It’s Friday, which means today we put together the best deals in tech we saw this week. It’s also St. Patrick’s day and we could make a dumb joke about “saving some green” — but we won’t. Instead, we’ll just note that the Apple Watch SE dropped to its lowest price yet and the Beats Fit Pro are getting a steep $55 discount at Woot. Wellbots is also taking $55 off of a pair of earbuds, dropping Google’s Pixel Buds Pro down to $145 when you use the Engadget coupon. And speaking of vouchers, the 2022 iPad Air is $99 off at Amazon when you add click on the extra discount at checkout. Meanwhile, the very excellent (and previously tough to find) Steam Deck got its first discount ever, taking 10 percent off the portable gaming system. Here are the best tech deals from this week that you can still get today.
Apple Watch SE
You can snag Apple’s most affordable smartwatch, the Apple Watch SE, for its lowest price yet. It’s on sale for $219, after a 12 percent discount, which matches the steepest discount we’ve seen since its debut. We gave it a review score of 89, calling it the best smartwatch $250 can buy. There’s no always-on display and it doesn’t have blood oxygen sensors, skin temperature readings or ECG monitoring like the Series 8. The screen isn’t quite as robust either. But for $219 you’ll get a fully featured smartwatch with excellent app integration and plenty of health-tracking features.
