75% off or more

We were all set to stagger you with the news that these Ziuty earbuds had been marked down 75%; then we refreshed our screen and … they’re now nearly 85% off! Aside from their bonkers price, we love the real-time power readout on the front of the case, making it so much easier than pulling out your phone and swiping to find out how much charge is left. The top number shows how much juice is in the case, while the two smaller indicators show readings for each bud. Pretty smart!

But that’s not their only innovative feature: These buds have everything you’d expect in a much pricier pair. On-ear controls let you answer calls, skip songs and activate Siri. They also have multiple sound modes to pick from. “These little wireless earbuds are great! The sound quality is fantastic if you want to listen to music or watch TV shows and movies when you don’t want to disturb anyone. The sound is crystal clear, and you don’t even have to turn the volume up very high,” one happy customer said.

Headphones and earbuds

Tell Mom to get ready to listen to her faves in a whole new way! These second-generation AirPods Pros are slightly better at noise cancellation than the first iteration. Their case also has an increased battery life (up to 30 hours), with the buds themselves boasting up to six hours of listening time. But the best part just might be the U1 chip feature, which basically works like an Apple AirTag and helps her find her AirPods if they’re lost. Reviewers also say this model provides better sound quality and noise cancellation when making phone calls. “The sound quality is excellent, with clear and balanced audio across all frequency ranges. The noise-cancellation feature is highly effective, blocking out background noise and allowing you to focus on your music or phone calls…. Overall, the Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Generation) earbuds are a great investment for anyone looking for high-quality, convenient and versatile earbuds,” shared one satisfied audiophile.

Tablets and tech

This Sgin laptop has so, so much to offer — a full HD IPS screen with rich, vibrant color and long battery life (up to eight hours on a charge!), so Mom can work or play pretty much all day, wherever she is . . . and, best of all, low power consumption and noiseless heat dissipation, which means her computer will never sound like it’s taking off into space and won’t heat up like the surface of the sun if she runs multiple apps at once. The kicker? It’s $974 off!

“Quiet, sleek, and efficient,” shared one satisfied reviewer. “The integration of Android to Windows was seamless. All apps and programs transferred beautifully and without hassle or corruption. Easy to set up. Was able to get started straight away Great slim-line look and nice keyboard feel. Snappy performance, good graphics and very good battery life. All in all, a very good value in a home laptop.”

I’d donate every other knife I own … in a heartbeat if my husband wouldn’t complain. These are a delight.”

Auto

It’s important to keep your eyes on the road (of course), but that can be hard to do if you’re following your phone’s GPS. Luckily, this car phone mount is the perfect solution! It will easily hold your cell in view for quick reference without your having to look down, and it can secure phones of all sizes, thanks to adjustable feet and strong, wide clips. Mounting is also a snap — it uses a powerful three-layer viscous gel and a one-step locking mechanism to provide strong suction on any smooth surface without leaving any residue.

Vacuums

Leave fussy cables in the dust (heh) with this cordless vac from the folks at Inse. It features an upgraded motor to provide strong suction on max mode, which means you can capture pet hair, dirt and other messes on hardwood floors, low-pile carpet, stairs, beds, curtains . … Well, you get the idea; this thing can go practically anywhere. On top of that, it runs quiet and cool to give you a serene cleaning environment, and it runs 30 to 45 minutes on standard mode after a full charge. “I purchased this vacuum a few months ago, because the deal was way too good to pass up for a cordless vacuum,” reported one Amazon reviewer. “The device charges really quickly, works great for hardwood floors. It’s lightweight, and the various brush heads are super helpful and convenient for my small apartment.”
