Prime Big Deal Days ends tonight, but there are still plenty of steals to be had, starting with the 11″ Apple iPad Pro M4 (128GB), which arrives with a body so slim and light that slipping it into a bag alongside a notebook feels like an afterthought. The device weighs just under a pound at 0.98 pounds, is only 0.21 inches thick, and combines that compact form with a tandem OLED panel that layers two screens for blacks deeper than midnight and colors that leap off the glass with pinpoint accuracy, while the 120Hz refresh rate transforms scrolling / swiping into something effortless and fluid.

5. Apple AirPods 4 Wireless Earbuds – $129 $89
AirPods 4 sit in your ear with a curved shape that hugs the outside without pushing in, with each bud weighing 0.13oz. The stems have force sensors that respond to a short press to skip tracks or answer calls with a click. The white case is now USB-C only and small enough to fit in your pocket with your keys and wallet.
The H2 processor inside the AirPods handles handoffs between your iPhone, Mac and Watch so a podcast you started on your commute will flow directly to your home speakers without a tap. The bass is punchier than before with a low distortion driver that tightens the rhythm without muddying the vocals and Spatial Audio wraps the performance in a 3D stage that follows your head’s movements for an immersive experience. Battery life is 5 hours of listening time, or 30 hours with the case, so weekend errands and long flights rarely need a charge. The buds and case are IP54 rated, so they can withstand sweat from exercise or a spray of rain, while Siri responds to a simple “Hey” for reminders or to navigate routes hands free. Product page.
4. 25,000 mAh Anker Laptop Power Bank 165W with Retractable Cable – $134.99 $89.99
Anker’s 25,000mAh Laptop Power Bank fits easily in a backpack but has enough juice to power a MacBook through an afternoon of meetings or recharge an iPhone 17 Pro Max in just an hour, all while managing two other devices without breaking a sweat. At 1.31 pounds and 6.18 by 2.13 by 1.93 inches, it strikes a compromise between weight and portability, thanks to a short built-in USB-C cord that also serves as a strap for one-handed grabs.
Three USB-C connections can output up to 100W each, for a total of 165W, allowing you to charge a Samsung Galaxy and a tablet simultaneously without restricting speeds, as well as a single USB-A slot for older earphones or accessories. Recharging the entire device takes roughly 2 hours on a 100W power adapter, with a 30% charge in 20 minutes to get you back in the game quickly, and its 90Wh rating passes airport carry-on limits without a second notice from security. Pass-through charging works easily when plugged in, allowing you to charge devices while the battery recharges, however it requires a 20W input to avoid problems. Product page.
3. DJI Mini 4K Drone – $299 $239

A GPS function locks on quickly for return-to-takeoff locations, and the return-to-home feature activates automatically when the battery runs low or the signal drops. On a full charge, the battery lasts 31 minutes, ideal for casual flights. Product page.

The 6.7-inch Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X screen goes edge to edge under Corning Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2, with 120Hz scrolls that feel silky smooth, HDR10+ colors and 2,600 nits of brightness to cut through midday glare.
Camera wise, it boasts a 200MP main camera and a 12MP ultra wide, while the 12MP front camera keeps video calls sharp and centered as you move about the room. Ultrasonic fingerprint scanning behind the glass wakes it up in an instant, while IP68 water resistance means it can endure submersion, complete with 7 years of Android updates.
Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset for Galaxy with 12GB of RAM, can handidly manage app switching and 4K editing without breaking a sweat.

This desktop computer is battery-free by design and its small size lets it fit under a monitor, freeing up tabletop space for peripherals. Product page.
