This year’s new holiday season releases might seem an age away, but retailers are already cutting prices in anticipation of upcoming products.
With new Nexus devices widely rumoured to be just over the horizon, Google’s Nexus 9 is now being heavily discounted.
What’s more, the 32GB version is also discounted, now retailing at £300 instead of the £400 R.R.P.
You can purchase the formidable Google-powered slate at its new price over at Amazon and Argos, although Google hasn’t changed the tablet’s sticker on its own site just yet, as noted by Engadget.
The deal comes just days after another Google device, last year’s Nexus 6, had its price cut from £479 to £304.

We gave the Nexus 9 an 8/10 score when we reviewed it last year, praising its large, sharp screen, powerful GPU, and impressive battery life.
The HTC-built tablet, for those who’ve forgotten, is an 8.9-incher with a 4:3 aspect ratio. It uses an IPS LCD display with a 2048 x 1536 pixel resolution.
At its heart sits an Nvidia Tegra K1 processor, which is packed alongside 2GB of RAM, BoomSound stereo speakers, an 8-megapixel camera, and a front-facing 1.6-megapixel shooter to boot.
Of course, with it being a Nexus device, it also runs on Google’s own Android 5.0 Lollipop operating system.
