Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S22 Ultra lands at $184 off

Amazon is now discounting the unlocked Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra 128GB to $1,016. Marking the third-best discount overall to date, today’s offer is down from the usual $1,200 price tag in order to deliver $184 in savings.

As the new flagship handset in the Samsung stable, the Galaxy S22 Ultra arrives with a refreshed, yet similarly squared-off design as last year’s model. New this time around is an S Pen slot to channel some Galaxy Note energy, as well as a 6.8-inch SuperAMOLED panel and the recent Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip. That’s alongside 256GB of storage, 12GB of RAM, and an improved 5,000mAh battery backed by 45W charging. Our launch day hands-on review details what to expect.

Hisense’s latest Google TV delivers 55 inches of 4K 120Hz mini-LED visuals

Amazon is now offering the Hisense 55-inch 55U8H QLED 4K mini-LED Smart Google TV for $698. Normally fetching $1,100, today’s offer marks one of the very first chances to save on this new 2022 model at $402 off the usual $1,100 price tag. This is also arriving at a new all-time low since first debuting back at the beginning of the year. 

As one of the new Hisense 2022 smart TVs, its U8H series arrives centered around a mini-LED panel that measures 55 inches. Packed into the 4K display is 1,500-nit peak brightness backed by HDR10+, as well as Dolby Vision and a 120Hz native refresh rate. All of the Google smart TV features provide effortless access to all of your favorite services, with four HDMI ports rounding out the package – you can read all about it right here.

Garmin Lily monitors sleep, Pulse Ox, stress, and more

Amazon currently offers the Garmin Lily GPS Smartwatch for $150. As the first price cut since back in May, today’s offer amounts to $50 in savings from the usual $200 price tag. This matches the all-time low and marks one of the first chances to save in 2022 so far.

As one of the more recent additions to the Garmin fitness tracker lineup, the new Lily Smartwatch launched last year with an array of workout features packed into its circular design. Including the ability to track everything from heart rate and sleep to respiration, Pulse Ox, stress, hydration, and more into Apple Health, the battery life is reported to last up to five days. While the standard version rocks a sportier look, there’s also a more premium style that’s also $50 off today with a leather band in tow. 

Sony’s unique new true wireless LinkBuds offer ambient audio passthrough

Amazon now offers the Sony LinkBuds True Wireless Earbuds for $145. While you’d more regularly pay $178, today’s offer amounts to a new all-time low at $33 off. This is $13 below our previous mention and delivering a new all-time low. Taking a hardware approach to the software transparency mode feature, Sony’s new LinkBuds are centered around open ring-style drivers that all sound to naturally pass through from the outside world. Our hands-on review explores what to expect on that front, though the spoiler is that these are ideal for public transportation commuters and the like. The Sony V1 processor balances the sound profile and rounds out the package alongside 20-hour battery life, IPX4 water-resistance, and an ultra-compact charging case.

Samsung’s 2022 model T7 Shield portable SSD at $185

Amazon is now offering the Samsung T7 Shield Portable Solid-State Drive for $185 in the beige colorway. This one launched at $290 back in April before quickly dropping into the $240 range where it has remained for the most part. While we did see an extremely fleeting price drop that brought it even lower back at the beginning of August, today’s offer is the lowest we have tracked otherwise. This model features a rubberized and ridged outer shell to protect it from drops and the elements as well as to provide some extra grip in your hand and on the tabletop. You’re looking at a USB 3.2 Gen 2 PCIe NVMe SSD with USB-C connectivity, speeds up to 1,050MB/s, and a price $15 under the sale listing we are tracking on the comparable SanDisk Extreme variant. Hit up our hands-on review for a closer look.
