Amazon Prime Day marches onward, and while there continues to be an abundance of deals spanning all price points and categories, most of them will cease to exist once the clock strikes midnight tonight. And while many of the steepest discounts in the world of tech are still reserved for premium headphones and TVs, there are still plenty of budget-friendly gadgets and gizmos on sale for those looking to pick up cheap(er) basics, fitness bands, or one of several AAA games for the Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X / S, or PlayStation 5.

The bulk of the sub-$50 highlights below are currently exclusive to Amazon Prime subscribers, though, in some instances, retailers such as Best Buy and Walmart are matching Amazon’s pricing. That means, regardless of where you choose to shop, there are still ways to save on an assortment of Verge-approved goodies.

The best earbud and speaker deals under $50

Sony SRS-XB100

$6037% off
$38

Sony’s adorable SRS-XB100 speaker offers USB-C charging, a built-in strap, and great sound for the price, rendering it a terrific travel speaker or home office companion. Read our review.

JLab Go Air Pop

$2532% off
$17

The JLab Go Air Pop are an affordable pair of wireless earbuds with eight hours of battery life (or 32 hours with the included charging case). The case also houses a built-in USB-A charging plug, so you’re never without a charging cable.

JBL Clip 4

$8038% off
$50

The last-gen entry in the JBL clip line of Bluetooth speakers retains the same integrated carabiner of its predecessor along with a more powerful speaker.

  • The JBL Go 3 is currently on sale at Amazon for $29.95 $31.53 ($20 about $18 off), which is just under $7 shy of its lowest price to date. The compact Bluetooth speaker offers up to five hours of battery life, a built-in loop, and IP67 waterproofing, which makes it a great picnic companion so long as you don’t need something with booming sound.
  • Apple’s basic USB-C EarPods are on sale at Amazon for $17 ($2 off), which is as cheap as they get. They’re nothing fancy, but now that the current iPhones use USB-C, you can easily take them from iPhone to iPad to MacBook with no fuss. And before you tell me that’s what Apple’s Handoff feature is for on its wireless AirPods, let me remind you that the mics on Bluetooth earbuds suck. Also, sometimes wired accessories are nice since you don’t have to worry about charging them.
  • Amazon is still offering an invite-only deal on the tan version of Sony’s WH-CH520, which drops them to an all-time low of $35.99 ($44 off); however, you have to be a Prime member and request an invitation to purchase them. The affordable headphones are rated to last an astounding 50 hours per charge and offer solid sound for the money, but you won’t find premium features like active noise cancellation and voice assistants, both of which are present on Sony’s pricier headphones.

The versatile subscription grants you one credit per month — which you can use to add any book you want to your Audible library — along with a rotating list of thousands of other titles.
  • Prime members can currently get a five-month subscription to Amazon Music Unlimited for free, which equates to a savings of $50. Non-Prime members are also eligible for the deal, but they’ll only get three months for free. The $9.99 monthly subscription grants you ad-free access to millions of podcast episodes and over 100 million songs.

  • The Super Mario RPG remake is currently matching its all-time low of $39.99 (about $20 off) at Amazon. The newer Nintendo Switch game is pretty straightforward as far as remakes go, with the same heartfelt story and Final Fantasy-style turn-based battles that made the original for the SNES so beloved. Only this time, it looks a whole lot better. Read our review.
  • The Nintendo Switch version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge is on sale at Amazon for $24.99 ($12 off).

$40
