Ive tested dozens of portable power stations — heres what Id actually buy in Amazons Big Spring Sale

I'll let you in on a little secret about portable power stations — they're almost always on some type of discount. It's rare that I see any of my favorite models listed at full price, which is not a bad thing. But it makes it harder to discern a good deal from a meh deal. To help out, I've scrolled the pages of the Amazon Big Spring Sale to find the deals I think are actually worth buying.

A portable power station has become a must-have tech item. It's like your favorite noise-cancelling earbuds — no idea how we survived without them. They've been my savior during power outages to keep the refrigerator running, my phone charged up, and the WiFi router connected. They're also well worth packing along on upcoming camping trips. Think of movie nights under the stars with a powered-up portable projector and fresh popcorn.

The one snag here is that batteries aren't cheap, and that's especially true of high-tech and long-lasting batteries found in portable power stations. Because of this, I recommend shopping for a power station during major sales like the Amazon Big Spring Sale is a wise move. Here are some of my favorite models seeing steep discounts during the sale. I'll keep this page updated as the sale rolls in and we see new deals pop up.

If you need a large and in charge power solution, whether in an emergency or going off-grid, the Bluetti Elite 200 V2 is a fantastic option. It comes with 2,600Wh of battery power, which is more than enough to charge larger items like laptops and small appliances. It's also capable of recharging your phones and keeping the WiFi router on for an extended period of time. If you find that you routinely lose power, this unit is something you'll want to keep on hand to make sure you can charge things up when you need them.

The massive Anker Solix F3800 is ideal for home backup should the power cut out. On its own, the Solix F3800 comes with 3,8400 Wh of battery capacity to keep your tech running without grid power, but Anker made this deal even better during Amazon's Big Spring Sale. The Solix F3800 comes bundled with a BP3800 Expansion Battery and a 400W solar panel. The extra battery brings the total capacity up to 7,680Wh while the addition of a solar panel puts you in line for recharging off-grid.

If you're looking for a portable power station to take along to the campground this summer, the Jackery Explorer 100 V2 is an ideal model. It's a mix of portability, durability, solid port options, and it's on sale for under $430. This Jackery model comes with 1,070Wh for recharging your phones while camping, keeping the speaker ready to go, and powering up the projector for movie nights. Plus, it weighs under 24 pounds, so you won't have to struggle lugging it around camp.

After testing dozens of portable power stations, one of my go-to models for taking along on a weekend of camping is the Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2. Sure, you can go lighter and even more portable models, but I love the Solix C1000's combination of 1,024Wh, three USB-C ports, and the excellent Anker Solix app. It's also incredibly easy to carry around the campground, weighing under 25 pounds. Plus, Anker won a Guinness World Record for the power station's ability to recharge in just 49 minutes.

Our favorite DJI deals from the Amazon Spring Sale: Drones, mics, and power stations at record lows

Sat, 03/28/2026 - 05:00
The best Amazon Big Spring Sale DJI deals at a glance: Best DJI Drone deal DJI Mavic 4 Pro Triple Camera Flagship Drone $4,399 (save $829) Get Deal Best DJI Mic Deal DJI Mic Mini (2TX + 1 RX + Charging Case) $79 (save $20) Get Deal Best DJI portable power station deal DJI Power 1000 V2 $364 (save $335) Get Deal Best DJI Gimbal Deal DJI Osmo Mobile 7P Gimbal $98.98 (save $30.02) Get Deal Best for Creators DJI Osmo Pocket 3 $439 (save $60) Get Deal

The Amazon Big Spring Sale has entered day three, bringing a slew of deals across tons of categories. Until March 31, you'll find major savings from the retailer on everything from robot vacuums to Apple Watches and outdoor deals. And we're on the case, highlighting the best deals across the most sought-after categories.

If you're looking to save on DJI products, now's the time to do so. It isn't just a drone company. DJI produces the viral DJI Mic Mini and a number of other content creation tools, including portable power stations, action cameras, and smartphone gimbals.

DJI has emerged as a Mashable reader and editor favorite, and our reporters use DJI products like the Mic Mini in our everyday work. You'll also see DJI products all over TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, where the company's products are popular with creators.

Please note: Due to the DJI drone ban and ongoing import problems, DJI products at Amazon are usually sold through third-party sellers. We recommend checking the seller's reviews and shopping accordingly (check the "Ships from" and "Sold by" information.)

