When IndyBest tech reviewer Alex put these cans to the test, he dubbed them the best for noise-cancellation in his wireless headphones guide. “Rumbling trains? Didn’t hear them. Chatter in the other room? Nope, didn’t hear it. Passing cars? Could not hear any,” he said. The sound quality blew him away, too, with tunes “sounding rich and melodious, with some real precision when it was needed”.

Voted the best budget option by our tester, the cleaner, with special technology that removes pet hairs from furniture and carpets, is even more affordable thanks to this deal that sees a saving of £90.

(Apple)

As well as having stellar sound and noise-cancelling, the AirPods Pro 2 feature the best battery life on any AirPods. “The case now includes Apple’s U1 chip, which means you can use the Find My app on your iPhone to locate it when you’ve misplaced it,” said tech critic David Phelan in his review. Unlike the AirPods 4, there are also touch controls on the buds themselves, so you can adjust the volume without having to take your phone out of your pocket, and there’s a MagSafe case with a lanyard loop for easy charging and storage. You can save £50 with this deal at Currys.

If you’re late to the air fryer party (where have you been?), this Ninja Foodi model has got to be one of the best. Appliance tester Lauren dubbed it her favourite dual-zone iteration in her guide to the best air fryers, wowing at the fact that both drawers can be active on different settings. She found this to be “very handy when cooking a whole meal” and added that “you can even sync the drawers to be ready at the same time”. Thanks to the Boxing Day discount, now’s the ideal time to give your chicken and chips a crispy upgrade.

Clean up with this £120 saving on a Dyson v8 absolute cordless vacuum. Arguably the best budget premium model you can buy, the v8 earned a spot in IndyBest’s tried and tested cordless vacuum cleaner round-up. “We did a double take when we saw the price tag on this vacuum, which has all Dyson’s distinctive style and hi-tech features for significantly less cash than the brand’s more recent vacuums,” tester Siobhan said. “Just like the priciest models, you won’t have any problem with this machine’s power, thanks to a digital motor that spins at up to 110,000rmp, and Dyson’s standard cyclone technology,” she added.

Dyson airwrap multi-styler and dryer: Was £479.99, now £399, Currys.co.uk

(Boots)

A cult buy, Dyson’s airwrap model is on sale with £80 off at Currys. The tool comes with six attachments for optimum styling, whether you’re creating super sleek looks or a bouncy blowout. “Despite looking complex, using it was super simple and straightforward,” Lucy said in her review. “It dried and smoothed hair quickly and easily, with minimal effort needed. And the round brush was also a welcome addition here too, as our tester loved using it to dry her hair for a blowdry-esque finish,” she added. The perfect treat to yourself ahead of the new year, the tool is complete with a sleek presentation case, filter cleaning brush and detangling comb.

Earning a spot in tech writer Steve’s review of the best electric toothbrushes, the Oral-B iO3 is the most affordable option in Oral-B’s premium iO range. Using the same quiet oscillating motor as the rest of the series, it delivers the same impressive cleaning performance at a fraction of the price. So, what’s the trade-off? The iO3 has fewer brushing modes, a shorter battery life, no LED screen, and skips the smart features. If you can live without those extras, it’s a steal at £49.95 at Currys.

Beats solo 3 wireless bluetooth headphones: Was £199, now £99, Currys.co.uk

(Currys)

A top brand for affordability and quality, the Beats solo 3 wireless headphones are not only sleek in design, but boast a high-tech specification – think 40 hours of battery life and spatial audio for cinema-like TV and film viewing. In his review of the headphones, tech pro Jasper noted how they isolate audio from the outside world when listening to music or podcasts. With regard to the sound quality, he praised “the distinction given to vocal frequencies.” With this half price discount, now’s your chance to secure a headphone upgrade for less.

Since this affordable Ninja air fryer entered my kitchen, meal times have never been easier. Proving that air fryers don’t have to dominate your kitchen counter space, this design is sleek and space-saving. Better yet, it comes with a 30 per cent discount at Currys. It also received rave reviews from tester Lauren, who noted that despite “using up to 75 per cent less fat than traditional frying methods, you still get a good crunch. Its generous 3.8l basket can fit a medium-sized chicken and allows you to air fry, roast, reheat and dehydrate”. What more could you want?

Ring video doorbell, 3rd gen: Was £99.99, now £69.99, Currys.co.uk

There’s a £100 saving to be had on this white Bosch series 6 model, which has a number of wash modes, including a “super quick” feature for when you’re running late and want a speedy 15-minute cycle. When IndyBest reviewer Pete Wise tested a similar Bosch series 6 model, what impressed him the most was the “iron assist” setting, which steams the laundry load inside the machine.

It’s reduced by around £100 right now and when coffee specialist Zoe reviewed its smaller iteration (the bambino), she was impressed. In her guide to the best coffee machines, she described how “the steam wand feels professional level, and lets you get into creating microfoams” – a feature shared with this, the duo temp pro.

Shark anti-hair-wrap cordless vacuum cleaner with pet tool: Was £399.99, now £229.99, Currys.co.uk

(Currys)

Reduced by £170, this Shark vacuum features the brand’s signature anti-hair-wrap technology, to help stop the brush roll from getting clogged while you’re cleaning.
