I've stopped overspending on tech — you can too with these 18 items under AU$100

Between the rising costs of tech components like RAM and storage, and the general cost-of-living pressures we’re experiencing, it can be a big ask for many households to get premium brand-named tech, especially when more affordable options can be just as good (or even better).

Amazon Australia consistently remains a great source of tech bargains, and I’ve found lots of quality gear at very competitive prices over the years, instead of having to shell out more cash for premium-priced tech that is maybe only marginally better.

I haven’t looked back since — my home office and the rest of my living space are replete with bargain finds from Amazon, like monitor arms, gaming controllers, and even meat thermometers that have served me well for years, even if they were dirt cheap when I bought them.

You can score some bargains of your own too, with this list of affordable tech under AU$100 that I’ve found on Amazon. These include some gear I already own, others that are recommended by our team of experts, and even a few that have been added to my Amazon wishlist for either myself down the road or as gifts.
