Walmart Deals of the Day: $80 Off Top-Rated Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds
Walmart consistently offers some great bargains, but they're not always easy to find. Even big discounts on top-notch tech get buried under page after page of junk, which means finding these savings takes some legwork. That's where CNET comes in. Our dedicated deals team scours its site for the best deals daily, and we've rounded up some of our top picks below. For today, March 5, that includes $80 off the top-rated Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds, $300 off a powerful Asus VivoBook Pro laptop and a Gourmia air fryer that you can grab for under $70. Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds: $219 (save $80) See at Walmart These Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds boast some of the best noise-cancelling capabilities on the market right now. Pair that with top-notch sound quality and a comfortable fit, and they're some of the best earbuds out there, period. Our reviewer also commended their Immersive Audio, which supports head-tracking and allows for a more "natural" sound. They're definitely a luxury pick, but this nice $80 discount makes them a little more attainable for most shoppers. Asus Vivobook Pro: $899 (save $300) See at Walmart This midrange Asus features some solid specs that make it a great laptop for most users. It has a large and detailed 16-inch WUXGA display that's great for work or entertainment, which is paired with a Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 GPU so it can handle basic gaming. The processor is an Intel Core i9 chip, and it's also equipped with respectable 1TB of storage and 16GB of RAM. Plus, it has a 70Wh battery for all-day use, and other convenient features like a built-in fingerprint reader and a 180-degree hinge. At around four pounds, it's a little on the heavy side, but that shouldn't be much of an issue unless you're constantly working on the go. Gourmia 8-quart air fryer: $68 (save $31) See at Walmart You don't have to settle for takeout or frozen pizzas if you need a fast and easy weeknight dinner. This Gourmia air fryer makes it easy to whip up delicious meals, and it has a large 8-quart capacity so you can feed the whole family. It boasts preset cooking functions for seafood, vegetables, wings and more so there's no guesswork, plus it can roast, bake, broil, reheat and dehydrate for serious versatility. And the basket and tray are dishwasher-safe so cleanup is a breeze as well.

Gourmia's Low-Cost Pizza Oven and Air Fryer Scorches at 800 Degrees
Note that you might have to set the temperature on the top heating element a bit higher than the presets suggest in order to fully cook your cheese. Or not. Let's just say you don't always know how it's going to go, but it'll mostly come out all right when you're aiming at New York–style or thin-crust pies. Short-cook, high-temp pizza is more of a dice roll. And if you're making multiple pizzas, you'll probably need 5 to 7 minutes between them to get back to temp after opening the oven. To Fry or Not to Fry Unfortunately, the stone offers no thermal mass as ground cover for the thermostat while on the baking or air frying settings. If you want to use this as your standard accessory oven, you will run the risk of cooking temps being zany by 30 to 50 degrees in one direction or another. At lower temperatures especially, the oven tends to run cold. Photograph: Gourmia The oven gets more accurate at about 425 degrees Fahrenheit, which is lucky: A lot of recipes and frozen foods tend to fall into this range. But unless you feel like using temperature probes for all food, the oven will be tough to trust when you're doing something that requires more precision than toasting bread or reheating leftovers. I tried wings multiple ways, one of my standard tests for air fryers. Temperatures varied widely across the surface of the fryer basket, with cool temps at the sides and near the door. The fan from the back of the device didn't manage much more than a strong breeze, meaning this oven's 'air fryer' function is closer to old-school convection oven. True crispness was unattainable. If you throw away an air fryer or toaster oven to make room for the Gourmia, you'll probably soon miss it. A Gateway Oven Whatever the oven's inherent limitations, the internet is littered with blissfully happy customers of this Gourmia All-In-One, or the even cheaper Walmart version without the extra cooking functions. Photograph: Gourmia The reason is simple: It fills, for some, a desperate need. At a price far below the top-line models, this pizza oven can attain 800-degree temperatures, can cook indoors or in a garage during cold winters when you're probably not out building wood fires, and will probably smoke a little but not a lot. Keep your windows open, or turn on your vent fans. You can nail the heck out of a Neapolitan-ish pizza, experiment with dough hydration, and meditate on New York's great contribution to world cuisine. You can, for relatively low admission, decide whether pizza making will become a hobby. If you do, then you will probably kick this ladder away eventually. The Gourmia is a gateway oven, one that will inevitably send you either back to your local pizzeria or to a much more expensive and reliable Ooni electric that you may, like WIRED gear team editor Adrienne So, begin to treat like a member of your family. With this low-cost oven, you get what you pay for. On the bright side, you do get something.
