The holiday electronics sales season has arrived early, with major retailers discounting hardware across multiple categories. The most notable price drop belongs to the Pixel Watch 5 LTE, which is now selling for its lowest recorded price.

Amazon lists the 41mm LTE model in Satin Pyrite at $399.99. This price point is $20 lower than the cost during the recent fall Prime Day event. The retailer also offers the standard Olive model with a Satin Pyrite case for $100 off the regular price. Best Buy provides an alternative for consumers seeking a specific finish, listing the Polished Silver version in excellent open-box condition for $150 off.

The discount trend extends to foldable smartphones. Best Buy sells the 256GB Obsidian Pixel 11 Pro Fold for $1,480.99 in open-box condition. This price is nearly $420 below the standard list price. Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8 lineup also sees steep reductions at the same retailer. The Graphite model is over $400 off, while the 512GB version costs up to $580 less than its original price.

Tablet and television prices have also declined. The Lenovo Tab Plus Gen 2, featuring 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, dropped to an all-time low of $256.49. This represents a 36% reduction from its regular $400 price and requires a promo code at checkout. A 256GB version is available on Amazon for $269.99. In the television market, the 55-inch LG OLED evo AI C6 4K Smart TV is available on Amazon for $999.99. This price reflects a $1,000 discount from its launch price earlier this year.

Smart home devices are included in the current markdowns. Amazon offers the new Ring 2K smart doorbells for $44.99, a drop of up to 55% from regular list prices. Both wired and battery-powered versions are available at this rate. The Ring Peephole Cam 2K is discounted to $60, down from its $100 regular price. The new Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K is back at its all-time low of $29.99, representing a 50% discount from its $60 list price.

Larger televisions and other peripherals also feature discounts. 65-inch and 77-inch models of the LG OLED are available with additional perks such as free controllers or prepaid cards at specific retailers. The Lenovo Chromebook Plus is 40% off at Best Buy for $379. This 15.3-inch 2-in-1 device features a touchscreen and an Intel N355 processor.

Charging accessories are also part of the sale. The Anker Prime 25W 3-in-1 foldable MagSafe charger is available for $99.73. The Anker Nano 10-in-1 Smart Display Hub is discounted to $79.99, offering dual-monitor support and a built-in display for port status.

These price cuts coincide with the upcoming releases of major video games, including Grand Theft Auto VI and the remake of Zelda Ocarina of Time. The current discounts on the Pixel Watch 5 LTE establish a new baseline for the device's cost in the market.
