Ambient Weather WS-5000 Weather Station for $170 ($30 off)
The Ambient Weather WS-5000 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) is an excellent gift for the dad who loves to talk about the weather. This station shows everything from daily rainfall to the current UV index, with the kind of intensive precision only a father could love. You can also pick up a ton of different accessories to measure things like humidity, detect leaks, check your fridge efficiency, and more.
Sony WH-1000XM5 Headphones for $298 ($100 off)
This deal comes around quite frequently, but it's a match of the best price we've seen on some of our favorite headphones. The Sony WH-1000XM5 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) have wonderful overall value, with frankly excellent noise cancellation and sound. They're no longer the newest addition to the lineup, but this pair is still fantastic—lightweight, comfortable, and sleek-looking with the user experience to match.
Nextbase 622GW Dashcam for $300 ($100 off)
The Nextbase 622GW is our very favorite dashcam. This deal gets you the base model that records the front-end view of your car, and it's been on sale for a couple of weeks. The camera is easy to mount and can record video in 4K at 30 frames per second, and it offers clear views of license plates and the vehicle's surroundings. It's got solid night vision and image stabilization. There's also a companion app with options for Alexa-based voice support, video review, and subscription-based SOS alerts in case of an accident. (Though Dad's smartphone probably has crash alerts, too, so consider those options before shelling out for another subscription.)
Sonos Roam 2 Bluetooth Speaker for $134 ($45 off)
The Sonos Roam 2 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) is the best smart Bluetooth speaker. It's dust- and water-resistant, has 10 hours of listening time, and is about as big as a 16-ounce beer can. It has fantastic sound and USB-C charging, and it won't take up too much room when Dad is toting it to tailgates.
Beats Pill Bluetooth Speaker for $100 ($50 off)
Maybe your dad doesn't need a smart speaker like the Sonos mentioned above. In that case, check out the Beats Pill (8/10, WIRED Recommends). This feature-packed Bluetooth speaker is available in several discounted colors. It has fast pairing, a built-in speakerphone, and the ability to charge other devices. It also has Beats' Fast Fuel feature, meaning 10 minutes of charging gets Dad five hours of playback time (a full charge gets him 24 hours of battery life).
JBL Clip 5 Bluetooth Speaker for $50 ($30 off)
And finally, for a super-portable Bluetooth speaker option, check out this discount. This speaker has a built-in carabiner, making it perfect for clipping to a camp chair, a belt loop, or a cooler handle. It sounds solid and has on-board controls, plus 12-hour battery life. It's also durable, with dust and water resistance, and it comes in several Dad-approved color schemes.
Garmin Approach S12 Golf Watch for $150 ($50 off)
If Dad likes hitting the links, we recommend this golf watch, and this price is a goodie. It's comfortable to wear and easy to use, with foolproof buttons and seamless setup using the companion app for Android or iOS. It has GPS data for over 43,000 courses, and it can record your score as well as provide range tracking for how far you're hitting the ball or how far away hazards and doglegs are.
Nothing Ear (a) Earbuds for $89 ($20 off)
The Nothing Ear (a) earbuds (8/10, WIRED Recommends) are the best earbuds for most people. They're super stylish, with a sleek clear charging case, and they also have great sound and decent noise cancellation. They're also comfortable to wear and have super intuitive controls. Combined with the affordable price tag, it's hard to find a better pair for the money—especially with this sale price.
Soundpeats Capsule3 Pro+ Wireless Earbuds for $80 ($20 off)
The Soundpeats Capsule3 Pro+ (10/10, WIRED Recommends) are some of our favorite AirPods Pro alternatives. They offer fantastic sound for the money, with clear highs and dynamic bass. It boggled the mind of our reviewers that these headphones were as affordable as they are, and with the sale price, this deal is a no-brainer if you're on the hunt for the best sound at the lowest price.
Anker 30-Watt Portable Charger for $13 ($12 off)
This specific gadget isn't in our list of the best portable chargers, but we generally like Anker gear, and the price is too good not to mention. The 10,000-mAh capacity and 30-watt charging means it's capable of topping off most phones very quickly. It's also small at 5.4 inches, and there's a built-in USB-C cable so Dad doesn't need to worry about finding a cord.
