Some of February’s best shopping comes during Presidents’ Day weekend, where we celebrate the Executive Branch with a Monday off and sales at a bunch of retailers. While we don’t think the right to low prices is explicitly written in the Constitution, you know these deals would have made Alexander Hamilton sing. Best Buy is having a huge President’s Day event with massive cuts on some of their most popular products, and here are five of the best offers you’ll find this long weekend.
Apple iPad Air 10.9″
The best mix of price and performance in a modern-day tablet
$449.99
at Best Buy
$599.99
Save $150.00
Rumor has it that Apple is going to be rethinking the entire line of iPads soon, but that’s a shame because we love the most recent iPad Air. In our review, we called it “the best choice in Apple’s tablet lineup—and a better bet than any Android tablet.” giving it an Editors’ Choice award. The Air is speedy like the more expensive iPad Pro, supports the second-generation Apple Pencil and weighs in at barely over a pound. This configuration comes with 64GB of storage and Wi-Fi connectivity, along with three free months of Apple TV+.
This model is a Best Buy exclusive and if you hop on it before the end of the day you can carve $300 off the sticker price of a massive screen with very nice performance. A minimal bezel construction with a thin frame gives you nearly edge-to-edge imagery and the picture quality is phenomenal, with solid contrast for deep blacks and colors that pop. Response time is also speedy, making it a good pick for console gaming. Good reflection handling and a midrange viewing angle round out the package. Getting a 4K screen this big for the price is a rare deal.
Bose is a trusted name in audio, and if you’re looking for a simple solution to dramatically boost the sound quality in your TV system, the SB 900 soundbar is the way to go. Featuring gorgeous design and high-end build quality, it deploys nine-driver sound for room-filling audio. It can connect to sound sources with two-way Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or HDMI eARC, and you can control it through the Bose Music app or through your choice of virtual assistants, either Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. Juicy price cut too.Not quite what you’re looking for? We’ve got more soundbar deals for you.
Sure, you can invest in a gaming laptop to handle all of your PC exclusives when you travel, but there’s just something more satisfying about playing them on a machine that does games and nothing else. The Asus ROG Ally is a Steam Deck-esque mobile gaming powerhouse that capably handles most modern titles. In our review, we gushed over its “slick design and lightweight build,” as well as noting its exceptional battery life. Being able to save $200 makes this competitive with a Nintendo Switch, which it easily overpowers.
These are some of the nicest over-ear headphones we’ve had the privilege to wear, and in our review we gave them an Excellent rating and said they “deliver excellent audio performance and support a strong array of Bluetooth codecs.” At their heart, a 42 mm transducer system brings you smooth, clear bass frequencies without distortion. We also said the active noise cancellation is competitive with other brands and they were comfortable to wear for long periods. Our only qualm was the price, so being able to shave off a hundred bucks makes them very attractive indeed.
