Best Apple deal

Apple MacBook Air, 15-inch (M4, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD) 🔥
$979 at Amazon
$1,199 Save $220

Why we picked this

"Apple's M4 MacBook Air is a sleek speed demon: In our CPU benchmark, it outperformed 89% of the models in our laptop testing database. It doesn't look all that different from older MacBooks with M-something chips, but its upgraded 12MP Center Stage camera was a welcome upgrade to our reviewer.

I think the 15-inch model is the best pick for most people, and right now, Amazon has the 256GB base configuration on sale for just $979 in sky blue (normally $1,199). That's a new record low — it was $20 pricier on the first day of Prime Big Deal Days. If it sells out there, Best Buy's managed to match it." — Haley Henschel, Senior Shopping Reporter

Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones
$299 at Amazon
$429 Save $130

Why we picked this

"The first-generation QuietComfort Ultras are our current favorite noise-canceling headphones and some of the comfiest cans we've ever tried. Bose recently announced their successors ($449), which offer USB-C audio support, adjustable ANC, and a better battery life, but the originals remain a competitive buy at their current price of $299 (or $150 less) in the limited-edition dark plum colorway." — Haley Henschel, Senior Shopping Reporter

Microsoft Surface Laptop 7, 13.8-inch (Snapdragon X Elite, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD)
$919.99 at Amazon
$1,399.99 Save $480

Why we like it

"The 13.8-inch Surface Laptop 7 with a Snapdragon X Elite chip is our favorite Windows laptop for most people. It's beautiful, it's about as fast as an M4 MacBook Air, and it lasts for nearly 23 hours on a single charge — that's two longer than the M4 Pro-powered MacBook Pro, the longest-lasting MacBook we've tried. The dune variant with 16GB of memory and 512GB of storage is marked down to $919.99 for Prime Big Deal Days (or 34% off) — its best price ever." — Haley Henschel, Senior Shopping Reporter

$369.99 at Amazon
$649.99 Save $280

Why we like it

"This 75-inch Insignia TV just hit a new all-time low of $399.99, which is a 38% savings. If you've never had a QLED TV before, it's a great low-stakes opportunity to upgrade. As a budget QLED, you can't expect this model to stun in HDR like a premium Samsung QLED would. But compared to your old LED TV, you'll quickly see the difference those quantum dots are making — they'll especially pop when watching football in the daytime." — Leah Stodart, Senior Shopping Reporter

Why we like it

"The biggest perk to the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition is its ad-free lock screen. Usually, I don't think it's worth the extra money, but with this record discount, I think it's an incredible value. For $149.99, you'll enjoy auto-adjusting brightness, 12 weeks of battery, wireless charging, and 32GB of storage." — Samantha Mangino, Shopping Reporter

Why we picked this

"There's no way around it: A shit ton of people are going to buy AirPods this October Prime Day. But for those who aren't married to Apple's earbuds (or how often they seem to break), just know that the latest version of Amazon's Echo Buds with ANC are just $34.99 after a 71% discount. That beats their Prime Day price from July by $10, and you could get four pairs of Echo Buds for less than the $169.99 sale price of the AirPods Pro 2." — Leah Stodart, Senior Shopping Reporter

Why we picked this

"When it comes to robot vacuums, I always turn to Mashable's in-house robot vacuum expert, Leah Stodart. When I asked her about these deals, she pointed out that iRobot marked down the Roomba Plus 405 to $379.99 (a new record low), making it one of the most affordable combo robot vacuums and mops. Plus, its dock not only empties the vacuum, but even cleans the mopping pads for a truly hands-free experience." — Samantha Mangino, Shopping Reporter

Why we picked this

"The Garmin vívoactive 5 was recently replaced as the newest model by the vívoactive 6, but the 5 still holds a special place in our hearts. This is what we'd call a perfect all-rounder fitness tracker, perfect for tracking long runs and cycles while also still having a great range of lifestyle features like sleep tracking, stress levels, and body battery. It's also a vast improvement over the vívoactive 4, and even has a bright AMOLED display, making it appear even more high-tech." — Lois Mackenzie, Mashable contributor

"Ninja makes some of our favorite kitchen appliances, and the Foodi line is a standout in the brand's countertop lineup. This indoor grill lets you easily make burgers, steaks, chops, and other meat dishes when you don't feel like grilling, and it comes with a built-in meat thermometer." — Timothy Beck Werth, Tech Editor

An always-reliable Prime Day deal is Crest Whitestrips, and once again, they're on a great discount before we head into October's sale.

Why we like it

"If you were using Prime Day as an excuse to finally buy the Shark CryoGlow or Shark FlexFusion, don't stress yourself out by choosing between them. Simply get both. Amazon has revived its July Prime Day bundle featuring the Shark CryoGlow red light mask and Shark FlexFusion hair styler, getting you both for $499.99. That's essentially scoring the unique wet and dry hair styler and the best red light mask on the market for $249.99 each — they regularly cost $349.99 each when purchased separately." — Leah Stodart, Senior Shopping Reporter

"A portable power station is one of the most useful items you can buy for your home this year. They've seen major advancements in both battery technology and user-friendliness recently, and the Anker Solix C1000 portable power station is a standout model. It's an ideal combination of power (1,056Wh), plenty of ports, and it's on sale for Prime Day for $379, which is the lowest price Amazon has ever offered." — Lauren Allain, Mashable contributor

DJI Mic Mini (2 TX + 1 RX), Detail-Rich Audio, Wireless Lavalier Microphone for Camera/Android, 2-Person Vlog, Team Production
DJI Mic Mini
$79 at Amazon
$119 Save $40

Why we like it

The DJI Mic Mini is one of the best upgrades for content creators looking to up their audio game — with two transmitters, a receiver with level controls, a charging case, companion app, clip magnets, and four windscreens, this pocket mic comes with all the essentials — and it sounds great. Mashable's Bethany Allard wrote with her experience using the mic that it "offers a lot of versatility, and for a great value. That makes it a solid option for making vlogs and TikToks, and for anyone who feels less than confident with their tech skills — once I plugged the receiver into my phone, the mics connected easily and started working with the camera app automatically."
