The Google Pixel 10a is our favorite Android phone overall, in part because it’s cheap. The low price comes with a ton of value, from the slick performance and powerful cameras to the years of software and security updates.
The Best Price on a Budget-Friendly Speaker
The JBL Go 5 is our top budget Bluetooth speaker. It’s available in 10 different colors, most of which are down to a match of the best price we’ve seen. It’s durable, lightweight, and sounds good for its size.

We see this deal for our favorite workout earbuds pretty regularly, but they only ever get about $20 cheaper, so it’s still a solid option if you’re in the market. The Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 play well with iOS and Android, have punchy sound, and feature the option for both transparency mode and active noise canceling.

The Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 remain our top earbuds for Android users (they also work with iOS). They’re aesthetically pleasing. They sound great. They’re comfortable, have a long-lasting battery, and active noise cancellation, plus some useful software features. If you want good earbuds that aren’t AirPods, these might be up your alley.
