Newegg Mobile (Free)
Version – 1.0.0
REVIEW – “Don’t waste time shopping for deals, let them come to you!”
Do you like shopping for electronics online? If you do, you’ll know that while there are lot of good websites out there, that Newegg.com come is one of the more reputable and inexpensive options available. One of the best features of their website is their “Daily Deals” that
offers all kinds of great deals that are constantly changing. Well now you can easily check them out directly from your iPhone or iPod Touch with Newegg Mobile!
When you open up this app the first thing you see is the “Home” screen. The interface of this screen is very nice. At the top of the screen you see the current “Shell Shocker” that is available. If you’re not familiar with the Newegg website the Shell Shocker is an abnormally good deal on a specific product. Newegg negotiates bulk pricing on a different item like this every day!
Below the “Shell Shocker” is a list of the current “Daily Deals.” You can scroll through the pictures of all these items by dragging them left or right. They all scroll across the screen slowly even if you don’t touch them though. To see a complete list of the daily deals all you have to do is touch the arrow to the right of them. This will bring them up with pictures, titles, and prices so you can get a better idea of what deals are available.
The final option from the home screen is a button that will take you to a page of items that are currently shipping free from Newegg! The list is formatted in basically the same way as
the “Daily Deals” list, making it easy to quickly find a great deal! The best part of this app is how easy it is to purchase items if you find what you want! If you already have an account with Newegg you don’t need to enter any of your purchase information, you’ll just need to confirm the little security number on the back of your card.
The one downfall of this app is that there is not really a way to just browse through items. With that said, I can’t really imagine myself even wanting to just browse a site like Newegg on my phone. If all you’re looking for is a specific item though there is a “Search” option in the menu at the bottom of the screen that works pretty well.
If you’re the kind of person that enjoys finding a good deal and you’re partial to electronics, this is an app that you need to have! The interface is simple enough that it makes it worthwhile to browse Newegg from your mobile device. So what are you waiting for? Head to the App Store and download Newegg Mobile from the App Store today!
