If you\u2019ve struggled to justify buying Apple\u2019s AirPods Max at their usual $420-plus price (at Apple, they\u2019re still $549), head over to Woot and check out this deal on refurbished models that cost just $369.99<\/a>. You can choose between space gray, sky blue, and green, each of which Woot says are \u201cApple Certified Reconditioned\u201d and have \u201cno visible scratches or blemishes and appear practically brand new!\u201d Though, as is usually the case, the warranty for these refurbished headphones isn\u2019t as good as buying new ones. You\u2019ll get 90 days instead of a full year.<\/p>\n

While still pricier in refurbished condition than some of our other top picks for noise-canceling headphones<\/a> new-in-box, there are some good reasons why you may want to opt for the AirPods Max. Our reviewer Chris Welch says that their build quality \u201cis on another level\u201d compared to the likes of Sony and Bose. Instead of building its headphones with plastic like everyone else, Apple uses aluminum and stainless steel. Also, its digital crown controls are easier to navigate than touch controls or your typical ear cup button layout. Read our review.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Following last week\u2019s announcement of the Apple Watch Series 8 and the rugged Apple Watch Ultra<\/a>, Amazon has a batch of Series 7 smartwatches<\/a> selling at a pretty steep discount. The most notable deal is on the 45mm-sized Apple Watch Series 7 (GPS + LTE) in black<\/a>, red<\/a>, or blue<\/a>, which costs $400 instead of $529. <\/p>\n

For something slightly cheaper, the red 41mm GPS + LTE<\/a> model of the Series 7 is $379. Red a little too loud for you? This starlight colorway<\/a> of the same size and with the same capabilities costs $399. Here\u2019s our review of the Series 7 from October 2021.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The Apple Watch Series 7 comes in a range of colors with either GPS or GPS and LTE cellular connectivity.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Even with the newer smartwatches releasing later this week, it\u2019s likely that for some, the Series 7 may tick enough boxes to warrant saving some money. We did a comparison post<\/a> that puts all of the latest smartwatches against the Series 7. It\u2019s virtually identical to the Series 8 in terms of design, and it has more than a few things in common internally. Save for an updated processor, crash detection, and temperature sensors used to track ovulation and the menstrual cycle<\/a>, the Series 7 goes toe-to-toe with the Series 8.<\/p>\n

That TV pictured above is TCL\u2019s 65-inch 6-series 4K TV with Mini LED backlighting. The reason why I\u2019m showing it to you is because it\u2019s on a special discount at Best Buy, where you can grab it for $799.99<\/a> \u2014 $200 off its usual price. Aside from its Mini LED backlighting, which delivers a brighter, more realistic-looking picture than standard LED, it features other niceties, like HDMI 2.1 ports to display gaming at 4K at up to 120Hz, as well as Google TV software built in.

TCL 6-Series R635 (65-inch)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/h3>\n

\n

The R635 is part of TCL\u2019s 6-Series line, which features 4K HDR, Mini LED backlighting, and four HDMI ports. Unlike the more recent model, the R635 runs on Roku\u2019s TV platform and lacks some of the more recent upgrades, including support for 4K gaming at 120Hz.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
