Prime Day is almost over, but you shouldn’t miss these 8 deals under $50
by Samuel Contreras · Android PoliceOnce again, Amazon Prime Day is offering a wide range of discounts on phones and tablets. While getting any new tech is fun, it can be much more fun with the right accessories. There are still a lot of deals available, and if you know what you’re looking for, you can save a lot on stocking stuffers like chargers, cables, and Bluetooth speakers. You could also get a USB-C hub to get the most out of your work laptop as you work from home.
You may also need some accessories to make the most of your Prime Day purchases. For instance, if you get a new phone, you might want to keep it charged with a powerful, fast charger and even a portable power bank. Many new phones only come with a USB-C cable in the box, meaning you’ll need to provide your own power brick. Luckily, Prime Day has no shortage of charging accessories, so you can take as many pictures or download as many apps as you want when you get your new phone without worrying about running out of juice.
