It's spring cleaning season, and Amazon's Big Spring Sale is here to help you refresh any and every room. While you're taking advantage of deals on cleaning supplies like disinfectant sprays and dishwasher pods, we also recommend taking a look at your more permanent appliance lineup.

With the spring sale officially underway, tons of kitchen deals are live at Amazon now. That means you can fill any holes in your kitchen's arsenal (or replace any tools on their last legs) with new Ninja appliances, coffee makers, and trendy bakeware.

The week-long sale runs through March 31, and there you'll find great deals on Ninja appliances, Breville espresso machines and toaster ovens, Nespressos, pizza ovens, rice cookers, and more. Check out our top picks below:

If you're generally a fan of kitchen multitaskers (and who isn't), this may just be the blender for you. In addition to the full-size pitcher you'll get with most blenders, this model of the Ninja Kitchen System comes with two 18-ounce cups and an eight-cup food processor bowl, so you're sure to be covered for all your motorized chopping and blending needs. Down to $129.99 all the way from $219.99, it's at its lowest price ever — and even cheaper than budget models with fewer attachments.

Another Spring Sale, another deal on the Our Place Wonder Oven — except this year, the air fryer/countertop oven combo is just $129, beating last year's sale price by $16. Mashable's Samantha Mangino is a big fan of the air fryer, writing in a post about it last year, "While I originally received it as a gift, I would buy it 10 times over with my own money." It's cute and functional, with settings to toast, reheat, bake, broil, and air fry, and comes with three different trays: air fryer basket, baking tray, and toasting rack.

Another Ninja deal, but the Ninja Creami is a favorite of ours (and the internet's) for a reason. Easy ice cream at home is an especially welcome treat during the warmer months, so this bundle arrived just in time. Included with the Creami are four family-sized 24-ounce tubs so you can be sure you always have a frozen sweet treat on hand.

I test new vacuums every month. Here are the robot vacuum deals actually worth buying in Amazons Spring Sale.

Mashable - Fri, 03/27/2026 - 04:00
A quick look at the best Amazon Spring Sale robot vacuum deals: Best robot vacuum on sale overall Dreame X60 Max Ultra Complete $1,359.90 at Amazon (save $340.09) Get Deal Best roller mop robot vacuum deal Eufy C28 $499.99 at Amazon (save $270) Get Deal Best budget robot vacuum deal 3i G10+ $199.99 at Amazon (save $50) Get Deal

I have seven robot vacuums in my apartment right at this moment, and those are all just models that have come out in 2026. Perhaps that gives you an idea of how many robot vacuums I test at home on a yearly basis — and why I'm always super confident in telling readers which robot vacuum deals are worth it during any Amazon sale event.

So, I'm back with an updated list of robot vacuum recommendations for Amazon's 2026 Big Spring Sale, which is live now through March 31. A good robot vacuum is a staple in my general spring cleaning starter kit because automating your floor care quite literally frees up some time to focus on the chores you don't do as often.

SEE ALSO: The Shark UV Reveal robot vacuum came out less than a month ago. It's already on sale for Amazon's spring sale.

A ton of solid robovacs at all price points are up to 50% off, significantly expanding the number of options within your ideal budget. Even the fanciest flagship Dreame, Roborock, and Shark robot vacuums that just came out are already seeing discounts. I'm tracking all of the best Amazon spring sale robot vacuum deals below.

(Looking for the best cordless vacuum deals or the best spring cleaning deals to restock kitchen, bathroom, and laundry products? I'm tracking those, too.)

Best robot vacuum on sale overall Eufy C28 $499.99 at Amazon
$799.99 Save $300   Get Deal at Amazon Get Deal at Eufy

Read Mashable's review of the Eufy C28.

While I'm stoked that the most powerful robot vacuums of the year are actually seeing decent discounts, they still cost more than $1,000 on sale. So the more realistic route for my "best robot vacuum deal overall" pick is the Eufy C28, now under $500 (compared to its usual $799). It's still a 2026 premium robot vacuum and mop combo that rocked during my testing, and it's likely the most affordable mainstream roller mop robot vacuum you'll find this season.

If you're jaded from a bad mopping robot vacuum experience in the past, it's probably because it smeared dirty water more than it scrubbed. I think that this Eufy's self-rinsing roller mop will change your mind. Its fluffy material is already more absorbent than the typical thin mopping pad — but just to ensure liquid spills aren't being smeared around, the C28's roller gets rinsed with clean water multiple times per second. Its self-emptying dock also washes and dries the mop after each cleaning.

Best budget robot vacuum deal 3i G10+ $199.99 at Amazon
$249.99 Save $50   Get Deal at Amazon

Read Mashable's review of the 3i G10+.

