Black Friday + Cyber Monday (late November) for TVs, laptops, and headphones. Prime Day (July + October) for Amazon devices and tech accessories. January for fitness electronics and post-holiday inventory dumps. Back-to-school (July-August) for laptops + tablets. Avoid buying laptops in May-June — new models drop in September.

Manufacturer-refurbished (Apple, Dell Outlet, Lenovo Outlet, Microsoft, Sony) is genuinely a steal — full warranty, tested, often new outer shells, typically 15-30% off.

Laptops: 5-7 years quality, 3-5 years budget. Smartphones: 5-7 years with battery service. TVs: 7-12 years before panel degradation. Headphones: 4-8 years for wireless, 10+ for wired.

Usually no — most electronics fail in year 1 (covered by manufacturer) or year 5+ (past extended warranty). AppleCare+ is the exception — covers accidental damage, often pays for itself with one screen repair. For TVs, laptops, headphones over $500: read the extended warranty terms carefully; many exclude common failure modes.