This DJI drone is in stock right now, so if you've been thinking of a reason to pick one up, it's time to lock in. It's a tri-camera unit with a 100MP 4/3 CMOS Hasselblad camera with a max flight time of 51 minutes. It also comes with three batteries, spare propellers, a charging hub, shoulder bag, and other goodies. Plus, its new gimbal gives you 360-degree rotation with Dutch angles and a 41km range for timelapse and panoramic images.

This TikTok-famous DJI Mic Mini set is well-loved for a reason. It sounds great, offers up to 48 hours of recording time, and it's perfect for users both new and old thanks to its accessibility and simple setup. It comes with a receiver, two transmitters, a charging cable, phone adapter, four windscreens, two magnetic clips, and a case, so you're all set to start using it immediately.

This is the smartphone gimbal our tech editor personally uses and recommends for shooting social video at home and at events. DJI recently replaced the 7P with a new model, the DJI Osmo Mobile 8, which is also on sale. However, it's hard to argue with an under-$100 price tag. This handy gimbal lets you shoot steady video and track your face, and it pairs well with DJI wireless microphones.

Read Mashable's full review of the DJI Power 1000 V2.

It's easy to forget that DJI sells power stations, too. But the brand recently revamped its portable power lineup, and the upgraded DJI Power 1000 V2 is practically tailor-made for anyone shooting video. In her recent review, Mashable's Lauren Allain writes: "After testing the upgraded DJI Power 1000 V2, I'm convinced this is a great model for content creators, those who prioritize a super-quiet power station, or anyone looking for exceptional value in portable power."

It has a 1,024Wh capacity and features dedicated SDC ports that can super-fast-charge your DJI drone batteries, so you can get back in the air in about 30 minutes. Plus, when the station itself finally runs out of juice, you can plug it into a standard wall outlet and hit a full 100 percent charge in just 56 minutes.

I test headphones and earbuds — heres what you should buy in Amazons Big Spring Sale

Sat, 03/28/2026 - 05:00
Best Big Spring Sale headphones and earbuds deals Best headphones deal Sony WH-1000XM6 $398 (save $61.99) Get Deal Best earbuds deal Sony WF-C710N $88 (save $41.99) Get Deal Best budget headphones deal JLab JBuds Lux ANC $41.99 (Save $38) Get Deal Best open earbuds deal Sony LinkBuds Clip $198 (save $31.99) Get Deal Best sleep earbuds deal Soundcore Sleep A30 Special sleep earbuds $179.99 (save $20) Get Deal Another great headphones deal Bose QuietComfort $249 (save $100) Get Deal

As a shopping reporter, trust me when I say I understand better than most that Amazon's sale schedule can feel a little fatiguing. However, as a headphones reviewer, I also can't deny that this year's Big Spring Sale offers a great opportunity to upgrade your audio game on the cheap.

Having spent a few years testing headphones, and the last year covering the latest in noise-cancelling tech, open earbuds, and sleep earbuds, I went into this last week of March curious to see what the third iteration of Amazon's Big Spring Sale could bring. Sure, I'd seen the mega-retailer offer some solid tech deals in the two years prior, but the second day of this sale is proving that Amazon isn't playing with savings in headphones this year.

SEE ALSO: Amazon Big Spring Sale 2026: Live updates on the top deals

Already, the newly announced Apple AirPods Max 2 are $19 off, even though they're still in their preorder phase. Sony's latest flagship headphones and earbuds are both marked down, and Shokz has plenty of deals for anyone looking for a new pair of workout earbuds. And as of March 27, Bose finally has some discounts too, on three of their popular models: the QuietComfort headphones, QuietComfort Ultra 2 headphones, and Ultra Open earbuds.

This sale is on for one week, from March 25 to March 31 at 11:59 p.m. PT. Anything is possible, but with most of the below deals, I don't imagine we'll see wild fluctuations in price. In other words, if you see a pair of headphones or earbuds you like, I recommend scooping them up.

My colleagues and I will be updating this post throughout the sale, so we'll let you know if anything new and major drops.

Best headphones deal Sony WH-1000XM6 $398 at Amazon
$459.99 Save $61.99   Get Deal at Amazon Why we like it

Sony's flagship headphones, the Sony WH-1000XM6, are still relatively new, all things considered, meaning that catching them on sale isn't always a given. Granted, even though their sale price of $398 does net you a nice $61.99 price cut, they're still expensive headphones. (If you're looking for a more budget-friendly option, I recommend the Sony WH-CH720N). That said, if you're looking for the best of the best, these Sony headphones offer some of the best sound, noise cancellation, and all-day wear I've ever tried. Plus, unlike their predecessor, their ear cups actually fold. Grab them on sale in any of the available four colorways.