In search of a cheap robot vacuum that doesn't suck? The $149.99 Shark Ion robot vacuum that probably popped up first at Amazon is far from the best robot vacuum under $200 during this sale. Instead, I'd point you to a more niche budget pick that wowed me during testing. Last year, I said that the 3i G10+ was "the most impressive robot vacuum under $500" (and that you've probably never heard of it). Now, it's on sale for a record-low $199.99.

The G10+ uses a unique dust compression system to keep you off dustbin emptying duty for 60 days, but without requiring space for a traditional self-empty dock. This means that the G10+ can live under relatively low-clearance furniture like a couch or TV stand. In this price range, I was blown away by its small obstacle avoidance capabilities and livestream pet camera. The Shark Ion doesn't even have smart mapping for cleaning specific rooms on command.

If you don't want to shell out that extra $50, you can spend the same $149.99 on the Roborock Q7 M5. That still secures mopping, room or zone cleaning through LiDAR smart mapping, and 10,000 Pa of suction power, beating the Shark Ion by a long shot.

Warmer weather means you can put away your heavy winter coats and pull out the antihistamines because spring allergies are on their way. If you're already getting the pollen-induced sniffles, you can do one thing to protect your home air: get an air purifier.

Smoke, dust, and pet hair don't stand a chance against the Blueair Blue Pure 311i Max. It cleans up to 1,858 square feet in just one hour, plus it does so quietly. For Amazon's Big Spring Sale, the air purifier is down to $169, saving you $60.99 off its $229.99 list price.

Read Mashable's review of the Eufy C28.

Mashable's robot vacuum expert, Leah Stodart, tested and loved the Eufy C28 when it came out last month. At $499.99 for the Big Spring Sale, the Eufy C28 is not only the most affordable roller mop robot vacuum you'll find this season, but the best budget robot vacuum and mop combo period.

If you're jaded from a bad mopping robot vacuum experience in the past, it's probably because it smeared dirty water more than it scrubbed. Stodart thinks that this Eufy's self-rinsing roller mop will change your mind. Its fluffy material is already more absorbent than the typical thin mopping pad — but just to ensure liquid spills aren't being smeared around, the C28's roller gets rinsed with clean water multiple times per second.

The best deals in Home Depots Spring Sale — score free power tools from DeWalt, Milwaukee, and Ryobi

Home Depot doesn't hold competition sales for any of Amazon's seasonal sales as reliably as Target or Walmart do. That doesn't mean that there aren't any good spring deals to be found at Home Depot during Amazon's Big Spring Sale. You just have to scroll a little bit.

So far, Home Depot is once again giving away some free power tools with select purchases — reminiscent of the BOGO cordless tool promo we saw during Black Friday. (But hurry, some of the free DeWalt deals have sold out already.) Home Depot is also quietly competing with Wayfair's Big Outdoor Sale with discounts on outdoor furniture, as well as up to 40% off in other home categories, from mattresses to wallpaper to area rugs from big brands like Safavieh.

Best Buy’s Tech Fest is over, but these deals are still worth your cash

The Amazon Big Spring Sale is getting all the attention in the retail world right now (which, fair, it's basically a pregame for July's Prime Day event). But Amazon isn't the only retailer dropping prices this week.

In a completely unsurprising move to steal some of that spotlight, Best Buy threw its own Tech Fest sale over the weekend. The official event has technically wrapped up, but a ton of those discounts are still live on the site as of March 26, including markdowns on big-ticket items like OLED TVs, noise-canceling headphones, and Apple products.

So before you blow your entire shopping budget at Amazon, here are the best leftover Best Buy deals you can add to your cart right now.

There are literally hundreds of leftover deals still floating around Best Buy's site right now, and we'll be updating this piece as we dig through more of them. But if we had to single out a discount to jump on right this second, it's this one. Scoring a 65-inch Samsung OLED for under $900 is basically unheard of outside of Black Friday. If you've been waiting for an excuse to finally upgrade your living room setup, saving over a grand on a premium display beats paying full price for whatever shiny new model drops next month.

Now that Amazon's Big Spring Sale has kicked off, we're watching all the savings roll in. And deals are going far beyond Amazon — other retailers are joining in too. Target and Best Buy got in on the savings early, and now Walmart is catching up.

SEE ALSO: Amazon's Big Spring Sale is surprisingly good: We found 111+ deals on Apple, DJI, Sony, and Dyson

Walmart's deals are admittedly the least impressive of all the retailers running spring sales. But we've found some gems, including discounts on a Dyson stick vacuum and a Lenovo gaming laptop that you won't see on Amazon. Beyond those, Walmart is also price-matching some of Amazon's Big Spring Sale offers, which is good to keep in mind in case they wind up selling out there.

