Woot is offering the first considerable discount on Samsung’s new Galaxy Buds Pro wireless headsets that were introduced a few months ago along with Galaxy S21 phones. Originally at $ 200, they cost $ 170 and you can choose from three colors: violet, silver or black. Samsung makes some truly wireless headset sets that look similar, but these have the best sound quality the company has ever achieved.
Some other advantages seen in Chris Welch’s analysis include a useful voice detection feature to automatically mute music and switch from active noise cancellation to ambient mode when you start speaking so you can hear yourself. They also have IPX7 protection against water and sweat (they are suitable for exercise) and enhanced microphones for chatting on calls.

Samsung’s Galaxy Buds Pro has a mix of technology found in Buds Plus and Buds Live, with the best sound quality the company has ever achieved.
If you are looking for a Wi-Fi network system that operates with a tri-band configuration and dedicated backhaul to keep things fast, even when you have a lot of devices connected, check out this other offer at Woot. It is in Netgear’s state-of-the-art three-piece Orbi system. Originally priced at $ 600, it costs $ 320 now. They do not support Wi-Fi 6 that many devices can take advantage of today, but they are still very fast and capable.
Each AC3000 unit boasts a 2.4 GHz band and two 5 GHz bands with MU-MIMO support to handle streaming to multiple devices simultaneously, so network congestion shouldn’t be an issue. And, unlike some competitors in this price range, each of the two satellites that come with the main Orbi router has two Ethernet ports, in case you want to connect any of your technology directly around the house.

You can even get a $ 20 gift card included with the purchase of a Nintendo Switch Lite console at various stores. It costs $ 200, and since Nintendo rarely gives discounts on the actual price of the hardware, this is a good deal as we saw for a Switch console. You can save the gift card for later use or, when you get it, pick up a microSD card to increase the Switch Lite storage for more games. Keep in mind, however, that Switch Lite cannot be connected to your TV or docked. This feature is unique to the largest and most expensive switch with removable Joy-Con controllers.
