If you’re nursing a Halloween candy hangover, one way to feel better is to take advantage of some solid tech deals. The big one this weekend is Apple‘s tremendous MacBook Air (which earned our Editors’ Choice award) getting a price cut and a coupon at Amazon. If you’re not in the market for a new laptop, we’ve also got price cuts as much as 50% off of headphones, speakers, tablets and more. Here are the five best deals you’ll find this weekend.
These powder pink over-ear headphones might look light and fluffy, but they deliver powerful sculpted sound at a great price. In our review of the Beats Solo 4, audio expert Tim Gideon said that “with the signature Beats sound, fairly long battery life, and hands-free Siri, the Beats Solo 4 headphones are an evolution of a mostly successful formula.” You know what to expect with Beats headphones by now, and they’re well-suited for all sorts of music. The 40mm dynamic drivers featuring an updated acoustic architecture are well-tuned and loud.

Mechanical keyboard advocates swear that they transform the experience of using your PC, with a more natural and sensitive action giving you ergonomically satisfying typing and input. In our review of the Logitech G915, which is on sale at Amazon right now for 39% off, expert Mike Epstein said that it “sets a new benchmark in gaming keyboards,” thanks to lag-free wireless connectivity, excellent battery life and low-profile key switches that are comfortable and responsive. Our only caveat was that the list price felt a little high, but this discount handles that easily.

Best Buy has an unbeatable deal on a sturdy Bluetooth speaker that can take a licking and keep on rocking. In our review of the Sony XG300, writer Tim Gideon praised its “bass-forward performance” in testing, with circular passive radiators (2.8 inches in diameter) paired with dual front-facing woofers (2.4 by 2.7 inches) and tweeters (0.8-inch wide) creating a robust and assertive sound profile. The rugged exterior is IP67 rated for both water and dust and can be submerged for up to 30 minutes without issues. The capacious battery lasts for up to 25 hours on a single charge.

We gave an Editors’ Choice award to the 2022 MacBook Air in our review, with Apple expert Brian Westover saying that the luxe laptop “splashes out with a completely new look,” praising its thinner logic board, bigger screen and redesigned chassis that keeps the weight low while adding new features. Apple’s bespoke M2 processor is lightning-fast, and the backlit keyboard is smooth and responsive. This configuration ships with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD.

Most of Amazon’s Fire tablets are cut-price Android slates that are designed for casual gaming, light reading and streaming video. The Fire Max 11 keeps the same goals but boosts the hardware to make everything look and feel that much better. In our review, writer Dave LeClair said that “you’ll have a hard time finding a better value for the price,” noting the improved processor, vibrant 11-inch display and surprisingly robust audio. It’s a great pick for the less tech-savvy users you know, as Amazon’s digital ecosystem is familiar and easy to explore.
