GadgetReview Daily Deals: Nexus 7 Price Cut, Target Buy 2 Get 3rd Game Free

Today’s top deals should please fans of performance at a discounted price – in photography, gaming, and computing. The Nikon D7000 is a very well-respected DSLR choice, and it’s now at the lowest price we’ve ever seen sans lens. Friends who own this camera love it and shoot professionally with it.

Nice $50 price drop this week on the Google Nexus 7 Tablet, now only $199. It’s the same price elsewhere but you can get it faster ordering from Walmart and selecting free store pick-up. At Target.com, they have a solid “Buy 2 Get 1 Free” video game sale going on this week. 295 games to choose from with hot titles including Dishonored, Medal of Honor: Warfighter, and Madden NFL 13. Tomorrow’s release of Assassin’s Creed III qualifies but appears to be sold out at the moment… Maybe they’ll get more in stock so not a bad idea to check.

Finally, the ever-popular 128GB Samsung 830 series SSD is tied with the lowest price we’ve ever seen on it. This SSD is a great choice for a system upgrade if you want proven overall reliability without compromising performance.

	Google Nexus 7 16G Tablet for $199 (previously $249).

HDTV DEALS

If you’re looking to get a large HDTV with Internet streaming capability built in, don’t miss today’s HDTV deals section. We found a 50-inch Philips set with built-in WiFi for $598. Normally we’d recommend buying a dumb TV and making it “smart”er by getting a Roku or newer Blu-ray player, as this is usually more cost-effective – but in this case, it’s hard to argue for the price and mostly glowing reviews. If you’re willing to put down a little more green, the 55-inch and 50-inch Panasonic VIERA 3D models are both at their lowest ever prices.
