The best Presidents’ Day tech on sale at Amazon 2023

Presidents’ Day is fast approaching and it’s a great time to shop, at least judging by the current deals at Amazon, Walmart and elsewhere. If you are looking for new technologies in the market, you should take a look at the offers currently available. Below I’ve rounded up my top picks, all of which are discounted and in stock now. However, this can change at short notice. So if you see something interesting, I recommend grabbing it.

A quick note: some Amazon listings require an Amazon Prime subscription. Not a member yet? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day Prime trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders $25 or more.)

EarFun Air Pro 2 wireless earbuds

$55$84

A direct rival to the AirPods Pro, the Air Pro 2 offers active noise cancellation (ANC), transparency mode, in-ear detection, touch controls, and a body that supports both USB-C and Qi wireless charging. I found the fit to be snug and comfortable, thanks in no small part to the six pairs of silicone tips included in the box. At $80 these would be easy to recommend; at $55 (with the coupon on the side) they’re a bargain.
