Bose may be best known for its QuietComfort headphones, but the brand’s Bluetooth speakers have earned a great reputation for featuring great sound and build quality. The compact Bose SoundLink Micro — its most compact Bluetooth speaker — is currently discounted to $79.99 at Amazon, a pretty great discount from its usual $129 price tag.

Bose SoundLink Micro Portable Speaker (2nd Gen)

Where to Buy:

  • $129 $79.99 at Amazon

The rounded-off square speaker is almost pocketable, and easily slides into a purse or backpack; it’s just over four inches wide, 1.54 inches deep, and weighs less than a pound. It’s dustproof and waterproof, with an IP67 rating that matches the larger Bose Bluetooth speakers, and should last a full day at the beach or by the pool. The speaker will run for up to 12 hours on a single charge, and has convenient nylon strap for attaching it to your backpack or to your bike’s handlebars.


Other deals to consider

  • Best Buy has the 5TB Seagate Game Drive discounted to $169.99 (usually $219.99) until the end of the day. While it might seem odd to buy a non-SSD external drive in 2026, the price here is better than we’ve seen recently for this capacity. This model is compatible with computers as well as Xbox consoles, although only games predating the Xbox Series S/X era will be able to be played directly from the drive. Newer games will need to first be copied over to your console’s speedy SSD.
  • Woot is selling a variety of refurbished Apple Watch Series 9 units for as low as $189.99, depending on the configuration you choose. While they’re a couple of generations old, it’s rare to see recent models that low, and this is one of the older Apple Watches that will support watchOS 27. Woot is covering the devices with a one year warranty in case there are any issues down the road. Read our review.
  • Until the end of the day, you can grab an Ultraloq Bolt door lock for $74.99 from Amazon (usually $109.99). This Wi-Fi smart lock features both numerical and fingerprint sensors, giving you a few options for quickly unlocking your door. You can check the status and lock or unlock the door from your phone, and it integrates with other smart home platforms like Alexa, Apple Home, and Google Home.
