    Need to connect two devices to the one HDMI port? Or split the one HDMI
    output to two different displays? The UGREEN HDMI switch has you covered, and is currently 46% off. It operates at up to 4K (3840 x 2160) resolution at 60Hz, or 1080P at 144Hz. View Deal

    If you need a new hairdryer, but don't require all the bells and whistles of
    a Dyson Supersonic or Shark Speedstyle, then this Remington Aero 2000 is a great option. For under AU$17, this Remington dryer packs a 2000W motor
    that's ideal for fast drying and styling if you're in a hurry. It comes with two styling attachments and has 3 different heat settings, including a cool shot for setting your blowout. View Deal

    Panasonic's Eneloops are widely regarded as some of the best rechargeable batteries available, so they're always popular when Amazon has a deal going. This one knocks the price down by a solid 35%, but that's still one of the best prices we've seen lately. They're also available for the same price in AAA size , but note that neither includes a charger. View Deal

    Apple AirTags might be the most popular Bluetooth tracker, but thanks to a mighty discount, this Ugreen alternative might be the better buy. It has
    Apple Find My certification which means iPhone users don't need to download
    a separate app for it. Plus, its built-in buzzer provides a very loud noise that helps you find your missing item. It's even designed to be easily attached to bags, pet collars and more. The full discount here is thanks to
    an extra 10% off that is automatically applied at checkout. View Deal

    There's no need to invest hundreds in a smart lamp. This little plug can turn any old lamp or appliance into a smart one. Simply plug your kettle (or whatever takes your fancy) into it, and you can then use the app or voice commands with Google and Alexa to control it. Plus, you can set timers,
    create schedules and more depending on what device you plug into this
    adaptor. View Deal

    This neat little charger doesnt take up much space and offers USB-A and USB-C ports, capable of fast charging most base-model phones from Apple, Google and Samsung. It wont achieve the maximum wattage requirements of fast charging on more high-end models (such as the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL at 37W, or the
    Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus/Ultra and iPhone 16 Pro/Pro Max at 45W), but its a handy travel solution. View Deal

    It's not unusual for 2K's NBA series to drop in price just months after release, and the most recent instalment isn't breaking the trend. It makes a perfect gift or a personal buy for any NBA fan. And sure, it's been hovering around the AU$30 mark for a while now, but this extra drop makes it a solid deal if you don't own it already. View Deal

    It may be a PS4 game but Red Dead Redemption 2 still looks beautiful, even though it hasn't been updated to take advantage of the PS5 (not to mention
    the PS5 Pro). This is one of the most lavish video game productions to date, with an epic 40+ hour narrative and a story that can rival the great
    Westerns. View Deal

    By now you probably already own GTA 5, and given it's sold over 200 million copies you're in good company. But just in case, you can grab it for PS5 or Xbox for one of the cheapest prices we have seen. If you've somehow never heard of GTA 5 at all, then rest assured there are plenty of good reasons why people are still buying it today. View Deal

    The B6 is the top-rated budget option in our best power banks buyers guide
    and outperforms much more expensive models. Ignore the listed RRP AU$29.99
    is the normal price, and while this isn't the cheapest we have seen, AU$25.49 is a decent discount.

    Need a larger capacity? The INIU B5 has a 20,000 mAh capacity and is
    currently 33% off on sale for AU$39.99. View Deal

    We haven't tested these buds ourselves at TechRadar and while you should take customer reviews with a grain of salt, an overly positive 77K user reviews on Amazon has to mean something. We've had plenty of experience with other Soundcore audio tech and rarely come away disappointed. If you want reliable Bluetooth buds on a budget, these are a great option. View Deal

    If you want a very compact torch, its hard to go past the SC13. Just 6.5cm long and only 65g, it's perfect for slipping into a pocket or clipping to a bag. Using turbo mode, it can put out an excellent 1,300 lumens (briefly) or run for hours at lower levels. It comes with a 18350 rechargeable battery (like a AA or AAA one), charges via USB, and includes a handy clip. View Deal

    Do you dislike carrying a charger cable or not trust yourself to remember it? This handy pocket-sized portable charger uses MagSafe tech to magnetically attach to your iPhone (12 or later) and charge wirelessly. The 5,000 mAh capacity is enough to bring most iPhones from 20% back to a full charge. View Deal

    Are you a heavy phone user who just can't seem to comfortably make their
    phone last throughout the day? This tiny device would be a very handy
    addition to your bag. While its 22.5W output isn't the fastest, the charger
    is so small that you can easily continue using your phone while it charges. View Deal

    This compact mid-sized power bank is a great option for fast charging your phone on longer trips where a smaller capacity power bank won't cut it. The T2055 is one of our top-rated options in our best power bank buyers guide,
    and is a sweet deal at this price. View Deal