If the WH-1000XM6 are out of your price range, go for a more budget-friendly option. The JLab Lux are surprisingly great for a pair of headphones under $100, and right now you can get them for just $41.99.

Check out our full review of the Sony WH-1000XM6.

As much as I love a good pair of premium earbuds, I'm less in love with the idea of paying over $200 for quality ANC and sound when you can get that for much, much cheaper. For day-to-day use, I often find myself reaching for the Sony WF-C710N earbuds. They have great battery life, a compact case for easy portability, really solid ANC, and a rounded sound profile worthy of the Sony name. Bracetti called them the best Sony earbuds you can get for under $100 (when they're on sale), and I'm comfortable saying they're some of the best earbuds under $100, period.

Check out our full review of the Sony WF-C710N.

$229.99 Save $31.99   Get Deal at Amazon Why we like it

People love the Bose Ultra Open earbuds, but the Sony LinkBuds Clip are just as comfortable, sound at least as good, and at their full price, cost about $70 cheaper than the Bose buds. I have testing samples of both on my desk, and I find myself reaching for the Sony buds more.

On sale, they're over $100 cheaper than the Bose Ultra earbuds. Mashable contributor Simon Cohen deemed these earbuds a Mashable Selects winner, which means they're a favorite of the Mashable team. This sale price of $198 marks their biggest discount ever, and the first time they've ever gone below $200. For earbuds that just launched in January, that's not too shabby.

Ive tested e-readers for years — these are the best Kindle deals in the Amazon Big Spring Sale

Sat, 03/28/2026 - 05:00
The best Kindle deals from the Amazon Spring Sale: Best Kindle deal Amazon Kindle Colorsoft $169.99 (save $80) Get Deal Best Kids Kindle Deal Amazon Kindle Colorsoft Kids $189.99 (save $80) Get Deal Kindle Paperwhite Deal Amazon Kindle Paperwhite $134.99 (save $25) Get Deal Kindle Scribe Deal Amazon Kindle Scribe $249.99 (save $150) Get Deal

I read a lot and it's not just because I love it — which I obviously do — but it's also my job. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world that every day, I get to research and test e-readers. After years of testing, I'll confidently tell you that Amazon's Kindles are the best e-readers. My beloved Paperwhite is a true companion. It comes with me to the gym so I can read on the ellipitical. It's always in my beach bag in the summer. And you know I'm already loading up my Paperwhite's library for my upcoming trip to Greece.

If I've convinced you to jump on the Kindle train, that's perfect timing, as Amazon's Big Spring Sale is underway. Running March 25 through 31, the retailer dropped prices on its e-readers. The deals are a bit of a mixed bag. Some devices, like the Kindle Colorsoft and the Kindle Colorsoft Kids, are marked down to their lowest prices ever. Meanwhile, the rest of the line-up is on sale, but I've seen better deals.

That being said, if you want a Kindle for all your warm weather reading adventures, now is the time to buy. I've rounded up and explained the best Kindle deals of the moment so you can make an informed purchase.

Best Kindle Deals Opens in a new window Credit: Amazon Amazon Kindle Colorsoft $169.99 at Amazon
$249.99 Save $80   Get Deal

Usually, the Kindle Colorsoft is way too expensive for my liking, but once it goes on sale, all is forgiven. During Amazon's Big Spring Sale, the Kindle Colorsoft is marked down in a big way. Right now, grab the Kindle Colorsoft for just $169.99. That saves you $80 off its $249.99 list price.

The big draw of the Kindle Colorsoft is its color displays. The e-reader has a color resolution of 150 ppi and a black and white resolution of 300 ppi. Even with the addition of color to the Kindle Colorsoft, it remains a speedy device. Plus, it comes with no ads. Temper your expectations around color with the Colorsoft: the hues tend to be more muted than what you get on a TV or tablet. The Kindle Colorsoft is waterproof, so you can take it to the pool or beach. If you're looking for a color e-reader, this is a deal to shop during Amazon's Big Spring Sale.

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.

Spring home improvement projects just got a major upgrade.