Read on to see our list of all the best deals worth shopping during Walmart's Spring Sale.

Best Apple deal Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple AirTags (1st Gen, 4-pack) $59.99 at Walmart

Apple launched the new AirTag 2 in January, which, of course, means the original AirTags are priced to move. Walmart and Amazon are both selling four-packs of them for the record-low price of $59.99 (normally $99), which works out to just $15 per tracker. That's a steal.

Our favorite budget headphones are the JLab Jbuds Lux ANC headphones, which bring excellent active noise cancellation and 70 hours of battery life. While they won't deliver the best sound you've ever heard, it is going to be clear, well-balanced sound. They're an unbeatable value even when they're not on sale, but right now, you can score a pair for just $41.99 (a $38 savings). Amazon is matching that deal.

Our resident cleaning expert thinks the V12 Detect Slim is the best Dyson vacuum for most people, especially folks who live in small spaces. (It has a runtime of about one hour per charge.) There's a green laser on the front of it that spotlights easily missable crumbs and hairs, and it's light enough to wield with one hand. Walmart has it marked down to $479.99, normally $729.99, which matches a deal on Dyson's website. It's not available on Amazon, on sale or not.

This 15-inch gaming laptop features a sharp and vibrant OLED display with a silky-smooth 165Hz refresh rate. Walmart is selling it for 22% off, which brings it down to $1,449 (normally $1,849.99). Amazon also has a Lenovo Legion 5i with RTX 5070 graphics, 16GB of RAM, and a terabyte of storage on sale right now, but it has a worse processor — and it's $20 pricier.

A fan is more than a quick fix, but an essential way of keeping cool. Dreo makes our favorite tower fan, which is powerful but safe with its bladeless design. During Walmart's Spring Sale, you can get it for just $79.99. That saves you 44% on its $143.98 list price.

Target Circle Deal Days is coming to an end — last chance to shop the best deals from Targets rival sale

Mashable - Fri, 03/27/2026 - 04:00
Best Target Circle Deal Days deals: Best robot vacuum deal Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow $849.99 (save $150) Get Deal Best smart home deal Amazon Echo Dot Max $74.99 (save $25) Get Deal

Amazon isn't the only one with a spring sale. To compete with Amazon's Big Spring Sale, Target launched its own sale. Target Circle Deal Days runs now through March 27. While it is a members-only sale, the good news is that Target's Circle membership is free.

This continues the tradition of retailers following in Amazon's footsteps. When Amazon launches a sale, retailers will quickly follow suit. So what's the deal with Target Circle Deal Days? Here's everything you need to know.

What is Target Circle Deal Days?

Target's Circle Deal Days (also known as Circle Week) sale runs from March 25 to 27. The retailer is marking down thousands of items up to 50% off, focusing on the season's coveted items as we transition into Spring. Target Circle 360 members — aka Target's paid membership tier — gained early access to the sale on March 24.

Target's not-so-coincidental sale runs at the same time as Amazon's Big Spring Sale, which spans March 25 through 31.

Do you need to be a Target Circle member to shop the sale?

Yes, to shop Target Circle Deal Days, you need to be a Target Circle member. Luckily, membership is free to join — it's basically just a loyalty program. Joining today costs nothing and may even save you money. Target does have a paid membership tier, Target Circle 360, which offers free shipping, same-day delivery, and more. For Target Circle Deal Days, Circle 360 members got early access to the sale back on March 24.

What's on sale during Target Circle Deal Days?

Now that the sale is officially live, Target's deals are in full swing. The focus of the sale is refreshing for the new season, so expect to see savings on swimwear, activewear, home goods, and toys. Here are the best deals to shop now.

Read Mashable's full Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow review.

Our vacuum expert and Lead Shopping Reporter, Leah Stodart, says the Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow is the best roller-mop robot vacuum for people with children or pets. And right now, you can get it on sale at Target for $849.99, down from $999.99.

"The Qrevo Curv 2 Flow is Roborock's first mopping model like that, and it has rocked in my testing at home," she writes, noting that it's become her "go-to" robot vacuum for "any mess bigger than a single droplet."

The Curv 2 Flow features 20,000 Pa HyperForce suction, DirTect technology, and a SpiraFlow real-time self-cleaning mop. It'll reach 167 degrees Fahrenheit during cleaning and 131 degrees during air-drying.

Best smart home deal Opens in a new window Credit: Amazon Amazon Echo Dot Max $74.99 at Target
$99.99 Save $25   Get Deal Why we like it

The Amazon Echo Dot Max is Amazon's newest smart speaker (released in Sept. 2025). Amazon designed this model specifically to give you a "room-filling" experience for a fraction of the price of an Echo Studio. It's the perfect middle ground if you want genuinely good sound for your kitchen or living room, but don't want to surrender half your counter space to a giant speaker.

