Woot has an excellent deal on refurbished Sonos Arc SL soundbars, the 2020 model that’s similar to the original Arc aside from not having any microphones. It debuted for $749, but you can get one with a one-year Sonos warranty for $319.99 while supplies last. If this discount doesn’t sell out quickly (which it may), the promotion will end in two days. Definitely a nice deal considering Sonos itself offers the same model refurbished for $539.
We thought the original Sonos Arc was a big deal when it launched. Its slick design, Dolby Atmos support, and strong audio performance — not to mention that it can be added onto with other Wi-Fi Sonos speakers — still make it a solid choice for curious shoppers today. That being said, it’s not the soundbar for everyone. Aside from the aforementioned omission of microphones, which I can’t imagine being a huge con for most people, it lacks Bluetooth connectivity. This soundbar supports Wi-Fi and AirPlay 2 for wireless audio. As for wiring your gadgets, it has a sole HDMI eARC port, along with ethernet. Read our review of the standard Arc.
Other Verge-approved deals
- The Switch 2 has 256GB of storage built-in, but that may not be enough to let you go wild installing new and old games from your library. If that’s the case for you, head over to Amazon where you can get the lowest price yet on Samsung’s P9 microSD Express card with 256GB of storage. Originally $54.99, you can snag it for $34.99, a 36 percent discount. The microSD Express cards used by the Switch 2 are pricier than those that worked on the original Switch model because they offer faster download speeds and loading times. But at least now, you don’t need to pay too high of a premium to double your Switch 2’s internal storage.
- Walmart has a good deal happening now on a two-pack of official 30W Apple single-port USB-C power adapters. I normally would recommend ones from a different brand since you can get more ports and more power for less, but bundling two for $35 is a nice deal. These adapters have fold-out prongs, and swappable plugs in case you require a different plug adapter. 30W is more than enough for iPhones and iPads, and can work in a pinch for MacBook Air models (and, of course, it works with any non-Apple USB-C gadget in need of a charge). I wouldn’t recommend it if you have a power-hungry MacBook Pro, though.
- Some people (raises hand) aren’t ready for the foldable life. Not only do they cost a lot, they’re pretty fragile, although recent Android foldables are much more durable than some of the original models. If $519 sound like a reasonable enough price for you to consider trying a foldable, that’s how much the Google Pixel Fold costs over at Woot. Considering that it originally sold for $1,799, and even its successor (the Pixel 9 Pro Fold) still costs well over $1,000, it’s certainly a big discount. Google’s first crack at a foldable was pretty good, and although the company has made strides with the current model (the 10 Pro Fold is the first foldable with a IP68 rating), you might get a lot out of the Pixel Fold. It launched in mid-2023, so it’ll receive major Android OS updates and security patches through 2028. Here’s our initial review, as well as our follow-up article about what it was like to live with it for a year.
