Anker
What's the deal? Take up to 50% off Anker accessories
Anker kicked off its pre-Black Friday sale this week, with up to 50 percent off select charging accessories. This includes low prices on USB-C chargers and portable batteries, some of which we've collected below. You'll also find some of the accessories are being matched on Amazon, and note that many of these deals will expire this Sunday.
Sonos introduced a rare discount on its first generation Move speaker this week, available for $299.00, down from $399.00. This version of the Sonos Move supports AirPlay 2, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, an 11 hour battery life, voice and touch controls, and has IP56 water resistance. It's available in Lunar White and Shadow Black at this 25 percent discount.
Verizon has discounts on both models of the AirPods 3, priced at $149.99 for the Lightning model and $159.00 for the MagSafe model. These discounts are overall second-best prices on the AirPods 3, but we haven't tracked all-time low deals in months, so they're still good deals for anyone looking to purchase the AirPods 3 soon.
Apple's 10th generation iPad hit $399.00 this week on Amazon in every color, and they're all still on sale today. This is $50 in savings and a solid second-best discount on the tablet.
