Inexpensive mini projectors can be boatloads of fun. That’s why we’re willing to throw the spotlight on a lot of these lesser-known devices, many of which can be found at Walmart. In fact, just today, we came across this phenomenal sale:
Right now, the Xgody Gimbal 5 Smart Mini Projector is discounted to $58 from its $300 MSRP. That means you’ll be saving an extra $240 if you purchase soon. Is it the best mini projector money can buy? No, but this Xgody product punches well above its weight class!
Why you should buy the Xgody Gimbal 5 Smart Mini Projector
Movies and video games look fantastic on a big screen, which is why a lot of folks get stuck when deciding between a big-screen TV and a projector. Especially if you’re trying to save money, a mini projector like the Xgody Gimbal 5 is a solid middle-ground. With this bite-sized setup, you get an HD projector that throws up to a 150-inch picture (the recommended throw distance for this screen size is 13.12 feet).

You can also connect external speakers or a soundbar to the Gimbal 5 with Bluetooth. Some of the marketing is a little confusing around the official resolution, so we’re going with the safe bet of 720p HD. According to the manufacturer, the USB port also doesn’t provide enough power to run a streaming device or hard drive (the jury’s out on USB flash drives).
Still, if you’re looking for an ultra-affordable way to stream some Netflix (the Gimbal 5 has a built-in Android 11 smart hub) for your backyard BBQs this summer, look no further.
Save an extra $240 on the Xgody Gimbal 5 Smart Mini Projector when you purchase today. We also recommend taking a look at our lists of the best projector deals, best Walmart deals, and best Bluetooth speaker deals for additional discounts on other cool tech products!

Walmart brings beloved WH-1000XM5 to $298, no Prime membership required
As you browse through Prime Day deals today, you'll inevitably find one that requires you to be a Prime Member to add it to your cart. The implication, though not explicitly stated, is that you're getting the best price, so it's worth it to sign up (or at least use the Amazon Prime free trial). But, your instincts on this aren't always to be trusted, especially with Walmart Prime Day deals also here to rival Amazon. Case in point, the WH-1000XM5 — our choice for the best headphones — are now on sale for just $298, down from a typical price of $400. Where though? You can save your $102 from Amazon or Walmart, but you can only do so from Amazon if you're a Prime member whereas anyone can enjoy the Walmart deal. Tap the appropriate button below to get the deal that's most appropriate for you and then keep reading to see why these our our favorite headphones.
Why you should buy the WH-1000XM5
Simply put, they're among the best. If you've ever had the joy of trying them on inside a Best Buy, where they're often displayed, the instant silence and calm you feel when the active noise cancellation is turned on will have you thinking about them constantly afterwards. From cacophony to peace within the push of a button. And the tap controls are so convenient you might find yourself preferring them to the remote or keyboard. Tap tap, pause, tap tap, resume play. Using them feels seamless, an experience you don't have to think about much.
