Best New Zealand tech deals: Save up to NZ$800 on coffee machines, air fryers and iPhones

This latest version of the popular Crispi air fryer has two glass baskets, one with a 5.7L capacity and the other at 2.3L, giving you the freedom to cook a variety of dishes. And both come with lids, so you can serve in the same basket or cover and store in the fridge.

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.

If the HP laptop above is still quite out of your price range or if the specs are too overkill, then this ThinkPad all-rounder for less than half the price might be for you. With an Intel Core 5 processor and 16GB of RAM, this laptop is powerful enough for work and study, all wrapped in the iconic matte black ThinkPad look. With RAM and storage prices set to go up in 2026, this 39% discount makes it a deal that’s hard to resist.

This is one of the first deals we've seen for the new Ninja BlendBoss, so a NZ$90 price cut is a pretty solid start. We scored this small but mighty blender 4.5 stars in our review, praising its convenient integrated 26-ounce travel tumbler and powerful blades, making it perfect for a quick cool smoothie ahead of a busy day in the heat.

We're about to see new pro-level iPhones later this month, so retailers are discounting the very popular 17 Pro in anticipation of the new stock coming in. Use the code LOVEIPHONE at checkout to get this price.

Apple's latest noise-cancelling buds represent a significant upgrade from the AirPods Pro 2, but at full price they’re significantly more expensive. This discount takes care of that nicely (although if you're a Pro 2 user it's not worth the upgrade). New features in this model include a heart-rate monitor and even better ANC than before. I personally also think they're the best-fitting AirPods Apple has made to date.

We've called the Apple Watch SE 3 the best Apple smartwatch for most people, thanks to its S10 Chip — making it just as powerful and speedy the higher end Series 11 or Ultra 3 watches. This discount may not look much, but this is pretty good for a current Apple product.

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

The FE tablet above is the better tablet, but at this price the S10 Lite might be the better buy for some. While the above competes with the iPad Air, at this price the Lite is facing off against the baseline iPad. If you're looking for a tablet to watch, scroll and draw on, this is a great buy.

This entry-level, no-frills Android tablet from Samsung is great for media consumption and basic computing tasks that can be a solid Mother's Day gift or an affordable toy for schoolkids that are still on holiday. This already cheap tablet getting a further discount is an easy pick.

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 air fryer is perfect for those who love to cook for a crowd, thanks to its massive 9.5L capacity. The two trays will also let you cook two foods at once. This 55% discount is worth considering for anyone who cooks a lot in one go.

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.

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.

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.

Dyson may be known for its stick vacuums these days, but the Dyson Big Ball Absolute is a great workhorse corded vac providing consistent power, making it a fantastic choice for those who have carpets all around their homes. This deal doesn’t quite make this the cheapest Dyson vacuum right now, but if you value a vacuum that never needs recharging, this one might be for you.

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.

ThinkPad laptops may be known as a favourite among corporate fleets for decades now, but it doesn't mean consumers should shun this workhorse. These PCs are no-nonsense machines known for their reliability and repairability, even developing a cult following online. This discount for a Ryzen 5-equipped laptop with 16GB of DDR5 RAM makes this hard to pass up.

The Charge 6 is the latest in a successful series of powerful, portable speakers that have a nifty trick up their sleeve. Not only can the Charge 6 last up to 28 hours on a single charge, but it can also be used as a power bank to top up your devices via its USB-C port. Sound quality is energetic and detailed in equal measure, and it’s built to withstand virtually anything you wish to throw at it.

Featuring a Ryzen 7 processor, 16GB of DDR5 RAM and a 512GB SSD, this no-frills setup is perfect for anyone who doesn't deal with demanding graphics and just needs a capable laptop for work, study and entertainment. For an extra NZ$1, you can also get a Lenovo-branded backpack to store the laptop in.

Our most recommended air fryer for most people is a cool NZ$200 off direct from Ninja, making the DoubleStack XXXL hard to pass up if you’re looking to pick up a model that can feed a plethora of mouths. An innovative design makes this 9.5L air fryer to fit into smaller spaces better than others with the same capacity, and our testing has found that its more compact size hasn’t affected the quality of cooking in any meaningful way.

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 newest robovac wins where it's most important — cleaning and cleaning very well at that, with its smart obstacle avoidance, auto vacuuming and bagless design as its strengths. It's not perfect, as our reviewer found some glaring misses that could understandably make you pause at full price, but this discount should at least allay those concerns somewhat if the best cleaning ability is your priority.

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.

Yes, New Zealand generally has great air quality, but dust, pet dander, smoke and other irritants are still going to impact households anywhere. This air purifier from Shark has a HEPA filter that can last 5 years before needing a replacement, and can also cover up to 23 square metres. This discount would make this an easy recommendation for most households.

If you're in the market for new AirPods but don't want the in-ear design of the AirPods Pros (or if you're on a budget), PBTech has the 4th generation Apple earbuds on sale. They're great sounding, secure and comfortable to wear even without the eartips. The ANC version is also discounted at NZ$296.

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.

Still want to give your loved one flowers but want to mix it up a bit? This gorgeous rose bouquet made of Lego is the perfect alternative that will not only be a great addition to any space, but also will give you plenty of time to relax while making the four-piece set. Plus, unlike real flowers, it’ll never die! This 822-piece set should make for a fantastic bonding experience while building it together.

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.

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.
