These 15 Amazon Spring Sale Tech Deals Are Actually Good….
After a relatively quiet few months, Amazon is bringing back another of its famously invented shopping holidays. The Amazon Spring Sale is on its third year, and it’ll be arriving again on March 25. Amazon says the sale will run through March 31 and, last year’s event, customers are promised thousands of deals across various daily themed categories.
Of course, as we’ve seen in the past with Prime Day, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday, the true discounts on good products will ly be buried among junk deals on shoddy wares. The WIRED Reviews team tests gear all year long, and we’ll be recommending fact-checked discounts on the products we actively recommend to our friends, family, and readers. We’ve highlighted early deals below, and we’ll be updating this story with more when the event officially arrives.
WIRED Featured Deals:

Sonos Roam 2 for $139 ($40 off)

Roam 2

Sonos
The Sonos Roam 2 is the best smart speaker on the market for most people. It’s portable but has impressive sound despite its small form factor. Bluetooth pairing is fast and simple, and it has IP67 dust and water resistance. The battery has up to 10 hours of listening time. It can also connect to your Sonos home system when you aren’t taking it on the go. The Roam 2 basically never sells for less than this.

This tiny espresso machine makes a mean shot, and it even has a built-in steam wand for frothing milk. It’s our top budget pick.

This solid little soundbar could use a refresh, but it’s reliable and might be the perfect fit if you’re working within a cramped space. The deal matches previous lows.

Pixel Watch 4
Amazon (45 mm)
Best Buy (41 mm)
Amazon (41 mm)
Google Store (41 mm)
The Google Pixel Watch 4 is the best smartwatch for Android, with a gorgeous domed design, reliable performance, and a legible display. Health and fitness metrics are tracked accurately, from heart rate and blood oxygen to sleep, menstrual cycles, skin temperature, and more. Charging is fast, the battery lasts for about a day and a half, and the watch is repairable. We do suggest picking up a different strap, since the included option is ugly. This deal price beats the previous low we’ve tracked by 10 bucks.
Pixel Buds Pro 2
Amazon
Best Buy
Our favorite Android earbuds are tiny, comfortable, and have excellent sound. This price matches the best we’ve seen.

This robot vacuum doesn’t have a dust bag, replacing it with a canister you’d find on a typical vacuum cleaner. It rarely goes on sale.
