TL;DR
WIRED rounded up after-Christmas discounts on gadgets its reviews team has tested, highlighting items like an Anker 25,000-mAh laptop power bank, the Google Pixel 10 lineup, a Bruvi pod brewer bundle, and the Fitbit Charge 6. Many of the sales are limited-time offers and some require clipping a coupon on the retailer page.
What happened
WIRED’s reviews desk collected a set of after-Christmas offers on products the team has evaluated, aiming to help readers spend holiday cash or gift cards on gear the outlet has tested. The list features a high-capacity Anker laptop power bank reduced to $88, Google Pixel 10 phones discounted to around $599 for the base model, a Bruvi BV-01 pod brewer bundle at about $228 with a coupon, and the Fitbit Charge 6 at roughly $100 including six months of Fitbit Premium. Additional items on the roundup include a Hydro Flask standard-mouth bottle and Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 earbuds, each offered at reduced prices across multiple retailers. WIRED notes that some deals match prior sale prices and that particular coupons—such as a Pixel10 discount code—were intermittently available at the time of reporting.
Why it matters
- These are discounts on products WIRED’s reviews team has hands-on experience with, which may reduce risk when spending gift cards or holiday cash.
- Several deals match or approach Black Friday prices, offering a chance to buy flagship hardware at lower cost after Christmas.
- The selection covers multiple categories—power banks, phones, wearables, kitchen appliances, and audio—so readers can apply gift funds to a range of needs.
- Some offers require retailer coupons or limited-time availability, so timing matters for securing the advertised prices.
Key facts
- Anker Laptop Power Bank: listed at $88 (about 35% off its listed $135 price) with a 25,000-mAh capacity, up to 165W output to two devices, built-in USB-C cable that doubles as a carrying loop, an information display, pass-through charging, and roughly two-hour recharge time.
- Google Pixel 10 (base): advertised near $599, about $200 off; Pixel 10 Pro and XL also showed reduced prices. An on-page coupon (PIXEL10) produced the lowest tracked price but was not present at the moment of reporting.

- Hydro Flask Standard Mouth Water Bottle: offered at reduced prices (examples include Amazon pricing and direct Hydro Flask markdowns) and noted for durability, leakproof design, flexible handle, and dishwasher-safe components.
- Beats Powerbeats Pro 2: priced around $200 ($50 off list) across several retailers; the earbuds were highlighted for an ergonomic fit, noise cancellation, spatial audio, integrated heart-rate monitoring, water resistance, and compatibility with iOS and Android.
- WIRED cautioned that many of these sales are short-lived and that some coupon codes could return intermittently on retailer pages.
