A few weeks ago, a free storage upgrade for the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra brought the price of the 12/512GB model down to $1,300. Now that same model is $1,170. It has been at that price before, so there is some fluctuation. The good news is that this time the 12/256GB model is discounted too and can be had for $1,050 – and that is the lowest that we have seen.
Samsung is likely to launch the new Tab S10 series soon, though we haven’t heard much about it. The outgoing Tab S9 series is still worth a look. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9+ is $250 off right now. Note that both the 256GB and 512GB have the same amount of RAM (12GB) and expandable storage.
The smaller Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 starts with less RAM and storage in its base configuration – 8/128GB. Storage is expandable, but you may want to spend the $100 extra and get the model with 4 extra gigs of RAM (and 256GB storage).
The Apple Watch Series 10 is expected to bring major upgrades, but we will have to wait until September to find out if the rumors were true. Meanwhile, the Apple Watch Series 9 (aluminum watch with GPS) is $100 off for both the 41mm and 45mm sizes.
You can get an Apple Watch for under $200 with the small 2022 SE, but that is a few generations behind in terms of tech – it doesn’t do Always-On Display and lacks ECG compared to the Series 9 model.
The Apple Watch Ultra 2 has a modest discount and this is the one to get if you want all the features. It’s certified for diving down to 130ft and (like the Series 9) supports the Double Tap feature. Note that due to legal issues, the blood-oxygen feature is disabled on Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 units sold in the US.
According to rumors, Sony will not launch the WH-1000XM6 and WF-1000XM6 until next year. This means that the XM5 generation of over-ear headphones and TWS buds will remain current for a while yet. Both have small discounts over on Amazon.
