Headphone deals
Logitech G Pro X (8/10, Recommend wired) to be Our pick of the top wireless headphones for most people. They strike the right balance between premium build quality and stellar sound quality without cutting the price tag too deeply. While we’ve seen them a bit cheaper than this during the holiday season, they’re still better-than-usual prices.
SteelSeries Arctis 7+ (8/10, Recommend wired) to be Our top picks for Nintendo Switch, but they’re great headphones for any platform. They have an impressive 30 hours of battery life, a low profile USB-C adapter, and if you’re playing on PC, SteelSeries’ highly customizable Sonar software.
Anker is one of the most trusted, budget-friendly accessory brands we’ve tested, and the company’s Soundcore noise-cancelling headphones are a great example of why. They are Our top picks for noise-cancelling headphones under $100 thanks to the combined active noise cancellation and up to 40 hours of music playback. Just make sure to click the coupon button before adding to your cart.
We like a lot of SteelSeries headphones, but if you want to save some scratches on them, the Arctis 1 is the one. Our top picks for gamers on a tight budget. They work with any major console and have detachable microphones that you can use for group chats.
There was a time when the Razer Opus (8/10, Recommend wired) is our top pick for wireless gaming headsets. And while we think the Logitech G Pro X has surpassed them, these are still great. They’re lightweight, have comfortable ear cups, and pair with an app with lots of EQ features for the best sound.
This SteelSeries wired headset is Our top picks for gamers if you want wired-only headphones. Arctic Pro comes with a DAC that allows you to adjust game volume, voice chat and sub tones separately, and they are extremely comfortable to wear for long periods of time.

I’ve been using the same Logitech desktop speakers for almost two decades, but the SteelSeries Arena 7 speakers (8/10, Recommend wired) was the first to convince me to upgrade. This set comes with rich speakers, a booming subwoofer, and what matters to any hardcore gamer: built-in RGB LEDs. There must be those.
We like this curved gaming monitor from Dell for its 1440p TFT LCD and spacious 27-inch curved display. It has a 165 Hz refresh rate and supports AMD FreeSync. It doesn’t have the extra bells and whistles of HDR, but for its normal price (and even more so when it’s discounted), it’s a great monitor for those on a limited budget.
The Surface Pro 7 2-in-1 is one of our favorite older tablet models. Although it may seem a bit outdated, this model has an Intel Core i5 processor, 8 GB of RAM and a 256 GB SSD, which is quite powerful, all considered.
If you’ve never used a desk lamp, your life could change just as our Review Editor Julian Chokkattu did when he started using this BenQ ScreenBar. It sits above your screen and can be set to auto-dimm. You can even adjust its color temperature using the touch buttons on the top.
This portable charger from Nimble is Our favorite power bank. It’s light, weighing just 6.4 ounces, but still packs a whopping 10,000 mAh capacity, the kind you might expect from much bulkier, heavier batteries. It can charge two devices at once, and Nimble uses bioplastics and minimalist packaging to help reduce the battery’s environmental impact.
Dyson V11 (8/10, Recommend wired) one of our older Dyson selection. And while we usually don’t recommend it at the normal price because for that money you can buy the newer V15, this sale has dropped a fair amount, making it worth considering.
Mujjo do some of our favorite iPhone casesand we especially love the leather MagSafe options. Right now, the entire store is offering at least 25% off all of the company’s cases, as well as some of their touchscreen-friendly gloves, which we also love.