As a sweet bonus, this smart speaker comes fully equipped with the upgraded Alexa+ assistant. It's completely free to use if you already have an Amazon Prime membership, making this sub-$75 price tag a total steal for the amount of tech you're getting.

Mashable - Fri, 03/27/2026 - 04:00

As Mashable's tech editor, it's my job to test the latest and greatest products from brands like Apple, Samsung, and DJI. But I also get to test cool under-the-radar finds and random gadgets only true tech nerds know about. For day two of the Amazon Big Spring Sale, I hand-picked a fresh batch of tech deals that are actually worth shopping.

Amazon Big Spring Sale tech deals: Best of the best Best Kindle deal Kindle Paperwhite $134.99 (save $25) Get Deal Best Budget Headphones Sony WH-CH520 Wireless On-Ear Headphones $48 (save $21.99) Get Deal Best Noise-Cancelling Headphones Sony WH-1000XM6 Noise-Cancelling Headphones $398 (save $61.99) Get Deal Best Drone Deal DJI Neo Mini 4K Drone $149 (save $50) Get Deal Best Amazon Device Deal Amazon Echo Dot Max $74.99 (save $25) Get Deal Best Apple Deal Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen) $189 (save $60) Get Deal Best MacBook Deal Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M4, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $949 (save $250) Get Deal Best Creator Deal DJI Mic Mini $45 (save $14) Get Deal Best Streaming Deal Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Select $14.99 (save $25 with code FTVSELECT) Get Deal Best Tech Accessories Deal Apple AirTags, 1st Gen (4-Pack) $59.99 (save $39.01) Get Deal

Between inflation, a global memory shortage, and overall economic anxiety (trust me — I'm feeling it, too!), you don't want to miss a chance to save some money.

I've personally tested many of these products, and I'm only recommending genuine deals, because we all know big retailers like to play fast and loose with the definition of the word "deal."

So, whether you have an old laptop that needs replacing or want to check out last-chance deals on last-gen tech, check out my guide to the best Big Spring Sale tech deals.

Kindles starting at $94.99

I don't know what I'd do without my Kindle. As an avid book collector, I have literally run out of space to store books, and so I depend on my Kindle Paperwhite. And just like during Black Friday, you can grab my beloved Kindle on sale for $134.99, with the base Kindle available for under $100.

During the Big Spring Sale, you can shop wireless Sony headphones starting at just $48. On day one of the savings event, Sony's flagship cans, the famous XM6 headphones, are also discounted to $398, their best-ever price. I loved these headphones, and as I wrote in my review, "The ANC in the XM6 is as good as or better than any I've ever heard."

However, if you're looking for something in the mid-range, you can also grab the bass-heavy Sony ULT Wear Headphones on sale for $148, another Mashable Choice winner, at a 41% discount.

See also: AirTags and AirPods. Even the brand-new AirPods Max 2 have a slight discount at Amazon.

Pro tip: If you're looking for the AirPods Max headphones, they're out of stock at Amazon but still available at Target and Walmart — for now.

Yes, technically, DJI drones are banned in the United States, but they're still widely available from third-party sellers at Amazon. (It's complicated.) If you're a creator, real estate professional, or wedding photographer who wants to take beautiful aerial videos in 4K — or just an aspiring pilot looking to have some fun outdoors — these drones are by far the most popular choice.

Amazon Echo device deals

As per usual, some of the best deals of the spring Amazon sale are on Amazon's own products, particularly in the Echo lineup. I was at the fall 2025 event where Amazon unveiled its new Echo smart home products, which include refreshes to the popular Echo Dot and Echo Show devices.

During Prime Day, you can grab TVs starting at just $99. However, I recommend spending a little more than that. You can grab 55-inch Fire TVs at a very reasonable price, and Hisense has a good 65-inch QLED TV for just $377. Unfortunately, I'm still waiting for good deals on my favorite TV: The Frame art TV from Samsung.

For the Big Spring Sale, Amazon is going hard with DJI deals, and you can find massive discounts on the brand's popular line of creator gadgets. I personally use the DJI Mic Mini and DJI Osmo Mobile 7P Gimbal when shooting videos for Mashable (check our Instagram story to see my latest).

But let me also call your attention to the cult-favorite DJI Osmo Pocket 3 Vlogging camera, which almost never goes on sale like this. Pro creators and YouTubers are obsessed with this camera (in my review, I wrote, "it should replace whatever vlogging camera you're using now"), so grab it before it goes out of stock again!

