HWZ Deal Alert: 19th September 2016

Got deal, got talk! GDGT! =)

 

With so many fairs and even more new things to buy, it’s been a pretty crazy month within the tech marketplace. If you’re not sure about what to get, come in here and re-orientate yourself with some good deals.

 

 

App Store cashback

There’s a small 5 percent cash-back if you use ShopBack to buy in-app purchases or apps from Apple’s App Store. It’s applicable to a wide range of software and products, and it’s not limited to in-app purchases of Pokemon Go or song albums for your iTunes. There are also cashback rewards of up to S$6 for Apple Music subscriptions, too.  If you’ve been holding back on your digital purchases, this little bonus should help you along. Do note: apps that qualify for cash-back can be found on ShopBack’s website, so make sure to go through their portals

 

 

 

Court’s damage cover package for iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus

Do you need AppleCare, but it’s a touch too pricey for you? Courts has a more affordable alternative at just S$99 + S$40 servicing fee (versus Apple’s S$228). It covers one accidental damage protection, be it cracked screens or water damage. If the damage is irreparable, Courts will replace your phone with a brand new set. Within this S$99 also comes with one-time use of data recovery and one-time use of data migration services. This unique offer is available at any of Courts’ 13 physical stores in Singapore. Read more about it here.

 

 

 

Creative Sound Blaster Roar 2

Big sound in a relatively portable body – that’s what Creative went for when they designed the Roar 2. Creative’s Roar range constantly makes changes based on user feedback, and the Roar 2 is no exception to that rule. As a portable speaker, it supports wireless Bluetooth connection and USB compatibility for PC audio as well. You can grab this off Lazada at S$191 (originally S$329 at launch). Here’s why we felt that the Roar 2 would make a good addition to many homes.

 

 

 

Sony PlayStation 4 500GB

With the new PlayStation 4 Pro coming soon, folks who were eyeing the old set would probably be waiting for that price drop. We found this little offer right here that comes in two colors: Black and White. Instead of the usual S$639, Lazada has it at S$426.90. While this isn’t the first time we found a discounted PS4, it’s actually lower than the usual discounts we found! Do note that this purchase doesn’t bundle the PS4 with games, though.

 

Editor's note and disclaimer: The deals are not an endorsement or recommendation of the product from the editorial team. Instead, the listed items present themselves as a good deal based on the novelty factor and how much of a discount it is being offered from standard retail pricing at the time of publishing.
