IntheNews.tv What's Trending in the news today
As Mashable’s tech editor, I test the latest products from brands like Apple, Samsung, and DJI. I also get to try cool under-the-radar gadgets that only true tech nerds know about. Officially, the Amazon Big Spring Sale ended last night, but some of the best tech deals are sticking around. So, I hand-picked a fresh batch of deals that are actually worth shopping. I’ve also included some deals from competing retailers — if they have a better price. Since the event is over, it’s worth jumping on any leftover sale prices soon. There’s no telling when they’ll shot back to full price.
Bose QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2)
(save $50)
Anker Nano 45W GaN Smart Charger
(save $10)
DJI Mini 5 Pro Fly More Combo
(save $500)
Apple iPad, 11-inch (A16 chip)

DJI Mic Mini (2TX, 1RX, charging case)

Apple AirPods Pro 3

Xreal 1S AR/XR Glasses
(save $80)
Between inflation, a global memory shortage, and overall economic anxiety (trust me — I’m feeling it, too!), you don’t want to miss a chance to save some money.
I’ve personally tested many of these products, and if I haven’t, someone else on my team probably has. I’m only recommending products with genuine discounts, because we all know big retailers like to play fast and loose with the definition of the word “deal.”
Grab Sony headphones on sale
Yesterday Amazon gave Sony headphones the special treatment and we save the previous-gen Sony WH-1000XM5 noise-cancelling headphones drop to $243, a new record-low price. Sadly, this sale price ended with the sale. However, you can still snag the Sony ULT Wear headphones, another Mashable Choice winner, while they’re still on sale for under $150.
Select iPads, AirTags, and Apple Watches are all at record prices
Amazon always delivers solid deals on Apple products during its big sales, and even though the sale is over, you can score record-low prices on Apple Watches and newly released MacBook Pro laptops. Amazon has quietly discounted the new AirPods Max 2 by $20, and they don’t even come out until April 1. Miraculously, this sale price is still live on select colorways.
Early shoppers cleaned up on the M4 MacBook Air and M3 iPad Air, which are now out of stock — womp, womp. We’re tracking the other worthwhile Amazon Apple deals that are still around, including M4 iPads and M4 MacBooks.
While the 2026 Big Spring Sale’s list of good laptop deals was flooded with MacBooks, Windows laptop steals include the Asus ROG Flow Z13 with a free code for Crimson Desert and the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3X and both of those are still around.

A smart Anker charger with a smile
Anker makes my favorite fast chargers, and I literally use the company’s GaN USB-C chargers every day of my life. However, the next Anker charger I want to try is this little phone charger, which comes with a smart display and fun colors (you can match it to your iPhone, if you’re into that sort of thing).

DJI drones on sale starting at $149
Yes, technically, DJI drones are banned in the United States, but they’re still widely available from third-party sellers at Amazon. (It’s complicated.) If you’re a creator, real estate professional, or wedding photographer who wants to take beautiful aerial videos in 4K — or just an aspiring pilot looking to have some fun outdoors — these drones are by far the most popular choice.
And if you’re looking for a premium drone that isn’t sold by a third-party retailer, the new Antigravity A1 Drone, one of the last drones approved for sale prior to the ban, is also on sale at Amazon.

Amazon Echo device deals
As per usual, some of the best deals during the spring Amazon sale were on Amazon’s own products, particularly in the Echo lineup. Sadly, most of those devices are back up to full price today. We’ll likely have to wait until Prime Day this summer to catch those discounts again. However, some lucky Amazon accounts can still snag great deals on the Fire TV Stick 4K Select.