A well-trusted brand in the industry, the DeWalt cordless power tool kit includes a compact drill driver, impact driver, reciprocal saw, circular saw, and even more. Plus, it has a few extra accessories like an LED work light, durable Bluetooth speaker, and two contractor bags for all your new tools.

The Home Depot might not seem like a retailer that would stock your favorite Amazon devices, but here we are. Matching the sale price at Amazon during the Amazon Big Spring Sale, you can snag the new Amazon Echo Spot from Home Depot for $49.99, down from the list price of $79.99. This compact bed-side device can server as your alarm clock, Bluetooth speaker, personal weather expert, schedule keeper, and more. Plus, it's a great clock which means you won't reach for your phone in the middle in the night to check on the time and then accidentally scroll Instagram for an hour.

With summer coming up quickly, it's time to consider the backyard barbecue. If the sad grill you used last year it's gonna make the cut this year, Home Depot's Spring Sale is here to offer some upgrades. One of the best deals is on the Napoleon Rogue PRO-S 625 5-Burner Propane Gas Grill which comes with a massive cooking area of 625 square inches. You'll be able to flip 39 burgers on the surface and it can heat to 400 degrees in just six minutes. Plus, it comes with a 15 year warranty.

Sat, 03/28/2026 - 05:00

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. I've also included some deals from competing retailers if they have the better price.

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.

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

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. You can also grab Fire TV Sticks starting at just $14.99, letting you stream movies and enjoy cloud gaming at home.

We've been waiting for this one: Our favorite Bose headphones are finally seeing discounts on day three of the Amazon Spring sale. The Bose QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2), the brand's current flagship, are supremely comfortable. And if you need something a little more affordable, their younger sibling is also on sale.

You can grab 55-inch Fire TVs at a very reasonable price, or a 65-inch QLED TV from Samsung, which was released last year and just got its first big price cut. 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!

I'm a big fan of JBL's Bluetooth speakers. In my testing, they've beaten out more expensive Bluetooth speakers from brands like Bose and Sonos. They're also extremely portable, super easy to use, and totally waterproof, i.e. perfect for spring and summer hangouts.

This Shark model is currently 45% off for Prime members, which is probably why it's almost sold out.

Amazon's Big Spring Sale, which runs through March 31, is going from strength to strength. But only while stocks last. We've been keeping tabs on all the top items — including all the best Apple products — and the iPads are selling out fast, with the last-gen version of the iPad Air 11-inch (with M3 chip) already gone.

But if you have been eyeing a new iPad, there are still discounts to be found elsewhere in Apple's tablet lineup — even the M4 iPad Air, the souped-up successor to the above model. 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. This latest 8th-gen version is powered by Apple's M4 chip, compared to the (now sold out) M3 previous version. You can get $50 off the Apple iPad Air 11-inch with M4 and Cellular as part of the Big Spring Sale. Or you can get the non-cellular iteration for $559, marked down from the list price of $599.

The best Apple AirTag deals from Amazon's Big Spring Sale: Best AirTag Bundle deal Apple AirTag (1st Gen) 4-Pack $59.99 (save $39.01) Get Deal

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. C'mon, what's not to like?

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, currently marked down by just $9.01), but there’s one in particular that requires fast action: Apple AirTag 4-packs are now down to their lowest ever price of $59.99, and they're selling fast. We're seeing this deal go in and out of stock as the Big Spring Sale continues, so please grab them now while they're available!

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 record-low price. We've already seen M4 MacBook Airs, iPad Airs, and AirPods Max headphones go out of stock, and AirTags could be next.

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.

If you're not looking to drop a ton of cash on new earbuds, one of our favorite deals is on the AirPods 4 without Active Noise Cancellation. These AirPods have dropped to just $99 at Amazon, saving you $30 on list price. We think these are the best budget earbuds for Apple users.

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 $149.99 at Amazon, or roughly $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 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. But it's just the purple colorway available at this price for now — the other variants have been snapped up already.

Amazon's Big Spring Sale is now well underway and will run all the way through March 31. For Apple users, these sale events are always super exciting — it's a rare chance to snag a device for significantly less. Indeed, we're seeing discounts on everything from MacBooks 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 have stolen 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).

We'll continue to update this page as new deals drop between now and March 31 — here are the best Apple Watch deals you can shop today. So far, Amazon has the best prices, but we're also checking Best Buy, Target, and Walmart for surprise savings. Either way, we've got you covered for the best Apple Watch deals.

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.

