Thursday deals: Apple 16-inch MacBook Pro $250 off, AmazonBasics tech sale from $5, HomeKit plugs, more

Take $250 off Apple’s new 16-inch MacBook Pro in the latest 9to5Toys Lunch Break, plus a new AmazonBasics tech sale from $5 and more. Head below for all of our top picks.

Apple 16-inch MacBook Pro is $250 off

Amazon is taking $250 off Apple’s new 16-inch MacBook Pro with the upgraded i9 model falling to $2,549. Free shipping is available for all. Today’s deal is a match of the Amazon all-time low price and our previous mention. Apple’s new 16-inch MacBook Pro sports a completely redesigned ‘Magic’ keyboard alongside a larger 3072×1920 display. There’s up to 512GB worth of SSD storage on this model. You’ll also find the usual four Thunderbolt 3 ports, up to 64GB worth of RAM, and a redesigned Touch Bar with physical escape and power buttons. We recently went hands-on with Apple’s latest release, detailing all of its best features and more. I picked up a 16-inch MacBook Pro shortly after release, and have to agree, it’s the best MacBook Apple has made in years.

AmazonBasics tech sale starts at $5

Amazon is back with its annual last-minute AmazonBasics tech sale, including new all-time lows on budget-friendly accessories that are great for stocking stuffers. Free shipping is available for Prime members or in orders over $25. While there are a number of gifts for techies, it’s also a great time to take advantage of discounted pricing and grab new charging gear, Mac accessories, and more for yourself starting at $5.

Smart plug deals from $10

Amazon offers the iHome ISP6X Wi-Fi Smart Plug with HomeKit support for $20.98. For comparison, it typically sells for up to $30 at Best Buy and today’s offer is the second-best we’ve tracked in 2019. With support for nearly every smart home platform, including HomeKit, Alexa, and Google Assistant, this plug is ideal for any setup. Best of all? It only blocks one outlet at a time. More deals can be found here from $10.

DJI Osmo Pocket offers smooth video stabilization for $275

Amazon offers the DJI Osmo Pocket Handheld Camera for $275. This offer is also available over at Walmart. Regularly up to $399, today’s deal is $34 less than official DJI Black Friday pricing and one of the best offers we’ve tracked at Amazon. DJI Osmo Pocket delivers buttery smooth image stabilization thanks to its 3-axis system. Inside you’ll find a 1/2.3-inch sensor that enables 80-degree field of view and support for 4K video at 60fps or 1080p at 120fps. Still images are captured at 12MP.

Seneo Qi Charging Pad + Apple Watch Stand hits $24

Amazon offers the Seneo 2-in-1 7.5W Qi Wireless Charging Pad and Apple Watch Stand for $24. Normally selling for $30, that’s good for a 20% discount, is the best we’ve seen since July, and the second-best discount to date. This dual charging pad makes a great addition to your nightstand, and can power both your iPhone and Apple Watch at the same time. It features an integrated 10 or 7.5W Qi pad, so both iPhones and Android devices can take advantage of speedy refuels.

Up to $30 off best-selling USB-C hubs + 25% off the rest

HYPER is doing a holiday flash sale with up to $30 off their best-selling USB-C hubs. For everything else at HyperShop.com, use DEC25 coupon code to get 25% off HYPER’s award-winning USB-C hubs, wireless chargers, battery packs, cables, and more.
