Delivery times are short, so get in on the Amazon deals now

Share

With the 2021 holidays rapidly approaching, so are online shopping deadlines. Online retailers are still running some excellent deals on some of the top devices for the year. There are less than two weeks before the gift-giving begins, and the shipping delays are building up. All the major courier services in the U.S. are backed up with deliveries, and it is pushing the deadlines to get your packages delivered before the holidays up. That’s why we’re here to get you these last-minute Amazon shopping deals before it’s too late.

Each of the services put together a helpful info page to help you better plan when you’ll need to ship your package by: USPS, FedEX, and UPS.

Using these dates can help when you’re shopping from your favorite online retailers for the best Google Assistant speakers, Fire tablets, streaming devices, Alexa speakers, Android smartwatches, and more. Just be sure not to wait too long, or you’ll run out of time. There are some excellent deals running right now, and if you hurry, you can still get everything delivered on time.

Amazon offers some fantastic devices, and while many times we think of Alexa smart speakers like the Echo Dot or the Echo Show 10 in terms of its products, the Fire Stick 4K streaming device and the Fire HD 8 tablet are also items to keep in mind as gifts during the holiday season. Outside of Amazon products, we’re still seeing some incredible deals on Samsung devices like the Galaxy Z Flip 3, Galaxy Watch 4, and more. So, don’t hesitate — get going before it’s too late to get them shipped in time.

samsung-galaxy-z-flip-3-open.png

$800 at Best Buy

Save $200: $200 off a foldable phone this good and this new is easily too good of a deal to pass up. It’s available on all four colors at the moment, but we really don’t see this lasting much longer without a trade-in.

Hop on the foldable phone bandwagon for less than any traditional flagship this Cyber Monday with the Galaxy Z Flip 3. With added durability, water resistance, and Samsung’s polished One UI software, this is the best foldable experience to be had today.

Samsung Galaxy S21 series (save up to $800)

Free w/trade in at Verizon
From $800 (S21+ and S21 Ultra only)

Featuring the vividly colorful 120Hz screens, phenomenal cameras, and Samsung’s uniquely polished One UI software — which is getting Android 12 right now — the Galaxy S21 is an excellent phone with three more years of security updates ahead of it. Trade-in values have been greatly enhanced both at the carriers and Samsung.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 | Up to $40 off

From $240 at Samsung

From $240 at Walmart

You can get $50 off the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 in all colors, sizes, and configurations at almost every major retailer this Cyber Monday. The watch already comes with a silicone Sport band in-box, but Samsung will give you a free band in one of three Sport styles or Hybrid Leather.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic | Up to $40 off

From $310 at Samsung

From $310 at Best Buy
From $310 at Walmart

If you prefer a premium design with a traditional aesthetic, you might be drawn to the stainless steel Galaxy Watch 4 Classic models. The Classic comes with the Ridge-Sport band, but I highly recommend taking advantage of Samsung’s free band to grab either Hybrid Leather or the normal Sport, which tucks under for a cleaner look and doesn’t need loops to corral the excess.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 | Up to $150 off

Upgrade to a 12.4-inch AMOLED display for the best visual quality for all your streaming, gaming, and productivity needs. It also gives you a larger 10,090 mAh battery and in-screen fingerprint sensor, though the processor and RAM are the same. It’s a premium device at a lower price than usual.

From $430 at Amazon (4GB/64GB)
From $470 at Best Buy (6GB/128GB)
From $430 at Samsung (6GB/256GB)

The 2021 Fan Edition tablet isn’t as fast as the other S7 tablets, but it has a massive 12.4-inch display for much less than the smaller S7, plus amazing battery life. The best discount is on the model with 6GB of RAM, which will help the mid-range tablet handle more processor-intensive tasks like DeX mode.
