The Black Friday rush is officially on, with standout offers dropping across Google and Samsung gear today. Highlighted deals include up to $200 off Google’s Pixel Watch 5 lineup, $300 off the Galaxy Z Fold 8 paired with $200 in store credit, Moto Tag 2 trackers at all-time lows, and the newly announced Anker Nano Smart Display Hub landing at one of its best prices yet. These discounts stack among early holiday bargains across smart home, accessories, and more.
Pixel Watch 5 Marked Down, Best Prices so Far
Every model of the Pixel Watch 5 has been discounted by $100 at Amazon—dropping prices to the lowest seen to date. That includes both 41 mm and 45 mm versions, as well as LTE variants and the special Steph Curry Edition. Meanwhile, Best Buy is offering standout open-box deals, with the Polished Silver LTE model seeing the deepest cut—$200 off list price—bringing it nearly in line with non-LTE variants.
Big Bucks Off Galaxy Z Fold 8 & Add-On Bundles
The Galaxy Z Fold 8 has dropped $300 across all Amazon configurations, matching the steepest price cuts seen lately. Samsung’s own site is matching that cash discount and sweetening the deal with optional add-ons: bundles include prices like $25 for Galaxy Buds 4 Pro, or steep savings on Galaxy Watch 9 or Ultra 2 models. The discounts apply across storage variants (256 GB, 512 GB, and 1 TB) and color options, including the Pistachio edition.
Deal Highlights: Moto Tag 2, Anker Hub & More
Tracking loses its luxury when it comes this cheap: Moto Tag 2 devices have dropped to just $20 for single units and as low as $17.50 each in four-packs. These are about half their regular pricing and beat expected prices of incoming alternatives like the Pixel Tag. For those outfitting a home office, Anker’s new Nano 10-in-1 USB-C Smart Display Hub is down to $79.99 in both Iron Gray and Starlight Silver—within $5 of its all-time low and a solid grab if you need ports and display married into a compact dock.
Other accessories and home tech are seeing early Black Friday flameouts: Amazon’s new Fire TV Stick 4K model has tumbled to $25 (nearly 60% off), while Prime deals shine on cables, microphones, lighting, and more. Whether you’re isolating flagship phones or minor tools, there’s deep value across the board.
What does this wave of discounts signal? For one, manufacturers are lifting slashes early to capture demand—not just traditional last-week-before-Thanks-giving steals. These deals suggest stock is strong, and early buyers can snag flagship gadgets like the Fold 8 or Pixel Watch at prices usually seen in post-holiday clearance. Watch for bundles that veil value: even if cash savings look good, add-ons like earbuds or watches can turn a $300 cut into an even bigger steal when you combine them smartly. If you’re in temp to buy premium tech this season, today’s deals are among the best we’ve tracked—just be ready for prices to fluctuate fast as Black Friday looms.
