If you want to become an artist, you either have to buy a lot of paints, pens, and brushes, or get a great art tablet. And there’s hardly a brand more synonymous with the phrase “art tablet” than Wacom. Today, you can save $100 on the Wacom Cintiq 16 or $147 on the Wacom Cintiq Pro 16, respectively bringing the $650 tablet down to $550 and the $1,600 tablet down to $1,453. That gives you a much better percentage off on the Wacom Cintiq 16, but a few extra dollars total in savings on the Wacom Cintiq Pro 16.
Tap the appropriate button below to see the tablets yourself (they’re technically monitors, as they attach to your laptop or desktop computer) or keep reading to see highlights from our review that effectively differentiates the two tablets.
Why you should buy a Wacom Cintiq (and which one should you get)
Both of the Wacom Cintiq tablets described here connect to another device. On the tablet you draw with a program loaded to the other device, using a pen that measures tilt and pressure to give lifelike art based on your hand movements. Unlike the older Wacom tablets artists first used, there is even a nice screen on the Wacom itself, allowing you to see the progress of the painting or sketch on top of it directly. And this is something our Wacom Cintiq 16 first impressions piece highlights immensely, saying “Your photos will look better on the Cintiq Pro’s 4K screen, but the cheaper Cintiq 16 ultimately gives you the same end result.” Other advantages of the Pro version include only needing to use a USB-C connection (instead of two connections), a wider color gamut, and multi-touch gesture controls. But, remember, the Pro is a “Pro” device, and you’ll likely have a great time (and produce equally great art) with the much more affordable option of the two. But, at the end of the day, they’re both on sale.

You can access either art tablet by tapping the buttons below. These deals are probably not going to last forever, however, so be sure to act quickly. Also, if you’ve decided not to go for either tablet, please be sure to check out our listing of the best tablets for drawing (which includes the Wacom Cintiq Pro 16). These are certainly two of the more interesting tablet deals going on today.

Snag a classy, $185 Citizen hybrid smartwatch with this 47% discount
If you want a smartwatch with old school charm, you can get a hybrid. No, it's not a vehicle type, but rather a watch that combines analog features with digital smarts. When you compare an Apple Watch against hybrid watches, you can really see that there are many advantages to hybrids. If you're intrigued, you might want to get started with this deal we've found on the Citizen CZ Smart Gen 1 Hybrid. The white version of the smartwatch is discounted to just $185 after a $165 discount from the usual $350. You can also get the blue version for $203. Tap the buttons below to see the watches for yourself or keep reading to see why this is the smartwatch deal to beat if you're interested in hybrids.
Why you should buy the Citizen CZ Smart Gen 1 Hybrid
With the Citizen CZ Smart Gen 1 Hybrid, you're getting the best of both worlds. In the old world, you're getting a watch designed by Citizen, a well-known watchmaker, with an elegant case and real watch hands. Behind those hands lies a digital display and the smarts of the watch. It has all of the features that you want from a smartwatch, such as a weather display and heart rate monitor, as well as some fitness features like calories burnt and an activity tracker. The Citizen CZ Smart Gen 1 Hybrid smartwatch has a 15 day battery life, so you can easily use features like sleep monitoring night after night without needing to use that time for recharging instead. It's worth noting that, when this watch was first released, we thought that the CZ Smart features were enough to make hybrids good, but the (not-on-sale) original price was too high. Today's deals change the game and make the Citizen CZ Smart really worthy of your attention.

Save up to $750 on a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 and score bonus discounts, too
Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip 6 is yet another entry into the unfurling narrative that tells us flip phones are back. Today, there are multiple deals going on with the phone. For starters, if you you can save $150, and if you you cave save $150 and get up to $460 in trade credits. But the best deal comes when you buy from Samsung, where you can get $150 off or up to $750 off if you do a trade-in, and a free or discounted bonus item. This can make the 256GB version of the phone just $350 and the 512GB version just $470 with a max trade in. Tap the button below to see this great offer or keep reading to see more about the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 phone, why this is a good buy, and why some of the bonus items are peculiar.
Why you should buy the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6
When we made our Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 review, we were happy with its quick performance and nice inner display, all critical for flipping and folding phones. It has a 6.7 inch AMOLED screen with a 2640 x 1080 resolution and a nice 120Hz refresh rate. We were also impressed with its IP48 water and dust resistance, which is not too much below the IP68 most of the best "non-bending" phones of today are sporting. At the time, however, we did note that the phone was "held back by a higher price" than the competition, something that this deal helps alleviate tremendously.

Get a Withings ScanWatch hybrid smartwatch for just $219 with this deal
Recently, we put out our Withings ScanWatch Nova Brilliant review and got a chance to look at a hybrid smartwatch that brings the brilliance, elegance, and style of a classic watch but also has a digital window. You can think of it like a standard watch that has a digital "complication" (for watchheads, a complication is a part of the watch that does something other than tell time) — like a G-Shock 2100 series, but "smart." It's really cool, great looking, and certainly a review worth taking a look at.
Unfortunately, the ScanWatch Nova Brilliant retails for $600. So we dug into the archives and ended up finding this great deal on a Withings ScanWatch Light. It's just $219, $31 down from its usual $250, and we think you're going to like it — especially so if you don't like the aesthetics of the typical best smartwatches of our time. Tap the button below to see it in all its glory or keep reading for more info and our take.
