Pixel 10 phones and Switch 2 games round out this week’s best deals 

If you’re taking it easy during the slow, in-between week between Christmas and New Year’s, now’s a good time to catch up on deals you might’ve missed. Many of our favorite discounts from the past week are still hanging around, making this an especially convenient moment to shop. Whether you’re eyeing a new phone, gearing up for travel, or just looking to treat yourself before the year wraps up, we’re seeing notable price drops on Google’s Pixel 10 lineup, AirTags, and a wide selection of Nintendo Switch games, along with a handful of other Verge-approved picks worth grabbing now. Here are the best deals worth checking out before the year comes to a close.

Google’s Pixel 10 phones are among the best Android phones  you can buy, and this week they’ve dropped to some of their lowest prices yet. Amazon is selling the Pixel 10 for $499 ($300 off) with promo code PIXEL10, marking its second-best price to date. If you want better  cameras, Amazon is also offering record-low prices on the Pixel 10 Pro and 6.8-inch Pixel 10 Pro XL, down to $649 ($350 off) and $799 ($400 off), respectively, with the same code.

All three phones support Qi2 wireless charging with built-in magnets and run on Google’s snappy Tensor G5 chip. In her review, The Verge’s Allison Johnson called the Pixel 10 a great, basic Android phone with meaningful upgrades, including a bright 6.3-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 3,000 nits of peak brightness. It also adds a dedicated telephoto lens — a first for a non-Pro Pixel — which makes a noticeable difference for portraits.

If you’re aiming for great (not just good) photos, though, the 6.3-inch Pixel 10 Pro or 6.8-inch Pro XL are better picks. Both offer improved main and 48-megapixel ultrawide cameras, and additional AI-powered features like Pro Res Zoom and an upgraded portrait mode. They also come with extra memory for smoother multitasking along with sharper displays.

Anker’s Laptop Power Bank is once again on sale at Amazon and Walmart for $87.99 ($47 off), which matches the record-low price we last saw a month ago. A favorite among Verge staffers, the 25,000mAh / 90Wh power bank features a retractable USB-C cable along with a second built-in USB-C cable that doubles as a handle for easier portability. You also get a handy LCD screen that shows remaining battery life, total power output, and temperature at a glance. It includes a USB-A port and an extra USB-C port as well, letting you charge a MacBook Pro and up to three other devices at the same time. Power output tops out at 165W when charging two devices, or up to 130W with more plugged in — and since it’s carry-on compliant, you can bring the power bank along on flights.

If you’re looking to stock up on Nintendo Switch games, now’s a great time to do it. Nintendo is currently taking up to 50 percent off some of its best-known titles. That includes a number of   first-party Nintendo games like Super Mario Odyssey ($39.99 down from $59.99), along with Princess Peach: Showtime ($41.99 down from $59.99) and The Legend of Zelda, Echoes of Wisdom (also $41.99 down from $59.99).

The deals aren’t limited to Nintendo’s own catalog, either. A number of well-known third-party games are included as well, from popular releases like Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition ($39.99 down from $69.99)  to game of the year contenders such as Hades 2 ($22.49, down from $29.99) and Hollow Knight: Silksong ($15.99, down from $19.99). Just mark your calendar — most of these deals run through January 4th.

A few more deals we’re digging:

• Right now, you can buy a single AirTag for $19 ($10 off) at Amazon, which is about $1 shy of its best price to date. We strongly recommend Apple’s Bluetooth tracker for iPhone owners, largely because it taps into Apple’s wide Find My network for reliable out-of-range tracking, with built-in UWB delivering an impressive level of precision. You can also share an AirTag’s location with up to five people or, in some cases, participating airlines. Read our review.
• The Twelve South AirFly Pro 2 Bluetooth transmitter / receiver is on sale for $49.99 ($10 off) at Amazon and Best Buy, which is its second-best price to date. The adapter adds Bluetooth support to any device with a 3.5mm headphone jack, whether you’re listening to in-flight entertainment or using older gym equipment and cars that lack built-in Bluetooth. You can even connect up to two sets of headphones or earbuds at once, making it a great option for watching a movie or listening to a playlist with a travel companion.
• If you missed out on Amazon’s Echo device sale, the retailer recently launched a new winter sale that basically is a continuation of its holiday sale.  For example, you can still pick up the Amazon Echo Spot for $44.99 ($35 off) at Amazon and Best Buy. That matches the lowest price we’ve seen so far on the  bedside smart speaker and alarm clock, which comes with a small display for checking things like the weather at a glance. Read our review.
