Aurzen’s tiny trifold projector is almost 40 percent off right now

2026-05-01T13:43:13-04:00

Not all trifolds are created equal — just ask our own Allison Johnson, who recently spent time with Samsung’s ill-fated Galaxy phone. Aurzen’s Zip projector is the kind of trifold gadget we can fully get behind, though, and it’s currently on sale at Amazon for $259.99 ($140 off). You can also pick it up in several colors directly from Aurzen for the same price, or in the gold shade for a new low of $249.99.

Aurzen Zip Tri-Fold Portable Mini Projector

Where to Buy:

While not nearly as powerful as Anker’s Nebula P1 and other portable projectors we’ve recently tested, the Zip is surprisingly capable despite its small stature and battery-powered operation. The snake-like 720p projector offers up to 100 lumens of brightness — meaning it will work best in dark environments, or in brighter rooms when viewing a smaller image — while its built-in battery should last about 80 minutes based on our real-world testing. That’s not exactly marathon battery life, but it’s easy enough to top off the Zip using a power bank or wall adapter.

In terms of support, the Zip can quickly connect to iPhones via AirPlay and to Android devices over Miracast, Smart View, and similar standards, allowing you to wirelessly mirror everything you can see on your phone. You can use it to watch any movies you’ve downloaded on your device, peruse your social feeds, or get in a quick session with your favorite game. It works in both landscape and portrait orientations, too, and supports Bluetooth, letting you listen privately with headphones or pair it to your favorite speaker.

The biggest downside to the Zip, at least for some folks, is that you won’t be able to use it to watch content from services like Netflix, Hulu, and HBO Max due to copyright restrictions. Aurzen does make a USB-C dongle that allows you to stream DRM-protected content, if you truly can’t get by without watching the latest episode of Euphoria. You’ll have to pay a whopping $109 for the privilege, or find another way.

As part of Garmin’s ongoing Mother’s Day celebration, the Venu 4 is currently on sale at Amazon, Best Buy, and REI in both the 41mm and 45mm configurations for $499.99 ($50 off), matching its best price to date. The Venu 4 is essentially a refreshed version of the Venu 3, only with expanded sleep tracking, the ability to log lifestyle habits (like caffeine intake), and extra accessibility features. Typically, the smartwatch is $100 more expensive than the last-gen model, meaning this limited-time promo takes the sting out a bit.
Amazon’s Fire TV Stick 4K Plus is still available at Woot for $16.09 with code FIRE30, but if you want a more capable streaming device, Google’s speedy TV Streamer (4K) is available at Amazon and Best Buy for $76.99 ($23 off). That’s nearly the best price we’ve seen for the terrific set-top box, which offers built-in Google Assistant, serves as a Matter-ready smart home hub, and pulls together recs from across your favorite streaming services. Read our review.
Microsoft’s latest Xbox Wireless Headset is down to $89.99 ($40 off) at Amazon and Target, which is about $10 shy of its lowest price to date. The first-party gaming headset features Dolby Atmos and Bluetooth 5.3 support, as well as similar ear cup dials to the original model, which we found fantastic. You also get a solid 20 hours of battery life and better mics, which sound just as good with Xbox consoles and mobile devices as they do on PC.

Google’s handsome Pixel Watch 4 is on sale for $40 off in both size configurations

2026-04-24T13:29:18-04:00

Spring has sprung, as they say, and to mark the occasion, Google is running a spring-centric promo until Sunday, April 26th. The limited-time discounts apply to a number of Google’s first-party devices, from the Pixel 10 Pro to the Pixel Buds Pro 2, as well as the wearables like the Pixel Watch 4. In fact, Google’s latest watch is on sale at Amazon, Best Buy, and the Google Store in its 41mm / Wi-Fi configuration starting at $309.99 ($40 off) — or in the 45mm config for $359.99 ($40 off) — which is one of the better prices we’ve seen in recent months.