I test laptops for a living — these are my favorite MacBook deals from the Amazon Big Spring Sale

Sat, 03/28/2026 - 05:00
A quick look at the best MacBook deals from Amazon's Big Spring Sale: Best MacBook Air deal Apple MacBook Air, 15-inch (M4, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $1,099 (save $300) Get Deal Best MacBook Neo deal (that's barely a deal) Apple MacBook Neo (A18 Pro, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $689.99 (save $9.01) Get Deal Best MacBook Pro deal Apple MacBook Pro, 14-inch (M5, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $1,549 (save $50) Get Deal

Amazon's third consecutive Big Spring Sale is running through March 31. And while the sale event mainly revolves around seasonal essentials like cleaning supplies and outdoor gear, it's also hosting some very attractive 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. We're already seeing some listings disappear and some sale prices creep back up, so it's best to keep on your toes and snag those bargains while they're available.

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. 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 15-inch configuration has 16GB of memory and 512GB of storage just like the M5 base model, which is going for $100 more. It's worth noting that some 13-inch versions of the MacBook Air have already sold out. Don't miss this one while it's available and marked down by $300.

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. It's worth noting, however, that the more desirable yellow and pink editions are back at full price today, so you can only get that $9 discount on the silver and indigo versions.

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. The base configuration of the M5 MacBook Pro has a bumped-up storage of 1TB, though that version has also bumped back up in price today after being marked down to $1,580. Now it's up to $1,649, which is still $50 the list price. But if you can sacrifice some storage, the 512GB version is at $1,549.

The biggest story in the streaming world over the past 12 months (besides the confusing Warner Bros. situation)? Price hikes. So many price hikes. So, we could all benefit from some streaming deals right about now.

Black Friday is the best time of year to score discounts on streaming apps, but any major sale or shopping holiday tends to deliver a few discounts. And Amazon's Big Spring Sale (officially running until March 31) is holding true to that trend. While the overall number of deals is no match for Black Friday, we'll certainly take any discounts we can get.

As Mashable's go-to streaming expert, I'm keeping a close eye out for streaming deals throughout the Big Spring Sale. While things started out slow, we've got some new additions from Roku, including add-ons for popular streaming services like AMC+, MGM+, and Starz. Prime Video add-ons are also starting to ramp up (finally). I'll keep updating this list as any new streamers join the party.

SEE ALSO: Amazon Big Spring Sale 2026: Live updates on the top deals

Below, I've rounded up the best streaming offers live during the sale. I've also included deals on streaming devices like Fire TV Sticks, as well as some evergreen streaming deals I think are worth grabbing.

Best streaming deal overall Opens in a new window Credit: Paramount+ Paramount+ Premium $2.99/month for 2 months (save $22) Get Deal Why we like it

On the surface, this is the same offer as the streamer's Black Friday deal. However, because Paramount Plus hiked its prices in January, this Big Spring Sale discount actually saves you more money. It now costs $13.99 per month for the ad-free Premium plan and $8.99 per month for the ad-supported Essential plan.

Through March 31, you can lock in two months of either plan for only $2.99 per month. That saves you $22 if you choose the Premium plan (why wouldn't you?). Both new and ex-subscribers are eligible for this deal, and it's valid on Paramount+ as a standalone service or on the add-on subscriptions from Roku and Prime Video.

Psst. It's also worth mentioning that an extra discount code is floating around that could potentially knock the price down to just 99 cents per month for two months. However, it appears to work for some folks and not others. Try adding the additional promo code BG2L7M at checkout to see if you're one of the lucky ones.

Best streaming add-on deal Opens in a new window Credit: Starz Starz (Roku add-on) $2.99/month for 2 months (save $8/month) Get Deal Why we like it

I think Starz is honestly one of the most underrated streaming services out there. It's home to Lionsgate theatrical hits, so you'll be able to watch recent releases like The Housemaid (starting April 1) and Greenland 2: Migration. Plus, it has its own original series that are worth watching, like the TV adaptation of Lisa Taddeo's book Three Women and the serial killer comedy Sweetpea. For a limited time, Roku users can score a Starz subscription for only $2.99 per month for two months and get a taste of what the streamer has to offer. It usually costs $10.99 per month, so you'll save about $16 on two months of streaming.

