This Amazon Prime Day deal is back! The NVIDIA Shield Android TV Pro has one of the most powerful hardware of any out-of-the-box media streamer. The Shield Pro features an NVIDA Tegra X1 CPU (the same processor found in the Nintendo Switch), 3GB of RAM, and 16GB of built-in storage. In terms of performance and versatility, the Shield Pro blows the Roku, Apple TV, Fire Stick, Chromecast, and just about every other media player out of the water. It's capable of handling 4K video with Dolby Vision HDR from all of your favorite streaming apps. It also supports Dolby Atmos and Dolby Digital Plus.
The Shield Pro is one of the only devices that supports GeForce Now, which allows you to stream your PC games to your TV without having to own a gaming PC. A remote PC does all the processing work for you, and all you need is a fast internet connection. It even has a built-in Plex server so you can organize all of your digital media in one centralized location.
The Apple Watch Series 7 41mm GPS model (in Red only) has dropped back down to $299, which is only $20 more than the best price we saw on Amazon Prime Day. The Apple Watch Series 7's most obvious improvement from its predecessors is its larger screen. The Apple Watch Series 7 has a 20% larger screen and can now fit an entire touch-sensitive keyboard on the watch face itself. The display on the Apple Watch Series 7 is always-on, and is 20% brighter than the previous Apple Watch. In spite of increased brightness, the Series 7 boasts the same 18 hours of battery life, as well as 33% faster charging than the Series 6.
The Series 7 also follows Apple's trend of emphasizing health-related features unique to the Apple watch compared to other smartwatches. There's a blood oxygen and ECG app standard with the Apple Watch Series 7, as well as high and low heart rate and irregular heart rhythm notifications.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 5G phone normally sells for $899.99 by itself. However, if you purchase the phone from Best Buy and activate it on the Verizon or AT&T network right away, you'll get it for only $299.99. You do not need to sign up for more than one month of service! You can set up a new postpaid Verizon account and cancel after just 1 month. Since this is an instant discount, not a discount over time with bill credits, you will still get to keep the full savings you made off this phone!
Dell has the excellent 34" Dell S3422DWG gaming monitor for the lowest price we've ever seen. At its current price of $389.99, it's $60 cheaper than what we saw last Black Friday. This monitor features a 34" 3440x1440 ultra-wide 1800R curved VA panel with a 1ms response time, 144Hz refresh rate, 3,000:1 contrast ratio and 90% DCI-P3 color coverage. It's not officially G-SYNC compatible, although we have personally tested it and G-SYNC does indeed run fine on this monitor (as is usually the case with most gaming monitors these days). You get a 3 year warranty and it's eligible for Dell's Premium Panel Exchange, which allows you to get a free panel replacement during the warranty even if only one bright pixel is found.
The Best Buy gift card will show up in your shopping cart before you check out. The Apple gift card can be used to redeem pretty much anything on Apple's site, including products, accessories, apps, games, music, movies, TV shows, and more. Spend it on in-app content, books, subscriptions and even iCloud storage to secure files from all your Apple devices.
The RTX 3080 Ti had previously been maligned as a "poor value" compared to the RTX 3080 and that's because of one justifiable reason: it's MSRP of $1100. That made it a whopping $400 more expensive than an RTX 3080. At 4K resolution, an RTX 3080 Ti represents a 10% performance increase over an RTX 3080, and that certainly wasn't worth $400.
Fast forward to today and Amazon has the EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti XC3 Ultra for $899.99. That's only $150 more an RTX 3080 XC3 Ultra, and now the performance increase is actually quite tempting, especially if you're gaming on a 4K monitor. If you're running games at 4K, with an RTX 3080 you'll be hovering at that threshold between good fps (50fps) and great fps (100+fps) in many newer games and that 10% speed bump from the RTX 3080 Ti could make all the difference in the world.
The G15 is Dell's gaming-focused, value-minded series of laptops. They cost much less than a comparable Alienware laptop, but borrow some of the same internal features like the dual-fan active cooling system, Alienware's Command Center software for tweaking gaming settings and optimizing performance, and choice of gaming oriented GPUs.
For a laptop in the $700 price range, you won't find a more powerful GPU than the RTX 3050 Ti . An RTX 3060 equipped laptop usually runs for about $300-$400 more. The RTX 3050 Ti is a bit more powerful than the previous generation's GTX 1660 Ti and supports DLSS for better performance in supported games and ray tracing for better lighting effects. This card should be able to handle just about any game on the G15's 15" 1080p display without a hitch. It's paired with an 11th gen Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD.
The Apple TV 4K happened to be one of Amazon Prime Day's hottest sellers. Today the price has dropped down to the same as what we saw on Prime Day. The newest Apple TV features two major upgrades. It boasts an A12 Bionic processor that boosts graphics performance, video decoding, and audio processing and delivers high frame rate HDR with Dolby Vision. It also includes a new Apple TV remote. The overall build quality is better than before, but the biggest enhancements are a 5-way clickpad, mute button, and dedicated power button that works for your TV, receiver, and Apple TV.