Google Pixel Watch 4

Where to Buy:

We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: the Pixel Watch 4 is the Android watch to beat. Google’s newest wearable still works best for Pixel phone owners, though its overall performance, attractive 3,000-nit domed display, and host of upgrades over the third-gen model make it a suitable option for pretty much everyone. You still get a wide range of health and fitness tools, allowing you to track everything from your blood oxygen levels to your heart rate, along with the ability to automatically record certain cardio activities for at least 15 minutes. It also features emergency satellite SOS (in the case of an emergency) and dual-frequency GPS, the latter of which provides improved navigation in challenging environments such as cities and dense forests.

Unsurprisingly, the Pixel Watch 4 integrates well with Google’s slate of services — Google Maps, Google Wallet, Google Assistant, etc., etc. — and works with Gemini, now quickly accessible from your wrist using a convenient raise-to-talk gesture. It also benefits from a new speaker, a bigger battery, and a power-efficient processor, which, in our initial testing, allowed us to eke out a commendable 45 hours of battery life with the 45mm model. Much of the watch is now repairable, too, so should you ever break the glass or damage the battery, you don’t need to shell out for an entirely new watch. That’s a welcome design change, one we wish more wearable manufacturers would adopt.

Verge readers can pick up the third-gen Theragun Mini at Wellbots for $159.99 ($60 off) with code VERGETHERA60, which drops it to its lowest price to date. As someone who routinely uses the three-speed massage gun to soothe minor aches and pains, I can tell you it delivers a surprising amount of pressure for its pint-sized stature. It also comes with a trio of attachments, including a thumb add-on that’s ideal for areas that require more precise pressure.
Now through May 21st, you can grab Dreo’s Tower Fan Nomad One on Amazon in either black or white for $59.88 (about $20 off), an all-time low. The four-speed, oscillating fan isn’t particularly fancy (sorry, no Matter support), but with summer right around the corner, the staff favorite is a practical pickup that can blow air up to 34 feet away. The bladeless fan has even found its way into our upcoming graduation gift guide, if you need more convincing.
It’s not a new deal, per se, but you can still grab AirPods 4 at Amazon and Walmart for $99 ($30 off), which is a great price for Apple’s entry-level earbuds. The standard model sounds just as good as the step-up version with active noise cancellation, and because they’re outfitted with Apple’s H2 chip, those with a Mac or iPhone can leverage all sorts of ecosystem tricks, from automatic device switching to hands-free Siri commands.

Dyson’s newest floor scrubber is already on sale for 20 percent off

2026-04-21T12:10:39-04:00

Dyson feels like it’s been on a tear as of late. The company recently introduced a handheld version of its iconic fan and a travel-friendly hair dryer, along with a mopping version of its ultra-thin PencilVac. And while none of them are currently discounted, you can save on the new Dyson Clean+Wash Hygiene wet cleaner, which is on sale at Amazon and Walmart for a new low of $399.99 ($100 off).

Dyson Clean+Wash Hygiene wet cleaner

Where to Buy:

Unlike most Dyson models, its latest hard floor cleaner doesn’t rely on suction. Instead, it uses hydration and a four-speed motorized brush bar — along with nylon bristles — to agitate tough stains and pet hair, allowing you to remove both without clogging the machine with gunk. An anti-tangle comb helps prevent unwanted wrapping, while the self-cleaning roller is continuously fed fresh water as you maneuver around your home. The added benefit of its lack of suction is that, theoretically, it should hold up better in the long term, as most vacuums see their performance decline after five years or so due to wear and tear.

Additionally, the Clean+Wash Hygiene comes with a hot-air drying dock that charges the cleaner and flushes the microfiber roller after each cycle, helping reduce bacterial growth and odors. It should last up to 45 minutes on a single charge — though we have yet to confirm the exact runtime — and the water tank is large enough to clean 3,767 square feet of floor before needing to be emptied. Thankfully, the latter isn’t all that difficult, given that it can be done in a single action in 20 seconds or so. Just don’t expect disposal to be as odorless as the dock itself, even if the water and debris are automatically separated.

