Amazon is now offering the best price ever on the latest Samsung Galaxy Tab S9. This 11-inch Android tablet with 256GB of storage now sells for $644.98 shipped. It’s down from $920, dropping by 30% to the lowest price we’ve ever seen. The previous discount on this storage capacity was at $800, and now you can take another $155 off. And just to further drive home how good of a deal this is, the 128GB capacity sells for $699 on Amazon right now – so you’re getting double the storage for $54 less. Over at 9to5Google, we fully explore what’s new this time around across the whole Galaxy Tab S9 lineup.

Amazon is now offering the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 Eco Leather Case for $52.80 shipped. This is down from the usual $80 going rate in order to mark a new all-time low. It’s one of the first discounts so far, and clocks in at $2 below the previous discount from last holiday season. This official case from Samsung protects your Z Fold 5 with an Eco Leather material that is made from plant-based materials. There’s still a more premium look and feel that you’d expect from traditional leather, just with a far more sustainable approach. It protects both sides of your foldable, as well as the camera array around back. Head below for more.

For the past two months, I have been using one of the most unconventional cases on the market for my iPhone 15 Pro. Well, if you can call all of the minimalism that is the Arc Pulse a case, that is.
