Simply put, 8GB of RAM is just not enough for a MacBook. Typically, boosting the RAM to 16GB would cost you an extra $200, but since Apple decided to make 16GB the new standard, you can get an upgraded model for the same price. And if you want to save even more, opt for the slightly older M2 MacBook Air from 2022, which is on sale for just $749 instead of $999. That’s the lowest price to date for the now-standard 16GB base model with 256GB of storage. Sure, it’s not the latest and greatest MacBook on the market, but it’s still a very solid laptop that Tech Reporter Alex Perry gave the Mashable Choice Award badge of honor. He praised its zippy M2 processor, rock-solid battery life, slim profile, and more than satisfying keyboard design.

If you’re looking for a new tablet and like the color purple, the M2 iPad Air with 512GB of storage is down to a record-low $899 at Amazon. That’s $200 or 18% in savings. Our favorite iPad for most people, the 2024 iPad Air offers powerful performance that can keep up with the big dogs — including some of our favorite laptops — and a battery life that’s even better in real life than on paper. As Mashable’s Kim Gedeon noted in her review, “The M2 chip brings sweet energy efficiency and a performance uptick.”

A direct replacement for the Sony WH-CH710N headphones — which our friends at PCMag (also owned by Ziff Davis) said “offer solid audio performance and active noise cancellation for a relatively affordable price” — the WH-C720N are on sale for just $79.99 at Amazon. That’s 47% in savings and a record-low for this model. The new design is more inspired by the much more expensive WH-1000XM5s (which we love). They add some sound and noise-cancelling upgrades compared to their predecessor, boosting sensitivity in the drivers and increasing the dynamic range, yet keep the impressive 35-hour battery life (with ANC). They’re not the fanciest noise-cancelling headphones on the market, but they’re stylish, reliable, and budget-friendly.
