If you’ve got international travel coming up, an adapter is essential for keeping your phone, earbuds, power banks, and other gadgets charged. Anker’s Nano Travel Adapter is one of our picks from our guide to the best gadgets for summer travel because it can charge up to five devices at once, yet it’s small enough to fit in the palm of your hand. It’s also available in black for just $19.99 ($6 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and directly from Anker (with code WS7DV2BNB82J) matching its best price to date.

The Nano’s four built-in sets of prongs should keep you covered in “over 200 countries and regions,” according to Anker. It also features two USB-C ports and two USB-A ports, along with an AC outlet for plugging in a standard wall charger. A single USB-C port delivers up to 20W, which should be enough to get an iPhone 17 to 50 percent in less than 30 minutes. That’s not enough power to charge most laptops, making the USB ports better suited for smaller gadgets like phones, tablets, earbuds, and power banks. You can still charge your laptop, however, by plugging its wall charger into the AC outlet.

What’s more, it’s designed to take up as little space as possible. The adapter’s only an inch thick with its prongs folded in and, at 3.8 ounces, weighs less than a smartphone. Just keep in mind that the Nano doesn’t convert voltage, so you’ll want to make sure gadgets like hair dryers and electric razors support the voltage at your destination before plugging them in. 

The start of a new school year can feel hectic, as parents juggle their kids’ classes, extracurriculars and sports on top of work, appointments, and other responsibilities. It’s easy for things to slip through the cracks, but Skylight’s shared smart calendars can help keep everyone on track, and from August 2nd through August 9th they’re up to $90 off.

The sale includes the 10-inch Skylight Calendar for $119.99 ($50 off), the 15-inch Skylight Calendar 2 for $259.99 ($20 off), and the 27-inch Skylight Calendar Max for $479.99 ($90 off). The 10-inch model takes up the least amount of space, though the newer, larger 15-inch Calendar 2 features faster performance, a brighter display, and swappable magnetic frames. The 27-inch Calendar Max, meanwhile, offers the sharpest and largest screen and must be mounted to the wall (the other models can stand on a table or be mounted), making it the easiest option for large families to view from across the room. 

Regardless of which model you choose, every Skylight Calendar includes the same set of organizational features. Each member of your household can have their own color-coded profile, and each can sync events from Google, Outlook, Apple, Cozi, or Yahoo calendars. You can also create shared lists for groceries, chores, and other to-dos that everyone can access from the calendar or the companion mobile app, and even send your grocery list to Instacart with a couple of taps. Built-in weather forecasts also can help you plan around upcoming events, and you can also share calendar access with family members and trusted contacts. 

You get even more perks if you subscribe to the $79 per year Plus Plan (the first month of the service is free to try). Skylight uses AI to automatically turn emails, photos, flyers, and spreadsheets into calendar entries. It also adds meal planning, tools for assigning and rewarding completed chores, and a mode that displays your photos like a digital picture frame.

There are an overwhelming number of Prime Day deals to sort through, which is why we spend so much time highlighting products we’ve already tested and can stand behind. But our recommendations are only one way to identify a worthwhile deal: another is seeing which products fellow Verge readers actually buy.

Below, we’ve rounded up the deals that have resonated most with readers who spend as much time thinking about tech as we do. It’s a great way to see what people actually think is a great deal — and what products everyone has been waiting for a price drop on.

Some of the favorites are exactly what you’d expect, like AirPods and Kindles. Others, like Birdbuddy’s camera-equipped smart bird feeder, were a more surprising. If you’re looking for some shopping inspiration, or are simply curious what your fellow readers have been adding to their carts, here are the products that have proven most popular so far during Prime Day.

The Google TV Streamer 4K is more than just a terrific streaming device. It can also act as a smart home hub, letting you control all major smart home devices directly from your TV. Thanks to Prime Day, it’s now on sale for $74.99 at Amazon for Prime members, matching its best price to date. The streamer usually retails for $99.99, making this a $25 discount. If you don’t subscribe to Prime, it’s just $5 more at Best Buy and direct from Google.

The Google TV Streamer 4K is a great fit for people already invested in Google’s ecosystem. The device lets you control your TV with your voice via Gemini, while the Google TV interface pulls recommendations from across your streaming services and even displays Rotten Tomatoes scores. Setup is also quick and straightforward, taking only about 10 minutes in our testing. One particularly nice touch is that Google asks which streaming services you subscribe to during setup and then downloads the relevant apps for you, so you don’t have to install them one by one.

Beyond streaming, the device doubles as a Matter-compatible smart home hub, making it easy to check your front door camera when the doorbell rings, turn off the lights, or adjust compatible thermostats and other smart devices without getting up. Google has also added a few extra conveniences, including a remote-finder function and an ethernet port for a more reliable connection.

Welcome to day two of Amazon’s four-day Prime Day event, which, if we’re being honest, looks a lot like day one. That’s actually good news, though, because many of the best deals are still around, and some new ones have joined them. If you’ve got a Prime subscription, whether through a free trial or a discounted student membership, you’ll find our favorite deals below.

Not every Prime Day deal deserves your attention, so we’ve filled this guide with products we know and genuinely like. Our team has spent years living with, testing, and comparing everything from robot vacuums and TVs to headphones and smart home gadgets, and the deals below are the ones we can confidently vouch for. We’ve also sprinkled in matching prices from retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, and Target whenever we find them, so you don’t necessarily need a Prime membership to save.

If you’re shopping for something specific, we’ve got dedicated roundups covering Apple gear, budget-friendly picks, smart home devices, TVs, and much more. We’ll also be updating this guide throughout the day as new deals pop up and old ones disappear, so check back occasionally.

Laptop deals

• The days of multi-hundred-dollar discounts on MacBooks are behind us for now, but the base 14-inch MacBook Pro with an M5 chip for $1,549 ($150 off) at Amazon and Best Buy is still a solid deal. It’s powerful enough for the average content creator, comes with 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage, and has lots of ports. Read our review.

• Moft has a variety of deals on its origami-style cases and stands. You can get its folding 2-in-1 Laptop Carry Sleeve, a sleek laptop case that doubles as a portable stand, for $51.96 ($13 off) at Amazon in four sizes and up to 11 different colors. Or, if you don’t mind some adhesive, the Moft Laptop Stand in select colors is $19.99 ($5 off) at Amazon. The super thin attachment sticks to the bottom of your laptop to give you a fold-out stand anywhere you go.

E-reader deals

• The tiny, charming 4.3-inch Xteink X4 e-reader that can magnetically snap onto surfaces, even to the back of MagSafe-ready phones, is down to $55.20 at Amazon (originally $69). Read our review.

• Amazon’s Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition (its moniker for the 32GB version that supports wireless charging and has an auto-adjusting front light) is down to its best-ever price when purchased as a bundle. The “Essentials Bundle” that includes the e-reader, a leather cover, and a wireless charging dock is $257.97 at Amazon. Its normal price was previously around $354. The 16GB version that lacks the Signature features but includes the leather cover is $182.97 at Amazon. Read our review.
• The other color e-reader that Amazon sells, the Scribe Colorsoft, is available in a bundle that’s steeply discounted. The 32GB model that includes a pen, leather folio, and a power adapter is $549.97 at Amazon, down from its usual sale price of $729.97. It’s a fantastic deal considering just the tablet and pen typically sell for $629.99 and hasn’t previously been discounted. Read our review.

Headphone and earbud deals

• Sony’s last-gen WH-1000XM5 noise-canceling headphones are selling for $198 at Amazon, which is the retailer’s best price yet. The set debuted for $399.99 and only really started dropping in price when its successor was released. While the XM6 gets the edge in terms of sound quality, comfort, and for having a foldable design, the XM5 are still fantastic — arguably the best over-ear headphones you can get at this price.

• The second-gen Bose QuietComfort Ultra over-ear headphones are selling for $379, one of their best prices yet, at Amazon. Originally $449, the noise-canceling headphones boast improved battery life with ANC switched on (up to 30 hours per charge), plus the ability to play lossless audio via their USB-C port, just like the AirPods Max 2.

