It’s time for another Dealmaster. Our latest roundup of the best tech deals from around the web includes a modest but notable discount on the Nintendo Switch Lite at Amazon subsidiary Woot. It’s just $10 off, and you’ll have to be an Amazon Prime member to access the deal, but since the console hardly ever receives any kind of discount, the offer is worth noting for anyone who is in the market for the particular console in the first place. If that includes you, Woot says the deal will be available for today only, and you’ll need to log in to Woot with your Amazon account to see typically the discount at checkout.

As a refresher, the Switch Lite is the smaller, portable-only version of Nintendo’s console: its 5. 5-inch LCD display isn’t as big or vibrant as that of the newer Switch OLED , and it can’t be docked to a TV with regard to use on a bigger screen. But it’s just as powerful, so it works with the same library of games, and it’s naturally easier to take on this road. It’s still well-built, too, with a genuine d-pad and slightly softer face buttons that also make less noise when pressed. Most importantly, it’s less expensive, here marked down to $190 compared to the $300 Switch and $350 Switch OLED.

If you don’t need any new video game hardware, often the Dealmaster also has a sale on Fully’s Jarvis line of electric standing desks, which we’ve previously recommended in our guide to good home office gear . A number of Jarvis configurations are currently 15 percent off at Amazon and Fully’s own online store . The desks still aren’t all that cheap, and they’re generally on the heavy side, but they continue to offer high-quality builds, an appreciable range of customizations, and long warranties of five years on desktop surfaces and 15 years on desk frame components.
