Google announced its latest Pixel 9 smartphone at the Made By Google event on Aug. 13, and it’s now up for preorder at Amazon. When you secure the AI-infused phone ahead of its official release on Aug. 22, you’ll get a free $100 Amazon gift card. The Pixel 9 isn’t a massive leap from the Pixel 8, but it does include some essential upgrades. It wields Google’s new Tensor G4 chip, which is allegedly nearly 20% faster, a completely refreshed AI experience, a 35% brighter display, and a new 48 MP ultrawide camera lens. Oh, and now it comes in pink!

Basically a budget-friendly alternative to the flagship Galaxy Tab S9, the FE+ is a “great tablet for casual users who still want a high-quality, reliable device.” It touts the same tough IP68 dust- and water-resistant rating, a 12.4.-inch screen, 20 hours of battery life, and included S Pen as its more expensive sibling. However, it differs in the CPU, display quality, and price. As of Aug. 14, you can snag the 128GB version on sale for only $479.99 at Amazon — that’s a savings of 20%. Need more storage? The 256GB model is also on sale for just $549.99, a savings of 21%.

While they may not be the fanciest earbuds on the market, the JBL Tune Flex do offer some impressive features for their price. Those include noise cancellation, Ambient Aware mode, bass-first tuning, customizable EQ, and a battery life up to 32 hours. Our friends at PCMag (which is owned by Mashable’s publisher, Ziff Davis) were not thrilled with the fit of these buds and wouldn’t recommend them at full price, but on sale for just $49.95, you could definitely do worse.

If you’re new to Bluetooth trackers, Tile’s starter pack is a solid introduction to these devices. It comes with one Tile Mate (one of our top picks for a Bluetooth tracker) and one Tile Slim for only $39.25 — that’s 29% cheaper than buying each one separately. The Mate can attach to your keys, luggage, or other items without much bulk, while the Slim is about the size of a credit card and can slip into your wallet or purse. Both are designed to reliably help you keep track of your stuff through GPS. If you opt into the paid Tile Premium subscription you’ll unlock even more features, like notifications when you leave stuff behind and item reimbursement.
