This deal has been around for a while, but it's a great one. The price is the same as what we saw for Black Friday and Cyber Monday. The WIRED recommends the device because it has a great camera and great battery life. The affordability is icing on the cake.

This is one of the best MagSafe accessories. The built-in magnets make attaching the tripod to the compatible iPhones quick and easy, and the flexible legs allow for perfect positioning in nearly any filming environment. We have not seen it sell for less.

Both desktop computers and consoles can be used with the HyperX Cloud Stinger headset. I use one every time I play a game. It's hard to find a better option at this price point, as it has good sound quality and comfortable ear cups. Check out our list of the best gaming headsets.

The newer generation of headphones are nearly as good as the ones that were previously discounted. Money can buy some of the Best Workout Earbuds.
The WIRED recommends a pair of Sony headphones. You get some of the best audio quality for the money, as well as excellent noise canceling technology, long battery life, and a comfortable fit. They're well worth it, even though they dip to this price frequently. You can find the best headphones or earbuds by taking the Headphone Quiz.

This deal may not be available in some zip codes. We like accessories from PowerA since official Nintendo hardware is hard to find and rarely discounted. The cord is 10 feet long, so it shouldn't be hard to use. The official Nintendo controller is better, but it's five times more expensive, so if you need an extra controller for a game, this may work. For more ideas, read our full list.

It is nearly impossible to find discounted computer components right now. The liquid cooling system has two fans and an RGB pump head, which will keep your rig's temperatures low. The iCUE software from Corsair allows for fan speed control, lighting adjustments, and automated fan curves. Our guide on how to build a desktop PC has more recommendations.

Amazon

The Kiyo Pro is one of the Best Webcams thanks to the automated light-adjustment software. It comes with a 90-day money-back guarantee and has been tested by professionals to make sure it is up to par. If the item doesn't perform as it should, Amazon will replace it.
This microphone is recommended in our guide to the best podcasting gear. It's one of the cheapest we've seen, and it has a smart knob and light meter that allow you to adjust sound quality in real time.

It's usually affordable, but saving $50 makes it even more appealing. This incredibly rugged phone has expected features like good battery life and a bright, balanced display, but we especially like the headphone jack and super-strong glass.

Apple.

The best iPad for most people is this one. It has all of the bells and whistles one would expect from an iPad, in addition to a better display and improved internal storage, plus it's compatible with older accessories. There's also an upgraded front-facing camera. The price is fine. For a few months it has been between $300 and $330 It's better to get something on sale than to pay full price, so if you're going to buy it, now is a good time to do so.
Bose's newest noise-canceling product has been on sale for this price since Black Friday. We loved the older version, and these are even nicer, with improved microphones and better battery life. The noise cancellation is useful for both meetings and roommates.

This is the best flash drive we've seen, and it's down to a match of the cheapest price. It's fast and durable, and there's a built-in loop that you can attach it to a key ring. The drive has a lifetime warranty. The sale is on Sandisk and Western Digital storage.

IRobot.

The best high-end robot vacuum is this one. Since Black Friday, it's been this price, but it was more expensive before that. It has a good self-navigating feature, and can learn your daily routine to make automated cleaning even more convenient.

The models were $60 during Black Friday week, but this deal still saves you $20 off the normal price. It's the best deal we've seen since August. If you don't need to brew a lot of coffee at a time, this is a great coffee maker to keep in an office or spare bedroom. It has a container that can hold up to 9 coffeepods, which will help simplify your countertop. You can use your own coffee grounds and cut back on plastic waste with a reuse coffee Pod.

There are deals on everything.

These eco-friendly sweatpants are available in both men's and women's sizes. The price is more appealing than subpar pairs we've tried, and they're incredibly soft and comfortable. Every pair of trees is planted by the company.

This bright hoodie is a pick from our guide to the Best Loungewear and is available in a wide array of colors and sizes. The roomy front pocket is great for sleeping during the cold winter months.

This sweatshirt is my favorite. It's fun and colorful, and while it keeps me warm, the fit makes it work in warmer weather as well as deep winter cold. Despite many washes, the colors stayed bright.

This sweat-proof undershirt is a great base layer, and the neckline makes it work for almost any outfit. It adds a layer of warmth but not bulk, and it can be worn several times in a row without washing.

Ori and the Will of the Wisps and Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition are included in the physical game. WIRED staffers love both of them. The stories offer both hope and catharsis. This price is the lowest we have ever seen.
