When you think of Memorial Day sales, you probably think of mattresses and other home goods. And while those items are definitely discounted, now is also a good time to purchase tech. Personally, I'm not buying anything right now unless it's discounted—and fortunately many of our top picks are. Whether you're shopping for a power bank, a new pair of headphones, or some other gadget, I've rounded up the best early Memorial Day deals for your perusal. We'll update this article again as we get closer to Memorial Day on May 26.
Check out our buying guides for more recommendations, including the best headphones, the best laptops, and the best cheap phones.

The Sony WH-1000XM5 have a very frustrating name, but they're the predecessor to our favorite wireless headphones, and they're still an excellent pick if you don't want to shell out for the WH-1000XM6. They do fall to this price pretty frequently, but if you're in the market for over-ear headphones, they're hard to beat. They're comfortable, portable, lightweight, and stylish, and they'll make your music sound great no matter what you like to listen to.

I did not even know they made separate Bluetooth speakers for bikes, but this is the best one, according to former WIRED reviewer Parker Hall. At less than $50, I am probably going to buy this as an end-of-school gift for my teen son. —Kat Merck

Shargeek 170 Power Bank
$169 $119 (30% off)Amazon
WIRED reviewer Simon Hill ranks this as the best-looking power bank due to its ’90s throwback clear design. It reminds me of a cyberpunk Toblerone bar, but Simon reports that it packs some legitimate power with a maximum output of 170 watts, a 24,000-mAh capacity, and an IP66 rating water-resistance rating. It supports Power Delivery 3.1, Quick Charge 4.0, and PPS and can fast-charge three devices simultaneously. —Kat Merck
