What better time to snag a deal on last year’s top devices than with the next rendition being unveiled in a few more hours. Starting today, Amazon Wireless is hosting a penny deal on Galaxy S3 phones through Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint, but if the Galaxy Note 2 is more your size, you can pick one up on AT&T or Sprint for $149.99 or $69.99. 

Contest: Win 1 of 4 DODOcases for the Nexus 7 (Updated: Winners Picked!)

by: | posted 03.11.13 | Accessories, Contests, News

Last week, I had a chance to take a look at some of the Nexus 7 case offerings from DODOcase, a San Francisco bookcase style electronics accessory designer. The cases, as I pointed out in my quick reviews, are nothing short of the highest quality. They are hand-made with eco-friendly materials in the U.S., offer all sorts of protection thanks to solid outer designs, and might be some of the prettiest cases we have seen to date. With textures like Moroccan cloth and colored canvases wrapping the outside, they feel great in hand while holding the potential to look better with age.

So as we typically do when accessories show up for our review, we’d like to give them all away to you, the fabulous Droid Life reader. We have two HardCover cases along with two of the Solid and Classic cases. The HardCover is the thinner profile case without the wood tray, so that it ends up being much slimmer while using an industrial grade adhesive to secure your tablet. The Classic and Solid both have the tray, but one uses the soft black Moroccan cloth while the other uses a slightly rougher and likely more durable, canvas. The cases range in price from $35 to $70.

The Motorola DROID RAZR HD and RAZR MAXX HD are no longer new by smartphone standards, having been released back in October of last year. So typically when a phone has been on the market for five or six months, we start to see the price drop across the web. 

T-Mobile Drops Nexus 4 Price to $49 for a Limited Time

nexus 4 deal

This morning, T-Mobile appears to have dropped the price of the Nexus 4 once again to one of its lowest points. While it’s not the full “free” that it was a couple of weeks ago, for $49 and a new contract, you can still walk away with one of the most talked about devices of the last 6 months. You can read our review here.

The deal is a “web-only discount,” so that usually mean you won’t see this price in stores. We also aren’t sure how “limited” the deal is from a time frame standpoint.

To add to the savings, T-Mobile is waiving activation on all SIM cards and tossing in a free car charger with purchase.

And we likely don’t need to point this out again, but you can pay $349 for the same phone through Google Play and not have to worry about contracts.

Day 2 of the 5 Days of Nexus is upon us! Yesterday, we handed out a brand spankin’ new Nexus 4 (8GB) to one lucky reader in what turned out to be a massive contest. But we aren’t stopping there, no sir. We have four more days of giveaways to burn through! In today’s contest, and for the next three days, it’s all about the Nexus 7. We know how popular this tablet is, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that each and every one of you have had a chance to pick one up yet. Let’s see if we can’t change that, by rewarding another handful of DL readers will some awesome prizes.
