'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?
ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.
When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.
ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards. If we have made an error or published misleading information, we will correct or clarify the article. If you see inaccuracies in our content, please report the mistake via this form.
Save 30% on all Nomad Goods accessories with Black Friday sale
Nomad Goods makes all kinds of accessories for different phones, computers and smartwatches. Most of the company's gear carries a premium price, but right now, you can save 30% off anything and everything on the site during its Black Friday sale. The sale runs through Nov. 29. Some items are already back-ordered or sold out, so don't wait too much longer to check the sale.
You don't need a promotional code or anything at checkout -- Nomad Goods has already applied the discount on everything from the AirTag Leather Loop to a Horween Leather Card Wallet.
Even though Nomad Goods primarily has accessories for Apple products, the company does have some Pixel phone cases and wireless charging pads. I reviewed the Base Station Pro, a wireless charging pad that can handle three devices at the same time across the full surface of the pad. In other words, it doesn't matter where you place your devices -- the pad identifies your device and starts charging it. It's normally $199, but the 30% off takes it down to $139. Not a bad deal.
The Nomad Base Station Pro.
I'm also a big fan of Nomad's Kevlar and Sport cables. I've been using one of the 3-meter USB-C Kevlar cables for over a year now, and it hasn't shown any signs of wear and tear.
Nomad Goods also has an Outlet section of its website where older accessories and products are receiving bigger discounts at up to 80% off.