If you’re a Pixel phone owner hellbent on using Google gear, the company’s 45W USB-C Power Charger is on sale at Amazon for $17.99 ($12 off), nearly matching its best price to date. I wouldn’t normally recommend it given that companies like Anker often sell competing wall adapters for far less (ahem), though, at this price, Google’s first-party offering is a lot easier to sign off on.
Now through April 29th, Nintendo is running a Spotlight Sale in the My Nintendo Shop, allowing you to save on a host of Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 games. There’s quite a bit on offer — from cel-shaded puzzlers to Bethesda classics that refuse to die — but Hades II ($23.99 ~~$29.99~~) is probably the standout. I only recently started pouring time into the Greek-y roguelike, which, so far, is just as enthralling as the original. I probably should have taken our own Jay Peter’s word for it when he said as much in September.
TCL’s midrange Tab A1 Plus is on sale at Amazon for $229.99 ($70 off) through April 27th, which remains the best price we’ve seen on the Android tablet to date. The newer, 12.2-inch slate features a 2.4K display with a 120Hz refresh rate, a four-speaker sound array, and all-day battery life. It also features a host of Google Gemini-powered features (including Circle to Search) and a Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor, which, while certainly not the fastest chipset available, should be enough to power most everyday tasks.

Nothing’s modular CMF Headphone Pro are down to their lowest price to date

2026-04-19T10:21:23-04:00

Over the past several years, Nothing’s budget-centric subsidiary, CMF, has built a reputation for producing attractive, inexpensive products with features often reserved for gadgets that cost twice the price. The CMF Headphone Pro — the company’s first pair of over-ear wireless headphones — fit precisely in that lane, especially now that they’re on sale at Amazon in both light gray and a subtle green shade for an all-time low of $69 ($30 off).

CMF Headphone Pro

Where to Buy:

Although the Headphone Pro eschew the retro-transparent design found on Nothing wares like the Headphone 1, I wouldn’t necessarily say that’s a bad thing given the polarizing, squared-off design of the latter. Instead, the Pro go all in on the curves, with circular earcups, cushions, and a plush headband. You can also add an additional pop of color with CMF’s $25 interchangeable cushions, which, as of now, are available in either orange or the aforementioned green hue.

Unlike many premium pairs of noise-canceling headphones, the Pro ditch touch-capacitive controls for physical buttons — a plus, as far as I’m concerned — allowing you to control playback, adjust the volume, and tweak a range of other settings using a customizable action button and a multi-function roller. Nothing also includes something called an Energy Slider, so you can adjust the treble and bass balance on the fly without digging into Nothing’s app to make EQ adjustments.

The biggest draw of the Headphone Pro, aside from their adaptive ANC, is that they offer a whopping 100 hours of battery life per charge, ensuring you can travel just about anywhere without having to top them off. That number drops to 50 hours with active noise cancellation enabled; however, that’s still 10 hours more than what you’d get with a higher-end pair like Sony’s WH-1000XM6 and 20 hours more than the latest Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones. The fact that they support Google Fast Pair and the higher-quality LDAC codec is just a plus.

Other alternatives to consider

Beats Solo 4

With lossless USB-C audio, 50 hours of battery life, Find My support, spatial audio, and comfy ear cups, the Beats Solo 4 offer significant quality-of-life improvements over their predecessors. They still deliver that bass-rich Beats sound, too. Read our review.

Where to Buy:

Sony WH-CH520

The Sony WH-CH520 offer a lot for very little. The on-ear Bluetooth headphones provide 50 hours of battery life and support hands-free voice assistants, including Google Assistant and Siri. They also offer multipoint Bluetooth support and can tap into Google’s Find Hub network.

Bose’s noise-crushing QC Ultra Earbuds are nearly 20 percent off right now

2026-04-14T11:04:49-04:00

When it comes to the best noise-canceling earbuds, the competition has gotten fierce. Apple, Sony, Samsung, and Google all offer excellent options, though, unsurprisingly, Bose still retains the noise-canceling crown with the latest QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds. Luckily, you can now grab the second-gen earbuds at Amazon and Best Buy for $249 ($50 off), which matches their second-best price to date.

Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds (2nd Gen)

Where to Buy:

While the QC Ultra Earbuds (2nd Gen) aren’t a massive step up from the first-gen model, at least visually, they make noticeable strides in both sound and call quality. They still lean a little bass-heavy, but the high-end is clear and lively, whether you’re listening to the stock sound or fine-tune your preferences using the three-band EQ located in the Bose app. They also come with a wireless charging case and continue to support Immersive Audio, which is similar to Apple’s spatial audio in that it can add greater depth when listening to select content.