    Outputting a maximum of 65W via either one of its USB-C ports (and a maximum of 22.5W via its USB-A port), this charger isnt just capable of fast charging top iPhones and Samsung Galaxy devices at the highest speed, its also worth considering as a laptop charger replacement with its compact size, provided you have a sufficiently capable USB-C cable and your laptop can charge via said cable. View Deal

    While we love the Ugreen option above, there's a reason that Samsung and
    Apple are leading the way for their respective audiences. If you have a Samsung phone (or any Android phone with a little fiddling), this discount makes it the best choice. It'll let you keep tabs on the location of whatever you attach it to and, critically, it isnt locked to the Apple ecosystem.

    The 4-pack is down to AU$87 , making them just under AU$22 each. View Deal

    If you're a uni student (or anyone else) who's always using several devices be it a phone, ereader, laptop or tablet this charger could be a lifesaver. It boasts two USB-C ports and a single USB-A socket, with fast 65W charging speeds. This isn't the cheapest it's been, but 42% off is never something to sneeze at. View Deal

    Always on the go and don't like using hotel ironing boards, or maybe you just don't trust yourself with an iron? Whatever the case, this handy little handheld steamer could be exactly what you're after. Its 100ml tank can
    handle one entire outfit. It guarantees no burns and promises to easily de-wrinkles even tougher areas like collars and cuffs. View Deal

    Most electric toothbrushes can be expensive, but this Sonicare Series 2100 is brilliant value at 52% off. It promises to remove up to three times more plaque than a regular brush without being too harsh on your gums. There's
    even a timer feature that you can use to know exactly how long you need to clean each part of your mouth. View Deal

    Already one of the best options for in-home security, this massive 52% discount is actually cheaper than what we saw during July's Prime Day sale. It's super simple to set up, letting you keep an eye on your home from afar with its 1080p video. Plus, there's a handy cover for when you don't want its eyes on you, too. This deal also comes with a 30-day free trial of Ring Protect, which you will need if you want to store old footage. View Deal

    It's almost summer, but we think it's always toastie season and it seems Amazon agrees. Whether you're whipping up a grilled cheese, trying out a new TikTok recipe or just frying off the burrito you bought to get some crunch, this non-stick sandwich press makes toasting easy. It can also make a pretty handy stovetop if you're cooking (eggs) outdoors. View Deal

    We only recently awarded its successor an impressive 4.5 stars in our JBL
    Clip 5 review calling it "an affordable portable speaker with fantastic sound". Now dramatically reduced, the Clip 4 also boasts plenty of value. Small enough to fit in your pocket, it boasts a 10-hour battery life and an impressive volume. It's also both water and dust proof. Whether you're listening in the shower or on the go, it's a great buy. View Deal

    The Echo Pop was down to just AU$29 during Black Friday 2024, but this is still a great price. If you want a simple speaker that you can control with your voice, this is it. Its compact size allows it to fit into most spaces, and its Alexa functionality lets you set timers, play tunes, and do more with voice commands. View Deal

    A lovely little discount on a very popular co-op platformer from the makers
    of It Takes Two. In this game, you and your partner travel through an epic narrative as Mio and Zoe, two writers trapped in a simulation of their imaginations after an attempt to steal their ideas goes terribly wrong. View Deal

    Want a trimmer that can handle your back and shoulders as well as your beard? This affordable 8-in-1 trimmer is a great pickup normally, but it's a winner at 34% off. It would make for a great gift. Plus, all the attachments are rinsable for easy cleanup and it'll last an hour on a single charge. View
    Deal

    The 1.0 model of this has been discounted massively right now and is at the cheapest price we've seen. This hair styler has received over 25K reviews on Amazon alone, with customers raving about the shiny, frizz-free blowouts that lasted for a whole week! View Deal

    the Legion Go S and the ROG Ally X. With a 100W USB-C cable for plugging into the handheld, this device offers an ethernet port, two USB-C ports, HDMI (4K@60Hz) and two USB-A ports. View Deal

    Looking for a little more from your kettle? You won't find much better than this attractive black option for less than AU$50. Not only will it boil quickly, but it has five preset boiling functions that will heat your water

    Have you ever driven off to begin a holiday, only to agonise over whether you actually turned the lights off?

Just plug it in like an HDMI cord and you'll be able to watch all the best streaming services on any TV you like. View Deal

    Oral-B's Pro 800 CrossAction may not offer more than one cleaning mode, but this electric toothbrush surpasses manual brushing with its rotating and pulsating head for superior plaque removal. It also includes a travel case
    and a replacement brush head. This offer matches what we've typically seen when the 800 CrossAction has previously been discounted and it's a solid
    deal. View Deal