Best music streaming deal Opens in a new window Credit: Spotify Spotify Premium free for 3 months (save $38.97) Get Deal Why we like it

If you've never tried Spotify Premium before, you can snag three free months of the music streaming service through March 31. Typically, it costs $12.99 per month, so you'll keep nearly $40 in your pocket with this deal. A Premium account unlocks ad-free listening, the ability to download music for offline listening and collaborate with friends in real time, 15 hours of audiobook time, and lossless audio. Plus, you'll get weekly listening stats and, should you choose to keep your subscription, access to the famous Wrapped stats.

Already tried Spotify Premium? Amazon Music Unlimited is also offering three free months of its streaming service through March 31. It regularly goes for $11.99/month for Prime members and $12.99/month for non-Prime members, so you can save up to $38.97 with this streaming deal. Besides unlimited music streaming, you'll also get access to one audiobook per month.

The newest Fire TV Stick, the 4K Select, is the first streaming device in Amazon's lineup to shake things up in awhile. While it still offers the same plug-and-play design you know and love, it features a brand-new operating system called Vega. Given how laggy the previous operating system could be on Fire TV Sticks, we're pretty excited about this change. It also offers support for Alexa+, Amazon Kids+, Amazon Luna, Xbox Game Pass, and NordVPN, and delivers 4K quality with HDR10+ support.

As part of the Big Spring Sale, it's now down to just $14.99 instead of $39.99. Redeem the code FTVSELECT to access this discount.

Amazon's Big Spring Sale is back for its third consecutive year, with deals running across the site through March 31. The retailer began rolling out wide-ranging discounts earlier this week, with more to come as prices drop on such items as robot vacuums, TVs, and your daily essentials. And if there's one thing we can always guarantee, it's that this sale features a raft of much-welcome Apple deals.

Apple has kept us very busy so far in 2026. We've been hard at work testing the first-ever budget Neo MacBook, as well as the 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 between now and March 31, so keep checking back on this page for info on the lowest-possible prices across 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. If it sells out, Walmart and Best Buy are both offering the same deal.

Just launched earlier this month, the 13-inch M4 iPad Air is already on sale for $84.50 off. The base configuration with WiFi connectivity and 128GB of storage is now just $714.50 (normally $799). 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.

What home will look like for the Artemis 2 crew headed to the moon

Sat, 03/28/2026 - 05:00

Tired of having too much space? Step into Orion, NASA's compact deep-space rental, where you and three carefully selected crewmates — er, roommates — share a single "open-concept floor plan."

Move-in includes white-glove transport on a 322-foot mega-stretch limo from Cape Canaveral, Florida. The 3 to 4Gs along the way are simply part of the… atmosphere.

Your home away from Earth comes with a do-it-yourself toilet awaiting installation on Day 1, a suitcase-size kitchenette, a free-floating gym, a stowage compartment that doubles as a radiation shelter, and six windows. But what this cozy 330-cubic-foot cabin lacks in personal space more than makes up for in actual outer space.

Gravity not included. Serious astronauts only. Must be comfortable hanging a privacy curtain if you don’t quite fit in the bathroom, sleeping in a bag strapped to the wall — and, oh yeah, remembering you're on a 685,000-mile test flight.

"It’s going to feel a lot bigger in microgravity in 3D," said Christina Koch, one of Orion's first occupants. "I’m really counting on that."

In a capsule roughly the size of a minivan, four astronauts — Koch, Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Jeremy Hansen — will spend about 10 days proving the spacecraft can safely sustain human life. The mission could launch as early as this Wednesday, April 1

The stakes reach far beyond comfort. Artemis II is NASA's first crewed mission beyond low-Earth orbit in more than a half-century — a critical test before astronauts attempt moon landings later this decade. If Orion cannot function as a reliable flying habitat, the agency's broader moon-return plans cannot proceed.

SEE ALSO: No guarantees: Inside the biggest risks facing NASA's Artemis 2 crew

The spacecraft, dubbed Integrity by the crew, must serve as cockpit, lab, dining room, bathroom, bedroom, and lifeboat all at once. Every bag, laptop, and checklist must justify its place. The astronauts will have over 50 percent more room than their Apollo predecessors — but far less than crews aboard the sprawling, 13,000-cubic-foot International Space Station.

The crew will spend their days running demonstrations and monitoring systems. One thing they won't do is leave the confines of the capsule: The mission will loop around the moon's far side — potentially carrying humans farther from Earth than ever before.

"For me, I actually feel completely 100 percent bought-in when I get in Orion. It's like climbing into my bed, and I'll feel warm and tucked-in." Engineers demonstrate how the Artemis 2 crew will sit for launch inside the Orion spacecraft, using a mock ship at NASA's Johnson Space Center.