Amazon's Big Spring Sale is live and kicking, running now through March 31. This particular sale event typically ushers in discounts on a wide range of items, giving you a springtime treat before the major sales events get going later in the year (such as Prime Day). That even includes our favorite Apple products, many of which have fallen to record-low prices this week.

If you’ve been eyeing an iPad, we've spotted discounts of up to $200 across Apple's tablet lineup — even the just-updated M4 iPad Air. (Its predecessor is way cheaper, though.) We’ve pulled together the best live deals to make things easier. Note: Offers marked with a 🔥 have dropped to an all-time low.

We consider the iPad Air to be the best Apple tablet for most people: It's great for everyday activities like streaming and reading, but it's also powerful enough to use like a laptop. You can get an 11-inch M3 model with cellular connectivity for just $549.99 during the Big Spring Sale, or about $200 off — its biggest discount ever. The newer M4 version without cellular is $5 more expensive, and you're only looking at a small gen-over-gen speed boost there.

Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is officially underway, and we’re already seeing some pretty promising price drops across multiple categories, including $300 price cuts on MacBooks and $400 off Apple Watches.

Of course, we’re holding out to see if Amazon’s going to gift us with additional Apple deals (we're looking at you, MacBook Neo), but there’s one in particular that requires fast action: Apple AirTag 4-packs are now down to a new record-low price of $59.99, and they're selling fast. We're seeing this deal go in and out of stock, so please shop accordingly!

Don't forget: Apple recently released a new generation of Apple AirTags, so we don't know how much longer these trackers will be available, especially at this price.

The updated Apple AirTag 2 is still at full price, but you can get a four-pack of first-gen AirTags for just $59.99 right now, or $15 per tracker.

These little trackers are total lifesavers for anyone who's always misplacing their keys or wants some peace of mind by stashing one in their checked luggage. (I use them to keep tabs on my dogs when I'm visiting my parents.) You can track your stuff directly in the Find My app, and if you’re nearby, your iPhone can lead you straight to the exact cushion your wallet is hiding under.

Note: If these trackers go out of stock at Amazon, you can also find them at this price at Best Buy and Walmart.

It's official: Amazon's Big Spring Sale is back and going strong until March 31. As always with these big sale events, we've been on the case since kickoff to find the very best deals across all kinds of products. And we've spotted some absolutely stellar deals on Apple AirPods — deals that sound as good as Apple audio tech.

The AirPods Pro 3, AirPods 4 (both with and without ANC), and first-gen AirPods Max are already on sale at Amazon. Day two of the sale also delivered a surprise: The just-released AirPods Max 2 just got their first discount, if only a teensy one.

If you've been looking to score new earbuds or headphones to pair with your Apple tech this year, we've gathered up our favorite early AirPods deals for you into one place.

If you had your eye on the AirPods 4 with ANC, the good news is those are also on sale right now. They are currently marked down to just $148.99 at Amazon, or about $30 off their original list price of $179. So no matter which option you choose, you can save some cash right now.

The AirPods Pro 3 are some of our favorite earbuds for Apple users, earning spots on both our lists of the best headphones and best earbuds. Our review had high praise for them, with writer Adam Doud calling them, "a remarkable upgrade in functionality over their predecessors, with better battery life and ANC, as well as a new heart rate sensor."

Boasting great sound quality and noise-cancelling features, alongside a hefty battery life that can last up to eight hours (with ANC) on a single charge, these AirPods are a nice upgrade indeed. Ahead of Amazon's Big Spring Sale, they're marked down to $199.

Premium noise-canceling headphones from brands like Sony and Bose are a much better value, but AirPods Max are a popular pick nonetheless. (If nothing else, they're super stylish.) Apple announced the AirPods Max 2 with better ANC and smart features earlier this month, and now the first-gen models with USB-C charging are on sale on Amazon for $449.99. That's about $100 off their regular retail price of $549.

Amazon's Big Spring Sale is now well underway and live through March 31. For Apple users, this is a pretty exciting occasion. We're seeing discounts on everything from Apple Watches to AirPods. So, if you've been hoping to get your hands on a brand-new smartwatch but refuse to pay full price, several Apple Watch models are on sale right now, with savings of up to $300.

The Series 11 and SE 3 are the newest shining stars in Apple's lineup, but a few last-generation models are stealing the spotlight during the Big Spring Sale. If you don't mind an older model, you can pick up the Apple Watch SE 2 for just $189 (save $60), or the Apple Watch Ultra 2 for $499 (save $300).

Of course, we'll be updating this page as new deals drop, but here are the best Apple Watch deals you can shop right now. So far, Amazon has the best prices, but we're also checking Best Buy, Target, and Walmart for surprise savings.

