it from this fan: "Hands down best TV I've purchased in the last decade." 

Think all QLED is the same? Think again. Samsung's Mini-LED tech, featured in its Neo QLED models, takes backlighting to the next level. Unlike standard QLED, Mini-LEDs deliver precise control over brightness zones, which means you get sharper contrast and deeper black levels. This setup lets you enjoy vibrant colors and impressive detail, even in darker scenes. If you're after a TV that can handle both bright and dimly lit rooms with ease, Neo QLED's Mini-LED is the way to go.

These over-the-ears feature 22 hours of playback with ANC on and a whopping 40 hours of playback with it off. Forget to charge them? No problem. With the Fast Fuel feature, a 10-minute charge gives you three hours of playback.

These widely compatible smart plugs work with almost all smart-home services outside of HomeKit (and even that can be configured through IFTTT), but the true selling point is the fact that you get four for just $20. That's less than $5 per plug — an absolute steal with how useful these little gadgets actually are. 

This thermostat is more than just an easy way to control the temperature in your home. It learns your preferences and will begin to adjust accordingly.
