'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?

ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.

When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.

ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards. If we have made an error or published misleading information, we will correct or clarify the article. If you see inaccuracies in our content, please report the mistake via this form.

Memorial Day weekend doesn't just signal the start of summer, it's when you can score some of the best deals of the year on everything from smart home devices to TVs to tablets to lawn and outdoor gear, and more. 

Some of the biggest retailers in the business like Best Buy, Walmart, and Amazon are showing off their deals right now, and as a tech editor who constantly covers sale events, I expect even more savings to roll out over the long weekend and after Memorial Day comes to a close. 

Other brands, like Samsung, have their own sales events during the holiday weekend where you can score some deals you won't see any other time of year. Check out the Discover Samsung Summer Sale, active from May 20th to the 26th for some unbeatable deals on new TVs, smartphones, tablets, and more.

Overwhelmed? Don't be. The experts at ZDNET and I rounded up the best Memorial Day 2024 deals so you can get the most savings this weekend. I keep my eyes peeled for savings on top products backed by ZDNET testing, discounts greater than 20% off, and products that don't frequently see a sale, and I consider your buying options as if I were purchasing every item on this list myself. In fact, it's likely that I or another ZDNET team member have purchased many of these products ourselves. We only recommend products that are worth your cash. 

Rest assured, this isn't my first deals rodeo, either. I've covered Prime Day, Black Friday, Cyber Week, and more, so trust me, I know a good deal when I see one. I'll update this list with all the best deals leading into Memorial Day 2024 and afterward, so check back here for all the best discounts, refreshed daily.

How did we choose these Memorial Day deals?

As a member of ZDNET, I only write about deals myself or a team member would want to buy -- devices and products we desire, need, or would recommend. I looked for deals that were at least 20% off (or are hardly ever on sale), using established price comparison tools and trackers to determine whether the deal is actually on sale and how frequently it drops.

I also looked over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the deals I recommend. These recommendations may also be based on my own testing (or testing by another ZDNET expert) -- in addition to extensive research and comparison shopping. The goal is to deliver the most accurate advice to help you shop smarter.

When will these deals expire?

Deals are subject to sell out or expire at any time, though ZDNET remains committed to finding, sharing, and updating the best product deals for you to score the best savings. Our team of experts regularly checks in on the deals we share to ensure they are still live and obtainable. We're sorry if you've missed out on a deal, but don't fret -- we're constantly finding new chances to save and sharing them with you at ZDNET.com

When is Memorial Day?

Memorial Day always falls on the last Monday of May. This year, it is on Monday, May 27, 2024. However, you'll find that retailers will have sales all weekend long, and even days ahead of the holiday.
