There are plenty of good smartwatches out there, and Google\u2019s last-gen Pixel Watch 3<\/strong> is one of them. Right now, the 45mm \/ Wi-Fi model is available at Amazon<\/a>, Walmart<\/a>, and Target<\/a> for $199.99 ($100 off), which is a new low price and $150 less than the Pixel Watch 4<\/a>. In her review<\/a>, our own Victoria Song noted how impressed she was by the larger size\u2019s lengthy battery life, as well as how versatile a companion it was to Android phones, particularly Pixel devices. For example, you can use the watch as a remote for your Google TV, download offline Google Maps navigation routes, and create voice recordings that automatically sync and are transcribed on a Pixel phone.<\/p>\n

The Pixel Watch 3 recently received an overhaul, too, as Google rolled out an update to Wear OS 6<\/a>, which introduced a refreshed design and Gemini AI to the watch (our initial tests<\/a> show that it still has a long way to go before becoming vital). On the fitness and wellness side, the Pixel Watch 3 can track your activity, sleep, blood oxygen level, and heart rate. You can also use it to take an EKG from your wrist, if you feel the need.<\/p>\n

If you need to charge more than one device at a time, Anker\u2019s 2-in-1 USB-C cable<\/strong> will let you do that. It\u2019s a practical, inexpensive gadget we think you\u2019ll enjoy, and it\u2019s nearly matching its best-ever price at $16.99 ($9 off) at Amazon<\/a> (with Prime) and Anker\u2019s online storefront<\/a> (with code WSPDV22SVFBJ<\/strong>). One end of the cable plugs into the power adapter, while the other splits into two USB-C cables that can be plugged into different devices.<\/p>\n

You can use any USB-C power adapter with this cable, but you\u2019ll take full advantage of its peak power throughput with a 140W adapter \u2014 such as Apple\u2019s 140W USB-C Power Adapter, which is also on sale for $74.99 ($25 off) at Amazon<\/a>. The cable will automatically allocate how much power to send to both devices, but if you plug in two laptops, the first one that\u2019s plugged in gets priority.<\/p>\n

Microsoft\u2019s official Xbox Wireless Controller has held the top spot in our guide to the b<\/a>est Xbox controllers<\/a> for years, and now the black and white versions are selling for a new low of $39.99 ($25 off) at Amazon<\/a>, Best Buy<\/a>, and Target<\/a>. The wireless gamepad is comfortable to hold, and its buttons, triggers, joysticks, and D-pad feel satisfying to use. I\u2019ve used the one that came with my Xbox Series X for nearly five years, and it still feels new, with no dropped inputs or other signs of wear.<\/p>\n

It runs on a pair of AA batteries, which you can easily swap out. You can also purchase a rechargeable battery pack<\/a> for the controller if you prefer, but be mindful that it\u2019ll lose its charging capacity over time. Xbox\u2019s wireless controller costs as much on sale as many of our wired recommendations, and its wire-free design means you won\u2019t feel tied down when you use it.<\/p>\n
