Verizon is fighting hard to stay competitive with the other carriers and today, the company is launching a whole host of new promos as well as a new tablet. We’ll get things rolling with the promos. First up is a $100 bill credit for new Verizon customers who purchase a DROID Turbo, DROID Turbo 2, DROID Maxx 2, Samsung Galaxy S7 or Samsung Galaxy S7 edge. Again, this offer is only good for new Verizon customers.

The next offer is good for both existing and new Verizon customers, and it applies to the same phones as the previous offer. Customers who trade in a smartphone in good working condition and upgrade or add a line with one of the qualifying phones can get a $300 guaranteed trade-in value that’s issued as a Verizon credit, so it can be used towards bills, device purchases and more.

Verizon is also offering a free Gear VR or Gear S2 to customers who purchase a Samsung Galaxy S7 or Galaxy S7 edge. You will need to activate the free device on a two-year contract to receive this deal.

Finally, Verizon is offering up to $650 to cover the switching costs of those who come to Verizon. This can be used towards things like paying off your phone, covering early termination fees and any other costs that may accompany your switch to Verizon from another carrier.

In addition to all of those offers, Verizon has begun selling Samsung’s massive Galaxy View tablet. The Galaxy View is known for its 18.4-inch 1080p display, but other specs include a 1.6GHz octa-core Exynos processor, 2GB of RAM, 64GB of storage plus microSD card slot, 5700mAh battery, 4G LTE support and Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. This is priced at $599 full retail price or $499 on a two-year contract, though you could always break the cost up over monthly payments.

Nexus fans aren’t suffering from a lack of deals lately. While nothing is likely to unseat the Project Fi offer of a $199 Nexus 5X for new Project Fi customers, a $50 discount on the already low-priced Nexus 5X is not too shabby, and the Nexus 6P has a couple deals of its own.

Today you have two different options to save yourself $50 off either the 16GB or 32GB version of the 5X.

The first option is from B&H and includes free shipping and no sales tax as long as you aren’t in New York. The only option they are missing is the Mint/Ice 32GB.

• Nexus 5X 16GB – Black
• Nexus 5X 16GB – White
• Nexus 5X 16GB – Mint
• Nexus 5X 32GB – Black
• Nexus 5X 32GB – Mint

As it happens, the Google Store is celebrating its first birthday and is offering the exact same deal. You can check out the full complement of Nexus 5X options at the Google Store, As this is published the 16GB Mint/Ice version is the only one that is out of stock. Shipping is free, but you are going to be on the hook for sales tax.

Now, lest the Nexus 6P feel neglected, let’s take a look at its offers.

B&H is upping the ante slightly for the pricier Nexus and is not only taking $50 off the price, but it’s also throwing in a $50 gift card. Considering the wealth of products available at B&H, that’s almost as good as cash. Again, there’s free shipping and no tax for anyone not in New York.

• Nexus 6P 32GB – Graphite
• Nexus 6P 32GB – Aluminum
• Nexus 6P 32GB – Gold
• Nexus 6P 64GB – Graphite

And finally, the Nexus 6P direct from the Google Store. You will save the same $50 as with the Nexus 5X and, at the moment, you will still eligible for a $50 credit towards a Huawei Watch as well. Check out the full list of Nexus 6P options on the Google Store. The two big differences are the 128GB option that B&H doesn’t carry and the Frost option.
