Bought the Google Home Hub during Black Friday as Google is having US$50 off the retail price of US$149.
I did not get the Google Home Hub from Google US Store as the chances of my order going through is close to zero. Similar to the Google Home Mini that I got for Black Friday last year, I got it directly from B&H Photo Video. They have the same promotion as Google US Store.
Google US Store is making life difficult for many people outside of the US that are trying to get the Google Home Mini for US$29 (S$40).
As the original retail price was US$49 (S$66), the 40% discount makes it hard not to buy it for fun.

I have the first Chromecast back in 2013 and the second Chromecast back in 2015.
Chromecast Ultra is my third Chromecast. It retails for US$69 (S$99). It doesn’t ship to Singapore directly, so you have to go through a freight forwarder like HopShopgo.

The Nexus 6P Official Case was out of stock for quite sometime on the Google Store. I have been trying to get it but to no avail.
