Arguably one of the best products in Google’s lineup, the Chromecast is still a hot seller with buyers in 2016. The already-affordable device is even cheaper on Black Friday, since most retailers are taking $10 off the second-gen Chromecast model so you’d end up paying $25 for the device. And no, you don’t necessarily need the 4K-ready Chromecast Ultra just yet, since the “old” model is more than enough to let you beam content to your HDTV. But you might as well go for the Ultra right now, considering the amazing deal Google has lined up for you, giving you the perfect excuse to buy one this holiday season.

DEAL ALERT: The best Black Friday sale of the year is happening right now!

Google will get you three months of free HBO Now with your Chromecast purchase. Three months of HBO Now would normally cost you $45, so this is definitely one offer to take advantage of. The best part of it is that the $69 Chromecast Ultra is also included in the promotion. Yes, the device is more expensive, but you’d still save $45 on HBO Now so it definitely pays off.

Need time to think it over? Well, then there’s no need to hurry. Google’s Chromecast promo will run through December 24th, so just make sure you order a device directly from the Google Play Store when you make up your mind. Once that’s done, you’ll have until January 8th to claim the HBO Now deal, and then you’ll have three months to decide if you want to start paying for access to HBO Now or cancel the streaming service before the free trial is up.