• The original Pixel Buds A are still around and kicking, and still a fine deal if you just want the basics. They’re on sale for just $49 ($50 off) at Amazon. Read our review.

• JBL might not be the first brand you associate with great over-ear noise-canceling headphones, but its Tour One M3 Smart Tx are a sleeper hit that’s currently down to its best price yet at Amazon. You can grab them for $249.95, which is $200 off their original price. They’re comfortable, and they sound great. But what sets them apart from competitors is the Auracast-compatible audio transmitter that lets the headphones connect to (and share) audio with other Auracast devices.

Charger and battery deals

Smartwatch and wearable deals

• The Apple Watch Series 11 has dropped to $279 in the 42mm GPS configuration (originally $399) at Amazon, which is $20 lower than it has previously sold for. $299 has been the normal sale price for the past few months, but those patiently waiting for another price drop have been rewarded. If you want the larger 46mm GPS model, that’s down to $309 at Amazon, which is another new low. Given it’s the latest model, it will support watchOS 27 as well as at least a few major software updates to come. Read our review.

• You can buy the Apple Watch Ultra 3 with an Ocean Band, Trail Loop strap, and Alpine Loop strap for $649 ($150 off) at Amazon, which is a new low price. The Ultra 3 is Apple’s most rugged and feature-packed smartwatch, making it a great choice for athletes and outdoorsy folks. It delivers up to 42 hours of battery life — six hours more than its predecessor — and features a larger wide-angle OLED display with a refresh rate that goes down to just 1Hz for battery savings, plus slimmer bezels. It also supports both satellite connectivity and 5G. Read our review.
• Google’s Pixel Watch 4 has gotten discounts in both 41mm and 45mm sizes, whether you want the basic Wi-Fi/GPS feature offering, or you want to upgrade to the model that supports LTE. Originally $349.99, the 41mm GPS model is $289.99 at Amazon, while the 45mm version is $319.99. The LTE versions are $334.99 ($115 off) and $399.99 ($100 off). The Pixel Watch 4 is the best smartwatch for Android users (perhaps until the leaked Pixel Watch 5 launches), particularly for those who use a Pixel phone. Read our review.

• For Android smartwatch options that costs less, and are really only useful for Samsung phone owners, the Galaxy Watch 8 and Watch 8 Classic are discounted to $237.99 and $349.99, respectively. These are savings of $100 at minimum. Read our review.

Phone deals

• The Nothing 4A Pro is down to $509.99 at Amazon, a hearty discount from its original $599 price. It’s the biggest, most high-end phone you can get for around this price, if you don’t want to settle for the Pixel 10A. Its 6.83-inch screen has a 144Hz refresh rate, but really what sets this one apart is its unique design. The Glyph Matrix display on its rear that can show the time or show an icon to alert you of notifications.

Gaming deals

• OLED gaming monitors that offer super-fast refresh rates are cheaper than usual during Prime Day, and several of them are from Asus. The company’s Strix XG27ACDNG 26.5-inch 1440p QD-OLED with a 360Hz refresh rate is down to $534 at Amazon. Its previous best price was $599.99, and it didn’t come around often. The next step up is the Swift PG27AQDP WOLED 1440p monitor with 480Hz refresh rate. It costs $664 during Prime Day at Amazon, down from around $800. Finally, the Asus ROG Swift PG27UCDM, a 4K QD-OLED with a 240Hz refresh rate, is $934 at Amazon — its best price yet that’s $265 off its original price.

• Metroid Prime 4: Beyond for the Nintendo Switch 2 is down to $44.99 in physical cartridge format at Amazon, down from $69.99. It’s the biggest deal we’ve seen yet for the Switch 2 version of the game. Previously, we’d seen $40 deals for the original Switch version, but to unlock faster loading and better graphics, Switch 2 owners would have to pay $10 for the upgrade pack.

Robot vacuum and mop deals

• The Roborock Q10 S5 Plus is down to $264.99 ($285 off) at Amazon, which matches its lowest price to date. The Q10 S5 Plus is one of our favorite budget-friendly robot vacuum / mop hybrids, combining good AI-powered obstacle avoidance with automatic carpet detection. It also features a vibrating mop that does a solid job scrubbing hard floors while lifting itself over rugs, and the set includes a self-emptying dock for added convenience. It can’t match the suction power or tall threshold-climbing abilities of pricier models like the Saros 20, but this is a good value under $300.

• Dreame’s X60 Max Ultra is on sale for $1,344.99 ($355 off) at Amazon, which is its best price to date. We highly recommend the Dreame X60 Ultra for homes with lots of carpet, as it combines powerful 35,000Pa suction with dual rubber brushes that excel at lifting hair and debris. It can also climb over tall thresholds and thick rugs with ease, while its spinning mop pads do a good job on hard floors and automatically detach when vacuuming carpet. Other highlights include quiet mop washing and drying along with a slim design that can fit under low furniture.
• Dreame’s L40 Ultra Gen 2 is on sale for $384.99 ($265 off) at Amazon and $399.99 directly from Dreame. It delivers powerful 25,000Pa suction, AI-powered obstacle avoidance, and a self-cleaning dock that empties the dustbin, washes the mop, and refills its water tanks. Unlike the X50 Ultra, however, it lacks the ability to climb high thresholds or stairs.

• You can buy the SwitchBot K11 Plus on sale for around $189.99 ($210 off) at Amazon and directly from SwitchBot with code PDDAY53, which is $10 more than its best price. It’s a tiny bot with an equally small self-emptying dock, making it a great fit for smaller spaces. Its suction power tops out at 6,000Pa, but it’s still an effective cleaning machine with a rubber roller brush and a single side brush that does a solid job picking up dirt, dust, and debris from both hard floors and carpets.

4K TV and monitor deals

• 55 inches is a good size for TVs, and getting one as good as the TCL QM6K for only $447.99 ($50 off) at Amazon is worth it. It’s particularly good for someone looking for a lower-priced gaming TV, as it supports high refresh rates up to 4K/144Hz with a PC (or 1080p at 288Hz) with VRR and has low input lag. It’s not the light cannon that more expensive TCL TVs are, but in a light-controlled room there’s enough brightness for watching or playing anything.

• The 32-inch Asus ProArt 6K display is $999.99 at Amazon during Prime Day, down from its original list price of $1,299. The IPS monitor can display up to 6,016 x 3,384 resolution, and it covers 98 percent of the DCI-P3 gamut and 100 percent of the sRGB gamut. It features HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4, plus two Thunderbolt 4 ports that can deliver up to 96W of power for laptops and be used to daisychain with other monitors.

• A smaller 27-inch 5K ProArt display from Asus is down to $634 at Amazon (usually priced around $780), marking its best price yet. The PA27JCV seems like a solid alternative if Apple’s Studio Display or other options are a little too pricey. The ProArt monitor features a built-in KVM switch, HDR support, and a bevy of connectivity options, including HDMI, DisplayPort, and USB-C (with up to 96W charging).
• Dell makes a 27-inch 4K monitor with USB-C video-out, and it’s selling for just $251.72 (originally $349.99) at Amazon. Beyond being a good pick for easy connectivity with a Mac, or a Windows machine that supports USB-C video, the display has solid specs, like a 120Hz refresh rate, AMD FreeSync Premium adaptive sync to prevent screen tearing, and USB-C charging up to 65W PD. A 1440p version with similar specs (but a faster 144Hz refresh rate) is just $199.99.

Home theater deals

• The WiiM Sound smart speaker (in black or white) that has a built-in circular display and supports multi-room pairing is down to $239.20 at Crutchfield from $299. The HomePod-esque speaker uses AI to adjust sound to fit your room, and it’s platform-agnostic, so it can work with practically any streaming service.

• Hisense’s Dolby Atmos-ready 5.1.4 soundbar system is discounted during Prime Day. The AX5140Q costs $329.99 at Amazon, which is $70 off its original price. The 40-inch soundbar includes forward- and upward-firing speakers, a wireless subwoofer, plus two wireless satellite speakers that have their own forward- and upward-firing drivers. I wish I had gotten this set instead of the Vizio Elevate SE — it’s good, but this seems a lot better for the price. The soundbar features multiple ways to connect devices, including aux-in, optical-in, plus two HDMI inputs, one of which supports eARC.