A $100 discount on the 42mm GPS Apple Watch Series 11 drops it to a record-low price, making it the perfect time to grab what our Tech Editor, Timothy Beck Werth, calls the "Best Apple Upgrade." Mashable's Stan Schroeder agrees, noting the battery life alone is worth the jump. "Even if you already have a Series 10, which has nearly all the same features, the new Apple Watch Series 11 doesn’t require you to charge it mid-day in order to keep it going through the night," he writes.

If you just want a reliable smartwatch without paying for features you won't use, the Apple Watch SE 3 is the way to go. We named it the "Best for Most People" in our smartwatch guide because it packs the exact same S10 chip as the Ultra 3 and the same water resistance as the Series 11 — "all for $150 less than the Series 11."

Now that the Big Spring Sale is in full swing, the 40mm model is down to $219, saving you $30. It’s also not the only configuration on sale right now. We've rounded up a few other discounted SE 3 models below so you can pick your preferred setup and still save some cash.

Amazon's third annual Big Spring Sale runs through March 31. The event mainly revolves around seasonal essentials like cleaning supplies and outdoor gear, but it also prompts some good deals on must-have tech — including flagship Apple products like MacBooks. As Mashable's resident laptop expert, I'm on the case.

Apple actually just refreshed its MacBook lineup earlier this month, announcing updated MacBook Airs and Pros in addition to an all-new budget MacBook Neo. Most configurations of these new releases are seeing their very first (tiny) discounts during the Big Spring Sale, while their predecessors are priced to move at up to $300 off.

SEE ALSO: Amazon's Big Spring Sale is surprisingly good: We found 111+ deals on Apple, DJI, Sony, and Dyson

Keep in mind that Apple has discontinued its last-gen MacBooks, which means they'll only be available on the refurbished market once third-party retailers' inventories dry up. So, if you see a good deal on an M4 MacBook Air or Pro on Amazon this week, don't wait too long to add it to your cart. I think they'll sell out there long before this summer's Prime Day sale.

I'll continue to monitor Amazon's Big Spring Sale MacBook deals as the sale continues into next week, so check back if nothing catches your eye just yet. At least one model has gotten cheaper since the sale started on March 25, FYI. (That would be the base M5 MacBook Pro, which was $1,649 on Wednesday and $1,580 at the time of writing.) Note: Deals marked with a 🔥 have dropped to a record-low price.

The M4 MacBook Air may be a last-gen laptop, but it's still an incredibly capable ultraportable. (In our testing, it proved much faster than much pricier Windows laptops.) It has the same 12MP Center Stage webcam, Liquid Retina display, and 18-hour battery life as its new M5 counterpart, which just offers slightly faster performance and newer wireless connectivity. This 13-inch configuration has 16GB of memory and 512GB of storage just like the M5 base model, which is going for $100 more.

Nine bucks off barely counts as a discount, but this is the best MacBook Neo deal I've seen outside of the Apple Store itself. (You can get $100 off there, but only if you're a college student, a parent of one, or school faculty.) This colorful little laptop has the same premium aluminum build as any other MacBook, and it boasts incredibly impressive single-core performance; in basic everyday tasks like web browsing, it's just as fast as an M4 MacBook Air. This particular model comes with Touch ID.

A MacBook Pro has more ports and a brighter, smoother display than a MacBook Air. It's also better at handling heavier workloads (like video editing) over a long period of time since it has fans. I recommend it as an upgrade pick for power users like content creators and developers. This is the new base configuration of the M5 MacBook Pro; Apple just bumped it up from 512GB of storage. It's been cheaper on Amazon recently — $1,499 is its all-time low — but it's not currently cheaper anywhere else. Best Buy is selling it for full price.

Got spring cleaning on your mind? So does Amazon: The retail giant is putting last-gen tech on sale at deep discounts during the Big Spring Sale (March 25 to 31), its main seasonal savings event, to clear out its remaining inventory.

Older versions of some of our favorite gadgets are currently on sale there for record-low prices (or close to them). The zippy M4 MacBook Air? Up to $150 cheaper than the iterative M5 version Apple announced this month. The superb Sony WF-1000XM5 earbuds? Only $248. Previous-generation Echo devices? Grab the 2022 Echo Dot smart speaker or Echo Show 5 smart display for 20% off. Finally, the first-gen AirTags have literally never been cheaper, and this could be your last chance to grab them now that the AirTag 2 has been released.

Amazon's Big Spring Sale is back for its third year, running now through March 31. The retailer is officially rolling out wide-ranging discounts across multiple categories, with prices dropping on items such as robot vacuums, TVs, and even daily essentials. And if there's one thing we can always guarantee, it's that this sale features plenty of solid, much-welcome Apple deals.

