Samsung is desperate to make Samsung Pay your go-to mobile payment system, so it has been offering all kinds of incentives for using it. Its latest is a $30 gift card for Best Buy, eBay, Gamestop, or Regal Entertainment.

Here’s how you can get one.

If you like small smartphones that are just as spectacular as the latest phablets, Sony’s Compact lineup really is your only option. And thanks to Amazon and Best Buy, the latest in the series — Xperia Z5 Compact — is now more affordable than ever.

Samsung’s new Gear VR headset is an early success, selling out on Amazon and Best Buy’s online store following its official debut on Friday. The $99 device is likely to become even more popular in the coming weeks with Samsung’s first Gear VR ad now live.

Samsung’s new Gear S2 and Gear S2 classic smartwatches, which were officially unveiled in early September, are about to make their U.S. debuts. Both devices will go on sale on Friday, October 2 — but they won’t be cheap.

If you have no interest in the new Apple TV, or even Amazon’s latest Fire TV lineup, then perhaps a generous discount on the Nexus Player can tempt you. The device can currently be had from Best Buy for just $49.99, which is $30 less than its regular retail price.
