Skip the flagships and go with Samsung’s Galaxy A54 5G

Amazon is now offering the best price to date on Samsung’s Galaxy A54 5G. This week has seen a lot of discounts go live on higher-end offerings in the Samsung stable, and now one of the more affordable smartphones in the lineup is getting in on the action. Dropping the unlocked 128GB model down to $325, the savings take $125 off the usual $450 going rate. Today’s offer is the first one since the fall Prime Day event last month and lands as one of the first times that you can lock-in a new all-time low like this. We also just took a hands-on look at the device when it launched, checking out what the Galaxy A54 brings to the table.

Samsung’s Galaxy A54 5G smartphone takes on a more wallet-friendly form factor that comes centered around a 6.4-inch 120Hz display. It departs from the usual reliance on Snapdragon silicon with the deployment of the Exynos 1380 chip that’s backed by 128GB of onboard storage and 8GB of RAM. If you do need some extra room, there’s support for up to 1TB of expansions via microSD card slot, which rounds out the package alongside a 5,000mAh battery and 50 MP triple camera assembly.

Google’s latest flagship streaming media player arrives with 4K HDR playback and support for all of your favorite content from the likes of Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, or even Apple TV+. The Google TV features step up from what we’ve seen from Android TV in the past to deliver a convenient place to peruse, search, and find new shows to watch in one hub. Get a better idea of what to expect from the home theater upgrade in our hands-on review.

Amazon is also now discounting the just-released Chromecast with Google TV (HD). On sale for the very first time, pricing drops down to $20. Normally fetching $30, today’s offer delivers one of the first chances to save with a 33% discount attached. It’s the second-best ever at within $2 of the low. As the latest addition to Google’s stable of streaming media players, this new HD version of Chromecast arrives as a more entry-level offering for giving the TV some love. Sporting 1080p playback at 60 FPS, you’ll be able to enjoy all of your favorite content alongside the curation features that put all of the shows and movies in one place. We break down what to expect from the experience in our hands-on review.
