Top Deals

The massive Anker Astro E7 Ultra-High Capacity 25,600mAh 3-Port External Battery Pack has matched its Prime Day pricing, $30 off its previous low. That’s enough juice to keep the average smartphone running for a week or more. [Anker E7, $50 with code ANK4999S]

Kinja Deals readers buy a ridiculous amount of Anker Power Banks, and this deal still elicited a “holy shit” from our team. Get it while you can.

This discounted flash drive doesn’t look like anything special at first blush, but hit one button, and it transforms into tiny wireless media server, allowing you to pull up files on any of your devices, including phones and tablets.

That means next time you travel, you can stream movies to your tablet or store photos from your phone without filling up your device’s precious onboard storage. Today’s $30 price tag is a match for the 32GB model’s all-time low. [SanDisk Connect 32GB USB 2.0 Wireless Flash Drive, $30]

Mpow’s Swift Bluetooth Headphones are one of the most popular items we’ve ever posted, but the biggest complaint we hear about them is that they don’t fit everyone’s ears particularly well. Their newer Cheetah model aims to address that with a wraparound design, and you can try a pair yourself for just $25 today, an all-time low. [Mpow Cheetah Bluetooth 4.1 Sport Headphones, $25 with code 6KLVT6Q6]

Kmashi’s stupid-cheap line of external batteries are some of the most popular items we’ve ever posted, but this is the first deal we’ve seen on their higher-end MP828 model.

So what (besides the ridiculously cheap price) sets this battery pack apart? Most notably, it comes with a 5A AC power brick that can charge the entire battery in under four hours, which is more than twice as fast as it would charge with a MicroUSB cable. To give you a sense of context, Kmashi claims that plugging this battery in for just 25 minutes will give it enough juice to charge a dead iPhone 5s to 100%.

In a world drowning in nearly-identical external battery packs, that qualifies as an innovation in my book. Of course, you can still charge it with a microUSB cable if that’s all you have handy as well. [Kmashi MP828 20000mAh Power Bank, $22 with code SFA4VPGB]

Feel like shopping anywhere other than Amazon after yesterday’s Prime Day overload? You’re in luck, because eBay is taking $15 off every $100 you spend on a selection of gift cards to various stores and restaurants. Assuming they’re places you would have shopped anyway, that’s basically free money.

Some of your best bets include the PlayStation Store, Xbox Live, Jiffy Lube, and Legal Sea Food, but be sure to head over to eBay to see the entire collection. [$15 off Every $100 in Gift Cards]

Note: If you’re having trouble with the deal on your phone, try using a desktop. We’re seeing reports that it’s a little buggy on mobile

If you still haven’t upgraded your home network to 802.11ac, Newegg is discounting the refurbished (and highly-rated) NETGEAR Nighthawk AC1900 router down to $115 today. That’s about $45-$50 less than buying it new, and $25 less than Amazon’s refurbished listing. [Refurb. NETGEAR Nighthawk AC1900 Dual Band Wireless Gigabit Router, $115]

While I personally prefer monochrome laser printers to inkjets, if you need to print in color, this is one of the best printer deals you’re likely to see. Today only, Amazon’s offering the Brother MFC-J870DW wireless 4-in-1 printer for an all-time low $80. Just note that it’s a Gold Box deal, meaning this price is only available today, or until sold out. [Brother MFC-J870DW Wireless Color Inkjet Printer with Scanner, Copier and Fax, $80]

If you missed out on yesterday’s Prime Day deal on Bose SoundTrue headphones, Best Buy has matched that $80 price tag today, which was an all-time low. These are The Wirecutter’s favorite on-ear headphones, and we doubt they’ll be in stock for long. [Bose SoundTrue Headphones, $80]

A huge collection of the best iOS apps and games are deeply discounted right now. Here are a few highlights, but check out our app deals post for the rest.

If you want to try out Chrome OS with as little cash outlay as possible, this refurbished Acer for $110 is just about the best price we’ve ever seen. The specs are nothing special, but they’re no worse than your typical ~$200 Chromebook. [Refurb Acer 11.6” Chromebook, $110]

It won’t sync with your phone over Bluetooth like a “real” smart scale, but this Weight Gurus digital bathroom scale uses your smartphone’s camera to record your weight in its free app, and at $15, it doesn’t cost any more than any other barebones scale. [Weight Gurus Digital Bathroom Scale, $15 with code WGURUS04]

It’s not a cash discount, but today’s console deals from Dell are the next best thing. If you buy the standard PS4 or Xbox One console bundles for full price, you’ll get a $100 Dell promo gift card after it ships. That $100 credit is only good for 90 days, but you can use it on anything Dell sells, including video games.

Note: The gift card will show up in your cart automatically after you add the console

Today on Amazon, pick up eight Tarantino classics, plus two discs filled with special features, all for an all-time low $58. [Tarantino XX: 8-Film Collection, $58]

The free-form LEGO Minecraft Crafting box is back down to $40 today, matching its all time low. That gets you 521 assorted pieces, including Steve, a skeleton, a bow, and a pickaxe. It’s not nearly as cool as augmented reality Minecraft, but you can actually buy it right now. [LEGO Minecraft Crafting Box, $40]

If you’ve never heard of Anker’s Zolo ecosystem of gadget accessories, they’re pretty unique in that they work together with the power of magnets. The magnetic phone cases stick to the magnetic car mount, the magnetic battery packs stick to the back of the phone cases, and so on and so forth.

In celebration of Prime day (though in this case, you don’t need Prime to partake), Anker’s knocking 30-50% off select Zolo accessories today. Just be sure to note the promo codes.
