Best New Zealand tech deals: Save up to NZ$1,200 on vacuums, air fryers and laptops

This stick vacuum from Dyson introduced the company’s laser light feature to help illuminate dirt on floors, helping users measure how much was cleaned. Along with very powerful suction and benefitting from a well-designed and high quality build, this premium vacuum is a steal thanks to this discount.

This laptop is great for multitasking and productivity thanks to its whopping 32GB of DDR5 RAM and Ryzen 7 processor, and won't be a slouch for gaming either with an AMD Radeon 840M GPU. A discount this big during a RAM and storage crisis is always welcome, especially if you need something sooner rather than later.

Our esteemed colleagues at What Hi-Fi? said this turntable from JBL is a surefire winner in the budget space. It has a great quality built-in phono output making connection to an amplifier as easy as possible (but you can bypass it if you wish), or you can stream via Bluetooth to a wireless speaker. If you're looking for a turntable upgrade, or a solid starting point to enter the world of vinyl, this JBL spinner is an excellent choice.

If you’re cooking for a crowd a lot and your current air fryer struggles to feed many mouths, the 10.4L Ninja XXXL FlexDrawer Air Fryer might just be for you. While the large capacity also means it’ll take up more counter space, our review found the FlexDrawer easy to use and has constantly produced great cooking results. Paying more than NZ$500 for an air fryer may be a big ask for many households, but this deal makes the FlexDrawer hard to pass up for those who like to cook for a crowd.

This is Ninja’s first go at making a coffee machine, proving to be a hit among Ninja fans and professional reviewers alike. The Luxe Café Premier is a 3-in-1 machine that brews quality espresso, drip coffee, and fast cold brew using its Barista Assist technology, an integrated grinder, and weight-based dosing. This discount for a well-received espresso machine should make this even more tempting for any coffee lover looking to upgrade their home barista setup.

This classic stick vacuum from Dyson is the company’s most affordable model and this discount makes it even more tempting for anyone looking to upgrade to a modern stick vacuum. While this doesn’t have the latest and greatest tech, it’ll still do the basics quite adequately. With up to 40 minutes of fade free suction, it can easily clean hard floors, carpets and more. It can also be used as a compact handheld vacuum, making it easy to access hard to reach spaces.

When these first came out in 2023, Soundcore positioned them as a much cheaper competitor to the premium noise-cancelling headphones from Sony and Bose. I did own a pair and I’d say the company’s claims check out – the ANC was great for the price, but the lengthy battery life was arguably its best feature. TechRadar’s review noted that it feels a bit cheap, but for NZ$158, it’s hardly a dealbreaker.

There is excellent value for money here as this one tool will take care of hair anywhere on the body. It comes with 15 attachments and offers 26 hair length settings. Its battery life also promises to be just as good – up to 4 weeks on a single charge. It also happens to be waterproof.

Holding a spot on our list of the best dash cams, the Vantrue E1 is super compact, yet is capable of recording clear, detailed footage day and night. A comprehensive mobile, PC and Mac app allows for easy footage transfers and built-in GPS ensures you know exactly where any incidents take place.

The best entry-level bean-to-cup coffee maker has received a good discount for Prime Day. It's simple to use, taking care of the grinding, tamping and pouring for you. The porta filter will even automatically slide into position for you. Do note there's no milk frothing here, but a matching milk frother is available. Also available in black for NZ$650.27

We gave these stunning earbuds 4.5 stars in our review as they have class-leading audio handling and impeccable sound quality that rivals the best wireless earbuds. With balanced sound, effective ANC and a great battery life, these Sennheiser buds will make any audiophile smile.

This compact air fryer packs 1700W of power into a portable design, with two borosilicate glassware containers that serve as both frying baskets and serving dishes. The borosilicate means they can also withstand extreme temperatures, making it easy to take your favourite foods from frozen to crispy, and it's safer to use than any non-stick basket. The Crispi also comes with two removable crisping grates and two snap-on container lids for easy food-storage post-feast.

