      I sifted through Amazon’s discounts on earbuds to identify the Labor Day offers that feature reliable products at reasonable prices.

      While Amazon has numerous earbuds on sale, a red percentage badge doesn’t necessarily indicate a worthwhile buy. These six options are notable because they represent quality products, and the current prices make them more recommendable.

      **Apple AirPods Pro 3**

      The Apple AirPods Pro 3 are priced at $225, down from $249. While this isn't the largest discount available, they continue to be one of the most appealing premium choices for iPhone users. In our review of the AirPods Pro 3, we noted their excellent noise cancellation, alongside the improved fit and Apple-specific features that make them an ideal match for iPhone users.

      **Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds**

      The first-generation Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds are now $169, reduced from $299. Their primary strength remains their outstanding active noise cancellation, complemented by strong sound quality and a comfortable fit. Our review of the QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds revealed plenty of positives, although this price applies specifically to the White Smoke model.

      **Nothing Ear (3a)**

      The new Nothing Ear (3a) are currently available for $79 instead of $99, and Amazon has them listed as a limited-time offer. With features such as active noise cancellation, multipoint connectivity, and Hi-Res Audio support, they offer an unusually comprehensive feature set for under $100.

      **Sony WF-C710N**

      The Sony WF-C710N is reasonably priced at $88, down from $129.99. They provide effective noise cancellation, multipoint Bluetooth capabilities, and up to 30 hours of total battery life with the charging case. These are a great choice for anyone seeking reliable everyday earbuds without the higher price tags associated with premium models.

      **Shokz OpenDots One**

      The Shokz OpenDots One are on sale for $149.95, down from $199.95, offering a substantial $50 discount on one of the more unique open-ear options available. Their clip-on design keeps your ears clear, while our review highlighted their impressive bass, secure fit, and excellent battery life.

      **Bose Ultra Open Earbuds**

      The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are priced at $199, reduced from $299, making them the unconventional option among the group. Instead of sealing your ears, they clip around them, allowing you to remain aware of your surroundings. Our review found the distinctive clip-on design remarkably comfortable, especially for those who prefer not to have traditional earbuds inside their ears.

      A smartwatch capable of measuring actual blood pressure levels is set to be released soon, and it boasts a sleeker appearance.

      Huawei recently showcased its upcoming blood pressure watch, which moves away from the bulky designs that have characterized this category since 2021. The Watch D3 was unexpectedly revealed at the European Society of Cardiology Congress in Munich this week, just days ahead of its official launch on September 2.

      Apple is exploring continuous heart rate tracking for future Apple Watch models.

      This feature could offer Apple significantly more detailed all-day fitness, recovery, and wellness data.

      The Apple Watch has always monitored your heart during workouts, but Apple might be gearing up to extend this monitoring capability throughout the entire day. According to Bloomberg’s latest Power On newsletter, Apple is testing a feature that would allow the Watch to continuously gather heart rate data all day long. Currently, the sensor operates continuously during workouts, while readings taken outside of exercise occur at intervals based on activity. The new method would maintain workout-level heart rate monitoring all the time, potentially turning out to be a much more beneficial upgrade than it may initially appear.

      A revamped Apple Watch seems to be on the back burner.

      Apple seems to be taking its time with the next major redesign of the Apple Watch. While this fall’s Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 are expected to be rather minor updates, Apple is reportedly working on a substantial redesign that could be released as early as next year, although it may be delayed until 2028. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple is continuing to develop a reimagined Apple Watch while also preparing smaller updates for this year. This suggests that anyone anticipating a dramatically different watch in the next iteration may be let down, though some intriguing changes are still in the pipeline.
