After a relatively quiet few months, Amazon is bringing back another of its famously invented shopping holidays.
The Amazon Spring Sale is in its third year, running now through March 31.
Like during last year's event, Amazon is promising customers thousands of deals across various daily, themed categories.
Of course, as we’ve seen in the past with Prime Day, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday, the true discounts on good products will likely be buried among junk deals on shoddy wares.
The WIRED Reviews team tests gear all year long, and we fact-checked discounts on the products we actively recommend to our friends, family, and readers.
We’ve highlighted the best deals from the Amazon Spring Sale below.
Be sure to check out our other deals coverage for vacuum discounts , smart bird feeders , and more.
Updated March 27, 2026: We've added additional deals, removed expired discounts, and checked for accuracy throughout.
Sony WH-1000XM6 Noise-Canceling Headphones for $398 ($62 off)
Our audiophile reviewers test more headphones than anyone would deem sane or necessary.
The Sony WH-1000XM6 are the pair they've declared the best wireless headphones of all, with “the best noise reduction on Earth.” You'll also get 30 hours of battery life, multipoint Bluetooth pairing, folding ear cups and a travel case, sparkling and clear sound, and fabulous controls.
They're nearly perfect.
When they're not on sale for this price, they're selling for the full MSRP.
If you're in the market, now is the time—or, if you're not ready right now, wait until the next time they're on sale for this price.
This nifty expandable soundbar is niche but great if you need it.
It has clear sound and excellent value, especially on sale.
There aren't a lot of good mobile controllers for big phones and tablets, but that's exactly what this is.
It comes within $10 of the best price we've tracked.
Our favorite gaming headset is usually affordable, but it's even cheaper right now.
I (Louryn) recently bought it, and I love its comfy fit, ease of use, and clear sound.
Not all colors are on sale.
Nothing Ear (a) Wireless Earbuds for $59 ($50 off)
The Nothing Ear (a) were our favorite wireless earbuds for a while, and we still like them a lot and recommend them frequently.
This price is a match of the best we've seen.
We like their stylish design, transparent charging case, great noise cancellation, balanced sound, and comfortable fit.
They pair easily and quickly with both Android and iOS devices.
The battery life is pretty solid at up to five and a half hours, and there's even an app that lets you adjust the EQ.
For $59, these are very difficult to beat.
Qi2 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Station
The best cheap Qi2 3-in-1 charging station is even more affordable right now.
It can top off your iPhone, AirPods, and Apple Watch simultaneously.
This offers the best spot treatment we've found while testing red light therapy devices .
Our reviewers saw improved skin texture and elasticity.
It's normally pricey; sales are uncommon.
After a few legal disputes , Ringconn is here to stay.
Our favorite budget smart ring is slim, lightweight, and doesn't require a subscription.
We really like this filtered showerhead , its simple installation, and its handheld heft.
It does go on sale often, but not usually for less than this.
Sonos Roam 2 for $139 ($40 off)
This matches the best deal price we've seen for our favorite espresso machine , which is snazzy and user-friendly.
PowerDetect Cordless Stick Vacuum
Our top cordless vacuum has good value for the price, with three cleaning modes, 70 minutes of run time, and a bendable design.
This tiny espresso machine makes a mean shot, and it even has a built-in steam wand for frothing milk.
It's our top pick for under $500.
This solid little soundbar could use a refresh, but it's reliable and might be the perfect fit if you're working within a cramped space.
The deal matches previous lows.
Google Pixel Watch 4 for $290 ($60 off)
The Google Pixel Watch 4 is the best smartwatch for Android , with a gorgeous domed design, reliable performance, and a legible display.
Health and fitness metrics are tracked accurately, from heart rate and blood oxygen to sleep, menstrual cycles, skin temperature, and more.
Charging is fast, the battery lasts for about a day and a half, and the watch is repairable.
We do suggest picking up a different strap , since the included option is ugly.
This deal price beats the previous low we've tracked by 10 bucks.
Our favorite Android earbuds are tiny, comfortable, and have excellent sound.
This price matches the best we've seen.
The best reusable water bottle doesn't go on sale very often.
Sip through the straw or unscrew the cap to chug.
It fits in cupholders, too.
This soundbar has a compact footprint but solid sound and rumbling bass thanks to the included wireless subwoofer.
SpeedStyle Pro Flex Hair Dryer System
This is a great dupe for the much pricier Dyson Airwrap.
The Shark hair dryer comes with four attachments and works quickly and efficiently.
Fitbit Charge 6 for $120 ($40 off)
The Fitbit Charge 6 was our top fitness tracker for over a year.
While it's since been replaced, we still think it's an option worth considering, though it was first released in 2023.
It's simple but effective, with long battery life, plenty of Google integrations, and a full suite of health metrics (though some are locked behind a paid subscription).
We do wish that it had fall detection, but if you just want a decent fitness tracker without forking over a ton of cash, it's a fine product.
This price comes within $20 of the lowest we tend to see.
Could it be cheaper?
Yeah.
