This afternoon’s collection of Android game and app deals courtesy of Google Play is now ready to go down below. Just be sure to scope out the offers we are tracking today on Samsung’s 34-inch 175Hz Odyssey OLED G8 gaming monitor, a massive up to $360 off Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra with a FREE $25 gift card attached, as well as deals on the wireless Google indoor/outdoor Nest Cam, and more. As for the apps, we have Doom & Destiny Worlds, Doom & Destiny Advanced, Inbetween Land, Grinsia, Devils & Demons, and more. Head below for a closer look.

Launched on July 24, 2024, the Motorola Razr Plus 2024 is still less than a month old. We usually don’t start seeing sales on devices so soon, but right now, you can catch a $100 discount on the Motorola Razr Plus 2024. This brings the cost down to $900.

Get the Motorola Razr Plus 2024 for $900

This offer is available from Amazon, as well as the official Motorola page. The discount applies to all color variants of the Motorola Razr Plus 2024: Midnight Blue, Spring Green, Peach Fuzz, and Hot Pink.

The Motorola Razr Plus 2024 is a fantastic foldable phone, competing directly with the likes of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6. At $900, though, it might be the best bet in terms of high-end flip phones. Performance is nothing short of amazing, featuring a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor and 12GB of RAM.

The external display has been expanded, covering pretty much the whole front of the phone when folded shut. The main display measures 6.9 inches and features an LTPO AMOLED panel with a 165Hz refresh rate.

We especially like Motorola’s clean software, which is pretty much ad- and bloat-free. The leather and suede exterior finishes look and feel great, too. Not to mention, the hinge has been slimmed down for a much more refined look. The battery is a bit small at 4,000mAh, but such is the nature of flip phones, and the 45W charging ensures you can get it juiced up quickly.

It’s a great overall phone, and I happen to prefer its look and design over Sammy’s alternative. Go buy your Motorola Razr Plus 2024 while the price is low! We’re not sure how long this offer will last, and many would argue it’s the very best flip phone available right now.

This afternoon’s collection of Android price drops is now ready to go. Alongside the Google Play deals, we are also tracking some big-time offers on Copilot+ Snapdragon X Elite PCs from ASUS and HP, alongside offers on Pebblebee’s Clip Google Find My AirTag competitor and Samsung’s UWB Galaxy SmartTag 2 item tracker, as well as the first real deal on the new Sonos Ace ANC headphones. As for the apps, highlights include titles like Psychofunk, Candy Disaster TD, Endurance, Water Tracker, and more. Head below for everything. 

We take solid internet connections for granted in major cities, but if you step out of metropolitan areas, your options will quickly drop. This is what makes Starlink so special. You can get internet nearly anywhere in the USA, as well as many other countries. The equipment can get pricey, though. Lucky for you, we’ve found a great deal on the Starlink Standard Kit. It usually costs $500, but you can catch a $200 discount right now, bringing the cost down to just $300.

Get the Starlink Standard Kit for just $300

This offer is available directly from Best Buy, but Starlink’s official website also offers the same deal. The web page also mentions this deal will end on October 5, 2024.

The Starlink Standard Kit is recommended for residential users. The flat antenna is made to be stationary, and can be installed by yourself. The app can help you orient it in the right direction, and will walk you through all the steps to get you connected as soon as possible. It’s IP67-rated, so it should be able to handle the elements just fine.

Also included is a router with Wi-Fi 6 capabilities. While this router is meant to be used indoors, it still has an IP56 rating. You can connect up to 256 devices simultaneously, which is quite impressive. Wi-Fi coverage can be expanded with up to three Starlink Gen 2 and Gen 3 Mesh nodes, too.

Of course, you’ll also have to pay for service. The standard residential plan costs $120 a month. While this may seem a bit expensive to many of us, remember it’s a specialized service for those without many options. To many, Starlink is a lifesaver. It will work in pretty much any remote area, even places with zero cellular coverage.

Ready to get connected? Go get your Starlink Standard Kit. Deals on these Starlink antennas are pretty rare!

