The Asus ROG Zephyrus G15 remains one of our favorite gaming laptops, despite its lack of a webcam. This cool and powerful laptop has returned to its lowest price at Best Buy. The G15 is normally available for $1849.99, but Best Buy has currently discounted it to $1,549.99. While Asus has recently updated its 15-inch Zephyrus line to include a webcam and more powerful CPU, the collection of specs still makes last year’s model extremely competitive at this price point. This model of the G15 includes a Ryzen 9 CPU, an RTX 3070 graphics card, a 1TB SSD, and 16GB of RAM. The Verge’s Monica Chin reviewed this laptop for us about a year ago and enjoyed the robust battery life and performance of this laptop.

The Anker Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro earbuds are the company’s latest noise-canceling model. While they normally retail for $169.99, you can currently find them on Amazon for just $129.99.

The Fitbit Sense is an Apple Watch-wannabe that you can get at Amazon and Best Buy for just $200 ($100 off). While The Verge’s review from Brent Rose wasn’t thrilled with the Fitbit Sense, it may be a good choice if you’re looking for a wearable that can measure in-depth fitness metrics like SpO2, breathing rate, skin temperature, and more. This discount makes a more compelling case for the Fitbit Sense.
For Samsung users looking for a similarly priced alternative, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 is currently available for the same price at Amazon ($199.99). This watch offers many of the same features as the Fitbit but with enhanced functionality for Samsung phone users. However, this wearable received a similarly moderate score in our review by Dieter Bohn.
