@theo: Weirdest Amazon Prime day to d...

Weirdest Amazon Prime day to date. Front page is full of absolute slop. Had to spend hours digging and filtering to find the best deals (thank you Codex)

Dropping best deals I found here for y'all. I personally bought or already own every product I share here.

13" MacBook Air M3 (16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) - $799 ($500 off)

This is an insane deal for a pretty powerful MacBook. Similar price to the Neo, but a much better machine with way more RAM.

ASUS ROG Strix 32" 4K 240Hz OLED Monitor - $829 ($270 off)

Probably the best gaming monitor on the market. Sadly still not a tandem OLED (still waiting impatiently).

USB-C is only 15w so not good for "one cable" on a laptop.

geni.us/94Crlmj

Samsung 990 Pro 2TB NVMe SSD - $370 ($20 "off")

I hate that this is a "deal" when I was buying 4tb SSDs for half this price before 🙃 Still probably the best you're gonna do for awhile

geni.us/2AYQN

Samsung T9 1TB Portable SSD - $180 ($70 "off")

If you didn't hoard these before the RAM Crisis™, this may be your last chance. I got a bunch a year ago and I'm so thankful I did.

I prefer t7 (non-shield) for attachments tbh - this is better deal tho

geni.us/EwCEu

DJI Osmo Pocket 3 - $378 ($121 off)

Only super-portable camera that compares to iPhone for on-the-go video recording. I spent $1,000 on mine during the shortage. This is an insane deal.

geni.us/BFjX

Apple Watch Series 11 46mm - $309 ($120 off)

Turns out my Series 8 is officially losing support already? wtf apple. I was gonna rot on WatchOS 26 but then I saw this was basically $300 so wtf why not

geni.us/CbAfc

Apple AirPods Pro 3 - $179 ($70 off)

I preferred the 2's. iOS 27 has EQ now, so I no longer prefer the 2's.

Best headphones ever made. It hurts me to say this as the owner of multiple $1,000+ headphones. They are so good and convenient. (I bought two)

geni.us/jOqV

Nothing Ear Wireless Earbuds - $73 ($76 off)

These are good because audiophile legend (and friend) DMS forced Nothing to fix them. They sounds pretty good. Insane for this price.

geni.us/WRFPpM

DJI Osmo Action 4 Essential Combo - $169 ($80 off)

Missed this on my first pass. 4k 120 at good quality on something this small w/ good battery life is an insane deal. Great to have around if you ever need to record something. Front screen is dope too.

geni.us/VRNrC58

Dyson V15 Detect Pro Cordless Vacuum - $535 ($315 off)

This vacuum changed my life. I am not exaggerating. I am a better roommate and person as a result of buying it.

geni.us/XI9W

Dyson AM07 Bladeless Tower Fan - $230 ($170 off)

I hate how good Dyson is at making things that require "fans". This thing is so cool. Makes me feel like I live in the future. A slightly less hot future.

geni.us/4vkAAD

Anker 25,000mAh 165W Laptop Power Bank - $91 ($29 off)

See where it says "purchased four times" at the top there? I bought it for 3 friends. It's that good.

According to julius, it is "annoyingly convenient". Great for Codex users with bad battery life

geni.us/7ppR

UGREEN 25,000mAh 145W Laptop Power Bank - $60 ($50 off)

Got this 3 years ago and it still doubles the battery life of my Macbook. Great deal to grab and toss in your bag for emergencies.

(I think you should spend the extra $30 for the anker tbh)

geni.us/gUPJ8hh

Anker 140W 4-Port USB-C Charger - $60 ($30 off)

You can never have too many 140w chargers. This one shows power draw too so you can know when your cables are broken (weirdly useful)

geni.us/AEP65

Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro - $320 ($80 off)

My roommate bought this.

"but why does it say purchased twice"

I liked it so much I stole it when he moved out, so bought him a new one. Then I bought one for my family for when I visit them lol.

geni.us/YEQYZ

That's the best I could find for now, will update if I find more

There's a few good deals on Hisense TVs if you want something under $1k

I would personally spend a bit more and get an LG C6E or G5 on sale somewhere else

LG C5 is great and is on sale for $1199 at Best Buy

Personally, I have been waiting for real quality tandem oled panels with good tuning, and the LG G6 was the first to meet my bar there. It is $2999 and is like 5% better than C5 but I care too much.

Been rocking my CX since 2020. She's retired tomorrow 🫡

Oh shit this is an underrated one. GL iNet's KVM.

HDMI + USB C to control any computer remotely. They also have a $30 "finger bot" that will press the power button for you. Super helpful for remote agent PCs. I have 3.

geni.us/PFw0Fi

GMKtec mini pc with 32gb ram 2tb ssd for $750 (over $200 off)

Man this one hurts a little. I bought the 1tb for $740 last week and it arrived yesterday. The barebones (no ram no ssd) version is $400, so you're paying $350 for the ram and SSD. The SSD is worth that much alone

Great for agents on linux (I am so happy to be moving off my Mac Mini you have no idea)
