If you own an Android device, Amazon’s offering another one of their signature app deals today. This time around, you can get any or all of 38 different apps worth over $110 combined absolutely free. My favorites in the bunch are Star Command and Telltale’s Game of Thrones (Episode 1), but be sure to check out the full list. [Amazon’s FREE Android App Sale]

If you’re an iOS user, be sure to check out our app deals post for more deals.

Today only on Amazon, you can save big on a huge assortment of PC parts and peripherals. There’s great stuff here if you’re building a PC from scratch, including SSDs, a case, a graphics card, and some RAM, but you’ll also find upgrades and peripherals for existing PCs, like monitors, gaming headsets, and software.

Just remember that this is a Gold Box deal, meaning these prices are only available today, but some of the most popular gear will likely sell out early. [Amazon]

If you’re in the market for a reliable portable hard drive, the ever-popular WD My Passport Ultra 2TB is back down to $80 right now, matching an all-time low. [Western Digital My Passport Ultra Black 2 TB, $80]

Update: The 1TB version is available for $50 as well.

We’ve seen our fair share of Bluetooth earbud deals lately, but even by our standards, $16 is cheap. Reviews of the TaoTronics TT-BH05s are solid at 4.2 stars, and the manufacturer claims a reasonable 6 hours of battery life.

If you don’t see the point, Bluetooth earbuds are perfect for working out, doing yard work, or pretty much anywhere else where you wouldn’t want to get tangled up in an extra wire. They’re also the only want to listen to locally-stored music on a smart watch, so if you’re planning on getting one soon, it’s not a bad idea to have these handy. [TaoTronics TT-BH05 Bluetooth 4.0 Wireless Stereo Headset Earphone, $16 with code 1599BH05]

It’s a USB battery pack made of wood! That’s so cool! And $10 is a solid price for a 3,000mAh pack anyway, so you won’t even need to feel like you’re paying a premium for the looks. [Baytek Wooden 3,000mAh USB Battery Pack, $10 with code AP87DCFY]

If you still haven’t upgraded to a current generation gaming console, this Xbox One deal might push you over the edge. $380 gets you the console, Halo Master Chief Collection, State of Decay, Killer Instinct, and a $100 Dell promo gift card, which you can use on anything Dell sells within the next 90 days (including more games). [Xbox One + 3 Games + $100 Promo Gift Card, $380]

Note: Check for the $100 gift card in your cart, in case they remove that part of the offer. You can see an example here.

If your wiper blades are starting to streak, Amazon’s offering a pair of Bosch Insight Blades for just $22 today. All you have to do is pick the two you want, add them to your cart, and you’ll see the discount at checkout. You can even mix and match sizes, so you can almost certainly find a combination that will work for your car. [Two Bosch Insight Wiper Blades, $22]

Note: The discount will only work on blades shipped and sold by Amazon directly. No third party sellers.

Today only, Amazon’s selling the 4.4 star rated Camco Deluxe Grilling Table for just $48, an all-time low, and roughly $30 below its usual selling price.

The table expands from its suitcase-sized carrying case into a four-tier surface that’s perfect for camping, tailgating, or just grilling in your backyard. You might not use this thing all the time, but buying it now sure beats paying $80 for it a few days before your next berbecue. [Camco Deluxe Grilling / Camp Table, $48]

The MacBook is too slow. The MacBook Air has a bad screen. The new 13” MacBook Pro though lacks any glaring weaknesses (and even has the new Force Touch Trackpad), and you can save $200 on the 256GB model today on eBay, with no sales tax for most buyers. I bought this exact model the day it was announced, and couldn’t be happier with it. If you have any questions about it, hit me up in the comments. [2015 Apple MacBook Pro 256GB, $1300]

Monoprice is offering another 10% off sitewide sale, and the belle of the ball is definitely the Monoprice Crystal Pro 28” 4K monitor for $400 with code PREM10. That’s one of the lowest prices we’ve ever seen for a 60Hz 4K display, and a great buy if your computer can support it. I did a lot of personal research into this monitor a few months back, and was one discount away from pulling the trigger before a deal on a Dell alternative caught my eye. [Monoprice CrystalPro 28” 4K Monitor, $400 with code PREM10]

The same PREM10 promo code will work sitewide, so if you need any cables, speakers, keyboards, action cameras, or other peripherals, today’s a good day to stock up. [Monoprice]

If you still haven’t upgraded your home network to 802.11ac, the highly-rated Netgear Nighthawk X4 comes with a 1TB Toshiba external hard drive for just $5 extra today on Amazon. You can even plug the hard drive straight into the router’s USB port, and use it as network attached storage. [Netgear Nighthawk X4 AC2350 Router + 1TB Toshiba Canvio Hard Drive, $205]

We’ve had a handful of solid shower speaker deals, but this one might take the cake. This is perfect if you like to sing in the shower, or just need more time to catch up on your favorite podcasts.

