An Earbud Deal That’ll Be Music To Her Ears

Your mom probably needs a little peace and quiet, which is why the active noise cancellation in the latest and greatest AirPods is a wonderful gift. We gave an Editors’ Choice award to the AirPods Pro 2 in PCMag’s review, praising the exceptional sound quality, effortless pairing with iOS devices, upgraded charging case and Find My support. Walmart has them on sale for 30% off right now. Mom will love their comfortable fit, simple setup, device-free Siri support and gestural controls as she rocks out to her favorite tunes.

A Speaker Deal Worth Speaking Up About

If Mom’s not into headphones, maybe a cute but punchy Bluetooth speaker is the way to go? We gave an “Excellent” rating to Sony’s pint-sized SRS-XB100 in our review, noting that the unit was fully dustproof and waterproof with an IP67 rating, delivered remarkably rich and clear sound for its size across a variety of benchmarking songs, and worked great as a speakerphone thanks to a well-constructed internal microphone. With up to 16 hours of battery life in between each two hour charge, it’s a great pick for a mom on the go. A 20% price cut makes it a solid budget gift buy.

Keeping things organized is a key part of any mom’s life, which makes Amazon’s excellent Kindle Scribe ereader a top pick.

We gave it a “Good” review, praising the Scribe’s great handwriting experience, comfortable feel and USB-C charging. You can get a 19% discount right now if you click fast.

A Robot Vacuum Deal To Clean Up On

Cleaning is the bane of every mom’s existence, so why not take some of the pressure off by picking her up a self-motivated robot floor companion? We gave the Roomba j9+ an Editors’ Choice award in our review, raving about the robot’s increased battery life, better obstacle avoidance, and impressive suction power. With the new Dirt Detective functionality, it learns from how messy each area of your house is and adjusts its routes accordingly, and this model is also guaranteed to avoid pet poop or it’ll send you a replacement. Don’t tell Mom you got it for 22% off. Or maybe do, moms love deals!

A Tablet Deal You Have To Swipe

A tablet is one of the most dependable tech gifts, because pretty much everybody will have a use for one. Whether it’s scrolling recipes, watching Netflix, answering emails, or a dozen other things, this fantastic Lenovo unit sits near the top of the heap. In our review of the Lenovo Tab Plus, we were impressed by its rich audio courtesy of eight built-in JBL speakers, its exceptional battery life, and ergonomic built-in kickstand. Running on the Android operating system, it’s a breeze to use and feels great in your hands, and at 14% off this is the lowest price we’ve seen in a long time.
