$99.99 Save $30

The Roku Ultra, our favorite Roku streaming device, is the cheapest it's been all year (and just $3 away from its record-low price). The premium streaming device has a quad-core processor that offers smooth HD, 4K, and HDR streaming on a zippy interface. It's more powerful than the Roku Express 4K Plus and comes with Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision support, a microSD slot for storing and streaming external media, an Ethernet port, and the Roku Voice Remote Pro with customizable shortcut keys. It's regularly $100, but you can grab it for only $69.99 as of Sept. 18. That's 30% in savings.

Boost your home security without breaking the bank with the TP-Link Tapo Wire-Free MagCam. It offers 2K video and a year-long battery life for only $69.99 on sale. That's 42% in savings and matches its lowest price on record — just be sure to select the on-page coupon to get the full discount. We haven't had a chance to test out this security camera ourselves, but our sister site PCMag (also owned by Ziff Davis) did and awarded it an outstanding rating and coveted Editor's Choice award. "It's an excellent value for a battery-powered camera that offers color night vision, built-in spotlights, local and cloud storage options, free intelligent alerts, voice control, and many other features," the review states.

"The Instinct is ideal for serious navigators, ultra-athletes, and solo trekkers who spend a lot of time outside and in rugged conditions," Mashable's review states of the original Garmin Instinct smartwatch. The second generation of the already great watch is even more powerful. Not only does it offer detailed health monitoring and smart notifications like any good smartwatch, but it also packs a three-axis compass and barometric altimeter for highly intricate tracking and navigation, plenty of built-in sports apps, and an unlimited battery life in smartwatch mode (thanks to solar charging). As of Sept. 18, it's also back down to its record-low price of $299.99 at Amazon. That's $100 in savings and a pretty impressive deal on a smartwatch that's just as tough as you.

$149.95 Save $49.96

Want a solid pair of noise-cancelling earbuds that won't break the bank? The Beats Studio Buds are back on sale for $99.99 at Amazon. That's 34% off their usual cost in white, black, or red. Mashable tech reporter Alex Perry called them "Apple's new go-to entry-level earbuds" when they first came out in 2021, claiming they "put entry-level AirPods to shame." They're equipped with decent active noise cancellation, transparency mode, spatial audio, and a 24-hour battery life with the charging case. They're no longer the latest or greatest Beats buds, but they still hold up in 2024.

$549.99 Save $250

Don't have the budget to hire a professional cleaner? Start smaller by grabbing this Roomba i3+ EVO on sale for just $299.99. That's $250 cheaper than usual and on par with its lowest price to date. The i3+ EVO is our top pick for a budget Roomba (with a software upgrade), thanks to its self-emptying abilities, smart mapping, and more powerful suction power over the cheaper 600 series. You can basically set it and forget it for 60 days, as it will dump all the dirt it picks up into its base.