My favorite feature here is actually the dual-mounting options. If the suction cup won’t stick to your shower wall, the carabiner could clip onto your shower caddy in a pinch. [VicTsing Wireless Bluetooth 3.0 Waterproof Outdoor / Shower Speaker, $16 with code 9IGOMYEA]

Note: Only valid on the green model.

The Sony Alpha a5000 mirrorless camera was a great buy at its original $600 MSRP. At $330 with an extra 55-210mm lens thrown in, Newegg might as well be giving them away. The only catch is that it’s refurbished, but if that doesn’t scare you off, this is one of the best camera deals we’ve ever seen. The same deal was available several weeks ago for $320, but it sold out quickly. If you missed out, it’s well worth the extra $10. [Refurb Sony Alpha a5000 Two-Lens Bundle, $320]

If you’ve caught the smart watch bug, you’ve got several good options on sale today. The Moto 360 is of course the most popular Android Wear watch to date, but the Pebble Steel represents a refinement of the original Pebble, which was arguably the first truly successful wearable on the market.

$25 is a great price for any dual-driver Bluetooth speaker, but especially so for one with a built-in tablet stand. If you like to use your tablet as a portable TV, but sometimes have trouble hearing it, this is all you need. [Inateck Dual-Driver Portable Wireless Bluetooth Speaker, $25 with code D5SFLCJO]

There’s nothing particularly noteworthy about this external battery pack, except the price. $13 is one of the best prices we’ve ever seen for a ~10,000mAh pack. [Lumsing 10400mAh External Battery Pack, $13 with code EDMMYN8V]

While Gunnar glasses are marketed towards gamers, they can be effective at reducing eyestrain for anyone that spends their day staring at a screen. The problem is that they’re typically pretty expensive, and rarely go on sale. Today only though, Amazon’s got a variety of options marked down to a flat $40, which is basically as cheap as we ever see them. These prices will shoot back up at midnight PT though, so grab them while you can. [Gunnar Sale]

If you like juicy, perfectly cooked meat that’s stupid-simple to prepare, you should invest in some sous-vide gear like this Sous Vide Supreme Demi. If you don’t like those things, then go ahead and skip this deal. [Sous Vide Supreme Demi, Home Cooking Appliance, $179 with code DEMI179]

Whether you’re actually concerned about purifying your water, or (like me) you mostly care about just having really cold water available at any time, this 8-cup Brita pitcher is a great buy at $18, an all-time low. [Brita Marina Water Filter Pitcher, 8 Cup, $18]

If you need to catch up on the first six Star Wars feature films before Episode VII comes out, the Complete Saga Blu-ray is down to $85 today on Amazon. That’s not an all-time low price, but it’s on the low end of its usual price range. Not bad considering it includes eight additional documentaries, in addition to the films themselves. [Star Wars: The Complete Saga, $85]

Yesterday we had a treasure trove of great deals on Logitech gear, and today, it’s Anker’s turn. Anker makes some of the most popular external batteries we’ve ever posted, and today on Amazon, they’re having a nice little sale on some of their other highly-rated products.

The star of the show here is the Anker 60W/6-port USB desktop charger. These are perfect for your desk, night stand, or travel bag, and if you buy one today, you can get either five free microUSB cables, or two free Lightning cables to go with it.

Other deals include tablet stands, smartphone car mounts, and more, so be sure to check out the full list below, and don’t forget the promo code.

It’s weird to think about a set of tongs being beloved—you’d assume they were basically commodities—but Cooler Kitchen’s EZ-Grip tongs actually have quite the devoted fan base, if their 4.9 star review average is any indication.

While metal tongs could scratch your cookware and plastic ones might not be dishwasher safe or BPA free, the EZ-Grip tons are wrapped in silicone, meaning you can use or clean them just about anywhere. If you need a pair, promo code 1NEWTONG will save you 15% today. [Cooler Kitchen EZ-Grip Tongs, $8 with code 1NEWTONG]

The Xbox 360 controller (still only $28) has long set the standard for PC gamepads, but the Xbox One controller improves upon it in almost every way, and is cheaper than ever today. Interestingly, the Windows edition that includes a USB cable is $5 cheaper than the standard configuration, but it can still be used wirelessly with any Xbox One. [Xbox One Controller + Cable for Windows, $45]
