Amazon loves to manufacture an event. March is historically a dry spell for deals; however, with Amazon’s third annual Big Spring Sale, which starts today and runs through March 31st, the retail behemoth is hoping to lure in would-be shoppers with the promise of steep(ish) savings and discounts on more seasonal, spring-centric items to hold folks over until Prime Day surfaces at the onset of summer.
The bulk of the deals we’re seeing right now aren’t quite on par with Black Friday or Prime Day, and, as with most shopping events, not everything on sale is worth picking up. That said, Amazon’s latest sale is one of the first big opportunities we’ve seen this year to save — and bypass some tariff-induced pain — especially since some of our favorite gadgets are currently matching their lowest prices to date, including headphones, robot vacuums, and a slew of charging accessories.
To help you sift through it all, we’re focusing squarely on the gadgets that are actually worth picking up, many of which we’ve tested and recommend even at full price. You’re not limited to Amazon, either. Retailers like Best Buy and Walmart are offering the same deals in a lot of cases, meaning you don’t necessarily need to succumb to shopping at the so-called “Everything Store” just to save a buck (or 50).
$75
The Echo Dot Max features a flat design and a redesigned sound system, which delivers nearly three times the bass as its predecessor. It also offers improved conversation detection and better noise filtering, thanks to Amazon’s new AZ3 chip. Read our review.
$399
With double the battery life of its predecessor and better-sounding stereo audio, the Sonos Move 2’s improvements don’t stop there. It supports line-in audio, can stream Bluetooth audio to other Sonos speakers, and more. Read our review.
- The Amazon Echo Studio is on sale for $189.99 ($30 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target, which matches its all-time low price. Like the smaller Echo Dot Max, the Echo Studio supports Alexa Plus and is compatible with Matter, Thread, and Zigbee so it can double as a smart home hub. Unlike the Dot Max, though, it supports spatial audio and Dolby Atmos, delivering fuller, room-filling sound. In our tests, it even sounded better than Apple’s second-gen HomePod. Read our review.
- If you’re looking for a relatively affordable Bluetooth speaker, you can pick up Soundcore’s tiny Select 4 Go at Amazon for $22.99 ($3 shy of its best-ever price), from Best Buy for $24.99, and directly from Soundcore (with code WS24A31X1USC) for $23.99. The portable, IP67-rated waterproof and dustproof speaker can float in a pool and lasts up to 20 hours on a single charge. You can also charge it via USB-C or pair it with a second Go speaker for richer, stereo sound.
$60
The UE Miniroll is a funky, disc-shaped Bluetooth speaker that can get surprisingly loud — especially if you make use of its support for Auracast, which lets you pair it with other Miniroll speakers. It provides up to 12 hours of continuous playback, and thanks to its IP67 rating, it’s ready for your next pool session.
Headphone and earbud deals
$299
The Sonos Ace are the company’s first set of wireless headphones. They feature a premium, comfortable build and active noise cancellation, along with compatibility with Sonos Arc and other Sonos soundbars. Read our review.
$160
The latest Beats Studio Pro feature improved noise cancellation, sound quality, and comfort. They also support lossless audio over USB-C, making them the first Apple headphones to do so. Plus, like other Beats headphones, they offer native support for a range of iOS and Android features. Read our review.
- The Beats Solo 4 are down to $119.99 ($80 off) at Amazon in several colors. This is the best price we’ve seen so far this year, though it’s nowhere near the best-ever price of $79 we saw during the holidays. These wireless headphones lack active noise cancellation, but they do support lossless playback over USB-C (or 3.5mm) for detailed, clear sound, along with spatial audio. They’re also platform-agnostic, and can last a whopping 50 hours on a single charge. Read our review.
$200
The recently released AirPods Pro 3 have a new design that improves their fit, superior noise cancellation, better bass, and fairly accurate heart rate sensors. Read our review.
$169
Significantly smaller and lighter than their predecessors, the Pixel Buds Pro 2 also offer stronger noise cancellation, a crystal clear transparency mode, and lengthy battery life. Read our review.
