WIRED Featured Deals
TCL QM6K QLED TV for $548 ($252 off)
Out of the dozens we’ve tested, the TCL QM6K is the best TV for most people. The panel is thin and lightweight; The display is full of new technologies such as a Halo Control system that helps reduce light bloom. All told, you’ll end up with a surprisingly good picture quality, rounded out with a slick Google TV interface. Add in the affordable price and—unless there’s a specific need you want to meet, like eye-watering brightness—it’s hard to beat this set in value or quality. (And if you do need eye-watering brightness, check out the TCL QM8K deal.)

The Skullcandy Grom wireless kids headphones are a fantastic choice. The folding design looks cool, and the headphones feel solid rather than cheap and plasticky. They’re easy to adjust and the onboard volume controls are a nice touch too. The battery lasts up to 40 hours in Bluetooth mode, and two pairs can be linked together using a 3.5-mm cable—perfect for siblings on a road trip.
Asus Chromebook CX15 for $139 ($81 off)

The Asus Chromebook CX15 is our favorite big-screen Chromebook for shoppers on a budget. It has a full-size keyboard and a 15.6-inch screen, plus lots of ports and solid battery life. We do have some gripes; The trackpad experience is a little clunky, and the colors on the display aren’t the greatest. The But for a laptop that costs this little, it offers excellent value. It would be especially great for a student just looking to get some homework and browsing done.
JBL Clip 5 for $65 ($15 off)

This is an excellent deal for the JBL Clip 5, which is our favorite clip-on Bluetooth speaker. It has a nifty little built-in carabiner that lets you dangle the speaker from a belt loop, bike basket, or backpack. (Or some other thing that doesn’t fit my alliterative pattern.) It packs surprisingly stout sound for its size, and the on-board buttons let you adjust the volume and playback without needing to reach for your phone. It’s also dust- and water-resistant, so you can play your tunes while you shower. A few different colors are on sale right now.
