Samsung’s inexpensive Galaxy Buds FE are even more affordable at over 50 percent off

Samsung’s latest Unpacked event came and went with no major announcements related to the company’s Galaxy Buds lineup. However, if you don’t want to wait for what’s next, you can currently save on the Samsung Galaxy Buds FE, which are down to $46.99 ($53 off) at Woot. That’s their best price yet and a deal that will run until September 2nd or while supplies last.

Samsung Galaxy Buds FE

Where to Buy:

• $99.99 $46.99 at Woot

Despite being nearly two years old, the Buds FE remain a solid pair of wireless earbuds. They offer good sound and impressive noise cancellation for the price, but it’s the fit that really stands out. Unlike the pricier Galaxy Buds 3 and Buds 3 Pro, the Buds FE feature a wing tip design that provides a more comfortable, secure fit. Meanwhile, a flattened touchpad area makes pausing, playing, and skipping tracks more foolproof.

The Buds FE miss out on more advanced features, including a conversation mode and proper multipoint Bluetooth support. They also lack wireless charging and carry a meager IPX2 rating for water resistance, which means they could get damaged if dropped into a pool of water. That being said, a transparency mode ensures you stay aware of your surroundings by letting ambient noise in, and battery life is solid enough to last a full day.

• The second-gen Backbone One with USB-C is down to $69.99 ($30 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Backbone’s storefront, matching the largest discount we’ve seen this year. The controller is one of our favorites for gaming on the go, especially when playing titles like Resident Evil 2. It boasts a compact design complete with analog sticks, a D-pad, and a 3.5mm headphone jack to connect wired headphones. Meanwhile, its USB-C connector means it can work with both Android smartphones and the iPhone 15 or newer.

• The Dyson Zone are currently down to $199 ($500 off) at Woot through the end of the day, the lowest price we’ve seen on the noise canceling headphones. What makes them unique — aside from their retro-future look — is the Zone come with an air purifier you wear over your mouth. The magnetic visor does a decent job filtering pollutants, giving you clean air wherever you may be. They also deliver top-notch noise cancellation — better than the AirPods Max — and are comfortable despite being relatively heavy at 1.3 pounds. Read our review.
• The starting price of the Switch 2 Pro Controller was recently raised to $89.99 following Nintendo’s sweeping price hikes. However, you can still get it for $74.99 ($15 off) at Costco if you have a membership. The controller features two extra programmable buttons embedded into its grips, a dedicated GameChat button, and a 3.5mm headphone jack that can output game audio to wired headphones. While it’s a nice upgrade over the original Switch Pro Controller, it still includes drift-prone potentiometer joysticks instead of the more durable Hall effect or TMR joysticks. Read our review.
