We have some great deals to finish off your weekend. Those who prefer over- ear cans and true wireless earbuds will find good prices on some of Sony's top-of- the-line headphones.

For good reason, the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones were our top pick for the best headphones you can buy for a long time. The newer and pricier WH-1000XM5 is an excellent option with great sound quality, noise cancellation, and the ability to fold down for easier storage, but the XM4 is still an excellent option with great sound quality, noise cancellation, and the ability to fold down for easier storage.

If you are an Amazon Prime subscriber, you can get an additional $20 discount on the WH-1000XM4 headphones if you order through the Woot app on your mobile device. The low price on these that we last saw around the holidays has been dropped to $249.99 with free shipping. We recommend you to read our review.

There are some of the best noise-canceling headphones on the market right now. They can last up to 30 hours on a single charge and come with plush ear pads. On August 20th, Amazon Prime members can get an additional $20 off.

• $250 at Woot (in-app)
• $350 at Best Buy

There are further stipulations you need to know about the Sony WF-1000XM4 earbuds, but they are currently on an excellent offer. The international model of the Sony WF-1000XM4 noise-canceling earbuds are on sale for $199.99 on the website. Since they are imported, there is only a 90-day warranty on these earbuds. There is a 30 day return window if you are unsure. Amazon Prime subscribers who order via the app today will get an extra $20 off, and the price of the buds will be dropped to $1799.99.

Thanks to their superior noise cancellation, detailed sound quality, and awesome battery life, the Sony earbuds are the best earbuds to buy. We recommend you to read our review.

The sound quality is second to none and the noise cancellation is the best in the industry. The earbuds have a new design with a rating of IPX4. On August 20th, Amazon Prime members can get an additional $20 off on an imported international model with a 90-day warranty.

• $180 at Woot (in-app, 90-day warranty)
• $250 at Best Buy

There is one more deal worth mentioning in the obsessive attempts to get you to use the app. The Animal Crossing Edition of the Nintendo Switch console is on sale for $30 off for Amazon Prime subscribers, and $10 off for others. It's hard to deny that this is the same Switch that was launched back in 2017! This edition is one of the three Switches I own and it is the most charming.

The Joy-cons and embossed design on the rear are quite the treat, but you don't get a pack-in copy of Animal Crossing: New Horizons with this switch. The $40 saved on this one-day deal is offset by most or all of the cost of the other games on sale right now.

The Animal Crossing-themed console dresses it up with light blue and green Joy-Con, color-matched hand straps, a white dock, and a unique embossed pattern on the console's back panel. It doesn't come with a copy of the game, but it matches the game's look.

For a limited time, anyone can get the original Galaxy Buds Pro in white for just $129.99 at Amazon and Best Buy. That is close to their all-time lowest from Black Friday. In our review, they are looking and sounding good, but they are $30 more expensive than the prior model, and they are coming out very soon. If you don't feel the need to upgrade to the latest model, this deal on the older Buds Pro is an excellent value, as some extra features are only available in theGalaxy line.

Good active noise cancellation and IPX7 sweat and water resistance can be found in the original Buds Pro. The microphones aren't up to snuff compared to newer earbuds, but the money saved may help you forgive. We recommend you to read our review.

Some more sweet Saturday deals:

• If you love a game that mixes a brutal challenge with beautiful visuals, the digital version of Cuphead is $13.99 ($6 off) on the Nintendo eShop, Microsoft Store (Xbox), and Steam (PC). That small sale nearly offsets the cost of its excellent DLC that just launched recently.
• The remaster of the classic 1997 shooter Doom 64 is available for free right now on PC via the Epic Games Store. You have until August 25th at 11AM ET to claim it.
• Costco has Apple’s base-model Mac Mini with M1 CPU, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage for an all-time low price of $569.99 (about $119 off) through Sunday, August 21st. If you’re not a Costco member you can pay a 5 percent surcharge which adds $33.50 — still a very fair price for this bang-for-the-buck desktop computer. Though don’t forget you need a monitor, keyboard, and mouse to go with it. Read our review.
• The Turtle Beach Recon controller for Xbox and PC is $44.95 ($15 off) in either black or white at Amazon. This wired USB-C controller is excellent for playing online shooters thanks to its programmable rear buttons and audio features to allow you to better hear enemy footsteps. The cheaper Turtle Beach React-R model just recently launched in the USA at $39.99, but for just $5 more the Recon is a better buy. Read our review.
• A prepaid digital voucher for a one-year PlayStation Plus Essential subscription is $39.16 at Eneba with discount code PSP. The exact price may fluctuate a bit, but it should remain around $20 off for the duration of the deal. If you have the higher tiers of PlayStation Plus Extra or Premium you can redeem this deal and get a prorated extension.
