Black Friday/Cyber Monday is still over a month away (Thanksgiving is on November 28 this year – I looked it up so you don’t have to). So while we wait for the shopping event’s best discounts of the year, there are still some great sales going on on tech we review and recommend.
For example, the Space Gray M2 MacBook Air (our pick for the best budget Apple laptop) is $700 off with an on-page coupon. For those ready to make (very tasty) ice cream at home, Ninja Creami has a $40 off coupon code.
Lots of Anker batteries and accessories are on sale too, plus we’ve got discounts on select video games to round out the savings. Here are this week’s best tech deals you can still get today.
Use code CREAMI40 to get $40 off list price directly from Ninja. The 7-in-1 ice cream maker isn’t your typical appliance, as we explained in our Ninja Creami review. It’s based on the machines you’d find in restaurants, and makes uniquely high-end frozen treats.
This powerful battery is mentioned in our guide to laptop batteries. It packs a lot of extra charge for laptops, tablets, and phones, and can also be paired with an optional dock to conveniently recharge the unit. This sale price is about $5 higher than the lowest price ever.
Other Anker batteries are also on sale at Amazon right now, including this MagSafe compatible option for half price.
While it’s not a record low price — it dropped to $60 over Labor Day — it’s a solid discount on our pick for the best Bluetooth tracker for use with Samsung devices. We like the shape of the fob as well as the large search network that calls out to other Samsung devices in the wild to locate your lost items.
Apple released its Series 10 Watch just over a month ago and it’s down to its lowest price ever. The wearable earned 90 points in our review thanks to its thin frame and large screen and it’s our favorite smartwatch overall. The 42mm model is down from $399 to $370 in jet black and the 46mm model is down from $429 to $399 in jet black and silver aluminum.
If you have smaller wrists (or are planning on replacing watch bands) you can pick up the AW Ultra 2 with a titanium case for around $100 off. This sale only applies to the smaller size of the Alpine Loop in indigo or olive. This is still the current model of Apple’s largest smartwatch, as no new model arrived during Apple’s iPhone 16 event in September.
On any given day, I’m testing (and therefore needing to recharge) one to four electronic devices — ereaders, smartwatches, portable batteries and more — plus my own phones and gadgets. This compact box is the only thing with enough ports to handle everything at once. I wish I’d bought it on sale.
