Deal: up to $250 off the excellent Google Nexus 9
Whilst you wouldn't know it by looking around most restaurants, you can't really take a mobile device out for a romantic meal, though their needs of battery life and a data connection seem far simpler than a human's. Like any named event in the calendar, tech firms are using the upcoming Valentine's Day weekend as an excuse to throw out some great deals, and we're certainly not complaining. If you'd like to treat yourself or that special person to a shiny new device for Valentine's, you might want to look at the HTC-made Nexus 9 tablet, which is a steal at almost half price.
We've said it before, but we'll say it again: the Nexus 9 is one of the best tablets ever created, and scored a near-faultless 9.3 in our review. It even matched Apple's impressive iPad Air 2 in most categories, though the Cupertino slab probably shades the Nexus 9 on design. Despite a glut of great features and strong performance, though, the Nexus 9 has struggled to sell -- just like the vast majority of HTC's products over the last few years.
The price cut, however, could provide a much-needed reprieve. The base-level 16-gig Wi-Fi model can be snagged right now for just $239, equal to its cheapest ever price. Last time it dropped down to such a low cost, stock sold out at lightning speed, so you'll need to move quickly if you wish to avoid (more?) Valentine's disappointment.
The 32 GB LTE model is down to $349, which is a tidy $250 off the usual cost, and this particular model arrives with a free Logitech keyboard while stocks last.
All of the details can be seen at the source. The U.S.-only deals, which include 40 percent off all accessories, will run through Sunday.
