Spring is officially here Here, and retailers celebrate by holding seasonal sales. While these types of sales events often have themes associated with warmer weather, these deals aren’t limited to fitness gadgets and outdoor gear. You’ll find discounts on everything from video games and camera bags to headphones. Check them out!
Special offer for Gear readers: Get a 1 year subscription b Wired For $5 ($25 off). This includes unlimited access Wiredcom and our print magazine (if desired). Subscriptions help fund the work we do every day.
The sale is full of camera gear.
In addition to various discounts on its own gear, Moment is currently offering 15 percent off Wander Gear. (This sale is also happening live on Wander.)
Featured in our best camera bags guide, this sling is a runner-up for on-the-go camera enthusiasts. The bag is comfortable, modular and durable. The 10-liter volume is enough for a camera and some accessories or even a drone. Don’t know what a liter means? We have an explanation.
We love this bag, it has its own story. The investment is worthwhile for those looking for a spacious, durable bag that doesn’t compromise on style or function. Other sizes of the photo bundle are on sale. Importantly, they all include a camera cube and additional straps.
This is our favorite photography bag for many people. It’s so cute and colorful! There are plenty of pockets and organizational options, and you don’t have to sacrifice space for compactness. When you want to leave the house, you can easily switch the camera to a regular bag.
The Google Pixel 7 line is on sale.
The Google Pixel 7 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is one of our favorite Android phones. The company is currently offering $150 across multiple models and capacities, which is the lowest price we’ve tracked to date. Get help deciding between the phones with our Google Pixel buying guide. There’s more Google hardware on sale.
This is one of the best values around. The cameras are amazing, the battery lasts more than a day, and you get the little features you’d find in a phone twice the price, like wireless charging, water resistance, and premium build quality.
For those looking for an upgrade, the Pixel 7 Pro adds a larger display with a 120-Hz screen refresh rate, a 5X optical zoom camera, and slightly longer battery life.
This deal matches what we saw on Cyber Monday in 2022. The Pixel 6A (8/10, WIRED Recommends) has been on sale for several months, but if you don’t want all the bells and whistles, this is a great deal. We’re expecting to see a successor to the Pixel 7A in the next three months.
We’ve seen these headphones (8/10, WIRED Recommends) drop to $64 before, but $79 is still a good deal. These headphones are just as good (if not better) than Apple’s basic AirPods.
Another Cyber Monday 2022 price match, this deal is good for upgraded headphones. Pixel Buds Pro (9/10, WIRED Recommends) are extremely comfortable and have sound quality to match, plus the case supports wireless charging.
And what do you know—another Cyber Monday price is the same as last year! Google’s first smart wearable lacks a few features you’ll find in its competitors, and its battery life leaves much to be desired. But it’s cute, it’s cheap, and it does a great job of tracking basic fitness metrics. It recently received a fall detection! Learn more about it here.
Samsung’s new phones are also discounted.
Now’s a great time to save on three new Samsung Galaxy S23 smartphones (9/10, WIRED Recommends) and other gadgets. Samsung’s S23 lineup is some of the best flagships on the market. Learn more about the differences between models here. We also have a guide to the S23 cases and accessories you may need. Samsung is also running other deals during the Samsung Discover Samsung event.
This is the best Galaxy S23 for most people. It’s the smallest and cheapest option in the lineup, but you still get a really bright AMOLED screen, powerful performance with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, and all-day battery life.
It’s a slightly awkward mid-range option, but if you want a bigger screen compared to the base model S23 and don’t want to spend the extra on the S23 Ultra, you should choose this version. For $150 more than its smaller sibling, the S23+ gets you more storage and faster charging, not to mention a bigger screen and slightly better battery life.
It’s more expensive, but this is the best upgrade option of the lineup. The camera system includes a 10X optical zoom sensor that allows you to take incredibly clear photos of subjects from far away. There’s also a built-in stylus on the nearly 6.8-inch screen. The battery lasts for a day and a half with average use.
