There are plenty of sales this 8.8 but a rather unusual one comes in the form of Belkin’s offers. I know these aren’t the most exciting sales items so all I can do is to cheap thrill this can easily fall under the cheap thrill category–stuff that isn’t the first thing that comes to mind but you might need lying around anyway.
For instance, you can never put a price on a reliable charger but at the same time let’s not kid ourselves these are accessories that most of us cheapen out on whenever we have a chance. So when a reputable charger is heavily discounted–albeit a little older–why not? I’d hedge that bet over something cheap but untested.

The BOOST CHARGE 30W USB-C PD GaN Wall Charger (WCH001myWH), goes for $39 (UP $69) while the BOOST CHARGE Wireless Charging Stand + Speaker 10W (AUF001my) will be priced at $45 (UP $129). If you need a wall charger with a fast charging feature or a wireless charger, these two are pretty decent. And in the case of the Wireless Charging Stand, you basically get a 10W wireless speaker thrown in for free. The latter is pretty old but what it offers for the price isn’t bad.

Sure, you can pick up cheaper options like Ugreens for about $15 less but I think the Connected Equipment Warranty (covers up to USD2,500) is cheap insurance in the (however unlikely) event that your device gets damaged by a power surge whilst connected to that Belkin device.

The BOOST CHARGE PRO 4-Port GaN Charger 108W (WCH010myWH) is probably their best-performing charger and the regular price tag of $129 will likely put people off. Unfortunately, there isn’t much of a discount to speak of (sales price $120) but if you want to get the most out of it you will need a cable that can handle the extra juice, and that usually costs you a pretty penny.
Belkin offers a bundle with the BOOST CHARGE USB-C to USB-C Cable 100W 3 meters (CAB014bt3M) for $145 (UP $163.90), so the convenience here might warrant a mention.

If you need a multimedia hub, the Belkin USB-C Multimedia Hub (F4U092btSGY) for $88 (UP $169) isn’t too bad. It supports pass-through charging up to 60W, 1Gb Ethernet port, USB-A, USB-C, HDMI (4K 30Hz) and SD card ports.
But, it’s the audio gear that offers the best deals. Wait, what? Belkin audio? Yep, you heard that right. Need some headphones for the kids or cheap true wireless earbuds? Now’s a good time to get a backup.
SOUNDFORM Mini Wireless On-Ear Headphones for Kids (AUD002bt) | Image credit: Belkin
The SOUNDFORM Mini Wireless On-Ear Headphones for Kids (AUD002bt) retails for $40 (UP $59). It has a volume cap of 85dB, long battery life of up to 30 hours, and a microphone for calls. It’s also ‘spill and accident-proof’ for up to two years, but I have complete faith that the little devils will find a way to destroy it.
But it’s the true wireless earbuds that the prices are wild. The SOUNDFORM Freedom True Wireless Earbuds (AUC002) is priced at $69 (UP $149), the SOUNDFORM Rise True Wireless Earbuds (AUC004) is priced at $49 (UP $99), while the SOUNDFORM True Wireless Earbuds (AUC001) in Black & White is priced at $29 (UP $99).

The AUC002 works with Apple’s Find My app and uses environmental echo cancellation to reduce background noise on calls.

The AUC001 is the basic model but it features touch controls and IPX5 water resistance along with 5+19 hours of battery life.

The AUC004 has longer battery life (7 hours) and reserve battery (24 hours), better microphones and lower latency for video streaming.
The offers are valid from 8th to 10th August 2022 unless stated otherwise.
