Today's 10 best Labor Day tech deals
Amazon's Labor Day sale features Apple's all-new AirPods 4 on sale for $89.99, marking a return to the record-low price. The AirPods 4 feature a new design for all-day comfort and feature Apple's H2 chip, which supports personalized spatial audio and voice isolation. You also get a redesigned case with 30 hours of battery life and support for USB-C for wireless charging.
The Amazon Kindle is just $5 shy of its Prime Day price, which isn't bad for a Labor Day deal, and is likely the cheapest we'll see it until Black Friday. The standard Kindle offers plenty of value and useful features like adjustable lighting and contrast, a lengthy battery life of up to six weeks, and 16GB of storage for thousands of books. Someone who already has experience with ereaders might yearn for a more premium product like the Paperwhite or Scribe, but the standard Kindle is more than enough for a casual reader looking for a cheaper option.
Just ahead of Labor Day, Amazon has LG's all-new 65-inch C5 OLED TV on sale for its lowest price yet.

You get a great-looking 13.6-inch Liquid Retina display, while the boost to 16GB of RAM keeps all your programs running smoothly. It's just a shame Apple still insists on only 256GB of storage as standard, which feels a little miserly in 2025. Nevertheless, this is still one of the best laptops you can buy if you need a performance powerhouse for productivity and creative tasks – especially after this $200 discount.
Get the best compact, single-serve blender for under $50 at Walmart's Labor Day sale. This is an ideal solution for your daily smoothie or protein shake. With its built-in handle and sippy cup lid, you'll be ready to make your favorite creation just before leaving the house.

Right now, you don't even need to trade-in to get this phone, which is still valued at $1,199, for free alongside a new line on an Ultimate unlimited plan. Yes, that's the priciest plan at the carrier, but this is still a significant discount that's well worth considering if you want a high-end device.

The Sonos Ray is the manufacturer's affordable upgrade to built-in TV speakers. Even though it doesn't give as impactful an upgrade as its pricier counterparts, it's more than enough to bolster the sound for TV shows, movies, and games. It's also an ideal choice for small spaces because of its compact size, and the easy setup is another plus for the budget-friendly pick.
This second-generation Sonos Beam soundbar is an older model, but this considerable discount drops it to its best price since Black Friday. Even with its age, it's still a great offer for a compact and stylish soundbar that also drops the subwoofer for another space-saving measure. It offers easy integration with the wider Sonos ecosystem if you want a larger home theater system, and Dolby Atmos support provides a more immersive experience when watching movies. We also found it's great at playing music in our Sonos Beam (Gen 2) review, so it's a good choice if you need an all-in-one soundbar for multiple uses.
The biggest, best and most powerful soundbar Sonos has ever made is back to its lowest-ever price in the Best Buy Labor Day sale. As you can read in our Sonos Arc Ultra review, we think it's the best all-in-one Dolby Atmos soundbar you can buy, with strong, detailed and clear audio quality. A lack of some features, such as HDMI passthrough and DTS-HD support, is a little disappointing. However, the Sonos Arc Ultra offers just about the best home cinematic experience you can buy in a single package – if you're willing to pay the premium price. This $100 discount takes the sting out a little, at least.
Best Labor Day Apple device deals
The Apple AirTag is Amazon's top-selling tech gadget, and it's on sale for only $23, only a few bucks more than the record-low price we saw on Prime Day.

Newer M3 and M4 models are now available, but this is an unbelievable price for the MacBook Air 13-inch with an M2 chip. Sure, it's an older version, but this is still an incredibly powerful laptop if you need a premium powerhouse for school and productivity, coding, or creative work. You also get double the amount of RAM at 16GB, although the 256GB of storage feels a little paltry in 2025. Still, we rated it highly in our MacBook Air M2 review, thanks to the stylish design, clear display, impressive performance, and long 18-hour battery life.

Chromebooks tend to be the better choice in this price range as they offer better value for money and get stronger performance from relatively cheaper components. Nevertheless, I think this Asus Vivobook 14 is a surprisingly good low-cost Windows laptop. It has a fairly low-end spec with 8GB of RAM and an Intel i3 processor, but that's enough to cover the basics – it's just a shame there's a miserly 128GB of storage. Still, this is a smart buy for general everyday use, word processing, streaming shows, web browsing, video calls, or answering emails.
Display - 15.6 inches
Processor - AMD Ryzen 3
RAM - 8GB

If storage is a concern with the laptop above, then I'd strongly suggest upgrading to this Dell Laptop 15. It's one of the best cheap laptops in Dell's latest sale, with an AMD Ryzen 3 processor, 8GB of RAM and a surprisingly large 512GB SSD that all work together to ensure good overall performance and enough essential speedy storage for the price. This is a great low price for this configuration, so I recommend it now if you're on a budget and need a basic laptop for general everyday use, admin tasks, light work, or schoolwork.

