It’s an “upgrade season,” if you will, and Amazon’s Big Spring Sale offers a little something for everyone to add faster and better gadgets to their homes and everyday carry. The sale is slated to run through the end of today, March 25th, and unless Amazon surprises us with a last-minute extension, that means you only have a few hours left to shop. We’ve been surfacing great deals on a variety of tech over the past week, whether you’re after a new pair of headphones or perhaps a robot vacuum to help with your spring cleaning duties. Many deals are still available, but some have started to whither. Below, we’ve compiled the best deals on devices and gadgets you can still find deep discounts on. There’s a chance some of these deals will stick around after the calendar turns, but we wouldn’t risk losing this early opportunity to save on something you’ve been eyeing. You can scroll at your leisure or use the jump links below to go straight to your category of interest. Headphone and earbud deals Bose’s standard QuietComfort Headphones are also on sale at Amazon and Best Buy for $249 ($100 off), matching their all-time low. Unlike their predecessor, the QC45, Bose’s newer over-ear headphones feature adjustable noise cancellation and custom listening modes that allow you to let in as much (or as little) outside noise as you’d like. That said, they lack Bose’s Immersive Audio feature, which is unique to the QuietComfort Ultra. Jabra’s semi-open Elite 10 are down to $199.99 ($50 off) at Amazon and Target, which is $10 shy of their all-time low price. The wireless buds support Dolby Spatial Audio with head tracking as well as wind detection tech, and Jabra claims they boast the company’s most noise cancellation yet. If Jabra’s Elite 8 Active are out of your budget, the fitness-focused Jabra Elite 4 Active are down to $89.99 ($40 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target. While not an all-time low, that’s one of the better prices we’ve seen so far this year on the buds. They aren’t as capable or as rugged as the Elite 8 Active, which boast an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance, but they still deliver good sound, active noise cancellation, and an IP57 rating. Sony’s lauded WH-1000XM4 are also on sale starting at $248 ($102 off) at Amazon and Best Buy, which is just $20 shy of their all-time low. Even if they’re not as good as Sony’s latest noise-canceling headphones, the XM5, the 2020 model sounds terrific and drowns out noise exceptionally well, with long battery life and plush, comfortable ear pads. Read our review. Samsung’s Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are on sale for around $189.99 at Best Buy and Target. While we’ve seen them for as low as $159 recently, this is still a $40 discount on the noise-canceling buds, which offer 24-bit audio support and great sound. They’re a particularly good option for Samsung Galaxy phone owners, who can enjoy extra perks like head tracking and spatial audio. Read our review. If you’re not a fan of silicon ear tips, the newer Echo Buds Amazon released last year have also returned to their all-time low of $34.99 ($15 off) at Amazon. The earbuds lack ANC, but they integrate with Amazon Alexa for hands-free commands and feature a semi-open design that lets you remain tuned into your surroundings. Speaker, soundbar, and other audio deals Amazon’s basic Fire TV Soundbar is matching its all-time low of $99.99 ($20 off) at Amazon. The basic Bluetooth soundbar doesn’t offer pristine detail, but it’s still a step up from the built-in speakers on most TVs. It’s easy to set up thanks to its compatibility with other Fire TV products, too, and comes with support for DTS Virtual:X, HDMI eARC, and Dolby Audio. Read our hands-on impressions. Amazon, Best Buy, and The Home Depot are selling the fifth-gen Echo Dot for $34.99 ($15 off). You can also buy the clock-equipped Echo Dot , for $49.99 ($10 off) at Amazon and Best Buy. While a far cry from their all-time low prices, these are the best prices we’ve seen since December. The Echo Dot offers a similar feature set to the Echo Pop, but delivers better sound and extra features like a temperature sensor. Read our review. Bose’s rugged SoundLink Flex is available from Amazon, Bose, and Walmart for $129 ($20 off), which is one of its better prices to date. It’s one of the best Bluetooth speakers available right now, one that delivers rich, detailed sound and ample bass for its size. JBL’s portable Clip 4 Bluetooth speaker is on sale for around $59.95 ($20 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Kohl’s. As the name implies, you can clip the Clip 4 to bikes, bags, and just about anything, making it great for bringing along on hikes. It also has an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance.