The ANC tech is where the latest Ultra Earbuds truly shine, though, particularly if you’re someone who likes to adjust the intensity. The wireless earbuds feature 11 steps, from full on to full off, which you can lock in with your own presets, whether for running or your commute. They’re fantastic at drowning out low-frequency sounds and loud spikes in sound, too, even when using Bose’s helpful transparency mode (aka Aware mode), making it easy to better focus on your conversation and everything else going on around you when you need to.

It’s no 25W MageSafe charger, but Belkin’s last-gen BoostCharge Pro is on sale at Woot with an AC adapter for $34.99 ($65 off) through April 12th, which is the lowest price we’ve seen. The sleek, StandBy-ready 2-in-1 charging stand can still deliver up to 15W of power to newer iPhone models — specifically, from the iPhone 12 onward —while allowing you to top off a pair of earbuds via a second wireless pad located directly underneath.
The Turtle Beach Stealth Pivot has returned to its all-time low of $99.99 ($40 off) at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy, making it a great time to pick up the versatile gamepad if you missed its big price drop in February. The wireless PC controller features drift-free Hall effect sticks, built-in social notifications, and a set of programmable back buttons; however, its calling card is a pair of swiveling modules that let you quickly transition from a traditional layout to one better suited for retro titles and fighting games. It even works with Xbox consoles via a wired connection.
It’s kind of baffling to me that Apple hasn’t released a new entry-level tablet this year, which means the 2025 iPad remains the cheapest option available. The tablet’s A16 chip is definitely starting to show its age, though, if all you plan to do with it is simple tasks like check your email and mainline The Pitt on your day off, you can pick it up at Amazon and Best Buy right now with Wi-Fi and 128GB of storage starting at $299 ($150 off).

You can grab a refurbished 2021 Kindle Paperwhite starting at just $49.99

2026-04-12T10:32:11-04:00

We spend a lot of time at The Verge waxing poetic about the latest gadgets, but sometimes it’s the last-gen devices from several years ago that offer the better value. The 2021 Kindle Paperwhite is a great case in point — especially since you can grab it at Woot in refurbished condition with lockscreen ads, 8GB of storage, and a 90-day warranty starting at $49.99 through the rest of today, April 12th, which is about $90 off the e-reader’s original list price. Per usual, Amazon Prime members will also receive free shipping with their purchase.

The entry-level refurb models are in full working order but include a unspecified, moderate level of wear and tear — hence their “scratch and dent” designation. Thankfully, Woot is also selling non-S&D models of the 2021 Paperwhite with ads, 8GB of storage, and the same 90-day Woot warranty starting at $69.99. You can even pick up a refurbished Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition — which adds wireless charging, a sensor to automatically adjust the backlight, and four times the storage — for $99.99, or $90 off the step-up model’s original MSRP.

2021 Kindle Paperwhite (refurbished, with ads)

Where to Buy:

Unlike Amazon’s latest entry-level Kindle, the 11th-generation Paperwhite boasts robust IPX8 waterproofing and a 6.8-inch display, which is two inches smaller than the 7-inch screen on the newest Paperwhite. That said, it still boasts the same resolution (300ppi) as the latest model, along with adjustable color temperature, allowing you to read just as easily at night as during the day. The e-reader packs monthslong battery life and USB-C support, too, though its UI isn’t as responsive as on the latest models, nor are page turns quite as fast.

If you’re thinking about upgrading from an older model, Woot’s Paperwhite promo couldn’t come at a better time. Amazon recently announced that it will end support for pre-2012 Kindle devices on May 20th, 2026, which will prevent existing owners from purchasing, borrowing, or downloading new content via the Kindle Store (previously downloaded books will still be accessible). Amazon is offering longtime users a 20 percent discount on new Kindle devices until June 20th; however, even with the discount, you’d still be paying nearly three times as much to nab the 2024 Paperwhite.

My go-to electric screwdriver is on sale for over 50 percent off today

2026-04-10T13:43:17-04:00

Fanttik, like Hoto, is quickly becoming a household name. The tool brand’s cordless wares are quiet, capable, and certainly more stylish than anything you’d find at your local Ace Hardware or neighborhood tool library. The S1 Pro electric screwdriver is a great example of the company’s penchant for attractive design, one you can currently grab on Amazon for an all-time low of $39.99 ($50 off) when you enter promo code YBRS9843 at checkout.

