Anker’s Soundcore Liberty 5 Procame out swinging in May with incredible call quality, something that competing ear buds have struggled to get right. They’ve become part ofour reviewer John Higgins’ rotation of earbudsfor more than just taking calls; The Liberty 5 Pro have fantastic audio once you make some tweaks in their app, and they stand out thanks to an IP55 rating and LDAC high-res audio codec support on Android.

What’s more, they’re typically cheaper than the competition at $169.99, but you can snag them for $149.99 atAmazon,Best Buy, and atAnker. They come in four colors (black, blue, white, pink), and include a screen-equipped charging case that lets you make adjustments to active noise cancellation, sound profiles, speak-to-chat and enabling Dolby Atmos head tracking. Your mileage may vary with the usefulness of the case, but it’s nice not to have to use the app for quick tweaks.

I’ve been eagerly awaiting any sort of deal on the Liberty 5 Pro since John’s review dropped. Clearly, Anker caught wind of its success and kept them locked at $170 for months (not even a small price drop during June’s Prime Day sale). What could have lead to the price drop? Likely the debut of theAirPods 5that start at $129 but have a more feature-rich version that’s $20 more — the same current price as Anker’s Liberty 5 Pro.Read our review.

Here are three more great deals

Those shopping for a battery-powered video doorbell may want to consider thesecond-gen Ring Battery Doorbell Pro, which is steeply discounted atWellbotsthanks to an exclusive offer code forVergereaders. Currently $249.99 at Amazon, the 4K-enabled doorbell with 10x digital zoom is $149.99 with code100VERGERINGused at checkout. This price, frankly, spanks the previous lowest price of $179.99 at Amazon we saw in late August. You can read more about Ring’s latest generation of battery doorbellsin our coverage. But put simply, they’re sleeker, more capable, and still come with a removable, rechargeable battery.
I’m hyped forControl Resonant, the follow-up to Remedy’s brilliantControl. It launches on September 24th, and you can get $12 off Steam preorders atNewegg. The game will debut for $59.99, but the codeCNTRLXVused at checkout knocks it down to $47.99, which is the best price I’ve seen. It’s not tough to find the game at other key sellers for around $50, though. While it’s a direct sequel, it’s also the latest addition to Remedy’s connected universe that canonically includesAlan Waketitles.Here’s our hands-on from Summer Game Fest.
While we’re on the topic of games,we recently coveredthat Walmart was discounting preorders for the physical version ofThe Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Timeremake for Switch 2. Well, that also extends toAmazon, which is selling it for $59.99, a discount you’ll see at checkout. The cartridge version typically costs $10 more than digital —a change that Nintendo made earlier this year— but both retailers have a reputation for eating the price hike during the preorder phase for Nintendo Switch 2 titles.
