SimpliSafe Home Security System (8-Piece)

Street price: $265; deal price: $134

Typically $265, this is a great drop to $134 on an 8-piece version of our runner-up home security system. This kit includes a base station, keypad, motion sensor, panic button, and four entry sensors. Whether you’re looking to implement a new security system or replace a Ring system in the midst of security uncertainty, this deal is a great chance to pick up an all-inclusive system to get started with SimpliSafe.

The runner-up in our guide to the best home security system, Simplisafe offers easy and reliable monitoring. Wirecutter Staff Writer Rachel Cericola wrote, “If you’re a Google Home owner, if you want a more attractive-looking system, or if you just don’t want to put security in the hands of Amazon (Ring’s parent company), SimpliSafe is a flexible, affordable, and easy-to-use live-monitoring security option. It’s one of the best systems we’ve tested, with customizable alarm triggers and consistent monitoring response times. We also found it easy to set up, scalable to small and large homes, and configurable with a variety of accessories, from entry and motion detectors to fire and CO sensors to leak and temperature sensors. SimpliSafe also works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, allowing you to arm and check the system using only voice commands. It doesn’t work with many third-party smart-home devices, though, and it isn’t very useful without a monitoring subscription.”

Marshall Mode In-Ear Headphones

Street price: $50; deal price: $31

Down to $31 from Amazon, this is a great deal on a pair of already very affordable earbuds we like. The budget pick in our earbuds guide, the Marshall Mode In-Ear Headphones offer the best sound for an option under $100. This $19 drop is a great chance to pick up a pair for yourself or as a great-sounding gift; deals on these earbuds are few and far between, so take advantage of it while it lasts.

Usually priced for $50, the Marshall Mode earbuds are the budget pick in our guide to the best earbuds. Wirecutter Senior Staff Writer Lauren Dragan wrote, “If you want great-sounding earbuds under $100, we love the Marshall Mode. These earbuds fit all of our testers well, and they have a mellow, full sound with a mildly but pleasantly boosted low-frequency range. This pair is well-suited to all kinds of music but especially shows off its skill with rock and hip-hop. Although the Mode lacks the precision and sense of space of our top picks, none of the similarly priced competitors we tested were able to best it.”

Jabra Elite Active 65t

Street price: $160; deal price: $110

This drop to $110 in both the blue and red finishes is an all-time low for a new pair of the Jabra Elite Active 65t earbuds. Their non-active counterpart in the same line, the 65t, has fallen in price significantly with the release of the Elite 75t, and that new release is likely driving the downward trend in price for this model too. If you like either color, this deal is a great chance to get our top pick at a price more comparable to our other picks.

The top pick in our guide to the best workout headphones, the Jabra Elite Active 65t are the most comfortable option available. Wirecutter Senior Staff Writer Lauran Dragan wrote, “We love the Jabra Elite Active 65t because this pair has everything we expect in the best workout headphones and then some. The earbuds are comfortable, they stay put during even the most high-impact moves, they’re very sweat-resistant (with an IP56 rating), they have easy-to-use controls, they sound great, and they offer long enough battery life for even marathon exercise sessions. Even better, they sound clear on phone calls, charge quickly, and come with an impressive two-year warranty against sweat and dust.”

Dash Robot

Street price: $145; deal price: $100

The Dash Robot, a robot toy we love for kids interested in STEM, is back down to $100, matching previous deals we’ve seen. While not the lowest price we’ve seen this for this programmable robot, it’s still a solid discount on a pick we’ve seen fluctuate wildly in price over the past few months. Just in time for the holiday season, this deal is good chance to pick up a fun robotic friend.

In our guide to the best learning toys and STEM toys, the Dash Robot is our smaller STEM robot pick. Wirecutter Editor Courtney Schley wrote, “The small, Cyclopean robot (Dash is about six and a half inches high and weighs under two pounds) is Bluetooth-enabled, rechargeable, and rolls agilely on three wheels in response to voice cues or app-based commands from an Android or iOS device. Five included apps let you manipulate, program, design new behaviors, and play music with the robot. Younger kids can use an intuitive app called Path to draw a route for Dash to follow around the room, dropping in pictorial commands for the robot to make sounds, dance, flash lights, and perform other actions. Along the way, kids learn how to account for obstacles and to map their 3D environment onto a 2D drawing.”