Fanttik S1 Pro Cordless Electric Screwdriver

Where to Buy:

~~$89.99~~ $39.99 at Amazon (with code YBRS9843)

Unsurprisingly, Fanttik’s TikTok-worthy screwdriver isn’t going to rival a dedicated drill when it comes to torque or comfort, even when talking about the smaller 12V variety. Still, it’s more efficient than a manual screwdriver when it comes to performing small- to medium-sized tasks around the home, whether that be assembling a bed or tightening the screws on your bicycle seat — two things I used it for just this week. It’s lightweight and sleek, with a 220RPM motor, three torque settings, a circular LED light, and a dedicated button for screwing in or out.

In addition to the S1 Pro itself, you get a magnetic case that also houses the screwdriver and the 16 S2 hardened steel bits, which encompass everything from flathead and Allen heads to Torx bits for opening up smaller electronics. It’s also equipped with a 2,000mAh battery, which, according to Fanttik, should be enough to operate up to 340 screws. I haven’t put that claim to the test myself, but so far, so good.

Now through 10PM PT today, April 10th, Iniu’s 10,000mAh Portable Charger is on sale at Best Buy for just $15.99 ($13 off), which is the best price we’ve seen. I’ve become a big fan of Iniu’s compact charging banks in recent years, particularly the 2oW P61L-P1 on sale here, which comes with a built-in USB-C cable, a three-year warranty, and enough juice to charge an older smartphone model like the iPhone 15 to 65 capacity in just 25 minutes.
If you’re really looking to level up your newborn’s sleeping arrangements, enter the Cradlewise. The smart crib / bassinet — which is now available on Amazon for $1,709 ($90) thanks to an on-page coupon — combines a sound machine, an AI-enhanced baby monitor, and an automated rocker into a single device, with real-time notifications and sleep insights at the ready. It also easily converts from bassinet to crib, allowing you to eke out about 24 months of use, assuming you want to use it with your toddler.
Speaking of all-in-one devices, Mophie’s slick Juice Pack battery case is still on sale at Amazon starting at $49.93 (about $50 off), an all-time low. The MagSafe-compatible, lanyard-equipped case can provide both impact protection and an additional 50 percent of battery life to iPhone 16 and 17-series phones, including the iPhone 16 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro, and even the beefier 17 Pro Max.

Bose’s rugged Soundlink Flex Bluetooth speaker is on sale for up to $50 off

2026-04-13T12:50:54-04:00

We saw a host of excellent Bose discounts during Amazon’s so-called Big Spring Sale last month; however, none of them were quite as steep as the current price drop we’re seeing on the latest Bose Soundlink Flex. Right now, the portable speaker is on sale at Amazon in select colors starting at $109 ($50 off) at checkout, nearly matching its best price to date. It’s also available at Walmart, Best Buy, and directly from Bose in all eight hues, albeit for $119 ($40 off) instead of $109.

Bose Soundlink Flex (second-gen)

Where to Buy:

A few years back, we crowned the original Soundlink Flex the best portable Bluetooth speaker under $200. It was an impressive speaker with expansive sound and a surprising amount of low-end thump, not to mention a rugged, IP67-rated design that allowed you to take it pretty much anywhere. It was a real winner in many respects, particularly for its compact size, which is probably why Bose didn’t feel the need to completely reinvent the wheel with the second iteration.

The second-gen Flex is nearly identical to the first-gen model, only with a few subtle refinements. The travel-friendly speaker features a redesigned control strip with a new play / pause button and a power button that’s easier to locate — a welcome upgrade, given that the buttons on the original weren’t easy to use by feel alone. The 2nd Gen version also features adjustable EQ and support for higher-res AAC and aptX codecs, though you still get up to 12 hours of battery life, stereo pairing (if you own two), and weatherproofing, making the silicone-wrapped speaker a great picnic or poolside companion.