Once the launch phase ends, Koch and Hansen will begin transforming the vehicle into living space. They will set up the toilet, water dispenser, and food warmer — and fold away the seats. Afterall, why sit in microgravity when you can float? 

Meals will be simple. A compact hot plate warms food pouches that are rehydrated using water from pressurized tanks in the service module. Menu options tested by NASA's food lab include shrimp, macaroni and cheese, and tortillas.

The toilet occupies about 5 cubic-feet under the floor near the main hatch. Astronauts can close a door or hang curtains for privacy. That may matter: Hansen, a Canadian Space Agency astronaut, is about 6-foot-2

The airflow-based system resembles the American toilet on the space station, though Orion lacks its complex water recycling. If it fails — not uncommon in orbit — the crew will rely on backup urine collection bags. They can still use it to dispose of solid waste outside — a poop chute, so to speak.

Thanks to weightlessness, astronauts can use the entire volume of the Orion spacecraft, not just the floor space. Credit: NASA infographic

To Debbie Korth, Orion's deputy program manager, the setup represents progress.

"Much nicer creature comforts than maybe some of the previous lunar exploration missions had," she said.

Exercising on the spacecraft

On Artemis II, fitness is both necessity and experiment. Near the hatch, engineers installed a flywheel device that allows astronauts to row against resistance or perform strength exercises like squats and deadlifts.

The harder they pull, the harder it pulls back. Because each motion pushes against the spacecraft, NASA will study how exercise vibrations affect Orion's steering. Engineers will also monitor how life-support systems handle spikes in carbon dioxide and humidity after workouts.

"Canada did get more than its fair share of the volume on this mission by assigning me," Hansen said. "I'm getting a little bit conscious about my size."

Shelter and survival on Orion

During the four-day outbound journey — when Orion travels beyond much of Earth’s magnetic protection — astronauts will rehearse using a radiation shelter beneath the cabin floor. After clearing storage lockers, they can hunker into a shielded cavity designed to reduce exposure during a solar storm.

For emergencies such as depressurization, the crew will wear new orange survival suits for re-entry. These are essentially mini body-shaped survival shelters, capable of providing food, water, medication, and waste removal for up to 144 hours.

Years of training in confined environments, including practice sleepovers at Johnson Space Center and cramped recovery simulations at sea, have helped the astronauts build a family-like dynamic. Then again, sibling bonds also bring sibling squabbles. 

For most nights, all four of the crew will sleep at the same time, attaching their sleeping bags to Orion's interior walls. Credit: NASA

"For me, I actually feel completely 100 percent bought-in when I get in Orion," said Wiseman, who will command the mission. "It's like climbing into my bed, and I'll feel warm and tucked-in." 

"A metal-and-plastic bed," Glover quipped. 

After parachutes slow Orion for splashdown, Navy divers will open the hatch to assist the crew. When the astronauts emerge, they'll step onto an inflatable raft. 

NASA has a nickname for it: The front porch.

Kindles are just $95 — get them at their best price in months during the Amazon Big Spring Sale

Sat, 03/28/2026 - 05:00

SAVE $15: As of March 28, you can grab a Kindle for only $94.99 at Amazon during the Big Spring Sale. That's 14% off its usual cost and its best price since early January.

If there's one thing we can always guarantee it's that Amazon devices will get the biggest discounts during the retailer's major sales events. And such is the case for Kindles during the Big Spring Sale (which runs through March 31). If you've had your eye on a Kindle, but didn't want to pay full price, now's a great time to grab one.

As of March 28, the basic Kindle is down to just $94.99 at Amazon during the Big Spring Sale. That's about $15 cheaper than usual and the best price we've seen since post-holiday season sales. Kindles do not see discounts very often, so this is likely the cheapest you'll find it until Prime Day in June.

SEE ALSO: I highly recommend grabbing Kindle Unlimited for 99 cents during the Big Spring Sale

The smallest and most affordable in Amazon's e-reader lineup, the basic Kindle is an excellent device I own this exact model in the matcha shade and am constantly recommending it to everyone I know. At only six inches, it's comfortable enough for one-handed reading and can easily slip into a purse. Though 16GB of storage may not sound like much, it's surprisingly enough to hold thousands of books. And if you ever come close to filling it up, you can simply offload books to make more space. It'll also last you up to six glorious weeks of reading before you even need to charge it.

