Best Buy currently offers Apple’s 14-inch M3 Pro MacBook Pro for $1,799 shipped. This drops the 18GB memory and 512GB SSD configuration down from $1,999 to the second-best price yet. It’s the best in over a month, too. The savings get even better when you consider open-box models, which drop to $1,676.99 for an Open-Box Excellent model or even lower for other conditions from $1,604.99.
Amazon now offers the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 for $849.99 shipped. This discounts the unlocked 256GB folding smartphone in all four colors from its usual $1,000 price tag. It’s $150 off and the second-best price we’ve seen. Today’s offer is within $50 of the all-time low from back over Black Friday and Cyber Monday, while also marking the best discount we’ve seen since. The savings continue over to the 512GB capacity, which drops to $969.99 from its usual $1,120 price tag – the same $150 discount. We break down the experience in our hands-on review, as well.

As part of its Big Spring Sale, Amazon now offers the Lutron Caseta Smart Lighting Dimmer Switch Starter Kit for $79.95 shipped. This is $20 off the usual $100 price tag.

Even as more and more brands enter the market of trying to replace your existing light switches, Lutron’s Caseta ecosystem still provides one of the more reliable platforms for building out whole-home smart lighting.
ESR just recently launched its new 3-in-1 Qi2 Charging Stand, and I’ve been using it with my Apple setup for the past week. It might not be the most premium option on the market, but it’s the most affordable way to enjoy 15W speeds with a desktop form-factor, AirPods power pad, and Apple Watch charger.
As part of its Big Spring Sale, Amazon is now offering the ASUS Chromebook Vibe CX55 Flip for $589.99 shipped with 512GB of storage and 16GB of RAM. This is down from the usual $700 price tag and matches the Amazon all-time low at $110 off. We have seen it drop $20 lower at other retailers before, but that was just once – well before Black Friday of last year – the last time it was on sale. For comparison, Best Buy currently sells a lower-end model with 256GB of storage and 8GB of RAM sells for $599. That only shows you how good today’s all-time low is, letting you get double the specs for $10 less. Head below for more.

As part of its Big Spring Sale, Amazon is now discounting the entire lineup of Anker Prime chargers and power banks. It’s the latter category that’s really taking the spotlight, as the 27,650mAh Prime Power Bank drops to $124.99 shipped. You’d more regularly pay $180 with today’s offer delivering a new all-time low at $55 off. We last saw it on sale at $153, and now you can save another $28. The new Anker Prime 27,650mAh Power Bank arrives as a new iteration of the popular PowerCore 24K. Now sporting that same form-factor with a built-in screen for monitoring charging stats, the new Prime version packs a larger battery alongside a 250W output for its dual USB-C ports and USB-A slot. I just personally took a hands-on look at the experience in a recent Tested with gadgetnewsonline review.

All of iOttie’s new Auto Sense 2 car mounts are dropping down to $49.95 shipped at Amazon today as part of its Big Spring Sale.

That’s down from $65, and on top of saving you $15, it is also a new all-time low. It’s $5 below our previous mention from back in January.

Leading the pack this year is the best value around in the Alexa roster, with the recent Echo Pop at just $22.99. It would normally set you back $40 and now drops to the second-best price yet. It’s an extra $2 below our previous offer from back in February and the lowest of the year. Head below for more.

All you have to do is put down your name and email, and you’ll be able to get an extra $100 towards that new home theater upgrade –no cash down ahead of time or anything else needed.
Backbone is rounding out its iPhone gaming controller grips today by refreshing the Lightning side of its lineup. We first saw the USB-C version get some love last fall, and now those with an iPhone 14 or older can enjoy the same improvements.
Amazon is now offering the Belkin Apple Watch Fast Charger for $43.17 shipped after you’ve clipped the on-page coupon. Normally fetching $60, today’s offer lands at 28% off. It’s the third-best offer to date at within $5 of the all-time low and is the lowest we’ve seen since back in October, when it landed at the best discount we’ve seen. Designed to support the most recent Apple Watch Series 9 and its faster charging speeds, this nightstand companion sports a premium design that has a fold-up charging puck for refueling in Nightstand Mode or just laying your wearable down flat. It’ll also work with older Apple Watch models, but you won’t get faster charging speeds on any of them before Series 7. There’s no wall adapter in the box, but the charger itself uses a 1.2-meter USB-C cable that rounds out the package. Head below for more.

Now, it drops to $136.81 shipped as one of the first and only price cuts so far – but the real highlight is it’s the best price cut so far. That lets you take nearly 15% off the new and improved gaming mouse from its usual $160 going rate. We’ve seen a few $5 or less discounts last fall, but this is the first real chance to save.

Anker’s official Amazon storefront now offers its 15W 3-in-1 MagSafe Charging Cube for $129.99 shipped. This is down from the usual $150 going rate and marks only the second offer since back over Black Friday.

It debuts with a 3-in-1 design that on top of offering 15W MagSafe, also includes an Apple Watch fast charger and secondary 5W Qi pad for AirPods. This has been one of my favorite iPhone chargers since its debut last year, and my hands-on review explores why.
Update: We got a lot of replies to this saying that 8GB of memory wasn’t enough. Seems like Best Buy heard you, too, as it’s now dropping the 16GB/1TB configuration of Apple’s 15-inch M2 MacBook Air to $1,499 – down from $1,899. That’s $400 off, a new all-time low, and an extra $100 below our previous mention.
Best Buy is now offering Apple’s 15-inch M2 MacBook Air for $999 shipped. If you’re not swayed by the newer M3 models, today’s offer is worth a closer look at $300 off the usual $1,299 price tag.

Best Buy is offering a rare chance to save on Apple’s HomePod mini. We haven’t seen discounts on new condition models go live in months, and in fact, the last chance to save was back over Black Friday.

That’s $19 off the usual $99 going rate and an offer that comes within $1 of the previous holiday shopping discount last year.
Amazon is now offering Apple’s official 12.9-inch M2 iPad Pro Smart Folio for $74.99 shipped. This first-party Marine Blue accessory normally sells for $99 and hasn’t budged from that price since all the way in the spring of last year. Now it’s dropping to the Amazon all-time low at $24 off. This is $4 under our previous mention from last March, too.

Amazon now offers the GameSir X3 Android Controller Grip for $79.99 shipped after the on-page coupon has been clipped. Down from $100, this is a $20 discount and the second-best price we’ve seen. It’s the first discount in months and on top of that, is also within $10 of the all-time low roughly a year ago. As you might know from our hands-on review, the GameSir X3 takes a pretty excessive approach to turning your Android smartphone into a Switch-like portable system. It folds out over just about every modern handset from Samsung or Google, and features a USB-C port to plug in. The grip has an RGB fan attachment that can help keep your handset running much cooler during those sweaty Fortnite matches or if you’re pushing your hardware’s limits by running an emulator.
The next Pokémon TCG expansion set is being announced today. Just before Temporal Forces officially launches at the end of the month, the company is already turning its attention to the next set of cards – Masquerade.

Anker makes some of our favorite Apple accessories, and now we’re tracking a chance to save on one of the very best.

If you want to step up to the 8-core GPU model, that’ll run you $899.99, down from its original $1,499 going rate – also an all-time low at $599 off.
