Updated May 22: Memorial Day weekend is about to start, and as you head out from work to get ready for three days of relaxation, shop these tech deals on all the major brands. Amazon, Walmart, and others are bringing us some of the year's best prices, and here I'll present the 150+ best bargains we've hunted down on top brands including Apple, Dell, Samsung, Google, and more. I'll add new deals constantly all weekend, in between manning the grill.

Memorial Day Laptop Deals

Holiday sales are among the best times to save big on laptops, and Best Buy is cutting the line with a serious $300 discount on the luxurious, lightweight Microsoft Surface model, which fuses the convenience of a touchscreen with powerhouse AI performance. In our review, we raved about its high-quality metal build, excellent benchmarking results, and all-day battery life. Throw in tons of ports and cool haptic feedback from the touchpad, and you have a laptop worth picking up. There are a few different Surface models on sale at Best Buy right now, but we like this loadout because it comes in at a near-budget price, and the dune finish on the shell is eye-catching and unique.

Memorial Day TV Deals

The best TV deal we've spotted this week is a $200 price drop on the TCL QM7K, a bright, colorful 4K display that we gave an "Excellent" rating to in our review. This is a solid all-around set for TV, movies, sports, and gaming, with a 144Hz panel with VRR and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro making it work with current-gen consoles and PCs at maximum settings. The nearly bezel-free design eliminates distractions, and plenty of HDMI ports let you set up tons of inputs. It also supports hands-free Google Assistant controls using a built-in far-field microphone array. This set originally retailed for $1,499, so it's an incredible bargain at $800.

Memorial Day Streaming Device Deals

To go with your new TV, pick up Amazon's best streaming stick so you can take your logins wherever you go. This easy-to-use device connects to any Wi-Fi network and plugs in to a HDMI port, loading the easy-to-use Fire TV platform with access to both Amazon's library and dozens of other streaming services. In our review of the Fire TV Stick 4K Plus, we gave it an Editors' Choice award, with home entertainment expert Will Greenwald declaring the device "one of our favorite media streamers" thanks to an upgraded processor, new Wi-Fi 6 support, and more memory for smoother browsing and more stable playback, even in full 4K. It's on sale for $20 off.

Memorial Day Headphones and Earbuds Deals

We're seeing plenty of headphone deals as Memorial Day nears, but right now the best offer is Best Buy's $130 price drop on the exceptional Bose QuetComfort with active noise cancellation. We gave these an "Excellent" rating in our review, praising their ultra-comfortable fit and rich, crisp audio. If you're listening in a noisy space, you'll appreciate the powerful ANC that they deliver, filtering out obnoxious and unwanted sound thanks to a responsive onboard microphone. They also come with a zip-up, hard-shell case for storage. Battery life is great, with as much as 24 hours of listening on a single charge, and 2.5 hours to charge to full from empty.

If you haven't checked out Nothing, you're missing out. The British company combines unique industrial design with overperforming components to create high-quality headphones, earbuds, and phones that look cool and work great. We gave the Nothing Ear (a) in-ear headphones an "Excellent" rating in our review, saying that their support for a wide range of Bluetooth codecs, compatibility with Google Fast Pair and Microsoft Swift Pair, and multipoint connectivity make them a flexible alternative. Battery life is good, and the audio profile is well-rounded, with in-app EQ giving you more control. They're a bargain at retail, so a 46% price drop makes them hard to beat.

Memorial Day Cell Phone Deals

If it's time for a new phone, don't get shackled into a carrier contract before you check out Memorial Day deals. Amazon has the excellent Samsung Galaxy S25+ for $300 off right now, but supplies are dwindling. We raved about this excellent Android mobile in our review, noting its gorgeously bright and colorful display, lightning-fast performance, and spectacular cameras. With a Samsung Armor Aluminum frame and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2-covered screen and back panel, it's attractive and durable. Connectivity is also excellent, with 5G and Wi-Fi 7 support. We couldn't find much to criticize about this phone, and for this price, it's unbeatable.

Memorial Day Wearable Tech Deals

Smart glasses are coming into their own as must-have wearables, incorporating cameras to give you an augmented view of the world with open-ear speakers in the frame for listening to music and making phone calls, and a built-in AI assistant to handle tasks. We have a detailed review of the latest Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, where we were very impressed by the improvements over the last generation, including boosted battery life and an improved 3K camera. It takes some getting used to framing photographs using your glasses, but once you get the hang of it it's intuitive and fun. They look good and fit comfortably as well.

Memorial Day Monitor Deals

The HP Omen Transcend is our Editors' Choice winner for dual-purpose monitors, handling both warp-speed gaming and color-accurate content creation with equal aplomb thanks to a top-notch QD-OLED panel with 4K resolution and a 240Hz refresh rate. In our review, we raved about its flexibility, pointing out the Omen Gear Switch that lets you swap peripherals between PCs without any cable management, along with Picture-in-Picture and Split Screen modes. Gaming-centric features like an on-screen frame rate counter are also nice bonuses. It all comes down to the image quality, though, and that's where this unit shines, with great benchmarking results across the board. It's $400 off right now at Best Buy.

Memorial Day Tablet Deals

Tablets are also seeing price drops, but none as dramatic as a full $400 off the spectacular 2025 iPad Air. We gave this creativity slate an Editors' Choice in our review, noting that while it looked virtually identical to the previous version on the outside, the improved processor delivers upgrades across the board, including better battery life, processing speed, and even camera performance. This is the top-end loadout, featuring a full terabyte of internal storage and a 5G cellular radio for network access wherever you go. While a newer model just came out earlier this year, the M3 is still a top choice for content creation and gaming.

