The Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro are Anker’s latest flagship true wireless earphones, and they’re back at their lowest price of $129.99 at Amazon Y Best Buy. One of the best things about this $30 discount is that it extends to all four colors: black, purple, gray, and white. The headphones provide a lot of value, quality sound, and even support nice extras like support for multipoint connections and Sony’s highest-quality codec, LDAC. Active noise cancellation may not be the best, but at $129.99, they’re priced closer to the AirPods base model than more expensive earphones, they offer a more upscale look and come with a case that supports wireless charging. read our review.

The N8 Plus is a mid-range vacuum/mop hybrid, and comes with an auto-empty station and lidar-enabled mapping. It also avoids obstacles, although it is not the most advanced AI-driven intelligence that newer vacuum cleaners are used to prevent pet accidents on the floor. The N8 Plus’s mop doesn’t oscillate, you just drag it to clean the floor, though you get good value for around $288, especially since most robovacs with self-emptying stations cost quite a bit more.

Best of all, you can get this 15-inch laptop with an 11th Gen Intel Core i7 CPU, GeForce RTX 3050 Ti GPU, 512GB SSD, and 8GB RAM. for $799.99 as part of today’s sale at Best Buy.
