Best audio deal

Why we like it

They may no longer be the latest and greatest headphones in the Beats lineup, but the Beats Solo3 are certainly still a solid pair of on-ear headphones — especially when they cost less than $100. They feature Apple’s W1 chip for enhanced iOS performance, bass-heavy audio tuning, comfortable ear cups, and a 40-hour battery life (or unlimited battery life, if you add an aux cable for passive listening). The black, rose gold, and red color options are all back at their Prime Day 2 price at 50% off.

Best home deal

Why we like it

A solid hub for managing smart home devices, setting alarms, organizing your calendar, listening to podcasts and playlists, and more, the Echo Show 5 (2nd gen) is a worthy nightstand companion. It’s not as beefed up as its Echo Show 8 sibling, but it does have an improved camera over the first generation, plus extra Alexa functions like motion-activated routines and home monitoring. With the coupon code SHOWVID30 at checkout, you can slash the $84.99 price tag down to just $29.99, which is on par with its all-time low Prime Day 2 price.

Best monitor deal

Why we like it

More than just a monitor, the Samsung 43-inch M70B Series smart monitor serves as an extra screen for your work setup, a smart TV for streaming, or a web browser that doesn’t require a separate PC. It can even act as an IoT control center by connecting it to your smart home devices via SmartThings. With a generous 43-inch 4K UHD display, you’ll definitely use it for more than just an extended screen — and with this 37% off discount, you can grab one for just $314.82.