If display size is important to you, then let me point you towards with Asus Vivobook 16 at Walmart, which sports a 16-inch screen and an older (but still high-end) Intel i7 processor. You also get a generous 16GB of RAM and a good-sized 512GB SSD for storage, making it a powerful device that will handle anything you throw at it, though you do sacrifice portability with the larger chassis. That's likely worth it, though, if you need the extra screen real estate and high-performance components for more advanced workloads and creative tasks.

Altogether, it's an excellent value all-around option and a device we scored 4.5/5 in our recent review.
Display: 16 inches
Processor: Intel Core Ultra 7-155U
RAM: 16GB

Moving up in the price brackets, I've got my eye on this heavily reduced HP Pavilion. At $699, the price is right here considering you're getting a combination of an Ultra 7 chipset and 16GB of RAM. These Pavilion laptops are very much the 'sensible' choice, and therefore a great choice if you need a reliable machine with a decent amount of power for work or productivity tasks.

The Dell 16 Plus has only been on the shelves for a few months, but there's already a huge price cut on this powerful spec when you buy directly from the manufacturer.

This is one of the older Dell XPS 13 models, but it's still an impressive and powerful laptop for the price.

Get this if you want to score a good price for a high-end premium device that boasts speed, performance, and responsiveness for coding, multitasking, and creative tasks. We awarded this model four stars out of five with our Dell XPS 13 review, while also praising the slick aluminum chassis, vibrant display, lightweight design for easy portability and solid 12-hour battery life.

This MSI Thin is a sturdy budget laptop powered by a 13th Gen Intel Core i5-13420H and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050.

It has a 512GB SSD for storing a modest library of games and 16GB RAM for powering through play sessions and multitasking. The full HD display and 144 Hz refresh rate are also a good shout.

At $1,099, this is one of the cheapest machines I've ever seen to carry a higher-end RTX 5070 graphics card, and you also get a superb 14th-gen Core i7 chipset for good measure. While you'll likely want to upgrade to 32GB of RAM to unleash this laptop's full potential, this is a fantastic bang-for-the-buck 1440p gaming machine.
Covering all the bases, the Asus ROG Strix G16 is a great gaming laptop on paper. It has all the hardware you need for playing the latest games, like the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 GPU, 16GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD. It also has an advanced cooling system along with a full-surround RGB lightbar, so it’s well-equipped for all your gaming needs. For studying time, you can switch to stealth mode to give you a sleeker look. This is one of the lowest prices we've seen for a device featuring the excellent mid-range GPU.

It's only $10 off, but let's not forget that this was already one of the best budget-friendly air fryers out there, which we also awarded four stars in our review. The 4-quart ceramic-coated basket is perfect for cooking and crisping up food with a capacity of around 2 lb. of French fries. It's easy to use too, with three preset functions and dishwasher-safe parts for an effortless cleanup.

Shark's powerful Matrix robot vacuum offers deep cleaning thanks to precision grid technology, which takes multiple passes over dirt and debris to thoroughly clean.

