After seeing the Nest Hub Max go on sale earlier in the week, Best Buy today is offering only the second chance to save this year on the Google Nest Mini. Courtesy of the retailer, the brand’s latest smart speaker sells for $35.98 shipped. Down from the usual $50 going rate, you’re looking at the second-best price of the year and the lowest since back in January. Right at the start of the year, it sold for $11 less for a limited time, with today’s offer delivering the only other chance to save this year otherwise and the best since. Delivering the most affordable way in the Google smart speaker stable to bring home Assistant, the Nest Mini arrives with a compact, fabric-wrapped design that’s as ideal for living in the family room as it is on the bedside table and really anywhere else in your home. So whether you need to command connected lighting or call up some cooking help in the kitchen, Nest Mini is an essential upgrade for those in Google’s smart home ecosystem. Dive into our hands-on review for a closer look and then head below for more.

Amazon is now offering the Sonnet Echo 11 Thunderbolt 4 Dock for $199.99 shipped. Clocking in at a new all-time low today, this offer is down from the usual $270 going rate in order to beat our previous mention by $20. The $70 in savings mark one of the first chances to save since it launched back in August with a $320 MSRP and then shortly after fell to that more typical price tag we’ve been seeing as of late. Featuring a 10-port design, the Sonnet Echo 11 Thunderbolt 4 Dock comes wrapped in a premium metal enclosure to fit right in with the rest of your Apple setup. On top of the 90W host connection to your machine, there’s also three full Thunderbolt 4 ports around back joined by Gigabit Ethernet and a trio of USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 slots for legacy devices and peripherals. Turning our attention to the front, there’s an SD card reader as well as a USB 2.0 slot and a 3.5mm audio jack – all of which makes this a compelling upgrade to your macOS workstation.

In what has been one of the worst kept secrets of the LEGO Star Wars lineup, today we’re getting a first official look at the upcoming Mandalorian Fang Fighter versus TIE Interceptor set. Hitting store shelves next month as part of the Star Wars Day festivities, set number 76348 will stack up to nearly 1,000 pieces and includes four minifigures.

As the largest LEGO Star Wars set of the summer wave last year, the Justifier ship was a contentious buy for many builders. Seeing one of the more obscure ships from a galaxy far, far away get such a grand treatment in the brick-built space was already exciting enough, but the exclusive minifigures made this a must-have for many. There was just one problem, the $170 MSRP was hardly appealing for even more bigger fans of The Bad Batch, the show where the starfighter is from. Now thanks to Amazon, you can score the best price ever on Cad Bane’s bounty hunter ship. Dropping the LEGO Justifier down to $135.99 shipped, today’s offer lands with 20% in savings attached. It’s only the second notable discount at Amazon so far, and enters as one of the first chances to save period. This is $4 under our previous mention from back in March, and marks a new all-time low.

Anker today is starting off the workweek by launching the latest addition to its stable of MagSafe chargers. The new PowerCore 5K arrives with the usual 7.5W output we’ve come to expect, as well as a 5,000mAh battery and MagSafe charging tech that’s ready for iPhone 14. But where it differs from previous releases is a refreshed footprint that helps Anker make this the most affordable of its MagSafe batteries yet – not to mention, a 30% off launch price cut makes it even more compelling.

Today only, as part of its Gold Box Deals of the Day, Anker’s official Amazon storefront is now discounting an assortment of its latest Soundcore headphones and earbuds. Shipping is free across the board while the savings are available through the end of the day that start from $60. Amongst several different models and colorways, our favorite discount of the batch puts the new Space Q45 ANC Headphones in the spotlight with a drop down to $99.99. You’d more regularly pay $150, with today’s offer arriving at the all-time low for the first time in months. It’s one of the first chances to lock-in this low of a price, with 33% in savings attached. This is also $30 under our previous mention.

