WiFi 7 is still pretty new having just reared its speedy little head at the start of 2024, so it’s not surprising the latest wireless standard still carries a hefty premium. Thankfully, you can always count on Amazon’s own products to lower the barrier to entry, whether it’s a slim MSRP undercutting the competition or a phenomenal deal, like up to 24% off.
Sticking a major discount on its eero Max 7, you can currently get a trio of devices $400 / €400 cheaper depending on your region. In the US, The Three Musketeers run for just $1,300, while France, Italy, and Germany all offer the kit for €1,599.99. Blighty sees a smaller discount down to £1,503.96, but only because the set had a more respectful starting price. I recommend clicking the button below to see your local discount.
Amazon eero Max 7
Experience the sheer speed of WiFi 7 technology, complete with wireless speeds up to 4.3Gb/s and wired up to 9.4Gb/s via two 10Gb Ethernet ports.
Each bundle comprises a main hub and two satellites that cover every inch of 7,500 sq. ft with connectivity. You’ll be able to connect up to 200 devices before saturating the bandwidth, as WiFi 7 pushes 4.3Gb/s, roughly double that of its predecessor.
I’ve always been partial to wired connections, which benefit from speeds up to 9.4Gb/s thanks to two 10GbE ports and two 2.5GbE connections backing it up. I don’t know anyone who can hit this ceiling via the web, but it’s certainly helpful for local networking, running NAS devices through your LAN.
There are a lot of benefits to WiFi 7, but one of the biggest additions comes via multi-link. This lets your router handle 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz signals simultaneously without tripping over one another or causing issues. It also ensures you have Preamble Puncturing to better prioritise traffic on a per-device basis depending on the tasks at hand. Clever stuff.
In the event WiFi 7 is a little too rich for your blood, Amazon has also reduced the price of its eero Pro 6E mesh routers. US folks can get a triple-pack for $350, which is 36% cheaper than normal, with a two-pack coming in nearly $100 cheaper. It’s worth a look for wider coverage on a budget.
If you order these powerhouses now, you still have time to strengthen your Christmas connection to stream classics like It’s a Wonderful Life, Home Alone, and Scrooged to name a few. And if you change your mind, Amazon gives you until January 31, 2025 to send them back for a refund.
