Acer Chromebook Spin 713.
Photo: AcerAcer Chromebook Spin 713 is one of the Best Chromebooks on the market. The pretty screen can be used as a tablet thanks to its two-in-one design and battery life that keeps it going for hours (no matter what configuration you’re using). This beats other good deals we’ve tracked for this particular model.
This recent sale beats every other deal we’ve tracked for the Jabra Elite 85T (9/10, Recommend with WIRE). These rugged earbuds have physical controls, water resistance, active noise cancellation, and a two-year warranty. They are special good for training.
I (Louryn) own and love these headphones. I have had them for many years. They’re not the newest or the best and don’t have active noise cancellation, but they pair super-fast with iOS devices, thanks to the W1 chip inside (Android users can still pair just fine). ). I like the stylish design and comfortable ear cups, plus the Beats’ signature bass balance, which is especially great when listening to rap and metal.
This deal matches the best we’ve tracked for these headphones-sunglasses. Bose frame tempo is Great for training, especially for cycling. You can read more about them in our guide to The best wireless workout headphones.
Samsung T7 portable SSD.

In our guide to The best portable storage drive, we mark this as the best option when it comes to speed. Fast money transfer time. Usually, the biggest downside is its price, but this deal matches the lows we’ve seen only once before (during last year’s holiday shopping season). Smaller size options are also on sale.
Solid state drives have no moving parts, making them faster than hard drives. An internal SSD like this can be used to speed up your current or future desktop. This is $5 more than the lowest WIRED price tracked.
This is not your average hard drive. It’s an absolute powerhouse, a beefy behemoth meant to be used for massive backups. We recommend it in our guide to Best external hard drive. It’s not speed, but that’s not what this is meant for. You don’t have to go all out and get this to the best of your ability; Other, smaller sizes are also on sale. Check out our guide to How to back up your digital life for further instructions.
A newer, faster version of this, the Flex 5i, is featured in our guide to Best Chromebooks. While we prefer the 5i, the Flex 5 is still a good little machine, especially at this price point. The 2-in-1 design gives you the option to use the laptop as a tablet, and the processing power is right for anyone doing schoolwork or casual web browsing.
We usually like Surface Laptop Go. The design is beautiful and modern, the device is thin and light, and the battery life is quite good. Our biggest concern is with the low resolution screen. For frequent travelers or remote workers flying from place to place, this is still a solid choice. Our test Microsoft Surface Buying Guide for further advice.
NS OnePlus 8 billion basically on sale every holiday shopping. This price compares to what we’ve seen in other seasonal events. The phone has a gorgeous display, a good camera, and an attractive turquoise color option. We think it’s often overpriced, but this sale makes it all the more palatable.

Razer Kiyo Pro.
Photo: AmazonRazer Kiyo Pro is one of the favorite webcams, but its MSRP is too high. This is a much more reasonable price for this 1080p camera. It has a much larger sensor than brothers and sisters are more affordable, allowing it to deliver excellent picture quality, although you’ll need to tweak some settings in Razer’s Synapse app.
Amazon, Best buy, Target ($50)
Viper’s ambidextrous design allows for easy clicking, scrolling, and cutting, no matter if you’re left-handed or inverted. Its more expensive brother made our list of Best gaming mouse. Built-in RGB lighting and physical switches allow for more customization, and the small footprint won’t get in the way of what you do best: throw the whole game. (Is it just me?)
This small smart screen can quickly show you the weather and time, and it also has Google Assistant built in (although functionality suffers a bit due to the tiny 4-inch screen). We like the built-in USB-A port, which can be used to charge your other smart devices without too many messy wires on the nightstand. This deal has popped up a few times, but it’s still a good way to upgrade your nightstand without spending a lot of cash.