• The Era 100 SL that lacks a microphone is $20 less, costing $159 at Amazon during Prime Day. If you don’t feel the desire to get chatty with your electronics, this is an easy way to save $20 on your next Sonos speaker.
• Sony’s Bravia Theater Bar 9 soundbar is down to $998 at Amazon during Prime Day. It typically retails for $1,498, though it also typically sells at this very discount during other big shopping events, like Black Friday. The 43.3-inch soundbar packs a whopping 13 speakers, including a mix of forward-, side- and upward-firing speakers.

• Bose’s Smart Ultra soundbar has dropped to $699, down from its original $999 price, at Amazon. To be transparent, this price was available ahead of Prime Day, so it’s not a brand-spankin’-new deal. However, it’s a good deal if you’re considering building out a Bose speaker ecosystem with a few of its Lifestyle Ultra wireless speakers that can extend the sound.

Streaming device deals

• Amazon’s Fire TV Stick 4K Max is its highest-end streaming stick, and it costs $34.99 at Amazon. It’s a good price considering its relatively speedy performance, plus support for Dolby Vision and HDR10 Plus HDR formats, along with Dolby Atmos audio. It works with Wi-Fi 6E routers, too.
• Most people looking for an affordable streaming stick should opt for the Fire TV Stick 4K Max, but if you want to save a little money and don’t mind slower performance (and fewer features), the Fire TV Stick 4K Select will get the job done. It’s down to $17.99 at Amazon, which is just $2 more than the model that tops out at 1080p resolution.

Smart home deals

• The foundation of a good smart home is Wi-Fi, so if you’re still rocking a router with Wi-Fi 6 or even 5, Prime Day is a good time to upgrade. All of Amazon’s eero mesh Wifi routers are on sale, and its flagship eero Wifi 7 Pro is down to $549.99 from $699.99. If you don’t need that much power, the equally capable eero Wifi 6E is down to $329.99 for a three-pack.

• The rubbed-bronze version of the versatile Yale Assure Lock 2 with WiFi is $70 off on Prime Day, discounted to $189.98. This lock features a real keypad, not a touchscreen, along with support for all the major smart home platforms, including Apple Home (although it doesn’t work with Home Key).

Misc. gadget deals

• The company’s Xreal 1S smart glasses are also discounted during Prime Day. You can pick up a pair for $399 (normally $449) at Amazon. While nearly identical in terms of design to the pricier One Pro (they also feature three degrees of freedom, letting you pin virtual content in place), their field of view and clarity aren’t as good. Additionally, their optics let in more light, so they aren’t as good of a pick unless you intend to view content mostly in dimly-lit spaces. Still, they’re comfortable, with great build quality, and they’re easy to use.

• The 11-inch M4-powered iPad Air is on sale for $519 ($79 off) at Amazon and Best Buy, which is its best price to date. The Air is a sizable step up from Apple’s entry-level iPad, combining a faster M4 chip with 12GB of RAM, Apple Intelligence features, and support for the Apple Pencil Pro. It also includes newer connectivity standards like Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6, making it more future-proof. Read our review.

• Cricut’s Maker 4, a capable cutting machine that can make detailed cuts, draw, write, engrave, and more, is down to $379 during Prime Day at Amazon. It’s a big discount off its usual $449 price, and the best price we’ve seen since an early January discount.
• For something simpler and smaller, the Cricut Joy 2 Essential Bundle includes the Joy 2 automatic cutting and drawing machine, plus numerous materials to get you started. It’s down to $109 (originally $139) at Amazon, the lowest price we’ve seen. The Ultimate Bundle with even more materials and tools is $146 (originally $209) at Amazon. Read our review.

• Wearable lights from Glocusent that make it easier to read or do hobbies with your hands are always popular with Verge readers. The company’s bendable neck light that supports three color temperatures and six levels of brightness is down to $16.24 (originally $28.99) at Amazon. It’s not a big discount from its normal price of about $19, but it’s also not a lot of money for what might become a staple in your everyday carry setup. It’s rechargeable via USB-C, and can last up to 80 hours per charge.

The best robot vacuums are the ones you barely have to think about, and the Roborock Saros 20 fits that description well. It’s why it’s one of our favorite robovac / mop hybrids, and thanks to Prime Day, you can get it on sale at Amazon and Roborock for $1,359.99 ($240 off), a new low price.

In her testing, our smart home reviewer Jennifer Pattison Tuohy said the Saros 20 was the first robot vacuum she truly trusted to clean every room without getting stuck. Its excellent obstacle avoidance and low-profile design help it navigate around clutter and slip under low furniture. What’s more, it’s also the first robot vacuum Tuohy tested that could climb the two-inch transition between her bedroom and bathroom and make it over her thick living room rug. It’s also pretty hands-off in other ways, with Matter compatibility that lets you control it with your voice via any major smart home platform when you don’t feel like reaching for the phone.

The Saros 20 is equally impressive when it comes to mopping. Instead of a roller mop, it uses a pair of spinning mop pads that do a better job scrubbing tile floors and cleaning along grout lines, while also extending further into edges and corners. It supports warm-water mopping, and the pads can automatically detach and reattach when needed, helping keep carpets dry. Plus, its dock automatically empties the dustbin, washes and dries the mop pads, and can go up to 65 days between dustbin changes.

And, of course, vacuuming performance is also top-notch. With 36,000Pa of suction, the Saros 20 excels on hard floors, picking up everything from dust to pet hair. Tuohy found that only our top overall robovac pick, the Matic, did a better job on hard surfaces, while the Saros 20’s DuoDivide brush is designed to resist hair tangles, reducing the amount of maintenance required.

The easiest way to save on a streaming service is often to pay for a year upfront, which HBO Max is currently making a lot cheaper. Through July 15, 2026, new and returning subscribers can get 28 percent off any of HBO Max’s yearly plans, bringing the ad-supported tier down to $78.99 ($31 off) per year, the Standard plan to $132.99 ($52 off) per year, and the Premium tier to $164.99 per year ($65 off). That’s up to 40 percent less than paying month to month.

All three plans include access to HBO Max’s extensive library of movies and TV shows, including films from Warner Bros. Pictures, DC Studios, A24, Studio Ghibli, and Turner Classic Movies. Subscribers can also stream recent Oscar winners and nominees like titles like Sinners, One Battle After Another, and Marty Supreme, alongside other HBO Max originals. On the TV side, you’ll also get access to popular series like The Pitt, Hacks, Euphoria, and Heated Rivalry, as well as longtime favorites such as Game of Thrones, Friends, and The Big Bang Theory. 

The biggest differences come down to features. The ad-supported Basic plan lets you stream on up to two devices simultaneously, while the Standard plan lets you download up to 30 shows and movies  for offline viewing. It also includes access to live sports from the likes of the MLB, U.S Soccer, college football, NHL, and more. The Premium tier lets you stream on up to four devices at once, supports 4K and Dolby Atmos, and increases offline downloads to 100 titles.

If you’ve been wanting to buy a robot vacuum but have been put off by how much it can cost to get a good one, now is not a bad time to start looking. We’re now on day two of Prime Day, and Amazon, along with retailers like Best Buy and Walmart, is offering discounts on several models we’ve tested from brands like Roborock, Dreame, and Shark. Whether you’re looking for a basic robot vacuum that can cut down on the amount of vacuuming you have to do or a high-end model that can wash and dry its own mop pads and climb over room thresholds, there are deals available across a wide range of price points.

• The Roborock Q10 S5 Plus is down to $264.99 ($285 off) at Amazon, which matches its lowest price to date. The Q10 S5 Plus is one of our favorite budget-friendly robot vacuum / mop hybrids, combining good AI-powered obstacle avoidance with automatic carpet detection.

