Prime Big Deal Days runs through Oct. 9, but that doesn’t mean other retailers are going to let Amazon get all the cash. In fact, Target’s Circle Week is already here to deliver savings of up to 50% on a ton of products, including our favorite tech, through Oct. 12. Joining Target Circle is free, unlike Prime, giving users access to exclusive discounts. There’s also the subscription-based Target Circle 360 available for those who want unlimited same-day delivery, free two-day shipping, and more. Those who choose to enroll in the annual membership this week will get a $50 discount on their next same-day delivery order of $50 or more. Now, let’s get to those deals! By the way, you can follow our Live Prime Day Blog for the best and most up-to-date deals! And don’t forget to check out 100+ of the Best Prime Day Deals available right now!
Listening to music with the AirPods Max is always a great experience. In our review of the AirPods Max, we gave it an “Excellent” rating for audio performance, the high-quality active noise cancellation, and great design. You can also call for Siri by either holding down the control button or saying “Hey Siri” before issuing whatever command you want to give out. The main issue we had with this model was the price, but since they’re heavily discounted for Target Circle members, that’s no longer a problem.
The excellent Beats Solo 4 headphones are currently available at a 50% discount at Target right now. We appreciated the sound quality they deliver, as well as the fact that you can quickly access Siri without having to press a button. As noted in our review, “The headphones ship with a black zip-up pouch that doesn’t fully open like a hard-shell case—it’s closer to a dopp kit. The interior has two side pockets for the included USB-C-to-USB-C and 3.5mm cables, which you can respectively use for active and passive wired listening.”

The Amazon Echo Dot is a classic, delivering decent sound and Alexa in a low-price package. In our review, we gave this smart speaker an “Excellent” rating, noting that “motion sensors in the Echo Dot lead to additional ways of interacting.” Lightly tap the top of the speaker to play or pause songs, end calls, stop ringing timers, or snooze alarms.
HP Envy x360
16-Inch Touchscreen, AMD Ryzen 5, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD
$649.99
at Target
$849.99
Save $200.00
For anyone looking for an efficient and competent laptop for their everyday workload, the HP Envy x360 is a versatile solution. It’s a 2-in-1 laptop that easily swaps between roles, going from work support to hobby platform, allowing you to draw and sketch, for instance. With a 16-inch screen, an AMD Ryzen 5 processor, and 8GB of RAM, this laptop is a good solution for completing daily tasks. The 16:10 touch-screen display is also pretty great to use with creative tools, some light gaming, or streaming content. While we didn’t review this exact configuration, we did test the HP Envy x360 15.6-inch and found it delivered excellent performance.

Capturing hikes and bike rides is always fun when you have a GoPro with you, such as this one that’s now on sale. And it’s not just any model, but the GoPro Hero12 Black which we reviewed and found to be “Outstanding” and worthy of our Editors’ Choice award. “The Hero12 Black follows the action cam design formula to a tee. It’s sufficiently small to mount in tight spots, rugged enough to handle some abuse, and waterproof to 33 feet. A wide-angle lens makes it ideal for mounted point-of-view shots, and its image processing engine enables a narrower angle for vlogging, home movies, and snapshots. An 8:7 aspect sensor, a carryover from the Hero11, adds some flexibility for social media, as it lets you pull widescreen and vertical video from the same clip,” our expert summed up some of the things this camera can do. We’d also add that it has a great battery life, making it possible to record up to 70 minutes at 5.3K or over 2.5 hours at 1080p.

Target Circle members can get 50% off the Amazon Fire HD 10 right now, which is a fantastic deal for a fantastic budget-friendly tablet. In our review, we gave this tablet an “Excellent” rating and even our Editors’ Choice award. Our expert appreciated the tablet’s affordability, the good build quality and the decent display, as well as the fact that it supports an Alexa Echo Show mode which turns the tablet into a smart display. “The Amazon Fire HD 10 has a good build, a solid screen, and just enough power to browse the web, play casual games, read, and stream videos. You can connect your favorite headphones via Bluetooth or the standard headphone jack and get through most bus, car, plane, or train rides thanks to the long-lasting battery,” our expert noted.

We noticed a jaw-dropping discount on the Roborock S8 Plus robovac for Target Circle members and couldn’t help but share it with you. This robot vacuum delivers 6000 Pa suction power, which will be enough for both hard floors and carpets. But that’s not all: This model can also mop the floors, lifting them when encountering carpets so as not to wet them. The charging station also serves as a storage space for all the dust and dirt the robovac collects, allowing up to 7 weeks to dirt to collect in the bag. Make sure also to check out some other awesome robot vacuums we tested.

Getting a flip phone will certainly awaken many memories of the not too distant (but distant enough) past. The modern Motorola Razr, however, is a fashionable model that’s budget-friendly even without a discount. The special discount for Target Circle members, however, makes things that much more special. In our review of the Razr, our expert appreciated the bright display and the phone’s increased portability. “The phone performed admirably on our battery test, in which we stream an HD video over Wi-Fi at full brightness. It lasted 15 hours and 48 minutes, or approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes longer than the Razr+,” our expert also noted.

Having a power bank in your bag can help ease your mind when you’re on the go, especially if your phone’s battery tends to run out before the end of the day. This 5,000mAh Anker PowerCore on sale at Target might be just what you need. It quickly recharges your phone at 12W and has both USB-A and USB-C ports, so you can charge two devices at once.
Smart displays are great to have in a home. They allow you to control smart home devices, read recipes while you’re cooking, set up reminders and alarms, make phone calls. We reviewed the Amazon Echo Show 5 and gave it an “Excellent” rating, loving how inexpensive it is and how compact, as well as how loud it can get for a device its size. It doesn’t really deliver on the more subtle nuances of music, but that’s not really why you’re getting the Echo Show 5 anyway.
If you still have an older TV model with no smart capabilities or you just want to add new ways to stream everything from one place, then you’ll love this Roku Express discount at Target. We reviewed one of these streaming dongles and gave it an “Excellent” rating, appreciating how inexpensive it is and just how versatile it can be with access to such a wide range of streaming services. It’s fast and powerful, and it allows you to customize the home screen with your favorite services. Plus, it works with Siri, Alexa, or Google Assistant, so you can control it by voice.
