There are many solid Bluetooth trackers for iPhones that tap into Apple’s expansive Find My network. Some are thin, some are a bit chunkier. And, evidently, some look like tiny soccer balls. Ugreen’s FineTrack 2 glows in the dark, and it has a loud 110-decibel alarm when you need to find it. It’s just $14.99 at Amazon for Prime members (originally $19.99). Ugreen also sells it for $14.99 through its site.
Instead of offering replaceable coin batteries, like many trackers do at this point, the FineTrack 2 has a built-in, non-rechargeable battery that can live for up to seven years. Some may consider that a flaw, but it’ll be nice not to have to worry about replacing its battery for a long while. The ball-shaped tracker also features IP68 water and dust resistance, and includes both a short and long lanyard you can swap out at your leisure.
- Google’s Pixel Buds 2A, its latest entry-level wireless earbuds, are down to $109 at Amazon, B&H Photo, and Best Buy, which is their second-best price to date. They’re stacked with more features than their 2021 predecessor (not to mention cooler colors), including active noise cancellation, transparency mode, and spatial audio. That’d be enough to make them worth the sale price, but they also feature IP54 protection against sweat, and up to 20 hours of total battery life with the charging case. At $80 more, the pricier Pixel Buds Pro 2 deliver slightly longer battery life, a wireless charging-ready case, and loud noise protection. Read our review.
- Here’s another deal on headphones: Bose’s first-gen QuietComfort Ultra over-ear wireless headphones are available refurbished in black for $188 (originally $449, but regularly $329 new) at eBay. Notably, Bose is the seller here, and it claims the headphones are in “pristine, like-new condition,” and will arrive in new packaging complete with all accessories. The first-gen QC Ultra headphone are still spectacular when it comes to sound quality, comfort, and for canceling out sounds. The highlight improvements of the $399.99 QC Ultra (Gen 2) include slightly more battery life per charge, lossless audio over USB-C, and an improved transparency mode. Read our review of the first-generation model.
- Samsung recently debuted a fleet of gaming monitors, and it’s offering perks for early adopters. One of the most affordable options is the $899.99 27-inch Odyssey G8 G80HF 5K model. If you buy it now through Samsung, you can choose either a $200 Samsung gift card to use on a future purchase, a Music Studio 5 Wi-Fi and Bluetooth speaker, or the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro wireless earbuds as your free gift. Its specs are unique compared to other 5K monitors in that it can support 5K at up to 180Hz, or swap to 1440p at 360Hz (most 5K models top out at 60Hz). Plus, its 218 pixel density matches that of the Apple Studio Display and other 5K monitors. Oddly, though, the G80HF lacks a USB-C port for easily connecting a MacBook.