Gaming deals

  • You can buy the Razer Kishi V2 mobile controller for Android at Amazon for $79.99 ($20 off). The iPhone version that has a Lightning connector is also on sale for $89.95 (about $10 off) at Amazon, which is one of the lower prices we’ve seen as of late. The Kishi V2 can hold your smartphone in place as you use its physical buttons for a more comfortable mobile gaming experience.
  • The Razer Wolverine V2 Chroma is on sale at Amazon in black for $119.99. That isn’t the best deal we’ve seen — it’s dropped to as low as $87.99 in the past — but it’s a decent $30 discount on an excellent Xbox controller that offers RGB lighting, adjustable triggers, and six clicky, responsive buttons you can customize.
  • The Turtle Beach Recon is a solid wired Xbox controller that also works with Windows PCs. Amazon and Best Buy have it down to around $29.95 ($30 off), beating the previous all-time low by $10. It comes with in-line volume controls with an EQ feature that includes a mode that can amplify subtle sounds like footsteps and whispers. It also has remappable buttons and two rear-facing paddles.

Smartwatch and fitness tracker deals

E-reader and tablet deals

Phone deals

  • The Motorola Razr Plus is on sale for $699.99 at Amazon, which is $150 shy of the all-time low but still one of its better prices to date. If you miss the days of flip phones, the latest Razr is a solid buy with a modern 6.9-inch OLED display, all-day battery life, and a useful 3.6-inch cover display. Plus, you know, it’s fun. Read our review.

Smart home deals

  • The Google Nest Thermostat is down to $99.99 ($30 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and the Google Store, which is one of its better prices to date. The 2020 smart thermostat is a good no-frills option that supports Matter, even if it can’t adapt to your habits.
  • The Kasa Smart Wi-Fi Plug KP115 with Energy Monitoring is down to $10.99 ($12 off) at Amazon. The smart plug is compatible with both Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant and can also monitor your energy usage through the Kasa or Tapo apps.
  • The Blink Video Doorbell is on sale at Amazon and Best Buy for $41.99 ($18 off), matching its second-best price to date. The 1080p buzzer offers excellent value for the price with no ongoing fees, not to mention features like motion-activated recording and alerts, two-way audio, night vision, and impressively long battery life.
  • The Aqara Video Doorbell G4 is on sale for $97.99 ($22 off) at Amazon when you clip the on-page coupon. This is a good pick for Apple Home users since it’s the only battery-powered doorbell that supports Apple Home and HomeKit Secure Video, though we wish its video quality were better. Read our review.
  • Amazon’s Smart Air Quality Monitor is on sale for $54.99 ($15 off) at Amazon, which is $6 shy of its lowest price to date. It’s a handy gadget for the price, one that monitors your indoor air and can automatically turn on air purifiers, smart thermostats, and other Alexa-enabled devices via Hunches when it senses a drop in air quality. Read our review.

Robot vacuum deals

  • Normally $899.99, the Roborock Q Revo is currently on sale for $749.99 ($150 off) at Amazon and Roborock’s online storefront. While it lacks AI-powered obstacle avoidance, the robot vacuum is plenty capable in other ways and can self-empty, clean its oscillating mops, and even refill its own water tank.

Charger deals

  • If you don’t have a Qi2-certified phone, you can grab Anker’s 622 Magnetic Battery (MagGo) for around $34.99 ($30 off) from Amazon and Anker (with promo code WSCPBFFQ7N). The older, MagSafe-compatible battery pack delivers slower speeds than the aforementioned Qi2 charger, but it still packs a folding kickstand and portable design.
  • You can get Anker’s 240W, 10-foot USB-C to USB-C cable for $14.99 ($4 off) at Amazon or Anker (with promo code WS7DTVXLHC). The braided cable features an in-line cable tie and has enough throughput capacity to charge any device you own at its highest speeds.
  • Amazon has a 10,000mAh Anker 334 MagGo power bank down to $31.49 (about $9 off). You can get the same discount at Anker when you use promo code WS7DYF7UIH. It connects to the back of MagSafe-ready iPhones for wireless charging up to 7.5W, and you can recharge the battery itself at 20W speeds via USB-C (plus use the same port to charge other devices).

Other gadgets deals

  • Amazon’s Alexa Voice Remote Pro is down to an all-time low of $27.99 ($7 off) at Amazon and Best Buy. Along with two customizable buttons, the backlit remote offers a useful tracking feature that lets you keep tabs on it with Alexa’s help. Read our review.
  • Eufy’s SmartTrack Card is currently on sale for $19.99 ($10 off) at B&H Photo, which is just $3 shy of its best price to date. The thin location tracker offers a wallet-friendly design and handy clip, though, the biggest draw is that it’s compatible with Apple’s extensive Find My network.
  • Amazon’s prescription-ready Echo Frames are down to $229.99 ($40 off) at Amazon, which is their third-best price to date. The third-gen smart glasses are more stylish than their predecessors, with improved sound and battery life, yet they offer the same tight integration with Amazon Alexa as previous models. Read our review.
