Google's Pixel 7 is on sale for $499, plus the rest of the week's best tech deals

It's Friday, which means it's time for another roundup of the week's best tech deals. Today we're seeing good prices on Google's Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro phones, a couple of all-time lows on the 10.2-inch iPad and iPad mini and a sweeping sale on Nintendo Switch games, among other discounts on gadgets and gear we like. Here are the best tech deals from this week that you can still get today.We gave Google's Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro review scores of 90 and 92, respectively, last year, calling them "the best bargain in flagship phones" along the way. Both handsets are back on sale this week, with the 6.3-inch Pixel 7 down to $499 and the 6.7-inch Pixel 7 Pro available for $749. We've seen the phones hit these prices multiple times over the past year, and neither represents an absolute low, but they're still roughly $60 and $90 lower than the average street price we've seen in recent months. Either way, you're getting top-notch cameras, pleasing build quality and a clean version of Android with regular updates, though there are faster flagships out there for more money. If you're on a tighter budget, the 6.1-inch Pixel 6a is smaller, lacks the Pixel 7's faster refresh rate and has a lesser camera, but it's otherwise similar enough to remain a strong value at its current sale price of $349.For those who aren't totally overwhelmed by their gaming backlog, Nintendo is running a "New Year Sale" at its online store that includes a number of discounts on digital Switch games we...