Memorial Day Smart Thermostat Deals

As the spring turns to summer, keeping your house cool gets more important. Stop wasting money on needless utility bills with a smart thermostat that intelligently adapts to climate patterns, supports robust schedules, and interfaces with other smart home systems for robust and easy control. We highly recommend the Ecobee Smart Thermostat Enhanced, giving it an "Excellent" rating in our review for its simple installation, accurate and responsive controls, and ability to double as a smart security hub when paired with compatible sensors. Dual-band Wi-Fi gives it reliable connectivity, and the companion app is a breeze to use. Amazon has a $30 discount.

Memorial Day Robot Vacuum Deals

If your home attracts dust and debris like mine does (living in the country with three dogs will do that), you need a robot vacuum that really pushes the envelope. In our testing, the Ecovacs X9 Pro Omni delivered some of the highest power we've ever measured in our suction stress test, and did equally well with its redesigned roller mop, which cleans itself as it mops and automatically dispenses detergent. We gave it an "Excellent" rating in our review and also appreciated its excellent obstacle avoidance.

Memorial Day Desktop Deals

We gave an Editors' Choice award to the HP OmniStudio X all-in-one in our review, with special praise going to its height-adjustable stand, which lets you customize your viewing angle for each member of the household that uses it. From a component standpoint, this is a capable little performer, with a peppy Core Ultra 7 processor making it a great choice for everyday productivity tasks, along with Web surfing and media streaming on the impressive 4K display. When compared with Apple's iMac, the OmniStudio X delivers a very attractive Windows-based alternative, and snagging a $230 Memorial Day discount makes it even better.

Memorial Day Home Security Deals

Amazon's house brands are already seeing big price drops for Memorial Day, and if you're looking to harden your home security, the Ring Outdoor Cam Plus is a cost-effective way to get 24-hour coverage with lots of neat features. We have a positive review, noting that it performed well even in low light, was a breeze to install, and played nicely with Alexa smart home systems. It's effortless to connect multiple cameras, have them send customized alerts, and play a loud siren. This model is battery-powered and can go several months between charges. Note that to store and retrieve footage in the cloud, you'll need a Ring subscription, which starts at $4.99 a month.

Memorial Day Networking Deals

If you value keeping your ping low for online gaming, you need a router that can keep up with the latest advancements in Wi-Fi bandwidth. We gave the Asus ROG Rapture GT-BE98 Pro an Editors' Choice award in our review, impressed by how it dominated our benchmarking tests thanks to a 2.7GHz quad-core CPU, 256MB of flash memory, and 2GB of RAM coupled with eight adjustable external antennas and 16 internal antennas for massive range and stable connections. Wired connectivity is also top of the line, with a 10GbE WAN/LAN port, a 2.5GbE WAN/LAN port, three 2.5GbE LAN ports, a 10GbE gaming LAN port, and one 1GbE LAN port. It's spendy, but this Memorial Day discount helps.

Memorial Day Speaker Deals

Summer's coming, and if you don't have a Bluetooth speaker to keep your beach party bumping, this weekend sale is going to be the best time to pick one up. We're recommending this $50 price drop on the JBL Flip 7, a well-rated portable with good battery life and loud sound. We have an extensive review of this model, giving it props for its assertive audio profile from a device the size of a 16-ounce soda can. It's super easy to store, IP68 durability rated for total protection against dust and the ability to submerge in about 5 feet of water for up to 30 minutes without damage. The accompanying JBL Portable app lets you use a seven-band EQ to further shape the sound to your liking.

Memorial Day Soundbar Deals

This Memorial Day sale has everything you need to set up a full home theater system, and the last ingredient is the exceptional Sonos Beam soundbar, which we raved about in our review. This low-profile speaker delivers the rich spatial audio we expect from Sonos, now with Dolby Atmos support, and five-channel audio processing. The Beam produces some of the most impressive stereo we've seen from a single-speaker device, with crisp mids and highs, and it's a breeze to set up. If you really want room-rattling lows, you'll need a separate subwoofer, but for the price this is the best all-in-one audio solution for most home theaters, especially at a $130 price cut.

Memorial Day SSD and HDD Deals

It's not the speediest external drive on the market, but if you need a good amount of storage at a fair price, the Samsung T7 delivers it in a small but potent package. In our 2020 review of this model, we noted that it performed well right out of the box, either through USB-C or with the included USB-A adapter. Samsung's preloaded software lets you enable password protection with nearly unbreakable AES 256-bit hardware encryption for your files. Even though it's tiny, it's drop-resistant at up to 6.5 feet, and has a three-year warranty.

Memorial Day Tracker Deals

With all the hot tech you're going to take home this week, you might have a hard time keeping track of it all. That's where our last deal comes in: a steep 24% discount on a two-pack of Life360 Tile Bluetooth trackers. These tiny little rectangles hold Bluetooth radios that use Life360's proprietary network, with over 70 million users, to precisely locate themselves. We've got an extensive review where we put the Tile through its paces, concluding that it was simple to set up and very accurate, and had an advantage over Apple's AirTag in that it works with both iOS and Android devices. It also has an added security feature that lets you send an SOS signal to selected devices by triple-tapping its face button.
