After this week's Prime Big Deal Days announcement, it's no surprise that Amazon has been stealing the spotlight when it comes to flashy discounts. However, it's worth noting that Walmart is stepping up to the plate with its own set of impressive savings — specifically in the tech department. 

Walmart is currently hosting a fall sale with massive markdowns on TVs, laptops, speakers and headphones. You can score devices from popular brands like Sony, Samsung, Apple and more from just $43. My personal favorite deal is $110 off the Sony WH-1000XM5 Headphones which tops our list of best headphones. Walmart also has tons of deals on smart TVs starting at just $74.

As Walmart goes head to head with Amazon Prime Day, keep scrolling to check out my favorite tech deals from the sale.