The OnePlus Buds Pro 3 are fresh off the factory, and have launched just today. While we don’t typically see discounts on newly released products, OnePlus is one of the few that make some exceptions. The OnePlus Buds Pro 3 actually hit the shelves with a $30 discount on day one. This brings the price down to $150.

Get the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 for just $150

This offer is available straight from OnePlus’ website. The discount applies to both color variants: Midnight Opus and Lunar Radiance, otherwise known as black and white.

OnePlus is known for offering good-value earbuds at a lower price than most of its competitors. Such is the case with the OnePlus Buds Pro 3. These earbuds deliver a dual-driver design, as each earbud has an 11mm woofer, a 6mm tweeter, and two DACs per unit. They are also tuned by the famous music studio Dynaudio.

The case is small, with a lovely matte finish that makes it feel more premium than the price would suggest. It looks and feels much like leather, which also gives it a touch of elegance. OnePlus has added gesture controls, allowing you to swipe and tap on the earbud stems to control audio playback.

The battery life is excellent, at about 43 hours, counting the charge in the case. You’ll also get cool features like Google Fast Pair, dual device connection, wireless charging, and an IP55 rating for water resistance. These even come with spatial audio and noise canceling that is upgraded.

Want in on this sale? You should probably sign up sooner rather than later. The OnePlus Buds Pro 3 earbuds are brand-new, which makes us think this may be a launch offer that will disappear in due time.

Of course, if you want other options, we have a list of the best wireless earbuds you can buy right now. There are plenty of alternatives there!

Most smartphones no longer come with chargers, leaving us all with the burden of having to find a charger to use with our new electronics. Not only that, but you have to worry about picking the right charger, and finding one that can reach the speeds we need to fast-charge our smartphones. The Anker 713 Charger is a charger we usually recommend, and it is available at a 51% discount right now. This brings the total price to a mere $19.59.

Get the Anker 713 Charger for just $19.59

This offer is available directly from Amazon. It is labeled as a “limited time deal,” which tells us the sale should end relatively soon.

Multiple things make the Anker 713 Nano II 45W a great charger for most people. For starters, it is super small. Thanks to GaN technology, Anker can make this charger just 1.49 x 1.38 x 1.62in and weighs just 2.44oz. Despite its tiny size, it is a mighty powerful charger.

There is a single USB-C port available, which can reach up to 45W. That is enough to fast-charge most modern high-end phones, including the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL. It also has support for Power Delivery PPS, which is a necessity to reach maximum charging speeds with many of the best smartphones.

While we are focusing on smartphones here, this charger can do more than juice up handsets. It can also power tablets and even many laptops, even if not always at full speeds.

At just under $20, this could be the best charger you can find. You should probably sign up for one soon, as we’re not sure how long the offer will last. If you want to consider some alternatives, though, you can also take a look at our list of the best wall chargers.

Extra charger deals from UGREEN and GravaStar!

While the Anker 713 Charger is great for most people, some of you will want more out of your wall charger. Here are some hot deals we also found today.

If you want the most power possible, the UGREEN Nexode Pro 160W USB-C Charger has a max output of 160W and can charge a single device at a maximum of 140W. It also has enough ports to charge four devices at once. You can pick this one up for $102, down from $120. The only caveat is that the deal is only available for Prime subscribers.

If you prefer something a bit more fun, the UGREEN Uno Charger 65W is also 28% off, bringing the cost down to $36. It has two USB-C ports, a USB-A port, and a 65W max output. Not to mention, it is one of the coolest chargers we’ve seen! Sadly, this offer is also only available to Amazon Prime customers.

The GravaStar Alpha65 GaN 65W Wall Charger is available to everyone for just $35. Its features are nearly identical to those of the UGREEN Uno Charger 65W. It also has two USB-C ports, a USB-A connection, and a 65W output. The robot design is also much more aggressive and anime-styled, though some of you might prefer it.

Are you looking for the best headphones around? We have a sister site dedicated to audio, and our coworkers at SoundGuys deem the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones the best for most people. That said, these are pretty pricey at the usual $400 price point. Waiting for the right sale to hit makes all the difference, and right now, the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones are at the same record-low prices we saw during Prime Day: $298.

Get the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones for just $298

This deal is available from Amazon. The discount applies to all color versions of the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones: Black, Midnight Blue, and Silver.