Apple has kept us very busy in 2026, and we've been hard at work testing the first-ever budget MacBook, upgraded MacBook Airs and MacBook Pros, a new iPad Air, and the iPhone 17e. Next on our Apple to-do list: the upcoming AirPods Max 2.

With so many new Apple products, we're seeing a bunch of first-time discounts during the Amazon spring sale, as well as new record-low prices on last-gen models like the Apple Watch SE 2. What more could you want from a major sale event?

We'll be tracking prices on AirPods, MacBooks, and iPads from now until March 31, so keep an eye on this page to make sure you're getting the lowest-possible price on Apple products.

We've always been fans of the AirPods Pro, but the third generation really takes them to new heights. Mashable's reviewer called them, "without a doubt, one of the best products of the year" in 2025.

The latest premium buds feature outstanding noise cancellation (twice as good as the Pro 2), a solid eight hours of battery life with ANC on, and new foam-infused tips that come in five sizes to find the perfect fit. Apple also brought the heart rate monitoring tech from the Powerbeats Pro 2 (our favorite earbuds for working out) and Fitness app compatibility to the new AirPods Pro 3, and introduced a live translation feature.

While we've seen the buds drop as low as $184 in the past, this Amazon spring sale discount is still worth grabbing.

This four-pack of Apple's Bluetooth trackers keeps going in and out of stock on Amazon, which is hardly surprising: It's never been cheaper there. (It dipped to $62.99 on Black Friday, but the $59.99 sale price is a new record-low price.) You wind up paying just $15 per AirTag.

Mashable's tech editor took the M4 iPad Air for a spin and found it pretty impressive — too impressive for the average user, even. "It delivers iterative updates that improve an already stellar tablet," he writes in his review.

Apple released its new MacBook Air with the M5 chip this month, but honestly, they're not a whole lot different than the M4 Airs. The main differences are the upgraded processor and a new wireless chip. You can save some money by grabbing the M4 model with 16GB RAM and 512GB of storage, which is currently down to just $949 at Amazon. We're keeping our eyes on this laptop, as we expect to see it drop further as the sale nears. But make note that since it is now an older model, it could sell out fast.

The Apple Watch Series 11 offers significant battery improvements over its predecessor. For that reason alone, it's worth the upgrade. It also features a tougher build with durable glass that's twice as resistant to scratches, 5G capability for quicker connectivity, and a Sleep Score and hypertension tool that can flag chronic high blood pressure. It's not a major upgrade (is anything in 2026?), but as Mashable's reviewer put it: "Buy it for the battery life." Now $100 cheaper, it's an even better value.

According to our review, Apple's AirPods Pro 3 are an "easy buy" if you've been looking for a new pair of AirPods. It's easy to see why: They have excellent ANC, eight hours of listening time per charge, a built-in heart rate monitor, and live translation features. While they hit a lower price of $184 back in February, this markdown is still worth checking out.

The JBuds Lux ANC are the best budget headphones we've tested in recent memory, offering decent noise cancellation, a long battery life, and balanced sound. (Just note that their fit can be hit or miss.) They're a great value at their regular price of $80, but a coupon on their Amazon product page bumps them down to just $37.79 — a 50% savings. We saw them dip to $27 at Walmart on Black Friday, but this is their lowest-ever price on Amazon. Choose from four colors: graphite, cloud white, mauve, or sage.

Mashable's robot vacuum expert, Leah Stodart, tested and loved the Eufy C28 when it came out last month. At $499.99 for the Big Spring Sale, the Eufy C28 is not only the most affordable roller mop robot vacuum you'll find this season, but the best budget robot vacuum and mop combo period.

If you tried a cheap mopping robot vacuum in the past that smeared more than scrubbed, let the Eufy's self-rinsing roller mop change your mind. Its fluffy bath towel material is already more absorbent than the typical thin mopping pad — but just to ensure liquid spills aren't being smeared around, the C28's roller gets rinsed with clean water as it's mopping. Its self-emptying dock also washes and dries the mop after each cleaning.

The newest Fire TV Stick in Amazon's lineup, the 4K Select, was one of Mashable readers' (and editors') favorite deals from Black Friday. We saw it drop to a wildly low price of $9.99 during that sale, but right now you can grab it for $14.99 using the code FTV4K. It offers support for Alexa+, HDR10+, Amazon Kids+, Amazon Luna, Xbox Game Pass, and NordVPN, and it's already more than 50% off.

