We gave these earbuds a 9/10, but at their Prime Day price, they’re an 11/10

Simon Cohen

What I love about Prime Day is that, if you look closely, you can find huge discounts on products that are already so good, they don’t need any discount at all. A perfect example is Soundcore’s Liberty 3 Pro wireless earbuds. When they debuted at $170, I thought they were so good, I gave them a 9/10 rating in my review, and issued them Digital Trends’ Editor’s Choice award. But these ratings and awards are always a balancing act between price and performance, so now that these buds are 47% off for Prime Day, and selling for just $90? I’m going to 11.

My enthusiasm for this deal really is all about price. When you review as many wireless earbuds as I do, you quickly get a sense of what you can expect from different models at different prices, and your senses start to tingle when a product exceeds those expectations. If you read my in-depth review of the Liberty 3 Pro, you’ll see they had already managed to do that at $170. With an absolutely killer feature set that includes wireless charging, active noise cancellation (ANC), transparency, EQ and control customization, hi-res audio support, Bluetooth Multipoint, and wear sensors for music auto-pause, they provide more sheer technical prowess than some earbuds that cost twice as much.

At under $100, well, it’s just ridiculous how impressive that value is. But the Liberty 3 Pro wouldn’t have earned an Editor’s Choice if they didn’t perform, and they absolutely do. With two drivers per earbud, and impressive factory tuning, the sound quality is excellent. Huge amounts of bass are available should you want it (but thanks to plenty of EQ presets you aren’t stuck with it) and the detail on tap in the midranges is a delight. Highs are clear and precise, as they should be.

ANC and transparency might not be the best of any wireless earbuds, but they both perform admirably, blocking sound when it’s a nuisance and letting it in when you need it. Battery life is flexible — if you want to use ANC all of the time, you’ll get six hours per charge and 24 total with the case, but when you turn ANC off, that jumps to eight and 32, respectively — plenty of time for a full day and then some.

They’re a bit bigger than some other wireless earbuds, but with their included collection of wing tips and eartips, most folks should have no problem getting a comfortable and secure fit, whether for casual use or even for working out, thanks to their IPX4 protection from water and sweat.

So if you’re on the hunt for a great Prime Day deal on a set of wireless earbuds, I can’t think of a better option than the Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro.

Amazon's newest event, the Prime Early Access Sale, ends tonight, which means now is the last call for all the Prime Day Keurig deals. This event features a plethora of holiday-themed deals for shoppers looking to get a head start. Think of the Prime Early Access Sale as picking up exactly where Prime Day left off, and it signals the start of the holiday shopping season. The deals are likely to be similar to many of the Prime Day deals we saw earlier this year. For a small taste, you can always check out Walmart's October Rollbacks events, which is basically a Walmart Prime Day sale in disguise.
There are still many opportunities to save on all of the most sought-after small kitchen appliances, not the least of which are Keurig coffee makers. Keurig is the mastermind behind the easiest single-serve coffee makers on the market, and best of all, Keurig offers coffee makers for every size of household as well as pods filled with every warm or iced beverage you could possible imagine.
Most importantly, be sure to sign up for Amazon Prime if you aren't already a member, as these deals are only available for Amazon Prime members. Otherwise, we've assembled a list of some of the best Prime Day Keurig deals to shop today, which you can check out below.

This top-rated 500GB portable SSD is 21% off for Prime Day
The Samsung T7 Portable SSD connected to a tablet.

The highly rated Samsung T7 portable SSD is 21% off from Amazon in the ongoing October Prime Day, or what's officially known as the Amazon Prime Early Access Sale. Accessories like portable drives are often overlooked whenever there are Prime Day deals, but their importance in this digital age can't be overstated. If you don't have one yet, or you want to upgrade from a low-capacity drive, you should take advantage of Amazon's $20 discount for the 500GB version of the Samsung T7 portable SSD, which makes it more affordable at $75 compared to its original price of $95.

Why you should buy the Samsung T7 Portable SSD
The Samsung T7 portable SSD is rated 4.8 out of 5 stars on Amazon, with 87% of customers who purchased the product giving it a 5-star rating. That's fairly hard to accomplish, but not surprising as Samsung is one of the premiere brands in the electronics and computing industries. This portable SSD is another home run, as it's capable of transferring files nearly 9.5 times faster than external HDDs. It can read at a speed of up to 1,050 Mbps and write up to 1,000 Mbps, so the days of having to wait for a long time when accessing or transferring files will be over.