Bose headphones on sale
We waited patiently for this one and it’s still live: Our favorite Bose headphones are discounted even after the Amazon Spring sale. The Bose QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2), the brand’s current flagship, are supremely comfortable. In fact, our reviewer called them the most comfortable headphones in the world, full stop. And if you need something a little more affordable, their younger sibling is also still on sale.
Xreal Smart AR Glasses
As a tech editor, I’ve been very skeptical of the smart glasses trend. However, I like Xreal’s augmented reality glasses precisely because they don’t have cameras, so you don’t have to worry about creeps and bad behavior. I use the Xreal One Pro AR glasses when working on planes, and the new Xreal 1S glasses can project a 500-inch virtual screen for work or entertainment wherever you go. Both pairs sank to their lowest-ever prices during the Big Spring Sale, and today’s they’re both $1 more than their sale price yesterday. We’re still calling that a great sale price.
TV deals
Amazon forgot to turn the TV deals off when the sale ended. Nearly all of my top picks are still sitting at Big Spring Sale prices. Pro tip: Hisense and TCL Fire TVs are often a better value than Amazon’s own Fire TVs. This Big Spring Sale, you can find the 75-inch version of the Hisense U6 Mini-LED Fire TV for $170 less than the 55-inch version of the Amazon Omni Mini-LED Series Fire TV.
You can also still snag new record-low pricing on Samsung QLED TVs released last year, now that the 2026 Samsung QLEDs have been released.
Unfortunately, there weren’t any new price drops on my favorite TV: The Frame art TV from Samsung. Most sizes of the 2025 Frame TV are still on sale, but it’s nothing we haven’t seen before.

DJI creator deals
For the Big Spring Sale, Amazon went hard with DJI deals, and they’re almost all still live. You can still find massive discounts on the brand’s popular line of creator gadgets. I personally use the DJI Mic Mini and DJI Osmo Mobile 7P Gimbal when shooting videos for Mashable (check our Instagram story to see my latest).
The cult-favorite DJI Osmo Pocket 3 Vlogging camera, which experienced a rare markdown earlier in this sale, is back up to full price. I’m keeping my eyes out for any after-sale price drops, however. Pro creators and YouTubers are obsessed with this camera (in my review, I wrote, “it should replace whatever vlogging camera you’re using now”).

Our favorite affordable stick vacuums
Spring cleaning was a big theme during the Big Spring Sale, from deals on cleaning supply restocks to deals on robot vacuums and cordless vacuums, and it’s not too late to get nice deals.
Our favorite stick vacuum deals are actually from Shark, not Dyson. The $149 Shark Pet IX141 has incredibly strong suction for the price, confirmed by a reporter with a dog. It’s still down at this price after the sale.
Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 Bone Conduction Headphones
The No. 1 best-selling bone conduction headphones are still on sale after the Amazon Spring Sale, with a discount of 22%. You can pick up these athlete-approved running headphones for under $150.
JBL Bluetooth speakers — save 27%
I’m a big fan of JBL’s Bluetooth speakers. In my testing, they’ve beaten out more expensive Bluetooth speakers from brands like Bose and Sonos. They’re also extremely portable, super easy to use, and totally waterproof, i.e., perfect for spring and summer hangouts. Two of my favorite models are still sitting at their Big Spring Sale price today.
Fitness trackers on sale
If you’re coming out of a winter funk and looking for some workout motivation, strap on a fitness tracker. You can pick up Fitbit step counters for under $70, or save up to $70 on the latest generation of Apple Watches, which are the same Amazon Big Spring Sale prices we saw yesterday.

The Brick, an anti-doomscrolling device that works
Have you heard of the viral gadget, The Brick? This humble little gadget helps to lower your screen time by locking you out of your most time-sucking apps. The only way to unlock them is to physically tap your phone to the Brick, and it works. In her review, Mashable’s Samantha Mangino wrote that the Brick cut her screen time in half and “finally taught me how to be bored again.” The brand is still hosting a spring sale.
An affordable foldable phone
If you’re an Android user on the fence about getting a foldable phone, this deal could help you decide and it’s still live after the sale. The Motorola Razr Ultra was the most underrated phone of 2025, and I was impressed by its battery life, display, and design during testing. If you miss flip phones that slip easily into your pocket, then you’ll appreciate this one.
This trendy little flip phone is $500 off at Amazon even after the Spring Sale. It’s far more affordable than Samsung’s Z Flip 7, too.
I’ve been testing phones for 20 years. Check the top unlocked phone deals in Amazon Spring Sale.