While it's not waterproof like the Kindle Paperwhite, Mashable's resident e-reader expert's favorite, it does have the same screen resolution and adjustable front light. The display also looks just like paper has that same dose of magic that somehow makes you read incredibly fast. Just make sure if you read at the beach or in the bathtub you're extra cautious.

If you're in the market for an e-reader and don't want to spend over $100, I highly recommend grabbing the basic Kindle while it's down to just $95.

This $60 app makes kids’ screen time easier to feel good about

Sat, 03/28/2026 - 05:00

TL;DR: Get the Pok Pok lifetime subscription for $59.99 (reg. $250) and give kids ages 2 to 8 access to open-ended, Montessori-inspired learning games with no ads or in-app purchases.

Handing a kid a screen is easy. Finding something on it that doesn’t feel like brain rot is harder. If you’re looking for something a bit more thoughtful for your little one, Pok Pok focuses on open-ended, play-based learning, and its lifetime subscription is on sale for $59.99 (reg. $250).

Screen time tends to get a bad reputation, and not without reason. A lot of apps are fast, loud, and designed to keep kids tapping and scrolling for as long as possible. Pok Pok takes a different approach. Built around Montessori principles, it focuses on hands-on exploration, independence, and letting kids learn at their own pace.

To the uninitiated, Montessori is a child-centered learning approach that encourages curiosity through interaction rather than instruction. Pok Pok translates that to a digital format with a collection of games designed for kids ages 2 to 8, helping build early skills in areas like numbers, problem-solving, cause and effect, and language.

Why Pok Pok stands out:

  • Encourages creativity: Open-ended play lets kids explore without strict rules

  • Calm, low-stimulation design: Handcrafted visuals and sound avoid overwhelming kids

  • Grows with your child: Activities adapt to different ages and stages

  • Learning through play: Supports cognitive, social, and emotional development

  • Inclusive by design: Reflects diverse families and experiences

  • Regular updates: New activities keep things fresh over time

  • Privacy-focused: COPPA-certified, there are no ads or in-app purchases aimed at kids

Unlike many kids’ apps, there are no levels to beat or scores to chase. Kids can simply open the app, tap into an activity, and explore. It’s also built with real-life use in mind, whether that’s keeping kids occupied during travel or just giving parents peace of mind without worrying about what’s on the screen.

With the lifetime subscription, you get ongoing access to a growing library of activities across your family’s devices, along with regular updates over time.

Formerly a $250, a lifetime subscription to the parent-approved Pok Pok is on sale for $59.99.

Verizon is giving away the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL for free — how to claim yours this weekend

Sat, 03/28/2026 - 05:00

TL;DR: Get the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL for free from Verizon when signing up for a new line on the Unlimited Ultimate plan.

Opens in a new window Credit: Google Verizon: Free Google Pixel 10 Pro XL   Get Deal

We know the focus right now is very firmly on Amazon's Big Spring Sale, but can we pull you away from all the Apple, Samsung, and DJI deals for a moment? There's a battle being waged between top mobile carriers to offer you flagship phones for free, and we'd hate for you to miss out.

We've already highlighted free promotions on the iPhone 17 and Samsung S26 Ultra, and now it's Google's time to shine. Verizon has quietly dropped a massive deal on Google's most powerful device: the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL. For a limited time, you can score this powerful model for free. And the best part? This deal does not require a trade-in, making it one of the cleanest ways to upgrade your tech for less.

Here are the steps you need to take to get the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL for free this weekend.

How to claim a free Google Pixel 10 Pro XL

To score the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL for free with Verizon, you’ll need to follow these simple steps:

  • Add a new line — this promotion is reserved for new line additions

  • Pick the right plan — select the Unlimited Ultimate plan to qualify for the full credit

  • 36-month credit — the phone is paid via monthly bill credits spread over 36 months

With all these "free" deals, there are some costs to keep in mind. Verizon will still charge for sales tax on the full retail price of the phone upfront, and there is a one-time $35 activation fee.

The Google Pixel 10 Pro XL is an absolute beast, boasting the latest Tensor G5 chip and Google's most advanced AI camera features to date. If you're undecided on whether to go with the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL or Samsung S26 Ultra, Mashable's Adam Doud says "Google has added some useful AI features (which isn't always the case), and the powerful main camera beat out the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra in our head-to-head test."

If you've been wanting to make the switch to Google, this limited-time offer from Verizon could be your best opportunity to upgrade for less.