We have a list of the best headphones available over at SoundGuys.com, and the #1 spot belongs to the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones. This is because this model offers great performance across the board. The audio quality is outstanding, and it is still one of the headsets with the best ANC quality around. Even the microphone is excellent.

Additionally, battery life is stunning at nearly 32 hours with ANC on, according to our standard battery test for headphones. Turn off ANC, and that time will go up to an insane 53 hours. Of course, you’ll also get cool features worthy of a high-end headset. These include touch controls, Find My Device support, and Bluetooth multipoint capabilities.

Again, this is the same discount we saw during Amazon Prime Day, and it also happens to be a record-low price for these fantastic headphones. If we were you, we wouldn’t think too long about buying the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones. The price might go back to normal soon, and these are still the best headphones around.

Your patio or outdoor living spaces aren’t usually places you would consider putting a TV in, but it can make your football weekends and BBQ days amazingly fun! An outdoor TV has special needs, though, and it can get expensive. You might want to wait it out before pulling the trigger. Here’s a really good deal for you: Samsung’s The Terrace 55-inch TV is currently a whole $1,000 off. This brings the price to a more reasonable $2,500.

Get the Samsung The Terrace Partial Sun 55-inch 4K QLED TV for $2,500

The deal is available directly from Samsung. This specific discount only applies to the 55-inch model, which is the smallest The Terrace option. That said, the discount gets bigger as you start upgrading. However, the MSRP also increases by far more.

The Terrace is a great TV, featuring a nice 55-inch QLED panel with a 4K resolution. Because it is made to be viewed outdoors, it also reaches levels of over 2,000 nits. This is enough to watch the TV comfortably under partial sun. The TV was also optimized to reduce glare. Because it is made to be outdoors at all times, The Terrace gets an IP55 rating, which means it is dust-protected and can withstand water jets coming from all directions.

Of course, being a Samsung TV, it runs Tizen, so you can enjoy all your favorite streaming apps directly. It supports Quantum HDR 32X, and even has voice assistant support through Bixby or Amazon Alexa.

If you are looking for an amazing outdoor TV, you really can’t go wrong with a Samsung The Terrace. Go get it before it goes back to its usual price! You don’t want to spend $1,000 more if you can avoid it!

The Apple iPad 9th Generation is the cheapest iPad you can find in most retailers. In fact, Apple’s website only stopped selling it recently, in May 2024. That said, it’s still a great tablet we know many of you will enjoy, especially at its new all-time low price point. Right now, the 9th-gen Apple iPad is available from Amazon for just $199, a 40% discount on the original $329 price.

Get the Apple iPad 9th Generation for just $199

This deal is available from Amazon. The discount applies to both color versions of the 9th-gen iPad: Space Gray and Silver.

Despite being from 2021, the Apple iPad 9th Generation is still a respected tablet that will offer much more value than its cost. The Apple A13 Bionic chip and 3GB of RAM keep the tablet running smoothly. It can handle any visual task and mobile game without issues. In fact, I’ve used this model to edit RAW photos and never experienced a single hiccup.

The 10.2-inch display has a very nice 2,160 x 1,620 resolution, even by 2024 standards. Its 8,557mAh battery offers 10 hours of video streaming on a single charge. If you care about stylus compatibility, this device supports the 1st-generation Apple Pencil. There’s also Touch ID support baked into the home button.

At just $199, this is definitely the best tablet you can get at this price range. You should go buy it while you can. Since Apple has discontinued it, we can assume it’s only a matter of time before the Apple iPad 9th Generation disappears from other retailers, as well.

If you’re looking to get the latest and greatest, the 10th-generation Apple iPad is also discounted right now, but by much less. You can get it for $321 from Amazon, instead of the full $349 price point. You can also buy the iPad Mini for $380, which is equivalent to a 24% discount.

There's a ton of options to choose from if you're looking to buy a new smartwatch. Some would even say the selection process is a bit daunting if you don't know what you're looking for. But if you're looking for a smartwatch that doesn't break the bank, offers excellent health and fitness tracking, and can last over a month on a single charge the Garmin Instinct Solar is going to be for you.

