Samsung’s M8 smart 4K monitor comes with a $100 gift card

Microsoft’s small, but capable Xbox Series S console is $30 off its usual price at Newegg. When you enter the code APRBRA338 at checkout, the price falls from $299.99 to $269.99 before tax. We’ve seen slightly better deals before, but regardless, if you’re a current or prospective Game Pass Ultimate subscriber, it’s like getting two months for free.

Just in case you weren’t aware, the Series S is little sibling to the Series X, and its features and power are, predictably, lesser. Notably, it lacks a disc drive, and it targets high frame rates at less than 4K resolution. So, it’s not the right console for a more discerning gamer who needs best-in-class performance. But it could be the perfect device for someone who needs a streaming device-meets-console.

If you’re a Costco member, you can snag Apple’s HomePod Mini in white, blue, yellow, or space grey for $79.99, which is $20 off the retail cost. This is in the same ballpark as the lowest price we’ve seen yet, though it’s not such a great deal for non-members. You can check out without a Costco membership, but it’ll add $4.75 (five percent of the cost) to your total.

While the HomePod Mini has smaller sound than the larger (now discontinued) HomePod, it has nearly all of the same features. You can make commands at Siri with your voice, and it can control your HomeKit smart devices.

Roborock’s E4 robot vacuum is on a deep discount at Amazon, selling for $199.99 after you clip the on-page coupon. This model was recently nominated as the “best robot vacuum on a budget” by The Verge’s smart home expert Jennifer Pattison Tuohy. In her testing, the E4 had an impressive run time of about 200 minutes, and it has four levels of cleaning, ranging from powerful to a light mode that isn’t too loud. It doesn’t have the self-emptying bin of pricier models, but the bin it has is generously sized.

Gee, robot vacuums are becoming affordable, yeah?