Thanks to the inclusion of Amazon Alexa, you can also control the vacuum with the compatible Shark app or through voice control. Today's Labor Day deal brings the price down to $174.
Best Labor Day Headphone deals
This is an incredible price for a pair of wireless on-ear headphones – on sale for just $29.95 at Amazon's Labor Day sale. The JBL Tune 510BT features Wireless Bluetooth 5.0 Streaming, so you can stream music and podcasts and take calls from your device, and you'll enjoy an impressive 40 hours of battery life. It's not a model we've tested, but the JBL Tune 510BT has over 50,000 positive reviews on Amazon and is one of the best-selling headphones on the site.
Now, at more than $20 off, you're looking at unbeatable value. These cans offer exceptionally long-lasting battery life, impressive audio quality, and companion app support for customizing the equalizer. Yes, you won't find fancy features like active noise cancellation here, but that's to be expected at this price point.
The Sony WH-1000MX4 are older now, but they are still some of the best over-ear headphones ever. These wireless Sony cans package together top-notch audio, excellent comfort, and effective noise cancellation all at a reasonable price point that's about $100 less than the newer Sony XM5, which are only a minor upgrade.
The XM5 are still the newest and best in Sony's class-leading wireless over-ear lineup. The older XM4 are outstanding, so it'll come as little surprise to know that these are also incredibly hard to beat – especially with a $100 discount. They don't fold up like the XM4, but they're still a comfortable, smart, great-sounding pair of headphones that are highly effective at blocking outside noise. Saving some cash by getting the XM4 is a viable option if you aren't fussed about the latest tech, but wait for the full sale when those older cans should drop under $200.
Bose is the best brand around for providing excellent active noise cancellation features, and you can now get these fantastic and affordable earbuds for a great low price. With the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds, you get fewer options than the high-end range, but you still get up to 8.5 hours of battery life, the ability to adjust the equalizer and a very comfy fit. They’ll instantly make your commute, your runs, or your walks far more enjoyable.
If you're looking for more affordable over-ears that don't compromise on quality, consider the Bose QuietComfort Headphones, now available for $229 at Best Buy. As with the Ultra version, you get impressive noise cancellation, top-tier audio quality, and 24 hours of battery life but in a much more affordable package.
The Sonos Ace is rated as our top pair of ANC headphones with Dolby Atmos for a reason - and they're now available for a record-low price. They're a great buy if you appreciate immersive movie sound and if you can pair them with a Sonos soundbar to enjoy the TV Audio Swap and TrueCinema features, too. The Sonos Ace support lossless audio via Bluetooth and USB-C and up to 30 hours of playback on one charge.
Best Labor Day Tablet & ereader deals
You can get the latest Apple iPad A16 on sale for $299, only $20 more than the record-low price. The most significant upgrade compared to the previous generation model is the latest A16 chip for faster performance. You also get double the storage of 128GB as standard, a sharp 11-inch Liquid Retina display, and solid 12MP front and back cameras.
Amazon's Labor Day sale has the powerful iPad Mini on sale for a record-low price of $399. Apple's iPad mini features a powerful A17 Bionic chip, 128GB of storage, and an 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display, making it a great choice if you're looking for a smaller tablet with premium features.
Amazon has the newest iPad Air with the M3 chip on sale for its lowest price yet. In addition to that more powerful chip, the latest iPad Air features a crisp Liquid Retina display, 128GB of storage as standard, 12MP front and rear cameras, and support for Apple's AI features.
If you're looking for a tablet with laptop-like power, Amazon has the M4 iPad Pro on sale for $894.99 – a record-low price. The iPad Pro delivers incredible performance and speed, thanks to Apple's latest M4 Chip, an exceptional battery life, and an 11-inch Ultra Retina XDR display.
The Amazon Kindle is just $5 shy of its Prime Day price, which isn't bad for a Labor Day deal, and is likely the cheapest we'll see it until Black Friday. The standard Kindle offers plenty of value and useful features like adjustable lighting and contrast, a lengthy battery life of up to six weeks, and 16GB of storage for thousands of books. Someone who already has experience with ereaders might yearn for a more premium product like the Paperwhite or Scribe, but the standard Kindle is more than enough for a casual reader looking for a cheaper option.
Amazon's latest tablet, the Fire HD 10, is on sale for $89.99 at today's Labor Day sale. It features a large, bright 10-inch Full HD display, 3GB of RAM, and an octa-core processor for enhanced performance. The tablet also works with Amazon Alexa and provides an impressive 12 hours of battery life.
If you want the biggest and best Amazon tablet, you can grab the Fire Max 11 for $174.99 – the best price we've seen this year. The vivid 11-inch display is ideal for streaming your favorite shows, reading a book, or playing games. The battery life is up to 14 hours, while the optional stylus and keyboard add extra functionality to this capable tablet. It's also easy to do light admin work with.

