This Motorola Razr Plus deal cuts the price by $200

Foldable phones have become a lot bigger in the past few years after Samsung spearheaded the charge with the Fold and Flip phones. Of course, it's still a relatively new market and tech, so if you've been considering grabbing one, then you know that they can be quite expensive, especially since they are some of the best phones out there. Luckily, you can get a pretty solid $200 discount on this Motorola Razer Plus, bringing it down to a more affordable $800 and giving you access to a great foldable phone experience.

Why you should buy the Motorola Razr Plus
While the Motorola Razr Plus may not seem like a cheap option compared to something like the Samsung Z Flip 6, it actually is, given that it's a more premium version of the standard Motorola Razr. In fact, when we got our hands on it we felt that it was ". . . a phenomenal phone. It's fun, well-made, and one of the best foldables you can buy." Ironically, one of its biggest downsides was the price, which is very much rectified with the $200 that this deal comes with.

Amazon’s cheap deal on this forgotten Apple Watch makes it one to remember
The Apple Watch SE 2 on a man's wrist.

Amazon is offering just about the cheapest way to get a recent Apple Watch on your wrist during its Prime Big Deals Days 2024 promotion, with a model you may have forgotten existed. You can buy a second-generation Apple Watch SE in various colors and with a choice of bands for $170 if you version or $200 if you . If you've wondered what life with an Apple Watch is like, now is the time to find out.

It’s not the latest Apple Watch Series 10 model, but it’s about half its price, and although it doesn't have the same specifications, when that kind of saving is involved, there are some acceptable sacrifices. The second-generation Apple Watch SE was released in 2022, and with several more expensive models launched since then and no replacement from Apple, it has stopped being part of the conversation. However, that's unfair as the SE 2 has an aluminum case, Ion-X protective glass, a nylon composite case back, a heart rate sensor, an OLED screen, and a battery that should last at least a day with normal use.
