Thanks to AirTags, I can track my bags from drop-off to the plane to the luggage carousel. And even when the worst happens, and my bags end up in Orlando when I’m in Michigan (true story), I know where they are and how to find them. This price is just .50 above the lowest we’ve ever seen this 4-pack go for.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“First, we bought one Apple AirTag for my husband’s wallet. Then we bought a second one for his car keys,” said this repeat buyer<\/a>. “Now, we have a four-pack, which is cheaper, for our golf bags and checked roller bags.”<\/p>\n

If you don’t like that feeling of having something wedged in your ear and don’t need active noise cancellation, these buds are the way to go. How are they different from the previous generation? The shorter stem gives them a cleaner look, and the new quick-press controls mean no more fumbling to pause your tunes or take a call. Plus, they fit better and stay put, so you won’t have to keep adjusting them while you’re at the gym or running to catch the train.<\/p>\n

“I decided to upgrade from my AirPods 2 and I’m impressed!” a happy listener wrote<\/a>. “Sound quality is great! Wow! They don’t feel like they’re going to fall out of my ears and [are] very comfortable.”<\/p>\n

More than 10,000 Amazon shoppers snapped up these earbuds in the past month, so calling them a customer favorite is an understatement (they’re sitting comfortably in my ears as I write this). They come with more features than you might expect given the tiny package: active noise cancellation, transparency mode, USB-C charging and a snug, customizable fit.<\/p>\n

“The noise cancellation amazed me,” said this shopper<\/a>. “I have a window A\/C unit to cool my office, and when I put these in, I thought it turned off. It took me two or three times of taking them in and out of my ear to realize the headphones were eliminating the sound.”<\/p>\n

It’s been years since I stopped plugging my phone in at night, instead setting it down on a wireless charger that’s plugged in next to my nightstand. That said, some nights it isn’t sitting just right, and I wake up to a dead phone. Not so with a MagSafe charger. Not only is this one $43, but it’s just $10 more than the 1m long version, which means you won’t be stretching the cable just to plug it into the outlet. Need one that can fast-charge?
