Today's best early deals

Apple iPad 10.2 (2021): was $329.99 now $249 at Best Buy
The iPad 10.2 is still available at Best Buy for its lowest price ever. Apple's last-generation tablet may be slightly older tech, but the 10.2-inch Retina display and A13 Bionic chip ensure excellent picture quality and superior performance to this day. The entry-level slate can do it all without issue: whether that's browsing the net, streaming media, light work, or playing games. Ultimately, when it comes to powerful and affordable tablets that offer excellent value for money, it doesn't get better than the Apple iPad 10.2.

Fire TV Stick 4K Max: was $59.99 now $39.99 at Best Buy
This is a return to the lowest price we've seen for the newest version of Amazon's premium streaming device. The Fire TV Stick 4K Max streams all of the same content in the same ultra-high definition quality as the standard 4K version, but the extra power inside means faster and smoother performance when navigating apps. Plus, it uses WiFi 6E technology to give you a more stable and consistent streaming experience – if you have a compatible router. A worthwhile upgrade, then, if you're a very frequent user.

Fitbit Versa 4: was $199.95 now $149.95 at Best Buy
The latest Fitbit Versa 4 is down to $149.95 at Best Buy, which matches the recent Black Friday price and is just $10 more than the previous record-low. It's a great buy for fitness and sleep-tracking enthusiasts, as we wrote in our Fitbit Versa 4 review. It comes with loads of handy connectivity features like Google Wallet, Maps, and Bluetooth calls, as well as six days of battery life, loads of workout profiles, and advanced sleep tracking.

MacBook Air M2 (2022): was $1,099 now $849 at Best Buy
Best Buy has the MacBook Air M2 for its lowest-ever price. Even though the newer M3 model is now available this is still up there as one fo the best laptops you can buy according to our MacBook Air M2 review. We were particularly impressed with the stylish design, clear display, impressive performance, and long 18-hour battery life. For those needing a premium powerhouse for creative apps such as photo editing, video editing and more intense workloads, it's a smart investment at this price.

HP Chromebook 14: was $299 now $159 at Best Buy
I'm somewhat underwhelmed by the Chromebook deals this week but if you're after a cheap laptop for light use then this is a decent option. This HP Chromebook 14 is a basic device but it doesn't cost a lot and is capable of handling general browsing and schoolwork. It also prioritizes battery life and portability with its slim design, 14-inch display and full-day battery life. It's one that's well-suited to students or those always on the move who just need a cheap laptop.

Best Buy Memorial Day sale: key information

If you've got any burning questions about the Best Buy Memorial Day sale in 2024, we've got the answers for you along with all the most up-to-date information.

When will the Best Buy Memorial Day sale start?

Best Buy hasn't confirmed when it will launch its Memorial Day sale in 2024 yet. However, based on events in previous years, we expect it will launch a few days before the holiday to run across the full weekend with a start date on or around May 24. The retailer's appliances sale will likely start earlier than that, too, from around May 17.

Best Buy Memorial Day sale: deals to expect

The Memorial Day sales always feature massive discounts on major appliances and we're confident that Best Buy will take the lead with this for another year.

Be prepared for flat discounts of up to $2,000 on refrigerators, dishwashers, and washing machines from brands like Samsung, LG, Whirlpool, and more. Plus, there will be extra savings on bundle deals and useful extras such as free installation and delivery on select products.

Outside of that, we expect to see lots of great tech bargains. Best Buy's Memorial Day sale should also feature some of the best TV deals we've seen so far this year as the retailer looks to shift stock of last-generation models. This is your chance to score a bargain on budget HD sets, large-screen 4K TVs and high-end OLED displays.

Then, amongst all of that, there should be impressive discounts on laptops, headphones, smartwatches, tablets, air fryers, robot vacuums, games consoles, coffee makers and more.