It can’t match the suction power or tall threshold-climbing abilities of pricier models like the Saros 20, but this is a good value under $300.
• The Tapo RV30 Max Plus is another excellent budget-friendly option that’s on sale. It includes a self-emptying dock and costs $199.99 ($200 off) at Amazon. You don’t get AI-powered obstacle avoidance with this one, and its 5,200Pa suction isn’t the most powerful we’ve seen, but it’s still a capable cleaning machine with a wide mop pad that performs surprisingly well. The RV30 Max also offers excellent lidar-based navigation, support for room-specific cleaning, and Matter compatibility, allowing you to control it through all the major smart home platforms.

• Dreame’s X60 Max Ultra is on sale for $1,344.99 ($355 off) at Amazon, which is its best price to date. We highly recommend the Dreame X60 Ultra for homes with lots of carpet, as it combines powerful 35,000Pa suction with dual rubber brushes that excel at lifting hair and debris. It can also climb over tall thresholds and thick rugs with ease, while its spinning mop pads do a good job on hard floors and automatically detach when vacuuming carpet. Other highlights include quiet mop washing and drying along with a slim design that can fit under low furniture.

• You can pick up the Dreame X60 Max Ultra’s predecessor, the Dreame X50 Ultra, for $849.99 ($750 off) at Amazon, which is $50 more than its best price to date. While its 20,000Pa suction isn’t quite as powerful as the X60 Ultra’s and it can’t tackle especially high thresholds as well, it’s still an excellent robot vacuum-mop hybrid. Its edge cleaning also isn’t quite as effective as the X60 Ultra’s, but you’re otherwise getting many of the same features for a lot less.
• Dreame’s L40 Ultra Gen 2 is on sale for $384.99 ($265 off) at Amazon and directly from Dreame with code L40UGWS. It delivers powerful 25,000Pa suction, AI-powered obstacle avoidance, and a self-cleaning dock that empties the dustbin, washes the mop, and refills its water tanks. Unlike the X50 Ultra, however, it lacks the ability to climb high thresholds or stairs.

• The original Narwal Flow is available for $649.99 ($500 off) at Amazon, which is its best price to date. Like the Flow 2, it offers a self-cleaning roller mop along with a dock that automatically empties the dustbin and washes the mop and a tangle-resistant brush. The tradeoff is that it lacks the Flow 2’s upgraded AI-powered obstacle avoidance, uses lower-temperature water when washing the mop, and delivers slightly less suction power.
• You can buy the SwitchBot K11 Plus on sale for around $189.99 ($210 off) at Amazon and directly from SwitchBot with code PDDAY53, which is $10 more than its best price. It’s a tiny bot with an equally small self-emptying dock, making it a great fit for smaller spaces. Its suction power tops out at 6,000Pa, but it’s still an effective cleaning machine with a rubber roller brush and a single side brush that does a solid job picking up dirt, dust, and debris from both hard floors and carpets.

• The Dreame L10s Pro Ultra is down to $349.98 when you buy it at Amazon, matching its best price to date and $950 less than its original launch price in 2024. Despite its age, it still offers a self-cleaning dock that can wash and dry its mop pads, dispense cleaning solution, refill its water tank, and empty its dustbin. It also features AI-powered obstacle avoidance. Its 7,000Pa suction is lower than Dreame’s newer models, and it can’t climb tall thresholds, but it’s still a lot of robot vacuum for the price.
• The Shark Navigator Robot Vacuum RV2110 has dropped to $179 ($121 off) at Amazon. While we’ve previously seen it go for as low as $129.99, that’s still a notable 40 percent discount on the basic bot. The Navigator uses lidar-based navigation to create a map of your home and is equipped with a brushroll designed to minimize hair tangles.

Update, June 24th: Adjusted prices and availability and added deals for the Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow.

We’re seeing good early Prime Day deals ahead of the event next week, and unsurprisingly, some of the best deals are on Amazon’s own devices. Several Echo speakers have dropped to new low prices, including the Echo Dot Max, which is on sale for $64.99 ($35 off) at Amazon.

Our smart home reviewer Jennifer Pattison Tuohy named the Echo Max her top pick among Alexa speakers, calling it “Amazon’s best all-around smart speaker.” The elegant, fabric-wrapped speaker delivers plenty of bass, and comes with its own dedicated tweeter and woofer that provide crisper sound than its predecessor. It’s also faster and more responsive, with Amazon’s AZ3 Neural Edge processor helping it hear voice commands more accurately, even if you’re speaking from across the room or over background noise.

The Echo Max also doubles as a capable smart home hub with support for Zigbee, Matter, and Thread, allowing you to connect and control a wide range of compatible smart home devices from brands beyond Amazon. It also supports Alexa Plus, Amazon’s more context-aware AI-powered voice assistant, which can handle multiple requests at once. That means you can do things like dim the lights and lock the doors without having to issue separate commands. In our reviewer’s testing, Alexa was even able to turn off the hallway lights, adjust the upstairs thermostat, and start a robot vacuum in the kitchen all at once.

Read our Echo Dot Max review.

Amazon’s Prime Day is one of the biggest shopping events of the year, and the four-day sale for 2026 begins June 23rd at 3:01AM ET and ends at the same time on June 27th. It will grant Prime members access to some of the best prices of the year on Amazon devices, as well as those from Sony, Sonos, Bose, Anker, Apple, and other well-known (and lesser-known) brands we cover at The Verge.

As always, you can count on us to publish only the best deals from Amazon — as well as any worthwhile ones featured at Walmart, Best Buy, Target, and other competing retailers. That said, if you want to be sure you catch any and all deals that are most important to you, we’ve compiled some helpful tools and advice.

Below, we’ve spilled a few of our best deal-hunting tips, from how to use automated price trackers to the different ways you can set up your own personalized deal alerts. All of these methods and tools are free to use, and once you put in just a little bit of work, you can rest easy knowing that you don’t need to take much action until it comes time to make a purchase.

Use a price-tracking tool or deal aggregator

CamelCamelCamel and CamelMart

CamelCamelCamel tracks the price of every product sold on Amazon and can send you alerts only when they reach the price that’s right for you. Once a product reaches the desired price you’ve set (or goes below it), you’ll get an email about it. CamelCamelCamel only works for products on Amazon, so you’ll need to use one of the other methods below if you want to track price movement at Walmart, Best Buy, Target, and other retailers.

To track prices and get alerts via email, you’ll first need to create a free account. We also suggest installing the site’s browser extension, called The Camelizer, which lets you see pricing trends on a product-by-product basis, and allows you to set your desired price without navigating away from Amazon. It’s fantastic and easy to use.

And, if you already have a wishlist saved on Amazon, you can import it into CamelCamelCamel.

The developers also make Camelmart, which is its price tracker for Walmart. It’s just as good as its Amazon-exclusive tracker, which is nice if you prefer shopping at Walmart, or just want to track prices. You can find and save items you want to keep tabs on, view its pricing history, and set a price alert that’ll ping your email so you can quickly make a purchase. There currently isn’t a browser extension you can use alongside shopping at Walmart, but our fingers are crossed that one gets made.

Slickdeals

Slickdeals aggregates some of the best deals around the internet, as discovered by its team and community of users. It’s a great place to find a curated set of deals on things you might be interested in. The site also allows you to create deal alerts based on keywords, but they work a little differently on Slickdeals than they do on the above sites.

You can type in a product name, like “Sonos Era 100” or a retailer’s name, and once it’s added to your list, you’ll be notified of a deal alert if it meets your criteria. You can set it to alert you to any deal related to your keyword, or you can filter out deals so that you’ll be notified if, for example, the deal is popular enough to make it to Slickdeals’ front page or has earned a high rating from the community. Setting these keywords a little too broadly may result in frequent notification pings and emails, though, so you’ll need to use some discretion and find the right balance of how aggressively you want Slickdeals to notify you.

Keepa

Keepa is another handy tool you can use to track and compare Amazon prices over time. Like CamelCamelCamel, Keepa provides charts that track pricing trends and will alert you when it finds a deal. You can also import any wishlists you’ve previously saved on Amazon.

