Amazon is offering a ton of deals to entice back-to-school shoppers, but not all of them are actually good. That’s where I come in — I’m a Deals Editor for Tom’s Guide and I spend my time tracking price drops, sales and discounts to get you the best value for your money.
So, what are the deals you should actually get this year? One of the most popular deals this year is the MacBook Air 13-inch (M4/256GB) on sale for $799 at Amazon ($200 off.) This is a stellar saving that definitely deserves all the hype — we rank this model as the best laptop on the market right now and it’s a machine that will last you for years to come. The MacBook Air M4 delivers on pretty much everything you could want out of a laptop, with speedy performance, long battery life and a great display.
However, many people are also buying the Beats Studio Pro X Kim Kardashian for $179 at Amazon, which I’m more hesitant to recommend. Sure, they look awesome in this shade of brown. But we tested them out in our Beats Studio Pro review and noted that their sound quality via Bluetooth was thin and their earcups heated up fast, making them a bit uncomfortable to wear. It’s also worth mentioning these headphones sold for $159 last year on Black Friday.
I’ve gone through Amazon’s trending pages and pulled out the most popular back-to-school deals this year, and will share my advice as to whether these deals are really worth it. Keep scrolling to see them all. For more ways to save, see our Amazon promo codes and check out the Home Depot deals I’d shop from $3.
