Ladies and gentlemen, the weekend deals! While some of us on the East Coast may be busy shoveling snow this Saturday morning, we hope many of you are having a restful weekend chock-full of deals and discounts.
Kicking things off on the deals front is Logitech’s StreamCam, which is currently on sale in its graphite colorway at Amazon for $108. That’s about $62 off the regular price of this excellent webcam, one we consider to be the best webcam you can buy in terms of image quality. The StreamCam is Logitech’s flagship 1080p camera and is able to achieve 60 frames per second, allowing for a smooth, crisp look. The Capture software can also keep you centered in the frame, much like the Center Stage feature found on Apple’s newer iPads, and the compact webcam can record in either landscape or portrait mode, a feature that makes editing clips for mobile that much easier. It doesn’t go on sale too frequently, however, and today’s price is only a few dollars shy of its all-time low.
The Beats Fit Pro are a new dark horse in the world of true wireless earbuds. While these days we often associate Apple-owned Beats with fitness-focused alternatives to the de facto standard AirPods line, the ANC-equipped Beats Fit Pro offer a comfy fit and outclass the pricier AirPods Pro in audio quality. Their only downsides are a clunkier case that does not offer wireless charging, and their tendency to not go on sale as much as the AirPods Pro. Well, that and the fact they still work a bit more seamlessly with iOS than Android.
Today, you can get the Beats Fit Pro with a $20 gift card at Amazon for $199.99, the full retail price. That may not be as good as last week’s raw sale, which saw the earbuds discounted to $153, but it’s a solid deal nonetheless. Read our review.
The Roborock S6 MaxV is a robot vacuum and mop with a solid feature set that includes AI-based obstacle avoidance, up to 180 minutes of runtime, programmable no-go zones, and integration with Amazon’s Alexa. Roborock’s top-of-the-line model normally sells for $750, but it’s currently discounted to $460 at Amazon and Walmart (be sure to clip the on-page coupon on Amazon).
We have not tested this exact model, but our resident smart home reviewer Jennifer Pattison Tuohy recently found a lot to like in its flagship counterpart, the Roborock S7 Plus. The latter vacuum sells for $950, so the S6 MaxV promises many of the same features — suction capacity, lidar navigation, tank size, etc. — for almost half the price. The S6 lacks the auto-empty dock found on the S7 Plus, but if your home is littered with toys and other potential obstacles, the MaxV might be the better bet.
If you’re a PC gamer, the two biggest digital storefronts are both offering discounts worthy of your perusal right now. Both Epic Games and Steam are running Lunar New Year sales, offering various savings across a wide swath of titles. Steam’s sale runs until 1PM EST / 10AM PST on February 3rd, while Epic is extending its sale through February 9th.
Additionally, you can once again get a $10 coupon from Epic to use on any full game purchase over $14.99. That means you can get new titles like Sony’s excellent God of War PC port for $39.99, or fan favorites like Disco Elysium: The Final Cut for just $5.99. To take advantage of the coupon, however, you have to subscribe to Epic’s newsletter and wait for the coupon to arrive in your inbox, which can take up to 24 hours.
Other great deals happening right now
- The second-gen Google Pixel Stand is finally here, and our own Allison Johnson reviewed it and found it to be a fine charger if a bit pricey for what it offers. Thankfully, if you own an older Pixel 3, 4, or 5 that cannot take advantage of the new charger’s higher wattage output, you can currently get the first-gen model for $28.99 ($50 off) at Woot.
- Pokémon Legends: Arceus, a Nintendo Switch title that represents a refreshing twist on the classic Pokémon formula, is already on sale at Amazon for $54.99 ($5 off). Read our review.
- Philips Hue bulbs often see steep discounts, but you don’t always get a deal on the brighter, 1,100-lumen bulbs. Right now, Costco members can pick up a four-pack of the multicolored, 75W-equivalent smart bulbs for $119.99 ($30 off).
- If you like the idea of wirelessly charging your phone (slowly) by resting it on an adorable Pikachu, this Pokémon-themed wireless charger by Madcow is $47.99 ($12 off) at GameStop.

- Apple’s second-gen AirPods are on sale at Amazon with the wired charging case $99.99, nearly matching their price to date. Although they’re now considered the entry-level model, they still offer great wireless performance, reliable battery life, and surprisingly detailed sound. Read our review.
