Amazon’s Big Spring Sale 2026: all of the latest deals

Microsoft’s Xbox console strategy needs work, but its Bluetooth-ready controller that shipped alongside the Xbox Series X and Series S is fantastic. We think it’s one of the best Xbox controllers out there, thanks to its comfortable design, multiplatform compatibility (it works great on the Steam Deck and PC, too), and its textured grips and triggers, which prevent your fingers from slipping during intense games.

Thankfully, the Xbox Wireless Controller is discounted in a couple of different colors in the lead-up to Amazon’s Big Spring Sale. The black version is currently available for the lowest price we’ve seen this year at Amazon, Walmart, and Target. Originally $64.99, it’s now just $43.49. The white version is $0.49 cents cheaper at Amazon and Walmart. There’s also a discount on a bundle that includes the black-colored model and a USB-C cable to connect it to a device of your choosing, eliminating the need for AA batteries. It costs $2 more, and you can buy it for $44.99 (down from $64.99) at Amazon.

Hoto makes electric screwdrivers for different budgets. If you don’t want to spend much, you can get its most basic model, which we’ve recommended many times. That one comes with 25 bits, and has three levels of torque for $29.99 (usually $59.99). But if you want more power and versatility, its PixelDrive model might be the better option. It offers six levels of torque, plus two speed options: 80RPM for precision-oriented tasks, and a 200RPM setting for faster action. Hoto has knocked $20 off its price, and you can pick it up for $59.99 at Amazon.

The PixelDrive also offers more bits than Hoto’s basic model (30 versus 25) and a bigger battery (2,000mAh versus 1,500). This model features a 360-degree LED light near the bit to illuminate where you need to screw or unscrew, and its display shows the battery level as well as your torque selection. While the carrying case included with the affordable Hoto electric model is already miles ahead of what’s included with most competing products, the stacking cylindrical bit case set included with the PixelDrive goes a step further. Its camera lens-inspired design should blend in a little more easily wherever you like to tinker.

If you’re looking for an easy and affordable way to add smarts to your home, you can buy two Kasa Smart Wi-Fi Plug Slim smart plugs on sale for $21.99 ($8 off) at Amazon and B&H Photo. That’s the bundle’s best price in months and a good opportunity to upgrade things you already own instead of replacing them with pricier smart devices.

The plugs let you add smart controls to devices like lamps, fans, chargers, coffee makers, and heaters. All you need is plug one into an outlet and connect it to your Wi-Fi network, and you can automate whatever’s attached using the Kasa app on your phone. You can also control stuff with your voice thanks to Matter support, which lets the plugs work with major smart home platforms like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. That means you can turn lights on or off when you’re out of town or, for example, schedule a fan so that it turns on a few minutes before you return home.

Amazon’s Prime Day sale may arrive earlier than usual this year, but there’s a deal event happening much sooner: Amazon’s annual Big Spring Sale, which is happening March 25th through the 31st. While it won’t be as big as Prime Day or Black Friday, it offers a chance to save money at a time when tariffs have increased the prices of many gadgets over the past year.

Dozens of good deals — ones we haven’t seen in months — are already starting to pop up. Some gadgets, like Amazon’s Fire TV Stick 4K Max, have dropped to their best price since Black Friday, while a few others, like the Echo Dot Max and the Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni, have fallen to new low prices.

Earlier this week, Apple unveiled the AirPods Max 2. The forthcoming over-ear headphones build on their predecessor with an H2 chip that powers a range of new features; however, they still don’t offer the sort of cross-OS compatibility you’ll get with a modern pair of Beats headphones — including the Beats Studio Pro, which are on sale at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy for an all-time low of around $169.95 ($180 off) in the run-up to Amazon’s annual Big Spring Sale.

Although they’re undoubtedly getting a little long in the tooth — the Beats design hasn’t fundamentally changed since 2017 — the Beats Studio Pro remain a solid pair of platform-agnostic headphones, particularly at this price. They offer one-touch pairing with both iOS and Android devices, along with support for Apple’s Find My and Google’s Find Hub networks, allowing you to locate them a little easier should you ever misplace them. Apple users get hands-free Siri access and support for head-tracking spatial audio, while Android folks get an AirPods-like audio switching trick that lets you effortlessly jump between different Android devices (phones, Chromebooks, etc.).

Insta360’s Antigravity A1 is one of the most interesting drones on the market thanks to its included Vision Goggles, which provide a 360-degree first-person view through the drone’s cameras (a screen on the outside of its lenses shows what the pilot is seeing). Its cameras can shoot 8K video at 30 frames per second, or in 5.7K at 60 frames per second. And now, the company has launched its biggest discounts yet on all bundles, knocking 20 percent off the list price at Amazon, Best Buy, and directly from Antigravity through April 16th.