Arriving as some of Anker’s latest over-ear headphones, the new Space Q45 enter the Soundcore lineup with a long list of compelling specs that are only made more enticing by the price cut. Active noise cancellation is one of the biggest draws, which I can attest to being one of the biggest selling points. That feature paired with the plushy earcup designs makes for comfortable listening that blocks out ambient audio at home or even on airplanes. Then you’ll find 50-hour playback, adjustable EQ settings from the companion app, and a premium-feeling build that you can read all about in our hands-on review. Head below for more.

The celebration of Disney’s 100th anniversay rages on as today we’re getting a look at two new LEGO creations. Coming later this year and joining all of the other kits that look to get in on the fanfare of the animation studio’s anniversary, there’s a build celebrating iconic Disney Villains to go alongside some iconic sidekick duos. So if you don’t mind some grainy photos, hit the jump and check out the two new LEGO 100th anniversary Disney sets launching this summer.

May the 4th is right around the corner, and today the LEGO Group is giving builders an official look at all the ways to save for Star Wars day. With freebies on certain orders and the usual double VIP points to be had during the first few days of next month, we break down what to expect from the festivities coming soon.

Earlier this year, Anker launched its new AnkerWork M650 wireless microphone kit. Taking on the likes of DJI and Rode, the pair of lavalier microphones is ready to elevate your mobile podcasting setup and iPhoneography shooting rig alike. The only question is, is it worth the $250 price tag?

Amazon is now offering the Wemo Smart Video Doorbell with HomeKit Secure Video for $190.61 shipped. Normally fetching $250, today’s offer is now arriving at a new all-time low. It’s only the second discount of the year at $59 off, while also beating our previous mention by $4. Having just launched about a year ago, this Wemo smart doorbell is one of the first options on the market outfitted with HomeKit Secure Video support, but there’s more to the story than just integration with Apple’s smart home system. It also sports a 4MP camera sensor that is backed by a 178-degree field of view for delivering 1080p feeds into the Home app. The dual-band Wi-Fi connectivity is a nice touch for making sure that it can still get service out on the porch, and the IP55 weather-resistance helps it stand up to the elements. Our launch coverage gives you a better idea of what to expect if you’re not sold, as well.

Just after seeing its new Flexi band made of recycled smartphone cases hit the scene earlier in the week, CASETiFY is now back to debut another new addition to its Apple Watch band collection. As its most premium release so far, the new Stainless Steel 3-Link Band arrives with all of the higher-end looks you’d expect from the metal form factor and a more affordable price tag than the competition.

If you’re in the photography scene at all, there’s no avoiding just how popular the Fujifilm X100V is. And even if you’re not, odds are you’ve at least seen someone on TikTok or Twitter sharing gorgeous photos all across social media. But if you’ve tried to get your hands on one, all of that popularity has made it nearly impossible to bring those signature vibes to your photography kit.

Last fall, Fujifilm released the new X-T5, a mirrorless camera that not only delivers on those signature vintage shooting capabilities and old-school form factor but packs even more professional features. As far more than just the next best thing to its famous brethren, I’ve been putting the new camera through its paces over the past few months.

Right before LEGO’s new vignettes from Return of the Jedi are slated to hit store shelves next month, Amazon is now marking down two of the original releases to the Diorama series. First up, we have the LEGO Star Wars Dagobah Jedi Training Diorama at $58.49 shipped. Down from the usual $90 going rate, this is matching the all-time low for only the second time at 35% off. It’s below our previous $70 mention and marking a rare chance to lock-in this set for far below MSRP.

Arriving as the largest of the first batch of LEGO Star Wars 18+ dioramas from last spring, the Dagobah Jedi Training set comes inspired by The Empire Strikes Back and clocks in with 1,000 pieces. Setting the pace for the collection, the display-worthy build depicts Luke Skywalker’s time spent on the swamp planet of Dagobah training under Yoda. Much of the build is delivering on that swampy local, with Yoda’s hut sitting in front of a large tree and next to one of the wings from Luke’s submerged X-Wing. As far as minifigures go, you’re looking at Luke himself as well as Yoda. R2-D2 is making a refreshed appearance in the set and comes covered in mud after almost being eaten by a mysterious creature in the depths of the swamp. Head below for more.

