Bose’s latest flagship headphones are a replacement for the Noise Cancelling Headphones 700 that offer a more travel-friendly design, spatial audio, better call quality, excellent comfort, and some of the best noise cancellation around. Read our review.

Bose’s QuietComfort Headphones, which replace the QuietComfort 45, have adjustable noise cancellation and the ability to set custom modes. However, they lack immersive audio mode and the higher-quality Bluetooth found in the QuietComfort Ultra Headphones.

The Elite 8 Active boast all the hallmarks of a premium pair of Jabra earbuds — good sound, reliability, etc. — while leaning into a more rugged, dustproof design.

  • If Jabra’s Elite 8 Active are out of your budget, the fitness-focused Jabra Elite 4 Active are down to $89.99 ($40 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target. While not an all-time low, that’s one of the better prices we’ve seen so far this year on the buds. They aren’t as capable or as rugged as the Elite 8 Active, which boast an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance, but they still deliver good sound, active noise cancellation, and an IP57 rating.

The Pixel 8 comes with just a couple of key upgrades over the Pixel 7, and it misses out on several higher-end features on the 8 Pro, like a telephoto lens. But its combination of price, features, and the promise of seven years of OS updates makes it one of the best mainstream Android phones. Read our review.

  • The Google Nest Thermostat is down to $99.99 ($30 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and the Google Store, which is one of its better prices to date. The 2020 smart thermostat is a good no-frills option that supports Matter, even if it can’t adapt to your habits.

a:hover]:shadow-highlight-franklin dark:[&>a:hover]:shadow-highlight-franklin [&>a]:shadow-underline-black dark:[&>a]:shadow-underline-white”>Robot vacuums

With the best AI-powered obstacle avoidance, excellent navigation skills, and superior cleaning power, the Roomba j7 is the bot to beat. It can be a bit rough with furniture, but it is aggressive at getting your floor clean. Read our iRobot Roomba j7 Plus review.

It’s not fancy, but the Q5 Pro has a huge bin and big wheels to get up on higher-pile carpets easily. It has a small removable mopping reservoir for when there are dirty paws on the floors, but its main job is to suck up dirt and pet hair, and it does very well at both.

  • Normally $899.99, the Roborock Q Revo is on sale for $699.99 ($200 off) at Amazon when you clip the on-page coupon. You can also buy it directly from Roborock. While it lacks AI-powered obstacle avoidance, the robot vacuum is plenty capable in other ways and can self-empty, clean its oscillating mops, and even refill its own water tank.

Roborock’s hybrid S8 robot vacuum and mop has a redesigned auto-emptying station that ensures you don’t have to empty the bot yourself after every round of cleaning.

The D10 Plus is a feature-packed midrange all-rounder and one of the least expensive bots that includes an auto-empty dock, mopping, and mapping. It’s an effective vacuum, but it’s prone to getting stuck. Thankfully, you can set keep-out zones to help with this.

  • Anker’s 40W USB-C car charger is down to $13.59 (about $4 off) at Amazon. It has two USB-C ports and an LED indicator to let you know it’s charging.

Belkin’s BoostCharge Pro with MagSafe supports 15W fast wireless charging with MagSafe-compatible iPhones and has a lengthy 6.6-foot built-in cable. Its 15W charging speeds and little kickstand make the BoostCharge Pro with MagSafe the best all-purpose magnetic charging puck.

  • Amazon has a 10,000mAh Anker 334 MagGo power bank down to $31.49 (about $9 off). You can get the same discount at Anker with code WS7DYF7UIH. It connects to the back of MagSafe-ready iPhones for wireless charging up to 7.5W, and you can recharge the battery itself at 20W speeds via USB-C (plus use the same port to charge other devices).

Kasa’s Smart Plug Power Strip provides six smart outlets with surge protection that can each be individually controlled via Amazon’s Alexa or the Google Home app. It also has three non-smart USB-A ports for powering phone chargers and other small devices.

The 2023 Fire HD 10 sports a 10.1-inch 1080p display and 3GB of RAM, which is plenty if you’re streaming or browsing. It’s lighter than the last-gen model, too, and comes with support for both the Made for Amazon Stylus Pen and Amazon’s handwriting recognition technology.

  • You can buy the Amazon Fire HD 8 starting at $64.99 ($35 off) for the ad-supported model with 32GB of storage from Amazon and Best Buy. Its eight-inch display isn’t as sharp as that of the Fire HD 10 and 11, but it’s still a decent no-frills entertainment device you can use to stream shows, check Instagram, play games, and read.
