Upgrade to the massive Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite unlocked for $450 (Update: Sold out)

Raise your hand if you’re confused like me. The Samsung Galaxy S10E is the “budget” option in the Galaxy lineup, right? No, wait, it’s the new Galaxy A51. Or maybe it’s the Galaxy S10 Lite, which I honestly didn’t realize existed until this morning. I don’t envy anyone trying to choose between all these models. Maybe …

Get an iPhone 8 Plus and 3 months of service for $299

Looking for a budget iPhone? You might be thinking the iPhone SE is the way to go, what with its $399 starting price. However, there’s a case to be made for the iPhone 8 Plus, which has a larger screen (5.5 inches, to the SE’s 4.7) and — for a limited time — lower price. Read more: iPhone XR vs. …

Save $51 on the Nixplay Seed Wi

This is a very weird time to be writing about deals. It seems trivial in comparison with what’s happening across the country right now. I’ll simply say that Father’s Day is coming, and if you’re looking for something special to give Dad, I think this is a great choice. Plus, it’s notably on sale for the second-lowest price ever. (The …

Nothing good on Netflix? Try one of these free streaming TV trials

I’ll be honest: Even before the coronavirus the Netflix well was running a little dry for me, especially now that I’ve blown through Ozark season 3. Fortunately, lots of other streaming services have stepped up with longer free trials for people stuck at home, meaning you no longer have to try to shoehorn an entire season or series into just a week or …

Need a cheap phone? The unlocked LG G7 Fit is just $149 right now (Update: Expired)

A midtier phone when it debuted in late 2018, the LG G7 Fit didn’t get much attention. (LG phones rarely do, which is too bad because many of them are great.) Maybe the $420 price tag made this mostly plastic model — a sort of “lite” version of the LG G7 Thinq — a hard sell. But you know what …

Amazon’s details on COVID

For the most up-to-date news and information about the coronavirus pandemic, visit the WHO and CDC websites. Courtenay Brown, who puts together grocery orders for online shoppers, says she’s afraid of coming into work at her Amazon Fresh warehouse in New Jersey. “For me right now in the warehouse, it’s chaos, it’s terrifying,” she said, wearing a neon-colored safety vest …

The rugged Amazfit T

I’ve long been a fan of the Amazfit Bip budget smartwatch. But the name? A bit too cutesy. How about something a little more manly, like Razor or Stealth or…T-Rex! Now we’re talking. Indeed, on the merits of its ferocious moniker alone, I like Amazfit’s latest wearable. Thankfully, it’s also a genuinely cool watch, and an outright bargain with this …

Hear TV dialog the way it was meant to be heard with the Zvox soundbar, on sale for $140

Please don’t go for the easy joke — yes, I know that my ears are getting older. But that’s beside the point. The speakers built into modern TVs are terrible and do a lousy job of reproducing dialog. Compound that problem with the fact that many modern TV shows go for a more realistic approach to sound design, which means …

Get a new, no

I’m often asked, “Which iPhone should I buy?” My answer is always the same: The iPhone XR. (And that’s true even following the recent introduction of the new iPhone SE.) Big screen, great cameras, reasonable price tag. Of course, I like it even better when there’s a deal to be had — and no contract you’re forced to take along …