- You can currently purchase Sony’s WH-1000XM5 for $298 ($100 off) at Amazon and Best Buy. Although we saw them drop to as low as $205 in recent months, that’s still one of the better deals we’ve seen on the over-ear headphones, which still offer terrific sound and great noise cancellation despite being a last-gen model. The newer XM6 improve on both fronts and feature a foldable design, but the XM5 remain a great investment when you can find them on sale. Read our review.
- Sony’s WF-C510 are on sale at Amazon, Best Buy, and B&H Photo for around $48 ($20 off), which is the best price we’ve seen. The IPX4-rated buds offer up 11 hours of playback, multipoint Bluetooth connectivity, and a helpful transparency mode, which is a nice perk given that most cheap pairs of closed-style earbuds skip out on the latter feature in an attempt to keep costs down.
$140
The updated Echo Show 8 features an 8.7-inch display with 720p resolution, wider viewing angles, and higher contrast. It includes a 13-megapixel camera, new stereo speakers, and supports Alexa Plus, while doubling as a smart home hub with support for Zigbee, Matter, and Thread. Read our review.
$170
The Echo Show 11 features an 11-inch screen and 1080p resolution. It includes Alexa Plus and can be used as a smart home hub with support Thread, Matter, and Zigbee smart home protocols. Read our review.
- The Echo Spot is on sale for $49.99 ($30 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target, which is $5 more than its best price to date. The tiny, Alexa-enabled gadget features a customizable 2.83-inch screen that can display a slew of info at a glance, such as the weather and various reminders, and it serves as a handy alarm clock for your bedside, should you need one. It also sounds surprisingly good for its size and lets you control compatible smart home devices with your voice, including your lights. Read our review.
- The Govee Table Lamp 2 Pro X Sound by JBL is currently on sale at Amazon for $134.99 ($45 off), matching its best price to date. The color-changing smart lamp offers preset scenes to help you set the mood, but it also lets you create lighting effects. It’s a Bluetooth speaker as well, one that delivers decent sound and syncs with your lights. Plus, thanks to Matter support, it’ll work with all major smart home platforms, including Amazon Alexa. Read our review.
- Govee’s Matter-compatible Table Lamp 2 is on sale for $55.99 ($24 off) at Amazon, nearly matching its best price to date. The colorful, desk-friendly RGB lamp offers adjustable lighting, the ability to sync with your music, and more than 60 preset scenes. You can also customize and create your own effects within Govee’s mobile app, or control the lights using touch, Amazon Alexa, or Google Assistant.
- You can buy two Kasa Smart Wi-Fi Plug Slim smart plugs on sale for $21.99 ($8 off) at Amazon, which is $2 shy of the bundle’s all-time low price. The basic plug lets you add smart features to traditional gadgets like fans and lamps, and it offers energy monitoring, so you can keep tabs on how much power you’re consuming — which is helpful if you’re trying to cut down on your electricity bill. It’s also compatible with Matter, meaning you can connect it to multiple smart home platforms for voice control.
$599
The Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni features an extendable mop that can clean itself and 18,000Pa of suction power. It also comes with a multifunction dock that can refill the robovac using an integrated water tank and move dirty water into a separate waste tank to prevent it from dragging stains across your home.
- The newer Ecovacs Deebot X9 Pro Omni is also available from Amazon, Best Buy, and Ecovacs for $679 ($621 off), which is its best price to date. It’s very similar to the aforementioned X8 Pro Omni, but it’s able to capitalize on Ecovacs’ Boosted Large-Airflow Suction Technology, which can suck up dust and debris more easily for a more thorough clean.
- The Dreame L10s Pro Ultra is on sale for around $349.98 ($50 off) at Amazon and directly from Dreame with coupon code L10PUXM. The robovac / mop hybrid offers a respectable 7,000Pa of suction along with an extendable mop that can reach closer to edges. Its self-cleaning dock washes the mop pads with hot water and dries them with hot air. Plus, it can empty its own dustbin, refill its own water tank, and even automatically dispense cleaning solution.
