We're looking forward to Father's Day later this month and if you're planning for it early, our gift guide plus a number of leftover Memorial Day deals can help you get dad something great. Both Apple's 10.2-inch iPad and its high-end AirPods Max headphones are on sale, plus Samsung's T7 portable SSD is $20 off. Samsung's still offering an impressive deal on its new Galaxy Chromebook 2 and the Beats Solo Pro on-ear headphones remain at a record low of $149. Here are the best tech deals from this week that you can still get today.
10.2-inch iPad
The entry-level iPad remains on sale for $299 at Amazon and Walmart. It's been hovering at this sale price for a while, so now's a good time to grab one before the next price hike back to $330. We like the 8th-gen iPad for its fast processor, nice display, good battery life and support for the first-gen Apple Pencil.

AirPods Max
AirPods Max are $30 off right now, bringing them down to $520. While not a huge discount, these headphones haven't really seen a good sale since their debut at the end of last year. We gave them a score of 84 for their excellent sound and ANC, handy features with the H1 chip and solid battery life.

Samsung T7 SSD
Samsung's 500GB T7 portable drive is still on sale for $80, or $20 off its normal price. The T-family of SSDs has been a favorite for their compact, metal designs and speedy performance. We also appreciate that they come with USB-C and USB-A cables in the box, so you can use it regardless of which connectors your computer may (or may not) have. The T7 has read speeds up to 1,050 MB/s and write speeds up to 1,000 MB/s, and dynamic thermal guide technology prevents the device from overheating.

75-inch Vizio P-Series Quantum 4K TV
