Most hardware prices have soared in 2026, and that includes a variety of Apple laptops, tablets, and smart devices. Thankfully, you can offset some of the increased costs on an Apple TV 4K by buying one refurbished through the company. The 64GB model is selling for $169, $30 lower than the new retail price. The upgraded model, with 128GB of storage and an Ethernet port, is also discounted to $209 at Apple, a $40 discount from the full price. Apple refurbished products are often close to like-new condition, and are covered by the same one year warranty as new products.

We reviewed the third-generation Apple TV 4K when it launched back in 2022, and were impressed by the performance and seamless integration with some streaming services, although others are still in their own dedicated apps. The device supports Dolby Vision and HDR10 Plus for excellent contrast (surpassing the quality you’ll get from a cheaper streamer, or even something like a PS5), and Siri for quickly finding your favorite shows and movies. Both the 64GB and 128GB models can work as a HomeKit hub for your other smart devices, but only the Ethernet model supports Thread.

“Alienware’s cheapest gaming laptop ever finally breaks $1,000. Configurable with up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 graphics, the Alienware 15 pairs a fast 15.3-inch, 165Hz, 16:10 display with a genuinely portable 4.85-pound build, no more bulky thermal shelf on the back. Upgradeable memory and 100W USB-C charging round it out, making it just as reasonable for class or travel as it is for gaming.”,

Other deals to consider
- This Energizer 3-in-1 15W magnetic charger is half off at Best Buy, bringing the cost down to just $20. With 15W for your phone, 5W for earbuds, and 2.5W for the Apple Watch, this single device can keep all of your devices charged up, and folds up neatly for storage or travel.
- Keep an eye on your front door and another room with a discount on this Ring Doorbell 2K and Indoor Cam bundle, which is currently $60 (usually $140) at Best Buy. The doorbell is the battery-powered model, so no need for drilling or wires, and it has live view and two-way communication, as well as night vision for looking at evening visitors or delivery people.
- Built-in TV speakers tend to be unimpressive, and even an inexpensive sound system like this Vizio 4.1 soundbar, currently discounted to $100.80 (usually $168) at Walmart, can make a huge difference in immersion. The kit includes a 30-inch soundbar, a pair of wireless surround speakers, and a wireless subwoofer, with Dolby Atmos support for spatial audio, a rarity at this price point.