Weighing in at just under 25 pounds, Anker's Solix C1000 Gen 2 portable power station makes an excellent camping companion. The power station can keep your devices juiced up and even has enough oomph to power up some cute fairy lights or whip up a quick meal in the air fryer. It can also recharge in under 50 minutes, which can really come in handy when you're off the grid. Mashable's reviewer called it "the perfect model for taking on a weekend camping trip or keeping around the house for occasional power outages."

The Neo is the perfect starter drone for people just venturing into the drone hobby for the first time — and not just because of the low price. This camera offers a 4K camera for shooting gorgeous aerial videos and a 12MP camera. It can take off from the palm of your hand, and it's super portable. For creators and hobbyists, it's a great entry point.

Hisense's 2025 U7 TV combines mini LED backlighting with a 165Hz refresh rate and Dolby Atmos to pack a major punch with a not-so-major price tag. At least, now that it's considered a last-generation model.

But here's why this is such a good deal: The 2026 version of the same TV (unveiled on March 6) will run you $1,999.99 for the 75-inch model. If you opt for last year's version instead, it'll only cost you $897.96. Not only is that over 50% off, but it's about $100 cheaper than it was just last month for President's Day.

If you're an on-the-go gamer, the Asus ROG Flow Z13 should make your shortlist.

GTA V star Ned Luke he uses one when he travels, and he told us it's "an animal." The model with 32GB of RAM and a terabyte of disk space is $330 off on Amazon, and it comes with a free copy of Crimson Desert. It's never been cheaper before. (Best Buy is price-matching it, but doesn't throw in the free game code.)

We're happy to report that the bestselling Ninja Creami is just as great as TikTok says it is.

This TikTok-famous appliance is marked down to $199.99 during the Big Spring Sale (or $30 off), which matches deals at Best Buy, Target, and the SharkNinja website. However, Amazon one-ups them all by throwing in a free $20 credit on top of that discount; you save $50 total there.

The Supersonic Nural's main flex over the regular Supersonic is a system of sensors that automatically lower heat near your head, preventing a sizzling scalp. The Nural can also remember your preferred settings just based on the attachment being used, and knows to pause airflow when you set it down.

Warmer weather means open windows at home. And for the lucky folks, open windows at home mean allergy-induced sniffles. Make this the year that you finally get an air purifier for your home. This Blueair model can clean up to 1,858 square feet in an hour (a much larger reach than other purifiers under $200 in this list). The powerful HEPA filter can remove airborne particles that irritate our respiratory systems, like pollen, dust, mold spores, pet dander, and smoke, so you'll benefit from the benefits of filtered air indoors year-round.

Hurdle hints and answers for March 27, 2026

Mashable - Fri, 03/27/2026 - 00:00

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.

There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it'll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters clearly shown.

An important note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle.

If you find yourself stuck at any step of today's Hurdle, don't worry! We have you covered.

Moon phase today: What the Moon will look like on March 27

Mashable - Fri, 03/27/2026 - 00:00

Can you see anything on the Moon's surface tonight? It's more than half illuminated, so if it's a clear sky, your chances are pretty good. Keep reading to find out exactly what you can see tonight.

What is today’s Moon phase?

As of Friday, March 27, the Moon phase is Waxing Gibbous. According to NASA's Daily Moon Guide, 67% of the Moon will be lit up tonight.

Tonight, without visual aids, you can spot the Fecunditatis, Crisum, and Vaporum Mares. With binoculars, you'll also be able to catch a glimpse of the Posidonius Crater, Alps Mountains, and the Appennine Mountains.

If you're lucky enough to have a telescope stowed away, take it out to be able to see even more, including the Rima Ariadaeus, Descartes Highlands, and the Caucasus Mountains.

When is the next Full Moon?

In North America, the next Full Moon is predicted to take place on April 1.

What are Moon phases?

According to NASA, the Moon completes one orbit around Earth in roughly 29.5 days, cycling through eight distinct phases. While the same side of the Moon always faces us, sunlight illuminates varying portions as it travels, making it appear full, half, or a narrow crescent. These shifting appearances are known as the lunar phases, and there are eight in total:

New Moon - The Moon is between Earth and the sun, so the side we see is dark (in other words, it's invisible to the eye).

Waxing Crescent - A small sliver of light appears on the right side (Northern Hemisphere).

First Quarter - Half of the Moon is lit on the right side. It looks like a half-Moon.

Waxing Gibbous - More than half is lit up, but it’s not quite full yet.

Full Moon - The whole face of the Moon is illuminated and fully visible.

Waning Gibbous - The Moon starts losing light on the right side. (Northern Hemisphere)

Third Quarter (or Last Quarter) - Another half-Moon, but now the left side is lit.

Waning Crescent - A thin sliver of light remains on the left side before going dark again.
