The Google Pixel Tablet is way more enticing when this deal is applied
Someone holding the Google Pixel Tablet outside. Its screen is turned on.

The Google Pixel Tablet has had a rough go of it. In the past half year we learned of a Google Pixel Tablet 2 that seems to have died in conception, which could very well mean that the original Pixel Tablet will be the last of its kind, at least until a revamp of the line inevitably comes out.

Even the original seemed too confusing at its high original price. But now the price for the tablet alone is $399 and, after a $100 discount, the tablet is down to just $299. Though obvious from a mathematical standpoint, there's a lot psychologically going on when you drop the price from $399 to $299. This is one of those tablet deals that gives a product an entirely new perspective — and others, too, as stock is already limited on Amazon. So, that's what we need to ask, is the Pixel Tablet worth buying now that it is heavily discounted?

“One of the best folding phones,” the Razr Plus, just got a $200 discount
The Motorola Razr Plus 2024 sitting by some green plants.

Folding phones are starting to get more and more tempting with each passing year. And no, it's not an appeal to tradition or trying to get back to the simplicity of 2004 — our listing of the best folding phones is filled with modern, accessible phones here in 2025. Today the Motorola Razr Plus 2024 is on sale, down to $800 from $1,000. That's a savings of $200 on a phone our reviewer called "one of the best folding phones I've ever used."

Beware, this is part of Motorola's tax season sale, which doesn't have a designated end. Tax day is on Tuesday, April 15, so you can't really expect the deal to go on much longer than that. If you want to save on a super nice folding phone and take advantage of one of the best phone deals going on right now, be sure to tap the button below. Or, keep reading to learn why our reviewer was so mystified by the Motorola Razr Plus 2024.