More deals and discounts

Lego’s adorable R2-D2 replica is currently on sale at Amazon, Walmart, and Target for $79.99 ($20 off), matching its lowest price to date. The 1,050-piece set is a nice, decor-worthy homage to everyone’s favorite R2-series astromech droid, complete with a 180-degree swiveling head, an attachable periscope, and a miniature Artoo that’s meant to sit alongside the included info plaque.
If Google’s premium subscriptions don’t scare you off, the third-gen Google Nest Doorbell is down to $139.99 ($40 off) — its second-best price to date — at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy. The new model supports 2K HDR video, a taller field of view than prior models, and a new sensor with a wider aperture lens for full-color low-light video. The wired video doorbell can also leverage Gemini for AI-generated text descriptions, assuming you’re willing to pay for Google’s Home Premium Advanced plan ($20 a month).
I probably wouldn’t call Twelve South’s 4-foot PowerCord the God Cable we’ve been looking for, but it’s still a good option for charging a range of gadgets now that it’s on sale at Amazon for $16.79 (about $13 off), which is about $6 shy of its lowest price to date. The sleek, low-profile device combines a 30W fast charger with a USB-C cable, allowing you to top off your phone, tablet, and a host of other small electronics without the need for an extra wall adapter.

Update, April 10th: Updated to reflect a steeper $50 price cut on the Bose SoundLink Flex.

Here are the best Apple Watch deals available right now

2026-04-09T18:31:47-04:00

In September, Apple launched its latest batch of smartwatches, including the Apple Watch Series 11, the SE 3, and the Ultra 3. Each has its own pros and cons, but the introduction of Apple’s newest wearables also means there are now more Apple Watch models on the market than ever before — and a lot more deals to be had.

But with all of those options, which one should you pick? Generally speaking, you want to buy the newest watch you can afford so that it continues to receive software updates from Apple. The latest update, watchOS 26, launched in September on the Series 6 and newer models, leaving those with a Series 5 and older devices in the proverbial dust. Fortunately, picking up a watch from the latest (or a recent) generation ensures you’re getting a futureproof smartwatch with an updated design, a robust feature set, and plenty of sensors.

Now, let’s get to the deals.

Apple Watch Series 11 deals

Apple Watch Series 11 (42mm, GPS)

Where to Buy:

Apple Watch Series 11 (46mm, GPS)

Where to Buy:

The Apple Watch Series 11 is a fairly iterative update of the Series 10, meaning those who already own Apple’s last-gen flagship may not necessarily feel compelled to upgrade. That being said, the newest model does tout a more power-efficient 5G modem and a more scratch-resistant display, as well as an additional 6 hours of battery life over the Series 10. It’s also the slimmest Apple Watch to date and the first to offer FDA-cleared hypertension notifications out of the gate, which you can also now leverage on both the Series 9 and Ultra 2.

If you are looking to upgrade, however, you can pick up the Apple Watch Series 11 in the 42mm / GPS configuration at Amazon and Walmart starting at $329 ($70 off), which remains the second-best price we’ve seen for the base model. If you prefer the larger 46mm / GPS model, it’s also available at Amazon and Walmart for around $329 ($100 off), matching its lowest price to date.

Apple Watch SE 3 deals

Apple Watch SE 3 (40mm, GPS)

Where to Buy:

Apple Watch SE 3 (44mm, GPS)

Where to Buy:

While the Apple Watch Series 11 and Ultra 3 introduce a handful of iterative updates, the new Apple Watch SE 3 represents a significant upgrade over its 2022 predecessor. The entry-level watch features the same speedy S10 chip found in Apple’s flagship models, for one, letting you take advantage of Apple’s double tap feature, wrist flick gestures, and on-device Siri. The SE 3 also (finally) adds an always-on display, 5G connectivity, support for fast-charging, and audio playback so you can listen to music or podcasts directly from your wrist.

On the health front, the SE 3 introduces a wrist-temperature sensor for retrospective ovulation tracking, along with breathing disturbance alerts, sleep apnea notifications, and a new Sleep Score that breaks down time spent in each stage. What you won’t find are the Series 11’s EKG functionality, blood oxygen monitoring, or hypertension notifications — those are exclusive to the Series and Ultra models.

