The Vankyo Leisure 470 mini projector, which is already pretty affordable at its original price of $130, dropped to below $100 following Target’s $35 discount in this year’s Labor Day sales. If you weren’t able to shop over the holiday weekend, the good news is that you can still get it for $95, but only if you hurry because it may return to its normal price at any moment. You can get this mini projector for even cheaper than usual by completing your purchase for it as soon as you can.

Why you should buy the Vankyo Leisure 470 mini projector

Let’s get this out of the way: The Vankyo Leisure 470 mini projector won’t challenge the best projectors in terms of features, which is understandable given its low price. It’s an excellent budget-friendly projector though, as it supports Full HD resolution with viewing sizes ranging from 39 inches to 250 inches. The recommended distance to the wall or projection screen is between about 4 feet and 27 feet, but feel free to consult our guide on how to set up a home theater projector if you want more tips on making the most out of the Vankyo Leisure 470 mini projector.

With a lamp life of up to 50,000 hours, the Vankyo Leisure 470 mini projector will provide fantastic value for its affordable price.

If you’re looking for projector deals that you can buy while on a tight budget, you should set your sights on the Vankyo Leisure 470 mini projector. Its sticker price is already cheap at just $130, but a Labor Day deal that’s still running brings its price down to just $95, for savings of $35.

The Sonos Ace wireless headphones were just released in June, so there hasn't been a lot of opportunities to buy them with a discount. That's why you shouldn't miss this rare chance from the Amazon Labor Day deals to get them for cheaper than usual -- they're down to $399 from their original price of $449. There's no assurance that the $50 in savings will still be available during the last minutes of the holiday though, so if you want to take advantage of this bargain, you need to drop everything else and complete your purchase for these wireless headphones right now.

Why you should buy the Sonos Ace wireless headphones
The Sonos Ace are the first wireless headphones made by the company that's a fixture in our roundup of the best soundbars, and they certainly delivered.

This AirPods Max Labor Day deal is the cheapest they’ve been since Prime Day

The Apple AirPods Max are down to only $399 from Amazon as part of the retailer's Labor Day deals, which is the cheapest that they've been since Prime Day in July when they were down to $394. You wouldn't want to miss this $150 discount on their original price of $549, so we highly recommend completing your purchase as soon as you can. It's not a good idea to wait until the last minute of the holiday, as stocks of the popular wireless headphones that are up for sale may be gone by then.

Why you should buy the Apple AirPods Max
It's no secret that the Apple AirPods Max are expensive (though Amazon's discount for Labor Day helps bring it within reach for more people), but they're worth it as "the most fun headphones ever" with excellent quality in terms of their build and sound. Their active noise cancellation is amazing in blocking external sound, while transparency mode will let you hear what's going on around you without having to take them off. They support personalized spatial audio for an immersive listening experience, and they can last up to 20 hours on a single charge with this feature and ANC and both enabled.