These earbuds aim to help you sleep better by not just blocking noise, but also by playing white noise or other soothing sounds. The Sleep A20's battery life is also rated for 14 hours so you'll be covered the whole evening. Use the code SOUNDCORE at checkout to get this price.

This OLED gaming monitor from HP has 4K resolution and a 240hz refresh rate, making it perfect for competitive multiplayer as well as for creative tasks like editing videos and graphic design. While NZ$2,000 is a lot for a monitor, the true blacks from the QD-OLED technology is well worth the investment.

These are some of the best budget earbuds (even at their original price) you can get today, delivering punchy, detailed sound complete with support for 360 Reality Audio spatial audio. They do miss out on ANC, but otherwise they're a fantastic set of earbuds that prove you don't need to spend hundreds of dollars for great sound. Make sure to apply the NZ$16.47 coupon for the full saving.

This massive discount on what is still a fantastic robot vacuum is exclusively for Prime members, and one that's worth considering if you need a new robovac. This one works nicely indeed, as evidenced by our 4.5-star score for the Dreame L40 Ultra review. It vacuums, mops, then cleans itself, with minimal need for human intervention.

Dyson's V10 stick vacuum got a refresh this year, adding the new conical floorhead and making it compatible with the company's self-emptying dock. The variant with the Auto-empty Dok is also available for NZ$1,099.

This Garmin watch has a rugged exterior that's thermal and shock resistant, as well as water-rated to 100m, making it the perfect watch for bushwalkers and hikers. This version has solar power to help make the already long battery life go even further. This discount makes this great watch a tempting buy for hikers and trail runners alike.

This fully automatic coffee machine uses a ceramic grinder and fast heating time to help quickly whip up a cuppa, as well as a height-adjustable coffee outlet and milk frother to accommodate taller glasses.

The Dreame Hair Gleame hair dryer is an affordable alternative to premium options from bigger brands, retaining a similar aesthetic to some that have a cult-like following. Performance-wise it’s no slouch with its motor spinning at 110,000 RPM for fast airflow and quick drying. It also has built-in ion technology, which results in smooth, shiny hair. The slim and lightweight build also makes it easy to use and comfortable to hold.

Samsung's new budget Galaxy A57 is a mid-range handset that closely resembles a flagship and improves upon its predecessor both on the inside and outside. This discount is a welcome one for a product that just released, and could be tempting for someone who's on the fence. Use the code EARLYLABOUR26 at checkout to get this price.

While ice cream is usually synonymous with summer and hot weather, I personally find it’s still an enjoyable treat all-year round, so this deal for Ninja’s Creami ice cream maker should be right up your alley if you’re just like me. Our review found it makes creamy and smooth frozen desserts, and also does dairy-free ice cream well. At full price it is tricky to outright recommend, but this deal should make it a bit more tempting. Use the code PBDEAL at checkout to get this price.

If you’re considering making smoothies and drinks on the go, Ninja has upgraded its popular Blast personal blender by adding in a more powerful motor and a tougher blade unit. Our reviewer found it was able to blitz even difficult, fibrous ingredients like kale into silky smoothies with just a single blending cycle.

This 2-in-1 MagSafe-compatible charger from Ugreen allows you to simultaneously charge your iPhone (from 12 series and up) and your AirPods (or other earbuds and accessories that support wireless charging). The phone charger is rated at 7.5W and the bottom charger is at 5W, but Ugreen says using a charging adapter of at least 25W (sold separately) would further maximise charging efficiency. For any discerning Apple fan, this deal makes this charger hard to pass up.

If you’re a frequent traveller or if you’re just looking to have a single charging brick for all your smaller tech, this three-port 65W charger from Ugreen delivers fast charging even with all three slots taken. Our reviewer wasn’t a fan of its looks and the fact that the prongs aren’t foldable (a limitation of using GaN technology), but for this price, I’m sure those are minor enough to overcome for most of you.

This ergonomic vertical mouse is perfect for small hands and it encourages better posture, thus reducing aches along the wrist, shoulder and shoulder blade. I use it myself (I have the white colourway) and can't recommend it highly enough, even at full price.
