Recently, another post in slickdeals for $179 got +8 deal score / thumbs up, somehow someone put a -1 on my post, wondering why. Lowest price was frontpage for a $149 lighting deal at Amazon.

I know not for my current speed, but I've been waiting to get any 3.1 modem and upgrade the speed I can get, but you know...covid and limited funds.
I have an older SB model that is working well. I don't really like the look of the round device and think it might get warm in the area I keep the modems (a mostly enclosed cabinet unit with just a USB fan moving air most of the time). I have been able to avoid heat issues with current modem and routers, but some routers have been hotter than others.
So just wondered if really worth it for the S33 or for $20 less to get the SB8200.
Thanks OP for posting! Thanks for any feedback others can offer.

S33
Has 2 ports
2.5 Gbps on 1 port
1 Gbps on 1 port
SB8200
Has 2 ports
1 Gbps on 1 port
1 Gbps on 1 port
Also, other S33 users have posted screenshots with speeds up to 1.4Gbps, it doesn't have the puma chip which is the one to avoid due to multiple issues.. Based on reviews from other users online the Arris / Motorola s33 has the best specs and at this moment appears to be the best cable modem available / future proof for some years.

I've seen it lower and got it myself for 129.99 but this is pretty close
ive been rocking 450mb down for 6+ years. I doubt ill get 1 gig anytime soon
for me i dont think i would ever need 2.5 gb, but id probably get it cause i like new shiny stuff

for those that have a sb8200, i would say wait for docsis 3.2/4 unless you have to have higher than a 1 gig connection.