In terms of deals, the Apple Watch SE 3 is currently available on Amazon in its 40mm base configuration with GPS for $239, a mere $10 discount and about $40 shy of its lowest price to date. You can also pick up the larger 44mm model on Amazon starting at $269, which, again, is $10 less than the MSRP.

Read our full Apple Watch SE 3 review.

Apple Watch Ultra 3 deals

Apple Watch Ultra 3

Where to Buy:

Unsurprisingly, the Apple Watch Ultra 3 offers the most features, sensors, and ruggedness of any Apple Watch available thus far. It features a larger, wide-angle OLED display with a 1Hz refresh rate and thinner bezels, as well as both satellite and 5G connectivity. Better yet, battery life has been extended from 36 hours to 42 hours — a marginal improvement, but one that allows you to squeeze out a bit more life when necessary.

As far as deals go, the Ultra 3 recently dropped to an all-time low of $699.99 ($100 off), which is the current sale price on Amazon when you pick it up with either an Ocean Band or a Trail Loop strap. You can also grab it from Amazon with an Alpine Loop strap starting at $768 ($32 off), which remains one of the better prices we’ve seen on that particular model in recent weeks.

Apple Watch Ultra 2 deals

Apple Watch Ultra 2

Where to Buy:

If the latest Ultra isn’t what you’re after, you can save some money by opting for an Apple Watch Ultra 2, which isn’t vastly different than Apple’s latest top-of-the-line model. The wearable runs on the older S9 SiP and features Apple’s second-gen ultra wideband chip, but that may not matter to you since it still offers precise GPS tracking, a range of diving-friendly sensors, and long-lasting battery life.

Right now, you can pick up the Apple Watch Ultra 2 at Best Buy with an Alpine Loop, a Trail Loop, or an Ocean Band starting at $574 ($225 off), which is about $125 less than the current price of the Ultra 3.

The new iPad Air is already on sale. | Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge

While the best iPad deals usually land during major sale events like Black Friday, many great iPad deals are available outside of those moments. The day-to-day discounts come and go like the changing winds, so there’s often some amount to be saved somewhere, particularly on Apple’s most affordable iPad and the latest iPad Mini. Hell, you can even often find discounts on the latest M5 iPad Pro, which is already on sale at multiple retailers.

All that being said, it’s difficult to know where exactly you can find the most notable iPad deals unless you’re scouring the major retailers on a daily basis. But that’s often what our deal hunters at The Verge are doing, so let us help you out. Below, we’ve rounded up the best prices on every current iPad model, from the 11th-gen base iPad to the more powerful models with the M3, M4, and M5 chips.

Apple iPad (11th-gen)

Where to Buy:

Apple’s 11th-gen iPad landed on the scene a year ago. The newest base-model tablet is a fairly iterative update of the prior model, but with 128GB of base storage (up from 64GB) and an A16 Bionic chip, which is nearly 30 percent faster than the A14 chip used in the 10th-gen iPad. However, the newer chip doesn’t support the various Apple Intelligence features introduced in iPadOS 18.1 and subsequent updates. For that, you’ll want to opt for a more recent iPad Air, iPad Mini, or iPad Pro model.

Pricing-wise, the latest iPad starts at $349 with Wi-Fi and 128GB of storage. You can also upgrade to 256GB or 512GB of storage for an additional $100 or $200, respectively, or purchase an LTE model starting at $499. Right now it’s available at Amazon and for Costco members in select colors for $299.99 ($50 off), which is just $20 shy of its all-time low price. If you’d prefer more storage, you can buy the 256GB model at Amazon starting at $399.99 ($50 off), or the 512GB variant at Amazon starting at $597 ($52 off).

The best iPad Mini (2024) deals

iPad Mini (2024)

Where to Buy:

The seventh-gen iPad Mini is similar in several ways to the previous model, but comes with some big internal upgrades. It includes faster Wi-Fi and USB-C speeds, support for the Apple Pencil Pro, and a newer A17 Pro processor with 8GB of RAM to support Apple Intelligence. Otherwise, it boasts nearly identical specs and features as the last-gen model, meaning it has an 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display and options for 5G. It may not be worth upgrading if you already own a sixth-gen Mini, but newcomers to the category will appreciate the upgrades.

