Our top pick: Apple iPad Mini (A17 Pro)
Opens in a new window
The latest iPad Mini hit shelves in October 2024 with a handful of welcome — yet predictable — upgrades: a new A17 Pro chip, more starting storage (128GB), an increase in RAM, and compatibility with Apple Intelligence features. It’s not going to blow your mind or anything, but it’s still pretty great. As Mashable’s Stan Schroeder put it in his review, “If you’re new to the iPad, and you want the most compact one around (or any compact tablet), the new iPad mini 7 is the best choice.” It’s regularly $499 for the base model, but as of Jan. 13, it’s down to only $399. That’s 20% in savings and its lowest price on record.

Amazon Fire 7 tablet

The Fire 7 tablet certainly isn’t the most flashy tablet around. As Senior Shopping Reporter Haley Henschel put it in her review, it’s a “deeply average tablet.” But its ultra-low price point, expandable memory, and ultra-portable build make it a solid pick for travel or if you’re looking for a tablet for your teen. It’s usually $79.99, but as of Jan. 13, it’s on sale for only $44.99 — its best price ever.

AeroGarden Harvest Elite
Opens in a new window
The AeroGarden Harvest Elite lets you grow your own herbs and veggies from your kitchen counter. If you’re curious about gardening or homesteading, it’s a great place to start. It’s just 10.5 inches wide and 17.4 inches tall (including the adjustable light height), so it doesn’t demand a ton of counter space. However, it has enough room to grow up to six different plants using its hydroponic system. No need to buy soil or nutrients; it comes with liquid plant food and otherwise just requires water. Regularly priced at $119.99, you can save 50% as of Jan. 13 and grab it for only $60 at Amazon.
Amazon Echo Show 5
Opens in a new window
The third-generation Echo Show 5 features an upgraded speaker system with double the bass of the previous generation and clearer sound for music, audiobooks, podcasts, and whatever else you like listening to. It also includes an AZ2 Neural Edge processor and a reengineered microphone array. The display is on the small side at just 5.5 inches, but that’s why we like it for a nightstand or desktop. Slash 22% off at Amazon as of Jan. 13 and pick it up for only $69.99.

Garmin Instinct
Opens in a new window
“The Instinct is ideal for serious navigators, ultra-athletes, and solo trekkers who spend a lot of time outside and in rugged conditions,” Mashable’s review states of the Garmin Instinct smartwatch. It’s not your average fitness tracker; this thing goes above and beyond when it comes to sports tracking, navigation, and health monitoring. There’s four different profiles alone for just running (classic, indoor track, trail, and treadmill). It’s hefty, so if you have smaller wrists, it’s maybe not the best pick. But otherwise, it’s got extremely good battery life, is strong in the navigation and safety department, and can withstand pretty much whatever you throw at it. And as of Jan. 13, it’s down to just $179.99 at Amazon, which is 28% cheaper than usual.
