It’s the last day of Amazon’s week-long Big Spring Sale, and while the event has mostly focused on things like apparel and outdoor goods, it still does include a few noteworthy deals on electronics. We’ve been highlighting the best of those across Engadget, but if you’re on a tighter budget, we’ve also dug up a few decent discounts on gadgets and services we like that are available for less than $50. As a reminder, you don’t need to be an Amazon Prime subscriber to see most of the price drops.
Best Amazon Spring Sale deals under $50
It’s a couple years old, but the Soundcore Space A40 continues to lead our guide to the best budget wireless earbuds thanks to its effective active noise cancellation, comfy fit, robust feature set and pleasingly warm sound. Just be aware that it isn’t the best for phone calls and can’t auto-pause when you remove an earbud. We’ve seen this discount several times in recent months, but it’s only about a dollar more than the lowest price we’ve tracked. Also at Anker.
Anker PowerConf C200 for $48 ($12 off MSRP): The PowerConf C200 is our favorite webcam for those on a tighter budget due to its crisp video quality, easy setup, solid microphones and built-in privacy cover. Its USB cable is on the shorter side, and it can’t match the overall accuracy of our top pick, but it’s still a clear upgrade over a built-in laptop camera for a much lower price. This is another deal we’ve seen numerous times in the last year, but it’s as low as the camera usually goes. Also at Anker.
Anker 525 Charging Station for $30 ($36 off): We recommend this reliable desktop charging station in our remote worker gift guide. It can’t provide the absolute fastest charge to your smartphone or laptop (topping out at a quick enough 67W), but it packs four USB ports — two USB-C, two USB-A — and three AC outlets in a frame that’s small enough to fit on a crowded desk. This deal ties the lowest price we’ve seen. Also at Anker.
Lexar
The Silver Plus is the top recommendation in our guide to the best microSD cards. It consistently delivered the fastest transfer speeds of any UHS-I card we’ve tested, including several models that typically cost extra. It’s also backed by a lifetime warranty. This deal has technically been live for a couple weeks, and it’s a few bucks higher than the 512GB version’s all-time low, but it matches the best price…
