Wrapping up the workweek, we have Google Nest WiFi Pro systems starting at $160 to headline Friday’s best deals. The Beats Studio Pro ANC headphones are also now $180, and you can still save on Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S9 FE/+ Android tablets starting from $400. Hit the jump for all that and more in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break.
Google Nest WiFi Pro systems, starting from $160
Amazon is now marking down three different Google Nest WiFi Pro systems, all of which now start at $159.99 shipped. This single router package that headlines the savings normally sells for $200 and now drops down by 20%, much like the other two packages. It’s the second-best price to date at within $2 of the all-time low from back in October and is the first discount since. We didn’t see any price cuts for this model over Black Friday, either. Dive into our hands-on review for a closer look at what to expect from the package.
Those who need extra coverage will also find two other packages on sale. These both step up from just a single router to 2- or 3-node systems that provide all of the same perks as we covered above, just with added range. Both of these discounts match the best prices of the year in the process and are detailed below.
- 2-node Nest WiFi Pro system: $220 (Reg. $300)
- 3-node Nest WiFi Pro system: $300 (Reg. $400)
Google’s latest in-house Wi-Fi router arrives centered around entirely new builds that pack in the latest Wi-Fi 6E networking tech. There are 2,200 square feet of coverage for each of the routers, with up to 5.4Gb/s speeds over the tri-band connection, as well as extra Ethernet ports to handle wired devices. You’ll be able to choose between the two different bundles depending on how much coverage you need too.
Beats Studio Pro ANC headphones now $180
If you missed out on the Black Friday offer, Amazon is delivering another chance to save on the new Beats Studio Pro headphones. These recently released over-ears are now down to $179.95 shipped at the retailer, dropping from the usual $350 price tag in the process. This is almost 50% off and applies to all four styles of the cans. It comes within $10 of the all-time low from back over the Thanksgiving Week savings event and is the second-best price we’ve seen overall. These are some of our favorite headphones on the market right now, and our hands-on review walks you through just why that’s the case.
The third birthday of AirPods Max was one of the big topics around 9to5 last week, but not just for celebrating the milestone. There’s no denying that Apple’s hi-fi headphones could use a refresh, and while we wait, at least there’s the new Beats Studio Pro. These recently released headphones arrive as a new flagship in the lineup with an over-ear listening experience and all the bells and whistles you’d expect from that front-runner status.
Centered around active noise cancellation, there’s also a companion transparency mode to go alongside the even more exciting inclusion of Personalized Spatial Audio and Dynamic Head tracking. We found them to be the better buy over AirPods Max in that review we noted above, and I’ve personally been enjoying them myself.
Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S9 FE/+ Android tablets now start from $400
Samsung’s winter Discover sale is marching on with some discounts rolling out today on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE. Right now, the 128GB model lands at $399.99 shipped. It’s $50 off the usual $450 going rate and comes within $1 of the all-time low. This is the second-best price cut yet and one of the first chances to save. Samsung just launched its new Galaxy Tab S9 FE as a more affordable alternative to its flagship tablets. The whole experience comes powered by an Exynos 1380 chip and supplemented by 6GB of RAM and 128GB or more of onboard SSD storage. An S Pen is included in the box to take advantage of its 10.9-inch screen for more digital artistry and far more. Our hands-on report from over at 9to5Google breaks down what to expect from the experience too.
Alongside the base model on sale above, there’s also a chance to save on the Galaxy Tab S9 FE+. Amazon offers the higher-end tablet for $549.99, down from its usual $600 price tag. This is $50 off and comes within $1 of our previous mention. Samsung’s new Galaxy Tab S9 FE+ offers everything you’ll find on the standard S9 FE above, just with a larger 12.4-inch display. There’s also added RAM to help you saturate the screen with all of the extra multitasking power. Samsung also includes an extra 8MP ultrawide camera on the FE+ model above that is lacking on the base configuration.
Google Pixel 7 Pro 256GB is an even better value at $539
Amazon is now offering the best price ever on Google Pixel 7 Pro. Right now the unlocked 256GB smartphone drops down to $539 shipped. Today’s discount lands from the original $999 price tag and saves you $460. It beats our previous mention by an extra $40 and also undercuts the current sale price on the Pixel 8 Pro by an extra $239. The same all-time low status applies to the 512GB model, too. We breakdown how this smartphone stacks up against the 2023 roster below the fold, and our original hands-on review offers some extra insight.
This might not be the latest smartphone on the block, but there’s no arguing with a $399 discount. The Pixel 7 Pro arrives as last year’s flagship from Google and is still one of the company’s more capable releases to date. It packs a 6.7-inch QHD+ 120Hz screen on the front, with a triple sensor camera array around back comprised of a 50MP main sensor, 12MP ultrawide lens, and upgraded 48MP telephoto zoom capabilities. All of that comes powered by the second-generation Tensor G2 chip which is complemented by 128GB of storage and 12GB of RAM on the base model.
Amazon clears out Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 at $550
Amazon is now offering the best price yet on the unlocked Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4. If you’re not sold on the newer Flip 5, going with last year’s foldable at $549.99 shipped is now an even better option. It’s down from the original $1,000 going rate and is an extra $200 under our last mention. If you’re looking to activate your new smartphone right away, you can drop pricing even lower over at Best Buy. Right now, you can score the handset for $299.99 with Verizon. That’s some extra savings for ditching the unlocked status via Amazon, and making for an even better price. In either case, these are easily the best discounts to date, and even better values considering that the new Z Flip 5 doesn’t really bring anything all too new to the table.
Samsung’s recent Galaxy Z Flip 4 takes on a more casual approach to folding devices with a design that’s inspired by old school flip phones. Housed within the flip design in one of four colors is a 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 120Hz display that comes powered by the new Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip. On the outside is the 1.9-inch Super AMOLED display for checking notifications, which also doubles as preview for taking selfies with either of the dual 12 MP cameras. Its internal 3,700mAh battery is larger than its predecessor and rounds out the package that you can read all about over in our review.