Unlike CamelCamelCamel, however, you don’t necessarily need to create an account in order to track prices with Keepa. You just need to install the extension, and Keepa will automatically add a price history graph to supported product listings. The embedded extension features different tabs as well, one of which showcases pricing history and another that allows you to specify various pricing details. Once you’ve set your desired price, you’ll then receive price alerts via email, push notification, or RSS.

Alexa for Shopping

Amazon’s “Alexa for shopping” tool will show you pricing history for most products, and let you set a price alert. If you’re using a desktop or laptop computer, you can access the feature by clicking “Price history” next to the price listed in the middle of the product page. You may also be able to find a button for it in the main nav bar of Amazon’s homepage.

However you access it, Alexa for Shopping will summon a widget that can show you price history for product, which can be toggled up to a year ago. There is also an option in the widget to let you set a price alert. It will likely offer some price suggestions based on data, but you can type in your desired price. You’ll receive a deal alert to the email address associated with Amazon if the price drops accordingly. You can also set the tool to automatically buy the product if it drops to a certain price.

Set up deal alert notifications through Alexa or the Amazon app

If you’re a Prime member who owns a fourth-gen Echo speaker or a newer model, you can also request that Amazon send you deal notifications up to 24 hours ahead of time on products you’re interested in. Amazon can alert you to price drops on eligible products in your shopping cart or wishlist, as well as anything you’ve marked as “saved for later.” To enable the feature, tap More > Settings > Notifications in the Alexa app, and then tap Amazon Shopping. Then, scroll down to Shopping Recommendations and enable Deal Recommendations. Once done, you’ll receive a notification on both your device and your Echo speaker (the latter in the form of a yellow ring) notifying you of the deal.

Alternatively, you can sign up to receive deal alerts regarding products you’ve recently viewed in the Amazon Shopping app, as well as those related to your recent search history. If you’re a Prime member, you just need to navigate to the Prime Day event page in the mobile app between now and Wednesday, October 8th, to create an alert. Once done, you’ll receive push notifications for any deal(s) you’ve subscribed to when the event begins. You can also just open the Amazon Shopping app and tap Settings > Notifications > Deals and Recommendations before toggling “Savings” and / or “Recommendations.”

Look for deals outside of Amazon

Prime Day is meant to show off Amazon’s huge retail presence, so, naturally, other retail chains take notice. Because of this, you can sometimes find better deals at retailers like Target, Walmart, and Best Buy. At the very least, they may be able to match Amazon’s pricing if you ask.

If Amazon’s upcoming sale doesn’t have everything you want, or if you just want to make sure you’re getting the best deal, shop around a bit. For example, Walmart will soon host a Walmart Deals event from June 22nd through June 28th. Target is getting in on the deals, too, with Target Circle Deal Days happening the same span of time as Prime Day. Lastly, Best Buy is hosting its Tech Fest sale from June 22nd through June 29th. And as usual, you’ll be able to find all of our deals coverage in and outside of Amazon here.

Trust the experts

We’re a discerning bunch here at The Verge, so don’t fret if you’re going into this without any prep. We’ll be corralling the best tech deals and keeping our coverage up to date in the run-up to the main event this week. So mark June 23rd on your calendar, sign up for Amazon Prime and our Verge Shopping newsletters, and maybe start putting aside a little spending cash.

Amazon’s Prime Day is now in its second day, and whether you’re looking for a new pair of wireless earbuds or a smartwatch, there’s a good chance you’ll find a discount. The Apple Watch Series 11 has already dropped to a new low price, while the AirPods Pro 3 are discounted to $179. With Tim Cook warning that price hikes are coming, now may be the moment if you’ve been eying one of the company’s devices.

Below are the best Apple deals currently available. Some are exclusive to Prime Day, while others are simply great discounts we think are worth highlighting. We’ll continue updating this guide throughout Prime Day, highlighting more deals as they become available.

Earbud and headphone deals

• The AirPods 4 are on sale at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy for $99 ($30 off). Apple’s entry-level earbuds offer richer bass than previous generations along with a more robust IP54 rating for water and dust resistance. They match the latest AirPods Pro in voice call quality and work well with other Apple devices too, though they lack more advanced features like active noise cancellation. It might be a pro or con to some that this model simply rests in your ear. They don’t create a tight seal like the AirPods Pro.
• The AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation and wireless charging are also on sale at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy for $148.99 ($30 off). It’s a solid deal, but given the AirPods Pro 3 are currently available for about $30 or so more, we’d recommend buying those instead. They drown out noise better and offer additional features like a heart rate sensor that justify the small price difference. Read our review.

• The Beats Powerbeats Fit are on sale for $159.95 ($40 off) at Amazon and Best Buy, which is $20 shy of their all-time low and their second-best price to date. Like all Beats earbuds and headphones, the noise-canceling Fit are platform-agnostic and natively support a number of iOS and Android features like one-step pairing and Find My support. The Beats Fit Pro successor also features a redesigned wingtip with built-in silicone fins and ear tips that are designed to provide a more secure fit during workouts than traditional earbuds.
• The Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 are on sale for $179.95 ($90 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart, which is also $20 shy of their all-time low price. Their ear-hook design helps keep them securely in place, while Apple’s H2 chip grants access to AirPods Pro features like Adaptive Audio, Conversation Awareness, and better noise cancellation than you’ll get with the Powerbeats Fit. Plus, unlike the Fit, they support wireless charging. Read our review.

• The Beats Solo 4 have dropped to $99.95 ($100 off) at Amazon and Walmart, which is $10 more than their all-time low we saw last year. The wireless headphones offer a noticeable step up in performance from the Beats Solo 3, delivering more detailed sound and support for lossless audio over the included USB-C or 3.5mm cable. They also provide up to 50 hours of battery life, plus comfortable memory foam ear cushions, though they don’t include active noise cancellation. Read our review.
• You can buy the Beats Studio Buds Plus on sale for $89.95 ($80 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target, which is one of their better prices to date. The wireless earbuds offer good active noise cancellation along with four swappable ear tips for a comfortable, secure fit (though perhaps not as secure as the Powerbeats Pro 2). They also sport a slick translucent colorway and can last up to 27 hours on a single charge. Read our review.

Apple Watch deals

• You can buy the Apple Watch Ultra 3 with an Ocean Band, Trail Loop strap, and Alpine Loop strap for $649 ($150 off) at Amazon, which is a new low price. The Ultra 3 is Apple’s most rugged and feature-packed smartwatch, making it a great choice for athletes and outdoorsy folks. It delivers up to 42 hours of battery life — six hours more than its predecessor — and features a larger wide-angle OLED display with a refresh rate that goes down to just 1Hz for battery savings, plus slimmer bezels. It also supports both satellite connectivity and 5G. Read our review.

• If you’re looking to change up the look of your Apple Watch Series 11, Woot is selling a variety of Apple Watch bands starting at $14.99 ($35 off) through June 26th. They’re available in multiple colors, sizes, and styles, and the deal marks a new low price.

iPad deals

• The 11-inch M4-powered iPad Air is on sale for $519.99 ($79 off) at Amazon and Best Buy, which is its best price to date. The Air is a sizable step up from Apple’s entry-level iPad, combining a faster M4 chip with 12GB of RAM, Apple Intelligence features, and support for the Apple Pencil Pro. It also includes newer connectivity standards like Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6, making it more future-proof. Read our review.
• The 13-inch M4-powered iPad Air is on sale for $699.99 ($100 off), which is its second-best price, at Best Buy. The tablet is identical to the 11-inch model, but sports a larger display that’s better suited for multitasking.

