And its Pixel phones, of course. The Google Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro are in for 7 years of support – both software and hardware (no, not warranty, but there will be spare parts available until 2030). The Pixel 8 Pro is the better of the two with a 6.7” LTPO display (1,344 x 2,992px) a 48MP 5x periscope and a 48MP ultra wide camera. Google Pixel 8...

Samsung is more willing to discount its devices than Apple is, but seeing how it’s Black Friday, Amazon has discounts for both. We also included some other interesting deals we stumbled upon, including Nothing and a couple of VR headsets. We start off with the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. Amazon has models with 512GB and 1TB storage, the 256GB one is not part of this week’s offers. The 2024 S-phones are a couple of months away, of course, and there will be some pre-order perks, but the S23 Ultra has one of the best cameras from 2023 and even its predecessor, the S22 Ultra, is still being...

You’ve been hearing about Black Friday deals for a couple of weeks now, but today is the day. Once again Samsung US is using the opportunity to get you to try out its Shop Samsung app with some exclusive discounts. You can go through the web store too, though you will need a student discount to get the same price drops that the app offers. Let’s start with the foldables. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 comes with a free storage upgrade to 512GB and you can get 25% off through the app. The student discount is also 25%, but they don’t stack. What does stack is the trade-in credit – you can drop...

Settle in for a heap of deals from the American tablet and smartwatch market. We've collected some of the best Black Friday deals for you. Starting, naturally, with Apple.

While they’re only celebrating Thanksgiving across the pond, Black Friday deals are for everyone. Here we’ve collected the best tablet offers along with the best smartwatch deals. Starting with the tablets, we picked out Android, iOS and even Windows models. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra has been replaced by the S9 generation, but tablets don’t age as quickly as phones do.

The 14.6” 2,960 x 1,848px 120Hz Super AMOLED display is...