- The Aura Carver Mat is on sale for $143 ($36 off) at Amazon, which is its best price of the year. The 10.1-inch digital picture frame features a 1280 x 800 HD display and lets you easily add photos and videos via the Aura app, which offers unlimited cloud storage and lets loved ones contribute images remotely. Unlike more feature-heavy frames like Nixplay’s, the Carver prioritizes simplicity and design, with a white inset mat that mimics the look of a more traditional matted frame.
- The Lutron Diva Caseta is available for $99.95 ($25 off) on Amazon right now, which is $10 shy of its lowest price to date. The smart dimmer kit lets you add smart controls to your existing lights without requiring new bulbs. It includes a dimmer switch, a Pico remote, and a hub, allowing you to control lighting through the Lutron app, set schedules, or adjust brightness from anywhere. It’s also easy to install without a neutral wire and works with Amazon Alexa, Google Home, and other major smart home platforms.
$90
Google’s Matter-compatible Nest Thermostat is a simple thermostat with a minimalist, mirrored-finish screen. It doesn’t automatically adjust to your habits, but it’s easy to install, controllable with your phone, and compatible with most HVAC systems. It also supports the new Matter standard, unlike the Nest Learning Thermostat. Read our review.
Streaming and soundbar deals
$35
Amazon’s highest-end streaming stick supports Wi-Fi 6E and offers double the storage of its predecessor. It also displays widgets and artwork when idle, while continuing to offer a terrific selection of streaming apps. Plus, it runs on the new and improved Fire TV OS, which makes it easier to find something to watch.
$369
The Sonos Beam (second-gen) is a compact soundbar that supports Dolby Atmos and can stream music from a plethora of services. Read our review.
- The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Plus is also on sale for $24.99 ($20 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target, which matches its lowest price to date. Like the 4K Max above, Amazon’s mid-tier streaming stick runs on the redesigned Fire TV OS and supports Dolby Atmos, but it offers only half the storage (8GB) and supports Wi-Fi 6 instead of Wi-Fi 6E.
- The latest Amazon Fire TV Cube is also on sale for $99.99 ($40 off) at Amazon and Best Buy. The fast streaming device supports Wi-Fi 6E along with Dolby Atmos and all the major HDR formats, including Dolby Vision, and features an HDMI input that lets you connect devices like a cable box or game console. It also pulls double duty as a decent sounding speaker with support for Amazon Alexa, so you can control smart home devices and even navigate the Fire TV interface with your voice. Read our review.
Fitness tracker and smartwatch deals
$80
The Amazfit Active 2 delivers outsized value for the price. It looks spiffy and has a wide array of health tracking features, plus built-in GPS and AI chatbots to provide extra context to your data. Read our review.
$120
The Fitbit Charge 6 features a haptic side button, an improved heart rate algorithm, turn-by-turn navigation with Google Maps, and the ability to broadcast your heart rate on certain Bluetooth gym equipment. Read our review.
- The Fitbit Ace LTE is down to around $99.95 ($80 off) at Amazon, Target, and Best Buy, matching its best price to date. The fitness tracker is designed specifically for kids, with movement-based games that encourage physical activity. It also supports GPS location tracking, along with the ability to send messages and place calls to a limited number of contacts. However, keep in mind that a Fitbit Ace Pass subscription ($9.99 per month / $119.99 per year) is required for location tracking, messaging, and access to the Fitbit Arcade. Read our hands-on impressions.
- The entry-level Fitbit Inspire 3 has returned to its all-time low of $69.95 ($30 off) at Amazon, Target, and Best Buy. The basic fitness band nails the basics, providing heart rate, sleep, exercise, blood oxygen, and menstrual health tracking. It can also provide you with a sleep score every morning, along with tips for improving your sleep. You can also remove the Inspire 3 from its band and wear it as a necklace, which is less obtrusive but disables heart rate tracking. Read our hands-on impressions.