Other Apple deals

• You can buy a pack of four first-generation AirTags on sale for $69.99 at Woot, which isn’t the lowest price we’ve seen but still a decent $30 discount off the original price. The last-gen AirTags aren’t as precise as the newer model and don’t feature as loud of a built-in speaker, but they still offer more impressive item tracking than other competitors when paired with an iPhone. Read our review.
• The 13-inch MacBook Air is available with an M5 chip, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD for $949.99 ($149 off) at Amazon, which is $50 shy of its all-time low price. The 15-inch model, meanwhile, is also on sale at Amazon and Best Buy for $1,149, which is also $50 more than its record low. Both laptops deliver excellent everyday performance, with SSD read and write speeds that rival the M5-powered MacBook Pro, along with long battery life, a comfortable keyboard, and support for Wi-Fi 7. Read our review.
• The Apple Magic Mouse is on sale for $59.99 ($19 off) at Amazon, which is a new low price. The wireless mouse features a multi-touch surface for gestures like scrolling and swiping between web pages, and a battery that lasts about a month on a single charge. It also pairs automatically with compatible Macs and charges via USB-C.

Update, June 24th: Adjusted prices and availability.

If you’re looking for a cheap Father’s Day gift that delivers more than you’d expect for the price, Nothing’s Ear (a) are a good option. The wireless earbuds are currently on sale as part of a larger early Prime Day sales event, making them an even better value than usual. Right now, you can buy them at Amazon in black complete with Nothing’s slick translucent charging case for $53.20 ($47 off), which marks a new all-time low. You can also buy them in yellow (Amazon, Nothing) and white (Amazon, Nothing) for just $3 more.

The Nothing Ear (a) are one of our favorite affordable pairs of wireless earbuds, and for good reason. They offer a surprising number of features for their price, including a low-latency gaming mode that helps reduce lag while playing games. Nothing phone owners can also access ChatGPT with a quick pinch gesture, while support for multipoint Bluetooth pairing lets you stay connected to two devices at once. The earbuds also work with Android Fast Pair and Microsoft Swift Pair, making setup quick and painless.

More importantly, they nail the essentials. The earbuds deliver expressive, enjoyable sound, while offering noise cancellation to cut down on distractions. Nothing has also improved voice call performance with AI-powered voice isolation, which helps your voice come through more clearly in noisy environments. Three sizes of silicone ear tips are included to help you find a secure fit, while their IP54 rating provides protection against sweat and light rain. Battery life is solid, too, lasting up to eight hours before you need to recharge.

More good deals from Nothing’s sale:

If your electricity bill climbs every summer, a smart thermostat could help keep cooling costs in check. The Amazon Smart Thermostat is an excellent option for its price, especially today. It’s down to just $57.99 at Amazon as a part of Amazon’s early Prime Day sale, which is the best price we’ve seen since Black Friday.

For a smart thermostat that costs under $100, the Amazon thermostat offers a lot of helpful features. One of its most useful is its ability to  learn and adapt to your routines, reducing the need to constantly tweak the temperature yourself. It’s also compatible with most 24-volt HVAC systems, and adjusts itself accordingly depending upon whether or not you’re asleep or at home. The app lets you create schedules and monitor energy usage as well, giving you a sense of how much AC you’re using so you can make adjustments before your next utility bill arrives.

Plus, it’s a particularly good buy if you’re embedded in Amazon’s ecosystem. It’s compatible with Amazon’s Alexa, allowing you to adjust the temperature using voice commands or the mobile app. You can also create Alexa Routines so it can work alongside other compatible smart home devices like Amazon’s $44.99 ($25 off) Smart Air Quality Monitor, setting up automations that adjust your home’s temperature when certain indoor air quality conditions are detected. So long as you’re fine going without native temperature sensors, this smart thermostat is an excellent value for the price.

If you’re planning on traveling anytime soon, Bose’s second-generation QuietComfort Ultra headphones are a great companion for long flights and train rides. Not only do they offer excellent noise cancellation, but they also retain the foldable design of their predecessor, making them easy to pack in a carry-on. They’re even easier to recommend today, now that they’ve dropped to a new low price of $379 ($70 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart. 

The over-ears improve upon their predecessor with better noise cancellation and support for lossless audio over a USB-C cable, allowing you to enjoy higher-quality sound from compatible devices. Bose also added a new Cinema Mode that helps make movies and TV shows feel more immersive while making dialogue easier to hear, along with an improved transparency mode that surpasses the predecessor’s capabilities of reducing sudden loud noises. Battery life is better too, with the headphones lasting up to 30 hours on a single charge — a six-hour increase over the first-generation model. 

Bose has also added a few other conveniences, including the ability to automatically enter a low-power standby mode when stored in the included case or laid flat. Plus, the headphones automatically power on and reconnect to a paired device when you put them on. At the same time, the new model retains soft ear cups and a comfortable, lightweight design that’s easy to wear for hours a time. Support for multipoint Bluetooth pairing remains as well, allowing you to stay connected to two devices simultaneously, so you can watch a video on your laptop and answer calls from your phone.

Whether you’re planning a backyard barbeque or a World Cup watch party, Govee’s Table Lamp Classic can help set the mood with color-changing lighting effects. Right now it’s down to just $59.99 ($20 off) at Amazon, which is its best price yet.

The rechargeable lamp can last up to 30 hours on a single charge, so it should have enough power to last for multiple hangouts. It’s easy to carry to wherever you need a little extra light. Just bear in mind the lamp isn’t weather resistant, so you’ll want to keep it away from the pool and bring it inside if it’s going to rain. It’s also not particularly bright, shining at up to 500 lumens at peak brightness.

The lamp supports adjustable color temperatures ranging from a warm 2700K glow to a cooler 6500K. It also offers dozens of preset scenes and colorful lighting effects — even one that can sync to your music. If you want something more personalized, Govee’s app even lets you generate custom lighting effects with AI. 

Better yet, you don’t have to leave your seat to make changes. The lamp supports Matter and works with major smart home platforms, allowing you to control it with your voice or through Govee’s app.

A few more Verge-approved deals 

• JBL’s Charge 6 Bluetooth speaker is on sale in gray for $79.95 ($70 off) at Woot with a 90-day warranty, which is its best price to date. The speaker is rugged, with an IP68 waterproof and dustproof rating, plus it can double as a power bank, making it a great companion for outdoor adventures. It can last up to 28 hours on a single charge, and delivers good sound quality via Bluetooth. The Charge 6 supports lossless audio playback over USB-C.
• The Moto Tag is on sale for $19.99 ($10 off) at Amazon, which matches its all-time low and is the best price we’ve seen since February. The excellent Bluetooth tracker works with Google’s Find Hub network and stands out from other Android-friendly alternatives by offering ultra-wideband support. On compatible phones like Samsung’s Galaxy S26, that means it can help you track down misplaced items with precise, turn-by-turn-style guidance, similar to Apple’s AirTag.
• The Keurig K-Elite Single Serve Coffee Maker is down to just $99.99 (about $110 off) with code HAPPYDAD at Keurig, which is its best price of the year and $10 shy of its all-time low. The machine can brew five cup sizes from four to twelve ounces and features an iced coffee setting that starts with a hotter brew to extract more flavor from the K-Cup before cooling things down so as to not melt your ice completely. It also comes with a large 75-ounce water reservoir allowing you to make up to eight cups before having to refill, along with an on-demand hot water function for tea and oatmeal.

Even at full price, the Roborock Q10 S5 Plus offers impressive value, boasting features typically reserved for pricier robovac models at a fraction of the price. That’s especially true today. It’s down to just $269.99 ($280 off) at Wellbots when you apply promo code NEW10, which matches its all-time low and is the best price we’ve seen since Black Friday last year. If you prefer a different retailer, you can also buy it at Amazon and directly from Robovac for $10 more.

The robovac is one of our top picks if you’re on a budget, with good AI-powered obstacle detection and navigation that helps it clean around clutter without getting stuck. It also boasts automatic carpet detection and a mop that can lift itself over rugs, so you don’t need to worry about carpets getting wet. The flat vibrating mop pad also impressed us in testing and is particularly gentle on delicate floors, able to scrub away dirt effectively without leaving them soaked. When it finishes cleaning, the included dock automatically empties the robovac’s dustbin and recharges the bot, reducing the amount of maintenance required.

