Updated October 1: We've added new deals from Amazon, De'Longhi, and Belkin. We've also checked prices and made sure existing deals are up to date.
The JBL Go 5 is our top budget Bluetooth speaker. It's available in 10 different colors, most of which are down to a match of the best price we've seen. It's durable, lightweight, and sounds good for its size.
The Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 remain our top earbuds for Android users (they also work with iOS). They're aesthetically pleasing. They sound great. They're comfortable, have a long-lasting battery, and active noise cancellation, plus some useful software features. If you want good earbuds that aren't AirPods, these might be up your alley.
Amazon launched two new Echo Show smart displays last year, and the Echo Show 11 was easily the better of the two. This time around, the sound has been improved, and the screen is larger—but not so big that it's unwieldy to put in a kitchen counter. Amazon did raise the price $30 at the end of August, but this is still the lowest deal price I've seen for it since its launch, so it's still a good buy. —Nena Farrell
I have tested many, many Apple 3-in-1 wireless chargers, and it's worthy of a place on your nightstand. It's been redesigned, now using a classy-looking mix of matte zinc and soft-touch black plastic with a lovely weighted base. The iPhone pad can also be tilted to hold your iPhone vertically or horizontally, with support for StandBy mode. It can fast-charge iPhone and Apple Watch models, as well as charge any AirPods with a wireless charging case. The 5-foot barrel jack cable and 40-watt wall charger come bundled in the box. —Simon Hill
This is Louryn's go-to gaming headset, which can work seamlessly across consoles, phones, and PCs. It's $20 higher than the all-time low.
Is it a great deal? No. Is it a totally fine deal on a very good MagSafe wallet? Yes indeed.
When it's not $42, it's $50. This MagSafe wallet doubles as a tripod and has Apple Find My compatibility.
