Walmart Holiday Deals end tonight! Hours remain to save big on PS5, GoPros, gaming laptops and more

From laptops to Legos, Walmart has a wide range of pre-holiday deals. (Engadget)

Amazon’s October Prime Day is history, but Walmart’s Holiday Deals event has a few hours left. The holidays are just around the corner, so if you’re looking for early gift ideas — or just want to treat yourself (we won’t tell) — now is the perfect time. Walmart’s discounts encompass a wide range of cool tech, including everything from a 32-inch smart TV and a self-cleaning ice maker, each available for under $100.

Computers, action cameras, even high-tech toothbrushes are all on sale at Walmart, with deep discounts that equate to more than half price in some cases. Browse these fantastic deals we have gathered and check a few items off your list before Thanksgiving has even arrived. Then go ahead and pat yourself on the back for a job well done on actually getting started early for once, and saving money in the process.

These deals are live online right now and available for Walmart shoppers in-store as well if you prefer to browse in person. But don’t delay: The online sale ends tonight (Sunday, October 13) at 11:59PM ET — or while supplies last.

Engadget named not only one but two LG UltraGear gaming monitors to its list of the best gaming monitors this year, thanks to the excellent video performance and ultra-fast refresh rates. And while this step-down sibling is neither 4K nor OLED like those are, it still boasts solid refresh rates, an ample screen size and compatibility with AMD FreeSync, making it a great choice for gamers on a budget. The borderless design looks great in a home office, too, so use it as a bigger or second screen for productivity during the work or school day as well.

Save more than $100 on this Nest smart thermostat, which learns your home and away schedule to help you save on energy costs. We also like its high-res digital display, sleek design and the fact that you can adjust your home’s temperature from anywhere via its companion app.

Having used a GoPro HERO camera before, I can attest to the fact that the accessories are what truly makes them among the most versatile action cameras around. This bundle includes the HERO 12, which offers longer recording times than the HERO 11 according to our Engadget reviewer, along with improved Bluetooth capabilities and the option to record square-ish 8:7 video in every mode (hello, easy Instagram uploads!) Given the price, we can’t believe this set also includes 50 (yes, 50!) accessories, not to mention a pair of extra batteries. There’s a tether strap, head strap mount (awesome for recording waterslide fun!), tripod mount adapter, even a microSDXC memory card. With this jam-packed kit, there’s virtually nowhere you won’t be able to shoot.

“This machine handles any modern game or creative application I throw at it effortlessly,” comments one Walmart shopper who recently purchased this gaming desktop. If you’re serious about gaming and looking to upgrade your rig, this sale saving you a cool $350 will get you going for much less than you thought you’d have to pay. With 32GB RAM and a whopping 128GB maximum if you upgrade it, along with a liquid cooling system that ensures the desktop doesn’t overheat nor blare loud fan noise, this unit is a gaming beast. Let’s not forget the 1TB SSD that can probably store your entire game collection, with room to spare and — most importantly — the GeForce RTX 4060 video card that will deliver buttery smooth framerates.

Yes, it’s a couple generations old already, but this ultra-lightweight MacBook Air still comes with Apple’s M-series chip, making it snappy and efficient (seriously, it’s impressive), not to mention upgradeable to the latest OS with all those cool Apple Intelligence features you’ve been hearing about. This unit is so thin and light, you’ll almost forget you’re carrying it around. The 18-hour battery life will keep it going all day, perfect for remote or hybrid workers attending endless Zoom meetings and students sitting through long days of classes.

TCL

Electric toothbrushes are game changers for oral health, and this one is suitable for both adults and older kids who aren’t getting the all-clear from the dentist at every visit. Fend off plaque and resulting cavities and get a fresh smile with this toothbrush from one of the most popular and recognized brands. You’ll love the pressure sensor that advises if you’re pressing too hard (gentle strokes, guys) and the quadrant timer for spending the required 30 seconds per side for a two-minute journey to sparkling clean teeth. Engadget named the more powerful step-up Oral-B iO Series 7 as the best overall electric toothbrush, but if you don’t need all those extra modes and app connectivity for visual guides, this is a good starter.

A must-have for the home bar or for those who entertain often, it can make up to 30 lbs. of bullet ice in 24 hours and stores up to 1.6 lbs. at a time, keeping the cubes frozen and consistently churning for drinks, recipes, and other frozen concoctions.

This one also uses the ultra-simple Roku smart TV interface, which offers the full slate of streaming apps.

While you might not be able to afford a real Lambo, and your kid is far too young to drive one, Lego is the next best thing. A sportscar-loving kid will appreciate this set, but so will a Lego-loving adult who can build this and put it on display with pride, probably with their other builds. The set includes 806 intricate pieces to create a replica of the luxury vehicle, complete with moving V10 engine, steering, and doors that can open and close.

Save $50 on the PlayStation 5 Slim, otherwise known as the PS5 Slim. The console is digital-only so you can play games through online downloads versus discs — with one nice workaround.

In the meantime, this PS5 offers a massive 1TB drive, you can store tons of downloadable games. Everything loads quickly and games look divine, especially on a fabulous high-def TV or monitor. With more than 2,500 reviews, one happy buyer says that “getting better graphics on older games is a whole new experience.” And the PS5 delivers a nice selection of Sony-exclusive titles like God of War, The Last of Us, Astro Bot, Horizon Forbidden Dawn and Marvel’s Spider-Man, to name just a few.