Eufy Video Doorbell

Street price: $160; deal price: $108 w/ promo code D2EUFYSD

Use promo code D2EUFYSD to bring this new pick down to $108, a significant drop. This is only the second deal we’ve posted on the Eufy Video Doorbell, and, at a $52 discount, it’s a new low. Already considerably more affordable than our other doorbell camera picks, this drop brings it to only a few dollars more than even our budget pick.

The Eufy Video Doorbell is the new top pick in our guide to the best smart doorbell camera. Wirecutter Editor Jon Chase and Staff Writer Rachel Cericola wrote, “The Eufy Video Doorbell delivers some of the best images we’ve seen from a smart doorbell, despite also being one of the most affordable models we’ve tested. It captures detailed 2K video, and its two-way audio was clear. It’s also the only smart doorbell to capture lengthy video clips, without recording 24/7: As long as motion is detected, it will record for up to five minutes and store the clip internally (versus uploading it to the cloud, like other models). That could be an issue if the power goes out or your Wi-Fi is down—or someone swipes your doorbell—but it frees you from monthly fees and some worries about hacking (and inadvertently draining your monthly data allotment if you have satellite Internet).”

Razer DeathAdder Elite

Street price: $45; deal price: $30

Matching the previous all-time low we’ve posted for this gaming mouse pick, the Razer DeathAdder Elite has dropped from $45 to $30. Deals on the DeathAdder Elite are somewhat common, though drops this low usually only occur during this time of year. If you’re interested in a high quality gaming mouse, this deal brings our top pick within a few dollars of our budget pick.

A long-time pick in our guide to the best wired gaming mouse, the Razer DeathAdder Elite is comfortable for a variety of users and comes with a variety of lighting options. Wirecutter Editor Thorin Klosowski wrote, “The Razer DeathAdder Elite is the best gaming mouse for most people because it’s comfortable for a wide range of hand sizes and grips, has seven easy-to-reach buttons and an accurate sensor, and has a simple, effective design. Razer’s Synapse software is easy to use on both Windows and Mac and it supports all of the customization options you could possibly want. The shape is nearly identical to that of its predecessor, our previous favorite gaming mouse, the DeathAdder Chroma (and the DeathAdder Classic, our pick before that).”

Beats Solo3 Bluetooth Headphones

Street price: $170; deal price: $130

If you prefer the look of sleek black headphones, the Beats Solo3 have dropped to a new low of $130 in the gloss black finish. Past noteworthy deals we’ve seen for these bluetooth headphones have been $20 or more, so all-time low is a great chance to pick up a pair if you’re interested. We expect to see similar deals over Black Friday and Cyber Monday, but we don’t expect to see them drop any lower.

Though not a formal pick in our guide to the best bluetooth headphones, we speak well of the Beats Solo3, making them notable competition. Wirecutter Senior Staff Writer Lauren Dragan wrote, “The W1 chip makes pairing with Apple devices a breeze, and the 40-hour battery life is impressive. The sound was very similar to that of the Solo2, which we also liked, offering nice highs and mids with a slight bass boost. But the Solo3 currently costs too darn much for what you get. At $150, it could be a pick.”

SimpliSafe Home Security System – Essentials Kit

Street price: $260; deal price: $130

As part of a week-long 50% sale from SimpliSafe direct, the Home Security System Essentials Kit is down to a new low of $130. This is an incredible deal, well worth looking into if you’d like to implement a new home security system in your house. Complete with a base station, keypad, three entry sensors, and a motion sensor, this bundle has great value for the price.

SimpliSafe is the runner-up in our guide to the best home security system that we praise for its easy and reliable monitoring. Wirecutter Staff Writer Rachel Cericola wrote, “If you’re a Google Home owner, if you want a more attractive-looking system, or if you just don’t want to put security in the hands of Amazon (Ring’s parent company), SimpliSafe is a flexible, affordable, and easy-to-use live-monitoring security option. It’s one of the best systems we’ve tested, with customizable alarm triggers and consistent monitoring response times. We also found it easy to set up, scalable to small and large homes, and configurable with a variety of accessories, from entry and motion detectors to fire and CO sensors to leak and temperature sensors. SimpliSafe also works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, allowing you to arm and check the system using only voice commands. It doesn’t work with many third-party smart-home devices, though, and it isn’t very useful without a monitoring subscription.”
