Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days sale is officially over. But don’t panic just yet. If you missed out, there’s still time to find some great savings. Particularly with tech, because some of the best tech deals are still clinging on to those low prices, just waiting to be snagged by last-minute bargain-hunters.
Mashable’s reporters and editors test tech year-round. For Prime Big Deal Days, we paired those hands-on findings with price-history checks to help you decide what’s worth buying, which upgrades are worth paying for, and where a cheaper model will do the job. We’ve been looking for discounts on devices we’d actually recommend: earbuds that stay comfortable during a commute, e-readers with responsive page turns, and creator cameras that help you stand out from the crowd. And below is the best of what’s left on offer.
Our top picks include $79 AirPods, a $103.99 Kindle, and $80 off Bose’s second-generation QuietComfort Headphones. With the sale now over, there’s no time to lose — now’s the moment to get those last-chance deals.
How do we pick deals? A low price doesn’t automatically make a good deal. We prioritize products recommended in Mashable’s reviews and buying guides, then use price-tracking tools such as camelcamelcamel to check whether the discount is unusually good. We also compare other retailers’ listings rather than assuming Amazon has the lowest price.
When we’ve tested a product, we explain what stood out in actual use. We also flag Prime membership requirements, third-party sellers, and other conditions that could change the value of an offer. With all this in mind, let’s break down the top tech deals still available after the official close of Prime Day.
The best AirPods deals
The best AirPods deal is actually available at Walmart, not Amazon, as part of Walmart’s competing deals. This for the AirPods 4, a budget pick for iPhone users who prefer earbuds without ANC.
Just to reiterate, this deal is for the version that doesn’t have active noise cancellation. In our AirPods 4 review, we tested the ANC model, but the buds have the same design. We found they stayed secure through flights and a treadmill run, although our reviewer experienced some discomfort after roughly eight hours of wear. The AirPods 4 reached $69 last Black Friday, so $79 isn’t their all-time low. But it is the lowest price so far in 2026 — and a reasonable buy.
A Kindle for just over $100
The 2024 Kindle is on sale for $103.99, a 31% discount, with an option to bundle three months of Kindle Unlimited for free. It’s the pick for readers who want a small, lightweight e-reader rather than every feature in the Kindle lineup.
In Mashable’s review, Lead Shopping Reporter Samantha Mangino found that the six-inch Kindle fit easily into a small crossbody bag, turned pages quickly, and displayed crisp, high-contrast text. Its 16GB of storage gives you room for thousands of books without stepping up to a more expensive model.
The trade-offs matter: this Kindle isn’t waterproof and doesn’t have the Paperwhite’s adjustable warm light. Amazon also rates its battery life at up to six weeks, compared with up to 12 weeks for the 2024 Paperwhite models. Choose the basic Kindle for portability and price; consider a Paperwhite if you read in the bath or want more control over nighttime lighting. You can also check out the brand-new Kindles Amazon just announced, though they aren’t on sale (womp, womp).

Save on Apple’s newest MacBooks
We’ve been waiting for good deals on Apple MacBooks, and Amazon has finally delivered over October Prime Day, with both the MacBook Air and Pro marked down.
If you’re a professional creative, developer, or AI enthusiast who needs a compact new laptop for work, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better option than the 14-inch, M5 Max-powered MacBook Pro. The “base” configuration with 36GB of RAM and 2TB of storage got a $500 price increase back in June, which bumped it from $3,599 to $4,099. But right now, Amazon has it on sale for just $3,499 — a $600 savings.
If you don’t need the powerful MacBook Pro’s features or the price tag, you can go with the M5 MacBook Air while it’s on sale for $1,099, or $200 off the normal price. Not only is it highly portable, but it also uses the M5 chip, and it stays in a moderate lane without going wild with features not everyone needs. It’s a great buy for students or professionals.
A tasty deal on a top-end espresso machine
Ninja is now well established as one of the most desirable brands in kitchen appliances. While you probably associate them with air fryers, this espresso machine is just as slick — a 3-in-1 coffee maker that serves up espresso, cold brew, and drip coffee, plus lots of variations in between (lattes, macchiatos, cappuccinos, and more).
It comes with a built-in frother for turning milk into creamy microfoam, as well as a conical grinder and smart technology that guides you through the coffee-making process.
At $499.95, it’s just 95 cents from its lowest-ever price.
Google Pixel 11 Pro on sale
Apple customers were out of luck with October Prime Day smartphone deals, but Android users have enjoyed plenty of options. If you’re looking for the best deal on an Android smartphone, then it’s an easy choice — the new Google Pixel 11 Pro is still marked down for Prime members, now at $849.