Is it still a fine deal if you're in the market?
Also yeah.
This tri-band Wi-Fi 7 router has a generous amount of ports (and antennae), with an expansive range up to 2,600 square feet.
Want mesh instead?
This tri-band mesh Wi-Fi 7 router is affordable and easy on the eyes, though some features like advanced parental controls are locked behind a paid subscription.
This robot vacuum doesn't have a dust bag, replacing it with a canister like you'd find on a typical vacuum cleaner.
It rarely goes on sale.
This Hall effect keyboard has some of the best customization software offered for such a product, plus a touchpad and a multifunction button.
Branch Ergonomic Chair Pro for $399 ($100 off)
This new, high-tech pool-cleaning robot sports AI computer vision to spot debris, and this is the first and best real discount we've seen for it so far.
The best scent diffuser for pet owners also looks nice on a table.
Both sizes are a lot less expensive than usual.
(Note that Aera's brand-new Clarity functional-fragrance cartridges are on sale as well, on its website.)
We've seen this deal before, but none better.
It's the best price you can expect to find for our favorite smartwatch for kids .
This is a good price on the best travel headphones we've tested, but the deal has been around for a couple of months.
I'd like to see them drop even further.
LifeStraw Personal Water Filter for $13 ($7 off)
I don't know what to say here except that maybe you, too, have been looking into emergency preparedness for a variety of reasons.
I have been trying to bolster my bug-out bag beyond granola bars, lighters, and ibuprofen.
This personal water filter has sold for around $10 before, but I still think $13 is a good deal for a straw that filters out 99 percent of pathogens, bacteria, microbes, and other gross contaminants.
I might pick up another to keep in my car's glovebox.
We love these stylish power banks , partially because they're made with recycled materials.
They don't drop in price very often.
We've seen this discount before, but that doesn't make it less appealing.
It matches the historic low on our top robot vacuum .
This discount on the best Bluetooth speaker has been around for a few weeks, but it comes close to the historic low and beach party season is right around the corner.
This is a good deal on our favorite e-reader , which offers excellent value even at full price.
It packs a lot of features for how little you'll pay.
Nothing CMF Watch 3 Pro for $69 ($30 off)
This quirky-looking smartwatch is typically pretty affordable, and this deal brings it down to a match of the best price we've tracked.
It has a sweet retro design, and it plays well with both iOS and Android devices.
It has accurate tracking of your heart rate and other health features, outdoor workout tracking and summaries, a bright display, and a battery that lasts more than a week on a single charge.
There are also gesture-based controls.
Its sleep tracking could be a little more accurate, but it's hard to beat at this price.
This isn't the best deal we've tracked for the best AirPods , but it comes close.
If you need a new pair, these are the ones you want.
This pet hair remover is beyond easy to use, and while it goes on sale pretty often, this price is a good one compared to its historical cost.
This air purifier offers high value at a relatively low cost, especially thanks to this deal.
We recommend it for rooms around 200 square feet or smaller.
Kindle Paperwhite (2024, 12th Generation)
This comes within $10 of the best price we've tracked for the best Kindle .
If you know you want Amazon's ecosystem, or you don't need a color screen, it's worth considering.
The Worst Deals From the Amazon Spring Sale
Not all deals are created equally.
In fact, most of them aren't.
Here are a few of the worst, stinkiest, most insulting discounts we saw in our hunt for hidden gems.
Apple Watch Series 9 (Renewed) for $209 : First of all, this Apple Watch Series 9 is refurbished, and only comes with a 90-day warranty.
Secondly, a brand-new Apple Watch Series 11 is available for $300.
Technically, that isn't a great deal either, as it's basically been “on sale” for $300 since December.
But it's a heck of a lot better than paying $210 for a refurbished Apple Watch that's almost four years old.
Roku Streaming Stick Plus for $29 : Paying full price for a Roku streaming stick is like paying for a car wash during a downpour.
This deal isn't so much bad as it is constant, and I'm tired of seeing it.
You can wait for big shopping events like Prime Day or Black Friday to pay around $20 for this, or you can get it for $29 seemingly every other week of the year.
Google Nest Video Doorbell (Battery) for $140 : This discount could be significantly better (and has been recently).
These video doorbells are very handy and convenient gadgets, and they sell for $120 on a regular basis.
In fact, they were $120 for about half the year in 2025.
Unless you desperately need one, like, right now for some reason, just wait until it's $120 again.
Apple AirPods 4 for $149 ($30 off) : Price-wise, this deal isn't terrible, but these are Amazon's Overall Pick for “Apple headphones,” and we don't think anyone should buy the AirPods 4 .
The only exception to this rule is if you can't fit ear tips comfortably in your ears.
They have bad battery life, useless noise cancellation, and offer less value for the money than their competitors.
Tile Bluetooth Tracker for $19 ($5 off) : This was $15 two days ago.
It was also $15 throughout December.
I guess $5 isn't that much more to pay, but when the product is usually $25, a “discount” like this becomes a little bit offensive.