Razer makes some of the best keyboards you can buy in 2024. And while we've seen plenty of great keyboard deals this summer, this one has to be one of our favorites, as it takes a massive 55% off one of the brand's top-end keyboards. The Razer Huntsman not only delivers a typing experience that's great for everyday use, but it's also perfect for gaming too.

When the FIREBAT A8 mini PC debuted earlier this year for $550 and up, it was one of the most affordable PCs available to feature an AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS “Hawk Point” processor, dual 2.5 GbE LAN ports, and support for up to four 4K displays. Now it’s even cheaper: Amazon is running a Lightning […]

The XGIMI MoGo 2 projector is currently heavily discounted by $150, bringing the current price to just $250.

Here at Android Authority, we’re all about Google and Android, but we know Apple products are great, too. We also know Apple devices don’t tend to come cheap, so if you’ve been looking to make some additions to your repertoire, today might be the best day to do so. There are currently a bunch of Apple deals, many of which bring the prices close to Amazon Prime Day levels. Let’s go over some of our favorite offerings!

• Get the Apple MacBook Air M3 for $850 ($249 off)

• Get the Apple AirTag 4-pack for $80 ($19 off)

The MacBook Air M3 is obviously the best deal, discounting you a whole $249. It’s also a great device, and we usually mention it’s one of the best laptops for most people. It’s super thin, gorgeously designed, and plenty powerful. Some people even use it for light 4K video editing. All mentioned iPads are great, too, so look into those if you’re looking for a tablet. Also, you get plenty of choices in terms of Apple smartwatches and headphones, ranging from the most affordable to the most expensive, all with pretty lovely discounts. Even AirTags are on sale!

The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is still one of the best phones you can get, and it is usually mighty expensive at $1,300. Deals come and go from time to time, though, and right now, you can grab yourself one for just $949, a $351 discount.

Get the Titanium Gray Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra for $949

Are you looking to get a Sony PlayStation 5 console? These are very rarely discounted, so it’s always a treat to come across a good deal on Sony’s popular console. If you’ve been on the fence about getting yourself one, right now, you can save $50 on a PlayStation 5 Slim, whether you get the disc model or the Digital Edition. This brings the PS5 disc model to $449, and the PS5 Digital Edition to $399.

Never in my life did I think I would see affordable laptops get so good. And they get even cheaper when discounts hit! Take this ASUS VivoBook 14 as an example. This laptop is already cheap at $430, but you can get it for only $220 right now. That’s about a 48% discount!

Get the ASUS VivoBook 14 for a mere $220

This offer is available from Best Buy, and it only applies to the Quiet Blue color model. It is listed as part of a 48-hour flash sale, which ends this Saturday.

I am just amazed at what you can get these days for a measly $220. This is a Windows laptop with some pretty nice specs. It comes with a 12th-generation Intel Core i3 processor and 8GB of RAM, which is more than good enough for casual users, and can even handle some light gaming.

Other specs are pretty nice, too. It has a 128GB SSD, which isn’t much, but you could always take all the money you saved and get an external SSD, or rely more on cloud services. The 14-inch screen has an LED panel with a Full HD 1,080p resolution. It even comes with Wi-Fi 6E support. It could be an excellent laptop for the kids, or a casual user.

Again, this is a 48-hour flash sale, so you have to make up your mind quickly, before the deal ends. You have until tomorrow. Heck, it is such a good deal I am considering getting one, myself.

The Google Pixel 8a is already one of the best affordable smartphones around, offering great value at a great $499 price point. Deals come often in the tech world, though, and Google’s budget offering is getting a really nice $100 discount right now, bringing the cost down to just $399.

Get the Google Pixel 8a for just $399

This offer is available from Amazon, and the discount applies to the following color variants: Porcelain and Bay. The Obsidian and Aloe models are excluded, but these are currently going for $449, which is still a pretty good discount.

At $499, the Google Pixel 8a is a fantastic proposition, but at $399, it is a total steal. The device is pretty close to being considered a high-end device. For starters, the performance is pretty amazing, considering it has a Google Tensor G3 processor and 8GB of RAM. It’s also packed with a great camera system, primarily because of Google’s AI smarts in computational photography. We were also fans of the OLED screen, which displays rich colors and deep blacks. Not to mention, it has a 120Hz refresh rate, a very nice treat for such an affordable handset.

