Best Buy is offering the Anker ROAV SmartCharge F2 FM Car Charger/Transmitter for $14.99 shipped if you’re a My Best Buy member (free to join) or in orders over $35. In fact, free shipping just rolled out for My Best Buy members earlier this month, so if you’ve been holding off on joining, now’s the best time. Down from $30 at Best Buy and a $25 going rate at Amazon before selling out and dropping to used condition there, today’s deal marks a new all-time low that we’ve tracked at $2 below the previous-best price that we’ve seen. For comparison, the newer version of this adapter goes for $20 right now there. This car charger features two PowerIQ USB-A ports capable of charging your smartphone and more with ease. It also doubles as a Bluetooth to FM transmitter, so your phone connects to the F2 over Bluetooth and then it transmits that audio over FM so you can listen to it in the car even without an aux input. So, if you have a road trip planned for 2023, then this is a great way to take phone calls with the built-in mic, listen to tunes, or just hear navigation directions while on the road.

Reg. $379 $280

Best Buy is now offering the Ubiquiti AmpliFi Alien Wi-Fi 6 Mesh Router for $279.99 shipped. Marking the very first discount of the year, not to mention an all-around rare markdown in any case, today’s offer amounts to $99 in savings from the usual $379 price tag. This is the second-best price ever and the lowest since Black Friday in 2021 dropped it $1 lower. AmpliFi Alien arrives as a more consumer-friendly alternative to the brand’s UniFi ecosystem, delivering Wi-Fi 6 support alongside a unique design. Its Tri-Band connectivity delivers over 7.6Gb/s of networking throughput and added mesh support means two can be paired together. Though the most unique feature surely has to be the built-in 4.7-inch touchscreen which lets you monitor live network stats, adjust settings, and more. Our UniFi Diary hands-on review offers a more in-depth look at how the 802.11ax router stacks up.