Other Verge-approved deals
- Insta360’s Antigravity A1 is available starting at $1,279 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Antigravity’s online storefront through April 16th for the “Standard” set, which includes Vision Goggles, a remote control, a battery, a carrying case, and four spare propellers. The 360-degree drone can shoot 8K video at 30 frames per second, with the goggles letting you see exactly what the drone sees while it’s flying, providing you with a first-person view. As of February, you can use the goggles to practice flying without sending the drone into the air. In April, additional software updates will add voice controls, timelapse photography, and fun virtual effects.
- Google’s Pixel 10 is on sale starting at $549 ($250 off) at Amazon, which is its best price so far this year despite being $100 more than its all-time low. The phone is $599.99 at Best Buy.

It features a 120Hz display and runs on Google’s Tensor G5 processor while offering 12GB of RAM. The phone also offers additional AI features like Magic Cue, which can offer relevant suggestions depending on what you’re doing on your phone. Read our review.
- The Hoto Mini Bike Tire Pump is on sale for $41.98 ($18 off) at Amazon, which matches its best price to date. The palm-sized device can quickly refill bike tires up to 150 PSI, inflating a 700×23C tire from flat to 80 PSI in about a minute. Powered by a 2,000mAh battery, it can inflate up to eight flat tires per charge, and it automatically shuts off once it reaches your preset pressure.
- The Anker Nano Charging Station is on sale for $33.99 ($16 off) at Amazon, matching its best price to date.

- The latest Tile Mate is on sale for around $19 ($6 off) at Amazon, which is $5 shy of its best price to date. The platform-agnostic Bluetooth tracker helps you keep tabs on valuables within a 350-foot range and offers an IP68 water resistance rating along with two days of location history for free. It can also send SOS alerts, though you’ll need the $14.99-per-month Life360 Gold subscription to use that feature.
$99
PDP’s Riffmaster is a wireless guitar accessory compatible with Rock Band 4 and Fortnite Festival. It has two sets of color-coded buttons you can press to hit notes as they appear on the screen, a built-in 3.5mm audio jack for connecting headphones, and an analog stick to help you easily navigate through each game’s menus.
- Black & Decker’s rechargeable Furbuster is currently on sale at Amazon for $84.99, $45 off its original list price. It’s a great handheld alternative that’s well-suited for picking up fur, dirt, and other unwanted debris, especially when you tack on the extra-long crevice tool or the included motorized pet brush.
- The DJI Osmo Mobile 7P gimbal stabilizer is on sale for around $99 ($30 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Adorama, which is also its best price to date. The smartphone gimbal doubles as a selfie stick with a built-in tripod and telescoping arm. It can automatically follow you, adjust framing of your shots, and even start or stop recording with a wave of your hand. You can also pair it with one of DJI’s wireless mics, making it a handy tool for vlogging or filming on the go.
- The Instant Pot Duo Plus 9-in-1 Electric Pressure Cooker (6-Quart) is on sale for $99.99 ($40 off) at Amazon, which is $40 more than its all-time low but still the best price we’ve seen in months.

It also offers 15 one-touch cooking programs and an easy-to-read display that shows cooking time, temperature, and pressure.
$150
Amazon’s smart glasses let you play music, make hands-free calls, and use the Alexa voice assistant on the go. They don’t sound as good as the Ray-Ban Meta glasses, and Alexa can be a bit hit-or-miss, but they still look stylish and at least offer solid call quality. Read our review.
- The Keurig K-Express coffee maker is on sale for $69.99 ($40 off) at Amazon, which is $20 shy of its all-time low. The small, single-serve brewer uses K-Cup pods and makes 8-, 10-, or 12-ounce drinks at the press of a button, with a “Strong Brew” option available if needed. It also features a removable 42-ounce reservoir that holds up to four cups, along with a removable drip tray that fits most travel mugs.
- The 20-ounce Yeti Rambler is on sale for $30.40 (about $8 off) directly from Yeti, which matches the best price we’ve seen on the handy Verge favorite.
