The 5 Best Weekend Tech Deals On Laptops, Monitors, TVs, and More

No matter what your weekend plans are, you should carve out some time for deal hunting. We’re seeing some nice prices on well-reviewed tech, and if you don’t want to dig deeply, just scroll down for five of the absolute best offers we’ve come up with. We’ve got huge discounts on top-rated monitors, TVs, laptops, and much more, from top brands.

Samsung Curved Gaming Monitor Deal

Have you picked up a powerful new graphics card and want to push it to the limit? It’s time to go widescreen. The Samsung Odyssey G9 is a spectacular curved monitor that will totally transform how you play your favorite games, with incredible Dual QHD (5120-by-1440) resolution paired with a 144Hz refresh rate for smooth, flicker-free frames. The OLED screen provides deep, pure blacks and vivid colors, and it automatically adjusts brightness on static areas of the screen to prevent burn-in. We unsurprisingly gave this awesome display an Editors’ Choice award in our review, with writer Zackery Cuevas declaring it “the ultrawide monitor to beat for immersive PC gaming.”

Acer Gaming Laptop Deal

One of the best ways to save on hardware is to look to the past. Gaming laptops from just a few years ago can still deliver extremely impressive performance for half the price of a newer machine, and the Acer Predator Triton 300 SE is a perfect example. We reviewed this unit back in 2022 and were impressed by how well it did, most notably long battery life and good speakers. This loadout ships with an impressive WQXGA IPS display that peaks at 240Hz refresh rate, and although the RTX 3060 graphics card is showing its age, it’s still more than capable of running a wide selection of games. For a gaming portable under a thousand bucks, this is a great deal while it lasts.

HP Wireless Printer Deal

The thing about buying a printer is that the sticker price is only half the story. Many units ship for cheap and then ding you on running costs, which is why we were impressed by the Smart Tank Plus 651 in our review, noting that while it skimps on some features that more expensive units offer, it’s extremely cost-effective over time thanks to the included ink supply giving you 8,000 color pages right at the jump. Print quality is also extremely sharp for a model this size. The downsides are that actual print speeds are a bit slower than the norm, but for most casual home uses this is a solid pick, especially at $100 off.

Logitech Wave Keys Keyboard Deal

The basic shape of a typewriter keyboard hasn’t changed much in over a century, but we’re learning lots more about how our hands and wrists want to interact with them. If you haven’t made the jump to a more ergonomic input method, now’s your chance, with a 25% price cut on the excellent Logitech Wave Keys keyboard and Lift vertical mouse. In our review of the Wave Keys, we gave it an Editors’ Choice award for its effective design, light weight, and subtle curved design for more comfortable use. We have a review of the Lift Mouse as well, which we also enjoyed thanks to 24 months of use on a single battery and a compact but comfortable feel in the hands. Getting both for less than the cost of one is a steal.

TCL 55-Inch TV Deal

Let’s close out with a juicy 48% price drop on a very impressive mid-sized TCL television set. The QM5K boasts HDR brightness with a new Halo Control system that helps reduce light bloom and boosts contrast, coupled with 500 local dimming zones. Dolby Atmos audio and DTS Virtual:X post-processing makes for surprisingly good spatial sound from the built-in speakers, and the Google TV interface is a breeze to use. We gave an Editors’ Choice award to the very similar QM6K, praising its deep blacks, potent colors, and speedy refresh rate in our review.
