Best OnePlus Nord N30 cases in 2023
The Nord N30 is a scratch magnet, so you'll want options to protect it
While the OnePlus Nord N30's performance holds its own with the best budget Android devices of 2023, its build quality leaves a lot to be desired.

Even putting a Nord N30 in the same room as car keys will pick up micro scratches, and fingerprints and smudges display prominently on its glossy charcoal plastic back. Although this isn't the case selection you'd get from a flagship, there are still some excellent, affordable choices to help protect your N30.

Compared to its predecessor, TerraMaster loaded in a new low-power Intel Celeron processor, support for up to 32GB of DDR4 RAM, and launched the enclosure with a new version of TerraMaster's NAS operating system.
This Prime Day deal on Anker's 347 power bank is still up for grabs
Save 20% on a 40,000mAh 30W USB-C portable charger before it's gone
While Amazon Prime Day may be officially over and in the books, some deals have been extended to give shoppers a chance to save if they missed out the past two days. If a portable charger is something you were hoping to grab during the sale, one of the best Prime Day power bank deals is still up for grabs, and it's more than worth a look. Anker's 347 40,000mAh 30W power bank is one of the largest power banks you'll find on sale still, making it perfect if you've got multiple devices in need of a quick charge on the go. It's also one of the best values you'll find, since you can still get it for a solid 20% off right now.
An entry-level device from a storied manufacturer, the 2022 version of the Moto G Power doesn't exactly wow in terms of specs, but it's a reasonable choice among the various affordable Motorola smartphones. Like most of today's smartphones, it's a bit large and heavy, and most owners will want to protect it with a decent case.
Prime Day brings the best Synology NAS to its lowest price ever
You can save a handsome $140 on the Synology DS1523+
The Synology DiskStation DS1522+ deal that we originally highlighted here has now sold out, but we're hoping it comes back before Prime Day and its aftershocks die out.
These Jackery Power Station Prime Day deals let you hand-carry a kilowatt-hour for cheap
You'll never run out of juice with one of these outlet-packed portable power stations
Portable power stations are always super heavy and typically super expensive. But for the rest of Prime Day, you can ensure that your drones, phones, fridges, CPAP machines, and other home appliances keep running when you don't have access to grid power. Some even offer heavy discounts on accompanying solar panels, so you'll never need to plug them into the wall.
Motorola Sound MA1 vs. AAWireless: Android Auto without wires
These devices will change how you use Android Auto
If you regularly rely on your smartphone to provide music and navigation in your car, then there’s little doubt that Android Auto is the best way to go about this. Rather than docking your phone somewhere on your dashboard, you can tuck it away safely and rely on a more readable and intuitive interface directly on your car’s infotainment screen.
Check out these excellent USB-C chargers on sale for Prime Day
These are the chargers you need to top-up your shiny new gadgets
The best mid-range and flagship phones no longer ship with a bundled charger. It was a trend that Apple started with the iPhone 12 in 2020 and was quickly adopted by Android manufacturers. So, if you are getting a new Android phone or tablet this Prime Day, you must also buy a new charger. The good news is that Amazon has heavily discounted some of our favorite wall chargers, power strips, and power banks, making it a good time to pick one up. Check out our favorite Prime Day charger deals below.
Upgrade your car to wireless Android Auto with these 2 big Prime Day deals
AAWireless or Motorola's MA1 dongle — the choice (and the savings) is yours
It's summertime, and you know what that means. Whether you're headed up to the lake house this weekend or taking a cross-country trip, it's time to hit the road for some much-earned vacation time. You'll need all sorts of things for a successful road trip — snacks first and foremost — but your phone is by far the most vital travel tool you can keep in your back pocket. Of course, you shouldn't (and legally can't) use your phone while driving, and that's where Android Auto comes in.
Why Anker’s 2-in-1 charger and battery pack is a must-buy this Prime Day
I have a charger and battery combo just like that, and it makes traveling so much easier
Two-in-one devices often offer a poor compromise rather than a good solution for all use cases they want to hit. Dual-purpose devices like the Microsoft Surface and other tablet-laptop hybrids are a good example, especially with Windows on them. There is one category where I’m convinced that, if executed correctly, they offer the best of both worlds: 2-in-1 chargers and battery packs. One such device is currently on sale for Prime Day: The Anker 521 PowerCore Fusion, down to $35 for a limited time, perfect if you are planning a vacation this year.
Serious storage savings: microSD cards up to 25% off for Prime Day
Tired of seeing your phone's storage full? Here are some great PNY microSD cards on sale for Prime Day.
Running out of storage on your smartphone is the most frustrating experience, especially when taking pictures or downloading new apps. Typically, buying the higher internal storage capacity on some of the best Android phones will increase the price. Still, if you have a phone with expandable storage, you can buy a microSD card to help alleviate some pressure on the internal storage struggle. Although microSD cards can also be a little expensive, Amazon Prime Day has slashed the prices of some incredible PNY cards, which are some of the best microSD for Android devices you can buy.
Synology's DiskStation DS923+ NAS is at an all-time low just for Prime Day
Save more than $100 on Synology's newest four-bay NAS
Synology is responsible for one of the best NAS ecosystems available. The company's enclosures are well-built and offer good specifications for the price, but it's the DiskStation Manager (DMS) operating system that really makes the DiskStation catalog of NAS truly shine above the competition. Those who have had the pleasure of using an OS such as Windows, macOS, or Linux for extended periods will feel right at home when using a Synology NAS like the DiskStation DS923+.
TerraMaster's best NAS for Plex is discounted for Prime Day
Save $100 on the best NAS from TerraMaster for running Plex Media Server
Creating your very own Plex Media Server is a great way to catalog, stream, and enjoy purchased media content, be it music, shows, or movies. To make the most out of Plex, it's important to consider just how much media you have available to store, what kind of processing power you'll need for transcoding (if at all), and how many people will be accessing the server. The TerraMaster F4-423 is one of the more affordable Intel-powered four-bay NAS options from the company with 2.5GbE networking and other highlights that make it a powerful enclosure.
The Amazon Echo Auto (2022) gets a much-awaited discount before Prime Day
