In theory, the “Prime Appreciation Day” promotion should run until April 10, which is however unlikely to be possible in reality. That’s because the same handset in the same storage configuration currently costs at least $110 more when purchased directly from Woot parent company Amazon.
The outdated Tensor G2 processor remains a key weakness, but at $499.99, you can probably learn to live with that compromise when pretty much everything else is so great.