This sale marked the first time the new Google flagship phone had ever dropped below $1,000. In our recent Pixel 11 Pro review, we noted that this phone has an incredible set of cameras, which is no surprise. For creators — or anyone who loves documenting family memories — this is the best Android phone for photography right now.
DJI Osmo Pocket 3 Creator Combo
The DJI Osmo Pocket 3 Creator Combo is the more practical upgrade for creators who want steadier footage and better audio without building a full camera rig. The bundle includes a DJI Mic 2 transmitter, battery handle, and mini tripod — not just the camera.
The Pocket 3 combines a one-inch CMOS sensor with a three-axis mechanical gimbal, which stabilizes footage as you move. Its rotating two-inch touchscreen makes switching shooting orientation straightforward, while ActiveTrack 6.0 can keep you centered during a solo, talk-to-camera recording.
For creators who edit beyond basic cuts, support for 10-bit color and D-Log M provides more flexibility for color grading. That’s the reason to consider this older camera: the useful features are still here, even if a newer model exists. Read our review of the DJI Osmo Pocket 4.
A high-spec smartwatch at almost half price
Garmin is the king of high-quality smartwatches with rugged outdoor features and fitness tracking. If you move fast, you can pick up a premium model with a discount of 47%.
It offers advanced health and training monitoring and in-depth metrics, along with 16 days of battery, a built-in flashlight, and trainer-like guidance.
We’ve seen in go as low as $499.99 before, but even with an extra $20 on top, the current sale price of $529.99 is much the athletes who use this smartwatch: seriously competitive.
Best deal under $25: Apple AirTags
Apple released a new generation of AirTag trackers this year, the AirTag 2. The popular Apple tracker has fallen to an all-time low price, and we don’t expect it to get any cheaper today. You can also grab the 4-pack on sale for $89.
Gaming gear with over $800 off
Gamers know that sale events — even the aftermath — are the time to pick up new hardware. And for those on the hunt for a new monitor, this LG UltraGear OLED monitor has a massive 47% off its list price right now, savings of $815. At 45 inches, it boasts WQHD resolution and a curved display for a more immersive gaming experience. With a refresh rate of 240Hz and a lightning response time of just 0.03ms, it’s built for high-speed gaming and winning performance.
Best Amazon subscription deal
This exclusive deal is for Prime members only, and it’s a good one. For a limited time, Prime members can sign up for four months of Audible for just $0.99. You’ll also get a $20 Audible credit to spend as you like.
Our advice? Take advantage of this deal and set a calendar reminder three months and 29 days in the future.
Cheap wireless earbuds for under $25
If you’re prone to losing earbuds and just need something simple for everyday use, the popular Anker Soundcore P30i Earbuds are sitting at $24.99.
The best iPad deals
Prime Big Deal Days cut $100 from the newest iPad Air, which is powered by the powerful M4 chip. It’s our favorite tablet overall and won a Mashable Choice award earlier this year. (Read our full review if you’re on the fence.)
If you want to upgrade to the M5 chip and a breathtaking OLED touchscreen, then you can also save $100 on the iPad Pro. Its display is incredibly bright, even in direct sunlight, and it has enough processing power to run video-editing software and handle 4K video files.
Bose QuietComfort headphones on sale
The Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (2nd Gen) are $80 off, and their appeal is more specific than “premium sound”: Mashable’s testing highlights their comfort, adjustable active noise cancellation, and all-day battery life even with ANC enabled.
The second generation increases rated battery life from 24 to 30 hours and adds USB-C wired playback, which can charge the headphones while you listen. There’s also passive playback through an auxiliary cable. Those are useful upgrades if you wear headphones through a workday or want a wired option when the battery runs out.
Prefer earbuds? The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds are under $130 after a 28% discount. According to our reviewer, “you’ll be hard pressed to find earbuds with better sound quality and battery life than these.”
A 65-inch TV for under $600
It wouldn’t be a major sale event without at least checking out the prices of massive smart TVs, would it? This is our top pick of what’s still discounted, a huge Hisense TV with all the bells and whistles in glorious 4K. The E7 Cinema Series runs on Fire TV and more than lives up to its name. It’s built for home cinema setups, boasting a stack of features — including Dolby Vision IQ, AI-enhanced visuals, motion smoothing, and Filmmaker Mode — to immerse you in your movies and shows. Throw in gaming features, and it really is the full package. And it’s now just $32 off its lowest-ever price.
A super-affordable Android smartwatch
If you’re looking for a tracker and smartwatch hybrid that’s super affordable, then we have to point you to the Nothing CMF Watch 3 Pro. We called this an almost-perfect smartwatch in our review, and we named it a Mashable Choice product.
Grab this budget Android tracker, which boasts weeks of battery life, for just $59.
