Thursday’s best deals include various Pixel devices from $90 and Dell Chromebooks on sale as well. Hit the jump for all that and more in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break.

Pixel devices from $90

Woot offers fully unlocked refurbished Pixel 2 models for $90. That’s $10 less than our previous refurbished mention and down from the original $649 price tag. Pixel 2 offers a 12MP camera, up to 25 hours of battery life, and a water-resistant design. Includes a 90-day warranty. Those in need of more screen real estate can score a Pixel 2 XL from $120, falling in-line with our previous mentions, as well. Although a few generations older now, this is still a solid buy for kids and grandparents. Includes a 90-day warranty with purchase.

Woot via Amazon offers Google Pixel 3a 64GB for $320. As a comparison, you’d typically pay $399 at B&H and other retailers. This is the best price we’ve tracked in nearly 3-months at Amazon. That’s also a new Amazon all-time low.

Pixel 3a delivers a 5.6-inch HD display, alongside 64GB worth of internal storage and a 12MP camera. You can count on up to seven hours of use after just 15 minutes on a charger. Also features a built-in thumbprint reader to unlock your device.

Need a larger display? Woot via Amazon has the Pixel 3a XL 64GB model on sale for $420. You’d typically pay $479 on this model. You’ll find many of the same features noted above, but in a slightly larger footprint with a 6-inch display.

Dell Chromebooks on sale

Best Buy’s official eBay storefront offers the Dell Inspiron 14-inch 2-in-1 Chromebook i3/4GB/128GB for $349. Usually selling for $549, today’s offer is good for a $200 discount and matches our previous mention for the all-time low.

Rocking a 2-in-1 form-factor, this Chromebook can convert between a laptop and tablet just by folding back the 14-inch screen. Battery life clocks in at 10-hours for students looking to take notes all-day, or those hoping to get some work done while out and about. On top of dual USB-C ports, you’ll also find a USB-A input, ensuring that modern and legacy peripherals will work like a charm.

Get two TP-Link Assistant smart plugs for $23

Amazon offers a 2-pack of TP-Link Kasa Smart Plugs for $23. As a comparison, you’d typically pay $30 at retailers like B&H. Today’s deal is the second-best we’ve tracked at Amazon. With a streamlined horizontal design and compatibility with major smart home ecosystems, these affordable plugs make it easy to take control of your lights and more. You’ll be able to leverage both Alexa and Google Assistant to control these plugs with your voice. Plus automatic scheduling cuts down on any energy vampires that may be lurking in your setup.

LifeProof’s USB-C Lanyard Cable is 44% off

Amazon is currently offering the LifeProof LIFEACTÍV USB-C Lanyard Cable for $13. Usually selling for $23, today’s offer is good for a 44% discount, marks the first notable price cut we’ve seen, and a new Amazon all-time low. This rugged USB-A to USB-C cable measures 15-inches in length and sports a lanyard design that can be attached to a bag. So while you’re out and about, a charging cable will always be within reach. It has a braided nylon build quality and is waterproof as well.