We were also quite surprised by the battery life improvements, thanks to the Tensor G3 optimizations and slightly larger battery compared to the Pixel 7a. You can learn all about our Pixel 8a battery tests here. And if you want a phone for the long haul, Google is promising seven years of updates with the Pixel 8a, including both Android upgrades and security patches.

This is actually a record-low price tag for the Google Pixel 8a. We’ve never seen the price go this low in the past, and we’re not sure how long the deal will last. If you’ve made up your mind on buying this phone, go get it as soon as possible. The offer might end soon!

Are you looking for a laptop that can handle your gaming, creative, and all other tasks? These usually come with higher-end specs, which naturally makes them more expensive. Here at Android Authority, we’re always searching high and low for the hottest deals, and today, we have a couple of great laptop discounts for you.

If you’re looking to get a great foldable phone, here’s a deal you won’t be able to beat. Total Wireless is currently offering the brand-new Motorola Razr 2024 for only $79! You’ll have to meet some requirements to get this price, but even if you don’t, all other customers can get it for just $199, which is still a fantastic deal considering the regular price is $700.

Get the Motorola Razr 2024 for $79

All customers can get the Motorola Razr 2024 from Total Wireless at just $200. Only those who meet specific requirements can get it for just $79. You’ll have to verify your identity, sign up for either the Total 5G Unlimited or 5G+ Unlimited plans, transfer your number to a new Total Wireless account, and sign up for Auto Pay. Total Wireless also mentions this is a limited-time deal and that you can only get two devices per account using this offer. It’s also only available in gray, so you’ll miss out on the other colors available for the Razr 2024.

The Motorola Razr 2024 is a great device. The manufacturer has upgraded the external screen to a much larger 3.6-inch panel, as opposed to the tiny window in the Motorola Razr 2023. And while this is no high-end competitor, it is packed with specs that should keep most users happy.

The MediaTek Dimensity 7300X and 8GB of RAM will keep performance running smoothly unless you start running super-intensive tasks. The device comes with a very nice 6.9-inch Full HD Plus pOLED display. It also has a 4,200mAh battery, and pretty fast 30W charging, as well as 15W wireless charging. We loved the clean software, the leather-like design, and the improved cameras. You can read all about our impressions in our full Motorola Razr and Razr Plus review.

Of course, you’ll have to keep in mind that this deal is exclusive to Total Wireless subscribers, which is owned by Verizon. This means the device will be locked to said carrier. And if you want to get the phone at the $79 price, you’ll need either the Total 5G Unlimited or 5G+ Unlimited plans. These cost $50 or $60 a month, respectively.

Total Wireless is very clear about the fact that this is a limited-time deal, and it is only available “while supplies last.” You might want to sign up for this deal sooner rather than later, just to make sure you don’t miss it.

It’s hard to find a good speaker that sounds good and can handle all your adventures, or shower singing sessions. Here’s one, and it is very nicely discounted right now. The Bose SoundLink Flex usually costs $150, but you can get it for just $109 today.

Get the Bose SoundLink Flex for $109

This deal is available from Amazon. The $109 price point only applies to the Black version of the Bose SoundLink Flex. All other color variants are going for $119, which is still a pretty nice deal.

The Bose SoundLink Flex is a very nice speaker for those who want to take their audio to adventures, showers, and other settings that may be dangerous for most electronics. It has an IP67 rating, making it water resistant up to three feet for as long as 30 minutes. It will even float on water!

Our friends at Sound Guys also found that it has a very nice, clear playback, considering the nature of the Bluetooth speaker. It distinguishes vocals and instruments very well, and even has a mic if you want to use it for calls. Battery life is also outstanding at 12 hours. If you care for range, the source device can connect to the Bose SoundLink Flex over Bluetooth as far as 30 feet away.

This is the lowest price we’ve seen the Bose SoundLink Flex reach, so you might want to get yours as soon as possible. We don’t know how long the offer will last, or when we’ll see these prices again.
