Daily Deals: Power Block Adjustable Dumbbells, Apple AirPods, and Herman Miller Gaming Chairs

There are plenty of great new deals today. The PowerBlock adjustable dumbbells (a more inexpensive alternative to Bowflex SelectTech) is on sale at Woot. Traditionally this has sold out well ahead of the end-of-day expiration date. Apple AirPods Pro have dropped back down to the lowest price we've ever seen. Herman Miller has kicked off its first ever gaming sale, with a sweet 15% discount on all of their gaming gear, including their high(est) end gaming chairs. These deals and more below.,

PowerBlock 50lb Adjustable Dumbbells (Pair)

Don't be fooled by the price; these dumbbells normally cost just more than a pair of Bowflex SelectTech 552 dumbbells. Currently woot (owned by Amazon) is offering a hefty 42% discount. They are built as well as the Bowflex and the specs are similar. Each dumbbell ranges from 2.5lbs to 50lbs in increments of 2.5lbs. These sell out very quickly at Woot so if you've been eyeing a pair, you better not hesitate. Woot is owned by Amazon, so you can sign in with your Amazon Prime account to get free shipping.

Apple AirPods Pro Noise-Cancelling Earbuds

If you regret not picking the Airpods Pro up on Amazon Prime Day at 24% off, here's your chance to get it today at the same price. The AirPods Pro is considered one of the best truly wireless noise-cancelling in-ear headphones you can get, especially for under $200.

Apple AirPods with Wireless Charging Case

These are the 2nd generation Apple Airpods upgraded with the wireless charging case that you normally get with the higher end AirPods Pro. The wireless charging case allows you to charge the case via a wireless induction charger OR an Apple Lightning cable (the wired charging case can only be charged via cable). This version of the AirPods has rarely dropped in price this year, not even on Prime Day.

Herman Miller Gaming Sale: 15% Off Gaming Chairs, Including the Herman Miller x Logitech G Embody

Herman Miller makes the best ergonomic chairs in the industry. They're also not cheap, with several of their models easily topping over $1000 in price. Penny pinchers might find it a waste of money, but honestly, in this case you get what you pay for. Many of us could spend a majority of our lives stuck to our chair, it makes sense that this would be one of the most important purchases we make. Today, Herman Miller is offering 15% off their top-of-the-line gaming collaborations with Logitech. This is the first time we've seen a substantial discount on these outside of Sample Sales and employee-only offers. If you've got deep pockets, then you'll save on what is probably the best gaming chair on the market.

$100 Off the Newest Apple iPad Air

The 4th generation Apple iPad Air released in 2020 is still the newest model out. It's the best iPad to get if you don't need the power (and price tag) of the iPad Pro. Thanks to its slim bezels, it has a larger screen size (10.9" vs 10.2") compared to the iPad without noticeably increasing the overall footprint. The iPad Air display also features Tru Tone and P3 Wide Color (gamut). It connects via USB Type-C cable, which is much more convenient than the proprietary Lightning cable.

Available: Nintendo Joy-Cons Skyward Sword Edition

After a long haitus, these special edition Skyward Sword themed Joy-Cons are available for order again on Amazon. They Joy-Cons are made over in a royal blue color with white accents. The right Joy-Con controller is themed after the Master Sword and the left controller features a Hylian Shield motif. Get it now before it goes out of stock again.

The Last of Us Part 2

If you thought this game was worth it before, it's doubly worth it now. Save 50% off one of the only 10/10 IGN "Masterpiece" rated games of 2020. There's also a free PS5 patch out that locks the frame rate to 60fps instead of 30fps, which in my opinion completely elevates the game to a new level.

Scarlet Nexus

Scarlet Nexus is definitely one of the most surprisingly good games of the year. This is an action RPG by Bandai Namco Studios, developer of the acclaimed "Tales" series. It has great fluid battle mechanics similar to something like Devil May Cry 3, but it also has a fleshed out 40-hour storyline and some very impressive character development. Check out our review.

Best 4K Gaming Monitor: 2021 LG C1 48" OLED TV

This is the lowest price ever for the 48" version of the LG C1 OLED TV. The 2021 LG C1 OLED improves upon last year's highly-rated CX model with upgraded A9 Gen 4 processor that delivers slightly better image quality, better 4K scaling, and improved audio handling as well as a new webOS smart TV redesign. I personally use the older LG CX OLED TV as my main gaming monitor, and after nearly a year of heavy usage, I still firmly believe that this is the best gaming monitor you can buy right now. The C1 OLED TV has HDMI 2.1 inputs, so you can output 4K at 120Hz when you pair it with an RTX 30 series video card. It also supports 4:4:4 chroma at 4K and G-SYNC technology. The OLED panel blows away any IPS, VA, or TN monitor in black levels, color rendition, sub-1ms response times, and HDR quality.

Best Ultra-Wide Gaming Monitor: Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 49" 5120×1440 Mini LED Monitor

Preorder the Samsung Neo G9 gaming monitor (out on August 23), and get the JBL Quantum One Gaming Headset for free. That's a $300 headset. This is the first Mini LED gaming monitor we've seen and easily the best monitor in Samsung's "Odyssey" series. Mini LED technology is pretty new. You'll see them in the highest end Samsung and TCL TVs as well as the newest Apple iPad Pro 12.9" XDR display. The cost keeps 99% of us gamers at bay, but for those who can afford it, you currently won't find a better ultra-wide monitor.

2021 LG C1 65" 4K OLED TV

LG has somehow done it again; the new 2021 C1-series and G1-series OLED TVs look even better than last year's CX and GX models. These are considered by many to be the best TVs on the market. Unlike Sony and Vizio, LG now has several generations of updates under its belt, and its well-oiled OLED lineup overcomes pretty much all of the OLED pitfalls while incrementally improving image quality each year.