Today, we’re getting a first look at four new LEGO sets from the upcoming expansion of the Sonic the Hedgehog theme. Landing later this summer, the new sets come packed with iconic characters from the SEGA video game, including both friend and foe alike thanks to all-new minifigures for Tails, Amy, and even Dr. Robotnik.

CASETiFY today is expanding its stable of Apple Watch accessories by launching its latest strap. The new Flexi Apple Watch Band arrives with the usual CASETiFY knack for flair, coming in a colorful assortment of styles and designs to complement its recycled build. Compatible with Apple Watch Ultra, Series 8, and previous wearables, the new band also comes in hundreds of customizable styles.

New York-based artist Nik Bentel has been known to bring a level of whimsy to his work that I’ve personally been obsessed with for ages now. As if past work like his Shipping Box Bag didn’t speak to me enough, the artist’s latest piece is looking to capture some iconic macOS imagery. The new Untitled Folder Wallet just launched with some signature Apple inspiration in tow, and after spending the past few days with it in my bag, I can’t stop gushing about why you need to get one for yourself.

Amazon is now offering the 2-node Google Nest WiFi Router System for $123 shipped. Down from the $299 MSRP it has been selling for all year, today’s offer has Amazon looking to clear out the now previous-generation Wi-Fi package in the Google stable. It’s the first chance to save in 2023 period, and clocks in at $2 under the holiday pricing from last December. Giving your home Wi-Fi a nice refresh for the spring, this 802.11ac package provides 4,400-square feet of coverage thanks to the dual-node system. It can handle upwards of 2.2Gb/s of overall throughput from as many as 200 smartphones, laptops, smart home accessories, and any other clients. And on top of supporting an entire family’s worth of gadgets, each of the routers also doubles as an Assistant speaker for calling up the digital Google helper anywhere in the house.

LEGO today is expanding its lineup of Technic supercars with the debut of its latest brick-built vehicle. Celebrating 100 years of the famous Le Mans race, the new LEGO Technic Peugeot 9X8 hits the scene with nearly 1,800 bricks, glow-in-the-dark headlights, and one of the more unique designs we’ve seen from a LEGO racer as of late. Launching on May 1 with a $200 price tag, we’re breaking down the latest Technic model below.

Earlier this year, Twelve South refreshed one of its more popular desktop accessories with the debut of the new HiRise Pro. Packing a few new tricks over its predecessor alongside the usual Twelve South quality, I’ve been putting the stand to the test over the past couple of months to see if its $100 price tag is worth a spot in your desktop MacBook setup.

Govee just expanded its stable with a new AI sync box to make your smart lights dance and react with your battlestation, and now the brand is discounting one of its latest smart lighting tie-ins. The company’s neon rope lights have long been a personal favorite of mine, with a similar love shared amongst 9to5Toys readers. Now Govee is bringing that same retro look to the gaming side of its portfolio with the new Gaming Neon Rope Lights that are on sale for $79.99 shipped after the on-page coupon has been clipped at Amazon. Dropping from the $90 MSRP it just launched with last week, today’s offer arrives with $10 in savings and a new all-time low. Designed to look like a neon light, this unique smart lightstrip measures 10 feet long and features a flexible design that can be used to wrap around your desk, monitor, PC, or even make custom artwork up on your wall. It features 42 segments of addressable RGB lighting, so you can set gradients, illumination effects, and achieve even more immersive lighting. The whole thing pairs with Alexa and Google Assistant over Wi-Fi for voice control, while the companion app handles scheduling and automations. Head below for more.

Through the end of the day, Amazon is now offering the Yale Assure Lock 2 HomeKit Deadbolt for $129.99 shipped. Dropping the Bluetooth configuration with a push button keypad down from the usual $160 going rate, today’s $30 discount is delivering one of the very first chances to save and a new all-time low. It’s available in two styles, both of which just launched late last fall. Outfitting the front door with smart home control, the Yale Assure Lock 2 features quite a few different ways to unlock. There’s notably a push button design that offers a manual way to punch in codes, which is joined by all of the smart features. HomeKit and Siri support are two easy headliners thanks to onboard Bluetooth, but there’s also compatibility with the companion smartphone app, too. All of which let you ditch traditional keys from the equation. Different from the original model, there’s now a more compact module that installs on the back of your door and is 30% smaller than before. You can learn more in our launch coverage, too.