This was one of the most popular gaming laptop deals during Amazon Prime Day, and it's back for a slightly cheaper price! That's right, this particular ASUS TUF Dash 15" gaming laptop was down to $1100 on Black Friday, but it's only $1069.99 today. It features an RTX 3060 GPU with 105W max TGP and the newest generation Intel Core i7-12650H Alder Lake processor. The new Alder Lake processors are a significant performance bump over previous gen Intel CPUs. Complementing these specs are 16GB of DDR5 RAM and a 512GB SSD.
Space Invaders is one of the oldest video games out there, so get yourself a blast of nostalgia by playing the Space Invaders board game adaptation. This game is 1 to 4 players and takes between 30 and 45 minutes to complete. This is a cooperative board game experience, so you don't have to worry about getting into any arguments on family game night. Plus, the retro looking box will look great on display in your entertainment room.
If you're looking for a new board game to try out, check out these deals on The Isle of Cats and Azul. Azul is one of my personal favorite games, and this version of t he ttile placement game has you building a garden for the queen. Azul is filled with strategy, making it a great pick for a competitive game night. Meanwhile, The Isle of Cats is a great choice for anyone who has that kitten fever after playing Stray.
Dell is offering a bonus $125 Dell eGift Card with this Thrustmaster T300 RS GT Edition Racing Wheel. If you're really to plunk down more cash for a higher end racing wheel, then you should seriously consider the T300 RS. This racing wheel is hands down superior to mid-range models like the G29 thanks to its incredibly smooth and realistic effects, made possible by a genuine brushless Force Feedback servo motor, 1080-degree belt driven system, and Thrustmaster's proprietary H.E.A.R.T contactless magnetic technology. This "Gran Turismo" edition comes with a 3-pedal set instead of 2. It's officially licensed by PlayStation and is guaranteed to be compatible with PS5 games.
If you're looking for a quality yoke instead of a joystick to fly civilian aircraft in games like Microsoft Flight Simulator, Thrustmaster has got you covered again. Officially licensed by Boeing, the Thrustmaster TCA Yoke and Throttle is a 1:1 replica yoke system that replicates the Boeing 787 Airliner. Features include a full metal frame, simulated pendular mechanism, adjustable springs, swappable levers, magnetic controls, and more. It's not cheap at $499.99 MSRP, but Dell is throwing in a bonus $150 Dell promo gift card.
Like several other LEGO sets, the LEGO Star Wars Luke Skywalker's Landspeeder's MSRP went up from $199.99 to $239.99 earlier this month. Every retailer now has it for this new price... except for Walmart. Here's your chance to pick up one of the cooler LEGO Star Wars sets without the new markup. Luke's Landspeeder is an 1,890-brick set that measures 20" long and includes two unique minifigures: Luke Skywalker with a lightsaber and electro binoculars, and C-3PO with a new-for-May-2022 decoration.
Apple's latest 10.2" iPad is a great option for school, work, or simply relaxing with your favorite movie, book, or streaming service. The 64GB model has dropped to $299, and you won't find a less expensive current generation Apple iPad out there. The Apple A13 Bionic chip for fast CPU and GPU performance to tackle just about anything, and the large 10.2-inch Retina display ensures everything is bright and crisp during use. iPad also features both a front-facing camera for voice chat, and rear camera for taking photos and videos.
The current generation Apple AirPods Pro is one of the best sounding "truly wireless" earbuds you'll find, especially at this price point. "Truly wireless" earbuds have no wires whatsoever; even the earbuds aren't hardwired to each other. In addition to the excellent sound quality, the AirPods Pro is the only AirPods with active noise cancelling technology. That, combined with the inherent nature of in-ear earbuds, means that the AirPods Pro will provide better noise isolation than over-ear headphones like the Bose QuietComfort or the Sony WH1000XM5. If you're thinking of getting a pair of new AirPods, we highly recommend jumping on this particular model.
Or, if you're on a tighter budget, you can still grab the second generation Apple AirPods below for 100 bucks.
These headphones from Soundcore are discounted to $39.99 today, making them a cheap alternative to Apple's pricier AirPods. Here, you get 7 hours from a single charge and up to 35 hours with the charging case. There's also a "Find My Headsset" feature with an app for your phone just in case you lose your headphones.
50lb-70lb and 70lb-90lb Expansion Kits are also discounted
Currently Woot (owned by Amazon) is offering a hefty 24% discount on Power Block's Elite Series expandable adjustable dumbell kit. These dumbbells are every bit as well built as the Bowflex SelectTech model. The base kit is $309.99 and is adjustable from 5lbs to 50lbs in increments of 2.5lbs of 5lbs per dumbbell. The expansion pack #1 rasies the limit to 70lbs and the expansion pack #2 raises it further to 90lbs. These sell out very quickly at Woot so if you've been eyeing a pair, you better not hesitate. Woot is owned by Amazon, so you can sign in with your Amazon Prime account to get free shipping.
