Our top pick
Check out our full review of the Galaxy Watch 6.
We saw the Galaxy Watch 6 drop to a record-low during Prime Day and over a week later, it's still hanging out around that price. With the arrival of the Galaxy Watch 7 and Ultra over the summer, it's no surprise that the older generation (which is only a year old, BTW) is basically sitting at a permanent discount. The 40mm version with Bluetooth is a total steal at just $169.99, which is 43% off its full retail price. Though it's no longer the latest and greatest Galaxy Watch, the sixth generation is still a very good smartwatch. It includes a nuanced breakdown of your sleep habits, personalized heart rate zones, irregular heart rate notifications, a large always-on display, and a large suite of fitness and health features. Mashable's Alex Perry called it "the king of the Android smartwatch mountain" when it came out last year.
Check out our full review of the Samsung Galaxy Ring.
We were really hoping for some deals on the Galaxy Ring (which we love) during the Prime Big Deal Days event, but only saw one very slight discount on one random size. A week later, however, we're seeing some bigger savings (up to $120 off). There's just one catch: the discounts are on select sizes and only on the gold model. If you wear a size 7, you can grab the gold Galaxy Ring for only $279.99 with an on-page coupon, while size 8 wearers will have to pay $327.99 (still a great deal, but not 30% great). Regardless, if your size is on sale, we highly recommend snatching it up. Our reviewer Kim Gedeon gave it a near-perfect rating and claimed it's "so good, it has made me consider the unthinkable: dropping my beloved Apple Watch Series 9 for the Korea-based tech giant's new wearable."
Instead of grabbing a space heater with a single function, opt for the Dyson Hot + Cool, which can keep your home comfortable no matter the season. Its bladeless design can keep you cool in summer and warm in winter. Thanks to Jet Focus control, you can also choose between a personal mode (Focused) or whole-room mode (Diffused) for even more versatility. Did we mention it also looks good in practically any space? As of Oct. 16, you can pick one up for $314.99 at Amazon instead of the usual $469.99. That's a savings of 33% and just $15 more than its all-time low from Prime Day.
With the wacky weather patterns as of late, you might be better off testing out your green thumb indoors with an AeroGarden. The Harvest 2.0, the second-generation of the OG planter, is down to just $52.49 at Amazon as of Oct. 16, making it 42% more affordable for curious gardeners. It sits at only 10.6 inches wide and 16.4 inches tall (including the adjustable light height), so it won't take up a ton of space in your home. Yet, it has enough space to grow six different plants using its hydroponic system. No soil is needed — just water and liquid plant food (included) — so it's less messy than other growing systems. The Harvest 2.0 features a one-button control nutrient reminder and a detachable 15W grow light.
With awesome color performance and key gaming features, including AMD FreeSync Premium, low input lag, and a 120Hz panel, the 50-inch Vizio MQX QLED TV makes for a pretty solid budget-friendly gaming TV. Our friends at PCMag (also owned by Mashable publisher Ziff Davis) gave it an "excellent" rating in their review, which states, "The 50-inch Vizio M-Series Quantum X TV offers an incredibly wide color range and great gaming features for a reasonable price." Its contrast and brightness could be better, but for just $427 on sale, it's hard to complain. Save 32% as of Oct. 16 at Amazon.