Anker’s official Amazon storefront today is rolling out the red carpet on some discounts across its MagGo MagSafe charging lineup. Including at-home offerings for the desk and nightstand to portable power banks for taking some juice on the road, everything ships free for Prime members or in orders over $25. A particular standout is delivering the best price of the year on Anker’s MagGo 2-in-1 MagSafe Battery Pack Charging Station at $95.99. Available in all three colorways, this hybrid accessory typically sells for $120 and is now on sale the best price of the year. Those $24 in savings undercut our previous $103 mention by $7 in order to land at one of the best prices ever. Delivering a unique 2-in-1 design, this MagSafe-compatible 7.5W charging station also doubles as a power bank. The main MagSafe mount can slide out to deliver 5,000mAh of on-the-go power to your iPhone 14, while a secondary 5W pad below is always available at home for refueling AirPods and the like. Our hands-on review explores all of the perks of that convertible design, too. Head below for more.

Packed with some classic 1980s art styles and unique LEGO techniques that really push the envelop on what’s possible from the blocky medium, the set will be arriving in May.

Amazon now offers the Philips Hue White Ambiance Smart Button Starter Kit for $58.22 shipped. Down from the usual $100 going rate, this is the best discount we’ve ever seen. It clocks in at 42% off, as well as at $15 under our previous mention from back in February. This is only the second discount of the year, too. Including everything you need to kickstart a smart home lighting setup, this bundle gives you three dimmable LED bulbs that’ll work with the likes of HomeKit, Alexa, or Assistant right out of the box thanks to the included Hue bridge. Then a Hue Smart Button rounds out the package for family members who aren’t ready to fully adopt voice-enabled lights. Even though you’re not getting the brand’s latest lights, this is as good of a value as you’ll find for diving into the most robust smart home lighting ecosystem on the market. Head below for more.

After seeing the newer M2 models go on sale to start the week, Woot is now clearing out previous-generation M1 Pro MacBook Pros. Headlined by the 16-inch model which now sells for $1,599.99, shipping is free for Prime members. A $6 delivery fee applies otherwise. Down from its original $2,499 going rate, this $900 discount is by far the best sale to date. It clocks in at $300 below our previous mention and is the lowest price yet. Not to mention, it’s $750 under the newer M2 Pro model.

Apple’s now previous-generation flagship MacBook Pro may not be the most recent release, but still arrives with much of the same refreshed form-factor as the newer models. M1 Pro chip starts the improved form-factor and powers the experience that comes centered around a 16-inch Liquid Retina XDR Display backed by ProMotion, 120Hz refresh rates, and 1600 nits of peak brightness. Packed into that new chassis is up to 21-hour battery, as well as a new array of I/O like the return of MagSafe charging, HDMI, three Thunderbolt ports, and more. So if you’re not sold on the performance gains of the new M2 iteration, today’s price cut is easily worth considering. See why it was previously our Apple product of the year over at 9to5Mac. Head below for more.

• Bundle Samsung’s just-released Galaxy A54 5G smartphone with a $50 gift card for $450

Last month, Samsung revealed its latest budget-friendly smartphone with the new Galaxy A54 5G. Delivering more mid-range specs than the brand’s usual flagship handsets, this new release arrives with a fitting $449.99 price tag. Amazon is now making that MSRP even better by throwing in a $50 gift card for a limited time. That gives you $50 off your next purchase at the retailer, be it for accessories to outfit your new handset or just on other essentials, while delivering the first chance to save in any capacity on this new release.

Samsung’s Galaxy A54 5G smartphone takes on a more wallet-friendly form-factor that comes centered around a 6.4-inch 120Hz display. It departs from the usual reliance on Snapdragon silicon with the deployment of the Exynos 1380 chip that’s backed by 128GB of onboard storage and 8GB of RAM. Though if you do need some extra room, there’s support for up to 1TB of expansions via microSD card slot, which rounds out the package alongside a 5,000mAh battery and 50 MP triple camera assembly. We also just took a hands-on look at the device when it launched, checking out what the Galaxy A54 brings to the table.

