Nexus 6 32GB – SALE $249.99 – Amazon

Today over at Amazon you can pick up a great deal on a great Android phone.  The Moto X Pure Edition is on sale, today only, with the 32GB unit down to just $349.99, $100 off the regular price.  That price makes the 32GB model $50 less than the 16GB model.  Amazon includes free standard shipping but you can of course pay extra for faster shipping if needed.  The model being sold by Amazon is unlocked and supports a wide range of cellular bands:

• LTE 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 7 / 8 / 12 / 13 / 17 / 25 / 26 / 41
• WCDMA 1 / 2 / 4 / 5 / 8
• CDMA 800 / 850 / 1900
• GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

For you Verizon users, it also supports VoLTE.

The Moto X Pure Edition is powered by a Snapdragon 808 processor running at 1.8GHz, coupled with 3GB of RAM.  It comes with a 21MP rear facing camera and a 5MP front facing camera and has a 5.7″ 1440 x 2560 resolution display.  You can also augment the 32GB of built-in storage with up to a 128GB MicroSD card.  As the name suggests, the Moto X Pure Edition runs a slimmed down, very close to stock Android experience meaning that you won’t find a lot of replacement apps or bloatware pre-installed.  As one who has been running Nexus devices for a while now, there is something to be said for using Android the way Google intended and this phone will give you that experience (remember that Motorola built the Nexus 6 so they know how to do it right).

In what can only be described as a bad move, Amazon has apparently thrown down the gauntlet on Chromecast sales on their US site and only the consumer is going to be hurt.  In a letter that was published on Reddit, Amazon has informed sellers that they can no longer create listings for the Chromecast, Nexus Player or Apple TV and have wrapped this in the “to avoid customer confusion” blanket.

In other words, they don’t want competition for their Fire Stick and Amazon Prime services.

I will admit that I’m a bit retentive when it comes to my work space. Everything has a place and everything should be easy to reach but equally, it needs to be tidy and organized. I don’t like seeing cables sticking out everywhere and I certainly don’t like my devices sitting on the desktop. They take up space and I already have a small enough desk space.

When I started looking for a desk stand for my Nexus 6 and Nexus 7, there were plenty out there but I couldn’t find that perfect one. That was until I discovered the Kbtel Micro Suction stand on Amazon. The aluminum body is angled perfectly for device viewing while you are stat at your desk. It also has a unique micro-suction technology that securely holds your device in either landscape or portrait mode. Add to that cable management on the back of it and the Kbtel stand is an elegant and simple design that just works.

BLU is running another sale today over at the Amazon store front and the BLU Studio 6.0 HD LTE is one of the highlights.  Today you can pick up the 6″ Android phablet with its 13MP camera, 16GB of storage and 2GB of RAM for only $206.84.  That’s a savings of just over 26% off the regular price of $279.  This is the full blown LTE version too which will work here in the United States on T-Mobile and while it will work with AT&T, you will likely only get HSDPA+.  It’s a great price for a device that is loaded with the specifications of this phone and certainly one to consider if you are looking for a big screen, budget minded phone.

The BLU Studio 6.0 LTE will come with KitKat installed but the Lollipop update for this device has already been released by BLU so you can get the latest-and-greatest Android pretty much out of the box.

If however you are looking for something a little less on the screen size, BLU has several other of their phones on sale today too.

Today over at Amazon you can get a great deal on the BLU Studio 6.0 LTE Phablet.  Regularly priced at $279, today you can get it for $206, a savings of over 25%.  This 6″ display device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 quad-core processor and has 16GB of on board storage which you can expand up to an addition 64GB with the Micro-SD slot.  It is also equipped with an impressive 13MP rear camera and a 5MP front camera for great photos.  While the Snapdragon 400 is certainly pedestrian by the new set of Snapdragon processors on the market, it is still quite snappy and for the price, this phone is hard to beat.
