Apple’s first-gen AirTags are just $17 a pop.

In a trend that we hope continues, the price of the first-gen AirTag Bluetooth tracker has sunk below $20 for the first time at Amazon and Walmart. Originally $29 (what you’ll currently pay for the second-gen model with claims of wider coverage and better accuracy), you can pick one up for $17.

The latest 2D Ninja Gaiden is 40 percent off this weekend.

The PS5 version of Dotemu’s latest retro-styled side-scroller, Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, is down to an all-time low of $23.99 ($16 off) at Woot when you use promo code GAMER. Sure, it might be campy and in need of a narrative overall, but I agree with The Verge’s Jay Peters when he says it absolutely rips.

Apple’s AirTag loops are on sale, so you can clip your tracker to your keys without overpaying.

Apple just announced a new AirTag, but you’ll still need an extra accessory to actually attach it to anything. Thankfully, Woot is taking $25 off Apple’s Leather AirTag Loop and $20 off Apple’s Leather AirTag Key Ring, selling them for $14.99. Although discontinued, both accessories are still solid picks that won’t wear down quickly with everyday use.

Back in black.

The black Apple Watch Ultra 2 is once again on sale at Best Buy through tomorrow, January 27th, in multiple configurations for $549 ($250), matching its Black Friday low. Apple’s last-gen smartwatch is no different than the model we reviewed in 2023, except, you know, it looks a lot sicker.