Today, Anker is showcasing the latest addition to its lineup of Bluetooth speakers. Beyond just a refreshed and more premium design than previous installations in the stable, the new Anker Soundcore Motion X600 also makes its debut as the company’s first hi-fi speaker.

Amazon is now offering the Philips Hue Outdoor Motion Sensor for $42.75 shipped. As the first markdown of 2023, you’re now looking at a $7 discount from the usual $50 going rate. We last saw it go on sale back in September where it did hit $35, but this is the first chance to save in several months. If you’ve already been bringing the smart home technology to your patio for adding a bit more flare to outdoor spaces for spring hangouts, this Philips Hue motion sensor is a great solution for tying everything together. On top of being able to just automate lights and scenes based on when motion is detected, the waterproof design also packs an ambient light sensor that can be used to automatically turn on outdoor string lights, porch lamps, and more as the sun sets.  Pairing with the rest of your setup over Zigbee and the required Hue bridge, it is a great option for ditching imprecision geofencing in favor of hyper-local tracking. You can get all of the details on why we called it “an ideal smart home companion” in our hands-on review.

Amazon is now discounting the a pair of black Apple Mac accessories to start off the work week and give your setup a spring refresh. After being refreshed back in March of last year, we’re now seeing some rare price cuts go live on two of the updated styles of Apple’s popular Magic peripherals that include free shipping across the board. Leading the way, Apple’s new Black Magic Keyboard with Touch ID is a highlight at $173. While you’d more regularly pay $199, today’s offer arrives to match the all-time low at $26 off. It’s matching that best price ever for only the second time, and undercuts the previous discount by an extra $7. Apple’s Magic Keyboard elevates your desktop workstation with a metal build that complements the rest of your devices. This model in particular sports black keys to pair with the brand’s latest scissor key switches underneath. Perfect for paring with Mac or iPad, there’s Lightning port on the front to top off the rechargeable battery that rounds out the package alongside a built-in Touch ID sensor. Head below for more.

Anker’s official Amazon storefront today is now discounting a pair of its MagSafe power banks headlined by the new MagGo Slim Battery Pack at $34.99 shipped in two styles. Normally fetching $60, this is one of the first times we’ve seen it drop to the all-time low. It’s 42% off, and the best we’ve seen since back in January. Packing 5,000mAh of juice into a refreshed design, the newest Anker MagSafe Power Bank is more compact than before in order to live up to its slim naming scheme.

Anker is now offering its new Soundcore Space Q45 ANC Headphones for $129.99 shipped. Also available at Amazon.

Arriving as some of Anker’s latest over-ear headphones, the new Space Q45 enter the Soundcore lineup with a long list of compelling specs that are only made more enticing by the price cut. Active noise cancellation is one of the biggest draws, which I can attest to being one of the biggest selling points.

Today we’re tracking discounts across nearly the entire LEGO Avatar theme. After the company first brought James Cameron’s sci-fi world of Pandora into the blocky medium last summer, we’ve seen a handful of price cuts go live over the past few months. Now both the original wave and the sequel sets based on Way of the Water are going on sale. Everything starts with arguably the most exciting LEGO Avatar set, which has the Toruk Makto and Tree of Souls kit marked down to $99.99 shipped at Best Buy. You’d more regularly pay $150, with today’s offer amounting to 33% in savings. This is the very first discount since it launched in August of last year, too.

As something of the wave’s flagship set, this creation stacks up to 1,212 pieces and assembles two different main builds. There’s firstly the Toruk dragon, which stands over 9 inches tall and with an over 15-inch wingspan as well as a vibrant red and orange color scheme. Though the even more eye-catching part of the build has to be the Tree of Souls, which features some translucent bricks to really elevate the rest of the Pandoran scenery included in the kit. Before we dive into the other LEGO Avatar kits on sale today, be sure to learn more about the wave in our launch coverage.