Of course, there are some compromises Roborock made to keep costs down. Unlike Roborock’s much pricier $1,600 Saros 20, the Q10 S5 Plus can’t climb taller thresholds, and its 10,000Pa suction isn’t nearly as powerful as the Saros’ 36,000Pa system. The dock also lacks conveniences like automatic mop washing and water-tank refilling, meaning you’ll still need to handle those tasks yourself. Still, for under $300, it’s hard to complain given everything else the Q10 S5 Plus brings to the table.

Nothing is more frustrating than buying a new pair of headphones, an OLED TV, or a laptop just to find out that you could have gotten it for cheaper somewhere else just a few days or weeks later. That’s why, in order to keep customers happy and prevent them from shopping elsewhere, some retailers offer price-matching policies in which they promise to match a lower price found elsewhere. That kind of information comes in handy no matter the time of year, but it’s especially helpful during shopping events like Amazon’s Prime Day 2026 sale, which kicks off June 23rd and lasts through June 26th.

What follows are the price-matching policies for a number of major retailers. There are a few things to note here. First, every retailer has its own set of rules and restrictions. We’ve summarized some of them here, but we recommend visiting the provided links and reading the policies carefully. Second, most retailers that serve as a marketplace for other sellers, specifically wholesale retailers like Costco and Sam’s Club, don’t offer any protections, and many traditional stores won’t match their prices.

Lastly, there are always exceptions to the rules. If you’re looking for a deal on a product and you know it’s available for a lower price elsewhere (or it was previously offered at the same retailer), it never hurts to call or chat with a customer service rep and ask if they’ll match the price. You have nothing to lose but time, and there’s always a chance they may find a loophole or make a special exception.

---

Amazon

Amazon doesn’t offer price matching. Full stop. You can contact customer support, but even if you’re an Amazon Prime customer, it’s not likely that they’ll help you out.

That being said, Amazon does offer a liberal return policy, meaning you can often return an item you purchased from Amazon if it’s available for less elsewhere (or at Amazon). Then, you can just repurchase the product wherever it’s cheapest.

Target

Target used to let shoppers price match identical items sold by select retailers, including Amazon, but no longer does so. Under its current policy, shoppers can only request a price adjustment if they find an identical qualifying item for less than they paid on Target.com, at their local Target store, or through an eligible Target Circle deal. Target will also price match Target Plus Partner (the retailer’s name for third-party sellers) items if the same Target Plus Partner on Target.com has it for less, or with a Target Circle deal. Price matches can be requested at the time of purchase or within 14 days after purchase.

To request a price match, you’ll need to show the online price or digital version of the ad and provide your original receipt or packing slip; screenshots and photos aren’t accepted. Alternatively, you can call for online purchases at 1-800-591-3869 or chat online via contactus.target.com.

However, that Target’s policy excludes in-store price matches from other Target stores. It also can’t be combined with Target Circle Bonuses, Target coupons, Registry coupons, or gift card promotions, and doesn’t apply to clearance, closeout, liquidation, damaged, used, open-box, refurbished, pre-owned, or rent-to-own items. In addition, Target won’t match prices between items sold directly by Target and those sold by third-party Target Plus Partner sellers.

Best Buy

Best Buy’s Price Match Guarantee states that a product could be eligible for a price reduction if it’s new, identical to the competitor’s product, immediately available at a qualifying competitor’s store or on its site, and not shown on Best Buy’s exclusion list — that includes “items for sale the Thursday before Thanksgiving Day through the Monday after Thanksgiving.” Items must have the identical model number and color. However, disclaimer here: Best Buy only matches prices that are available to all customers and does not match membership-exclusive, loyalty-program, or paid-member discounts, thus it excludes events like Amazon Prime Day.

To get the difference, you have to contact Best Buy via its on-site chat and provide the ad or website with a lower price point. Alternatively, you can call 1-888-237-8289 or visit any Best Buy or Pacific Sales store. Approved retailers include Amazon, B&H Photo, Apple, Costco, Sam’s Club, Target, and Walmart. Items must be sold directly through the store, too, not a third-party seller.

Best Buy will also, upon request, match an in-store or online price that was lowered during the return and exchange period, which typically lasts up to 15 days. Keep in mind that the return window on most products is 60 days for both Best Buy Plus and My Best Buy Total members.

Walmart

Walmart doesn’t price-match competitors, though Walmart’s online store offers price matching on items purchased from Walmart stores if the item is in stock at Walmart.com.

However, the policy doesn’t apply to residents of Alaska, Hawaii, or Puerto Rico. Additionally, it doesn’t apply to special event prices, like those seen during Black Friday. Walmart also does not retroactively price-match items purchased on Walmart.com that have dropped in price after the time of purchase. The retailer doesn’t price-match items purchased from Walmart Marketplace retailers or third-party sellers, either, and Walmart says the ultimate decision for a price match comes down to the store manager on duty when you make the request.

Apple

While we’ve seen claims that Apple will price-match up to 10 percent on products bought at certain major retailers, there is no official policy on the company’s website.

If Apple reduces the price of an Apple-branded product within 14 days of when you receive it, you can visit an Apple Store or contact Apple Support at 1-800-MY-APPLE to request a refund or credit for the difference. However, this doesn’t apply to special promotional pricing, such as Black Friday or Cyber Monday deals.

B&H Photo

B&H says that it might be able to honor a current lower price or match the price of a competitor, but it does so on a case-by-case basis. You have to contact its customer service team using the on-site chat, email, or by calling 1-800-606-6969 / 1-212-444-6615. If approved, B&H Photo will price match one identical item per customer.

Costco

Costco does not price match with competitors. However, according to its website, it will issue a credit for the difference between the price a member paid and the promotional price if you bought the item online at Costco and requested the credit up to 30 days before the price change. If you bought the product from a Costco warehouse location, visit the membership counter at the store where you made the purchase. Costco doesn’t price-match items purchased at Costco warehouses with items purchased on Costco.com.

Dell

Dell will price-match identical products from Dell, Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, Target, HP, Apple, Lenovo, and several other retailers. Dell will not match prices available at Costco or Sam’s Club. You can call 1-877-275-3355 or chat online to run a price check, but you’ll need to provide a link to the competitor’s product. Dell outlines the specs you’ll need to compare to determine whether an item is eligible for a price match before you contact them, and before you make a purchase.

You can also contact the company about a price difference within 30 days of purchase. However, Dell doesn’t match membership-only pricing or the exclusive discounts you’ll find during Amazon Prime Day. Items that are discounted as a Deal of the Week or Daily Deals through Dell’s Member Purchase Program are also ineligible.

eBay

eBay doesn’t offer price matching on purchases made during the week of Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday, but it does provide a generous price guarantee on select items outside that window. If you buy an item marked with the “Best Price Guarantee” badge — or one featured in eBay Deals — and find a lower price from an approved competitor within 48 hours, eBay will give you 110 percent of the price difference in the form of a coupon. That means you’ll receive a coupon worth the full difference plus an extra 10 percent, which you can use toward your next eBay purchase. Approved competitors include Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart.

The products must be new, unopened, and identical to the competitor’s item. You have to contact eBay Customer Service, and if they verify your claims are legitimate, you will receive the coupon and be able to use it toward your next eBay purchase. Only one item can be price-matched per day, however.

GameStop

GameStop does not mention an official price-matching policy on its website. In 2022, however, GameStop tweeted that the store will price-match items sold and shipped by Amazon as long as they’re available online or in-store. Although GameStop only mentioned Amazon in the tweet, others have reported that the store will price-match items purchased from Target and elsewhere.

Google

If a request is made within the standard return period, Google will match online pricing from select retailers — specifically Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, B&H Photo, Signifi, and Target. It doesn’t, however, match preorder pricing from other retailers or carrier deals. The product must also be in stock and identical, right down to the color and configuration. Plus, you need to provide a public link to the promo page or product listing to verify the lower price, and that item must be currently in stock. Items sold by third-party sellers are ineligible for a price match.

Amazon Prime deals are eligible for price matching, but other members-only discounts aren’t. Other exclusions apply, too, including wholesale and educational pricing; mail-in offers and coupons; product bundles; clearance, open-box, refurbished, and pre-owned items; and products sold by third-party sellers on a competitor’s website. Google will only provide a price match on smartphones and other products with data plans if they’re unlocked devices.