For those of you who love LG OLED TVs (for good reason) but don't like the idea of using a TV for a computer monitor, there's now an answer. LG has released its first UltraGear OLED gaming monitor. At first glance, the 48GP900 with its 48" LG WOLED 10-bit color HDR display seems very similar to the 48" LG C1 OLED TV. The panel is very similar, but there are some key differences. Instead of the semi glossy coating found on the OLED TV, the 48GP900 features an anti-glare low reflective coating that is undoubtedly a better fit for close up monitor usage. It also has DisplayPort connectivity and lacks the built-in Smart TV interface. It does carry over the HDMI 2.1 ports with 4K @ 120Hz compatiblity for PS5 and Xbox Series X owners, as well as VRR and G-SYNC support, but the 120Hz refresh rate can be overclocked to 138Hz when used as a PC monitor. Last and certainly least important of all, there is subtle RGB backlighting on the rear of the monitor that isn't present on the OLED TVs. This is one of the best gaming monitors you'll find on the market right now.
My how SSD prices have fallen. Amazon is offering the Kingston A400 960GB SSD for a mere $64.99 from its original $104.99 MSRP. This is the least expensive price you'll find for a 1TB SSD from a reputable brand. It might not the fastest SSD on the block, but with rated read speeds of 500MB/s and write speeds of 450MB/s, it will still blow past any traditional hard drive. Put it in an external SSD enclosure and you'll have a great portable SSD drive.
Includes Riser and Light-Up Marquee
Gamestop has the best deal on the Arcade1Up The Simpsons arcade cabinet by throwing in the riser, light up marquee, and the matching themed stool. The Simpsons cabinet is a 3:4 replica of the arcade original, making it approximately 4 feet tall. That said, a matching riser is included which raises the height by another 1 foot, giving you the option of both sitting and standing play. Up to 4 players can join in on the classic Simpsons side-scrolling arcade game as Homer, Marge, Bart, and Lisa. If you don't have a buddy around to play with, you can hop onto the live WiFi (no subscription required) to play with other remote Arcade1Up players. In addition to the core The Simpsons game, The Simpsons Bowling is also preloaded.
Nostalgic for Street Fighter because of all the coll SF6 news? Walmart has a great deal on this 12-in-1 Street Fighter cabinet from Arcade1Up, that includes the following games:
This is a great cabinet for all you Street Fighter 2 fans out there, and even includes the wacky original game.
If you're not interested in either Street Fighter or The Simpsons, how about X-Men? This Arcade1Up offering is unique in that it supports 4 players, making it a great item to invite friends over to check out. It comes with three games, including X-Men 4 Player Arcade, Captain America and the Avengers, and The Avengers in Galactic Storm. It's also Wi-Fi enabled, letting you play multiplayer with your friends in an arcade format.
The Razer Anzu glasses come with two sets of interchangeable lenses; blue-light filtering lenses for indoor PC use and polarized sunglass lenses for outdoor use. Blue light filtering lenses are designed to reduce eye strain and fatigue caused by high energy blue light emitted from your computer monitor. Blue light is a melatonin suppressor, and the theory is that using your monitor at night suppresses your natural sleep cycle. If that's true, blue light filtering lenses should help you fall asleep better, even after an intense late night gaming session. The tinted polarized lenses work much like any regular pair of sunglasses; the polarized film provides 99% UVA/UVB protection and is designed to reduce glare and eliminate potential eye damage from the sun.
Razer took an extra step and implemented wireless hands-free calling in these glasses.There's a Bluetooth speaker and microphone embedded in the frame. A clever touch interface allows you to manipulate the controls, but it's also voice assistant compatible. You get up to 5 hours of talk time, so you probably won't need to charge it every day.
This price has become even more attractive following the Meta Quest 2 price hike. The Reverb G2 normally sells for $599, but Walmart has it for $200 off. The Reverb G2 sports the second highest resolution of any VR headset with 2160x2160 pixels per eye (even more than the already impressive Quest 2's 1832×1920 resolution), manual IPD adjustment, a far more robust headstrap than the Quest 2, inside-out tracking that doesn't require external sensors, and off-ear headphones that maintain your peripheral hearing.
Walmart has the Roku Ultra LT 4K HDR streaming media player for only $55, down about 15% off its original MSRP. The Roku Ultra LT is almost identical to the $100 Ultra; the only two features it lacks are a USB port and Dolby Atmos support. It sports the same processor and memory as the Ultra, which means it excels at streaming at up to 4K HDR without a hitch. Roku still has one of the most intuitive smart TV interfaces around.
Walmart is offering an outstanding deal on the new Lenovo Legion 5 Pro laptop that is also equipped with the 12th generation Intel Core i7 Alder Lake CPU and RTX 3070 GPU. The RTX 3070 GPU in this gaming laptop also has a TGP rating of 140W, and it performs as well as the MSI Crosshair on paper. In real world benchmarks, the Legion 5 Pro is one of the best performing gaming laptops on the market. It also looks more like a standard laptop, so you might want to pick this over the Crosshair if you're not into the gamer aesthetic.
