Elden Ring
FromSoftware’s latest title, Elden Ring, takes Dark Souls formula to a huge open world. While arguably better known for its cheap hot dogs and pizza, this Costco deal is more appealing and much less greasy. Currently, the popular wholesaler has discounted the MacBook Air that is equipped with M1 from 2020 to just $ 849.99, far from its usual price of $ 999.99. This is one of the lowest prices we have seen for an Apple laptop with feather weight and it is definitely worth a look, provided you are already a Costco card member. This latest model of MacBook Air debuted in 2020, which makes it a bit long, but still offers excellent build quality, ample battery life and an M1 chip that gives it more than enough power to run modern applications. This configuration of the 13.3-inch MacBook Air is equipped with 256 GB of storage and 8 GB of RAM, which is a solid set of specifications for a laptop of this size, even if the M1 processor can not compete with the M1 Pro and M1 Max chips found in Apple’s MacBook Pro series. Read our review.
MacBook Air with M1 (end of 2020)
The MacBook Air is Apple’s flagship laptop, which is equipped with the company’s new M1 chip in one of three different colors (silver, space gray and gold). It is also worth mentioning that LG launched a sequel to this model quite recently. Named C2, it has a brighter screen and 7.1.2 surround sound as opposed to 5.1.2 in C1. The C2 is currently being sold at the same price as the C1 in release, but unless these features are particularly important to you, this deal is still worth considering.
LG C1 OLED (55 inches)
The LG C1 OLED is a great gaming TV with support for Nvidia G-Sync and AMD FreeSync technologies, along with a 120 Hz refresh rate, low input latency and fast processor. It also has a “Game Optimizer” toolbar, a configuration window that comfortably combines game-focused settings such as refresh rate and delay for faster access. The 55-inch model currently costs $ 997 on eBay when you use the code SHOPTECH15 at checkout. Another welcome addition is the variety of edges that come with these headphones, which provide a more secure fit than some Apple headphones. The XM3 also has an elegant aesthetic that combines matte black with brass touches. Just note that, unlike the newer XM4s, these headphones are not sweat or water resistant, so they should be removed from the gym just like me. Read our review of the Sony WF-1000XM3.
Sony WF-1000XM3
Originally released in 2018, the WF-1000XM3 still outperform the competition in terms of battery life and sound quality, even if they are not as capable as their successor. The Aorus 15P has an impressive 15-inch, 1080p panel with an extremely fast refresh rate of 240 Hz. This allows the 15P to make the most of its powerful hardware, which can easily handle most modern 1080p games. The laptop also has a number of additional USB-A ports for peripherals and an HDMI connection for an external monitor. Just note that adding an additional screen will tax your system resources more.
