Plug into the 15 best Prime Day tech deals, including $80 off AirPods

This is one of HP’s most popular laptop lines, and this model comes with tons of storage (288GB to be exact) and a docking station. If you’re using this for business or school, you’ll be happy to see that it also comes with one year of free Microsoft 365. While this isn’t the lowest price we’ve seen all year, it spiked as high as $399 a few months ago, so now is still a great time to buy.

“It exceeded my expectations as it automatically transferred software from my PC and also set up Microsoft Office,” one pleased shopper wrote. “I love it! It’s lightning fast.”

If you’re in the market for a versatile gaming laptop that won’t break the bank, the HP Victus is a midrange machine that 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. Oh, and did we mention it’s currently the lowest price on record? 

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

Powered by the M2 chip, this MacBook Air is just as lightweight as its newer cousins but is available at a nice discount. And to drive the point home: This is the lowest price this Mac has ever been. This deal is one of the best we’ve seen of any Prime Day deals this year, and we predict it’s going to be one of the best for October Prime Day as well.

“Very snappy, and the specs are perfect for my heavy home office use,” one customer said. “Setup was a breeze from an iCloud backup. Have used it on multiple Zoom and Teams video meetings and the new camera and speakers work awesome for this purpose.”

Fans say these earbuds have surprising sound quality given their light weight — just 3.7 grams each. You can expect 24 hours of playback between the buds and the case. The current price matches the lowest it has ever been too!

In fact, some fans say these thrifty helpers are almost on the level of AirPods, but at a significantly more affordable price. “They are an excellent, excellent alternative to AirPods. The sound is clear, the fit is good and range is excellent.”

These stylish cans combine a wild 60 hours of playback time with active noise-canceling features to create a quiet, focused listening experience that’s hard to beat. Right now, they’re close to an all-time low price for Prime members — not quite the lowest we’ve ever seen, but only a few dollars off. 

More than 55,000 people give these headphones a five-star rating. Why? Well, as one fan puts it, “They are as good as my $300 pair from Bose.” That’s high praise, especially considering the price. 

We picked the AirPods Pro as the best wireless earbuds overall, and for good reason: They combine truly excellent audio quality with impressive noise-canceling. The battery life is a major plus too. 

“There’s simply no better option than Apple’s latest AirPods Pro,” says Yahoo Senior Tech Writer Rick Broida, praising the earbuds for their ANC, battery life and “an adaptive-audio mode that adjusts noise-cancelation and transparency modes based on the sounds around you.”

This is a bite-sized screen for a bite-sized price. Seriously: When’s the last time you saw a TV for so little? It’s ideal for a spare bedroom or in a smaller space like a garage. If you like to wander, this also makes an excellent choice for an RV. It’s the lowest it’s been all year!

Don’t let the price fool you, either. Fans love it: “Excellent picture and sound quality. The picture is so bright and clear.”

Amazon is known for its high-quality, affordable TVs and this model is one of its most popular. It comes with an Alexa voice remote, and since this is a Fire TV, all of your favorite streaming apps like Netflix, Prime Video and Disney+ already come built in. Just a few days ago, this TV spiked to $200, so at its current Prime-exclusive price is a bargain.

“I appreciate the size of the TV and the ease of use by the remote control,” one five-star reviewer wrote. “Picture and colors are very good as is the sound quality.”

More than 10,000 of these TVs have flown off the virtual shelves in the past month, and why? Not only does this TV boast 4K resolution (and upscales lower-resolution content to look better), but it provides access to more than 1 million movies and TV episodes through a variety of streaming services. Now’s the best time to grab it since it’s the most affordable it’s been all year.

One fan gave it high praise: “Hands down best TV I’ve purchased in the last decade.” 

This Vizio has tons of convenient features like Apple AirPlay and Chromecast, and it even has Alexa built-in, so you’ll be able to control it with your voice when you’re not in the mood to press the remote buttons. 

“The picture quality is amazing compared to my old television,” one impressed reviewer wrote. “The sound quality compared to my old television is good, but let me tell you about the remote control. It has the majority of my apps in one place.”

We were surprised to find Amazon’s latest Fire tablet on sale before October Prime Day — especially for an impressive 45% off! This portable tech accessory comes in three colors and is just the right size for streaming and gaming on the go. It’s also durable, super thin and lightweight.

Seeing that this was just recently released, this is the lowest it’s ever been, but we have a feeling it may go back to its original $100 price tag in no time, so snag it now while it’s almost half off!

Some shoppers say they prefer this Fire tablet to their much more expensive iPads. It has a vibrant HD screen and a fast processor, and it was made with ease of use in mind, so you won’t have to dig around to find what you want or need. It also makes an ideal portable streaming device for traveling. This is the most affordable it’s been all year!

“Much better battery life in standby mode than my iPad Pro 11-inch,” one reviewer wrote. “Great tablet for the price. Thin, lightweight, fast enough for Netflix.”

Bookworms take note: While nothing can replace the feel of a physical book, a Kindle e-reader can hold hundreds of titles — downloaded from Amazon or your local library. The internal backlight is ideal for late-night reading sessions, and since it’s lightweight and wafer-thin, it’s ideal for travel or your daily commute. 

This one comes with a few extras that you’ll be glad you got in the long run: a fabric cover to protect the device and a power adapter. Thanks to this Prime Day deal, this is actually the lowest it’s been all year.

“This was such a good purchase,” one five-star reviewer wrote. “I have read more books in three weeks than I have read in years. Instant library at my fingertips. The backlight is perfect — it seems to adjust to the ambient lighting a bit. The screen doesn’t strain my eyes at all.”

This 11-inch Android tablet has a large screen, quad speakers and multiwindow display, plus it’s slim and lightweight enough for easy portability. Though we saw it drop to $150 earlier this year, its current sale price is still a pretty solid deal.

“The display is sharp and vibrant, making it perfect for watching videos, reading and browsing the web,” one shopper wrote. “It’s a solid choice for anyone looking for a budget-friendly, reliable Android tablet.”

This iPad might be a few years old, but it offers one of the best value propositions of any tablet on the market. At this all-time low price, you get a tablet that’s ideal for everything from working to playing. 

This model has been discontinued, so any you see for sale are among the last in stock. That means that once this deal goes away, it isn’t coming back — it’s one of the only chances you’ll have to pick up an iPad for less than $300.