The 2024 iPad Mini starts at $499 with 128GB of storage, which was the price for the previous generation’s 64GB model. Electing for 256GB of storage brings the price up to $599, and the cellular models start at $649. These are some big numbers for a small iPad, so the larger iPad Air might be worth considering if you prefer your dollar to go further with more screen real estate. But if you want an Apple tablet in the smallest possible form factor, this is where the action is.

In the past we’ve seen the iPad Mini drop to as low as $349, but right now the 128GB base model with Wi-Fi at Amazon costs $474 ($25 off). If you need additional storage, you can pick up the 256GB variant at Amazon for $569 ($30 off), which is far from its $449 all-time low price.

The best iPad Air (2026) deals

11-inch iPad Air (2026)

Where to Buy:

13-inch iPad Air M4

Where to Buy:

Apple recently announced a new iPad Air powered by its M4 chip. Like its predecessor, it comes in two sizes — 11 inches and 13 inches — but Apple claims it’s now “up to 30 percent faster.” The new Airs also offer 12GB of RAM, up from 8GB, and feature Apple’s new N1 wireless chip, which adds support for Bluetooth 6, Wi-Fi 7, and Thread, meaning the tablet should be able to connect faster and more reliably to wireless networks, accessories, and smart home devices.

You can grab the 128GB Wi-Fi model at a discount from multiple retailers right now. Amazon has it for $556.50 ($42 off), which is its best price yet, while Best Buy and Walmart are both selling it for $559 ($40 off). If you need more storage, you can buy the step-up 256GB variant for $646.50 ($53 off) at Amazon and Walmart. If you want a larger display, the 13-inch model is also on sale for $746.50 ($53 off) at Amazon and Walmart, which is its steepest discount yet.

The best iPad Air (2025) deals

11-inch iPad Air M3

Where to Buy:

13-inch iPad Air M3

Where to Buy:

While Apple no longer officially sells last year’s iPad Air, it is still available — and discounted — at various third-party retailers. Right now, the 11-inch model is on sale at Walmart and Target in its base configuration with Wi-Fi and 128GB of storage starting at around $499 ($100 off), while the 256GB model is available at Target for $599.99 ($100 off). However, since the M4 iPad Air currently only cost about $50 more, depending on which you buy, it may make more sense to opt for Apple’s newer model instead.

Although the 2025 iPad is a last-gen model powered by Apple’s older M3 chip with less RAM, it’s still snappy enough that it remains a relatively good purchase in 2026. It offers a few technical upgrades over the entry-level iPad, too, which should allow it to last longer. It features support for Apple Intelligence, plus compatibility with Apple’s latest Magic Keyboard, which has a larger trackpad and an extra row of function keys. In short, the M3 Air remains a credible laptop replacement.

The larger 13-inch model, meanwhile, is on sale at Walmart and Target with Wi-Fi and 128GB of storage starting at $699 ($120 off), which is $50 shy of its best price to date. For more storage, you can grab the 256GB model at Target starting at $799.99 ($100 off).

The best iPad Pro (2025) deals

11-inch iPad Pro (M5, 2025)

Where to Buy:

13-inch iPad Pro (2025)

Where to Buy:

While there are some deals floating around for the M4 iPad Pro, we’d argue none of them are particularly noteworthy given the current discounts on the 2025 iPad Pro. Apple’s latest high-end tablet offers a few upgrades over the last-gen model, including a faster M5 chip, a new C1X cellular modem (if you get the cellular version), and an N1 chip that handles Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Thread. Apple also increased read and write speeds to its memory, and the latest Pro supports fast charging, allowing you to charge it to 50 percent capacity in about 30 minutes.

The 11-inch base model with 256GB of storage is currently down to $936.50 at Amazon, while the model with 512GB of storage is on sale for $1,099.99 ($100 off) at Best Buy and Amazon. You can snag the 1TB variant for $1,499 ($100 off) at Amazon.

If you want a larger display, you can get the 13-inch iPad Pro in its 256GB base configuration for $1,199 ($100 off) at Amazon. Meanwhile, the step-up model with Wi-Fi and 512GB of storage is down to about $1,399 (also $100 off) at Amazon and Best Buy, while the 1TB model can be had at Amazon for $1,747 ($102 off).
