Whether you're shopping for a power bank, a new pair of headphones, or some other gadget, I've rounded up the best Memorial Day deals for your perusal. We'll update this article again over the weekend.

Red light therapy for hair growth: Higher Dose Red Light Hat for
The best budget botvac and mop: Eufy C28 Robot Vacuum and Mop for
The Sony WH-1000XM5 have a very frustrating name, but they're the predecessor to our favorite wireless headphones, and they're still an excellent pick if you don't want to shell out for the new WH-1000XM6. They go on sale frequently, but rarely drop this low in price, which comes within $5 of their all-time low. If you're in the market for over-ear headphones, they're hard to beat. They're comfortable, portable, lightweight, and stylish, and they'll make your music sound great no matter what you like to listen to.
Our favorite Bluetooth speaker is stylish, portable, and packs surprisingly good sound for its size. Most colors are on sale this Memorial Day. Grab one in time for your next beach day or backyard cookout.
I did not even know they made separate Bluetooth speakers for bikes, but this is the best one, according to former WIRED reviewer Parker Hall. At less than $50, I am probably going to buy this as an end-of-school gift for my teen son. —Kat Merck
We haven't seen our favorite laptop sell for less, though it has been on sale for this price for a few weeks. It's powerful, has a great battery life, and has a sleek whisper-quiet design.
These stunning earbuds fit securely, making them especially good for workouts. They play well with i OS and Android devices. They do go on sale for this price frequently, though.
WIRED reviewer Simon Hill ranks this as the best-looking power bank due to its ’90s throwback clear design. It reminds me of a cyberpunk Toblerone bar, but Simon reports that it packs some legitimate power with a maximum output of 170 watts, a 24,000-m Ah capacity, and an IP66 rating water-resistance rating. It supports Power Delivery 3.1, Quick Charge 4.0, and PPS and can fast-charge three devices simultaneously. —Kat Merck
Our favorite budget walking pad sells for this price frequently, but it's a solid price to pay for what you get. Especially since our previous shared walking pad deal expired!
The best portable jump starter regularly jumps between
This fantastic travel adapter is always affordable, but it doesn't sell for less than it is right now. It's ultracompact, has a good mix of ports, and will cover you in about 200 countries.
I use our top gaming headset every day. It's comfortable and lightweight, the battery lasts for days, and I can always hear everything clearly. (My teammates can hear me, too.) Read our review.
Higher Dose Red Light Hat for 90 off)—Use Code MDW2026
Make sure you use the coupon code MDW2026 to get this excellent price for our favorite red light therapy hair cap. The inside is lined with 120 LED bulbs which treat your hair and scalp with red light therapy. Reviewer Nena Farrell's hairstylist noted healthier regrowth, thicker roots, and a happier scalp over the time Nena used the device. It goes on sale for holidays, but not always this low. Read our full review of the Higher Dose Red Light Hat.
The best open earbuds we've tried have a comfortable, lightweight, and stable fit, plus convenient touch controls. Read our review.
The Anker Liberty 4 NC are great affordable alternatives to Air Pods. They've been a tiny bit cheaper before, but this deal is still worth shopping.
We think the Anker Nano 45W charger is worth its price, but not all phones can take advantage of it. If you're constantly looking for a USB-C wall charger, this option for $13 is a smart buy. The prongs fold up!
This rugged power bank is perfect for camping. It has a frankly gargantuan 90,000-m Ah capacity, a built-in lantern, and more ports than is reasonable.
Eufy C28 Robot Vacuum and Mop for 300 off)
This is the best outdoor security camera for smart homes. It has rich, clear video, a built-in siren and spotlight, onboard AI, and more. It plays well with any smart home platform.
This has sold for less during Black Friday and Cyber Monday, but the deal is still solid if you're in the market. We think this outdoor security camera offers excellent value even at full price.
This pool-cleaning robot can clean everything but the surface of your pool, where it'll return once it's done scrubbing the floors, walls, and waterline. Read our review.
Our second-favorite video doorbell has crisp video, a wide field of view, solid battery life, and smart home support. Some features are locked behind a subscription that starts at $8 per month.
