Our top pick
Released in June 2023, the Amazon Echo Buds aren't the most exciting pair of earbuds on the market. But they don't need to be at this insanely low price point. As of July 10, you can scoop up a pair for a record-low $24.99 with Prime. That's 50% in savings. They look similar to AirPods and feature about 20 hours of battery life with the charging case. Plus, they put Alexa right in your ear. They have their flaws (poor fit depending on your ear shape, no noise cancellation), but it's hard to care when they only cost $25.
If you're a Bose fan and like the color purple (or lilac, to be specific), the small-but-mighty SoundLink Flex just dropped to an all-time low price of $99 at Amazon as of July 10. That's 34% in savings and 99 cents less than it currently costs at Target during its competing Circle Week sale. The Flex is built to go with you wherever life takes you — and survive. It features a rugged texture, a completely waterproof design, and is resistant to UV light and corrosion. It also lasts up to half a day on a single charge and can automatically detect its position to deliver the ultimate listening experience.
A great way to document your summer adventures, the Instax Mini 11 is "the best instant camera for beginners," according to our friends at PCMag (which is owned by Mashable's publisher, Ziff Davis). The Mini 11 features automatic exposure, one-touch selfie mode, and simple instant operation without much of a learning curve. For Prime members, it's marked down to just $59 ahead of Prime Day, which is the lowest price we've seen in over a year.
Amazon's Smart Thermostat originally debuted in 2021 as a more affordable competitor to the Google Nest. And ahead of Prime Day, it just got even cheaper. Regularly $80, it's on sale for just $51.99 if you're a Prime member. While that's not its lowest price ever, it's the lowest price we've seen since Black Friday season in 2022. If you're looking to optimize your HVAC energy use and are a fan of Alexa, this is the way to go. Ask Alexa to adjust the temperatures or automatically tune your thermostat to suit your preferences.
Curious about the air frying lifestyle? Scoop up your own Dash Tasti-Crisp air fryer for only $34.99 (reg. $49.99) with Prime and start cooking. This analog model is great for beginners who typically cook for one or two people. Just adjust the temperature and set the time and let it do its thing. Ahead of Prime Day, it's already at its lowest price on record.