Home and Outdoor Deals
Netvue Birdfy Plastic Smart Bird Feeder + Solar Panel for $135 ($110 off)
This is our favorite smart bird feeder. We've linked to the version with the solar panel included, but the version without the solar panel is also on sale for $120 ($80 off). Both have been on sale for a couple of weeks. We think the solar panel is worth it, since having to bring the feeder inside to recharge it just adds another chore to the list. The feeder is durable and easy to clean. The camera will send smartphone notifications when a bird is feeding, and it has AI recognition that (usually) correctly identifies the species. Note that the AI recognition does require a separate subscription; you can choose to pay for it ahead of time by purchasing that bundle and save some cash in the process.
Aviron Victory Treadmill for $2,399 ($1,100 off)
Another leftover from recent Memorial Day sales, the Aviron Victory Treadmill (8/10, WIRED Recommends) makes running fun. We haven't seen a better discount yet. The screen provides access to games and shows, and the deck is nice and low to the ground, so it's easy to step on and off. The membership that grants access to the fun content costs $29 a month or $288 per year, and there are also optional $299 loadable weights to add strength training. But if you're OK with the yearly costs, this is a good choice for making home workouts more enticing. Check our guide to the Best Treadmills for more.
Pelican Elite 20-Quart Cooler for $166 ($34 off)
I'm in the process of reworking our guide to the best coolers, but this Pelican option is still a good one. It's durable and waterproof, and the tall, narrow design and small footprint make it ideal for road trips. It also features four cupholders and raised rubber feet so it can double as a small drink table while camping or at the beach.
Celestron 8x32 TrailSeeker Binoculars for $319 ($40 off)
The Celestron 8x32 TrailSeeker (8/10, WIRED Recommends) are excellent binoculars for hiking and birding. They're lightweight and powerful enough for most people, and the glass is easy to see through, with very few chromatic aberrations coming through—even in bright conditions.
Dreo Chefmaker Combi Fryer for $239 ($120 off)
The Dreo Chefmaker Combi Fryer is the best air fryer for roasts, steaks, and chops. The combination function allows this air fryer to reverse-sear cuts of meat—just add water to the atomizer atop the device before cooking. There's a built-in temperature probe that helps cook steaks and whatnot to your desired rarity before blasting them with heat to brown them. There's also a companion app with recipes that'll help you keep track of dinner progress.
Bob and Brad EZBack Massager for $53 ($17 off)
Our favorite budget body massager hasn't sold for less than this. It can target the back, neck, and shoulders, and even the lower back if you get creative. There are four kneading nodes, three intensity settings, and a heat therapy option. It can strap to a chair if you'd like, the remote control lets you easily adjust the settings, and there's a 15-minute automatic shutoff too.
Meater Pro XL Meat Thermometer for $279 ($70 off)
This is our favorite meat thermometer for kitchen use. It comes with four probes, which connect to the included base station via Bluetooth. Pair it with your phone and the companion app for at-a-glance temperature readings, and customize the experience further with notifications when dinner is reaching its ideal temperature. The system is safe to use for everything from sous vide to smoking, and the app has recipes and guided cooking as well.
Deals on Everything Else
Roots 1973 Athletics Sweatpants for $63 ($15 off)
These sweatpants are WIRED editor Julian Chokkattu's favorite of the many pairs he tested. He liked the Cloud Leg Straight even more. That pair is on sale, too, but the most popular sizes have sold out already. Both pairs are supremely soft, made with a cotton and recycled polyester fleece blend, which makes them perfect for lounging around. Despite being so comfy and cozy, they don't look too sloppy or oversized, so Dad could wear them out and about without feeling too underdressed.
Hydro Flask Standard Water Bottle for $30 ($10 off)
If Dad's water bottle is gross or dented, consider this replacement. It's the most durable water bottle we recommend, and it's available in a lot of neat colors. The slim design fits easily into a cupholder in the car or at the gym. It'll keep drinks cold for up to 24 hours, it's leakproof, and it's dishwasher-safe. It's reliable and gets the job done—just like he does.
Optimum Nutrition Whey Protein Powder (5 Pounds) for $74 ($14 off)
The best protein powder fluctuates in price often, but many different flavors and serving sizes are on sale right now. It offers 24 grams of protein per serving, it's easy to dissolve, and it has fewer additives than some other brands on the market. It's also available in a mind-boggling array of flavors. There's a chance you already know what Dad likes, but if not, the vanilla ice cream flavor linked above is a safe bet.