Apple iPhone 16 Pro: free with a new line on an Unlimited Welcome plan at Verizon
Verizon's current deal on the excellent iPhone 16 Pro lets you bundle in a free device alongside a new line on the entry-level Unlimited Welcome plan. That means you can potentially get up to four devices for free on a plan that costs just $120/mo in total for four lines. In short, this is a pretty niche deal but it's easily one of the best we've seen from the carrier in terms of total savings. And, with the iPhone 17 set to release soon, this could be the last chance to get a decent iPhone on a budget plan without trading in.
iPhone 16 Pro Max: free with a new unlimited line (no trade) at Verizon
Verizon's current deal on the iPhone 16 Pro Max is the best the carrier has ever offered on the device. Right now, you don't even need to trade-in to get this phone, which is still valued at $1,199, for free alongside a new line on an Ultimate unlimited plan. Yes, that's the priciest plan at the carrier, but this is still a significant discount that's well worth considering if you want a high-end device.
Free NFL Sunday YouTube ticket: with phones and internet plans at Verizon
New and existing Verizon customers alike can get a free NFL Sunday streaming ticket worth up to $480 at the carrier. This flexible promotion is eligible with a wide range of internet and phone plans and includes completely unlimited streaming for the upcoming 2025 season. Note, however, that it doesn't stack with some of the carrier's discounts that are also available on the latest phones.
Samsung Galaxy S25 series: up to $250 off upfront, or $580 with a trade-in rebate at Samsung
All the latest Samsung Galaxy S25 phones are available with record-beating deals at the official store today. While we've seen bigger trade-in rebates before, all four devices have excellent upfront discounts that bring them right down to their lowest unlocked prices yet. Of particular note is the brand new Galaxy S25 Edge, which is available for just $949 upfront right now.
Samsung Galaxy Z series: up to $300 off upfront, or up to $1,000 off with a trade-in rebate at Samsung
More into your foldable phones? Today's deals at Samsung are even better on the latest Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7. Available are excellent trade-in rebates of up to $1,000 or upfront discounts of up to $300 - which, take these devices down to their lowest prices so far.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7: was $1,999 now $1,599 with a carrier activation at Best Buy
The Fold 7 is barely a few months old as of writing, so Best Buy's Labor Day discount is especially noteworthy. At $1,699 upfront for an unlocked device, this is a great discount – although you can knock a further $100 off if you activate on a major carrier immediately. With a refined design, 200MP camera, and extremely large 8-inch internal display, we think the Fold 7 is easily the best foldable from Samsung yet and well worth the cash if you've got some to spend.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge: was $1,099 now $849 with a carrier activation at Best Buy
The Edge is another brand-new device that just hit the market. It is, however, a little more niche than its other S25 siblings, trading out the highest-end features from the Ultra for a gorgeous slim-line design. If you want a super-slim device, then today's deal at Best Buy brings the Edge right down to its lowest price so far.
Samsung Galaxy S25: was $799 now $619.99 with carrier activation at Best Buy
If you're on a smaller budget, don't skip over Best Buy's excellent Labor Day deal on the Galaxy S25. At $719 upfront, today's price cut doesn't match the record-low for an unlocked device, but you can activate for a further $100 discount. That does, indeed, make this a match for the record-low price on the flagship device, which is still one of our favorites here at TechRadar.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra: was $1,299 now $949 with carrier activation at Best Buy
At $949, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is a pricey but worthwhile consideration in our books. Next to the Edge and the Fold, it's certainly the 'sensible' choice with its mix of a high-end design and features. As with the other deals at Best Buy today, you'll need to activate your device on a carrier to get an additional $100 off the list price. That will take the device down to match its previous record-low price.

A smart alarm clock and speaker for $65
Amazon's Echo Spot (a smart alarm clock and speaker) has been on my radar for quite some time, and I might finally pull the trigger now that it's on sale for Labor Day.
The Echo Spot pairs a 2.83-inch touchscreen with a 1.73-inch front-firing speaker, making it an ideal smart alarm clock. With Alexa onboard, you can ask the assistant for the weather, play music, or even schedule alarms.

Best Buy's major appliances sale is a big one
As it always is, one of the biggest offers from Best Buy's Labor Day sale is its massive appliances sale.

Released this year as the successor to the popular B4 OLED, the LG B5 is on track to be the best budget OLED TV on the market. Best Buy's Labor Day sale has dropped the 48-inch model to $699.99, which is a new record-low price and an incredible deal.
The 48-inch display delivers an exceptional picture with brilliant colors and sharp contrast. You also get excellent gaming features, thanks to the four HDMI 2.1 ports and new AI tools, including AI Search, AI Concierge, and an improved AI Chatbot.

The Kindle gets a rare Labor Day discount
I don't usually see deals on the Kindle during Labor Day, as they are usually saved for Prime Day or Black Friday, but it seems Amazon is making an exception this year. I've spotted this price cut to $89.99 for the standard Kindle, which is just $5 more than the deal I saw during Prime Day for the popular ereader. It's a decent time to buy, then, if you don't want to wait until Black Friday.

Here's the one Labor Day deal you need to see right now
If you asked me for the one standout Labor Day deal from everything I've seen so far, it would be this record-low price for the latest MacBook Air at Best Buy.
As one of the best laptops you can buy today, it's a performance powerhouse, ideal for more or less anything you throw at it, including everything from day-to-day tasks to more demanding photo and video editing work or coding. It also helps that the design is gorgeous, and the all-day battery life means you won't need to be attached to a mains socket all the time.
