Top-rated Best Buy Black Friday deals in July
Apple AirPods 2nd generation
Apple AirPods are a favorite of the NBC Select staff, which is why we included them in our list of the best wireless headphones. I’ve used them before and can say they have great sound quality and are easy to connect to your phone. They also connect to the Find My app, which helps you find them if you happen to lose them. You can also use them to make calls without having to hold your phone.
Jabra Elite 10 Wireless Headphones
Average rating of 4.3 stars from 260 reviews at Best Buy
The Jabra Elite is also a staff favorite, and we included an earlier version of them in our list of the best wireless headphones. Most recently, the Jabra Elite 8 won the NBC Select Wellness Award for Best Wireless Earbud, in part because they have a great active noise cancellation feature. This newer version has ANC mode and is compatible with iPhone and Android.
Shokz OpenRun Pro sports open-ear headphones
Average rating of 4.6 stars from 3,072 reviews at Best Buy
Open-ear headphones are great for athletes who want to listen to music while running, but still be aware of what’s going on around them. Instead of going into your ears, these headphones clip around the back of your ear and rest near your temple, allowing you to hear music through vibrations. They’re lightweight and easy to wear on your ears while you’re on the move.
Jbl Tune 235NC True Wireless Headphones
Average rating of 4.4 stars from 1,094 reviews at Best Buy
Jbl’s wireless headphones have powerful sound quality, active noise cancellation, surround sound and up to 40 hours of battery life, according to the brand. They’re water and sweat resistant, according to the brand, compatible with the Jbl app, and you can use them to make calls in addition to listening to music and podcasts.
Samsung 27” Odyssey FHD IPS 240Hz G-Sync Gaming Monitor
Average rating of 4.8 stars from 1,936 reviews at Best Buy
This monitor makes it easy to create the right entertainment setup for gaming and more. It has an ergonomic stand to make sure it doesn’t accidentally topple over, an FHD resolution display and an automatic source switcher so you can seamlessly transfer between devices that are connected to it. The screen width also makes the gaming experience more comfortable as you can see hidden scenes in the game settings. It also comes with an HDMI and power cable.
HP Envy 14 Wide Ultra Xga Touchscreen Laptop
Average rating of 4.7 stars from 115 reviews at Best Buy
This touchscreen laptop from HP is both a laptop and a tablet all-in-one. In addition to functioning as a laptop, the screen detaches for more portable use. It has fast processing power that makes it easy to get work done efficiently, play games, watch movies and read e-books, according to the brand.