You may also receive the difference if the product you purchased from the Google Store drops in price within the standard return period, though you’ll need to contact Google directly to get the price match or correction.

The Home Depot

The Home Depot will match the price of identical, in-stock products from other retailers, except for membership-based wholesalers. The retailer must be able to ship the item to your location, so prices from regional retailers are ineligible. The price-match policy does not apply to special events like Black Friday, clearance prices, used and refurbished items, or rebate offers. You may request a price match within 30 days of your purchase.

You must bring the ad or listing to the register in-store. (You can also request price matches for online purchases that are shipped to the customer.) For online orders, you’ll need to provide the exact SKU for the item on both the competitor’s and The Home Depot’s sites. To request a price match over the phone, you can call 1-800-430-3376. Additionally, The Home Depot will only honor requests submitted by the original buyer.

HP

According to HP’s website, the company will match the current pretax price for new comparable PCs and identical HP printer, display, and accessory model numbers from nationally recognized online retailers, such as Dell, Lenovo, Amazon, Staples, Newegg, and Best Buy. The specs have to be the same to get a price match on PCs, but the product model number does not need to be identical.

You must ask for the match at the time of purchase by calling 1-800-888-0229 or via chat. You can’t request a price match via email, and the policy doesn’t apply to items purchased during promotional periods. It also doesn’t apply to membership stores like Costco and Sam’s Club, items purchased through a third-party vendor on an approved site, or items purchased using financing.

HP also offers price protection on HP-branded products. If a price drops during your 30-day return window, you can request an adjustment by emailing myhpsales@hp.com. This doesn’t apply to products purchased during certain seasonal sales events, including Fourth of July promotions and deals offered during Thanksgiving Week and Cyber Week.

Lenovo

Lenovo matches pricing on comparable PCs from Lenovo, HP, or Dell with the same key specs as long as they’re sold through a list of recognized retailers. That list includes bigger stores such as Best Buy, Walmart, Amazon, Newegg, and B&H Photo, as well as direct competitors such as Dell and HP. The comparable PC must also be in stock and readily available from both Lenovo and the competing retailer, and you have to contact a Lenovo sales rep with specific details about the specs and availability of the product you’re inquiring about in order to facilitate the match.

That said, you can’t use coupons or special discounts when requesting a price match, and the policy doesn’t apply to membership stores like Costco. The policy also doesn’t apply to “Marketplace” items where third parties fulfill the order, so double-check that you bought the product directly from the retailer. Build-your-own models are also ineligible for a price match. Lenovo’s separate Price Guarantee program, meanwhile, is limited to five eligible Lenovo products per customer per year.

Lenovo also offers a price guarantee refund for laptops and personal desktop computers bought from Lenovo.com within 30 days of purchase. To receive a refund, you must contact Customer Care and provide proof of the lower price for the identical product offered on Lenovo.com. This policy doesn’t apply to doorbuster or clearance products, however.

Lowe’s

Lowe’s will match the price of identical, in-stock products when you present an ad, product listing, or photo from a qualifying online or local retailer, including Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart. The product must be purchased directly from the retailer and not a third-party seller, however, and it doesn’t apply to special sales events like Black Friday and other holiday promotions.

Additionally, Lowe’s doesn’t match prices from one Lowe’s store to another, nor does it match any rebate discounts or those available only to a select group of customers (such as loyalty clubs). Clearance, seasonal, buy one get one free, and custom made items are also ineligible for a price match. To request a price match, you can head to the store, call 1-877-465-6937, or chat online.

Microsoft

Microsoft will refund you the difference if it drops the price of an in-stock physical product purchased online from the Microsoft Store within 60 days of your purchase being delivered.  The same policy also applies if you find the identical product on sale at a lower price at a qualifying retailer such as Amazon or Best Buy, though it doesn’t extend to the Surface Hub, HoloLens, Windows DevKits, or digital products.

Furthermore, some eligible products are subject to specific retailer exclusions. For example, price matches for Surface products at other retailers are limited to Amazon and Best Buy, while Xbox products are limited to the two aforementioned retailers as well as Target, GameStop, and Walmart. The price match policy excludes products from third-party sellers, clearance items, bundles, rebates, and prices only available after guests log in.

You’ll need to contact Microsoft’s Sales and Support team at 1-800-642-7676 within 60 days of delivery to request a refund. If you purchase an item from a Microsoft Experience Center, you’ll need to return to that location with your receipt. In both instances, Microsoft will credit the difference between the price you paid and the current lower price to your original payment method, which typically takes between three and five days to process.

Newegg

Newegg no longer matches prices from competing retailers. The company only price matches eligible items sold and shipped by Newegg (not third-party sellers), and the product must be identical. The lower price must also appear on Newegg.com within seven calendar days of your purchase. If approved, Newegg will issue the difference as credit that can be used on the site or app for up to 365 days. 

The match won’t apply to rebates, coupons, financing offers, bundles, clearance items, open-box and refurbished products. The policy also doesn’t apply to prices found at third-party marketplace sellers, or products on sale during major sales events like Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

Sam’s Club

You can request a price match against other Sam’s Club stores, but not competitors. Note that this doesn’t apply to items marked down or on clearance.

Update, June 11th: Updated to reflect current retailer policies.

Apple’s upcoming watchOS 27 update will bring Siri AI and other exciting features to the Apple Watch Series 9 and newer Apple Watch models. If you’re contemplating an upgrade, all colorways of the GPS-enabled 42mm Apple Watch Series 11 — the latest model — are on sale for $299 ($100 off) at Amazon, Walmart, and Target, matching its best price so far. You can customize your look by picking up a discounted Apple Watch band at Woot, starting at $14.99 ($35 off).

Apple’s Series 11 watch is a solid upgrade, especially for those who are still using an Apple Watch Series 6 or older. Battery life is one area where you’ll see big improvements, with up to 24 hours on a single charge. It also has a more durable, scratch-resistant design and bright, wide-angle OLED screen. While it has the same S10 chip as the $219 Apple Watch SE 3 that we recommend to most people, the Series 11 has a host of extra features, including hypertension notifications, an ultra-wideband chip, a brighter (and more pixel-dense) screen, plus a depth gauge, to name most of the differences.  

As previously mentioned it’s one of a few Apple Watch models that will support watchOS 27 when it arrives this fall. The update will bring a redesigned app grid, custom Wallet passes for cards that use barcodes or QR codes, and new Siri AI capabilities. Beyond asking Siri AI to handle a range of tasks from your wrist, it will also be able to surface information stored across your Apple devices, and let you continue conversations after starting them on your iPhone.

Three more ways to save 

• You can buy the Beats Studio Buds Plus wireless earbuds for $99.99 ($70 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, Target. That matches their best price so far this year, and includes the slick translucent option we were particularly fond of. The Studio Buds Plus deliver a good combination of excellent sound, solid noise cancellation, and comfort, while working well with both Android and iOS devices. They’re also water-resistant and last up to nine hours on a charge, with swappable ear tips for a more secure fit. Read our review.
• Fujifilm will be releasing a new Instax Mini 13 on June 25th, but if you’d rather save some money — or pick up a fun Father’s Day gift — Fujifilm’s Instax Mini 12 is on sale for $79.95 ($14 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target, which is one of its better prices in recent months. While it lacks Mini 13’s self-timer, the Mini 12 is an excellent instant camera, producing clear, natural-looking prints and offering a simple, beginner-friendly experience that’s easy for all ages to enjoy.
• The last-gen 11-inch LTE-enabled iPad Air with 128GB of storage is on sale for $499 ($250 off) at Best Buy, putting it at the same price as the Wi-Fi-only model. Its M3 chip isn’t as powerful as the newer M4’s, but it’s still fast, and it touts support for Apple Intelligence. It’ll be compatible with iPadOS 27 when it’s released in the fall, which adds Siri AI updates and makes transferring files to an external drive faster, among many other improvements. Read our review.