The ongoing promo ends just as the company is set to release a new set of features via a free software update. Before I dig into said features, however, here’s what each bundle includes and how much they currently cost. The most affordable bundle, which Antigravity calls the “Standard” set, costs $1,279 (originally $1,599). It includes the A1 drone, Vision Goggles, a remote control, a battery, a carrying case, and four spare propellers.

Amazon’s Big Spring Sale kicks off on March 25th, though some great tech sales are already available. Sonos is one of several companies that has switched on sales for its products, including some that haven’t previously been discounted this year. While the company is best known for its home theater gear, these discounts largely focus on products that are just as enjoyable to use outside as they are indoors (it is almost spring, after all).

Kicking things off, the Sonos Ace wireless headphones are back down to $299 (originally $399) at Amazon, Best Buy, and through Sonos, as long as you’re ready to buy them in black. While this price is $20 shy of their best-ever, it’s worth noting that this is the first discount of the year. The Ace headphones are an impressive first attempt at wireless headphones for the company, packed with active noise cancellation, comfort, and great sound that rivals the best in the category — currently at a price that’s lower than most of its competitors. Their TV Audio Swap feature is unique, letting you swap audio from a Sonos soundbar (including the Arc, Beam, or Ray) to the Ace for private listening. Read our review.

If you like the idea of spring cleaning but not the part where you actually have to clean, both the Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni and newer X9 Pro Omni have dropped to their lowest prices to date ahead of Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, which officially kicks off on March 25th. The X8 Pro Omni is available for $599 ($501 off) from Amazon, Best Buy, and Ecovacs, while the X9 Pro Omni is on sale for $679 ($621 off) at the same retailers (Amazon, Best Buy, Ecovacs).

Both robot vacuums are packed with smart features designed to reduce the time you spend cleaning. Using lidar and a 3D camera for mapping, they can deftly navigate around furniture and baseboards, and even identify and avoid potential obstacles. The roller mop on both models also cleans itself while it works, and each robovac comes with a multifunction dock with a built-in water tank, allowing them to refill themselves and move dirty water into a separate waste tank. You can also use either the companion app or voice commands to control them thanks to their support for Matter, which lets you connect them to platforms like Alexa and Google Home.

Since Amazon rolled out its redesigned Fire TV OS, Amazon’s latest streaming sticks are even better than ever. And right now, both the Fire TV Stick 4K Max and Fire TV Stick 4K Plus are back at their best prices yet during Amazon’s early Big Spring Sale event. You can buy the Fire TV Stick 4K Max for $34.99 ($25 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target, while the Fire TV Stick 4K Plus is down to $24.99 ($25 off) at the same retailers (Amazon, Best Buy, and Target).

The updated Fire TV OS makes it easier to find something to watch no matter which model you choose. It pulls recommendations from your subscriptions and adds tabs across the top of your screen for categories like TV shows, news, sports, and live content, so you can quickly jump to what you want to watch. There’s also a redesigned apps row that lets you pin up to 20 favorites instead of just six, making it quicker to jump between services. You can also navigate with your voice thanks to support for Alexa Plus, which lets you issue specific commands like asking it to open ESPN on Sling TV, search for particular scenes or content, check sports scores, or control compatible smart home devices. You even use the remote to quickly view feeds from devices like Ring cameras.

I upgraded from the Pixel A-series buds released in 2021 to the Pixel Buds Pro 2, and two things were immediately apparent: the A-series buds have no business sounding so good for their sub-$100 price, and the Pixel Buds Pro 2 were everything I wanted in a successor. They’re even smaller and have a silicone ear fin to ensure a snug fit, but their upgraded features — better sound quality, active noise cancellation, and transparency mode — hang with the best of them. If you’re planning to upgrade soon, this model just returned to its lowest-ever price of $169.99 (was $229.99) at Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart (in limited colors), and the Google Store.

These wireless earbuds can work with any device over Bluetooth, but they work best when paired to a Pixel phone running more recent versions of Android. You can view current battery levels of each bud as well as the case through a homescreen widget, or use the Pixel Buds app. You can customize touch gestures on each bud, assigning functions like activating the Gemini-powered voice assistant or adjusting noise control. Turning off all touch controls is an option, as is turning on head gestures, such as nodding to answer a phone call. Alternatively, you can customize most of those features through Google’s browser-based companion app for PCs.

Between March Madness and the Oscars, now might be a good time to improve your TV setup. Google’s TV Streamer 4K is currently on sale for $79.99 ($20 off) at Amazon, Target, and Walmart, which is its second-best price to date and only $5 more than its all-time low.

As a streaming device, it’s terrific. Getting started is easy; it took us only about 10 minutes to set up, and the Google Home app even asks which streaming services you use and automatically installs them for you. The device also supports Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, too, so movies and shows look sharper and sound more immersive.
